When I wrote for the RUGRATS comic strip, we weren’t allowed to use the word ‘stupid,’ as it was hurtful. We could say ‘dumb.’ That was okay. The one time an exception was made was when Angelica was interrupted before finishing. It was allowable to write ‘stu…’ There were a lot of rules.

I think Lucy said that so she can get the TV, but maybe his mom did say that… except for the stupid part.

As a kid Lucy bothered me, but I never realized she was an abusive narcissist.
