I think I did too-except for me it was called “Heathers”, with Winona Ryder and Christian Slater.

Yes, that Mom–always using incomprehensible logic, irrelevant associations (what could be more constructive than a movie aimed squarely at teenage boys with sex and violence?), and never letting Calvin have any fun.
I’ve also noticed that this is one strip that never shows Mom or Dad watching TV (not that I recall), but often has them reading, as today.

I’ve often said that if I’d had a son instead of a daughter, I’d want him to be Calvin.
