    Well, Calvin’s parents always tell him that it’s important to make a good impression….

    This reminds me of one of the best “Peanuts” series, from 1962:

    Hi Miss.Fit, nice to meet you. Try to focus on kind things that you can do for others, and how you can make others laugh. One good way is by sharing Calvin and Hobbes with others. I’d also recommend using a more positive name than Miss.Fit, because it doesn’t describe you. How about Friend of Hobbes?

    Maybe mom didn’t pee her pants, but it was funny enough to knock her out of her chair. Makes me wonder what Calvin will choose to imitate mom, so dad can have his revenge laugh.

    Hi Miss.Fit. What I meant was that you are not a misfit. Nobody in this world is born to be a misfit. And in your case, we enjoy having you as part of our group. You fit in just fine.

    We all have imperfections, some more dramatic than others. Personally, I have days when I feel like pouncing on others for no reason. :>)

    The important thing is for us to begin by loving ourselves for who we are, in spite of the imperfections. Choosing a positive name for ourselves can be very helpful.

    Have a good day.
