Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for August 06, 1986
Transcript:
Calvin: Can Hobbes and I go play in the rain, Mom? Mom: No. Calvin: Why not? Mom: You'll get soaked. Calvin: What's wrong with that? Mom: You could catch pneumonia, run up a terrible hospital bill, linger a few months, and die. Calvin: I always forget. If you ask mom, you get a worst-case scenario. Hobbes: I had no idea these little showers were so dangerous.

This is exactly like my parents; not just my mom but particularly my dad, giving me worst-case scenarios like that.

“thanks mom, its reassuring to know that in an event where i end up hospitalized and end up dying a slow painful death, the hospital bill is going to be one of your top concerns”

Hobbes’s face though-must’ve been some revelation.
