Hello fellow Calvin and Hobbes fans!
About this community and how I post the comic strip… The comics are posted in chronological order on the day (usually) they were released. Posting them to match the release date adds a bit of fun and nostalgia to match the experience of reading them in the newspaper for first time. Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. It really sucked when I missed a day. Only years later, when I got the books was I able to catch up on the missed strips.
Calvin and Hobbes is a daily American comic strip created by cartoonist Bill Watterson that was syndicated from November 18, 1985, to December 31, 1995. Commonly cited as "the last great newspaper comic",[2][3][4] Calvin and Hobbes has enjoyed broad and enduring popularity, influence, and academic and philosophical interest… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_and_Hobbes

Is the mom referring to a record player when she says "78 rpm?"
Yes, different records are intended to be played at different speeds but you can select a higher number for a slower record to play it faster
Yes. The normal speed would be 33.33 rpm unless it was a 45 rpm single which is less likely for classical. So classical music played at 2.3x speed.
So they nightcored Bach?
OMG I wouldn't have thought people today might miss that! Kinda like rotary phones i guess. Now i feel even older.
I was born in the early 80's and I still didn't really know the significance of 78 RPM. I knew that it was a turntable speed, but I had no idea whether it was slow or fast. By the time I was old enough that my dad would have let me touch the record player we were on to cassettes.
this is the one that make stickers out of
