Moreover, "It's Miller Time" was a major ad campaign of theirs back in the day.

Moreover, “Time” is the indefinite continued progress of existence.

Moreover, although Calvin and Hobbes ran from '85 through '95, Calvin did not age, implying the universe in which he exists was moving away from ours at relativistic velocity.
