Peanuts by Charles Schulz for December 14, 2014

Popularity is overrated, Chuck. Having a great dog like Snoopy should be enough.

I’d suggest coal for Lucy this year, Santa, but coal is too valuable a resource. Have Snoopy find her under the mistletoe.

But Snoopy shows none of the devotion to his human that most dogs do.

Charlie Brown, Lucy, and the psychiatric booth seem pretty much the same as Charlie Brown, Lucy, and the football. He keeps returning even though he gets screwed every time.

To be a “great guy” in the eyes of others, you have to dedicate your life to helping, being there and making your presence felt. No one is going to hand out prizes just because you’re breathing. I don’t see Chuck doing much more than complaining that no one can see his inner value. Get it out there where they can see it; it may still go unnoticed (and often does) but no one loves a downer.

That Charlie Brown is a nice guy. I’m glad he’s picking me up for tonight’s party. It’s not a party without good old Charlie Brown! Lucy is the DJ for the party starting at 8:00 pm sharp.

It’s the “bitterly complaining” part that those women aren’t into.

For 5 cents, you can’t expect much.

You want to be liked, Charlie Brown!

Santa should forget the coal, and put some oil in Lucy’s stocking. And then set fire to it……..

Why does Charlie Brown keep hanging out with Lucy. If he had half a brain, he’d dump her.

Lucy reminds me of the radio show host from “Magic In The Water”. He concludes everyone’s calls in two or three words. Haha

Here comes good ol’ Charlie Brown. Now everything will be all right. That Charlie Brown is a great guy.

Lucy believes in tough love.

You are not liked, Charlie Brown.

You are LOVED!

The problem is that the world rewards jerks and shuns simple acts of kindness.
