Peanuts by Charles Schulz for February 19, 2017

I don’t understand what Linus did

what a guilt trip for Linus… Lucy better feel bad for letting her younger brother catch pneumonia

Linus should just make another snowman to keep Lucy’s snowman company. There’s no friend like a snowfriend when you’re a snowman. Or maybe Linus should make a snowwoman?

Lucy has found a friend just as cold and immoveable as she is.

Something tells me that Linus didn’t volunteer for that assignment.

I don’t see this relationship lasting much beyond springtime.

And then Snoopy will eat the carrot.

This was one I could definitely warm up to.

Also…Mother Van Pelt wants Lucy to come in, but, apparently, has no problem with Linus spending the night outside keeping the snowman company…

You can’t say no to Lucy without her making you feel guilty.

Linus, I know just how you feel. I’ve stood watch at Zero Dark Thirty, watching Laundry Dry. Bootcamp 1965. USN 65-95

At first I thought, "Wow, their characterizations are reversed; it ought to be Linus worried about his ‘friend’… " but then Shulz paid it off! I never should’ve doubted.

Can’t Lucy stand there instead of Linus p?
