Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 25, 2020

How do you know it wasn’t bugged last year?

Unless you’re in the same classroom (and therefore were left back) you can’t have the same desk, Sally.

Ok, ok, ok. Is it just bugged on my end, or can y’all not see any comics today either?

Do a quick EM sweep

She hasn’t heard about remote learning yet.

This comic is from 1973. Sally must have been paranoid with all the news about Watergate.

At least you don’t have to worry about people and their smart phone cameras, yet.

say something against the government out loud…if they come to pick you up for questioning, then you know you’ve been bugged!

she really has to stop spending time with Calvin

It’s still August so why the coat, Sally?

Well, you’re going to a different class, so it means a different desk.

Check under the desk. You might have been gummed.

I think Sally is a little to paranoid to be a kid.

It probably is, Sally.

It’s possible. In our school all desks were moved to the hall when the classrooms were cleaned during the summer. The desks did not get moved back to the same classroom.

Use a signal jammer. Should be available at Target in the back-to-school supply area.

Sally’s desk being bugged has taken on a new meaning today. Bugs, indeed! Take some Clorox wipes in your school bag, Sally.

Watergate joke.

OMG a comic where C.B. actually kicks a football…

Bring some roach repellent.

Spray it with Raid®. That’ll take care of the bugs.

How will you know your old desk hasn’t been bugged?

I wonder if I’ll have the same desk when I go back to the office.

All the desks have been disinfected, so there should be no bugs.

Charlie Brown should have stuck with punting his football instead of ever agreeing to allow Lucy to “hold” it for him.

Dunno about your new desk, but ask a few more of these questions, and CB will surely be bugged, Sally!

He kicks much better when Lucy isn’t holding the ball.

Boogered, maybe, but not bugged.

Check to see if it rocks. If it sits perfectly level on the floor, it’s been bugged.

That’s a WTF? look on CB in the last panel.

I didn’t know Sally had OCD and acute paranoia.

A valid concern, these days …
