Peanuts by Charles Schulz for September 28, 2021

HOW CAN HE NOTICE, LUCY, IF YOU KEEP BRINGING IT UP?!

The old Schroeder roll! Classic Peanuts trope!

You’re clueless as ever Lucy. Haven’t you picked up by now that Shroeder doesn’t want to talk to you????

For someone to notice your silence you have to stop talking, Lucy.

I never noticed that Lucy. On a trivial note, I did notice in panel 1 the piano is missing a leg just under where Lucy’s elbow is. Schroeder must be playing Beethoven so well that the piano is partially floating in air?

Perhaps Schroeder keeps playing the piano to drown her out….?

Schroeder … I believe a stout stfu is in order right now … even Beethoven was ribald at times (check out the titles of some of his lesser known works).

He noticed, Lucy!

You say something? I think some loud, shrill noise blew out my ear drums.

That spinning is only funny when it’s animated.

Not at all. (How many days in a row will that response be appropriate?)

You couldn’t last not even 5 minutes… you’re a failure, Lucy.

Yes Lucy, he noticed…along with the entire Eastern Seaboard.

How can I miss you if you won’t leave?

If not too much then talk loud

I can’t hear the silence when you are talking! Pianists in general, don’t like any talking when they are playing. And drunk singing is even worse.

Did you say NOTICED, Lucy?!!

Until just then, yes.,..

Schroeder might like an introduction on the uses of duct tape.

Five seconds of not talking isn’t much of a change, Lucy. How about you try for five hours of not talking. And I don’t mean in your sleep, either.

In Schroeder’s defense, Beethoven sonatas require quite a lot of concentration

If this is Lucy not talking, what’s the opposite?
