To clear this up, back in 1976 before school kids had electronic computers, we had what was called 3 ring binders to hold our school sheets of paper together. Now when a kid threatened to crack the binding that meant to open the closed rings and let the sheets of paper fall out! That was really a mean thing to do! But you gotta wonder why the kid is bringing his school notes to camp??
The Spanish translation in Snoopy en Español is a lot more threatening. In the third panel Patty says, “Tell him to shut up or I’ll break his neck and completely ruin his appearance.”
“Camp” story arcs are usually winners. “Shut Up and Leave Me Alone”, “Has it Ever Occurred to You That You Might Be Wrong (Linus)”, Chuck getting kicked out, and the great “Mr Sack” arc

That sounds very painful, Peppermint Patty.

Patty is not to be trifled with, nor by extension, Marcie…

These days, dimming your Outlook might mean turning down the light on your screen while you look at your emails (if you use Windows)!

Won’t be surprised if that kid’s reply is, “Shut up, and leave me alone.”

Nice to have your own bodyguard, isn’t it, Marcie?

Is Marcie smiling in the last panel? I think she’s smiling.

A dim outlook will make it hard to read your email.

“You’ll have oodles of fun at Camp Crystal Lake, Marci, and don’t call me ‘Sir’ again for any reason. Too confusing.”

Colorful, like 50’s duck tail, smoking grapevine colorful.

In the meantime, Marcie, have a nap.

Stand up for yourself Marcia. Expecting others to take care of your problems never resolves anything.

A dim outlook is guaranteed on your portfolio once the boys from the IRS get through with you.

Marcie is probably smarter than most of the counselors,but she doesn’t want to hurt their feelings
