Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 02, 2023

give up Floyd…maybe Sally is in camp?

I’m beginning to think he’s in it for the bruises.

OK, enough of this, I feeling sorry for that little boy. He’s really sweet.

Floyd’s really not paying attention.

Floyd needs a kick to the jewels. She’s not interested. Even back in my day when a guy could get away with a few remarks like that, a girl would eventually fight back. My wife taught our daughter at a young age where to kick and/or punch a boy if needed. She put it to use in 3rd grade. The boy’s momma wasn’t happy…HAHAHA

Maybe she just doesn’t like being called “Lambcake”. I mean, who would?

Well this is what you get when you send your two girls to summer camp and the only other kid in the camp is a love starved boy nerd. Shouldn’t there be at least a couple of other girls in the camp to at least draw his attention away temporarily? Do your homework, parents!

All he has to do is sing a song by Joe Cocker, and Marcie will understand.

All three of them are ate up with it! This arc is getting really old, really quick. Then again, it’s a comic…

Why are waffles so filling?

Because they’re wa-fulls not waff-empties.

If you were to accidentally drop your waffle at the beach, it would most likely happen in…

…San Diego.

What do you call a person who loves both himself and waffles more than anything else in the world?

An Eggomaniac.

Some people just can’t take a complement.

I’m starting to believe Marcie doesn’t really know what “sarcastic” means, but just thinks it good word to describe something negative.

The only reason Floyd doesn’t serenade Marcie with “Every Breath You Take” is because it hadn’t been written yet. Some folks think that song is romantic, even played at weddings. But the lyrics are creepy… It’s like an anthem for stalkers.

[anguished cry] No he’s not!

At least she said waffle and not waffle iron!

Stwike him, centurion, very woughly. ;-}

I think Marcie is enjoying the game. Still a little sadist though.

Sarcastic or not, no means no. “Myeh, but she didn’t say n—”

Punching him, hitting him, pushing him in poison oak or lake, and all other similar acts means no. If you disagree, you probably belong on a list.

Creep.

Marcie, for someone so intelligent, you’re pretty oblivious and ignorant of certain things.

Maybe if Floyd stopped with the “Lambcake” and called Marcie by her actual name, she might at least acknowledge him without violence or threats thereof.

This may not hold up in court. In spite of the physical violence Marcie inflicts on Floyd, she never told him that his attention was not wanted. She should do so in the presence of witnesses (Patty will do) and document the event.

In a court of law, when it comes down to “He said. She said,” the side that documents best, wins.

Waffle slapping was the inspiration to Monty Python’s fish slapping dance. BION

Peppermint Patty is right. This kid is not too smart. He needs to move on

Floyd missed step one (hi my name is Floyd. What’s your name? Then, where are you from or how do you like being at camp) and started calling her a nickname based on a pastry. And that’s how he got here ;)

What if Marcie is right?

What a waste if a waffle.

One little slip here—-it’s been said many times before that the boys and the girls are in separate camps divided by a lake.

Bop him with a bacon.Slaughter him with a sausage.Then get a dog or a cat so you can start down the path of romance

Again, this boy refuses to take “NO” for an answer. He will be problematic if it isn’t stopped now.

… Hmm la-da da da da da da da

La-da da da da da de

La-da da da da da da da

… Oh the games people play now

Every night and every day now

Never meaning what they say now

In their ivory towers

Till they’re covered up with flowers

In the back of a black limousine whoa

… La-da da da da da da da

La-da da da da da de

Talking ’bout you and me

And the games people play

… Oh we make one another cry

Break a heart then we say goodbye

Cross our hearts and we hope to die

That the other was to blame whoa

… Neither one will give in

So we gaze at our eight by ten

Thinking ’bout the things that might have been

And it’s a dirty rotten shame whoa

Read your horoscope, cheat your fate

And further more to hell with hate

Come on and get on board whoah

For your pride and your vanity

Turn your back on humanity

Anyone called his girlfriend/wife “lambcake” recently? I’m dying to know the responses

Waste of a perfectly good waffle.

Just use her name!

ka-whap

Not sure why I’m starting to feel sorry for Floyd

Marcie need to up her self-esteem.

“Doesn’t matter if you like her! SHE doesn’t like YOU, so leave her alone!”

Waffle? A waffle iron would be more instructive.

(No, Marcie, don’t do that.)

At least it’s not a fist this time, Peppermint Patty packs a wallop…..

Stop chasing her, and she will start chasing you!

There is skill in accepting compliments as well as giving them. Try to think of the compliment as a small gift someone is offering you, especially if it is particularly thoughtful. All you need to do in accepting it is to say, “Thank you; I appreciate that.”

Whap me with a waffle and I’ll like you all the more. Your first romantic food fight.

Peppermint Patty knows how to be a wingwoman, for certain.

Shut up and leave her alone!!
