Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 05, 2023

Do you prefer that to “Sir” Patty?

At least Marcie didn’t go for a low blow and say something about Peppermint Patty’s nose.

Marcie’s being quite the snot in this arc.

better than “goodnight Sir”

Meathead.

S—t for brains?

/S

Blockhead!

Poor CB always being called a “Blockhead”. He has feelings too you know.

“Cement Head?” I grew up in a German neighborhood. One of the insults we used was “eisenkopf” or “Iron Head.” We also used “dumkopf.”

speaking of noodles…https://www.foodnetwork.com/topics/noodles

Noodleneck and cementhead are nothing at all like lambcake. The first two reference onc’s body problems while the latter refers to one’s quality of sweetness. Patty doesn’t know what she’s talking about.

Marcie has a lot to learn about pet names.

Don’t call people names they don’t like… unless they’re asking for it.

Charle Brown has been called a Blockhead numerous times.

Please, I prefer “rigatoni throat”.

Peppermint Patty has no problem with the name ‘Lambcakes’ because no called her that. If Floyd kept pestering her with it, she’d have driven him into the ground like a tentpeg.

Wow no “sir” this time?

Marcie is a very unhappy person. Patty should look for some friends who aren’t so negative all the time.

At least Marcie didn’t call Peppermint Patty “Cementhead”!

“Good night, noodleneck.”

“Good night, cementhead…”

I guess noodleneck was the forerunner of pencil-necked geek.

Maybe 40 or so years on, Marcie will wonder whatever happened to that boy Floyd

It sort of fits…..

Good night, cement head.

The 20 or so times, I went to a youth camp, that had cabins and beds … they were always made of wood, and bunk beds for the campers. Only Counsellors or CIT’s would get singular beds and uh, they were never pushed together like this.

One boyfriend used to call me Cookie or Pumpkin. Another one used to call me Doll Face. At least none of the names were insulting or offensive.

Pinhead and peghead were popular in my youth.

‘Bigfoot’ is out of bounds. Well, maybe not at sleep-away camp.

I think these two are Married! ¯\ツ/¯

Walked right into that Peppermint Patty, didn’t you?

That’s Sir Noodleneck to you Marcie!

In one ear, out the other…

It’s ironic that Patty doesn’t like it (to put it mildly!)when Marcie calls her “Sir”, but she scolds Marcie for not liking it when Floyd calls her “Lambcake”.
