Peanuts by Charles Schulz for November 21, 2023

How could anyone mistake him for a turkey anyway?

Movember is an annual event involving the growing of moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of men’s health issues. (WWW so it must be true).

Very uh, stylish.

Didn’t I see Woodstock’s character in Hairspray?

With that moustache someone might mistake him for a Turkish Icecream guy, than a turkey!

You’re such a good pal, Snoopy!

Lend it, not loan it.

Suddenly I have the urge to start singing Crambone while playing a faulty guitar.

Snoopy’s mustache disguise appeared in the strip in 1967 (thank you, Internet) and in the TV special “He’s Your Dog, Charlie Brown”. Animator Bill Melendez, who directed the early specials and voiced Snoopy, had a similar mustache and it may have been Schulz’s inside joke.

They might take him for a water buffalo…

Hey! It’s Mary Tyler Woodstock!

I wish my brother George were here

A fake mustache doesn’t make a good hippie or Beatle wig.

Going from blonde to brunette in no time flat!

If it’s famous, is it really a disguise?

Hey look… a Musk Ox!

Woodstock looks like a yellow Cape buffalo wearing that mustache like that.

Now Woodstock looks like a Beatle. Brilliant disguise! Yeah, yeah, yeah….

She’s pulling it off.

Screaming funny

Apple watch update, new watch face, 148 animations with Snoopy and Woodstock! Every time I look at my watch, I get a laugh! Any other of you out there?

looks like Mary Tyler Moore

Wo ist der root bier hall?

I think Woodstock might be mistaken for a poult turkey, but not an adult. I have a cousin that raises the babies called poults to their juvenile stage before passing them on to another farm for the final adult stage.

Woodstock looks pretty suave in that wig.

Good thinking. I sure thought that little bird was a turkey…

It is indeed a famous disguise. There was a whole episode of The Snoopy Show about it recently.

Snoopy’s the only turkey here…

I wonder if that was a reference to Vince Guaraldi’s mustache?

And what will Woodstock’s Christmas disguise be?

He is now a hairy bird.

LOL! :)

Or confuse him with a sitcom star of the sixties.

The mustache reminds me of Bill Melendez, original director for the animated specials.

Well, clearly that disguise will work for the purpose stated. In no way does Woodstock resemble a turkey (not that he ever did).

“You must pay the rent”, “I can’t pay the rent !”

I will never, in my life, understand how people that over-analyze, or try to interpret comics even find it worth coming in to read them. How is there any enjoyment, if you cannot take a comic at face value?
