Peanuts by Charles Schulz for November 24, 2024

Finally, advice worth a nickel.

Thanks, Lucy. Now I’ll have to drink straight out of the tap at night.

When I wake up in the middle of the night I usually have the need to relieve myself of water rather than drink more.

…well, she’s not wrong….

if you don’t rinse your glass, you can have a snack with your water.

I hate waking up at night during winters.

I know this comment has nothing to do with the comic and I don’t know where to say it but I just have to say it: "The Internet has gone way overboard with its advertising, as has the Comics page and everyone else, but so many ads – many of which pop up keeping you from reading what you are trying to read. I miss the newspaper days, man – seriously! There – thanks – that is my ‘great truth’ for the day!

The mystery of the bug-flavored water. SOLVED!

I don’t know when this comic was first written. What’s today’s equivalent of that year’s US 5¢?

And “simple” has more than one meaning.

Who new being helpful is so moneymaking.

I was recently diagnosed with depression. I’m on meds (& they’re finally working), but want to see a counselor. I’m having a very beans of a time finding one; I’ve put out emails to a couple & haven’t heard back.

The sign to Lucy’s 5 cent booth in the title panel.

Or store the glass upside-down.

Usually when I wake up in the middle of the night, it’s either because I’m really thirsty or have to go pretty bad.

I’ve always one this. I may be paranoid but that doesn’t mean there ISN’T a bug in my glass.

I think that Lucy providing psychiatric advice is like the “blind leading the blind”. Don’t listen to her, Charlie Brown. Follow your own path.

Or keep a bottle of water by your bedside, or a lidded drinking container

I learned this great truth the hard way. You don’t want to hear ths story, at least not at or near mealtime.

Here’s the GREATEST truth. God loved mankind so much, he sacrificed His only Son for us, so that we can be in Heaven with Him for eternity if we believe and accept that FACT.

“As long as the world is turning and spinning, we’re gonna be dizzy and we’re gonna make mistakes.” – Mel Brooks, The 2000 Year Old Man

“Capitalism sucks.” There; another great truth for you.

An experience I would rather not have again!

Try doxylamine. you won’t wake up until after 6

That was hardly worth the time and money.

thats why I use bottled water.

I do hope he eventually found another therapist.

Many, many years ago I almost swallowed a boxelder bug (or Asian beetle, can’t remember which, our old farm house was overrun with both) that had gotten in my bedside glass of water in the middle of the night. Ever since I’ve drank from a covered glass or bottle with a nozzle or nipple or whatever it’s called. Fool me once…

Found a house centipede inmy glass once…just as the glass touched my lips. Now I keep a water bottle by the sink…closed system.

Bug as in insect or a listening devise?

Words to live by…

One night my wife awoke hungry, and recalled some cookies in a cupboard near the bed. She left the light off, as I was asleep, and was chewing for a few seconds before she noticed a bitter taste, and tingling on her fingers and cheeks. The cookies, and now her mouth, face and fingers were crawling with countless tiny ants.

I’ve always rinsed my glass before filling it after the night I found a spider swimming in my drink

I keep a lid over the glass to keep the cats out of it!

This is why I turn on the light in the kitchen.

Chuck’s wonky face. LOL One eye is higher than the other.

Actually, that’s good advice. I got a drink of water in the dark one night. An earwig was on the rim and latched onto my lip. I still shudder when I think about it.

And don’t sit outside and leave your beer unattended for even a minute … bees and yellowjackets love beer…
