Peanuts by Charles Schulz for February 25, 2025

While typing this post I will not fall….

Where’d Marcie go?

Poor Patty can’t sleep at night ’till her Daddy gets home…

Please, don’t wake me

No, don’t shake me

Leave me where I am

I’m only sleeping.

(The Beatles)

I guess I’m one of the lucky ones, because I signed up long ago and have still been paying the original rate of $14.99. So if it went up to $19.99, no big deal. I mean, a 30% increase is a lot, but I’m supposedly getting a “break” now.

I assume that, like me, other paid subscribers got the message that our rate will be jacked to $34.99, for magnificent “new” features, that are basically the same as what we have now. Most of which I don’t want or need. That’s a 75% price hike for most subscribers; more than double for folks in my group.

Questions:

1.You OK with this?

2.You willing to send an email to Andrew’s McMeel’s CEO at kmelville@ and let her know?

3.How long until this post gets deleted?

After Snoopy, Peppermint Patty is my favourite character in the strip.

Patty ought to have a cup of coffee in the morning to help her stay awake. If kids can drink tea, they can drink coffee. But only that one cup in the morning.

I always feel sorry for Patty. Being so tired at school/work is not only not fun, it’s downright depressing.

At least she doesn’t have to do it on the chalkboard!

Good thing this is probably detention and not class.
