Peanuts by Charles Schulz for March 15, 1981
Transcript:
Charlie Brown stands outside of Lucy psychiatric booth. She leans on her elbow and says, "Maybe I can put it another way..."<BR><BR> She props her feet up and continues, "Life, Charlie Brown, is like a deck chair..." He asks, "Like a what?"<BR><BR> She replies, "Have you ever been on a cruise ship? Passengers open up these canvas deck chairs so they can sit in the sun..."<BR><BR> She points to her left and he looks. She says, "Some people place their chairs facing the rear of the ship so they can see where they've been..."<BR><BR> She points to her right and he looks. She continues, "Other people face their chairs forward...they want to see where they're going!"<BR><BR> She points to him and asks, "On the cruise ship of life, Charlie Brown, which way is your deck chair facing?"<BR><BR> She rolls her eyes as he replies, "I've never been able to get one unfolded..."<BR><BR>
Not that it actually matters because no matter which way your deck chair is facing, you’ll see a lot of water. Is Lucy trying to say that life is boring?
