Peanuts by Charles Schulz for May 28, 2018

I couldn’t agree with Charlie Brown on the third panel.

you’re quite a man’s lady, Patricia… putting thoughts into the boys’ heads

Flattered? No. Insulted? YES!

Sorry Patty, it’s baseball season, and as the team manager, Chuck needs to set a good example for his team. Never be out carnivalling late with the enemy.

It’s a trap, Chuck. Don’t do it.

Well, when you put it like that, how can I resist?

No, but is clear you like some other boys before him.

From his look, I’d say Charlie Brown isn’t flattered so much as terrified!

Interesting that she didn’t invite any girls.

After, nine other boys? I don’t know.

Hadn’t met Marcie yet, I guess…

Then we find out that the fabled Little Red-Haired Girl is just PP as Charlie views her from a distance.

Peppermint Patty isn’t exactly acting like a “rare gem” today……….

Well this “cartoon” together with today’s “Peanuts Begins” both provide examples of deliberate cruelty and thoughtlessness. NOT FUNNY!!!

Oh right, PP! I’m real honoured to be 10th on your list!

Another thought. Why doesn’t she ask a girlfriend to go along? Because she expects the boy to pay for everything. I think not considering I’m your tenth choice!

Gee, Peppermint Patti, I am so flattered to be your last resort and all, but I have plans tonight.

Just go so it’s free
