Should talk to an expert, Peppermint Patty, but Charlie Brown is also right. Also, I remember they used this strip for 2003, “A Charlie Brown Valentine” too.
Interesting. After being such a bossy nag all week in school Peppermint Patty’s fiery red hair has turned light brunette when she calms down and talks about love.
A complicated relationship. At some point Peppermint Patty began coming over and hanging out with Charlie Brown on Sundays, the two of them facing opposite directions while leaning on the same sapling. PP will seek wisdom or occasionally fish for a compliment, and never be happy with CB’s answers. But she keeps coming back …
Charles Shultz put together a collection of comics in a book called Happiness is a Warm Puppy. I disagree. Happiness is a Hot Dog served with your favorite condiments.
Last year I recounted how I had my own Charlie Brown style Valentine’s drama in high school where I never got invited to the big ’girl’s choice’ dance. I did grow out of my resentment. But maybe we do put too much on this annual event. Happy Valentine’s Day.
Someone who’s never been married can’t give marriage advice. That’s why I didn’t say anything when a friend of my told me he was thinking of cheating on his husband. ¯\(ツ)/¯
The question is, does she want to know about romantic love, or all kinds of love? Valentine’s Day is not just about romantic pairs. People always seem to forget there are many kinds of love, not just romantic ones, but of course, people are just too obsessed with romance. You can see it everywhere. A book, a series, any media can have tons of lore and character development, yet fans always seem to care only about the pairings and shipping.

how can you talk to Snoopy about this, Peppermint Patty, when he’s a mute, little kid?

But Charlie Brown has had plenty of time to mull over the theory of Valentine reception.

Don’t worry about it, Charlie. Lots of people have never received a valentine in their lives.

Charlie Brown is saying, “just give me a small, inexpensive valentine by post, and I’ll be sooo happy!”
Robert Nowall Premium Member over 1 year ago
You gotta give before you receive. Peppermint Patty should be giving Chuck a valentine.

Ha! Charlie is so broken he’ll actually accept a pity Valentine! A PITY VALENTINE!!

Believe it or not, a lot of people sent Charlie Brown Valentines after the Valentine’s Day special because they felt for him.

I thought PP was setting up to give a valentine to CB.

You can still be wise, even if you haven’t experienced something yourself. Many people with lots of experience are total fools.

Love Snoopy going through all the cards he gets from girls.

If I were Patty I would have jumped up and made Chuck a card. Selfish girl!

A Valentine has nothing to do with love. Valentine’s Day has everything to do with overspending and little to nothing with love.

Ah, nostalgia—the title panel has a candy box full of candy instead of half full of plastic divider thingies.

Shut up and give her a valentine, Chuck. That’ll answer all her questions.

“No, I’ve never received a single valentine…”
Apparently, Charlie forgot about this:
