I remember a Peanuts summer camp TV special in which Peppermint Patty answers the roll call with a boisterous “Yo!” and Violet and Patty glare daggers at her xD I’ve often imagined a scenario in which Violet and Patty turn up their noses at P. P. and end up on the receiving end of a “Pow!” from her. If Violet were to try her “My Dad… Your Dad” nonsense on Peppermint Patty that is what would surely happen!
I remember when I brought a squeezy bottle of fake blood to school. I was constantly applying it to myself before lessons. The teachers didn’t bat an eyelid xD I would also sometimes turn up to class wearing a balaclava or a clown-nose or deely-boppers (or all three at the same time). Again, the teachers mostly just ignored it.
Ark ark arf! I am utterly obsessed with Popeye! I’ve read all the newspaper strips by E. C. Segar, and I’ve watched every one of the Fleischer and Famous cartoons many times over (and most of the KFS TV shorts from the 60s). I’m also a big fan of Hy Eisman’s Sunday strips. Do you have any favourite Popeye cartoons? My absolute favourite Fleischer Popeye is Bridge Ahoy (1936) and my favourite Famous Popeye is How Green Is My Spinach (1950).
The jokes slowed the arc down, in my opinion. At this point, I really want development, like you do. Today, at least, we see Francis talking about Nate like an actual friend would, which was nice to see.
Hey, BNFF1! Do you know when Sheila last appeared in the strip? I wouldn’t have thought that she’s still Francis’s girlfriend, but that she’s a retired character by this time, like Shermy in Peanuts.
