I would never have lasted long as a cowboy. I was born with stomach issues that have lasted through to adulthood. I threw up three times a day every day until I was three years old. I still get hiccups once or twice a day. Apparently, stomach issues are a common trait among autistic people, like myself.
Unless someone can come up with a better example, I think this storyline is the most silly of any storyline in this strip’s history—followed closely by Peppermint Patty going to obedience school.
I first read Charlie Brown’s dialogue as “once we get out OF the country.” For a second there, I imagined that he and Patty were fugitives on the run from the law.
Insert “Family Feud” buzzer sound here.
