Peanuts by Charles Schulz for September 19, 2019

In some Asian countries, women traditionally give men presents on Valentine’s Day, and the men give women presents on “White Day” a month later. Frankly, this makes a lot more sense to me than the confusion surrounding Valentine’s Day in the west.

to Schroeder, the meaning of life is Beethoven music and nothing but Beethoven music

It all adds up to 42.

Give it up. He’s not buying you any presents.

Any excuse to BUY, BUY, BUY is acceptable.

Go ask Monty Python about the meaning of life, Lucy.

Not in the meaning of your life, no, Lucy. Schroeder has no interest in your life at all.

Lucy, your life is a chord in D minor.

If it has nothing to do with classical music, Schroeder is not interested!

Get a life, Lucy.

What will you do to deserve presents, Lucy?

Lucy, you might get Schroeder to give you a present if you leave and promise to never come back again .. but I wouldn’t expect anything more than, perhaps, a stick of Wrigley’s.

Lucy is very shallow.

We all know Lucy is wasting her time

He’s not interested in yours.

In Schroeder’s eyes, if Beethoven never found the meaning of life, neither will he.

Nice spin, Lucy!

Music is the meaning in life… sorry Lucy

42. There, answered your question, Lucy.

Tell him Beethoven was know to give girls lots of presents. That may wake him up.

It’s pretty sad that Lucy feels her life is meaningless without Schroeder.

I have spent a lifetime pondering this very question and after much introspection, soul searching, research, and contemplation, I’ve finally discovered that it’s a hot bowl of spicy queso, a platter of salty, crispy corn chips, and a couple of cold bottles of light ale. #TheMeaningofLife

“No, I prefer ‘Holy Grail’. Ni!”

It’s not a gift if you demand it.

I sincerely doubt Lucy has never gotten presents. She’s just trying to be her bossy self and force Schroder to do something he has no interest in doing.

Lucy: The original material girl.

Yes, but not according to you Lucy
