Peanuts by Charles Schulz for October 10, 2020

Yep, but that hasn’t stopped her.

P Patty learned a good life lesson; “The Grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence”……

“Someone once told me the grass is much greener on the other side. Well, I paid a visit, and it’s possible I missed it; it was different, but exactly the same.”(As Told By Ginger)

Different people, different tastes and ways, Ms. Peppermint Patty. :/

I think Charles Dickens wrote a book based on that. “Great Expectations” or something…

I think you nailed it, Marcie.

PP: “If Yelp (Tripadvisor or any of those review websites) were around, I’d give them a one-star rating and a whole bunch of comments!”

Mr. Spock: “Having a thing is not as pleasing as wanting a thing. It is not logical, but it is often true.” (paraphrased)

If I remember, “Chuck” offered her HIS bedroom and HE would sleep on the couch. This is her own fault. Besides, when it rained, why didn’t she know enough to come inside? Plus there was not toilet or shower in the “guest cottage”. —Yeah, I know it’s a cartoon, but this is just too stupid for me.

He has a name, Patty. You know it, you used it.

Peppermint Patty is annoying. She was mean in the original comic, but she was also funnier.

PEANUTS DRINKING GAME

———————————————————

If P. Patty tells Marcie to not call her sir, that’s a sip

If P. Patty expresses her belief that Snoopy is just a weird looking kid, that’s a chug

If Chuck’s kite gets stuck in a tree, chug

If a character says “AUUGGGHHH”, 2 chugs

Whenever the Red Baron shows up, 2 sips

Add on, folks!

I can’t complain, but I still do.

Marcie is very wise.

Go ahead, Marcie. Now is the time to hit her with the “Snoopy’s really a dog, Sir” speech.

It’s not a guest cottage, sir! It’s a doghouse! And Snoopy isn’t a funny looking kid with a nose, he’s a dog! When are you going to face up to reality, sir?

That’s what happens when you make assumptions first before finding out the facts, Patty!

Marcie called it, and it’s not just Patty that does it ;)

she assumed there was a ’guest house?"

That funny-looking kid with the big nose did give you your space though, truth be told, PP.

I’m the beautiful people, Patty. You can stay in our dog house anytime.

Sooo next time tell your dad to rent you a motel room,!!!! Hey you get what you pay for!!!!

Which is nothing!!!!

Patty’s problem is all too common. People form unrealistic expectations of others and then become angry and blame the others when they fail to live up to them.

PP needs a good shrink.

Peppermint is like a lot of people today. Blaming because of what they “think” is true without finding out what the FACTS really are. AND when facts are given, totally choose to ignore them for ‘what they think’ is true or continue to believe the lies they made up in their heads because of their feelings. Who knew Schultz was so far ahead of his time? js

A pity she didn’t visit Red’s house in “Red and Rover.” She could use some good mom time.

Bummer, Peppermint Patty

It’s like getting blamed for what one does in someone else’s dream. :-/

Peppermint Patty fits in with a whole lot of people in our present day. :(

Beautiful people. Now that’s a term I haven’t heard for a long time.

Doesn’t matter, she’ll blame him anyway.

Never get emotionally attached with barbers.

Back on Saturday, I may have been too harsh with Peppermint Patty in this storyline. While I still don’t think this has been Schulz’s best work, I thought it over and see his point. Since Patty doesn’t live like the others in the strip, she not only wants to see how the other half lives, but thinks it might be an improvement on her own situation. There is a still the temptation to believe the grass is greener elsewhere.
