Peanuts by Charles Schulz for March 18, 2021

And BOOM goes the dynamite!

The truth can be painful at times, but a pile of 2×4s will hurt almost always

Walk away, Marcy. Walk away.

A beagle in need of a medic!

This just confirms that Peppermint Patty was right about herself.

I am just remembering the glass shattering from that one HIMYM episode.

Beagle is in the eye of the beholder

At least in cartoon-land, it is possible to have reality-deniers have an “uh-oh” moment.

about time marcie stood up for herself :/

Does this make for a splintered relationship?

Peppermint Patty wood have none of it.

So now Peppermint Patty knows Snoopy is a beagle!

I’ve always wondered why Marcie didn’t say “He’s a DOG!” Was the specification of race really that relevant at the time?

The Big Revelation!

It’s clear that Marcie is having none of Peppermint Patty’s bull anymore.

poor Snoopy.

“That’s odd. I always thought beagles were a type of bird and a symbol of the United States. Snoopy doesn’t have feathers.”

As one who has constructed his share of dog houses, I must say that is one poorly made dog house. I built dog houses that were designed to be flipped over to aid in cleaning. Evidently, cleaning is not an option for this house. Any suggestions for the new dog house design?

marcie is so mean to animals

We tried to tell you, Patty

I think this could be too much reality in one day for PP. She always struck me as a bit of a dreamer, like Snoopy

Shocking revelation!

so…she DOES realize…now…RIGHT?

At least PP knows what a Beagle is.

A rare bark from Snoopy may set Peppermint Patty right. But don’t hold your breath.

And suddenly the last eight years make sense.

And just like that Peppermint Patty’s world completely shattered around her.

Reality bites….

woof!

A legal beagle, that is – the world famous attorney.

That may be one of the first times I’ve seen Snoopy actually say “woof”.

Marcie’s ruining the entire comic strip!

No. It’s a Sopwith Camel & he’s the ace pilot.

Way to go Marcie. At least she has some sense.

Watch out for an angered Marcie.

Meanwhile the truant officers are now after Marcie and Peppermint Patty, but not the beagle, who has enough problems digging his way out from his destroyed and underinsured house.

Dang I never thought she’d see the light. Especially after that week literally sleeping in a dog house.

That’s pretty topsy turvy way of understanding facts.

Marcie just gave Peppermint Patty a dose of reality. As if telling her the man in the red suit does not exist.

" . . . I think I should be calling YOU ‘sir!’"

The Beagle has landed.

When was the storyline when Peppermint Patty accidentally enrolled in a dog obedience school and eventually ended up in a fight with the cat next door? It must have been before this since the plot depended on her still not realising that Snoopy was a dog, but I don’t think it has run ever since Schulz died and the reruns started.

Just noticed in the last panel that Snoopy has a voice balloon and not a thought bubble so me must be speaking in canine, i.e. barking, rather than thinking his speech as he often does.

About time! It had to be said… It had to be said…

Surprise!

Snoopy’s one of the Beagle Bois?

I didn’t know about this storyline. It’s too bad that no one called Patty out on her nonsense months ago. Kudos to Marcie for bringing in truth and sense, albeit harshly.This wonderfully analogous to the harm and drama adults will cause themselves and their connections when they are in denial about personality disorders, depression, eating disorders, or substance abuse; when they refuse to recognize how “taking back” a lover excuses abuse and endangers children; when they are blind to their selfishness, manipulation, and passive aggression; and so forth.
