Peanuts by Charles Schulz for May 16, 2021

like Toni asking Brad in today’s Luann if she is naggy

Linus manages to be pleasant all the time, Lucy. It’s his only defense against you.

Better the enemy you know…eh Linus!

You should have also marked the calendar, Linus, especially for those “really down” days!

It is all in how you see yourself in a mirror. Unfortunately Lucy’s mirror is cracked.

Well, that was crabb-wise

Move to Maryland Lucy, we have lots of crabs.

“Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is crabbiest of us all?”

See you in 65 days, Lucy.

Could this be published today or is it outside the norms of acceptable behavior and considered dangerous? I’ve often wondered about movies like Blazing Saddles.

It’s obvious Lucy wasn’t a fan of “Mr. Rogers.”

Don’t use them all at once Lucy. You’ll have to wait a whole year for another.

If Lucy wasn’t crabby, she wouldn’t be so much fun.

I give it two months, but not three.

There’s an app for that

Lucy at her very best.

“Crabbiest” in the first panel becomes “most crabby” in the second one. That’s odd.

Lucy was actually sympathetic up to where she was to cash in one of her down days.

Can someone please write a fic where Lucy goes through her 65 down days in a row, and then has to force herself to be pleasant for 300 days, with hilarity ensuing? Because I’d read the heck out of that.

I don’t have crabby days. Life’s too short.

My numbers figure out a little differently for my chart ; )

When Ralph Camden threatened to punch Alice to the moon it was funny because you always knew he’d never harm a hair on her head. Lucy ought to sit down and watch “The Honeymooners.”

At the end of the year, she’s already “borrowed” from the next 10 years…

(ಠ_ಠ)

I’m sure Lucy’s sun sign is Cancer… :D

Maybe the problem isn’t so much “crabby” as it is “crappy”.

Not sure if you are THE crabbiest of them all but you are definitely in the top 1%……

Lucy needs help.

Now that’s crabby!

I loved this one as a kid, probably because my mother published a routine on the side of the fridge that guided our chores and activities much like Linus is scheduling Lucy’s moods…

I hear a really nice place is only a few galaxies away.

you are crabby after that

Remember to duck next time Linus

How many down days left in Portland?

It’s a down day for sure, only if you lay low.
