Peanuts by Charles Schulz for November 23, 2021

Way to think things through, Peppermint Patty.

Use what you’ve got Peppermint Patty.

Chuck’s Dad to the rescue!

Don’t go to a barber! He doesn’t know how to cut girl’s hair. My dad was a barber. Once he cut my hair. I don’t want to remember the rest…

Few are “born beautiful”, Patty. It takes hard work to cultivate and maintain “beauty” and the standards change every few decades.

Just wait till Peppermint Patty wants some help on her makeup.

Peggy Fleming had a nose job. You could, too. LOL

SusieB called this one in yesterday’s comments.

In the Norwegian translation, Peppermint Patty thinks she looks like Pippi Longstocking rather than Babe Ruth. Having seen pictures of Babe Ruth, I think the former makes more sense.

The younger Ruth who was with the Red Sox or the older one who finished his career with the Braves?

Looking like Jen Psaki is even worse :.( I feel for you, brah. Seriously. :.(

I remember reading a semi-biography or retrospective of Charles Schulz’s work. I vaguely recall that he might’ve been friends with Peggy Fleming and would put her name in the strip when he wanted to try arranging a get together to catch up. I might be confusing her name for some other athlete though. Anyway, this will end badly.

Who knew Peppermint Patty could have such a serious complex about her beauty?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Personally, I don’t find professional models to be particularly more beautiful than other women. I guess my eyes look differently than other men’s.

My daughter goes to get her hair cut at my husband’s barber. The barber is a woman and an old friend from church; so, since our girl doesn’t want anything elaborate (short but feminine) it’s perfect.

Dis-illusioned PP has another of her brainstorms.

Be the best You you can be. Beauty follows.

Shake what your mama gave ya :)

Patty just need confident, 1st panel on nov 20 was the most feminine she’s ever looked and to be fair, she looks just fine but it’s her confidence that tells her otherwise.

Great, now she has to listen to Chuck’s dad sound like a muffled trumpet, bwa, bwa, bwa

I think you look nice as you are, Patty. But if you want a little extra flair, I’d use the Sally Rogers method.

— “Just give me two seconds to make myself gorgeous.”

— “Time’s up!”

sticks bow in hair “I’m gorgeous.”

Peggy Fleming…Dorothy Hamill…Katarina Witt…Tonya Harding…Tara Lipinski…Michelle Kwan. There – all caught up.

Will we actually get to see him?

Schulz had a crush on Peggy Fleming

“Beauty is a garment. It can be taken on and off”__Sarah Bernhardt, actress.

Don’t beat your self up Patty your cute and pretty

Even Peggy Fleming wasn’t born looking like “Peggy Fleming” (yes, I remember her)

Improve your heart, you will be beautiful and soar.

As long as you’re called a “babe” it should be okay, PP… :D

Why do I have this strange tingling sensation at the base of neck about this situation?

I’d rather be Babe Ruthe instead of Peggy Fleming

I feel Peppermint Patty’s pain. Not all girls that have funky hair, are boyish looking and/or like sports are lesbian. It’s just God testing us.

Babe Ruth was fat.Try Joe Di Maggio.

Thing s could be worse,Patty.You could be like Crybaby Boobie.

Still a babe!

Patti may not look like Peggy Fleming, but I don’t think she looks like a candy bar, either.

Aww Patti, you’re beautiful just the way you are ♥♥

Just be content if you can hit like the Babe

You play baseball like him, too, Peppermint Patty…!

Not even Babe Ruth. You’re thinner.

Patti’s hair is not long enough for a Peggy Fleming look. Maybe a Dorothy Hamill. Or a Mark Hamill. Not related.
