Peanuts by Charles Schulz for June 17, 2018

Well, that was a swell girl talk.

To me, Father’s Day is a tiny bit less remember-able.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TO PEANUTS FANS!

Yes, very sad. Just what My Dog (above) said. It was one of two days in the year to honor Dad. I used to MAKE cards for my Dad when I was a kid. When he died two years ago, I was cleaning his attic and found all my cards from birthdays and Father’s Days. He had saved every one.

What Sally said insults me.

This is so sad.

What Sally said can be taken more than one way. Nice when they remember, but it’s not required. When it’s not required and they remember anyway, it’s twice as sweet. :-)

This is so true

Being a father is one of the great blessings of life, thank you heavenly Father.

Sad commentary – especially today.

I find that very very sad. We always gave our Dad a really happy Father’s day as it was one of the 2 days, (the other being his birthday), when we could do for him what he did for us every other day of the year. Fathers are an exceptionally part important of a person’s life and should always be made to feel so. If like mine did, they work long hard hours just to make sure that their family have all they need and rarely ask for anything in return. I really miss my Dad. He died 10 years ago. I’d give anything to have him back again to celebrate Father’s day. Those of you who still have a Dad, give him an extra big hug and remember just how lucky you are.

What a terrible arc today – I’d give anything to have one more day with my Daddy, be it Father’s day or any day, but Father’s day was always extra special, it was a day for Daddy to do whatever he wanted and we were always there

When I was a little kid and a bunch of other kids and I were playing softball or basketball or whatever with my Dad (he was the “neighborhood dad” type), and the younger kids would do something wrong (which always hurt MY team!), my Dad would always say, “We’re all just learning.” I’m lucky enough to still have him decades later, and you know what? We ARE all just learning!

You ungrateful little brats should be thankful to have loving fathers who work hard to take care of you. Not all little girls are that lucky! I bet Peppermint Patty remembered!

Happy Father’s Day Peanuts fans

those girls suck.. and I feel sorry for their dad

On Mother’s Day we go to church and hear about how wonderful the womenfolk are and how we men don’t deserve such angels in our lives. On Father’s Day we go to church and hear how to be perfect husband’s & father’s and how far short we all are.

So sad. My Dad was the stabilizing force in our dysfunctional family. My Mom was a bit off her rocker and I’m afraid it runs in the family!

Meanwhile, good ol’ Charlie Brown is probably spending the day with his father.

Mater semper certa est Pater numquam

What the heck!? Frick the last panel

Why are Sally and Lucy nice to their family except their dad?!

The comment section is so sad to me. Yes, this comic reflects the stereotype of man suffering in silence and women complaining and nagging. But let’s face it, it’s a stereotype because of the bit of truth in it. The 1950-70s fathers were brought up to not be so openly affectionate with their children and to hold sadness in. Therefore, the girls’ fathers will not mention them missing Fathers Day. Their mothers, on the other hand, would never let them hear the end of it.
