Reminds me of the comic with Lucy complaining how she didn’t get what she wanted for Christmas. All she got were some “stupid toys”. When asked what she wanted, she replied: “Real Estate”.
So obviously Schulz didn’t know this, as many Americans still don’t today, but the word “gypsy” is a racial slur, and it is of course always inappropriate to use the term “gyp”.

Should have gotten at least 5 cents for it.

So send it to a publisher Charlie. I’m sure Snoopy knows a good one.

I feel the same about ‘very good’ comments on gocomics – or lots of like(or even one like) “I was hoping to get paid” SIGH!

They always expect a financial allowance for anything good.

I thought it was the student who gave the teacher money or sexual pleasure.
