W-w-w-what? I thought Peanuts was supposed to be realistic!

Peanuts realistic? So, the usual beagle is like Snoopy, isn’t?

(By which I mean how they start young, age to a fixed point, then pretty much stop. Perhaps, “asymptotically” isn’t exactly the right word, but it’s probably the closest.)

Realistic? So Linus blowing up square balloons and patting birds on the head…you see that every day do you? And a kite-eating tree eating Shroeder’s piano? That’s realistic?
