They do that. It’s true. And you can’t ignore them, either.

It would have been FUNNY, even HILARIOUS, if Schulz ever did depict food as human beings, with speech balloons emanating from them, when "calling"someone. He might as well have done that, after all, there were times he would depict objects, such as articles of clothing, as human, by having speech bubbles coming from them. I know that’s only an expression, meaning Lucy is SO hungry, and thinking about cake, and can’t help herself any longer, so she disappears and goes home to help herself to some cake.

I’ve been there, myself, heard “some kind of goody, or treat,”calling me; we all have, I’m sure.
