Peanuts by Charles Schulz for November 18, 2021

Peppermint Patty and Marcie need to talk to Lucille; only costs 10¢ between the both of them.

At least you have a never-ending hanky, Patty.

And somehow Chuck will feel that this is all his fault.

And that was the day Chuck penned the song for his friends in the band, Steeler’s Wheel (“Stuck in the Middle With You”)

good grief

Diana Frances Spencer

…uh, oh….

“Pat to the left of me, Marcie to the right, here I am, stuck in the middle with you.”

Better get a bailing bucket Charlie Brown. I think that you are in for a flood.

Go lock yourself in the bathroom Chuck … neither of those two would bother you in there.

She said from the beginning that she did not know how to sew

How sad…

Since when did Charlie Brown become a “father confessor” to whom women come to tell their problems?

Unless she’s completely naked under there, why doesn’t PP take off that muumuu?

“How did I wind up in the middle of this?”

You can’t explain anything to Peppermint Patty.

1st panel—C.B. considers very carefully what to say next (she might as well have asked him if it made her look “fat”…

2nd panel—Hey! The phone! woohoo!

I can’t help but notice that nobody is running to Linus for help.

Cry baby cry Make your mother sigh She’s old enough to know better So cry baby cry

One of my all-time favourite Peanuts strips.

Poor Marie! Patty brought this on them both. What a jerk

NEVER get into the middle of two girls crying. It only goes downhill…….

As the strip so often says—“Somehow,I never seem to know what’s going on….”

Easy solution. Hug Marcie and smack Peppermint Patty.

Poor Charlie Brown; caught between two fires.

I got some mylanta if you want, CB

“Is that the phone?”

Well, it ain’t a walkie-talkie! d;o)

Try your best, Chuck. They’re the only kids who don’t make fun of you.

If they really need someone to talk to who will talk good sense to them, they need Linus or Schroeder, not Charlie Brown.

Yes, Peppermint Patty, that tree skirt looks like a skating dress. A skatting dress made by someone who doesn’t know how to sew and told you that. But who you refused to listen to, like normal.

Charlie Brown coming between two upset and disagreeing women. Good luck Chuck!

Charlie Brown is so confused. He’s not used to being around one, let alone two people who are more miserable than him.

This is a ‘sucks to be me’ moment.
