Peanuts by Charles Schulz for December 11, 2023

Sigh… I remember when it only cost a nickel.

We have met the enemy and he is us.

That girl’s been thinking?

So many people are, Lucy. So many people are.

Sometimes our own worst enemies are ourselves.

Tomorrow I will just stay in bed.

We fight betw two choices day by day, thought by thought, desire by desire, otherwise we would not choose tghe one and ignore the other

I think default is yours, Chuck.

Ten Cents Please!

“Default dear CB, is not in our stars / But in ourselves, that we are underlings.”

Chuck, don’t give up, you have so much pain from life’s disappointments, you could write a great self-help book, with Lucy’s help of course.

How can we be our own enemies?

I dispute Charlie’s preface. He’s able to pull together the neighborhood baseball team every year. True, his coaching leaves much to be desired but he gives it his all. And his worst enemy is his shrink.

I think Lucy’s advice is Charlie Brown’s worst enemy because she has a habit of demeaning him… and everyone else.

I’ve been a fan for as long as I can remember starting back when I was little in the 60s. Maybe I’ve stuck with it so long because I relate so well to Charlie Brown.

Inflation hit Lucy. Didn’t she use to charge a nickel?

Friends come and go, enemies accumulate

1cent!

I guess I don’t get around much anymore. When did Lucy double her price for psychiatric care to ten cents?
