Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 01, 2024

He draws the line at the collar, sitting outside to stop random muggers he’ll do ,though.

I can’t wait to hear what Count Olaf has to say about today’s comic :D

Sweet time?

Peppermint Patty used to think that Snoopy was a “funny looking kid” like Charlie Brown but now she is treating Charlie Brown as though he is a dog like Snoopy!

He will do anything for love, but he won’t do that.

Where did Snoopy go?

Maybe she’ll chain him up, so HE doesn’t leave, too.

I just wonder if the expression “you’re taking your sweet time getting over here” seems to be derogatory and disapproving, would it have been better if Chuck took his bitter time getting over there instead?

Chuck is sweet on Peppermint Patty, or what?

Wow, Charlie is the unbelievable good friend. He’s willing to sub for his doggie in the night air, all night. Fortunately, he draws the line at wearing a leather collar. No doubt Patty will hold this against him for years to come. It’s too bad someone can’t tell Patty she’s not the mug-gable type. She’s the one that might be kidnapped and then released just to be rid of her.

How is one kid, who is less physical that the one he’s protecting, going to be any more of a deterrent to a mugger than a beagle was?

He has standards.

Stop being a pushover, you blockhead! You’ll need to put your foot down one of these days!

Kids don’t wear dog collars.

Why is Patty outside in her nightie?

Where’d you even get that collar, anyways?

Give it a few years Chuck.

forget the collar, wear these chaps instead

This arc highlights the strange absolute absence of adults in this strip.

Is it a shock collar?

A little Alpo should ease his humiliation.

I still don’t see why it’s his or his dog’s job miss bossy boots. Your dad is responsible for you not a little boy.

Gee , I didn’t know Patty was a goth!

Ooooh, kinky patty

She should have had a guardian in the house with her

She can sleep at Marcie’s house

The poor guy goes through enough embarrassment already.
