Peanuts Begins by Charles Schulz for January 26, 2022

Plot twist…there’s no party. They just wanted to be cruel…

“A soft answer turneth away wrath.”

Reverse psychology, very good Charlie Brown!

It took me decades to realise that the “popular” kids are not necessarily liked by their sycophants; they just know how to make themselves very, very unpleasant if the expected adulation is not forthcoming. That, or they have advantages the other kids want to use (pool, horses, large patio for parties etc.)

A rare win for Charlie Brown.

Little girls can be mean to little boys ….. and for some it keeps on even when they are grown up .

I wouldn’t go to any party where they would invite me. (With apologies to Groucho Marx.)

Good comeback, Charlie.

Reverse psychology works every time.

Score one for the round headed kid…

Well, I hate to mention a tragedy here, but Peter Robbins, the original voice of Charlie Brown in the TV specials of the 1960’s, and A Boy Named Charlie Brown, committed suicide at age 65. RIP, Mr. Robbins.

If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with BS!

You got them, Charlie Brown.

6/10

P4: I like that parting smile!

Good move, Chucky!

Haha! The mean little girls are left unsatisfied.

I wouldn’t want to attend a party of snobs either.

When I was a kid, I had a neighbor who specifically didn’t invite someone to her party to hurt their feelings. But I was tattletale and told her Mom what she was doing. She got in trouble and her mom said she couldn’t have her party if the other girl wasn’t invited. The neighbor girl didn’t speak to me for about a month, she was so angry at me for telling on her. A few years after high school I ran into her at a store and we talked. That incident came up an she said, “Wow, what a little **tch I was back then.”

what is year was this one in

Ruined all their fun. Good for you, Charlie Brown.

Good grief!

That took the wind out of their sails!
