Peanuts by Charles Schulz for June 18, 2018

And from whom did you earn your medical degree, Lucy?

Ah, a truth and a lie. The truth, she spends the money immediately. Guess penny candy. The lie, she has a medical degree, let alone any degree.

There used to be a Cathy comic strip where Cathy spent too much money. Maybe Lucy ended up being her psychiatrist which would explain why Cathy was never cured.

Why doesn’t Charlie save his money and go to his parents for advice? Says a lot about his folks that he would rather pay money to this venomous, mean spirited, spiteful, football snatching girl than go to them.

I wanna do that.

Well spoken Lucille, or should I say Doctor. Medical school is right next door to the institute of death and taxes.

I don’t know any “service” other than health care where the practitioners get paid (exorbitantly) whether they help you or not.

Here’s the world-famous medical malpractice attorney preparing to recover damages for his improperly advised client.

Sounds like you’re starting a fine career as a politician, Lucy.

“My patient came to me as a depressed loser with an insane dog, and he LEFT me as a depressed loser with an insane dog. I mean, could you BE more consistent?”

Ah yes, back when candy used to cost less than 10 cents… Better times
