I have come to the conclusin that Peanuts is the single most depressing comic strip to ever make it into the daily papers.
Seriously, there's one strip where Charlie Brown stands on the pitcher's mound, completely silent for three panels, then in the fourth panel, he says, "I think I'm going to cry." And that's it. Seriously, wtf.
Also, Charles M. Schultz lived out most of his life in my town. We have a museum dedicated to him and various statues of Charlie Brown and Woodstock throughout the town, each decorated according to the business that it stands in front of. Still yet to put up any of Snoopy, but I can see it in the near future. There's an ice skating rink that was named after him, and he used to come and skate it with his close friends.
Aaaand that's the entirety of the noteriety of my home town. Well, Luther Burbank lived there too, but no one really knows who Luther Burbank is.
I find Charlie brown a bit odd....I liked it a bit when I was little, but then again, it's weird. Who names their kid Pigpen or Lucy and Linus litter brother who's name is Rerun! I think the animators and scriptors got bored.
BV....you're sig is still disturbing....but when you really look at it...It's funny in a stomach jerking way *goes to barf*
