Peanuts Begins by Charles Schulz for April 27, 2015

You also did your worst.

You’re a real ladies’ man alright, Charlie Brown.

you should have said, “you prettier than Lucy, and even if it fades in the future, your inner beauty will still draw me to you”, but got to say, Charlie sure has less issues talking to girls about beauty than when he met the red haired girl

I once asked my mum if I was pretty. She replied, “You’re pretty when you smile.” I suppose she wanted to make me smile a lot. My six-year-old mind simply interpreted it as “you’re ugly the rest of the time.”

“… or rather the sun, and not the moon, for it shines bright, and never changes, but keeps his course truly.” Henry V, Act 5, Scene 2, King Henry describes himself to his intended bride, as not so good-looking, but steady and loyal.

What does Charlie Brown mean by “I did my best”?

True.

I go with “attractive”, which implies more-than-looks that I find appealing.

“He who would tell the truth must keep one foot in the stirrup.”Arab proverb.

Charlie Brown gets his laughs……..

I’m siding with somebodyelse2 on this subject…

Yes, they are. A compliment that wasn’t asked for is also more appreciated by the recipient.

Patty got what she deserves. And what Charlie Brown says is true anyway, so it is the best answer.

He gets off easier than Schroeder will with Lucy . . .
