Another chase. I have to disagree with Charlie Brown in the last panel, that was not really all that notable a joke.

I started to google the joke to see if was some common phrase of the time but then realized that it's just playing off "you can't keep a good man down." So yeah.
ReplyDeleteIt's more than that, apparently Charlie Brown went all the way over to Patty's house for the sake of the joke.
ReplyDeleteHmm. If you consider the point of the strip the lengths CB'll go through for a lame joke, it almost works.
