    I guess Charles Schultz just grew up in a different time, but I always wondered why Charlie Brown never snapped, and just beat the shit out of her. Not the first time she did that. That would be psycho behavior to just start beating the shit out of one of your friends for doing that ONCE…but Wendy has made a whole life reputation out of being the one who does this…EVERY…SINGLE…TIME.

    So after like 10 times, I’m surprised Charlie Brown never went “Ok, you know what, come here, removed…” and then the next day’s comic strip Wendy would have a black eye. Then, 30 years later, these youtube shows could do these low budget list videos

    “Ten times sunday morning cartoons got really really dark!”

    And at like number 3 would be the time Peanuts suggested that Charlie Brown punched Wendy.

    And maybe like number 7 could be the time Dilbert got really biggoted towards his new trans co-worker.

    And number 1 would be Jon from the Garfield comics going completely fucking insane, feeding his 12lb cat a 6lb dish of lasagna every week, talking to, and understanding his cat (but for some reason NOT his dog), and his batshit insane dating life stratagies such as hiding in womens bushes, and surprising them at work unannounced during work hours. Yes, these are all legit things I absolutely remember reading in real garfield cartoons in the 90s.
