these days i honestly think it's peppermint patty: lots of outsized energy, stepping on toes and meaning well, sometimes not noticing that the marcie in front of me really loves me.

who is extremely unqualified to review this pop album (BradNelson), Monday, 24 October 2016 16:37 (eight years ago)

It's weirdly reflective of where I'm at in life that this is maybe the first time as an adult that I wouldn't automatically answer Charlie Brown but without that as the default option I have no idea who the hell I'd be.

Schroeder, forever and always

I know hoes that know Ali Farka Toure (voodoo chili), Monday, 24 October 2016 16:51 (eight years ago)

i would be curious to hear what you think Schroeder reads as, inside and out.

the notes the loon doesn't play (ulysses), Monday, 24 October 2016 17:51 (eight years ago)

i definitely aim for a snoopy-like inscrutability but tbh i'm probably a linus or schroeder

ciderpress, Monday, 24 October 2016 17:54 (eight years ago)

At this point in my life I identify most with the character: Charles Schulz.

I like to think of myself as Linus, the sensitive baseball-field philosopher, but in reality I am Charlie Brown. At best, I suppose I occasionally blunder into being Charlie Brown as "Mister Sack."

Shoutout though to Crybaby Boobie:

I've id'ed with Chuck my entire life and not just because I share my initials with him.

Elvis Telecom, Sunday, 6 November 2016 23:38 (eight years ago)

Idk, I'll go with Woodstock.

Jeff, Sunday, 6 November 2016 23:41 (eight years ago)

I voted Schroeder but really I think I've always been more of a Pig-Pen.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

For a brief time in my late teens, I tried to convince people to call me "5". Spelled "V".

I'm pretty glad that didn't take.

hardcore dilettante, Sunday, 20 November 2016 01:21 (eight years ago)

For the last 2 1/2 years I've listened to more Beethoven than anything else, so Schroeder. (I was so thrilled to watch part of "Happy New Year, Charlie Brown!" last year and be able to go "Aha! 'Waldstein' sonata!")

“a tub of horses” (Myonga Vön Bontee), Sunday, 20 November 2016 02:08 (eight years ago)

been feeling very Charlie Brown lately

Al Moon Faced Poon (Moodles), Sunday, 20 November 2016 02:17 (eight years ago)

When I was about 13 I did a Charlie Brown monologue in theater camp. I don't think I chose it, it just happened, but everyone agreed it was fitting. I haven't really changed at all since then, so...

The original Patty, who was rudely replaced by Peppermint Patty, and who nobody cares about anymore and hasn't been relevant since the 1960s

Josefa, Sunday, 20 November 2016 05:46 (eight years ago)

Feeling more and more like Peppermint Patty standing out in the rain after everyone else has gone, in that too-sad-for-words penultimate strip.

"We had fun, didn't we Marcie?"

Pheeel, Sunday, 20 November 2016 20:33 (eight years ago)

Sometimes Linus, in not necessarily being the main character but usually the more philosophical one

i've been following various peanuts fb groups for reposts of strips in my timeline. there's a group called "we love snoopy" where hundreds of people post baby talk comments about how much they love snoopy. very strange and funny "adult fans of teletubbies" energy.

Very nice snoopy that you have learned to share you keep this up and will be very popular every one will love you big boy godbless prayers

glum mum (map), Saturday, 29 March 2025 15:08 (five months ago)

snoopy would be my answer to this question btw

glum mum (map), Saturday, 29 March 2025 15:08 (five months ago)

I love that Miss Othmar was an option and someone voted for her

One of Shulz's many regrets was that Pig Pen was a one joke character like Charlotte Braunn. But he kept Pig Pen unlike the latter. He could of expanded Pig Pen's character at any time!

Love the strips from the mid -70s where Woodstock reveals to Snoopy he piloted helicopters in ’Nam

There are a lot of Snoopy types in LA. Pretty good at entertaining, active fantasy lives, a weird brother who lives in the desert, etc..

omar little, Saturday, 29 March 2025 17:56 (five months ago)

How have I not heard about Charlotte Braunn before now. The internet has failed me.
