I love with some onion articles, you can tell exactly what prompted the writer to make them

the thing about fiber art that nobody tells you about is that every single kind of fiber art is a gateway drug to other kinds of fiber art.

they are finally giving me a magnificent gilded cup for all of the folding chairs ive helped put away at various events and functions

I think Lucy really intends to hold the ball still each time, and her own pain at her inability to give herself sincerely to the game is the real emotional core of the story. It's a testament to Charlie Brown's generosity of spirit that he believes or feigns to believe in his friend's potential for growth year after year. Maybe he's too good of a friend, maybe she needs something else. I don't know.

I assume prev already knows this, but for future viewers of this post, this isn't even Lucy. It's Violet, one of the original cast of the comic who eventually faded into the ensemble as characters like Linus, Lucy, and Sally were introduced and became popular. (She mostly appears (with her hair in a bun) on the baseball team in later years, alongside other original cast members Patty and Shermy.)

Choosing the bunny life.

"everybody hates me" factoid actually just a statistical error. The average person doesn't hate you, especially not your friends. You, a person who sits in your room experiencing self loathing every day, are an outlier adn should not have been counted.

This is sweet but I really thought it was going to end with someone named “Haters Horge” who spends every second in a cave halfway across the world just loathing you for no reason and they were the statistical outlier

Don't be your own Haters Horge
