Chalie Brown's definition of love?
What was it. I can't find it using google so I figured I'd ask here.
shareIt was something along the lines of:
His Dad had a old car which he would open the door for this cute girl he was seeing, and then walk around the back of the car to his door. But by the time he got to his door she had reached across and locked it. She would sit there looking at him twitching her nose.
Found it!
Peppermint Patty: What do you think love is, Chuck?
Charlie Brown: Well, years ago, my dad owned a black, 1934, 2-door sedan.
Peppermint Patty: What's that got to do with love?
Charlie Brown: Well, this is what he told me. There was this real cute girl, see. She used to go for rides with him in his car. And whenever he would call for her he would always hold open the car door for her. After she got in, and he had closed the door, he'd walk around the back of the car to the driver's side. But before he could get there, she would reach over and press the button, locking him out. Then, she'd just sit there, and wrinkle her nose, and grin at him. That's what I think love is.
Peppermint Patty: Sometimes I wonder about you, Chuck.

I think thats a very realistic thing for a kid to say, but then again, were talking about 8-year-olds talking about love (they are about 8, right?)
shareOnce I read an old Peanuts comic where Chuck and Pattie were in school, so I always thought they were about that age, but I've always wondered. Does anyone know, is it ever mentioned?
shareJust remember that the Peanuts characters use much larger words than most kids have in their vocabulary, but they're definitely somewhere in the middle of their elementary school years by my estimation.
Actually, in some of the TV specials, they lumped everyone into the same classroom.
In actuality, Peppermint Patty, Franklin, Marcie, and one character named Roy are from across town.
One thing they did often at times was to put Linus and Sally in the same class, even though in original continuity, Linus has a 5 year age difference on Sally (at least that was the reality when Sally was introduced into the comic in 1959).
