Peanuts - Charlie Let's Loose

I think most of us can agree that within the Peanuts comic strip, Lucy Van Pelt really needs to have someone tell her off. After all, she does take advantage of the people around her, notoriously crabby, and a bit of a sociopath.

The idea of this conversation came to me when I thought back to a special called "It's Your First Kiss, CHarlie Brown", where during a big game and there was a field kick being setup, Charlie made the run, but Lucy pulled the ball away.

Then at the homecoming ball, she had the brass balls to say that it was Charlie's fault that they lost the game, when in fact it was her fault since she was holding the ball in the first place.

It was that line of thought that brought me to this six-frame conversation between the two of them, but ultimately, like the punchline of a joke I wanted the ending square to have Charlie with a victorious smile on his face and saying that line from the movie "Clerks".

"There's nothing more exhilirating than pointing out the short-comings of others, is there?"

Of course I had to revise the phrase a little bit in order for it to fit into the word bubble, but I think most of you get the general idea.
