Why is Charlie Brown so relatable?

>>86401194
Because he's so molestable.

>>86401194
Because Charlie Brown fails miserably and his life is defined by his flaws and inadequacies, not on his triumphs or achievements.

So he is relatable to pretty much anyone, because the path to success is paved with failure and disappointment.

>>86401194
Because being depressed gave Charles Schultz a boner.

>>86401864
Molesting Charlie Brown is like molesting an inbred trailer trash.

>>86403766

So: exactly as nature intended?

I did this exact thing during a depressed day in college once. At dinner time, it turned out everyone was wondering where the hell I had been all day.

That Charming Charlie.

>>86404615
Yeah this hit home way too hard
Sometimes if I don't bother to talk to someone I go the whole day ignored
I even developed a thing were it's hard to me to shut up because if I'm not talking nobody cares about me

Are you me? Did I post this and forget about it?

>>86401194
Because he's us!
He struggles every day to do what's right, and have faith in peopnessed with something he can't have, and in doing so, misses the love of two cute girls.

>>86404615
He learned a lot.
People WON'T be coming for you.

None of my friends ever call me up. I have to remind them I even exist.

>>86415232

Because you can't sleep.

>>86415232
I envy you. A lot. Trying to sleep for me is at least an hour's worth of involuntarily beating myself up over my own flaws and inadequacies and questioning my own existence and if suicide might be the damn answer one of these days.

It reminds me of the Doug Stanhope bit about "Have you ever tried to sleep sober?" Dude nails it 10/10 if you don't experience it yourself.

How do people even get friends? I've never understood. Sure there was a guy I always sat next to in school but the idea of knocking on someone's door or something always freaked me out.

>>86414868
He never lost hope anon.

That's why he keeps trying to kick the football.

>>86415372

That's one of my favorite pieces Stanhope ever did, hit the point entirely. I never was able to fall asleep without that daunting first hour.

>>86415372
>>86415360
I only can't get to sleep when I don't go to bed. Also on Christmas Eve but my inadequacies never come up.

This comic is hit & miss, but when it hits. Oh boy is it good.

>>86415946
You make yourself a constant in the guys life long enough for him to get used to you, there is nothing musical about it really
That's why school or work are friends breeding grounds, you just have to be a tiny bit social, not even much

>>86416085
My nightmares are like convulsions tho, I feel like there are monsters shaking me and yelling and I'm fully aware it's a dream but I can't wake up

Cuz life sucks, then ya die.

>>86416111
I've always seen it impolite to hang around longer than you're needed. I hate it when people pester me so why should I do the same to them just so I can say I have friends?

isn't that great though?

what a miserable counterproductive pattern. You lie awake thinking about nonsense, you do yourself no favors by not sleeping well, so your next day is miserable and full of mistakes because you aren't a fully rested person, so you lie awake thinking about how shitty your day is, which keeps you nice and tired and ready for another shitty day.

fucking depressed people always get on my nerves. I grew out of that shit over a decade ago.

>>86416409

You would make a wonderful grief counselor.

>>86416349
There are times were your company is not wanted but sometimes you aren't a bother at all
You have to learn to differentiate when people are busy from when people are just slacking and doing nothing
Try this next time you are light on work tell people to come have a beer with you like this
Anyone wants to grab a beer? Like it's not big deal

>>86416409
Different people handle it differently. Just because you were able to overcome it doesn't mean someone else with the same problem will be able to just as easily. And saying "man up pussy" doesn't help most depressed people.

>>86401194

Having things in common. The odd one who doesn't like what the rest do will naturally go nowhrre and never be missed when absent. If you were that kid who never liked sports or parties or playing dirty or smuggling candy into the classroom, will never have friends.

What if you don't like drinking?

>>86416624
You acquire a taste for drinking first
Drinking is the easiest way to bond, if you are ever going to give in on a single thing it should be drinking

>>86416409
Man, he isn't even depressed. He still has hope, and still has happiness. It's just life...life is just hard for Charlie Brown.

>>86416624

Eating and drinking are two of the best social interactions you can do. It's WHY we ask people to dinner when we date them.

>>86416409

>Five cents please

>>86416648
No, no, I finish up a new bottle every three or four days. The taste for it is not the problem, I just plain don't like drinking, and I really cannot imagine drinking in the company of people who clearly do. Get-togethers always feel like examinations anyway, like I were presenting a thesis.

Yeah, but you gotta enjoy the other person's company in the first place. The food and drinks are just complements to that. Otherwise, it's like going to a party just for the free snacks and then leave.

It's kinda normal. I think I've been on both end of this situation. It is hard to distinguish whether a person wants to spent some time alone or too bummed to join others but needs company. In the latter case most of us are too proud to show it.

For fuck's sake if you're the one who always initiates conversation and events, your friends expect you to keep being that guy. It doesn't mean they don't care about you.

>>86418597

You'll have nerdy friends. As you become an adult, you spend more and more time around people similar to you, anyways; starting with a separation between those who either go to college or straight into the work force, and another after people choose their majors and careers.

>>86415946
There's an ambiguity zone in jocularity and common interest that just sort of aligns. You rarely become friends with people by deliberately seeking to do so
