Peanuts, the classic comic strip by Charles Shultz (and the many animated movies it spawned), is a piece of Americana and a core memory of childhood for millions of people. With characters as unforgettable as Charlie Brown, Lucy, Woodchuck, and Snoopy, the strip caught you right in the feels.

With its innocent and instantly-recognizable art style, Peanuts makes the perfect target for memes that find humor in subverting expectations. In memes, the sweet kids of the original comics will booze and cuss and the classic image of Lucy tricking Charlie Brown with a football has come to represent various political developments. The relationship between Charlie Brown and Snoopy has received more than a few troubling modern updates, and the signature style of the strip has been riffed on many times.

Christmas Debate

Who knew that the Charlie Brown Christmas special carried such a wide spectrum of political discourses?

Daft Punk Schroeder

It is, quite possibly, what Schroeder ended up doing with his life. Nobody would be surprised -- the boy’s music slapped. And you've never seen the faces of Daft Punk, have you now?

Lucy's Psychiatric Practice

Hopefully, given that she’s now a professional psychiatrist, Lucy is making more than five cents. And hopefully Charlie Brown can get the help he needs.
