Peanuts, Quentin Tarantino style

This genuine, official Peanuts strip may be the funniest one I’ve ever found in any Peanuts book:
As you probably figured out part-way through, this is not an official English language strip; this is the Swedish translation. I wrote about it in the then-AAUGH newsletter , when I’d just gotten a copy of 1970’s Snobben Och Hans Varld, a collection from 1970. Today, the Schulz Museum ran the original English version on Facebook. “Killar” is Swedish for “tickle”, and the “hi” in Swedish is translating “hee”. This strip shows part of the joy of delving into foreign editions – sometimes, you get the simple joy of Peanuts, sometimes you get these small joyous differences of the culture.
