For posts about the comic Peanuts, by Charles M. Schulz
Transcript:
Charlie Brown, in his robe, stands in the bathroom holding the edge of the tub. He looks over his shoulder and calls,"Mom! This bath water is too hot! I'll scald myself!"
He stands by the door and continues,"Now it's too cold!" "I'll freeze to death!"
He leans over the tub and looks at the water. He says,"Now it's too deep!" "Do you want me to drown?!"
He sits in the bathtub and concludes,"No matter how much you stall, you can't win!"
Original comic:
There's a Calvin and Hobbes that's basically this exact comic. I obviously don't think Bill cribbed it, of course, but it's still pretty weird how similar it is.
Yeah, I immediately remembered that too. I think this one is paywalled or something? I did get it to work enough to see the comic:
