Line 148:
'''Patty:''' Never! Not even Charlie Brown would do anything '''that''' stupid! }}
:: In the last panel, Charlie Brown is standing on third base, asking himself whether he should try to steal home. And he eventually does try, too... which works out about as well as Charlie Brown's ideas usually do.
*:* The plot element was featured in the TV special ''Charlie Brown's All-Stars''.
* A variant occurs during a [[Story Arc]] in the comic strip ''[[Bloom County]]'', where Bill the Cat becomes a televangelist and claims if people send him $50 million, the Lord will "call home" Jimmy Swaggert, Oral Roberts, Jerry Falwell, and Jim Bakker. In the last frame, Milo says "Wipe out the gang of four, eh? Who knows who would fall for such a seductive pitch!" just as Opus is rifling through a wad of dollar bills. (This was a parody of Oral Roberts' fund raising appeal claiming that God would "call him home" if he didn't get a certain amount of money in donations.)
* In a ''[[FoxTrot]]'' comic, Jason asked every member of his family if they wanted to have a snowball fight with him. They each reply "Do I look like an idiot?"... until he gets to Roger, who says "Let me get my coat." before Jason can even finish the question.
