I would love to say "only in France," but, unfortunately this kind of criminal stupidity is without borders.
So someone actually suggested that the life of a famous person might not have been happiness and sunshine? How fucking dare he?

My mom knew Shutlz.
That's all, don't really have anything to add. Except that yeah, the face that he showed his family might not have been the face 'underneath' so to speak.

The first is a "So he had 3 Dimensions?". Number 2 is one of those things so thick it defies sanity.

"Last year a man with a hammer attacked a symbol of the anarchic Dada movement -- a ceramic urinal first exhibited by surrealist artist Marcel Duchamp in 1917."
i'm not sure this isn't in keeping with the spirit of both the piece and the movement
also,
"A woman is due to go on trial this week for kissing a painting by the U.S. artist Cy Twombly on show in Avignon, and leaving lipstick smudges on the canvas. The defendant has said her kiss was an act of love, not vandalism."
lady, a kiss from you is a crime against humanity

Shows how much you know. Without Peanuts, there would have been no Calvin & Hobbes. Bill Waterson stated on several occasions just how much Peanuts influenced his work. He admired Schultz's work greatly and if you read early Peanuts (50's, 60's and early 70's) you'd see why.
As for the 'revelation' that Schultz was likely a manic depressive, how terribly terribly amazing. A talented creative artist suffering from a form of mental illness? no way! get out of here!
