Linus Blanket


another word for a pacifier, comforter or security blanket, but it can be used as a metaphor. originating from the comic strip peanuts, the character linus is always holding his blanket for protection. his dependence has lead to this being a pop-culture reference to all such objects in relation to those who need them.

the term became a lot more popular after the term was used by simon pegg in an early episode of the hit tv sitcom sp-ced.
“does the convenience storekeeper really need that baseball bat under the counter?”

“not really, it’s just a linus blanket, he’ll never use it!”
