Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for May 16, 1991
Transcript:
Francis: I wish people thought I was funny! Nate: You are, Francis! But looks aren't everything! Nyuk nyuk! Francis: I'm not going to stand here and be insulted! I'm leaving! Nate: Fine! Nate: Have a nice trio! Ha! Ha! Francis: How come I have to be the nerdy one? Nate: Lighten up, Francis! Do you want me to make you a star or not?
That would be more like nate nowadays.
