Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for May 17, 2012

From a funny British show called “Are You Being Served?”, about the staff at a London department store. She was a single, old lady who had a cat. I think it was from the 1970’s but here in the U.S. they’d play it on PBS not to long ago.

Well said, simpsonfan!

Is that “Ninja kitty” from One big happy? BTW, pets only attack humans if they’re extremely distressed.

Nice reference, Simpsonfan

There used to be an urban legend that if you had a cat in the same house with a baby, it would try to get on the baby’s face and smother it. Nonsense, of course.

Aww, he’s cute! Hey, I am a pixie, It’s our nature to adore things that are just as sweet as us!

Too bad Mrs. Godfrey doesn’t know that Nate is afraid of cats!

I’ve never seen Mr.s Godfrey in a good mood before… EVERYBODY TO THE BUNKERS! IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD!

my b-day

I apparently missed something. I didn’t know Nate was afraid of cats. How did that come about? As for cats attracted to people who hate them, not always true. I’ve had friends’ cats come up to me as soon as I walk in the door and it was the first time they ever saw me. And I like cats. Have one now along with 2 dogs. I’ve always had both.

Did simpsonfan get deleted? There were a lot of references to a post that isn’t here.

THIS could be the (much needed, IF Nate’s going to pass in school for the entire rest of his life!) "cat"alyst that could finally bond Nate & the G Lady. (I actually thought this was happening back at that water fountain fracas in January, but that sorta petered out and withered away! MAYBE this time!)

notice on panel one that francis’ shirt is not pointy at the bottom, while in panel four it is.

be afraid, Nate, be very afraid. See Eccl 7:28.

Yeah, Nate! IMAGINE!

doesnt mrs. godfrey have a dog…. Genghis

Genghis evils. Ollie’s restaurant.

its not nates fault that hes scared

Shut up Francis, it’s not Nate’s fault he’s ailurophobic. You don’t have any right to judge, you uncultured capybara

Stop. Mocking. His. Fear.

How did Mrs Godfrey not notice Nate on her filing cabinet?

what about her baby?
