Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for October 26, 2020

as you should, Nate

Oh, Nate get ready for mass embarrassment

I feel like I shouldn’t trick or treat at Nate’s house.

Why doesn’t he just hand out apples as a treat if he’s all about the health food? It’s not candy, but apples are always great.

Why does Nate care so much? He can just skip his house. The eggs may have some future effects on his house but I’m sure Nate would be happy to see his dad get what he deserves.

Depends on the idea which one of them has over what “real candy” is..

Better not be raisins.

Aren’t you supposed to get the bad feeling after eating whatever treats he bought?

Oh no.

somebody tell Marty to not embarrass nate again

I am having a feeling he will give out walnuts this year

LOL! Here we go again!

Uh oh… What disaster will he hand out this year? Chocolate covered ants?

Define “bad feeling”.

Real Candy, noun: Candy that actually tastes good to a majority of children.

Please tell me you are giving the perfect candy.

I do not like the sound of that!

Carob-covered TVP. That’s texturized vegetable protein AKA dried out tofu.

Uh oh…

halloween for me is just staying home avoiding all the kids who spam the heck outta the doorbell

This man….

Nate’s dad and Jason’s mother have strange ideas about what is good to eat.

Are you guys even getting candy for halloween?

EVERY BIG NATE HALLOWEEN ARC IN A NUTSHELL

Marty: Hey Nate, guess what? I went to the store and bought [insert healthy food item here]! Kids will definitely go crazy for these! Oh, and here’s a very tiny bag for you to put your candy in. When it’s full, you’re done trick-or-treating.

Nate: facepalm here we go again…

Nate puts on his costume and starts to trick-or-treat with Francis and Teddy. Nate comes back to the house later.

Marty: So, how was your trick-or-treat- Wait, what’s that noise outside?

He opens the window curtain and sees a crowd of at least 50 kids and adults holding pitchforks and torches.

The Crowd: BURN! BURN! BURN! BURN!

Marty quickly closes the window curtain.

Marty: Nate… they’re going to burn our house down!

Nate: Well that’ll teach you a lesson: never give out lame treats on Halloween.

I mean how much does it hurt to buy candy

ah, he who does not learn from the lessons of the past, is bound to repeat them………

So we aren’t expecting too many trick-or-treaters this year. For those that do show up, I was thinking of handing out those 8-ounce cans of soda instead of candy. My adult son isn’t so sure that it would be a good idea since he feels that kids would be expecting candy on Halloween. Any thoughts?

i wish October ended on the 30th so it would take less time till Halloween.

Lame-O candy. Comes in a white wrapper with a bar code and a label that says CANDY.

Better candy

“real candy” is CanDy CoRn

Usually in the earlier strips it says what the healthy food is. I guess we have to wait now to what is will really be :)

Time to egg Nate’s house.

Organically grown blueberries toasted crispy IS candy!

Bwa ha ha! Honest, I tried to keep a straight face.

Not againnnnnnnnnn

Would it kill Marty to hand out real candy?

Here we go again, When are you going to learn your lesson, Marty?

ahhaahahahahahahahahhahahahd dying of laughter marty is dumb hahhahahahaahhahahahahahhahahahaha

I suggest not going trick or treating due to COVID-19. I suggest buying your candy after October 31st, it’s pretty much free after that.

Stay safe on this Halloween season! (Don’t go into any vans either.)

Real candy = Not raisens!

An arc about Nates dad failing I’m getting good candy. I’ve never seen THIS before.

Hi guys! ill be skipping nates house this year! Reply CHad gang if you will too!

1. where is space owl 2. beware of walnuts and prunes 3. can someone fill me in on the last few days, just had s road trip

HE MIGHT BE HANDING OUT PRUNES AND DISGUSTING HOMEMADE RICE KRISPIES. BAD THING IS, HE WON’T BE HANDING OUT GOOD CANDY LIKE KIT KATS AND SKITTLES

Why doesn’t Nate go shopping with his dad to get the candy? At least he could tell him what to buy.

a bad feeling? this seems very familiar.

Miniature boxes of raisins?

Real candy (reel kan-dee) Real: adjective, candy: noun (the pronunciation and parts of speech are based on research) Snickers, Milky Way, Reese’s, York Peppermint Patties, M&M’s, 100 Grand, Kit Kat, Twix, etc., or other candy, commonly candy bars, but NOT VEGETABLE RELATED FOODS, OR ACTUAL VEGETABLES!!! NOT THE MAJORITY OF FRUIT RELATED FOODS AND CANDIES, OR ACTUAL FRUITS!!! (although they taste sweet) AND NO OTHER FOODS THAT AREN’T CONSIDERED CANDY, BECAUSE THOSE DO NOT FIT IN ON THE HALLOWEEN CANDY LIST!!!

ooohhhh nooooo

Prepare to lose the House, Hypocrite

My dad is such a moron

Looks like kale chips this year.

I am extremely bored. Help me

Uh oh. What is he handing out this time?

Egg salad?

Probably avocado on rice cakes

BIG NATE WANTS SOME SKITTLES

pretty generic setup for a pretty generic arc… eh. B

candy

well, as the nomads that brought aang and katara together and have their first kiss would say, SECRET TUNELLS!

did anyone here see the next gen nick poster with big nate?

I can’t believe he is going to tp houses during the pandemic.

Get cheaper better candy! Why would I want my house vandalized?

Can I just say how much I hate Nate’s dad? He makes his children and the kids around the neighbor these “healthy” alternative treats and he sneaks rocky road and candy bars for himself. He’s a fat hypocite.

I’ve got a bad feeling about this…

Mr. Peirce can you please make some strips with everyone wearing masks? (^_^)

Put your deep thoughts of amoung us here (please don’t flag me for a comment unrelated to the strip).

Again?

Just turn the lights off and act like you aren’t home.

no, no, no!
