Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
Is it not astonishing that it is Goat who is throwing a party?!
But I do get Rat’s reluctance to celebrate when his outlook is for more misery and suffering. Rat is a temperamental masochist, whose joy is being miserable….
Why is this site’s comment section so awful? The Big Nate one is filled with cringy 5th graders who think it’s a blog and Pearls Before Swine is filled with Lefties who drag politics into everything. It’s a humor strip. Why can’t we all just get along and not politicize everything?

Might as well have some punch, Rat.

Time to spike the juice – 2019 will serve Rat the punch

After January 1, years depreciate badly. Shiny New Years come with built-in obsolescence, so they don’t stay that way for long.

Can’t blame Rat. 2018 was pretty much a repeat of 2017

It’s not likely to get any better until after the 2020 elections.

You have every right to be concerned, Rat.

So, basically he doesn’t give a Rat’s a$$. What’s so suprising about that? :D

If 2018 was that bad, you can always celebrate its departure.

Pigs glasses appear to say 2009. Apparently he’s a little behind maybe a “big behind” LOL

Rat isn’t the type to celebrate New Year’s Eve or as he calls it “Amature Night”.
Odd Dog Premium Member about 6 years ago

Happy New Year! For those whose vision is not up to speed the character throwing the party is goat not pig.

Used a financial advisor for your stock investment, eh Rat?

I hope we have something to celebrate in 2019, this year has been miserable!
FredCapp about 6 years ago
So… where do you see yourself in two years?
Don’t know, I don’t have 2020 vision.

I used to identify more with Goat, but lately I find myself feeling more and more akin to Rat. 2018 is doing a real doozie on all of us, huh?

My favorite Rat moments are when he’s screaming and has that expression in panel 3 XD

Not going to do any good! 2019 has some suprises that will make you nostalgic for 2018!
