Sarcasm at it its finest (Nate) and hypocrisy at its worst (Dad who when he trick or treated as a child, wanted those peanut butter cups or Snickers as much as any kid)……..
There WAS a time when apples or oranges were considered a legit Halloween treat – the problem is fruit is so easy to find nowadays kids think it’s too ‘common.’
I was thinking I figured out another reason why Nate’s dad probaly buys bad treats. I remember a long time ago Nate’s dad bought candy but he ate it all. Nate’s dad may buy bad treats so he won’t eat it
here, marty, this is for you… sar·casm /ˈsärˌkazəm/, noun, the use of irony to mock or convey contempt. “his voice, hardened by sarcasm, could not hide his resentment”

Jeez Marty is dense, he may be the reason why Nate can’t detect sarcasm because he can’t himself!

Dont ask Nate to clean the house when it gets egged and/or TP’ed Marty, he warned you

God. why does he reuse these story arcs from a few years ago? This is like, the 7th he has done this.
For the first time ever, imma rate this comic.
4/10 for unoriginality.

Mango chips would be okay as halloween treats. They’re pretty good, but he’ll probably still get egged.

So much sarcasm, Nate! So disrespectful! If it was up to me, he would’ve been in time-out a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time ago.

When I read other GoComics strips, they’re really funny and are really good. And then I see Big Nate with another halloween candy arc.

We have 54 bags of Pirate’s Booty; there really are kids who like something different. We also have chocolate for the traditional group.

Actually dried mango chips are delicious… sweet and tangy. Much better than fruit rollups, which are mostly dehydrated pear.
