Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for March 22, 2023

Better now

hello

Your best friends are your harshest critics.

Cops sure aren’t.

Nate dissing teachers and saying they’re not people is a good reason why some people don’t like him. What does he think they are, aliens? Robots?!

This is starting to get no where if Nate doesn’t just scram.

…then what are they?

This says a lot about the importance of education on our society. And if by honest, he means insulting Gina for no other reason than she’s Gina, than he’s honest.

5.5/10 I really want to have faith in Peirce and hope that he won’t blow a good idea for an arc. Like how Hollywood got a extremely cool idea for a movie, and made Pixels. Gross.

Gina doesn’t really want to know.

i really hope we get a good ending like hopefully

I can’t believe what I just heard, Nate said something true, Dee Dee’s is too good (and polite) to tell him the truth.

Ouch.

Enjoyed this one, hope it keeps up all arc

Nate isn’t honest with Mrs. Godfrey? That’s a surprise.

How do you guys trust Nate to be a reliable source? Half of why he hates Gina is because she raises her hand a bunch, which is a nonissue.

So Nate’s a Scorpio. Sagittarius rising? Most likely.

Come on peirce, don’t blow this..

What about Mr Rosa?

Teachers are aliens, confirmed. As the child of a teacher, what am I?

Teachers aren’t people. Well, that explains a few things.

Strip rating: 7/10 I can’t believe how much I missed the rivalry between Nate and Gina.

Then what are the teachers? But Nate is telling the truth.

Then what are they

I honestly don’t know what’s worse – a willfully ignorant person like Nate who assumes he knows everything already, or an actual intelligent person like Gina who uses her brain to lord it over everyone else.

brooooo teachers got burned

…Gina’s cheeks are flashing pink….not a good sign…….

teachers, TV weathermen who don’t fill your meteorological expectations, and dads who aren’t EVER going to let you have a dog aside, Nate’s still more than prepped to feed Gina “the real skinny”, so………

He’s right toh.

If you are seeking advice as to your own likability, better to seek it from friends and even quasi-friends that know you and probably would be more honest than strangers/trolls on social media sights which have a very huge unsocial following. Don’t think that Nate would ever hurt you or be vicious to you…..

it’s time for this comic to get rid of nate. focus on the other characters. Big Teddy?

Nate bringing the pain

No one likes Gina

Nate is right, Dee Dee would never be able to honestly answer Gina’s question. He, on the other hand, might be able to list her flaws alphabetically, ending up looking like he’s obsessed by Gina…

even I know that sheesh I thought she was supposed to be smart

I’m with you on that one. Add parents to it, too. Haha

Depends on the teacher

I kinda like how emotional Gina is in this arc, it’s a nice change of pace. Outside of that, this is a very stock joke, even by last week’s standards, and it just doesn’t really strike me. Eh, 4/10.
