Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for August 21, 2023

Now that’s disgusting

It’s that time of the year again folks

That fact is kind of interesting.

NOT AGAIN THROW THAT BOOK AWAY!!!

School is starting on Thursday for me.

School’s ON, boys!!

Francis going gray in the sideburns, panel four!

As I remember those days, when the holidays were about to end and school was about to start, what a horror!

Been ages since a Francis facts arc, so this sends me back! Could be fun, I’m open minded!

7\10, that fact was disgusting XD

If you ever wonder why I’ll be taking longer showers in the future, now you know. Nice going, Francis

Here’s a fun fact:

Taurine, a common ingredient in energy drinks like Monster Energy, is a very important ingredient in cat food products because when cats suffer from a lack of taurine, they experience digestive problems, hair loss, and possibly even go blind.

Did you know that you can distinguish men from women by the amount of lint in their belly buttons? See Medical Hypotheses (Volume 72, Issue 6, June 2009, Pages 623-625) by the of Georg Steinhauser of the Vienna’s Atominstitut der Österreichischen Universitäten in his seminal paper The Nature of Navel Fluff. Also see >

Ahhh shoot, here we go again.

(Man, it really doesn’t have the same effect when it’s censored.)

Time waits for no one. Don’t try to fight it.

If you look at panel 3, you’ll notice that Francis’ gap between his teeth is missing

This may be controversial, but I want a copy of Fantastic Facts

And that the bacteria there and in and around your nose is found nowhere else? It’s completely new!

Some of us loved learning stuff on our own, but couldn’t stand being taught stuff in school.

Ooh. The return of the Book of Facts.

Strip rating: 7/10 It’s been a while since we’ve seen that book.

Here we go again

Wonder wat Nate and teddy are gonna do about this

Hopefully they actually do something instead of just walking around saying to stop cuz we have seen that a lot before but if they actually do something to make it stop it would probably be an a tier arc 6.5/10 has potential but we have seen this before

…..Nate & Teddy think: Perhaps this is #68, showing up now?…….

wanna know what else is covered in bacteria… :D

What if your SO slurps booze from it?

Curse you Francis….

and we begin again…

Oh, good God, not this again…

Mornin’ lads!

Have a Marvelous Monday!

Did you know that you inhale an average of about 6.6 lbs (3 kgs) of dead human skin cells?

Did you know that once the average “Francis” gets his hands on a book o facts, he cannot shut up?

Only 67 kinds of bacteria? Not on a kid, that’s for sure!

And 57 different kinds of lint!

Back on track.. Daphne should be back by then so back to school has its benefits

Too much information francis….

6/10, the Fantastic Facts arcs in Big Nate are usually meh for me, but at least we are are gonna finally see them in school again!

My first day of school was today

68 if counting you…..

This gag’s been used a number of times already. Not judging, but i’m kinda bored.

gina is my least fav character.

Francis, nobody asked.
