Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for November 02, 1996
Transcript:
Nate: Well, Dad, I caught you red-handed eating my Halloween candy. Clearly some form of punishment is in order. Dad: Well, gee...perhaps I could do all our laundry...clean your room...provide you with an allowance...prepare your meals...oh, but WAIT a minute! I forgot that I DO all those things for you ALREADY! Nate: Tell you what...just this once, I'll let you off with a stern warning. Dad: Wise move.
I hate when parents do this. They do something unfair to you, then they just remind you that they are keeping you alive.
