Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for November 10, 1999
Transcript:
Teddy: So your report card was pretty bad, eh? Nate: Yes, and it's all Mrs. Godfrey's fault! Teddy: How do you figure? Nate: She's always yelling at me! She's given me low self-esteem! Nate: Low self-esteem means you don't feel good about yourself! If I don't feel good about myself, how am I supposed to do good in school? Teddy: Do well in school. Nate: Ah! See that's the sort of thing she says to me all the time!

If any of you are wondering why “doing good” is wrong in that statement, let me explain. Doing good implies you’re doing a good deed. Plus, doing WELL is the adverb form of good, with it describing the verb “do.”

You’d think it would be Francis correcting Nate’s grammar. On an unrelated note, the third panel has an interesting setup.

Nate if you complain all the time, that isn’t going to change. If you want something to change for you, you need to think about what you did wrong, instead of think “Oh it’s all Mrs. Godfrey’s fault for being a stinking psycho and purposely giving me an F!” or “I blame Old Fossil Face (Mr. Galvin) for not telling as the answers!” You really need to think…Oh, wait…Your Nate!

NaTe, The reason mrs Godfrey yells at you is for a few reasons: 1. Because she’s a psychopathic pile of trashAnd 2. Because your lazy, never do your work, you don’t try the best you can, make lame excuses, and blame everyone but yourself. And for a guy with low self esteem, you seem to have no problem constantly on a daily basis stating all the reasons why your a gift from for even though your not. You constantly bully Artur, you get mad and make a fuss for the dumbest reasons, and you have no respect for women at all, as you constantly say gross, crass things and whine about how lonely you are.
