Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for April 11, 2013

doesn’t matter, nate. just watch a rerun.

first comment

No great loss. Not one of the better episodes.

He’s got to have one of the least efficient brains ever. That knowledge about the cotton gin takes up as much as 44 minutes of mediocre science fiction, in living color!

There was something like that in Dilbert some time ago. I don’t remember when. Humm, maybe if I forget how much is two plus two….

Nate’s brain——→ 2GB

What a terrible bargain.

“Man of the People”? Not that great an episode, Nate.

Remember your important info, Nate!

Concur, most Deanna Troi eps were forgettable.

You are right, in one of the early Holmes stories, Watson is astonished to discover that Sherlock does’t know that the earth revolved around the sun! And Holmes explained that since that information was useless to him as a detective, he would, now that he knew it, try to forget it as soon as possible!

But I think Holmes may have just been pulling Watson’s leg. He was known to do that.

Star Trek: Next Generation was one of the best series ever.

Sorry to hear that Nate.

Like The Lovin’ Spoonful used to sing: Did you ever have to make up your mind/to pick up on one and leave the other one behind/it’s not often easy, and not often kind/did you ever have to make up your mind……….??

That’s not true, Nate. I can remember what happens in every book I read, every movie I watch, everything I learn at school, and how to spell any word I see in a book as long as I have seen it at least twice. I still have room for more!

The Cotton Gin lead directly to the Civil War because of the huge increase in slaves that was needed. Okay, of course, because as the spinners tell us, the slaves were happy in their bondage. Oh, and the Civil War was NOT about slavery, it was about ‘states rights’. It must be so because I heard it from the wingnuts.

I always thought the cotton gin got its name when the inventor told his wife to “Keep your cotton-picking hands off my gin.”

Star Trek? You can live without it. You CAN’T live without The Simpsons, Family Guy, Modern Family, and other comedies

I totally agree with you, ghostkeeper. Sherlock had the same theory and thus dismissed Watson’s telling him that the earth revolves around the sun because it has nothing to do with his line of work.

Now that’s a pile that really needs to be purged!

I’m exactly like Nate, well, sort of. I mean, whenever I try to focus on something important, some OTHER random thing will come across my mind and I forget what I was concentrating on. Really frustrating. .

No problem that show sucked!

LOL

NO!!!!!…

NOT STAR TREK!!!

Star Trek: next generation season 6 episode 3 reads: When the Enterprise comes to the rescue of an ambassador and his “mother”, Deanna finds herself attracted to him, and seeks to comfort him upon her death.

wait,so you could remember a whole episode of something, but not one fact?

I’m pretty sure that’s been proven wrong

The brain can store 1 terabyte of information. It would take 300 years for the brain to reach maximum capacity

I’m pretty sure “Angry Birds” isn’t played vertically
