Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for April 29, 2016
Transcript:
Mrs. Godfrey: Nate, did you actually think I'd believe this absurd fairy tale? Mrs. Godfrey: Concocting some ridiculous excuse involving the class gerbil is much worse than not doing the homework in the first place! Mrs. Godfrey: I expect more of you. Nate: Yeah. I expect more of me, too. Nate: Give me five minutes to think up a better story.

My daughters Cockatiel “Taxi” Loves Paper! He got ahold of her homework back when she was in seventh grade, and turned it into paper chips :) She turned in what was left of the homework (and some of the chips) the teacher laughed so hard he gave her full credit.

Ah Nate, after all this time you haven’t learned. But if you were to learn we wouldn’t have such a funny strip anymore.

The wisp of black smoke over her head indicates that her “Cripes” meter is up in the red zone!

That is exactly what I was thinking yesterday—expected a much more creative story from him. Nice going Mr. Peirce, very funny.

Nate’s last line of dialogue reminded me of a story worker at Dreamworks trying to come up with another idea. XD
