Nancy by Olivia Jaimes for January 04, 2019

Ask Jeeves!

“My ranting about how much I hate Olivia Jaimes is over; for a while. I will instead now passive-aggressively cite old articles about Ernie Bushmiller to show you how bad I think Olivia Jaimes is by comparison. With dollops of tiresome pedantry. #wakeuppeople #wakeupwakeup” – Alexikakos

If anyone’s curious, the three top sites Google threw up were

Nancy should read the GoComics boards. Most of life’s questions are answered here. Admittedly, mostly through negative examples, but answers nonetheless.

Nancy’s getting a little chubby here, huh?

When I was watching football last Sunday (before my team tanked against the Bears and ended their season), the promos for Apple always have the announcer call out “Hey Siri, who are the leading rushers” or something similar… my phone and iPad will ALWAYS answer :-P All season long…

Silly Nancy. Everybody knows that Dumpster’s Greasy Pizza is the answer to EVERYTHING!

The modern equivalent of the Magic 8-Ball?

Actual footage from my life. Also, I’m into that green couch.

The little “type type” is too cute!

Ms. Jaimes: If you are reading these, please know that most of us appreciate your work. It is thought to take on an iconic cartoon like this one. But you are doing a great job!

Checks out, but I’m generally more supine when I’m that introspective/existential.

Woah! Another amazingly astute, important, and insightful set of panels today. This one has to find a place in my top five of all-time Jaime’s best “Nancy” comics.

The truth in the panels, the irony in the panels…. damn impressive!

Knowledge is Power. Wikipedia is Weakness.

I am living for Nancy’s adorable double chin.

Googling what she does gets some interesting results…

I got my copy of How to Read Nancy (publshed 2017) and I can see the impetus behind the Gilchrist→OJ move by the publishers. Back to the roots.

Nancy’s socks are Hanes.
