Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for December 30, 2019

I love monopoly

Imagine being the Thimble. Being isolated only to be replaced. It’s sad.

I have a special Monopoly set with gold pieces (including an exclusive train piece)

as long as the race car is never voted ‘out’

RIP thimble, we will miss you, but some Monopoly players who want more fun tokens won’t: https://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbeforeswine/2013/04/11

I think normal Monopoly’s boring. When I play I like playing Sonic the Hedgehog or Mario Kart themed

The thimble and iron were removed because they represented objects associated with traditional female domestic roles and were generally avoided by male players. The cannon was removed in response to the anti-gun outcry.

Only the Thimble minded make sport of “Elmer Fudd Thindwome”!

Thimble? Coffee filter? What happened to the Fez?

So is “rethpect” a tribute to Rodney Dangerfield? Props!

The Thimble is the lamest piece. I like the car, battleship, dog, and horse in that order. I would sometimes put the hat on the head of the dog.

The monopoly strips are always so much fun to read. I hat when he skips a year (or 3). Side note: I am not “back”. I read the strips here everyday, I just rarely comment anymore.

What if the TOP HAT IS GONE??

I’d love to see Nate play “Monopoly” against Ted Forth! Now, that would be the Match Of All-Time, with those two “I-play-by-my-own-special-rules” types!

I cannot play Monopoly! My ADHD will not let me sit that long!

Didn’t they add a Cat as one of the new playing pieces? Nate’s going to LOVE that. :D

I thought young nerds like them would be playing the Star Wars or Adventure Time version…

Ahhhh, I remember the thimble.

I hope Francis got one of the Special Editons, like Cheaters Edition, Pokèmon Edition, Star Wars edition, Longest Game Ever, etc.

I got my sister a Monopoly game for Christmas.

It’s the Cheaters version.

niccccccce

Didn’t Nate try to manifest the power of the thimble in one of the strips?
