Remember when the series went on hiatus and it was nothing but old strips being posted everyday? With all of the rehash in recent new strips, it feels like the series is still on hiatus.
I don’t like this strip. It contradicts what we’ve been told. At the beginning, the paper said that Mrs. Godfrey would be teaching eighth grade, and nothing more was added. It implied that she would ONLY be teaching eighth grade. You may argue that the paper didn’t specify, or that Marty didn’t say. However, this is an official school document, and so it should’ve specified, and if Marty didn’t tell Nate, that would be bad parenting, as he hid something from his son that wasn’t necessary.
…that “Whhhheeeeeeeeeeeeoooouuuuuuuuusssssssssh” sound (not unlike what author Stephen King once described as “a large, foul-smelling flatulance”) is the sound of Nate’s balloon de-flating……..
Well, I haven’t commented here in a long time but it feels like a good day to.
People have already said this but I feel like at some point a long time ago this comic sort of lost its charm for me. I mostly read it out of habit these days.
I don’t say that to be hostile or anything like that, but rather just as an honest opinion. For the last several years I feel like there’s been a set loop that happens with almost every other story that this comic runs.Nate gets good news → He’s happy → its revealed nothing has changed/nothing good actually happened.
Just looking through the comments here can show anyone just how old this cycle has become, with most anyone being able to predict what would happen just because its happened so many times before.
I’ve been reading this comic for a long time, and I remember back when there used to be a bit more soul to it. Remember when Nate used to have talents? He used to draw, play chess, go to his comics club, and a million other things. Nowadays it feels like Nate’s only talent is being a jerk and getting punished for it, which has so little to offer after awhile.
I could be alone here, but I’d love to see a return to the creative and unique stories of years past, it was the reason I started reading this comic in the first place, but until then I’ll still keep reading, but perhaps not enjoying it as much as I once did.
Ok, so… Mrs. Godfrey teaches 6th grade. And it was a big deal that she was no longer going to teach 6th grade. And Nate had her last year. In 6th grade.
Oh, and who is surprised. What! No one? Well I was a bit surprised. I thought she was only going to be doing 8th grade for a third of the day: 2 classes; while Nate is in PE and Art.
I have just proposed to my lovely girlfriend, we are going to get married next month. Too bad Mrs. Godfrey is staying, but she has really been here from the start.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I though something good was going to happen to Nate finally!!!
I wish that occasionally the comic would move on with the story line and not keep everything the same. Maybe nate gets a dog or moves, or dates jenny, or teddy moves away, or maybe a new teacher
….AND you get to sit behind (or was that in front of?) Gina for the whole year, again! Hey, seat belt, schmeat-belt! Better don the full-body armor, Sir Galahad!!
