Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for April 20, 2022

given the pace of this arc, it’ll probably continue next week or have an abrupt ending.

6/10

First! (Just wanted to test a theory, I’ll comment later, I promise!)

How sharp are tacos. And tortillas are kind of soggy, so unless it was a frozen taco or something, how can it create a permanent scar?

5/10 Average strip. Not good, not bad, just average. When will they serve justice?

Looks like Coach John doesn’t have the same control in the lunch room as he does in the gym…

Interesting that Nate knows what a liposuction scar looks like.

Story arc idea: Marty finally agrees to let Nate have a dog, but Marty said it has to be a mutt from the animal shelter, much to the chagrin of Nate who specifically wanted a purebred. When his friends hear the news, Francis tells Nate the advantages of adopting a shelter dog, but Nate still isn’t sure yet. He then thinks about it for a few days, then to everyone’s disappointment, he changes his mind about getting a dog

Where are you guys from? anyone from Dubai?

How?!

coach john seems more sanitary ngl.

belly button

poll: what do you think is the sharpest or spikest food?

ussless fact: hot water will turn into ice faster than cold water.

me fact: i can play fur elise on panio and tetris theme on saxaohone.

8/10 sure buddy, keep telling yourself that. Also why does Nate know what that looks like? This one actually made me laugh.

Poll: what are your top five movies?

So when are they really gonna start doing work 4.5/10

oh…that must’ve hurt! 10/10, Coach john is more smooth and calm. Maybe being a lunch aide soothes him

Poll: where did you think pickles learned how to do all these things? A: Francis B: its in the blood

I actually had an interesting idea for a comic.

You know how Nate dealt with the problem of having the vending machines replaced with healthy food? Well, what if that happened with his dad at work? The whole story would be based on his struggles and stray away from Nate always being the main protagonist. It’s just a thought.

Another good argument for making tacos with a soft tortilla, as we do South of the Rio Grande. They are harmless and food-fight friendly.

how does nate know what a liposuction scar looks like???

I know it’s a scar but it looks like a belly button

if you are in the scavenger hunt, go to november 4 2002

Geez, “Line of duty”. Its a middle school cafeteria. That sounds a bit excessive coach. Nice arc so far, but it looks like its starting to get stretched out a bit.

5/10

I’ve seen plenty of tacos, but I’ve never seen one be that sharp. Also, that’s your belly button, Coach John!

Did that duty for 5 years. It took into the third year for me to get over the culture shock. Then it was smooth sailing. Although two 13 year old boys got into it one day. Hoowee. When I learned how to navigate the tweens, I really liked 99% of the kids. The 1% should have been carted off to military school for some serious butt whupping to their attitudes.

Taco Tuesday must’ve not gone well.

Are you sure there wasn’t a knife or something in the taco? Are tacos dangerous now?

Poll2: Brekinridge Puffington lll or Mason (only answer if you know who both are from lives it up)

The coach is right! Public Schools are zoos! …

Now this is funny! 5/5 we’ve got a winner here folks!

hi

Definitely WASN’T liposuction……

Coach John is still being SOFT??? When will we see the “LINE UP FOR WIND SPRINTS, SCRUB”

I see no scar… and based on other comments, I’m guessing “liposuction” is a weight loss process thing?

Si tengo razon, parece para ser entrenador sigue siendo muy gordito XD

flying tacos?

wonder what type of taco that was..

6/10

I thought it was his navel…

I thought that was his belly button

Nate and Teddy were walking down the seventh graders hallway, yakking away after their free period, when Nate noticed that there was one locker on the long empty hallway that was opened a crack.

Nate had heard rumors about secret tunnels through the school in the lockers.

“Teddy, look,” Nate whispersed, pointing to the locker.

Teddy looked over and saw the locker.

Nate and Teddy exchanged excited looks, and they knew they were both thinking the same thing.

They quietly sped walked over and took one last 360 degree turn to make sure there was no one else on the hallway.

The coast was clear.

They opened the locker all the way, excited for if there was a tunnel or something, but what was inside was shocking.

There was a safe inside the locker, on the top shelf.

Nate and Teddy were a few minutes late to Art. Mr. Rosa asked them where they were.

“We, uhhh,” Nate said.

Teddy crossed his arms to think, and noticed the white bandages on his hand.

Teddy said “I was at the nurse, getting bandages for my hand, and Nate came with me,” he said, holding up the gauze-wrapped hand.

“That’s okay,” Mr. Rosa said.

Nate and Teddy walked over to their usual table where Francis was waiting for them.

“Okay, I know that you wrapped your hand in those bandages yesterday when you cut your finger making the wooden cars for Junior woodchucks, so what’s up?” Francis asked.

Teddy recapped the story while Nate sat, thinking.

When Teddy finished, Francis was astonished, and a grin broke out his face.

“I was studying in the library—something you guys clearly didn’t use your free period for—and I think I found the first number!”

To be continued

How does he know what that is?

Who thinks that in SLOTLT Thomas’s smile looks sexy?

It’s my pfp

BIG NATE: DATE MISTAKE

Chapter One

Beautiful brown hair, a perfect button nose, and a voice like that of an angel’s. He could look at her all day, thinking about how great it would be if they…

“Hey Nate? You still with us?” a voice rang out.

Nate snapped out of his daydream and shook his head. “Yeah, yeah, sorry. Just trying to figure out this one math problem.”

Francis and Teddy shared a look. They had gotten together with Nate to work on their homework together at Francis’s house, especially since they had a test coming up the next day. Not that Nate was contributing much since he kept on daydreaming.

“Alright, Nate. What’s on your mind?” Francis asked.

“Nothing much, although I think Mrs. Godfrey has gained more weight than usual.” Nate said.

“Dude, that’s not what you were thinking at all.” Teddy said.

“How can you tell?” Nate snapped.

Teddy leaned back in his chair and smirked. “You’ve got that certain look in your eye when you’re thinking about a girl you like.”

Francis couldn’t help but let out a teasing whistle.

“Alright, alright, so I like this one girl in Mr. Staple’s class.” Nate admitted while smiling.

“Who’s the unlucky victim this time?” Francis asked.

“Hey!” Nate snapped angrily.

Francis held up his hands in defense. “Nate, every time you try to flirt with someone you come off as annoying or downright embarrassing.”

“He has a point, y’know.” Teddy stated matter-of-factly.

“That’s why I’ve got an idea on how to get her to go out with me.” Nate said with a mischievous twinkle in his eye.

Francis and Teddy looked at one another, and wondered what kind of shenanigans Nate was going to get himself into.

“Well, can you at least tell us her name?” Teddy asked, turning back to face Nate.

“Her name is Ella. She’s new here.” Nate said as he leaned forward to rest his arms on the table.

“Well, what’s your plan?” Francis asked, tilting his head.

Nate smirked. “You’ll see…”

Sometimes eating that food is the more dangerous.

FOX News (I’m so sorry kid, but I don’t want any trouble for tomorrow)

This is an emergency podcast, because I haven’t seen anyone podcast, and I really want to try and avoid an argument, so here we go again…

Today has been really interesting.

For on topic comments some people think it’s average, like around 6-8/10. This was a mediocre strip, but it’s a bridge for the nest 3 days.

For off topic comments, we have a return of fanfics! Feel free to check that out, they’re very interesting & creative. Also, a few polls have popped out, but an incident deleted one of them. Hopefully the poll pops up again!

I might talk to Sonic ‘bout making this evening news, since I’ve noticed that I mostly post these in the evening.

That’s all I have for today. Nos vemos en Viernes :)

…..aw darnsies, it was a food fight…….

What keeps his pants up?

a belly button?
