Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for March 17, 2023

Back to the drawing board!

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day

Even if Nate was being a fraud, they were undeniably being way too critical. They got all suspicious because he referred to a song as an album.

7/10

This is a stupid arc

“I’ve tried, but that’s just somethin’ I can’t do”

Nate really should’ve paid attention to the album/song titles and lyrics when doing that 10-album Taylor Swift marathon. That really is sad because I’ve memorized a lot from the 10 albums by my favorite metal band Trivium.

hmmm well them being a bit too critical as a bts fan i don’t go around asking fans lyrics cause well u forget i mean i think of them as a fraud if they don’t know who’s who but i guess you could expect nate to do something like that

This is just as bad as getting mad at someone for wearing a shirt with a band they don’t know about it. And will they ever stop gatekeeping Taylor Swift? Everyone in this strip is unlikable.

3/10 This is getting worse and worse. The plan is failing, but it’s so boring.

This is not funny, and there’s no wrong way to be a fan of something. Well, except acting like a snobbish jerk like these two girls

Girls were way too suspicious. One mistake for an album is not enough to assume he isn’t unless all Swifties are so connected to Swift’s Songs. 5/10

Cue failure trombone music

Insert joke about Nate being an impostor here

" For breaking me and calling it love."

What happens in the dark always comes to light, Nate

“… I’ve tried, but that’s just somethin’ I can’t do.” Yeah, I knew something like this would happen.

Strip rating: 3/10 This arc was too predictable.

it had to eventually happen

4/10

Just say you’re a new fan and it’s going to take time to get up to date on all her music.

…Yesterday Nate stepped in the proverbial doo-doo…..today he’s sinkin’ in it……….

I told you guys this would happen but I can’t even brag because it’s so predictable

Busted

Busted….

How predictable…

Busted! Oh, and happy St. Patrick’s day everyone!

Thought this would happen

The jig is up!

Outed…

I always have to suffer the pain of seeing people with Def Leppard shirts but not knowing the band

Crash, and burn.

They should quit gatekeeping!

4/10 this arc had potential but its going downhill

Dang, busted! The arc probably won’t have a good ending

6/10 arc cool
