Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for July 20, 2023

But how fast will that be

Called it!!

I guess this is technicaly a different kind of joke, so points on that (and Nate’s final expression is funny), plus it’s super cute that they’ll write letters! I wonder if we’ll get to see a few of them, or only one in this arc. Hopefully that could be our romantic moment!

8\10.

Why does my device take 90 years to open sites

Letter-writing may be old-school, but anyone who doesn’t have access to electronics should be grateful that’s still around

I think I am the only person anymore who writes letters. Everyone texts anymore. I cannot stand it most of the time. For the rare one that actually responds in writing, it is so nice to get something in the mail that is not an advertisement or a polical ad (plus the bills).

I remember Nate used to write alot of notes, like that one note he wrote to Kelly- when they broke up-

Anyway this strip is another B but it’s a B+ cause it’s more progressive

oh cool she remembers that!

Of course Nate would write that.

Daphne coaching Nate on how to write good letters would be funny to see.

I thought she was going to say, “To Santa Claus.”

Ohhhhhhh, Yeah

Gotta milk that “pre-going-to-camp” story.

That would be so romantic! Sure, letters are slower than the Internet. But Nate may be able to send Daphne poems and drawings that she could hang in the room.

One summer, my best friend and I wrote letters to each other by cutting each individual word out of magazines and newspapers. (yes, we were bored kids of the 90s.)

I PREDICTED THE LETTERS YESSSSSS!

The letter will probably get there by the time camp’s finished

….it’s obvious that she takes notes……..LOTS of ’em………

does anyone else here dislike Daphne? I guess dislike is the wrong word but I feel like we don’t know anything about her- I mean other than read, what does she like to do? Who are her friends other than Gina? does she have any pets? I could go on. we know a little bit about her, but we don’t really know her hobbies, friendships, or even personality. She’s sweet, yes, but what else? She’s a plastic board that barely has any depth, despite having her be a somewhat main character for 2-3 months! She’s barely interacted with Teddy and Francis, or anyone else for that matter! I don’t hate her, and she IS cute with Nate, but I think Pierce could’ve thought this one through a little better

This Friday or Saturday, something special is coming up, and I’m not telling ya what it is!

By the way (thanks for the reminder bookworm94) where is Teddy and Francis
