Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for August 23, 2023

Timing, man.

Is this week’s arc trying to match with the cartoon’s gross-out humor?

Das crazy

Another reason to not like peanut butter

Actually, 5 rodent hairs is what the government allows to be in foods.

Well there goes my appetite for peanut butter. Francis, you’re ruining everything!

Yesterday some people said that even if this type of arc is funny, it’s always the same joke.

I do agree, but I think it’s so rare to see it remains fresh.

Plus today mixes it up with a gross out joke that’s pretty decent!

7\10.

Not to mention that peanut butter is full of ingredients…ugh…

Protein.

Just searched it up its legit

wait a gah dayum minute….

Reminds me of a Brickleberry episode where his doc is talking to him about hair regeneration shots. If you take these hideously painful injections every day for 6 months, you can look like this. He shows him a pic of a guy with 3 hairs on his head. Steve says, " I’m gonna go thru all that for 3 hairs "? And the doc goes, " UP TO three hairs."

Francis needs to seek serious help.

Everything we eat and drink is contaminated. Can’t be avoided but hopefully it is minimal amounts.

You forgot the mention the insect parts.

BRO

WHY’D YOU HAVE TO SAY THAT WHILE THEY WERE EATING PEANUT BUTTER CRACKERS?!?

Strip rating: 10/10 That was actually hilarious.

Also, sorry for my inconsistency in commenting on every Big Nate strip every day. School/sports and IRL in general is being pretty demanding right now. But I’ll still try my best to use the free time that I have to comment on the strips…

Thanks, Francis, for ruining my life.

Maybe a Reese’s cup will help.

Ah, but what are the chances you’ll even notice?

You kidding me

But… why would you say that?! And when they’re eating the PEANUT BUTTER

For once Francis facts pay off

Francis, the all-around killjoy.

Just pray there’s not a section on hotdogs.

how about you get lost before someone does the favor for them.

Ew

Kosh?

THAT book is a real killjoy……….

By this time, I’d be making Francis eat that book…

How come Francis is smiling when he is causing his friends physical pain to even eat?

There’s ant legs and antennae in chocolate

Every

Chocolate

Ever

Breakfast cereals are known to be prone to that also. There is even a legal allowable limit to how many bug parts are allowed in processed foods. Best not to think about it.

google dork in the dictionary

Keep your facts out of our snacks!

I think it’s similar to the Big Nate strip of February 21st, 2019 (check it out). I can’t post a link because it turns into a greater than symbol for some reason.

poll: who is the weirdest character in big nate?

Good thing I’m allergic to PB.

So that’s what give to it the mysterious taste that everyone love.

These are great! I am actually reading a book of useless facts and this was one I just came across: Nook and Cranny - what’s the difference between the two? A nook is a corner, a cranny is a crack. You’re welcome. :)

Similar fun fact: "…every time you drink a glass of water, the odds are good that you will imbibe at least one molecule that passed through the bladder of Oliver Cromwell.” – Richard Dawkins, The God Delusion (2006)

8/10, really funny joke, similar to the hot dog one!

The best part about this week’s strip is that francis keeps popping out of nowhere

Who counts the rodent hairs in peanut butter. If there are too many than allowed do they pull them out? If there aren’t enough hairs than allowed to they add hairs? Just wondering. Got nothing better right now.

Cool!

I knew the peanut part since 2011

peanut butter is officially ruined for me
