Teddy’s behavior here is a pretty clear indicator that he has never gone through a real breakup, before. His only “experience” in that department was quite anti-climactic, to say the least.
That was quite sharp compared to other strips, though it seems a bit unreasonable of Mrs. Godfrey to say that Nate should’ve known the real reason why she assigned him to tutor Chester.
Wasn’t it the rich entities that were to experience tax hikes in order for student loan forgiveness to be possible? This isn’t rhetorical, by the way. I’m genuinely curious.
I believe that Lincoln Peirce should consider aging the characters now, like moving Nate up to the seventh grade and beyond. I believe that there are many more comedic plots that can be written if the strip had a change of pace. While I cannot force Lincoln Peirce into doing anything he doesn’t want to, I think one thing is clear: Keeping the current status quo just serves to keep things bland.
