    No. I know the answer. Arthur is bad at English! So he wrote to Jenny Date is adorable! Then he realized that wasnt good enough and ripped it up!

    No, I think the second line would go on way long like the note would say "Nate is absolutley annoying. But _________ is ABORABLE

    Those two dweebs: when they saw “ate” in there, they should have shredded it immediately, thrown it in a trashcan (in the next county, later on…..) and never mentioned a word of this to you-know-who!! But then, there would go this week’s storyline! ON WITH THE HILARITY!!!

    We all realize it’s gotta be Kate. But it’s gonna be fun watching Nate self-delude for a week.

    Or maybe it is someone else instead of Nate ending what an ate.

    These are the possibilities. Either someone’s name is Ate, Teddy and Francis are doing a trick on Nate, It wasn’t him, or It was him

    sigh Mr. Pierce….

    …I can see the punchline a mile away.

    You had me captivated with your storyline where Gina and Nate place a bet on him going without getting a detention for a week. That was Breaking-Bad gripping, and I cheered when Nate “won” and Gina showed her true colours, welching on the bet.

    As much as everyone enjoys a good running gag, a-la Charlie Brown kicking Lucy’s football, I just want to go on record and say….

    TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

    Maybe employ a little schadenfreude, seeing Gina getting in deep trouble – or better yet, Mrs. Godfrey stuck in a pickle, and no one except Nate can help.

    I know you exercise your moral right – nobody has the right to tell J.K. Rowling what to do with Harry Potter. She has exclaimed the right as an author to torture her characters as much and as often as she pleases….

    …but….

    C’mon. You can do better than this.

    Challenge accepted, Mr. Pierce?

    I think that is really says that Nate is absolutely horrible, not adorable. Or the note could be about someone named Kate or Tate.

    Teddy IS smiling, and Francis is good at keeping a straight face, so its probably a hoax by Teddy and Francis. OR both of them know what the note actually says.

    I didn’t mean to be rude (or snotty) but can ya blame me for wanting Nate to enjoy a win once in a while?

    And I suck at cartooning, so I can’t make my own cartoon, sorry.

    Anyways. Moral right affirmed. Sorry for misspelling your name, Mr. Peirce.

    I’m such a snark today.

    For those who are wondering: a person’s account is rendered invisible when that person somehow abuses the privilege of posting comments. It might mean hijacking the forum by repeatedly posting irrelevant stuff; it might mean using inappropriate language; it might mean being rude or abusive to another person. The moderators are particularly sensitive to it in the case of Big Nate, because there are so many young people posting and reading. We had an especially unpleasant few days awhile back when a few commenters got nasty, and then well-meaning commenters tried to respond in kind. Since then, things have been going very well and it’s been a pleasure to read all of the comments. Thanks to everyone for that!

    Welcome back to gocomics.

    Yeah, I use to comment EVERY SINGLE DAY ever since I joined in October, 2011. Several months ago, I was commenting cuss words and bad stuff like that. Then, I try to comment, but my comments weren’t showing up! I tried emailing gocomics and for all the cuss words I’ve been saying, my account was deactivated. So I left Gocomics after that. I’m now back and ready to start fresh!

    What i want is a situation where nate is in trouble, and Gina is the only one who can help him.Perhaps if artur, francis, and teddy suspect nate of trying to steal their girlfriends. The girls and boys are thrown into a whirlwind of anger, all directed at Nate. But it is actually sone other boy who has been leaving notes to the girls, and Gina knows. Sure, i have no future in writing, but who cares!

    “Dear Principal Nichols,”

    “Some student has gotten an F on a very important Social Studies test! Do you know who it is? It’s Nate, obviously! Nate is absolutely dumb, a bad b***h and the complete opposite of ADORABLE!! I hope he gets expelled from P.S 38, goes on a plane but the pilot throws him off due to his ugliness, falls in lava, and dies so we can throw a big party with pizza, soda, and twinkies, and then listen to Obama’s live speech on YouTube about Nate being a jerk and all the ways he hates him. Hope you expel him! If you do, you’re the best principal in the world!”

    - All The Students & Teachers In P.S. 38 except Nate
