Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for December 29, 1996

Transcript:

Nate: Sorry this is a couple days late, Francis! Merry Christmas! You'll never guess what it is! Francis: Oh, I'll take a shot at it...On Christmas day, you suddenly realized that I had given YOU a gift...but YOU hadn't given ME one! Guilt quickly set in! So in desperation, you came up with a solution! You'd give ME one of YOUR Christmas gifts! Not one of your GOOD ones, of course! One of your LAME ones that you didn't even WANT! Nate: That's the most insulting thing I've ever heard! Francis: So you claim this gift is genuine? Nate: Of COURSE it's genuine! Francis: Well, let's see...a pencil case. How nice. ...And say! There's a card tucked inside! It says: "To my favorite nephew." Nate: Well, I've always thought of you as family... Francis: Thanks, Aunt Thelma.
