OK, next let's catch up on Big Nate. I really hate this conclusion because they clearly showed Nate doing his homework earlier. Plus a lack of perfect knowledge is easily papered over by saying you only recently became a fan. Also, I stand by my earlier statement that the ideal ending would have been to have the fad fall out of favor just as Nate gets on the bandwagon only to have him realize to his horror that he now unironically enjoys her music. It would be a fun little joke to bring up from time to time that would humanize him just a little bit. Why on earth does Nate have the local weatherman's phone number?

Also I might start posting a Norwegian comic I discovered recently called Dunce for a bit. Mostly because I like the art and want an excuse to keep up on it. It seems to be about a dumbass living with his son and dog in the middle of nowhere. Unfortunately there's no official release in English (he's working on getting his books localized apparently) or centralized hub of old comics that I've been able to find so I'll be going off the random one-offs that get posted on social media. Let me know if this gets annoying. It doesn't seem to be plot-driven so I don't think this will cause any problems with understanding the continuity. If his collections ever get a proper US release I'll start again and post them in the proper order.

His updates lately have been great. He's really doing well in his career and has a lot of projects and potential projects in the works. He's such a nice guy I can't help but root for him.

FINGERPORI This pun is probably incomprehensible to almost everyone. Lauri Törhönen is a Finnish movie director, and THE UNDRESSING is apparently his best known movie, where "a prominent minister and his old flame share a night in a hotel room. Through passion and rejection, they undress the past together". But in this case it's Lauri Törhönen being undressed.

Fingerpori Mennä läpi = to get through (either literally or figuratively, like in English) Mennä heittämällä läpi = idiom for "to get through very easily without issues" Heittää = to throw Mennä heittämällä läpi = to get through by means of being thrown/to get through just by throwing Using the word 'katsastus' ('inspection') to refer to the building instead of the practice is slightly odd, pretty much the same way it'd be in English.
