Paige Fox (Born September 17) is the middle child of the Fox family. She is a 14-year-old high-school freshman, and is always portrayed with her hair in a ponytail. 

A running gag through the series is that she has a huge craving for candy and other sweets. She shares her obsessions with her best friend, Nicole. Paige often has sleepovers at Nicole's house to avoid Jason's pet iguana, Quincy.

Although persistent in her pursuit of a boyfriend, she has almost never dated in the strip. A running gag is nerd Morton Goldthwait's interest in her, though she openly despises him. Paige has tried learning to cook to attract boys, but the food she makes is often inedible or burnt. One time, Paige burned all of her cookies so badly that Roger used them as a substitute for charcoal briquettes after Andy "directed him towards a stash."

Appearance[]

In the original comics from the 1980's her appearance was a bit different. Her face was longer, her hair was a bit different, her ears were drawn different, and her nose also was different.

Later as Bill Amend's drawing style changed Paige's design got updated to mostly the design we know today but with a slightly longer face.

Finally, her face became more straightened and she became more thin.

Personality[]

Like the rest of the family, she has interests expected of her age group. Her obsessions include fashionpop music, modern fads and trends, and attractive teenage boys.

Paige often falls asleep in class, partly because she stays up late. She is slightly more diligent than Peter when it comes to schoolwork, but has had her own procrastination-related nightmares (like school starting two weeks early and getting a schedule with only math classes with quizzes every day). Paige will often ask Jason for help with homework, usually in the mathematics of geometry. However, he often gives her intentionally incorrect answers or charges her money in exchange for the correct ones. Paige also has difficulties with English class, particularly when reading Shakespeare.

Although she is not flabby, Paige is also shown to be in poor physical shape, not participating in any outdoor activities or organized sports, and the smallest amount of physical activity is shown to wear her out. She once auditioned for the school cheerleading team in an effort to attract boys, which ended in a debacle similar to Peter's attempts to join the baseball team.

Paige also seems to have a lack of creativity as well. One time, when Jason was making fun of her by making strips shaming her she basically copied every single one of the strips but have Jason as the victim. As well as adding in tons of smiley faces.

She hates Jason and Tamagrouchy, and vice versa.

Favorite and least favorite foods[]

Paige loves ice cream, coconut chocolates, milk duds, gingerbread, mushroom pizza, whipped cream, cupcakes, and possibly hot soup.

On the other hand, she does not like strawberry ice cream, zucchini, celery, squash, eggplant casserole, and pumpkin puree.

Trivia[]

  • Despite the running gag in the strip that Paige never dates, she has gone to the school dance with Tommy, who is a guy that she likes, and vice-versa.
  • She is said to be "5 foot 2" in earlier strips.
  • She has blue eyes. This is shown when she describes herself as having "twinkling blue eyes" in a fairy tale she writes.
  • As seen in early strips, Paige has both Tom Cruise and Johnny Depp posters hanging in her bedroom.
  • Paige once wrote an English essay about her Uncle Ralph.
  • Paige once tried to scare Jason by putting worm guts in his gloves. This, of course, was a failed attempt, as Jason thinks worm guts are cool.
  • Paige is currently the only person in the Fox Family who’s hair color is unique. (Jason and Andy have the same hair color, and Peter and Roger have the same hair color)
