Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for August 08, 2016

Is somebody going to grind Stephan’s bones?

Why isnt Steph dead yet lol

Fee Fi Fo Fum, I sense a farce within that bum.

thank you, Pastis, for the tongue twister

I don’t get it.

That was The Last Temptation for Stephan to pun-ish us. You know, I never could smell the blood of an Englishman. Have I missed something?

That smell? Eh. Put some old copper pennies in the dregs of a cup of Earl Grey and you’ve got it.

Faux shizzle.

Two, four, six, eight who do we really hate……….

Pastis: “No, Frog Applause is. One of the readers dropped it again”.

So pig is Tom Berenger (c.f. Platoon)…

Weary of the stupid puns.

I always tend to agree with Rat.

Willem Dafoe is American, he’s not an Englishman.

If the strip ends I would not have my morning grimace.

Rat is not amused.

Is the film going to be made in St. Louis? If so, we may see an Arch Foe Faux Foe.:Westward ho!

If you think the strip is dumb then why are you in it, Rat?

OK FOR THOSE WHO MIGHT STILL NOT GET THE GAG“Faux” is a French word, pronounced “FOE”. It means something like “false”. You may have seen “faux pas”, pronounced “foe paw”, literally, “false step”, or more “social mistake.”So, what he said was, “Willem da FOE FOE FOE”.

I love the puny alliterative strips.

Punny!

Punmeister Pastis!

Love it! One of Cartoon-Boy’s best ever paronomasias!

So? What if I’m not consistent. Does the World give a fig?

OK—this one caused a true [face-palm] for me.

Keep it up, Pastis! (Seriously.)

I like the strip for the last panel.

“Chew Chew Fee Fi Fum” – Look it up on YouTube : Goldie And The Gingerbreads (Genya Ravan)

Please don’t get him to strip!
