At its heart, Pearls Before Swine is the comic strip tale of two friends: an arrogant Rat who thinks he knows it all and a slow-witted Pig who doesn't know any better. Together, this pair offers caustic commentary on humanity's quest for the unattainable. Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams says that Pearls is "one of the few comics that make me laugh out loud." The strip has twice won the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben division award for Best Newspaper Comic Strip – in 2003 and in 2006.

So, Pig reads the speech-balloons just like we do! (He’s more literate than he lets on, apparently.)

Looks like Rat has learned a major lesson of life. If you can’t beat them, join them. :~)

It is a way to establish a “tone of voice”, which is itherwise difficukt to do in text.

It’s not what you think. That’s simply Rat signing the strip for The Artist Formerly Known as Pastis.

To Rat, “Hi How Are You? Have a nice day,” is a rude snarky comment. ,:-)

Amazingly enough, Rat does have a point…
