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.

Nice try, Pig. Nice try. The ol’ apron strings are longer than you think.

Exactly. Hanging out with Rat, you’d think Pig would be a bit harder.

Rat’s total lack of respect for Pig has just fallen to about eight new lows. Now that’s bad when you don’t respect someone and your disrespect just goes down below the basement.

So what? Who does Rat respect? Charles Manson? Burke and Hare? Idi Amin? Caligula? Vlad the Impaler?
