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.

Alas, poor pig.

When this choice is made often the other half of the partnership is uninformed for weeks or months, if ever.

♬Celibate good times, come on!♬ (Had to get that out of my system.)

And to many people, it’d be a sign that the relationship is done. Of course, some people actually do still wait until after marriage to have sex. I just don’t think that Pigita is necessarily one of them.

There’s an old joke about some high religious leader, going to heaven, and calls for all the holy books ever written. Soon the angels hear him yellling and ask what’s the amtter. He yells out: They said to “celebrate” with an ‘R’!"

Never mind.

If she wants to be celibate, she can do that. Pig can do better. (And, to answer Susan Sunshine’s question, no, I don’t think they ever … um … “took their relationship to the next leve.”)

Don’t impotency and celibate mean the same thing? Well, I been celebrating for years!

Thanks! All my life I have thought the song said “Celebrate your time, come on!”
Oh those mondegreens…
It’s like that song “Used to Be” that says “Have another Chivas Regal, you’re 12 years old and sex is legal.” I always thought it said, “You’re 12 years old and Texas legal.” Like a Texas standoff, or something.

Pigita wants to be celibate. Funny, I thought that by dating Pig in the first place she had to realize that’s all she was ever going to be. Pig ain’t got a clue when it comes to sex.

Thank you for that question. That’s going to haunt me at night.

It may be Three Dog Night, but it doesn’t look like there will be any two pig nights.
