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.

Tres Equis is more Rat’s style, I would think. The higher the alcohol, the happier he will be.

Last month I bought a twelver of Dos Equis Amber that was tainted with some awful-tasting chemical. It didn’t taste like beer.

I’ll only laugh if you share that beer.

That’s not what the Xs mean. The name came about because the founder of the company needed a cosigner.
(don’t blame me, that’s not my joke)

According to the label, the XX , Roman numeral twenty, is for the twentieth century, which was the new century back when they first went into business.

Rat’s bloated ego may lead him to think he is the most interesting comic strip character in the world, but there are numerous worthy—nay, worthier—competitors.

I never saw the ad… I feel so out of touch.

I don’t think your case was tainted, I think it always tastes like that… or it did back when I tried it about 20 years ago

Those ads are among the most repulsive ever. A gum wrapper is more interesting than that jag.
