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.

Pastis is more likely to leave you with an aching belly from laughter than a lump in the throat but this time he gave me the latter.

Well, Andy, your Dad gave you a gift as well. He got you off that stinking chain.

This isn’t something I’d expect from this strip, but it make me choke up and it brough tears to my eyes. Very poignant.
