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.

All’s fair. I doubt that Goat will admit to knowing Rat.

That insensitive Rat!!! Openly discussing SPAM (Hormel’s wildly popular canned meat delicacy: pork shoulder & Ham) in front of PIG!!!
Its tantamount to glibly bantering about gill-netting with one of the Dolphins within earshot.

How can Rat & Goat be friends when they barely get along with one another?

To have a friend, you must be a friend.
Oh, that’s right. Rat isn’t looking for one.

In the “Pearls” world, this is practically an After School Special.

Spam for Hawaii! Everyone send spam to Hawaii! LOL. Seriously, Hawaiians eat a lot of that stuff.

Pig, breaking the Fourth Wall today? Good grief! When did he become such a sophisticate?

It’s not a touching moment anyway…
I see at least a foot between any two of them.

AS for Spam and Pig…. he eats BLT’s.
He even offered a cobbler some bacon a week or two ago.

Oh, Goat, didn’t you listen to the song? “Don’t ask me what I think of you. I might not give the answer that you want me to.” Oh well…
