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.

I can see why Neighbor Bob hasn’t been with a girl since the fifth grade.

Now Pig will have to tag Rat to get rid of the cooties.

Not sure what a cootie is, but after getting Lymes twice and Babeosis once, I have a reeeeeal antipathy toward TICKs!

Maybe there are multiple “Neighbor Bobs”, like Bob the croc.

Bob, for $100 the cooties disappear.

Well, it’s clear why this Neighbor Bob (one of a long line of Neighbor Bobs, some of whom have died from living next to Rat and/or Li’l Guard Duck) is single and always will be, having the emotional development of a five-year-old! Kinda feel sorry for Gina and even for well-intentioned Pig, whose “good deed” has bombed!

Bob is an engineer?

Pig ’ll be in big trouble if Pigita ever finds out.

Even Pig is smart enough to know there’s no such thing as “girl cooties”…

In the world of Pearls, the only ones who can be “normal” are the ones who haven’t grown up enough to be contaminated by the weirdness. Hence, Bob and the croc kid.
