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.

Pig, you should re-consider the company you keep.

He’s from the Albina District in Portland?

I’ve conceived of a character shooting target silhouettes in the groin area … and pronouncing, ’That’s one target silhouette that won’t be producing any little target silhouettes!
(Does silhouette really have to have such a weird spelling?)

Ow! First kick – to the pork chops. Second – right in the belly bacon. That’s gotta hurt.

I’d like to roll that model right into the nearest ditch – kick him to the curb, so to speak.

Whatever happened to Guard Duck’s little friend? He and Rat Jr. could pal around together.

It does indeed, it started life as a French word.

A mere shadow of its former meaning.

Ouch! Ouch!
That’s got to hurt; looks like Pig got it in the oompa-loompas again. How can he continue to live with Rat? (I mean that in the literal sense.)

Just teaching him to kick around the old pigskin! What’s wrong with that? Apart from still being on the pig, I mean.
