Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for March 21, 2015

People live fine. The better question would be how do you live like this, pig?

Oh, it is real tough. Layer after layer. I can hardly get on muni for the hens: layers all.

Seven-layer flake?

Pig’s reminding me of the “A Christmas Story” protagonist’s younger brother.

It works better if the layers fit. Clothes that are three sizes too big don’t help…

There’s an old joke in San Francisco that you can calculate the weather by finding tourists in shorts and count the rate that their knees are knocking together.

If you think that’s bad, Pig, just wait until you’re really, really, really in a hurry to go to the bathroom.

Looks more like Canadian bacon…

I wonder how Pig ever got that outermost layer buttoned? I didn’t layer up this way when I visited San Francisco years ago, and I won’t when I visit again within a year or so…. Pig got a bum steer and now is helplessly layered. At least he won’t be slugging anyone over the head with a baseball bat for a while. Lucky Goat!

he can afford SF? does he have a high-paying job? does he work at google? or, does he live in oakland?

What, no flowers in your hair, Pig?

As Twain said, the coldest winter he ever saw was in San Fran in the summer.

it is the only way to fly sprint airlines and save a few bucks

Apparently Goat has a cup with two handles.

I used to work in ‘Frisco, in a department storeI used to work in ’Frisco, I did but I don’t anymore.A lady came in for a cake, I asked her what kind she came for.“Layer” she said, and layer I did.I did, but I don’t anymore.

“everyone who has disappeared is said to have been seen in san francisco”

Adorable!

Move to Miami, Fla.

Pig is ready for the Haight but he will be broiled bacon in the Mission dressed like that.
