Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for May 01, 2018

At least with Pig, the taxpayers didn’t pay for cone of silence.

What’s with the shading? Is Pig not only wearing the cone of ignorant bliss carrying the balloons of dark times ahead? Or maybe dark times behind? Depends on which outlook you prefer as which of those dark times you’re going to choose.

The official headgear of Evangelicals!

Where can I get one of those cones?

I wake up in bed with a big sense of anxiety. Then I wake up and realize the reason is still reality, have coffee and try to ignore it.

Where can I get one of those Cones of Ignorant Bliss? Hopefully they are cheaper than Xanax.

Our beloved Commander in Cheat has his own “Cohen” of ignorance!

I see Stephan has updated the Sphere o’ Splendid Isolation.

The nation is about to have a collective nervous breakdown with our medical system still under assault by the same scoundrels.

I know as long as you are thinking about politics, your anxiety level will be high as a kite by then. I think it’s gonna be a long long time …………………..

Maybe that’s the Republican plan— make reality so painful that block out the whole thing and stay home on election day.

HEE heeee… Hold my beer and watch this.

@SMSM

The president of South Korea has suggested that Mr Trump be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Wouldn’t it be a kick in the pants that he’d finally be on equal footing with Mr Obama?

(I’ll be over there….)

What’s to worry about? It’s just a narcissistic idiot in the White House with access to thousands of nuclear missiles and, worse, a Twitter account.

Pastis, you are a freaking genius. You have almost killed me on three separate occasions when I almost drowned from snorting coffee up my nose laughing at your strip.

Is that cone actually a “Make America Great Again” cap?

Or, you can just read (most of) these comics, and ignore the troll commenters and the news.

It’s been said that stupid people are the happiest people. What, me worry?

How To Cope in Bad Times:.

1) Go to God’s House for a visit..

2) Kneel before Him and thank Him for everything good on earth..

3) Ask forgiveness for my part in all the evil on earth..

4) Ask for His mercy on myself and all people even though we do not deserve it..

5) Thank Him for what Faith I have and beg to increase in Faith..

6) Thank Him for trusting me to adore Him in these times when so few adore Him..

7)Adore Him.

Damn, I could use one of those right now!

Where do I order one of those?

Pig could get rich selling them. I know I could sure use one!

And cheaper than a lobotomy!

Pig is doomed! Ignorance is not bliss. It’s just ignorance, and that’s going to hurt….

Rule #1, Don’t sweat the small stuff. Rule #2, It’s all small stuff.

Control finally put the Cone of Silence to good use.

Trump has already made such a complete fool of himself in the 72 years he has lived that he couldn’t catch up with Obama if he lives to be 150 years old. Class is Class, and Obama has it. Trump wouldn’t recognize it if it kicked him in the face.

That’s kinda cute….for a comic that’s usually dark.
