Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for February 02, 2019

Pig, please leave the room before your lactose intolerance kicks in.

Pig has a long history with cheese: http://pbs3.referata.com/wiki/Pig%27s_Cheese_Religion and http://pbs3.referata.com/wiki/Pig%27s_Cheese_Fetish

Can’t ruin Pig’s day after that!

I must move to burn calories, but I can’t move.

if it were a ham and cheese sandwich, Pig himself is the ham

Sorry, Pig, but cheese will definitely stop you up. You may not be able to get your get up and go for awhile!

I see from panel 2 that the theory has a lot of holes in it.

Pig will not be able to move in more ways than one.

Pig can forget about doing the 2nd. Most important daily thing, that’s for sure!’

Pig’s eyes say it all …. Croc Power !

I’m with Pig on this. Cheese for breakfast!

Haha! I just ate supper at 6:48 in the morning! I’m gonna be so produc- zzzzzzzz

That means going tot he bathroom, drinking coffee, and reading the online comic strips must be critically important to me.

“Carpe Edam” (Cheese the Day!)

No doubt written by someone heavily invested in bleu chip stocks.

These cheesy comments were too Gouda to resist!

With that out of the way, the rest of the day should be a Bries.

Now we can have a bacon cheese burger ;)

He needs to go have a Swiss movement.

It’s a work stoppage.

Where is the coffee if you are doing the most important things first?

Is Pig taking lessons from Wallace and Gromit?

Mmmm…ham and Swiss.

Top Priority. Cinnamon rolls. And, hot coffee.

I do the worst possible thing first. I get out of bed.

I was about to say that Pig must be a Wisconsinite when it occurred to me that beer is as important as cheese here.

Not the only thing that’s not going to move!

The real trick is distinguishing importance from immediacy.

I kinda like Pig’s way of thinking (if “thinking” is the right word for it). But I’d prefer leftover pizza, chilled out of the fridge….

Ahh—the power of cheese.
