Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 09, 2019

Pig, you can take a nap without having to wave the white flag.

Pig, I guess if the world is against you, you can surrender.

Some people do, take a nap I mean, forever.

Pig should try “throwing in the towel”. Maybe that’ll work.

Today’s standards you increase tariffs waiting for the other side to blink.

Thus, the original inspiration for ‘Wake Me Up When September Ends’.

Oh, you can always wave the white flag. It doesn’t mean they won’t still run over you.

Pig has huge teeth!

Anymore, waving the white flag just shows ’em where to aim!

Waving the white flag in your everyday life means that you go take a forever nap, Pig. Never do that ever. Life is a gift. Don’t throw it away.

Is waving the white flag admitting you’re a loser?

I think that’s the Gulf War I “Mother of All Battles” victory flag.

Pig get rid of that bottle of "Debbie Downer " pills !

S-nap out of it, Pig.

Me too.

Retirement, there’s a nap for that.

Pig Van Winkle

Napping IS winning, you glorious Pig

Sometimes I feel exactly the same way

I’m reminded of the scene in the 1953 movie version of War of the Worlds, where the men approach the Martian ship with a white flag, only to get blasted by a heat ray.

Sorry Pig, there is no one to surrender to.

PIG is on the verge! Where Pigita when you need her?

Cue the Dido song…

dirt nap.

I declare ‘BANKRUPTCY.’

- Michael Scott

It’s called retirement. You didn’t give up but you still get to nap.

With today’s politics surrender is NOT an option.

Are you sure? I was really hoping to try this in a couple of years …

Stop the world I want to get off. Sorry, it’s been done.

More cheese.

Just give up and take the nap. You don’t need a white flag for that.

Go and nap anyway, Pig. No surrender! Just nap, and let the others slug it out….
