I was at a conference once at a fairly upscale hotel once, haven’t breakfast with friends.
The server brought me my coffee; I raised the cup and just as I was about to take my first sip, I noticed the lip prints on the cup had a shade of lipstick that I never use, mainly because I don’t wear lipstick.
The following morning we all went for breakfast elsewhere.
Pastis has drawn spaghetti before. Why couldn’t he just always have the characters eating spaghetti at the diner? Or just draw a big blob like Watterson did in Calvin and Hobbes.

is Rat afraid the fingerprint contains the coronavirus or something?

The problem is not so much that a finger touched the plate as what else was it touching to leave the print.

In other Pearls Before Swine news, Mr. Pastis’ Twitter feed modestly points out that he called this year:

I had pancakes at IHOP and the top one had the waiters thump print in it. I was hungry, so I ate around it,
