Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for June 14, 2009

Transcript:

Rat says, "Hey, Pig, want to play 'Bobbing for seeds'?" Pig says, "What's that?" Rat says, "You hold a watermelon and suck as many seeds as you can out of it in one minute." Pig says, "Oh, yeah! Lemme try!" Chomp chomp suck chomp chomp suck Ptui! Ptui! Ptui! Rat says, "Not bad. Not bad. Alright, now we try a new game called 'Farce.' It's like 'Bobbing for seeds,' but here, instead of a dry watermelon, we make it harder by oiling it up." Pig says, "It'll be too hard to hold." Rat says, "Yeah. That's why we call it 'Farce.' It's just a huge comedy of errors." Pig says, "What if I can't do it with the oily one?" Rat says, "We go back to the other game." Pig says, "So if at 'Farce' I don't suck seed, try dry again?" Rat says, "Have some pride." S.Pastis
