Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for June 29, 2021

“Pig, could you at least not do this in front of us? You’re making us feel uncomfortable.”

Check that: “Am I the healthy one?”

Pig has cool hands.

Be a pessimist . . . and you’ll never be disappointed.

Someone told me that Pig was a real S-O-B, though I don’t know why he felt he had to spell it.

He’s the healthy one. You cry, and then you feel awesome when you stop.

Love ya Pig!

Ahhhhh, lovely lachrymose catharsis! Do too much of it, though, and your brain gets soggy!

Someone forgot to take his healthy-emotion-pills today.

Has to be better than holding all the sadness, disappointment and anger in and waiting for a trigger to set it all off in an explosion that could get Pig his Worhol “15 Minutes of Fame” in a very negative fashion.

Let it all out, Pig.

I do prefer bacon from healthy pigs.

He heard the price of pork was falling!

Pig you should not touch your eyes after working with onions ;-)

You needs to stop watching cooking shows, Pig.

Pig is crying? What a ham!

Catharsis is a necessity in growth. This could also explain Rat.

Crying out of tension, frustration, anger, laughter…either way it’s great to relieve yourself….RAT needs to cry in his beer though….

A traveling salesman drove up to a farmhouse just as a three legged pig ran by. Spotting the farmer nearby, the salesman walked up to him and said, “Why does that pig only have three legs?” The farmer rubbed his chin and said, “One day I was out plowing the field, when my tractor tire hit a gopher hole and rolled over, pinning me underneath. I lay there for hours. Just when I thought I was a goner, that pig came running up to me, burrowed under the tractor, crawled under it, and raised the tractor up enough for me to pull my legs out. I was amazed.”The salesman said, “That’s unbelievable, but that doesn’t explain why the pig only has three legs.” The farmer replied, “You don’t eat a pig like that all at once.”

“That’ll do, Pig.”

This little piggy went “wah, wah, wah” all the way to the second panel.

But we get the very best of you Pig.

I thought perhaps he realized that no matter his intellect we like bacon and that is his destiny, to be bacon. Or ham. Or pork chops. ..etc..

I’m with Pig on this one!

These people have problems

I’m having a pig day myself. Wah!!!

Christmas in July on Hallmark will do that to you.

Those are some of the worst drawn hands I have ever seen in a comic strip. (But keep up the amazing work).

Rat, unfortunately, is disgustingly healthy!

Wow, surprisingly deep from pig, this is a pretty good strip, I’d say a 4/5, better than most new ones

We just saw this on an old “Everybody Loves Raymond” last night!

Sometimes you just have to let it all out. Kind of like a cleanse.

Pig is better adjusted than Rat. But that isn’t hard.

Pig is weak.

Weak is good.

Rat is being profound today….
