Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for November 11, 2012

OH GAAWWD, this is pure pun ishment

O.M.G.

Me thinks that Pig has some sour grapes too.

I should have seen that coming from the first panel.

GROANNNNNNN!!!!!!!

Yep

Ouch…

I get it: “can’t elope” (sigh)

Who saw that coming?

Cantaloupe, Dad hid the ladder.

She sure seems melon-choly today.

All of a sudden I want to eat a muskmelon…Mmmmmm…..

From Frog Blog (11/06/12)

Oh, no, Pig! What have you done? Poor Betty is down; you may have killed her! —This is berry serious; don’t laugh!

what’s next a melon collie baby? anyway, why do people need a wedding? if 2 people love each other and want to be together, at least a document is all they need. but, why a wedding?

This strip just made me want a cantaloupe…too bad they are out of season

How about a lovely pear?

This one was way too obvious from p1. How about a new character named Melon Collie if you musk use jokes like this?

Oops I see someone already used melon collie before me!

Cantaloupe? Then lettuce turnip and pea.

I know we cantaloupe but honeydew be mine. We’ll make a peach of a pear.

Never too far for a bad pun. Laugh out loud.

You just know the pun is coming, but I expect one of his long winded ones…got me good with the one word pun!

You know your onionsLettuce supposeThis beets them allDon’t turnip your nose!

old Burma Shave slogan

That’s brutal, Pastis. Where’s Rat with his club?

In a complete reversal, we’ve gone from fruit to nuts . . .

This one’s almost as bad as Annie Mae the sea anemone enemy.

Poor Betty; Ca-sobbing by the melonstand.

Poor Betty!

5th Panel is PRICELESS!

LOL xxx

Going to organize a lynch party to string cartoonist boy up….

I actually saw this one coming, for once. Didn’t stop me from suffering tho.

I know we make a peach of a pear, I know we cantaloupe but please honeydew.

Well, you guise should have voted for pun control. Don’t say I didn’t warn ewe awl.

Rat should be about to kill Pastis by now.

Can we leave the politics out of it, please? President Obama won fair and square – get over it.

All together now . . .let’s give him a

The last 2 cantelope I bought were horrid and watery – no flavor so I wound up throwing them out after going to all the trouble of preparing them for storage in the frig.

Well it’s your own fault Neighbor Betty, you had to know that was coming.

BTW- A big THANK YOU to all of our Veteran’s and their families for their sacrifices.

Super funny! Thanks for the my morning laugh.

Life is butter melon cauliflower.

I’ve been told that lettuce is a very permissive vegetable.

Don’t incur the wrath of grapes for when you step on one, it lets out a little wine.

I stepped into that one like someone walking through a cow pasture with a head cold.

Appropriate “Veteran” gag for today…

I have some advice, Mr. Pastis; MOVE OUT OF YOUR MOM’S BASEMENT!!

A standard pun, and a favorite of the melon collie.

Good one, Steph :)

Why isn’t Rat strangling Steph right about now?

Knew what was coming but laughed anyway.

I accidentally read the big punchline in panel 5 early on and still didn’t see it coming!

OK, I admit it. I laughed. Oh dear.

. You’ve been trying and trying and trying to use that, haven’t you, Pastis?

OK. I knew A pun was coming … I just didn’t know WHICH pun. Where does Pastis keep getting these?

Isn’t Rat supposed to be hurting Stephen about now?

That was a long walk but the joke was worth it.

groan..

Try the Honeymoon Salad — Lettuce alone; no dressing.

It’s been years since I’ve been able to say “cantaloupe” alone. It’s always: Cantaloupe, gotta have a big expensive wedding. I guess my brain’s been irrevocably inpundated with silliness. Is that wrong?

LMAO

Well, at least her future hubby doesn’t yet have to worry about a honey-do list.

What’s the problem? Her niece likes the impala she saw, so she sent her auntie a picture: antelope!

Cantaloupe – I’m already married.

As soon as I read the first panel, I knew what the pun would be

You are a sick person!

Cantaloupe, lol

They used this in Aladdin….You Cantaloupe, but oh, Honeydew!

yep cruelity in form of humor easy target i’m cutting back on a lot of strips i don’t find cruety funny.

Hey, some of us like cantaloupes!

“Can’t elope” lmao

Why don’t melons get married. Because they cantaloupe
