Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for November 28, 2012

Transcript:
Pig: Hey, Rat, mind if we have a baby shower here? Rat: Who's expecting a baby? Pig: Nobody. Rat: Then why are you having a baby shower? Pig: He's dirty. Rat: Best you can do? Pastis: Pretty much.
My mom once made a joke when she was changing my little brother’s diaper and he peed straight up in the air, “Oh look, a baby shower” and to this day I still laugh whenever someone mentions baby shower. R.I.P. Mom
I know it’s too late for this year, Steph, but maybe next year you could release an all-pun PB4S calendar. It could include the all-time greats like “Dunk rye for me” and “A Hoffa they can’t re-fuse,” and the grand finale could be that one strip where Rat kills you before the pun could be told. How about it?

As a little kid, that’s what I thought a baby shower was.

Pastis is good, but Jim Scancarelli is king.

At least Rat didn’t feel the need to kill him this time. That always results in a weird discussion.
Sisyphos about 12 years ago
I actually laughed out loud when I first read this! What’s wrong with me?

Pastis is looking even more glazed in today’s strip. I think he needs an intervention.
Buckly34 about 12 years ago
Writers block, eh Pastis. It happens to the best of us!

Looks like there’s a smiley face on that baby’s torso.

cant wait for the bridle shower
OGeniusOne about 12 years ago
Now a good question is, does the baby prefer hot or cold showers? Cartoon Boy has that glazed look in his eyes again. Must be writing more puns.
catzilla23 about 12 years ago
Pun spelled backwards is nup, and a nup is a nup.
hariseldon59 about 12 years ago
You always know a pun is coming when you see Rat confronting Pastis in the final panel.
Number Three about 12 years ago
Leave him alone, Rat!
Stephan is an excellent cartoonist and his humourous puns are the best!

Pretty lame for the best you can do. Maybe tomorrow will be punnier.
Vonne Anton about 12 years ago
Mr Pastis: find yourself mindlessly doodling a lot lately, staring out the window thinking of other things?

With a shower you don’t risk throwing out the baby with the bath.
