Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for December 03, 2012
Transcript:
Goat: Hey, Pig. D'you get a new hat? Pig: Yeah. I've always liked cows, so I decided to show my financial support my financial support for them by buying their hats. Goat: Pig... Those are the university of Texas Longhorns. Pig: These cows attend college? Goat: Let's start over. Pig: Let's these are very privileged cows.

Can’t goat just let it go? Just accept Pig for who he is. Just once he could let Pig keep his misconception and his dignity.

After they attend, UT becomes their al-moo mater.(sorry, that’s the best I could come up with)\

They are privileged, Pig, they don’t need your support.

And mountain lion kitty cats attend Brigham Young University as well as Washington State University. (FYI, a non-member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints can attend any of the three BYU campuses: Provo, Utah; Laie, Oahu Island, Hawaii [owners of the Polynesian Cultural Center] and Rexburg, Idaho [formerly known as Ricks College]).

If he likes Texas, get hats for THESE known teams: Texas State Bobcats, Texas Tech Red Raiders, Texas A&M Aggies, UTSA Roadrunners, or the UTEP Miners.

My younger daughter went to UNT in Denton. Go, MEAN GREENS! (Had to look that one up.) Also went to Univ. of Miami in FL. Sometimes the Hurricanes do well enough to be the only winning team left among our almae matres (had to look that pluralization, too).
Strod about 12 years ago
Like, Pig, I’ve always liked cows. They are delicious! And so is Pig… and Goat. Rat, not so much (I think).
GoodQuestion Premium Member about 12 years ago
Hmm, shouldn’t pig prefer RAZORBACKS????Hook ’em, pig! . . . . ☻

Uh, oh. Pastis is screwed now. U-T is pit bull aggressive about commercial uses of their logo and even that particular shade of orange. They sue even tiny businesses, just for using a similar longhorn shape in another color. When we start seeing jokes about the crocs being Texas A&M graduates, we’ll know who owns the strip then.
Happy Cat Premium Member about 12 years ago
Yes, where they earn a sheepskin.
