Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for August 25, 2013
Transcript:
Pig: Hey, Goat. This is my friend, Patty...she doesn't like to communicate very much. Goat: Why is that/ Pig: I don't know, but she likes 'Silly Putty.' So I told her to form it into words if she'd lie. Goat: Oh, good idea. Pig: Yeah, but then she wanted privacy, so she took it into the bathroom and then came back with very few words. Goat: That's too bad. Pig: I know. Would you mind trying to talk to her? Goat: Sure. Pity you're so pithy with the putty in the potty, Patty. Pig: Did I mention she likes putt-putt golf? Rat: STOP! Goat: Please, Rat. Don't be petty to pithy Patty.

Wow⊠Just wow
Sherlock Watson over 11 years ago
And her boyfriendâs name is Peter Piper.
Inkwell Files over 11 years ago
Dialogue like that is probably why she stopped communicating.
punmeister over 11 years ago
Sheâs probably the prior Peppermint Patty of Peanuts.

Perhaps Patty was having a pity party in the potty⊠and had no time for petty parlance with a pigâŠ.even a pretty patient pig like Pig.
Or perhaps she dropped some putty into the potty, and had only enough left for a pithy point. (You wouldnât want Patty to play with peed-on putty!)..Please, people! Donât pick on MEâŠ.Pastis put the picture of Patty and Pigâs putty into the panel. Poor me, I just picked it up, like a pathetic pox.

Another pun strip where no one threatens Pastis at the end.
SusanSunshine Premium Member over 11 years ago
HarisâŠ. there is no pun in this stripâŠ. though there IS a pile of punishing word playâŠ. itâs all alliterationâŠno pun for which to pound Pastis.

Pastis periodically provides punless Pearls.
orinoco womble over 11 years ago
Sounds like sheâs having a pithy Patty pity party, and Ratâs a party pooper.
orinoco womble over 11 years ago

PoopâŠ.
gmu328 over 11 years ago
Patsis sometimes broadcast his potential a mile away when you see such a setup with all the verbiage in the squares leading up to the end. In this case, no puns intended, but literally some nice alliteration having lit up our lives
finale over 11 years ago
Why punish the public that peers into Pastisâ panel perimeter?.Pure psychological punishment?
finale over 11 years ago
P-hooey!.

Rat is a Pest.
pnmiq over 11 years ago
A few weeks my local paper dropped this comic strip. So, I dropped them. Who wouldnât find this strip to be worthy of inclusion? Now I have to get online and also get to read all the comments. Pastis and Peanuts have always been my favorites, along with C&H, of course.
ame_baby over 11 years ago
This made my brain hurt. Itâs Sunday, Pastis. :p
cilantro55 over 11 years ago
Pearls NOT pretty,What a pity!Strips like thisAre rather Sh@#$%
pnmiq over 11 years ago
This is my first time in here, so let me see if I have this right. This is a plethora of playful posters pontificating Pastis, puckishly.
pekenpug over 11 years ago
Iâm with Rat.
ChessPirate over 11 years ago
Really rabid Rat, preferring painful puns, pounds Pastisâ proboscis, Police perplexed.
GoodQuestion Premium Member over 11 years ago
Itâs obvious, Stephan has an awake disorder . . . â»
Incredulous over 11 years ago
Perhaps sheâs pithy Patty because she is full of pith and vinegar.

Pathetic
Lamberger over 11 years ago
This countryâs alliteracy rate is climbing. But, as the poet would have said, where he but given the opportunity, âThe percipitation in Portugal pelts primarily on the plateauâ.
Hillbillyman over 11 years ago
My wifeâs name is Patty.
bmonk over 11 years ago
Here we were all patsies for Pastisâ pithy puns, perhaps because he has perpetrated the so profoundly in the past. I perceive proudly that he has passed to alliteration.
byamrcn over 11 years ago
Not exactly pretty poetry, is it.
Sherlock Watson over 11 years ago
And the reciter of that tongue twister was (or is, depending on your POV) Micky Dolenz.
Actually, it was/is Peter Tork.
