Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 14, 2014

That only happens when you’re texting while driving.

I too find that not funny, Goat.

Sometimes the puns all swirl together and become completely garbled.:Would that be garbled funnel syndrome?

Please: don’t stop!

I am scared of going to the carpool Tuesdays and Fridays, when it is Mrs Turner turn to drive……… it is carpool Turner syndrome

It’s what killed Princess Diana

I am afraid of getting my car stuck on the tunnel………… why?…………… because by law I can’t push the cars inside a tunnel, the doctors call my situation Car Pull tunnel syndrome

Why stop? “Carpool Tunnel Syndrome” is funny. Give us another one!

he deserves a slap on that wrist

Oh! the humanity of it all!!!!!!

It WAS funny!!!

Stephan what is your trigger of thought : Wine,Whiskey or BEER !

LOL !!!! I just love these puns. Keep them coming.

LOL

Not kidding: Universal Studios (Orlando, FL) Halloween Horror Nights (12 or 13-ish) had, in one of their personal fears scare houses, a long but silent hallway between rooms of nothing but stuffed large toy goldfish, slimy and nasty to the touch, hanging from the ceiling. No way of getting around them at all without touching them. Ick. I asked one of the escorts (people who would help anyone totally freaked out – standard among all of the houses) if this was representing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. He said, “Yes. Very few people got the joke.” I have not seen that idea back yet and they are up to HHN24 this year. Hey, I thought it was humorous.

BOOOO

Goat represents the Voice of Reason, challenging Cartoon-Boy.Ha ha ha hah, he he he heh!Keep it up, witty, unshaven, punny punk!

If you need to have it, how about farbled gunnel syndrome ?

One of the better ones.

love the puns !

Yes, Goat. This ritual pretense that people don’t like puns has to stop.

A+!

“The only thing we have to fear is Pearls Before Swine itself…”—from FDR’s first inaugural speech (before Eleanor edited it!).

and I thought it was a car wash, silly of me.

10.5/10

LOL! Loved it! I worked in Physical Therapy for almost 30 years and saw a lot of it!

Carpool? I didn’t know cars could swim.

sorry. made me laugh :)

Cunnel Fake ? There is a lot of them out there. They lie about their age too. And crap full syndrome.

Stephan…Stephan…Stephan…

Oh my lord, you DO know how to make me laugh, boss… You have way too much time on your hands to keep coming up with these puns. But don’t ever stop!

Don’t stop! I love it!

Yes! STOP, it hurts when I laugh!

I made that joke back in the 1990s, and it was published in Herb Caen’s column in the San Francisco Chronicle.

@ STEPHEN PASTIS

Your BEST pun ever!!

no, no it doesn’t have to stop!

Why are the characters always standing behind some kind of wall? Sometimes they’re behind a bar. It’s as if Steph doesn’t know how to draw the bottom half of bodies; but he does know, as witness the fourth panel. Is it laziness? Seems like carefully drawing all the bricks, or stones, would take longer than just drawing the whole characters. So sloth isn’t the culprit here. What’s the deal? Anyone?

And the groaning grows every day. Can’t you hear it? Please make it stop.

Hey PIg; carpool diem!

Meh… only a two-groaner pun, not down to Pastis’ usual standards.

This is why I stopped reading the strip — nothing but stupid puns.

Believe it or not, I didn’t see the pun coming!

At 56 comments and counting why stop, do more until you suffer from Carpe Diem syndrome.

Goat and Rat agree on something!Love these.

One of your best puns, Mr. Pastis!

Classic Pastis (kind of rhymes)

I liked it too. Keep ’em coming Stephan!

How very realistic.

xxx

Don’t!Stop!Don’t!Stop!Don’t! Stop!Don’t! Stop!Don’t Stop!Don’t Stop!Don’t Stop!

HILARIOUS !!!!!!

We’ll have to administer little beatings to Stephan, but only if he STOPS!

Congrats Pastis…you made a dumb joke that was almost kind of sort of funny

Many years ago my father in law was supervisor of the HOV section of the Mt. Baker tunnel here in Seattle. A lot of workers got sick from toxic material in the soil. And yes, they did call it CarPool Tunnel Syndrome. Nobody died, but it did delay the project by almost a year.

I love the puns! Please, keep them coming!

Nooo! Thief! I’ve been using that one for years. I think Stephan’s been following me around to pick up my lamest jokes.

A friend of mine try to out do each other with pathetic, innane, and worthless puns imaginable. Just sent him this one. Me win !!

I LIKE this one.

Didn’t get it.

Carpal tunnel syndrome! Y’know? Focus!
