Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 01, 2015
Transcript:
Rat: I've determined that everyone is much too sensitive these days. No one can take a joke. Goat: So? Rat: So I've developed 'Rhinomatic,' a thick skin made from rhino hide, complete with horn. Pig: Makes me feel ray. Censored by thin-skinned editor. Rat: Whoa whoa whoa. Only your skin is thick.

Alexander the Good Enough over 9 years ago
No, no, no. Concupiscent! Itâs a very nice word, and Iâll bet that neither Stephanâs editor nor the comment moderators have the slightest clue what it means.

Is it me or the âonly your skin is thickâ is also a double entendre?

The following is a parodic letter: .Dear Mr. Pastis: We strongly recommend that your characters not use that suit. We do have a character called âThe Rhino.â On second consideration, we must ask if your character would be interested in serving as a stunt double in our next movie.Signed, Joe Lawyer, Marvel Comics Group..Hey, you never know. The Rhino character is kind of stupidâŠ

In pigâs case, his skin is definitely NOT the only part of him thatâs thick. Soâs his skull.

Is that a pig in a poker?
SusanSunshine Premium Member over 9 years ago
Yeah, I didnât know, either, which way âonly your skin is thickâ is supposed to go.
âonly YOUR skin is thickâ⊠or the other wayâŠâOnly your SKIN is thickâ ⊠which doesnât really make sense, in context, but sure sounds .. um⊠racier.

Pig said âhornyâ! Pig said âhornyâ! No Thin-Skinned Editor can fool me. Pigâs new exoderm suit is thick-skinned; he would be a much better Editor!But I hope Rat uses only faux-rhino for his âRhinomatic.â Otherwise, I will have to condemn him to participate in the most dangerous gameâŠ.

Charlie Fogwhistle over 9 years ago
I donât know about this. Kill just one lion, and youâre all over the news. But develop a product made with products from an endangered species? Good thing itâs just a cartoon. âNo actual Rhinoceroses were harmed in the making of this cartoon.â

Since when does the word âcornyâ need to be censored?

Rhino poaching is at an all time high, thanks in no small part to a doctor in Viet Nam stating that it helps cure cancer. The Chinese have used it in their ancient medicines for years, but not the Vietnamese use it in theirs as well as having it on their wall as a status symbol. It has to stop.

Does any one else think of a certain candidate with an upswept hairdo, few brains, thick skin, and might be considered a Republican In Name Only (RINO)? Nah, Pig is too sweet natured.
And yes, I too oppose hunting Rhinoceros. And Elephants.

Iâve developed a thick skin over the years. Especially on GoComics when all the trolls are roaming about.
They can call me any name under the sun and I honestly couldnât care less.

Andrew Bosch Premium Member over 9 years ago
It is good that you wish to make a statement against hunting certain animals to extinction because of othersâ stupid beliefs, but could you at least remove the graphics references from the website you plagiarized?

When I served in Southeast Asia, we found a much simpler answer: rhino horn was used for the same purpose as Viagra. Inquiring foreigners were given any number of fairy tale answers â sort of like those youâve mentioned.
