Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 03, 2015

Have a great time on Mission Street, Stephan.

Considering who wrote that, it’s a very true statement.

Yes, Rat, we know you suck. That’s why no one ever buys your comics. Your the worst cartoonist there is. Stop being jealous of Stephan since he’s a hundred times better than you.

“I suck” is a very brief, and possibly honest, Artist’s Statement, but I don’t think Rat is qualified to speak for Cartoon-Boy, who is after all his creator!

Brevity, it is said, is the soul of wit. In this case, it’s the soul of twit.

The exclamation points must be intended as his “artistic vision.”

!!!!!!

Once again Rat-A-Tude !

Oh Rat. Must you always be so nasty? But then, after all you ARE a Rat!!!

I want to shove some exclamation points up Rat’s…nostrils!

oh, Rat, Rat, Rat. if it wasn’t for Stephen, and his creative mind, you wouldn’t even exist

Beginning to question the sanity of folks who respond to the words of a drawn character???!!!!

Better yet, pass it on to Tony. LOL

“I’m just trying to be punny…”

‘Multiple exclamation marks,’ he went on, shaking his head, ‘are a sure sign of a diseased mind.’ .T. Pratchett Eric

What he really means is, “When I smoke my cigarettes, I suck.”
