Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 30, 2015

Just give him some aspirin.

The rule is, “If you’re hungry, eat.”

Steph getting a bit of his own medicine.

They’re all wrong. It’s feed a cleaver, starve a bowl.

Why not just draw a genius doctor with a miracle cure, Stephan? What am I thinking? That’s not funny!!!

I thought it was “if it’s red, raise the head; if it’s pale, raise the tail”. Or is that for something else?

I find a nice alternative is curl up in a corner and gently weep until I feel improved…

in general, starve Stephan…..

At my favorite restaurant/bar they serve a ‘hot toddy’ that consists of a shot of “Bärenjäger” (honey liqueur), a shot of “Armagnac” (brandy), and a dash of lemon juice. It is warmed and then drunk when it’s still hot. It’s pretty tasty and makes me sleep like a baby.

Rat’s right. Cartoon Boy could stand (or remain lying down) to lose some of that belly he sports.(But I think Goat is correct about the aphorism.)

Rat is correct. It’s feed a cold, starve a fever, but what if you don’t have either?

Actually latest studies prove both wrong. You should feed both cold and fever, preferably with high nutrient foods with emphasis on veggies & fruits.

…. and the kitty asked, DO penguins have knees? (p.s. swipe right) ;)

I like chicken noodle soup when I’m under the weather.

It’s “Feed a Vole, Starve a Weaver”.

Acetaminophen is only poisonous in large amounts. Like Evan Walker honey bourbon. Or virtually anything else you can name. If you don’t like acetaminophen, fine, but let’s tone down the scare-mongering.

Stephan wears his cap in bed?

To add insult to injury, DST ends this weekend. Fall forward, spring back.

Steph would do a lot better if he Banned all Visitors!

well, it would make sense that Stephan dies (or gets more sick) because of stupid puns. Irony, karma, divine justice ….
