Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 16, 2016

I guess Neighbor Bob gave up on his triathlete training.

Yeah Neighbor Bob, you’ve been hanging out with Pig way too much.

Methinks you did ruin the moment, Bob.

Bob, you will soon hear the pitter-patter of little feet. Your wife is fooling around with a midget.

@ Gweedo:Good stiff drink reserved for Bob, not his wife, under the circumstances…..

Sorry, Bob. Denial won’t help.

Why are all the dorks in comic strips named Bob?

@Bob All if the names in the strip are taken from names of family and friends of Stephan. I would expect that he has a friend named Bob that he likes to poke fun at.

Either that or every names Bob is a dork. Case in point: the movie What About Bob?

Bob perhaps one of the Crocs can help you out with this one :-)

I don’t think that dumb Pig has any clue.

How did neighbor bob get so much fatter in a few short days?

Didn’t Microsoft have something named Bob a few years back?

My middle name is Bob. Some Bobs are not dorks. Bob Newhart, Billy Bob Thornton, Bob the Builder, Bob Hope.

I was going to be named Bob, but an aunt & uncle gave their boy that name, so my mother had to find a new name. I am thankful she gave me a less common name.

If Bobette is anything like Bob, it gives new meaning to the “bumping ugly” cliché.

Obviously more than one Bob in the neighborhood. If you’re talking to both of them at the same time, maybe you add the house number to the name, Neighbor Bob722, neighbor Bob719.

My wife once complained she “works her ass off” around here, and no one else helps. That night I had a dream I was spinning my wedding ring like you do with a coin, it went off the table edge, and was lost forever. I told my wife about it, and that since my ring represents our marriage, I was going to start taking her more seriously so I don’t lose her. I should have stopped there.

I did have one question for her though. I asked her, “If you worked your ass off, why is it still there?”

When I was in college there was this fat kid named Bob. Everyone called him Blob. Strangely enough, he didn’t mind.

When I was young I spoiled plenty of moments with girlfriends/potential girlfriends because I couldn’t resist making a wisecrack. Luckily I outgrew it or I’d probably still be single.

So… Congratulations then?

This Neighbor Bob is Bob the Fat Clueless Dork. Maybe his wife will wise him up a bit (as in, tune him up). Though, since she is in a “delicate condition,” maybe she can just hire out the job….

A sharp one, that Neighbor Bob.

There’s a great a cappella group called, of course, The Bobs. See bobs.com naturally!
