Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 22, 2016
Transcript:
Rat: I can't believe that one day I just die -poof- and am gone forever. Goat: Why is that hard to believe? Rat: Because greatness like this should be harder to eliminate. Goat: And your humility will be missed. Rat: My death should be more like killing the terminator.

Sorry to tell you this, Rat, but you have ten quintillion miles to go before you reach the outer edge of mediocrity. And three times as far before you reach the outer edge of greatness.

How easy – or hard – you are to eliminate is at least partially up to you.

Hold on now. I thought Rat was a mutant survivor of the Pre-Pearls Nuclear Holocaust.

I’ll tell you how important I am. When I die, the universe will cease to exist, in fact will not have ever existed. It’s true, and you cannot prove otherwise. The fact that other people die and I and the universe continue merely shows how less important they are. If you think you’re just as important as I, you just go a head and die, and we’ll just see.
