Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for November 22, 2016

Croc is also a fellow at the Hoover Institute.

Is true Crock, you’re a bloomin’ idiot.

“Curses! Foiled again!”

“Stanfurd Uneeversity” !?

heey, stephan, you mispelled Uneeversity.

Really, Stephan? I have a strange feeling that this strip may be politically motivated, considering how you went to California at Berkeley and Stanford is conservative-leaning.

Another qualified presidential candidate appears.

I think Zebra needs to learn the word “alumnus”. “Alumni” is plural.

@ rumball. No; he says that he got a degree. He’s too intellectual for the “Alt-Right”.

If he was an English major, he would have said “Me an aluminium”.

Gotcha there, Zeeba!

Also, if he were an English major, he would likely know ‘alumnus’ is Latin.

Croc Power ! Thought he went to “What’s A Matter U”……..Zebra neighbor must remember Crocs speak Croc not English :-)

Stanfurd? I would have guessed Larry was a fellow graduate of an SEC school. :-)

Like I’ve always said, just because you went to college doesn’t mean you’re smart.

Actually, maybe “Stanfurd” graduates are aluminums. Aluminumi? Illuminati? It’s a giant croc conspiracy.

Anyway, if he’s an aluminum, does that mean his favorite music is light metal?

But Larry ate the sheepskin.

He was studying math, but he ate π.

If that’s Larry, then he’s definitely lying. We know that he took all the money his dad gave him for tuition at Stanford and used it to buy beer.http://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbeforeswine/2012/09/07

I are a graduate; to (not in English).

Ask Larry what two plus two equals.

LOL

Whenever I see a bumper sticker saying X-University Alumni, I laugh a bit. Maybe there are alumni of that college in the car, but more likely it meant “alumnus” or “alumna”. When advertising one’s education, one wants to be smarter than the zebra here.

thank you

Alumnum is a neutered alumnus.

Maybe that’s where Clinton learned to lie so well…….

If it would be more convincing if he knew the word “alumnus.”

CROCS!!!!

That last bit is the mantra of all us math majors.

So the to are just talking like nothing. No attacks or threats…

Croc is really showing his mettle here. When another croc dies from some idiotic scheme, does he barium?C’mon, 38 of you and nobody thought of that?

Go Bears! (see, someone gets the message)

always good to see the crocs are still around

Pastis is a Cal-Berkeley grad, so naturally he would make the dumbest character in the strip a Stanford aluminum.

He’s telling you lies, Zebra. He actually graduated from the University of Duh.

xxx

Went to Wharton for bizness schul afterward.

@DaDoctah: you mean “if he were an English major,” or, “if he had been an English major.” You would only say “if I/he/she was” when referring to a specific moment in time. Otherwise, you use the subjunctive. (Guess what my major was?)

Even more convincing if he knew the word “alumnus”.

As I always say, all I know about math is that 2 + 2 = 22. What more do you need in life?
