Transcript:
Pig: I am going to be focused this morning. I am going to get my work done. I will just quickly check my facebook news feed. Haha...look at that l'il baby singing...is that real? Haha...a monkey playing with a kitten...now that's funny. Is that kid really gonna jump off his roof? Whoa. Aww...a returning soldier surprising his daughter...I love these. I figured out how to increase my productivity.

Maybe I will check out today’s GoComics before I have breakfast. Agh, it is lunchtime now!

That is what FB wants you to do to drive up the ad revenue :-)

Who needs productivity when you have 215 comics on GoComics?

I don’t do Facebook. If I have that much time to kill, I’d rather stick my face in a book.

This strip looks kind of weird today. The panels need to be brought together to where it’s two horizontal rows.

Interesting, a double format in the comments section.
However, I would consider facebook and news an oxymoron.

The comic layout looks like the old hopscotch game….am I right?

That’s why I’ve made McDonald’s my new “home” office for early morning work.

Heh, I’m procrastinating and getting distracted as I read this.

Better way, dump Facebook.
jmarkoff2 over 7 years ago
This fairly one sided message from Stephan ignores all the good that Internet forums can accomplish. And trashing the viewing machine itself is an illogical move like shooting the messenger.

I remember Rat doing the same thing Pig was doing a couple years ago
JPuzzleWhiz over 7 years ago
I see GoComics has adjusted the format of today’s strip so that we now see it in its regular setup.
Sisyphos over 7 years ago
The biggest difference between me and Pig today is that Pig has interesting varied facial expressions….
I need to get a life.
Loopy Frogger Premium Member over 7 years ago
So tre Pig so True. I guess we will have something to do when there are no more jobs.
