Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for February 22, 2017

Biologist Bob, pigs also make good guinea pigs.

Why would he want to get into a chimp’s pants? Even biologists aren’t that desperate.

The big drawback to being smart, knowing how stupid others are.

Actually, it’s nowhere near 99%, just to nit-pick. But Pig’s in fine form today.

Pig you do not wear any clothing so what do you know…………So that is how they came up with Pig in a Poke !

Why isn’t Rat here today to bean Pig with a baseball bat?

I suppose one could argue that evidence suggests Pig has been repeatedly severely concussed already….

Anyone who thinks scientists are “antisocial” doesn’t know many scientists.

Where do the cells in your body keep their reproductive organs? In their genes!

made me laugh out loud, and I’m still chuckling. thanks, Stephan!

“Pinky, are you pondering what I’m pondering?”“I think so Brain, but this time you put the trousers on the chimp.”

Groan, But I loved it.

Pig swims in the Shallow End of the Gene Pool!

I wonder if it’s ever occurred to Pastis that, for a pig, Pig is uncharacteristically stupid.

Silly pig.

This should be Rat, not Pig. Pig is nice!

Chimps are NOT monkeys! They are apes!

Pastis must be slipping, that gag is almost as old as my jeans.

Interesting scientific fact: Chimpanzee apes are more closely related to human apes than they are to gorilla and orangutan apes.

Chimps are NOT monkeys!!!! Sorry, I was angier about that than I thought. But seriously, who doesn’t know that?!?
