Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 19, 2018

Abbott & Costello were the best at “left-right” bit when driving.

Pig doesn’t know his left from his right. Right!

“CORRECT!”

John Cleese movie “Clockwise”

I thought you were going for a cinnamon roll?

They need a marine marching by.

As my grandfather used to tell me when I was trying to keep up with a procession that was making a lot of unannounced turns, “if you go left, you’ll be right; if you go right, you’ll be left”.

Right. I am left speechless.

Now Pig’s eyes are left glazed. That includes the right.

Well, there used to be only One Direction.

If left is not right, then right must be right because right is all that’s left, right?

But who’s on first?

Give Pig his marching orders: Left, Right, Left…

Airplane….Over..Under

Bob seems to be pointing at a MUFFIN. Is that a glazed muffin?

Bob went to the Dirty Harry school of eloquence.

I won’t be Bobbing for Donuts anytime soon.

Pig, Baker Bob is telling you the donut left.

On top of a donut, all covered in glaze, I saw a small fly stuck in sugary haze…..

Pig, Elvis took the last glaze donut.

You need to be sinister to get a donut, Pig.

Can we back up this comic?

Go ahead.

I preferred the 3 Stooges, left, right routine. The three of them facing inward and Moe saying left and everyone pointing in a different direction. Most of the time I preferred the 3 Stooges over Abbot and Costello, except for the baseball routine.

Okay…I’m confused…why would Baker Bob even reply ‘Left’ to Pig’s question? It makes no sense to me. I get what SP is going for, but it doesn’t seem to work.

Now, if I ask someone if I should turn ‘Left’ at the stop sign, and they answer ‘Right’, then we have a joke setup, correct?

So what am I missing here?

… and “go ahead, back up”

Sheesh, how many Bob’s are in this strip

To the REAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRR, HARCH.

How gauche…

Bear left!Right, Frog!

“Hey Abbott”

Baker — “You know something?”

Pig — “Hmmm?”

Baker — “No donut for you!”

Pig — “What?”

Baker — “Come back one year. Next!”

Can’t beat “Who’s on First”

No, Pig, it is not that Baker Bob is bad at Customer Service. Now, who’s left in this strip?

Who’s donut? Yes.

Who’s? Thats right.

This donut belongs to who? Correct.

What happened to the Crocs???

Third base! And I’ll jist have a jelly donut.

Pig is short

Heh
