Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for February 12, 2025

Dude looks great for 100!

I don’t go to coffee shops and I’ve never been drafted, so I can’t identify with either of them.

“Huh. How’s it feel to know they’re running the government that drafted you now?”

Got them, first world problem blues.

The world owes me a living! I’m entitled!

I don’t like expensive or coffee. They tried to draft me, but I got out of it on a typographical error, I was 8 not 18.

Is this character maybe based on Stephan’s relative?

Who needs an Army when we have the well regulated MAGA self trained militia?

Love it!

Rat’s life story pales in comparison with the old guys!

Guess what. While most people were distracted by their social media, those Nazis came back.

I understand; we’re going through conditions that will not only rival that, but also be worse. Caused by our own President, against his own “people”

I may be a bad person but I lost all sympathy for Rat when he went to Starbucks (sorry, Starbicks). Don’t you guys have actual proper coffee shops?

Hmm. Exactly what your generation deserved based on who your generation’s parents voted for. And yes, the generational idiots are back (they never left).

There’s a good Angelina Jolie movie, “Those Who Wish Me Dead.”

Jolie is a firefighter who lost her crew when she made a bad decision during a wildfire. She’s helping a young boy whose father was just killed by the Mafia.

They are sitting and the kid asks her why she lives alone in the woods. She tells him the story of her freinds dying.

The kid says that’s really sad, and it reminds him of how bad he felt when his mother died of cancer.

Jolie says “Kid, you’re making it tough for me to feel sorry for myself.”

man these 100 year old veterans are getting sassy.

If he was born in 1925 he’d probably be dead.

Not only that Rat, Pumpkin Spice Latte is out of season and not due back until next October and they don’t have Creme Brûlée latte this year! Talk about having to improve to suck…

My grandfather couldn’t get a job as a young man because his draft card said 1A, and they knew he was going to war. He survived on wits and luck <3

We’re doomed…

he doesn’t look 100 years old.
