Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 01, 2012

Oh, the cruelty of Zeeba…. I am calling for a UN investigation of unreasonable force used against Crocs by Zeeba! Look at them!These poor, hurting, helpless Crocs!When will this horror perpetrated by Zeeba end?When will the hatred ever enc?If only Zeeba would simply negotiate with the Crocs. If only Zeeba was willing to give up his tasty body in good faith to the Crocs. All of this senseless violence would be over.Condemn Zeeba NOW!

Foiled by technology yet again…

Fits in with the “bird-brained” crocs, except I don’t think they could find their way home if they migrated more than 5 blocks away.

Reminds me of a “Garfield” strip where Garfield sees two birds and bumps his face in the window. The birds laugh at the misfortune, leave and Garfield leaves. Then Garfield holds up a worm whereupon the previous birds bump into the window. (25 Feb. ’96)

it funny because it true

OK, this makes me hungry!!! Follow me here…it was a slider door that did the crocs in. Slider is another name for White Caste….I’m hungry! Nuff’ said…(with all due respect to Stan Lee and Jack Kirby…)

THIS JUST IN… The newest technological breakthrough has just been officially named GLASS. All retarded crocs with speech incapabilities BEWARE!!!

Board up the windows!

Bar the doors!

All female and children crocs are to hide in the cellar with AK-47 assault rifles UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!

ALL male adult crocs are officially DRAFTED into the WAR on GLASS!!!

« This calming news broadcast is now over. This has been 105.6 The Calm. »

double pane (double pain?) glass in the door…

That was a very touching and heart-felt speech by Bob.sniff Beautiful . . .

Zeeba Neighba played the crocs for pigeons, it seems. Maybe they weren’t aware that he had had these new full wall-height windows installed replacing the old-fashioned windows with sill that he used to have. Hey, Larry and Bob! Don’t get your noses all bent out of shape!

I love that Zebra just doesn’t react through any of this.

Probably the same cleaning service that Apple Uses on their glass doors.

I see that Stephan resisted the urge to do an April Fool’s strip. Of course the crocs are fools in any month.

Crocs need to take up that force field with the neighborhood association’s architectural committee.

The comparison to certain humans is overwhelming.

The glass is full but the crocs’ heads are half empty.

Yeah, what is it with that “technology” – screws everyone up.

The “Pennys” of the reptile world.

I’m still deeply moved by Bob’s “speech”. It’s sublime . . . almost haiku.

Double dose at Cul De Sac.

I LOVE the sixth panel.

LOL LOL xxx

You must wash your pants in window cleaner, because I can see myself in them.

Drain the swamp…urgent. Repeat: drain the swamp…

Get ahead of the crocs in life…defense NEVER wins, ultimately…so…drain the ‘swamp’…

No one has mentioned Pastis’s contribution to Cul de Sac this week? That’s in the April Fool’s tradition of cartoonists doing each other’s work that happened once a few years ago.

Adding insult to injury, Patty later tells Larry to wash their force fields.

It is nice to see Pastis has added a touch of glass to his strip today. One can really appreciate his artistic ability – it shines in Cul De Sac today. . . . . . . .☻

Nice job at Cul de Sac, Stephan!

One word: Windex.

Pearls on Cul de Sac strip today too. Double bonus!

Gardol!

Lol, you guys all seem to think the fourth wall is made out of glass.

mission : FAILED…again

Josh, be careful what you wish for…I keep my slider crystal clear. And I’ve planted my face on it several times thinking it was open..

Stephan, This is starting to feel like a roadrunner vs coyote scenario…I may have to start rooting for the Crocs !!

The crocs tried to force their way to Zeeba, and were left out in the field. Foiled by techmology.

.

“Any sufficiently advanced techmology is indistingushamble from magic.”

I encourage everyone to go look at Stephan’s Cul de Sac contribution today! :-D

Hee Hee, same cleaning service Apple uses, that’s funny.

why ?????

and 1 strip isnt an arc

I LOVE the croc/zebra strips, and arcs.

For when your neighbors are highly moronic Crocs Windex ensures a streak free shine to all yes glass surface. Yes windex will get your glass so clean they’ll never know it’s there.

I guess Windex really does give windows that streak free shine.

Wow that’s clean glass

will they learn that it is a glass door and not a force field?

Every time, the crocs fail and after hearing that speech the crocs should have killed that Zebra.

Did you see the future croc strip with the croc with the bent snout?

so close… yet so far

You know what’s funny is that they almost had him this year… haha COVID….

Thank god he bought crocodile-proof glass.

Me good at speech huh?
