Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for July 04, 2012

Rat’s definition makes a lot of sense, I’d roll with it.

Rat can be such a boob sometimes.

Not a tough choice at all.

What makes you think she didn’t understand?

That’s right, Goat. Stop. Stop reading that book. Science has moved past the falsity of evolutionary theory. It’s called the fossil record.

Grainbelt, she understood perfectly. I married her and she told me.

“Ta-Tas”. Is that what you kids call them these days?

Why is Goat shouting while Rat and Pig try to have a serious conversation? Is Goat some kind of trouble-maker?

Whole new meaning for tit for tat . . . ☻

happy 4th

Often – but not always – human consciousness overrides natural selection.Perhaps the same would apply to conscious pigs, rats and goats . . . ?

Tata, boobs, girls, knockers, tities, hooters, bazonga, jugs, handles, breasts, mammaries is there any part of the human anatomy with so many names or so much focus of attention?

Happy Fourth of July everyone! I’m off to the cook out, “ta ta”!(Say, does England have a Fourth of July?)

Hence another reason why Rat has no girlfriend anymore. Even Pig’s sister sees him as an idiot.

Natural selection makes sense. It’s Evolution that doesn’t.

Bodacious!!!!

OMG, this just tainted any future conversation of evolution.

Eskimos have hundreds of words for snow. Men have hundreds of words for breasts.

Irked too many NPR fans?

Reminded of a 70’s era Steve Martin routine in which he recited a long list (including “snack trays”) of euphemisms which should never be used for human breasts – suggesting that “Hooters” was the only acceptable label. First time I had ever encountered that nickname, predating the eponymous restaurant chain.

So, explain Katy Perry syndrome to the rest of us. Or Pamela Sue Anderson for that matter.

Wonderful!

Thanks joshknape! TIL that the reverse of “if you have to explain why a joke is funny, it’s not” applies. Excellent!

Perhaps Goat feels that their favorite diner isn’t the right place for this conversation, and that they should move it to Hooters.÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷H4J, everybody!

Rat: it depends on the surgeon. Save the Ta-Tas!

Darwin’s most unfortunate misprint: “Survival of the tittest”.

Rofl! Love this strip.

I don’t know how Goat manages to still hang around with those two!

LOL xxx

A friend’s site.

riot! i miss those shows.

Burser…nah, two’s plenty. At a time. Usually.

I had to laugh at that one. Rat might have made more sense than Darwin there.

in panel #3, Goat looks a lot like James Kochalka.

I love Rat, he has a way of explaining things. Even if he is way of the “PAGE”.

The most amusing thing about this comic is that Rat actually understands natural selection better than do the creationists, and Rat does not understand it at all!

Easy choice. Natural is always better.

Yeah I tend to prefer women with natural chests, because I think there’s a point where the size of the “Enhancements” get ridiculous and end up detracting from the woman’s appearance rather than adding to it. In other news, I am quite pleased we haven’t seen any meaningless fights over evolution.

Then why are you here? Bye now, don’t let the door hit you in the behind!

In all fairness, if you marry a woman with a naturally flat chest (with implants added afterward or not), you’re more likely to have a daughter with a flat chest… less likely for boys to be beating down your door when she’s a teen. :-s

What’s up with the color of Goat’s horns?

Did Pastis lose Goat’s horn color?

What happened to Goat’s horns?

I was thinking that, too.
