Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for July 14, 2012
Transcript:
Rat: Hey, Goat... I was reading your blog at home today, but I got distracted. Goat: Yeah, that can happen with even the most compelling writing... What distracted you? A phone call? Person at the door? TV show? Rat: A beige wall. You might want to spice up your blog.

Not all blogs are for self aborbed dimwits with low attention spans like Rat.

A beige wall? I should have thought it would take at least an institutional green wall to distract Rat from Goat’s soporific blog….

Hillbillyman… I’ve borrowed the word “soporific” so many times I finally bought my own…I assure you it wasn’t more than $1.75.
Acesover… I left you an answer about Pig and Guard Duck, probably too late yesterday, just in case you still want to see it…. Hmmmmactually I suppose I left it there even if you don’t want to see it….even if nobody ever wants to see it….it’s there.sigh..

That’s a very funny, witty, and creative comment, as good a laff as the strip itself. Nice one!

Rat starts with the attention span of a 2 year old at Disneyland and accelerates from there.

Generating original blog content is difficult. Making it interesting is even more so.Let me help you with your next post, Goat.“Five Ways Fried Rat Extends Your Lifespan.”

Rat has a point. I’ve met people who are about as interesting as a beige wall.
legaleagle48 over 12 years ago
A wall that’s been painted beige. Referring to something or someone as “beige” is an insult implying that the person or thing is boring, since beige is a dull, neutral color that doesn’t have the same emotional impact that the brighter, bolder colors do. In other words, Rat is saying that Goat’s blog is so boring that Rat would rather look at a beige-colored wall than read Goat’s blog.
