Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 21, 2011

Transcript:
Pig: What's going on with that little girl who's always criticizing Stephan's strip on the Internet? Goat: Carton Critic 2544? She started her own blog. Pig: Well that's nice. Maybe having her own creative work subject to criticism will make her more sensitive to how she criticizes others. Goat: I doubt it. I mean, who's gonna rip on the blog of a nine-year-old girl? Pasits: Worst. Blog. Ever.

All 9 year old girls are snots.

Rat would probably be more creative in his wording
Sisyphos about 13 years ago
I wonder what moniker cartoon-Pastis is using as he flames the CartoonCritic2544 blog board? Will she see through it?

If I were him, my handle would be ManRatPig.

Had an insight last night. Or at least what I regard as one. Is Stephan blasting his real-life cybercritics who deal out the nasty stuff (there is constructive criticism), by comparing them to a dead-eyed little girl who plays with dolls (picks at his pearls of wisdom)?

Touche’, Stephen.
cartooncritic2544 about 13 years ago
I see how it is. you may have won the battle, stephan, but the war rages on.

Very good.
rgcviper about 13 years ago
In the last panel, Stephan sounds JUST like Comic Book Guy from “The Simpsons”.

First it’s the pig. Now a 9 year old girl. Doesn’t anyone show you the least bit of suspect, Stephan. (sorry I meant respect)aldee81

@rgcviper
That’s exactly what I thought, and I’m certain that’s part of what made this one of the funniest in the strip for a while (for me anyway).

You’ve all seen today’s Pluggers, right?
ReaderLady about 13 years ago
You, you, you mean man, you! Picking on a cut little girl! How dare you!
At least that’s what I expect to see tomorrow. He’s in deep doo-doo for sure.
Sherlock Watson about 13 years ago
Stephan, what are you doing? You’re letting the fight drag on indefinitely. You should have just punched her the other day and been done with it.
brlr100 about 13 years ago
9 year old anything is annoying, except maybe wine.
chabias about 13 years ago
Yes! Make her cry, Stephan!
bmonk about 13 years ago
I wonder if she’s related to Car Talk’s Melissa Peterson?
(cartoon critic 2544 can’t be her because she was 11 in the ’90s. Maybe her snotty, bratty daughter?)
MelvinLott about 13 years ago
Give it back, gift wrapped, Stephan!

Pastis is the best. Hope his stuff comes to Atlanta soon.
Blossoming about 13 years ago
I love how he uses childish language back at her… Like “Worst. Blog. Ever.”… Loving it, he always holds true to his running theme… (Also, if you think about it, it DOES sound a little “valley girl” like…). :)
Michelle Morris about 13 years ago
I think she’s the daughter of AngryFan1138 from this week’s Cow and Boy. The tree don’t fall far from the apple! :D
