Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for December 27, 2012

No surprise….

Don’t forget the musical numbers:·Oompa, loompa, doopity dig,Here is a painful lesson for Pig;Oompa, loompa, doopity dat,Cover your “pearls” when talking to Rat.·Any other song ideas?

He’ll rehearse another 50 times at least.

Let’s add the page that says “pig sits on rat”.

Wait, how can you boot somebody without a boot?

And pig eats rat . A sequel.

Oh, we get into some very involved discussions around here. Sometimes too involved. Just see Doonesbury or Non Sequitur.

You have failed to grasp Tae Kwon Leap. Approach the master. Pay attention, class.

BOOT TO THE HEAD!

Rehearsal is essential for a good finished product. Quiet on the set!Pig? Where’s Pig’s stunt double?!Okay, Rat: ACTION!

Rat is the reason we have the idiom …I don’t give a Rats A$$.

Bippity boppity boomthe rat kicks pig to his doom…any ideas for the last 2 lines?

I’ll bet “Rat kicks Guard Duck” isn’t in his script.

Um, how about a ‘Spoiler Alert’?

It will be a short list for the Propmaster:

“Pearls Before Swine—The Movie” is a bland title. How about calling it “Pig Nine From Outer Space”, or “Pig or Pigita?”…Wood-n’t one of those be better?!?

masterskrain ,Thats Firesign Theatre Tae Kwan Leap.

Guard Duck could be a great action movie.

Steven got over the cross word panel :(

Rat’s in his usual bad mood today, even over at Sherpa’s “Dumb Question/Bad Answer”.

“Four on the Floor” with ‘the Frantics’

“Boot to the Head” was their record title

For those of you suggesting pig retaliate…. LMAO!!! Is this your first day reading this strip? That will NEVER happen! Which is why it’s so appropriate that Pig gets booted to the head! He’s the worthless slob here. He’s so stupid it hurts! He’ll actually think Rat is doing him a favor, after Rat explains it! While I don’t like Rat, I hate Pig. Maybe he’ll get a spine or his brains will be jarred after a few boots to the head.

And you’re also a BIG head, Rat.

LOL xxx

At least Rat is barefoot.

This plot for a movie may be okay…after all, it’s working as a plot for a comic strip.

Considering momentum and impulse, this scenario is highly suspect.

CUT! do it once more and put some ummph into it.

sometimes i wonder about what idiot green lighted some movies.

That’s a riot!

@ masterskrain: It’s from a Frantics sketch, called “Tae Kwon Leap”. BTTH also shows up in “Last Will and Temperament”.

Sorry, didn’t read all of the comments.

(Will anyone read THIS?)
