Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for June 03, 2014
Transcript:
Pastis: Listen, Libby. I'm tired of people randomly ripping my drawing. Now if you have something constructive to say, say it. Libby: It's okay, Mr. Pastis. Calm down. Let me think of a constructive way to say this. You draw like @#*#. Rat: Oh, so true. Pastis: Go away now, Libby. Libby: Oh, and you write like @#*#, too. Stephan gets owned by the second-grader across the street.

Guess what, Libby — he drew your face, and wrote your words. What does that say about you?

Libby: “And that’s why you’ll never win awards. Can I have a Reuben sandwich now?”

Sorry, but Libby has a point. And she didn’t mention it—probably didn’t want to seem too critical, but the strip needs more crocs.
John Falstaff over 10 years ago
In the appropriate dialect, of course, that would be “Meesta Pastes streep need more croks!”

Hey, Cartoon-Boy! Get outta the strip! You’re corrupting the characters! Let Rat take care of that!
Sorry, Miss Libby, but we understand your concerns about that Cartoon-Boy character version of Stephan. It’s his evil side expressing itself. Maybe you can find help siding with Pig and Li’l Guard Duck and Mr. Snuffles….

Stephan is his own worst critic.

With that hair, she looks like a young “Alice” from Dilbert. That would explain the swearing.

The Winy Child over 10 years ago

MeGoNow Premium Member over 10 years ago
Did she follow him into the neighborhood bar? Or is he just feeling self-conscious about the “stick figure” legs thing?
The Winy Child over 10 years ago

“Little Orphan Libby”?Yep, JPuzz, I was gonna say. That’s her, all right! I read her as a child, and when I grew up, I realized that the strip was up there with Mallard Fillmore.
Gokie5 over 10 years ago
Erase her, Stephan! You can, you know!

Libby, you were told to stop hanging out with the hack cartoonist. Neither Danny Donkey nor Dickey Cockroach have sold that well for Rat because nobody wants to pay for the hacks work.
Drewdove over 10 years ago
Hey Libby, how many nationally syndicated strips do you have?
None?
Thought so, PUNK! >:-P

Libertarian, Liberal, Libyan strike force to raid the Benghazi embassy… whatever you’ve got, really. Don’t limit yourself to a single interpretation. Life’s too short to spend it in a box.

Nothing quite as bad as being @#*# by a Second Grader…

Sell the kid to wandering gypsies, go buy a pizza and a 12-pack, enjoy life!!!!

What the audience sees in a work of art is not up to the artist. According to the rule of inverse appreciation, the extent to which an artist is remembered diminishes as an inverse square of the extent of their fame. The more famous you are, the less well you are known.

The really irritating part is that you can’t retaliate against her without getting into serious trouble.

Oh. My. God. We were SO wrong.
