Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 08, 2016

And this year’s winner is Elaine the shoplifter from Arkansas .

Pig, how about changing to title to Miss Laid, and offering to personally “qualify” the contestants?

Every contestant would be asked the same question:Are you de meaner one?

Three strikes and you’re a winner!

Honestly, Stephan, this one got big chortles from me. Thanks.

It was sad. All the women who entered the competition slipped out the back way when they found out that Rat was on the panel of judges. Pig thought they’d been kidnapped and called 911. They tried to get him to specify the nature of his emergency… but finally hung up because he kept repeating, “I TOLD you! It’s a big Miss take!”

Pastis that pun should be a felony.

As she fell-on the floor………………..

Today’s strip is a misdemeanor.

No, Rat. The felons are too busy with Election 2016.

This comic is a Miss Demeanor (sometimes).

Is Miss Demeanor 2016 the preliminary to the foxy felon 10-2-20 contest?

Missy Misdemeanor?

It’s better than that beauty contest they had at Outback, Miss Steak.

Another Miss Fire from Steph.

Some would say that all beauty pageants are miss demeaners.

more crocs. and hurry.

You must allow transgenders, too. Bulgy Miss Demeanors.

chuckle chuckleboil and bubblepastis cooks one up again

Nah, the shoplifters should be in the Miss Take contest.

If there are any felons I’m sure they’ll steal the show.

The Celebrity version would be must see TV alone

One of my most favorite comics !!!! Thanks Pastis !!!!

You could have one for Obummer….call it Miss Take.

A little obvious with the setup, Steph. Saw that one coming in the first panel.

And here is Miss Take, the former vampire.

To “re-think” this, Goat, one must assume that Pig “thought” in the first place! LMAO at that!(Shut it, Rat. Cartoon-Boy is bad enough without your help.)

One of the contestants is the winner of the Central States Beef Council’s contest… Miss Steak.

And one contestant from the fertility clinic… Miss Conception

Sorry, Stephen. This is not one of your best ones.

Yes Rat, felony’s qualify. And Pig already has the winner lined up. She’s the most felonious person in the nation.

Hands up all those who consulted their Robert Asprin library for inspiration (or was that just a myth?)

There are a lot of various different beauty contests a young lady can enter, but the one who wins the greatest variety clearly must be Miss Cellany.

Then there’s the winner who constantly gets herself into minor troubles, Miss Chevious.

And we can’t forget the one who uses violence to win (she won’t let us!), the Hitter Miss.

Has anyone seen my realtor – Miss Deed?

Or the winner with a taste for everything exciting, Miss Adventure.

George W. Bush’s daughter made a surprisingly well showing in the contest – Miss Underestimated!

For appearances’ sake , several pastis were supplied at the booking.

How about basing it on knowledge? You could call it Miss Information.
