Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 28, 2018

The upside low (no) expectations.

Keep it up pig! You are about to get run over by life! We all end up as roadkill eventually!

Pig, We’re impressed with the curing bacon.

Does this mean that Claude Monet was a very sad person?

I’m somehow thinking of Shania Twain’s “That Don’t Impress Me Much” song.

You go, Pig.

You only need to impress others when you don’t impress yourself.

Ignorance is bliss.

I’m impressed, Pig- you’ve made sense for once.

“Patheticness” — not in my dictionary. (Just an observation . . . not trying to impress.)

Pastis, this one was impressive!

Happiness is an inside job…..

Congratulation Pig, we are not impressed.

I’m impressed with you, Pig. Good job.

All we need now is a pair of rose colored glasses.

That’s actually (a version of) a pretty profound Buddhist tenet: our suffering is caused by our attachments to things we don’t have. Nice going, Stephan. Pretty sneaky.

My comments are not meant to impress anyone. And if you have read my comments, I’m sure you agree. ;-)

It’s a secure person who has no need to impress others.

Pig is right this time.

Avoid disappointment, aim low!

I had no idea Pig was a Republican senator.

Monet,Monet.Tommy James,and the Shondells?Or Billy Idol ;)

LIFE 101. Lower the bar.

Just show Pig either the News or a newspaper and his smile will turn upside down.

There’s some truth in that.

Pig knows himself well (which is why you can’t accuse him of the “ignorance is bliss” fallacy). Rat’s vocabulary is suspect, but he gets the point….

Excellent!
