Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for January 15, 2024

One thing I’m a success at is failing.

I’ve never had Success; I like Minute Rice just fine.

Has Pastis been handed a report of the last decade of my life?!

Since Pig gave up hope, he feels a lot better!

My sister was a cheer leader, and her squad liked those “spell the word” cheers. Of course we made fun of her whenever possible. Such as with this:

“Ess you see see ee ess ess, what does it spell? It spells Suck Cess”

Keep hanging around with Rat and Goat, Pig. You’ll do just fine.

Well is a deep subject, Pig!!

Sorry pig, you are decent and inspirational, you are what I call a hidden sucess story…

That donkey may be wise, but he’s not very friendly.

If you set a low bar for yourself …

Well that’s a little depressing.

Take one day at a time and do your best. Don’t compare yourself to others.

this is why I lowered my expectations

Coping with failure? Push past it.

Don’t succeed… Wise lesson. The Wise Donkey is pretty good at that. :)

Some people start at the bottom, and they just like it.

Having no ambition is a wonderful thing.

The wise a$$ can help you cope.

The wise A$$ has a point.

I’m wondering if there’s a Wiser A$$ on The Hill as I’m no longer certain if I’d go to the Wise A$$ on the Hill for such low-grade inspirations.

Dang

Drink beer and set your life’s stories to country/western music.

“I’m a loser baby, so why don’t ya kill me.” Beck

The not so wise @ss isn’t much help for those who really need help….

Typical of Pig’s take on life. Not the best, but it’s certainly one way to look at it.

A long-ago friend’s motto, “If at first you don’t succeed, to heλλ with it.”

If you don’t play you can’t lose.

Failure is the mortar for the bricks of your success building.

cope harder pig

Wishing you a meaningful Martin Luther King Day.

We must succeed or we risk the chance of failure.

I have a question for the Wise Donkey: When you tell people to wait a moment or stand by, they instead keep talking?

That’s kind of deep. I’m going to have to give this some thought.

Pig’s got this one down pat! Failure is his winner….

Just don’t get caught not having any success!
