Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 15, 2012
Transcript:
Pig: I hear you lost your radio job. Guard Duck: Yes, sir... I clashed with station management. Pig: Well, l'il Guard Duck... If there's one thing I've learned in life, it's that you really have to pick your battles. Guard Duck: You do? Pig: Yeah. Guard Duck: Then I pick all of them. Pig: I don't think that's how that works. Guard Duck: Now that I've picked them, can I go back and fight them?

That’s what an advice columnist does, pick other peoples’ battles.

What can be more fun than battle…? that’s why you quackers watch football and why I practice a gung fu and engage in LOCAL political campaigns. Win? so you take the goodies you got…from knocking over a castle, etc…and then the real fun is over, there’s nothing but drinking and wenching…great but predictable. The battle? ah.. that’s really everything….come on, Tonto, maybe we can help them out over the hill…

Li’l [preferred form, pace Pig in panel 2] Guard Duck believes he can win them all! And I wouldn’t bet against him, as long as they follow kung-fu movie rules (i.e., when 73 bad guys attack the hero, they ALWAYS go against him one at a a time)!

The animation stuff is great also, the disagreeable food is my favorite of all I have watched.

Surprising that Toon Boy used that dumb Pig, to give advice to LGD, and not Goat.

It ain’t the size of the duck in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the duck. Go, L’il Guard Duck, go! You’re a true warrior!

I just realized that GD is really my husband in disguise! And I’m like Pig – opposites attract and sometimes clash.

LGD, never give up the fight! toss a grenade into the management floor, take over and have it as your own radio station!

How did Guard Duck become such a warmonger?

Pig, Don’t go into details right now.
Otherwise Guard Duck will misunderstand.

that’s okay. Radio is dead anyway. TV killed the radio star.

GD is a bit trying. I wish he’d go and campaign for some of the extremists candidates out there and leave the rest of us alone.

You can pick your battles, your friends, and your nose, but if you try to pick your friend’s nose he’ll put up a fight.
eddie6192 about 12 years ago
You are absolutely correct. That dumb Pig is, sweet, naive, innocent, kind, compassionate and trusting.

Five bucks says anything that you say to guard duck will result in violence. Even “I think fluffy kittens are adorable.”
