Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for August 25, 2013
Transcript:
Pig: Hey, Goat. This is my friend, Patty...she doesn't like to communicate very much. Goat: Why is that/ Pig: I don't know, but she likes 'Silly Putty.' So I told her to form it into words if she'd lie. Goat: Oh, good idea. Pig: Yeah, but then she wanted privacy, so she took it into the bathroom and then came back with very few words. Goat: That's too bad. Pig: I know. Would you mind trying to talk to her? Goat: Sure. Pity you're so pithy with the putty in the potty, Patty. Pig: Did I mention she likes putt-putt golf? Rat: STOP! Goat: Please, Rat. Don't be petty to pithy Patty.

Wow… Just wow

And her boyfriend’s name is Peter Piper.
Inkwell Files over 11 years ago
Dialogue like that is probably why she stopped communicating.
punmeister over 11 years ago
She’s probably the prior Peppermint Patty of Peanuts.

Perhaps Patty was having a pity party in the potty… and had no time for petty parlance with a pig….even a pretty patient pig like Pig.
Or perhaps she dropped some putty into the potty, and had only enough left for a pithy point. (You wouldn’t want Patty to play with peed-on putty!)..Please, people! Don’t pick on ME….Pastis put the picture of Patty and Pig’s putty into the panel. Poor me, I just picked it up, like a pathetic pox.

Another pun strip where no one threatens Pastis at the end.
SusanSunshine Premium Member over 11 years ago
Haris…. there is no pun in this strip…. though there IS a pile of punishing word play…. it’s all alliteration…no pun for which to pound Pastis.

Pathologically pathetic (puke…)*

Pastis periodically provides punless Pearls.
orinoco womble over 11 years ago
Sounds like she’s having a pithy Patty pity party, and Rat’s a party pooper.
orinoco womble over 11 years ago
Did she have a pithy fit?

The alliterate illiterate.
Sisyphos over 11 years ago
Pig is petty to pithy Paddy putt-putter puttying in the potty? Pity. Pastis, plenteous penance would please me! Peace!

Poop….

Patsis sometimes broadcast his potential a mile away when you see such a setup with all the verbiage in the squares leading up to the end. In this case, no puns intended, but literally some nice alliteration having lit up our lives
finale over 11 years ago
Why punish the public that peers into Pastis’ panel perimeter?.Pure psychological punishment?

Rat is a Pest.

A few weeks my local paper dropped this comic strip. So, I dropped them. Who wouldn’t find this strip to be worthy of inclusion? Now I have to get online and also get to read all the comments. Pastis and Peanuts have always been my favorites, along with C&H, of course.
ame_baby over 11 years ago
This made my brain hurt. It’s Sunday, Pastis. :p
cilantro55 over 11 years ago
Pearls NOT pretty,What a pity!Strips like thisAre rather Sh@#$%
pnmiq over 11 years ago
This is my first time in here, so let me see if I have this right. This is a plethora of playful posters pontificating Pastis, puckishly.
pekenpug over 11 years ago
I’m with Rat.
ChessPirate over 11 years ago
Really rabid Rat, preferring painful puns, pounds Pastis’ proboscis, Police perplexed.
GoodQuestion Premium Member over 11 years ago
It’s obvious, Stephan has an awake disorder . . . ☻
Incredulous over 11 years ago
Perhaps she’s pithy Patty because she is full of pith and vinegar.

Pathetic
Lamberger over 11 years ago
This country’s alliteracy rate is climbing. But, as the poet would have said, where he but given the opportunity, “The percipitation in Portugal pelts primarily on the plateau”.
Hillbillyman over 11 years ago
My wife’s name is Patty.
bmonk over 11 years ago
Here we were all patsies for Pastis’ pithy puns, perhaps because he has perpetrated the so profoundly in the past. I perceive proudly that he has passed to alliteration.
byamrcn over 11 years ago
Not exactly pretty poetry, is it.
Sherlock Watson over 11 years ago
And the reciter of that tongue twister was (or is, depending on your POV) Micky Dolenz.
Actually, it was/is Peter Tork.
