Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for October 24, 2013

Maybe…and he’s fixing to beat a rat.

Careful, Rat, or he might change the labels on all your beverage cans from “BEER” to “ICED TEA.”

Rat’s back, and in top form.

You should talk, Rat. Nobody’s going to mistake you for George Clooney, either!

Said the guy with the rat face.

Did you ever look in a mirror (that didn’t break), Rat? “People who live in glass faces shouldn’t cast aspersions,” especially not at their omnipotent creators…. (Hey, Cartoon-Boy! How does it feel to be called an “omnipotent creator”?)

Now I’m wondering what I did to deserve my year around Halloween mask.

What?

Rat, do you really want to go there? ( Clown playing “Got your nose.” )

that would be the current head coach of the tampa bay buccaneers.

Wrong enough to never show it in public….

Someone once called president Lincoln two faced. He replied to her that if he was, would he really have chosen the face he had???

There’s an eraser on that pencil, rat . . . ☻

Holy crap that is funny! This strip is fast becoming my favorite!

STILL WANT MORE CROCS!

Good one!

Why was my first thought ’You go rat!"?

How does rat get away with this? You have the pencil Pastis! Make him suffer!

A good friend of mine’s dog actually drowned a week ago, so I found this strip to be a bit of a damper, not going to lie.

(Not complaining at all – I definitely agree that one can find humor in anything. Just the timing with this strip and me was a bit off).

Sorry about your friend’s dog, Spoon.

“As a beauty I’m not a great star, There are others more handsome by far, But my face, I don’t mind it, Because I’m behind it—’Tis the folks in the front that I jar.”

(Attributed to Woodrow Wilson, but actually by Anthony Euwer)

Speak for yourself, Rat!

I am still wanting a face lift (just can’t do it if they insist on strong BP meds along with dropping all my vitamins for a month (take poison and abandon my protection). I’ll just have to hope that if I find the man I want, he’ll like me as I am.

evidently Rat doesn’t own a mirror…….

Just draw Rat out of the cartoon for a few days…that’ll teach him a lesson.

Just saw Pastis in Portland. Handsome and in great shape! Don’t let him fool you.

Careful. He is the one person who can rub you out. Literally.

Or an impudent creator

Wonder what Donald Trump did…
