Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 07, 2005
Transcript:
"What are you reading, goat?" "It's the new Thomas Jefferson biography." "Oh, gee, I'd love to read about those founding father guys, but I always get hung up on something." "Is it the fact that so many of these men who proclaimed the importance of freedom were actually slave owners?" "No...it's the fact that in the 1770's, there was no deoderant...think about it...everyone smelled." "...I'll be leaving now." "...I guess the "miracle in Philadelphia was that nobody passed out."

When everyone else smells the same as you, you do not notice it.
