Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 26, 2014
Transcript:
Rat: Hey, Neighbor Bob... Want to try out my latest invention. The 'forthrightometer'? I ask you a question and it tells me whether or not your answer is what you really think. Neighbor: Why do you care what I think? You don't even like me. Rat: That's not true. Look what you've made me do.

At first, I thought it was just one of Calvin’s box with a dial drawn on it.

Imagine if one of those was placed beside every member of Congress…

Well, looks like the so-called “forthrightometer” isn’t going to get any patents.

@ Sherlock Watson
Why limit it to just congress? Almost everyone I know is a pathological liar. It’s second nature for most people.

@TheFinalSolution
No need for the despair because it does NOT apply to everyone. I for instance never lie. Detectably.

I recently saw the movie “Sunset” for the first time. James Garner played Wyatt Earp come to Hollywood, and his catchphrase throughout the movie was: It’s all true, give or take a lie or two.

Things haven’t been going all that well for Rat of late. Now, even Neighbor Bob bests him! Neighbor Bob, for heaven’s sake! Rat is hexed.

Can you imagine what would happen if Rat took that to Washington?

Don’t blame Neighbour Bob for your own wrongdoings, Rat.

@SisyphosRat is not hexed he is just experiencing a little karma for trying to become a saint. Pastis should send him to a circus so Rat can be cannonized…without the net.

@gallar
I’m sorry. I didn’t realize that the words “ALMOST” and “MOST” were not available in your browser. Besides, I don’t know your lying posterior. :=)
