Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for December 01, 2015

Time to smack the cartoonist.

I see a bovine class action suit coming

SP really knows how to milk a gag for all it’s worth.

Goat and Cow do look remarkably similar (even Zebra)

Oh please tell me we’re in for Guard Duck waging a second war on cows. Think that was the story arc with Snuffles becoming a helikitty that got merged into the Rat forms his own country arc and the crocs dealing with “Da Google.”

Is a Holy Cow udderly divine?

Then blame the cartoonist…..

Slap Cartoon-Boy silly with your… you know, Connie. Then, hurry on to Neighbor Bob’s wedding! Who would marry the Walking Dead, anyway (all Neighbor Bobs croak, sooner or later)?

Straight from the cow’s mouth. You heard it here first. Now, for the udder side of the story, Heeere’s Stephan…..

Did you hear about the farmer who milked his cow with cold hands? He had no feeling for udders.

Rat thinks that that pun lack-toses any humour in it.

Udderly ridiculous!

Mastitis from the milking machine?

Come on, the joke here wasn’t calf bad.

Now I’M going to leave him! Stop these hideous puns and bring back (Worry)Wart Hog!

LOL!

I actually guess that one before the reveal

they all talk about you, down on the farm.

I saw it coming from the first line, tried to turn away, but I just had to look, ( having read the boooook )

Ouch. Taking the insults to a personal level, Connie?

Groan. just whenI thought it couldn’t get any worse

If it’s not one thing, it’s the udder

Hell, it made me laugh.

I vass mosssst amussssed!

connie just don’t back into the fan at the wedding. we don’t want an udder disaster of significance!!!!!!!!!!sorry – well not really

I found this strip very a-moo-sing

I know that I am probably going to be excoriated for opining this, but am I really alone in thinking that it is incredibly and cringeworthily narcissistic – and also somewhat unprofessional – for a cartoonist to make himself a major character in a comic strip which he is writing? Pastis sure loves himself (rolls eyes)…

That’s just Pastis doing anything that he can think of to feed his gargantuan ego and attract attention to himself. His narcissism is positively vomitous.

Cows have hooves, no toes, so pig has lack toes tolerance.

Is there no udder people you can go with?

Hey, Stephen started the joke!

xxx

Connie should put something on.She must be Friesian.

Separate Stephan Pastis the cartoonist with Stephan Pastis the comic strip character. I really love having wondered so much about this earlier this year that I looked up to see if it was based on reality and learned that some folks didn’t believe Staci when she was telling them it was only in the strip it was happening. And it was folks who were supposed to be close to them.

I kinda like this pun today.

Yawn. That’s the end of this strip for me. It’s been on probation since “taking my talents”, yesterday’s only made it worse and now I don’t see any point anymore. Goodbye.

Milked that one, Pastis !

I love this strip and I love Pastis. I think he’s cute.

Waited til all the comments were in… still an udder failure

OK, seriously—where does Pastis keep getting all these cringe-worthy (yet amusing) puns?

Not sure whether to laugh or to punish him.

(I would make some “udderly” joke, but looks like many posters beat me to it.)

right on fly !

Maybe she should call her cousin the mad cow from Liberty Meadows

It’s not just her udder. Cow’s horns seem to be growing frame by frame.

Can I horn in here? This pun seems to be an udder disaster. The way Stephan spins a tail, you know what is coming out in a minute.
