Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for June 26, 2016

Hit the hand he draws with; he doesn’t use it anyway.

Is there one for backhanding reckless cyclists across the face?

Hey, can you really mute people on Twitter?that would be a marvelous feature and it ought to be incorporated into every Internet forum!

Let the brawn begin! And why do I need the coupons if you can just go to the Lucha Libre?

It’s your own fault, Cartoon-Boy!So, take your raps like a Man…err…Cartoon-Boy.

I want some—nay, all—of these coupons….

I SO agree with the third coupon (4th panel).

Ooompa loompa doompadi-ouch! That mean old rat can sure be a grouch! Oompa loompa doompadi-dee! Oh well, at least that kick was for free!

Rat think before you act………….That is the hand that feeds you your Beer :-O

I don’t think too many folks will be clipping those coupons, aside from Toon Boy.

Rat’s coupons seem a tad bit skewed toward the violent, no?

Rat forgot people that post pictures of food on social media.

250 free 2,000,000 volt joy buzzers to any cartoonist who comic uses bad words.

I was wondering what happened to the oompa loompas. Glad to see the term is back.

One punch to the head to anyone over 25 who wears his baseball cap backward (bonus punch to anyone over 35 who wears a baseball cap)

One spanking machine to anyone who doesn’t pull up their un-cool drooping pants!

Hmm, well, I wonder if Rat would object to my glasses which change to tinted in the sunlight, but are clear when I’m indoors. If I meet him, better take preemptive action and punch him in the head first.Seems like the solution to the Twitter and Facebook issues is not to use either one. Works for me.You’re right, Stephan. I still like your strip, but it was a lot better when you were only a very occasional character. That early strip that is supposedly drawn from the perspective of a neighbor of yours is a classic.

A swift boot to the danglies to parents who need to show pictures of schnookums first bowel movement.

A spinning roundhouse kick to the face of anyone who cancels a series that’s made it through a second season after a major cliffhanger and never resolves the story. i.e. Alpha’s and The Glades.

A Punch to the nose of anyone who cancels a show after the first season and getting good review i.e Limitless

Hey, billionaires ask? I thought they just told city council how it was gonna be …

This is so truthful and direct. You have hit the nail 101% on the head.

last coupon about the bat…can i get at least 2 coupons to use for writers like Stephen King & Stan Lee in the movies?? I worship the mind of Stephan Pastis!!

The citizens of Arlington, TX, sure could use that 3rd coupon (4th panel) right now!!

I’ll take the Twitter coupon please!

(By the way, I don’t use Twitter)

Citizens of Chicago cashed in the third coupon nine years ago, when we told our “leaders” we had no interest in hosting the 2016 Olypmics. Sorry, Rio—you should have clipped your coupon!

Not that Seattle is exactly poor but when billionaire Sam Schultz owner of Starbucks sold our beloved nba team the Supersonics to Oklahoma rebranded the Thunder. The reason being was Seattle wouldn’t cough up the $$$$ for a new stadium he wouldn’t finance himself. One big kick in the Oompa Loompas for good ol Sam

Sometimes non-blind people wear sunglasses indoors because they have a migraine. Just sayin’.

Shucks, I wear sunglasses inside at times. Really bright lights and certain colours wreak havoc on my eyes.Getting hit in the head or take off my glasses – either way I’d end up with a headache.

let me see – where did i put my printer – oh yeah!one sheet of useful printed coupons coming up.-see you at your next book signing pastis :)(just kidding)

Wow, I’m with Rat for once. But he left out guys with manbuns (in their hair).

Lifetime driving ban to those who don’t use their turn signals, and a can of spray paint down the throat of graffiti “artists”.

I could use a coupon for a cheap ham right about now.

I only Tweet my political opinions. I can’t see what other possible use there could be for Twitter.

I actually could use some of those. Don’t ask me which ones, 5th Amendment.

Wow … I hadn’t thought about how long it’s been since we’ve seen the phrase Oompa Loompas here. It always makes me laugh.

The one about billionaires and stadiums – Texas residents might FINALLY be realizing they’re being abused by both their representatives and the billionaire class, by what they’re trying to pull now relative to the new baseball stadium.

Aggh! I just broke my computer trying to cut the coupons out…

This strip reminds me of another guy, which he was doing a similiar feature in his strips…
