Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for July 20, 2016
Transcript:
Goat: I'm gonna see a therapist today. I think I may have ADHD, ADD, or OCD. Pig: Oh, yeah. I have one of those. Goat: Which one? Pig: ACDC. I can't stop listening to 'Back in Black'. Goat: I don't think that's a recognized condition. Pig: Oh, great...now I feel like worshiping Satan.

This conversation with Pig is going to shake Goat all night long.

It takes Big B@lls to admit something like that.

Never liked that group. Way too loud. And you know the rest. And this discussion, this is the reason why I name diseases and places by the full name rather than plain initials. Too many misunderstandings later on.

That made me drag out my copy of “Their Satanic Majesties Request”.

Uh-oh. Hope Ben Carson doesn’t see this. If he does, Pig will be denounced onstage in Cleveland… and so will everyone who ever said they like this strip. (cf. Saul Alinsky / Lucifer)

Also, this episode reminds me of the so-called limited animation of cheaply produced TV cartoons. “Among twenty snowy mountains the only moving things are Pig’s arms.”

I like loud music. The key word is music, which is why I never liked AC-DC. Bad vocals over five or six power chords repeated ad infinitum. I have this thing about melody and creativity.

OCD. Obviously leftwingpatriot’s problem. Who absolutely must post something – anything – every single night. At exactly 1:11 am. Must.

I’m pretty sure from personal experience that multi-tasking ultimately leads to the inability to focus on a single task, ADHD or something. I know at work after they pushed me to multi task I have a hard time focusing on one thing. I have a friend who grew up with a smart phone since he was like 10 and now can’t even watch a movie, play a computer game or anything for more than an hour or two. He can play up to 10 different games in just 4 hours…I think how can he ever finish any of them…well I guess he doesn’t cause then he just buys more and does the same thing.

Satan? Wow, the words that are allowed in comic strips.

“Thunderstruck” addict here. Everyone knows that compulsively obsessive people never have OCD because those letters are in the wrong order! It’s CDO people! Get it right!

I think OCD is the only one of those that MIGHT apply to Goat.

You could show anyone a bunch of PBS strips, and they’d never notice the difference :)

Never cared for Heavy Metal or any of its variants/offshoots. Gimme that old-time rock ‘n’ roll—Rolling Stones, Bob Seger, CCR….So glad I don’t share a malady with Pig! (Though I do have Sympathy for the Devil.)

I thought I had AC⚡DC, so I went to my urologist. He confirmed that I indeed had the biggest balls of them all.
JP Steve Premium Member over 8 years ago
I figure as long as I don’t feel the need to obsess about my OCD I’m okay.
