Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 08, 2017

In England people pay for their medical care this way.

don’t tell me Pig didn’t have enough money (cash OR credit)

Rat would probably have gotten into a long line and then written a check, so he could p!ss off as many people as possible.

I would not want to throw out $79.20 to hug a pig. I would rather eat the pig. Pork steaks are wonderful. My credit card is my friend. 2% cash back and I pay for the whole thing every month so there is no interest.

$79.20 for two lousy bags of groceries? Someone needs to take a class on food budgeting.

What I hate is when they ask “paper or plastic” and I don’t know if they mean the money or the bags.

Pig: Gas….Grass…..or A$$…..nobody rides for free…….

Yeah Pig, and the moon is a harsh mistress.

What’s a ROCERY?

Try taking a hug to the bank.

Hugs are not a tradable commodity, Pig.

You can go that way, Pig, but there’s more to it than just a hug. South Park: BL&C had a song about it.

The grocer wants his pound of flesh… don’t stand too close or you’ll end up in the bacon display.

I’m not really sure what Capitalism has to do with this.

“Yes, Sir. A big, warm and wonderful hug sounds great. AFTER you have paid the $79.20”

Grow up, Pig. How have you survived this long? Does Rat do all the buying (or stealing, whatever) for the household?

So much for hamming it, Pig… Fortunately for you he didn’t ask to be paid in Pork Chops…

BRIBE HUG!!
