Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for December 09, 2017

You go to art museums to meet girls.

I bet this is Herr Drumpf’s IQ test he gives to those wanting to work for him. Hey, since Rat is president in the PBS universe it now makes a lot more sense!

To meet girls, we don’t go to museums here in Alabama, we go to family reunions-or the mall.

That’s not an intelligence quotient test.

That is a pretentious quotient test.

,I worked at a college museum once, I worked for the curator. My IQ doubled, 85 Jerry!

Sometimes art museums feature comic strip artists. I’ll bet this one will be posted right at the entrance.

Those questions are not on the Wechsler or Stanford-Binet IQ tests.

My grandson who is eight, just went to one and like it.

Some, but not all people, like art museums.

Some, but not all people, pretend to look smart.

Some, but not all people, are smart enough to like art museums.

Rat will have an IQ of 200+ according to his test.

I like art… But the museum thing, I don’t know. I DO like discovery museums, though.

Who would want to take an Idiot Quotient test?

Oh! I thought he said some people are like art museums … dust collecting stiffs …

This is reminding me of the arc where Pig worked as a janitor at a Modern Art Museum, but he left his broom some place. The next morning, there was a crowd around it. I’ll link the strip later.

It’s the president’s custom I.Q. test based entirely on opinions.

It depends on the art, impressionist and modern can be thrown away, but the ‘Dutch Masters’ were great. The only problem is museums lending to other museums – when you go to see a particular piece, it might be gone for 3+ months to another. Not an event I can even reach or even want to be at that location. Luckily, the most popular just don’t move – just because of logistics and insurance/security.

Next question: People read Playboy and Penthouse just to read the articles. True or false?

I’m scared to take an IQ test. I wouldn’t consider myself smart at all. Just average.

All you need to Rule the World is your own red buzzer-button and a liberal dose of moxie.

Hey! Rat! I like art museums! So, there….

IQ Test, the game show!

I go to art museums hoping to finally make sense of modern art. Hasn’t happened yet.
