Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for March 06, 2019

Goat did a grape job handling this situation.

That was a peach of a job.

If fruits fail, there’s always artichoke

“Aplomb”? I know the pun is “a plum”, but I’m unfamiliar with that word.

Aplomb with attitude.

That’s just plomb silly.

He has a neighbor, Bob. Plomb Bob.

I was expecting a real plumber…

Goat is peachy keen.

Getting weirder.

And then the guy went nuts and there was this huge food fight.

Pastis is really plum-bing the depths now!

I guess Pig has never seen a plumb-bob.

Like any affliction, Punnery(the constant need to make "bad"puns) is widely misunderstood and severely under diagnosed.

Pastis has gone Bananas…it wasn’t all that grape…this one deserves a loud Raspberry…

Up next: How to defend yourself against someone who attacks you with fresh fruit.

Too much fruit has explosive effects on my digestive system.

GOAT figured the plum would spew more of an acidy directive than he could. =~}

Pastis is fruit loopy.

By the way, plum with the arms and legs reminds me of a commercial here in Taiwan for Zespri Kiwi fruits with people in oversized fruit costumes. Kind of a seedy affair for those whose life is the pits.

How can I contact GoComics? I have a few suggestions for them that would REALLY help them with both mobile and computer. On reddit, we would chat !gocomics, or u/gocomics. @gocomics

I know Pastis’ fingers are never far from the rhyming dictionary.

Why is it “a plum” or “a banana” but it’s “an apple” or “an orange”?

Really plumming the depths there, Pastis.

What no tattoo on the tough neighbor ! .. Croc Power !

Orange you glad you read this?

Should have pruned this joke.

And yesterdays “unbelievable” story from his childhood vanishes without a trace or an apology. I feel so…cheated…I wanted to trust him. How will I go on?

Where’s the guy with the baseball bat when you really need him?

Goat used a lot of di-plom-acy…he showed a lot of self confidence…there in lies the answer folks,Pastis knows what I mean ; )

Berry punny!

A large prune would’ve been scarier…

I smell desperation, Mr.Pastis!

Took me a second…

No guts Pastis, you could have gotten a twofer if you have given the plum a rainbow headband. Of course all hell would have broken lose, just like it will after this comment.

I tried handling it with a Kiwi, but his accent was too hard to understand.

I expect better (well, okay: worse) from Pastis. Geeze.

This was a clear case for Guard Duck to resolve the issue.

What a courageous plum!

sour fruit

A plumber would be more evecdtive. I know Mario is
