Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for June 10, 2020

I would like to throw masks at some people but they would claim it’s a hoax.

Wow, Rat… You just now noticed that?

You’re stupid, too.

Where’s Krazy Kat when Rat needs her(no brick but a book’ll do}!

Remember what Einstein said: The difference between genius and stupidity is, genius has its limits.

R naught for the stupidity virus is limited by the fact that stupid people aren’t very good at being stupid in more than one way at a time. Though some of them have become quite expert, after all that practice.

Will the protests stop now?

Stupidity is very contagious!

Apart from hydrogen, the most common thing in the universe is stupidity.

i heard that clorox injections cure stupidity…

Seems to be the norm amongst my neighbors too. Fools won’t wear a face mask.

If only we could convince people that education is vital, and that understanding civics and a citizen’s responsibility is crucial, we might do better when we pick our leaders.

“Book ’em, Danno! Moron One!”

Since when does Rat read books?

Stupidity is a virus for which there will never be a cure for. It fact it could be what ends the human race.

One’s stupid may be another’s genius ;-) … Croc Power !

Agent K (Men In Black): A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky animals…

Instead of wasting 4 years learning crap you’ll never use in high school, they should teach practical living. People have no clue about a lot of things in life and make bad mistakes. But I know when the War of 1812 was, big deal. How about learning about loans or buying a car.

Half the people in the world are below average.

if only it was that simple…..

I liked my own comment

Stupidity is running rampant. Reflecting on our current society, between the Pandemic, the George Floyd protests, and other hardships in life, things are not going well. But, we must focus on a very important thing : FOR ONCE RAT WAS RIGHT.

Rat, your big mistake is paying to attention to the news.

Rat, the bat.

Oh, Rat. You have never been so more right.

Reruns :(

We now have a system of government where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confinscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

How is stupidity new?

This pandemic seems to have amplified our society’s stupidity. But we need to stop awarding it; in politics and elsewhere.

Throwing the book at them won’t really help, though it might knock some of them out.

Examples please

SO true!!

’Twas ever thus.

The stupidity pandemic.

Stupidity had been slowly gaining a foothold for decades, then the advent of social media really gave it a boost. Now the news outlets are celebrating it.

Funny, I don’t usually see Rat doing much reading. He’s usually the first to make fun of Goat’s tendency to read and think about things.

I want to hug this strip.

I’d like to “throw the book” at the entire willfully negligent, overtly hostile, and eminently smug criminal conspiracy, starting with the Orange Anthropoid, and burrowing deep into the rat warren upon which he sits, covering them all with that enormous ass.

Weather report: The relative stupidity is 80% today.

Read those books.

PS How are the CROCS handling the virus?

You can’t fix stupid!

Won’t help. As Dorothy Parker pointed out, “You can lead a horticulture but you can’t make her think”.

Rat you da stupid one

Unfortunately, lawsuits are also epidemic. “Throwing the book” at someone might be taken the wrong way.

The truest cartoon of the day.

How about a nice solid slap to the head… I call it percussive maintenance

Well, something our U.S.A.-wide leaders lack is courage, morality, and forthrightness.

For perhaps the ultimate in stupidity, check out the 5GBioShield website.

Stupidity is our national motto.

First book needs to be thrown at Rat.

It’s rather sad to see people here believing that stupidity is political and belonging to one party or one person. Stupidity is a universal quality that has been here since humans first appeared and will be here after we kill ourselves.

I keep seeing people driving, wearing a mask, no one else in the car. .

Am I reading Pearls Before Swine or The Wizard of Id?

Indeed….Stupidity runs rampant. Look at all the political BS on a COMICS page.

Curing rampant stupidity is going to take way more than just a good booking, Rat….

Oh, no! They got Rat!
