Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 01, 2020

So we should get rid of Rat and those like him to make life easier.

Perhaps the other driver could just park his car on another spot, such as Rat’s feet.

“Love thy neighbor as thyself” only works well with those who love themselves…

There are a lot of rats around, aren’t there?

Pastis needed a counter-example of good behavior. That’s probably why Pastis made him be a rat.

When you are the supreme leader of North Korea, you can think like that.

Be a good neighbor. Park Rat’s car on his bed.

“Lock him up!”

it’s more entertaining if everyone acts just as badly as rat…

What do you expect from a Rat ? … Croc Power !

My New York friend’s mother-in-law would take her knife out and puncture TWO tires on double parked cars. Yikes!

Pretty sure that’s exactly how the world works, Goat.

Rat really puts the rat into “rat”!

You’re supposed to double park adjacent an EMPTY parking space, Lightwieght!

Call this the “Rategorical Imperative”.

Anyone can serve as a bad example

Vengeance is Rats MO!

Why does Goat even try to get through to that rodent?

Bet Rat goes to church every Sunday, too. . .sigh.

b.rat

Then the idiot who praises, with enthusiastic toneAll centuries but this, and every country but his own;

Too many in the world are like Rat, and worse.

Throw that rule out the window in Portland!

CALIFORNIA 101.

There is little worse than the offensive, inconsiderate double-parker or those who (as in my favorite overseas city) park on the sidewalk, in crosswalks, and in front of handicap access ramps. I walk over them,, and if I had a hammer….

This is your day for retribution, Rat. Today, Cartoon-Boy gets to wield the bat and you get the lumps, or, as some say, eat wood!

By the way, what’s the current count?

I actually like Rat. He’s funny and we could all use some funny these days. :)

Where’s zeeba neighbor’s friend?
