Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for March 27, 2021

Some good may come from this painful pun if Rat keeps his head covered.

snap judgements?

Rat needs his Louisville Slugger today.

I just hope Pig doesn’t make noises with his knuckles when he starts a card game; I’d hate to see him become a crack dealer.

Today’s strip is both creepy, and ooky.

Oh, Rat, you should be used to this by now. :-)

Pig has a point, there are certainly those who can SNAP, and those who can’t.

Ah. Rat is a fan of the New Orleans Saints from the Days Before Drew Brees.

That says a lot since Rat is a shameless critter.

looks like rat snapped…

Eat Rice Krispies and have Crackle and Pop as well!

“Oh snap!” Rat is making a judgment about the judgment of Stephen Pastis to use Goat and Pig making judgments of finger snaps to make a comic about “making snap judgments”.

i didin’t get it

So Rat let the cat out of the bag to demonstrate what he’s thinking

Snap out of it, Rat!

A " West Side Story " moment …

Don’t let the rat out of the bag!

What would the Internet be without snap judgments?

Not me yet please keep it up please please please ect.

When I snap both fingers, I sound like Bobby Darin.

Isn’t the end of Rat’s nose bigger than the hole in the bag?

More snappy repartee?

Pig is already making snap judgements…and Rat just complained to the establishment…..

SNAP – today’s strip is good.

I like buttons better than snaps. Is that a snap judgment?

I want to thwonk Rat’s nose in that last frame.

Can’t wait for you to get to crackle and pop.

They must be at a beatnik cafe.

Sometimes I wanna snap Pastis’ neck.

Hey Rat, Come on, Snap out of it!

He finally snapped

I do not believe that mask is Covid 19 approved, but it does improve your looks.

He should be standing next to Sylvester the Cat’s son. “Oh Father…”

No more puns!

Rat needed a snappier comeback.

Too bad Pastis escaped the Thanos snap!

The part I love about this strip is trying to anticipate panel 3.

Rat is definitely not a snappy dresser!

Keep that bag on, Rat. It’s a good look for you.

Just discovered a bit of strangeness. Broke my left wrist almost a year ago and that hand never fully recovered — can’t make a complete fist. Yet that’s the hand that delivers a snappy snap, while my good right hand cannot. There’s a moral to that story somewhere…

We’re with you Stephan, don’t knuckle under!

Someday, I will use this!

oh, Snap!

It looks more like you’ve been underwhelmed.

And Rat got appundicidis.

Now that’s funny.

I don’t know why Rat is so embarrassed. This isn’t anywhere near the worst pun to which this pun has subjected us.

Isn’t there a bicycle seat company called Snapsnatch or something?

Shame? This strip is notoriouslyy shameless

Of course, I just had to snap my fingers.

This is a medium pun. It isn’t rare and it certainly isn’t well done.

I can’t snap my fingers on my right hand. Don’t know why, even as a kid I’ve nver been able to do so with my right hand. Left hand I get good, crisp snaps. Right hand sounds like rubbing fabric against fabric.

I wonder how rat can see out of that.

Would that pun be considered finger-clicking good?

I guess he couldn’t draw a conclusion to jump to.

I understand your shame, Rat, And I remember that you are Cartoon-Boy’s alter ego. Does this that he also is ashamed of his shameless word-play?

I’m tempted to wear a paper bag, too. And I’m just a reader!
