Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 13, 2021

For Pig, that’s another ordinary day.

That term is “YouTube”.

It’s not luck when you’re the Greatest Of All Time….

Laziness and stupidity : it’s my ex boss.

The boss v. leader. Boss fits this,

Stupidity (politician) meeting the stupidity (voter) = some jerk making the laws.

Goat married the boss’ daughter!

We call that unearned confidence Pig…usually accompanied by the phrase…”Hold my beer and watch this”

What happens? Why, nothing much at all.

The term is “normal”.

♫ If it weren’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all ♫

Laziness and stupidity, that abounds in the House of Representatives.

It’s called indolence.

Laziness + stupidity = mediocrity. If you add in a touch of procrastination to mediocrity then it suddenly becomes failure.

So, if Goat is synonymous with Subaru; then, I guess Pig’s direct link is Lada.

Laziness & Stupidity = The Human Race

Preparation meeting opportunity is like the opposite of luck.

The answer to that party is “Qpublican Party”.

Pigs are actually supposed to be super smart. Maybe Pig is different or he just doesn’t like being smart.

Bacon happens, pig. Bacon.

The answer is “failure”.

Actually, luck sometimes happens when laziness meets stupidity also. And it’s not always bad luck, either. Life is definitely not fair.

Sometimes it is just luck. Even when Preparation meets Opportunity, the Preparation isn’t luck, but the Opportunity often is.

I think is also spelled ‘promotion’. English is a weird language

Bureaucracy.

I only got promoted because I loved my job and gave it all I had.!

Laziness & Stupidity = government dependent

Where does Goat work? I’ve followed PB4S since it began, & I don’t remember Paris (Goat’s real name) working anywhere.

Any one else not get distracted by trump vs biden argument but instead noticed that its the same stinkin’ picture in all four panels. Pretty sure that Stephen uses an aluminum bat because no one has the muscles for a wooden bat with that big of a sweet spot.

Can’t beat that BasilBruce! GREAT ONE!

This is what we call a “press conference”

Sloth.

I’m surprised no one else has suggested the obvious. Laziness + stupidity = Loser.

That term is also Larry croc

“Trump”

There’s gotta be a name for it as there are so many lazy, non-productive and stupid people in our society……

right there with ya, Pig.

Me. It’s me!

Poor Pig.

Art work the past two days is efficient: Copy the first panel. Then paste, paste, paste for the rest.

I call it “Contentment.”

Yep, luck favors the prepared mind. And if Louis Pasteur hadn’t lived, where would humanity be today?

The Great American Slacker, everyone loves them

Laziness meets stupidity? ….. hummmm … A Democrat congress person!

Failure.

I tend to politics

Actually I believe the term is Government Employee.

Twitter happens.

That’s been my sweet spot since the pandemic started.

It’s called “The Simpsons”.

Joe Biden.

Too bad you’re not smart, Pig. According to this article, you can be lazy and successful…just not lazy, stupid, and succesful.

To answer the question in panel 3: You start looting with impunity.

Not sure what the term should be, but it fits Pig like a glove. Call it "luck,’ in a sense, the luck of the draw….

What happens when laziness meets stupidity?? Why, a promotion to upper-level management, of course! Peter Principle uber alles!!

“Laziness meets Stupidity” Garfield and Jon.

Politics
