Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 25, 2024

Amazing how she can be a sow and a b!tch at the same time.

When you first set up your account, you can lie about things like that. You can lie about your favorite color and movie. You could pick a color like “Zuckerberg Pale”.

One way to keep his spending down!

Her maiden name would remain the same.

“I’m sorry, Sir, that’s incorrect.”

So what’s in a name? Plenty……

If she changed her name after marriage, it’s not her maiden name.

I didn’t even know the characters had last names.

They ask for the maiden name not the changed name so the trick doesn’t work

How could she not like Pig?

Ideally you should not use real, discoverable information as part of your access credentials anyway. Better to make up stuff.

“Nevermind” would be a better choice for her mother’s maiden name.

Wow, she’s kinda petty.

In reading the comics I can only assume that the sense of humor has been lost. Far too many are not getting the joke because they are focused on details. Hyperbole and assumption are part of the recipe. This strip is hilarious.

I wonder how often tele-bankers have gone to verify a customer’s identity and had to review embarrassing/snarky security answers?

It’ll get even more confusing when mom changes her gender

Aawww, mean mom!

You don’t need to give your actual mother’s maiden name (and some would say you shouldn’t) — as long as you can remember what you did tell them.

If I told you once, I’ve told you a million times, it’s “MOM!”

as Uncle Kenny said, her maiden name would remain the same, unchangeable.

Whenever I hear “Never Mind,” I always hear it in the voice of Gilda Radner playing Emily Litella.
