Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for December 14, 2024

I’m picturing the beginning of the old TV show “The Incredible Hulk,” where the word “Anger” becomes the word “Danger.”

I wonder how they made Rat angrier than normal. That’s miraculous.

At T University, they teach that if somebody calls you a liar, double down on the lie. If that fails, get angry and accuse them of doing the same thing.

Rat must be watching cable TV news again!

Lessen learned.

They should have something like anger management for people who make other people angry!

I guess you gotta go with what you know.

Forgets Angry Birds. Coming soon new game Angry Rats.

Remember the columnist Ed Anger, whose prose appeared in Weeky World News?!

How about a lesson on channeling your anger?

What’s funny about it? I checked my court order and it says “anger management.” It doesn’t say anything about suppressing it… And I’m doing great! 5 points above inflation! :D

Goat should know that “Less is more”.

The most dangerous person to any form of oppression or tyranny is the one who can oppose them while retaining a sense of serenity and humor.

Goat never seems to tire of being straight man for Rat.

I wonder how it will advance during the next 4 years.

For starters, avoid reading right-wing populist editorial cartoonists. Let me know if you need names.

Considering just how insanely hard, medically speaking, today is going to be for me, I just wanna say to everyone who has posted so far, and everyone who has posted before, everyone who will post, everyone who reads the comic strip here, and just plain, old, regular, everyone in general: thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you tha-(think of this in sing-song, with NO SARCASM INTENDED!!!!!!) Dan aka…ps again, thanks!!!!!!!
