Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for June 11, 2011
Transcript:
Rat: Pig, take a memo.... I have a final wish that I'd like you, my friends, to take note of and fulfill should I die an untimely death. Pig: Sure, Rat, what is it? Rat: I'd like you, too, to stop living. Goat: You might be a little vain. Rat: Oh, and make the world stop. It shouldn't go on without me. Pig: 'Stop.. Whole... World...'

I don’t feel like other planets deserve existence continuing after mine. Destroy them too.

For a second I thought we were in for a heart felt moment. Well, for a split second that is.

The world stops for no one, Rat.

I like this idea, but I don’t think I’ll ask. I can’t even convince people that when I die they should make a musuem/mausoleum in remembrance…

You’re so vain, you thought this whole world was about you! Didn’t you? Didn’t you? —Pig, you can give it a break….

As for myself, I don’t think I could live in a world without any more Danny Donkey stories…

Rat might be a little vain, but Pig does tend to go any way the wind blows.

C’mon, admit it! Deep down inside, we all feel that way.

Comic should have said “two” in the middle, not “too!” Doesn’t any one know English anymore?

If Rat feel over dead while walking in the woods by himself…would it make a noise if there was no one around to hear it?

I sense that goat won’t ratify that memo.

Rat is a jerk, he didn’t even order anything.

I think they should hire LGD and give Rat an immediate “timely” death, just in case…

Rat sounds like Harold Camping…come to think of it, I’ve never seen them together!!

LOVE the detail of Pig’s tongue sticking out of the edge of his mouth as he concentrates on writing down Rat’s instructions!

Whoa Rat, who died and made you “God”? Only the almighty himself can stop the world, not you!
mac47 over 13 years ago
I agree with Rat’s final wish (Stop whole world). When I die, I wouldn’t want to miss out on future events. An alternative, though, could be reincarnation or at least somehow finding out what happens through my future subscription to “Earth News From Heaven.”

I’d like to think the world would stop for a billionth of a second when I die, but it’s not going to happen. Hopefully I’ll outlive everyone I know so I won’t be missed.
Sherlock Watson over 13 years ago
I have a feeling that Rat’s “friends” won’t do any of those things, ‘cause they’ll be too busy conga dancing.
gene2u over 13 years ago
@Doctor Toon – True, the world could just be a thought experiment that ends with your permanent loss of conciousness.
Logical Duck over 13 years ago
And the rat won’t goatify it either!

I didn’t know Pig was left-handed pigs are?
codedaddy over 13 years ago
@russ Read it again noting the comma, and substitute “as well” for “too” and you’ll get the English.

This was actually ancient Egyptian culture. Whenever a pharaoh died, his entire crew would also be killed and buried in his pyramid.

This s totally off topic but I hate the people who don’t like pearls. Sometimes I agree with them though so it evens out.
