I guess Pigita should have been playing more attention to the game.

Pigita plays Monopoly like it was Stay Alive.
Alohacat over 12 years ago
or Battleship, even.

Couldn’t you wait, Pigita, until Pig finished his sentence before before crashing a lamp on his noggin?
Varnes over 12 years ago
Hey, it doesn’t matter…Cheating is cheating, no matter what you’re cheating at, isn’t it?…If cheating is wrong, then… well? KSSSH!!!

Confession may be good for the soul, but it can be murder on your head!
bmonk over 12 years ago
Good riddance to that lamp. I always hated it anyway.

Maybe if he gave her $200 she’d let him pass go…

Maybe if he gave her $200, she’d let him past “Go?!. . ..”

Pigita is such a…pig! Why does Pig keep coming back to her after all the vile mistreatment and cheating she has inflicted upon him? DOWN WITH PIGITA! Bring back Sweet Fanny!
chris_weaver over 12 years ago
Pigita REALLY hates getting stiffed!
doublepaw over 12 years ago
We almost has a ground hog day.
Lowtech over 12 years ago
Oh, Pig!
Lowtech over 12 years ago
and Battleship is pretty much the easiest game to cheat with.
SwimsWithSharks over 12 years ago
Pig’s a sub.
Sandfan over 12 years ago
And on the Reading RR, she’s known as a good ride.
smoore47 over 12 years ago
Pig needs a Get Out of Jail card.
hariseldon59 over 12 years ago
At least it wasn’t Boardwalk.
dzeeba over 12 years ago
go directly to jail pigita. do not pass go do not collect 200 dollars
Stagger Lee over 12 years ago
Now he is really broke.
dbwindhorst over 12 years ago
Good thing they weren’t playing Clue.
Snoopy_Fan over 12 years ago
Pig… Always finish your sentence BEFORE you pause for a response…
Andrew Capp over 12 years ago
Are you a natural misogynist, or did you have a bad experience?
Number Three over 12 years ago
Awwwwwwww, Poor Pig.
LOL LOL xxx

You’re replying to hawgowar’s comment:@ИOMЯOM (comixavier):
“Why should Pigita be different from any other woman on the planet? ;-)”
So… are you claiming to have met all the other women on the planet, and to have assessed each and every one by objective and scientific reasoning, thereby enabling you to quantify and qualify your assertion that all women are the same?Or are you simply prejudiced, and unable to differentiate individuality due to some deficiency in mental ability?
tigre1 over 12 years ago
You never really know what it’s worth to you until it isn’t yours any longer…a rational pig/ita would find somebody else to play with…
tigre1 over 12 years ago
Besides, he didn’t cheat. She didn’t notice. Love has very little to do with real estate or Monopoly, does it? I’m trying to remember…
Sunnaze over 12 years ago
Philistine, huh?
A_NY_Outlaw over 12 years ago
Wow. Can’t imagine if Pig actually landed on one of the ‘railroads’.
killacowinWA over 12 years ago
@GatoCat, Sunazze, hawgowar, and backwards Mormon comixavier—come on guys, can’t we all play nice? This doesn’t seem like the kind to generate arguement. It doesn’t mention religion or politics anywhere!
Tân Coul over 12 years ago
Just on a point of fact, that’s not cheating – the rules state that rent must be claimed by the landlord before the next player rolls the dice, there’s no obligation to offer payment unprompted…
Sirzanne over 12 years ago
How typical for an MCP to blame any opposition to gender-based prejudice and generalisation on female hormones! You don’t even know what gender Sunnaze is! There are plenty of males that find gender-based prejudice offensive too!
Whilst we’re at it… there are others here that find that kind of prejudice unacceptable, but I don’t see you patronising them with your ‘Lighten up’ instruction. Got your antenna tuned in only to those who don’t comment very often?
Zebrails over 12 years ago
sheesh… it’s a comic strip, not “To Tell The Truth”
Just remember this, in support for those people who live in Reading, PA, that city’s name is pronounced “Redding” and not “reading.”The Reading Railroad was created by the Pennsylvania Railroad.
Sirzanne over 12 years ago
It isn’t possible for me to have PMS… so are you a natural ******** or do you practice at it?
If you’re not a male, then you are the first female I’ve ever heard dismissing valid arguments with the nonsense PMS excuse… females can also be misogynists… in which case, is self-hatred difficult for you…?
Alms4Thorby over 12 years ago
Good thing it wasn’t Boardwalk.
dvoyack over 12 years ago
When did Pig and Pigita get back together? I thought they broke up? Looks like they’re going to do it again.

Marvin Gardens is my family’s favorite square! We all fight to get there first and offer huge amounts of money to buy it off of each other.
ZeebraNeighbor over 5 years ago
Technically, that isn’t cheating. If the player owed rent doesn’t ask for that rent before the player after that player goes, then they forfeit that rent money.
Pig {From P.B.S} almost 2 years ago
Ouch
