Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 10, 2012
Transcript:
Zebra: I can't believe it. I have a big date tonight and I've got this one ear sticking up. Rat: Cover it up with something. Zebra: Like what? I don't want to wear something that's gonna make me feel even more awkward. Rat: I have something. And it won't make you feel awkward. Zebra: I feel awkward. Rat: Hey... hope you went to the bathroom first.

Wonder how much Rat is charging him for the use of the armor?
Gluteus Maximus over 12 years ago
Put the bow tie on the armor. You’ll still feel akward, but at least you’ll be more formal…

Zebra has a big date, but at least he is packing protection.

Dude, use a curling iron…or a hair straightener. Wrap that old ear in a hand towel and go for it.

I hate to imagine what Zeeba Neighba will look like when he finally sheds that tin can. Considering how compressed his nose/snout must be, not mention the ear and assorted other body parts, he may come out looking like The Elephant Man….

Amazing, that armor grew since Rat wore it. Zebra’s taller than Rat and it fit’s him so well when befor it was Rat’s size.

@F6F5Hellcat -It’s Lycra® elastic armor. It stretches with you.

How cruel….now the Crocs have to figure out how to use a can opener. Doesn’t bode well for Bob..
(They’ll get really angry that there’s no pop top like a beer can)

At least his ear is no longer sticking up.

sooooo did you starch your ear while you slept? or do you just roll a lot?
GoodQuestion Premium Member over 12 years ago
Zeeba take note: Once a King, always a King; But once a knight is enough . . . ☻
Sherlock Watson over 12 years ago
Zeeb, just explain to your date that one of your body parts is sticking straight up and the armor is what it takes to hold it down. Not only will she be understanding, she’ll be enthusiastic!

How did Zebra’s head fit in that armor?
Number Three over 12 years ago
Awwwwww, Zebra looks really cute and handsome.
It’s even more cute when his ear is like that.

I hope Rat hasn’t been doing his business in there.
wiselad over 12 years ago
does this mean that croc will think Zebra is an iron croc, and they will put their butts together AGAIN?
Popeyesforearm over 12 years ago
that should steel his confidence. I usually chug a 6-pack.
gordrogb Premium Member over 12 years ago
I like his outfit – very ironic.

“Mmmmmmmmm, canned zebra!!”
BandgeekJones over 12 years ago
Wear a bow-tie with the suit, and you’ll be set Zebra!
