Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for November 22, 2011
Transcript:
Rat: Hey, Goat, in an effort to improve the readership of your blog, I've been studying the Google analytics for it. Goat: What are those? Rat: A comprehensive series of stats about page views, unique visitors and how viewers find your blog. Anyways, from all that, I think I've ascertained the problem. You're boring. I sense you dispute the data.

Nah, rat, your nose just makes a nice spindle…

This one again? As great as Pearls is, it gets a bit dull to hear the same joke repeated so many times. Although the use of Rat’s nose in the lat panel is nice and original, though a mild punishment for such a high insult.

Goat’s blog needs a few banjo casualities in it to become interesting!

Spindle this, Rat! What does Google Analytics tell you about that?

I always did think all Rat’s appendages looked a bit spindly.
And his nose is what’s boring. Look — it bored right through those papers.

For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do—living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry. They think it strange that you do not plunge with them into the same flood of dissipation, and they heap abuse on you. 1 Peter 4:3-4

Impressive vocabulary, Rat. I didn’t think you had that much actual intelligence – thought you were just a stuffed shirt.

I work for a web company and have recommended to my boss that we simply send all of our clients this, instead of wasting time actually looking at their sites and coming up with the same conclusion all over again.

Excellent observation KillacowninWA.

too bad Google Analytics doesn’t really tell you that! I guess that could be deciphered in the lack of returning visitors.
