Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for July 27, 2013

why no comments here? payday friday, or what?

Well, I agree with Rat’s point…but that is going a bit extreme.

I doesn’t matter how smart the phones are if they’re still being used by stupid people.

Just tell Rat that he can do transactions with his bookie much faster with a smart phone.

My smart phone is brilliant! But as a phone it’s not so good. My old flip phone sounded much better!

lol, my landline has the best call quality of all.

Rat and Pig and I. Here we stand (with our tincan telephony).

For 10+ years of owning a mobile phone, never had issue with it freezing – then buy a smart phone!

Yes we can can.

Now I know why they say Pig has a tin ear.

Hey, empty Progresso cans still work.

Reminds me of the old lady who called and complained that she didn’t receive the Sunday paper. When told it was Saturday, she said “That’s why no one was at church.”

Oh lord, I actually agree with Rat on something…hold me, I’m scared…

Exactly. Hangovers from going out after payday Friday…

For Pig and Rat, maybe pork-&-beans cans would be appropriate.

My phone is smarter than I am. I am convinced that sometimes it gets bored and messes with me just for fun.

Ditch the soup cans.. Use Mother’s Oats cardboard containers. Wider bandwidth.

ok. I installed Win7, i’d just replaced IE with firefox, and this was they only site that didn’t have any friday comment stream so i thot i’d borked it, i’m more used to Linux. my bad.

My phone isn’t as primitive as a tin can, but it IS Alexander Graham Bell’s second attempt……….

I agree with Rat on this one… I don’t want and never will want a Smartphone.

Good to have a cellphone when traveling. The rest of the time I’ll stick with the landline (also updates my TiVo connections and serves as a FAX, when I need to deal with papers that they don’t accept by email).

Goat? Is that you? I though goat was supposed to be the responsible one.

Rat an Pig are several generations away from the earliest cell phones.

Best one in a while. :)

“Because it’s older and slower and less efficient”, says the goat who still writes letters.

And rat calls goat old.

I would think the roles would be reversed.

You may be asking yourself, how does that work, well theirsa thing called vibrations.
