Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for December 08, 2015

PUN!

She can’t resist his quarter-pounder.

Who ain’t lovin’ it? Stephan, that’s who!

Wait until she starts looking for a little Jack in the Box action…

But the King said she could have it her way…

You’d think she would at least have gone for the Burger King!

Nothing but arfs for a basket case…

Poor little Cartoon-Boy, bereft of home, while Staci chases around with the lowest riff-raff of all, commercial clowns!Yeah, Cartoon-Steph needs a hug. And maybe his own Happy Meal, too….

She deserves a break today.

I think she is standing on Ronald’s shoes

Ronald should be one Rich Clown by now…………..

As long as it is not a happy ending meal at the ol’ in-’n-out.

And we’re still supposed to believe all is well at home?

It takes two hands to handle a whopper.

Not a joke. A coworker one day was very, very upset and he confided in me. His wife had left him for a clown. This guy was literally a clown working for Dr. Patch Adams. I think I burst my spleen trying to suppress laughter as he told me this story.

Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right,Here I am, stuck in the middle with you

She shouldn’t judge a man by the size of his shoes.

One of my favorite things about this strip is that Stephan lives in a basket on his estranged wife’s porch. That is just so funny!

“Send in the clowns……”

pastis now we know why you are on the porch and in a basket – all you had to do was buy a lousy happy meal for the missus once in a while and you couldn’t even do that. talk about a basket case!!!!!!!! and it would seem that the clown won’t have ANY trouble filling your shoes either. wow it looks like clown therapy is right next to you.

Ronald turned out to be too tame for her.She’s setting her sights on Ko-Ko the Clown.

a woman who’s not afraid of clowns can take on the world. cartoon boy’s too neurotic for her, i guess

At least she didn’t go to Five Guys.

Listen, better a series of clowns than a single mime.

So she’s dating Republican presidential candidates?

I prefer KFC myself.

xxx

She goes to Ronald for a ‘Happy Meal’? Is Ronald doin’ the eatin’ ???

They danced too: " Send in the clowns".

Surprised the comic censor didn’t show up for that last line

And we won’t even go to the Oscar Meyer songs……But darn don’t I want to!

Well, given that his IRL wife doesn’t read the strip and was surprised when people started assuming that they were having marital problems because cartoon boy was kicked out by cartoon wife, I doubt that she is bothered by it at all.

Who were the earlier clowns? Bozo? Krusty?

Supersize Me!

Question: My son and I were disagreeing on this. Is S. Pastis really divorced from his wife in real life?A. Herzog

We going to see the Hamburgler steal Pig soon?

clowns do have big shoes……

me as well
