Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for December 31, 2016

Less than 24 hours before this horrible year is over and even a worse year starts.

Here’s an idea, Paris — talk some women into coming over and watching the ball drop on TV with you. Even if nothing happens with them later, you’ll still have had a better time than Rat had.

FYI, leftwingpatriot, most GOP politicians and officials, conservatives, and especially Americans never wanted Trump, nor did they want Hillary, if that’s what you mean.

Funny glasses? We’re going to need beer goggles.

I think I’m going to save all these left-leaning comments and bring them out in about 2 years and see who gets the last laugh…

.

Nah- probably won’t work, ’cuz Trump haters will still criticize him no matter what he does.

I’m with goat! Gonna have myself a mild and lazy time, woo hoo!

Lucky goat =(

All you have to do is just say….. Happy New Year !

Like I said the other day, some folks simply can’t let a strip just be funny and innocuous…

Just let me grab my Kindle, Goat, and I’ll join you.

… wait … that sounds kinda kinky, doesn’t it?

I think I’ll call it an early night tonight.

Brilliantly put!

President-elect Trump has already saved several thousand jobs! That would make it a great year for those folks.

Classic. I will use this to keep my Christmas bah humbug going. The holidays cannot end soon enough.

Goat’s got it right. I’m gonna go pick out my book now.

MIDNIGHT DOES CHANGE EVERYTHING!!!

Those glasses are far from funny, they’re downright ridiculous. You couldn’t pay me to wear those stupid things.

Pushing boundaries is a kid thing. You want to stay up and see the new year just because one moment it’s 2016, and the next moment it’s 2017. As an adult, I’m allowed to stay up until midnight, but all I want to—zzzzzzzzzzzz.

I like to watch the inside of my eye lids at midnight on New Years Eve. Try it! It’s habit forming.

@Gorbag42 If you can’t spell it,(SERF) don’t comment on it.

Just got back from a family meal at a restaurant. As I was leaving, in came a guy with CP in a motorized wheelchair. So you people tell me ALL ABOUT how horrible 2016 was for you. Don’t leave out a single thrilling detail.

What Goat said in the first panel is probably what I’ll be doing.

And I couldn’t be happier.

xxx

amen to the funny glasses part. amen.

What a humorless bunch of purported readers of PBS!

I could almost agree with Goat, but I wiil stay heme, stay up, watch fireworks out my living room window, and probably have the TV on, tuned to some inane NYE show from downtown….

I think I was in my teens when it hit me that January 1st was likely to look the same as December 31st. I fail to see any reason to make a big deal about what is essentially a calendar change. January 1st is an arbitrary date to start a year since there is no change. I vote for April 1st!

Those stupid glasses only made and sense from 2000-2009 with the zeros for eyes. Maybe 2010 if you keep the 1 over the nose.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Wow, am I the first one to say that?

Goat has said a lot of sensible things but this one NEEDS TO BE WRITTEN IN STONE, mainly so that that stone can be used to hit my relatives over the head

What’s awesome is that my family lives in California, so we can watch the ball drop in Times Square and then go to bed at 9:00.
