Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for February 27, 2017
Transcript:
Pig: My buddy Emanuel is meeting us here today. He's a hygienist. Buy he's a bit sensitive right now because he just got fired for not gleaning teeth very well. Rat: I haven't been to a dentist since I got a great new electric toothbrush. Pig: It cleans teeth well? Rat: It cleans teeth way better than a manual. Emanuel: Nooooo Pig: He didn't mean it. Rat: Didn't mean what?

Yes, he did mean it, Pig. Don’t be such a pushover for the incompetent dental hygienist!

I don’t think electronic toothbrushes are all that great.

Very first Pearls comic I’ve seen that was purely stupid. Not funny, not witty.

I’m betting this was inspired by the Oral-B commercial. I thought of that joke the first time I saw it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O01I4Q3Ol1U
