Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for November 23, 2018

Lazy people don’t need motivation.

Isn’t motivating laziness an oxymoron?

Garfield as well as Andy Capp could use a poster like that.

Hey, it takes WORK to avoid work.

They’ll be huge sellers, though more as joke posters. I have seen posters in this vein. Though not with this particular wording.

If at first you don’t succeed, just forget it. It probably wasn’t worth doing anyway.

If you hang in there some one will steal your pants.

The grass always looks greener on the other side of the door.

“If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There’s no point in being a damn fool about it.” – frequently attributed to W. C. Fields

Right…. when the going gets tough, the tough get going….

But it doesn’t say which direction they’re going.

Running away is “going.”

Why ask for trouble?

I never understood the expression when I was a kid. I always wondered if they were so tough why were they leaving?

But there’s always tomorrow to get er done ……..

They might not even bother to read those, Pig.

Don’t hang in there baby.

Pig nails it again. He’s on a roll.

Hmm, with sesame seeds, that could be pretty good.

I remember the Demotivators.

It’s tough to be lazy.

“When in trouble or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout!” You know, like the White House.

And, most importantly, work harder, not smarter!

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Plus, you only live once, and there is no rest for the weary. Money can’t buy you happiness, the best things in life are free, money is the root of all evil and you can’t take it with you when you’re gone. Anyhow, a day’s work is never done, so why bother? So I will eat, drink and be merry, get it while it’s hot, make hay while the sun shines, and win some lose some, knowing you can’t always get what you want, and you can’t win ’em all… and will go on hoping that in the pool I least think, there will be a fish. Luckily there are plenty of fish in the sea.

Given what today is: “When the going gets tough, the tough go shopping.”

Excellent, Pig

When the going gets tough, the smart get lost.

You’ve only got one body and you’ve already ruined it.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups. I don’t mean this as a political statement, but I know some of those large groups will try and make it one.

I didn’t notice that Pig is left-hoofed…

There should be a really big market for those, Pig!
