It has been a while but here is a classic Pearls Before Swine misdirection [one of my favourite forms of comedic] to get you smiling:

Pearls before Skeletons

And a bonus one depicting Pearls creator Stephan Pastis working SO HARD to get to his intended punclusion:

Gotta love the Pearls… and if you do…

Pearls before Weird Diets

Well, actually this is a two for one offer. The first one is another spot on Stepha Pastis moment of how many of us think of diets or our personal ‘trying to eat good’ plans:

Pearls before Diet

And the second one, you probably have to be a Pearls before Swine to fully appreciate, but if you are it is a classic look at just how plan bizarre Stephan can be [quite possibly when he has not had his morning coffee]

Stephan Pastis is back and this time he is skewering the U.S. Supreme Court, or maybe just politics or big business in general:

Once again, the punmeister Stephan Pastis of Pearls before Swine fame is giving it his best and poor innocent Pig is taking one in the head:

You know when you’re sitting innocently in church and the bag/plate comes along for the offering and you feel guilty, but probably not because of this:

If you are a big Pearls Before Swine fan like me [i really am – i met him once and introduced him to my most famous of stuffed dolphins, No_bob], then you will know how much he likes to

on occasion mess with the newspaper editors, other cartoonists and people in general really.

But i think he has a hard spot [like a soft spot, but harder and with more prickly edges] for the censorship board and often tries to sneak naughty words, sayings and innuendos in that just about make it through. And then parody the fact that he has done hat in a brilliant stroke of misdirected genius to make them somehow think they have won, while he has once again made us think of naughty words, sayings and innuendos. Well played, Steph!
