Stephan Pastis is a cool guy!

So, I was spending some time on Scott’s blog, because that’s the kind of thing I do when I should be studying for an exam. By Scott, I mean Scott Adams, of course. He recommended checking out a comic called “Pearls Before Swine”. I took his advice, and I wasn't disappointed. Of course, as someone who churns out one of the best comics today, he's obviously going to have good taste in humour.

Here’s the strip that was featured on Scott’s blog.


Now, before I move on, I’ve got some business to attend to first.

Dear Stephan,

Hi. First of all, I want to tell you how much I love your comic Pearls Before Swine. I LOVE IT!

Okay, moving on. I’m sure Scott took your permission to have the strip up on his blog. And even if he didn’t, I’m sure you’re not going to mind that kind of recommendation. Since Scott and I aren’t exactly in the same league, I’m aware that there are a LOT of copyright issues I could get into MAJOR trouble with. But I’m hoping you won’t make a big deal of it. After all, even the title of this post knows that Stephan Pastis is a cool guy!

In my defense, I would like to say that if it hadn’t been for Scott, I would have never read your comic. So, if you’re looking to cause trouble, you might want to hold him responsible first. Plus, he’s so much richer than I am. I’m only a student who has nothing but a blog to her name. And I read your comics during my spare time. I’m also not majoring in Computer Science, so it’s not like I’m going to make a lot of money in the future either.

Keeping with the spirit of Christmas, I’m sure you wouldn’t mind a poor soul like me using your comic to spread a little joy around this season. Merry Christmas to you too, Stephan. You’re a cool guy!

Yours fan(w)ningly,
Ms. V

Anyway, if you liked the strip above, read on and check out 10 of my favourites. For having read only 30 of them, I think that's pretty awesome. Well, we all now know that Stephan Pastis is a cool guy!

What I like most about this strip are the characters. For one, they're all animals. And that's a plus. I love Garfield. And even in Dilbert, my favourite characters are Dogbert, Catbert, Ratbert, and now, Sourpuss! I think animals make great comics. Plus, the dialogue is simple, and the artwork is cute! I feel like I know a person that's exactly like every character in this comic. (Vibes, you listening?)











And since I always love saving the best for last...



Personally, for me, this one takes the cake!!!


And that's the end of this post. I guess there's nothing left to say rather than Stephan Pastis is a cool guy!
