    As the story goes, John Steinbeck was told by one of his professors that he would become an author when pigs fly,[…]

    The accurate phrase is “ad astra per ALAS porci,”[“to the stars on the wings of a pig.”] which means that Steinbeck in his snarky revenge was demonstrating far and wide that he was a bad student after all – and thanks to his famous but inaccurate imprint, countless people are running around with tattoos which actually say “to the stars through other pigs.”[“ad astra per alia porci”]

    Cute comic, but I’m starting to hate how people think that an insult is the same thing as an ad hominem. No. If I call you an idiot without attaching any propositions to that, it’s just an insult and not a logical fallacy.

    That “This farmer is evel” by the pig and the “sic” by the hen gives me a sensible chuckle

      Boost always renders gif as an animation whether it’s animated or not. Which client do you use?

  • If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
  • The comic can be in any language, but if it’s not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post’s ‘body’ field (note: you don’t need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
