HAHAHA. Look at Jim's sly onanist face in the last part. LOL. I've blogged about this previously where the annoying cat is removed from the comic strip which results, in my opinion, in something that is more hysterical and surreal than its original irritating and stale iteration.

Garfield
I never quite found Garfield all that funny or amusing. Even as a seven year old learning to speak English I found it very uncouth and provincial in some way. At least Peanuts, which I never enjoyed too much, had some pace or ambience. Stripped of that obnoxious cat I find Garfield pretty humorous. Garfield sans Garfield becomes almost a visual koan or a comic rorschach test that provides enlightenment of some sort, or as the website states: "Let’s laugh and learn with him on a journey deep into the tortured mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against lonliness and methamphetamine addiction in a quiet American suburb." Gawd, that is a genius observation: He was totally bugged out on meth...
