garfield - garfield = LOL 4 me


Maybe I'm a bit late on the bandwagon here, but that's okay, just more catching up to do. I was never a big fan of the original Garfield comics, however, lately I can't get enough of "Garfield Minus Garfield", a comic strip where Garfield the cat has been erased from the original strip, leaving the viewer only with Jon, mostly talking to himself as if he's gone completely mad. It's a whole new bizarre twist on the original. I'm not sure who is responsible for this or what the copyright issues are here, but whatever the case, it makes for some brilliant, absurdist humor. Honestly, I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard. Thank you, whoever you are.

You bet Bob. I don't think it's an exaggeration calling it genius. Whoever thought this up, I want to shake their hand!

Amazing how much better the strip is that way, isn't it?

LOL! That is pretty funny! BTW, I always thought Garfield was very unfunny. This definitely hits me at adifferent level of humor. Like a guy with big eyes talking to himself....heehee...sick in a way.
