If Garfield Were Just a Normal Cat . . .
Jon gets even sadder
LiveJournal user Lakini-Malich posted a now-deleted entry in February regarding a revelation he had concerning the Garfield comic strip:
An interesting thing…if you remove Garfield's thought balloons, it goes from an unfunny comic to a rather sad, poignant story about a lonely man who has wasted his life talking to his cat.
Of course, Jon was never meant to be hip, happening, or cool, but when you see him talking to a cat that isn't thinking back at him, you really start to understand how sad Jon really is.
A large number of examples (as in "pages and pages") of Thoughtless Garfield may be viewed on Truth and Beauty Bombs as well as the Something Awful forums.
