The Garfield Thread - All about the Garfield

Enjoy the works of http://joshmillard.com/garkov/
It's a text generator that will either produce gibberish or something somehow funnier than the original strip.

The web archive of Garfield.com is pretty interesting. The site has been up since 1996, so it's nice to look through if you want a good dose of nostalgia.
https://web.archive.org/web/*/garfield.com

From 1996 to 1997 there was a lasagna cookbook section where people could submit gourmet recipes like this one:

Garfield never had Furry bait, unlike that no good Heathcliff!

I'll have you know there's plenty of folks on deviantart who jack it to Garfield.

“Garfield! I made you a nice lasagna! Come and eat as much as you want!”

When Garfield walked into the kitchen he was glad to see Jon was back to his normal self. He actually seemed happier than ever. Jon had been acting weird for the past three days ever since he walked in on Liz going down on Garfield with Odie mounting her from behind. Garfield had expected Jon to react in a funny and over the top way but that wasn’t what happened. Jon did nothing, he said nothing, he just turned around and walked away. He hadn’t said a single word since.

Since Garfield was just a cat he wasn’t able to truly understand what he had done to Jon. Jon’s life wasn’t going quite the way he had expected it to, in fact, his life had been nothing but a string of failures one after the next. His one reason for living, the last thread that he clung to, was his delusional belief that him and Liz would one day end up together and he’d finally know happiness. Garfield had destroyed that last shred of hope and Jon realized he had nothing left to live for. That’s why he decided to poison the lasagna, so that they could die together.

Garfield was relieved to see that Jon was finally in a good mood again. He’d been really worried about him. He’d been acting so strange the last few days and Garfield had no idea why. He had tried to cheer Jon up by sprinkling itching powder in his underwear and had even used his claws to shred up Jon’s favorite bedsheets but nothing worked. He didn’t get excited and scream “GARFIELD!!” like he usually did whenever Garfield expressed his affection the only way he knew how.

Garfield started scarfing down the lasagna. It was delicious as always but he detected an unusual sweetness that was different from Jon’s typical lasagna. It still tasted wonderful though. Garfield may have been a cat but he still understood how much Jon loved him and although he didn’t quite know how to express it, he loved Jon too. Jon was his world.

After they finished their dinner Jon’s demeanor changed. He seemed content, almost serene. He was muttering to himself a lot but that was normal, especially since Garfield had started pranking him by replacing his psych meds with tic-tacs.

“Garfield, I just want you to know that I forgive you.”
“Glad to hear it.” Garfield emoted with obvious sarcasm.

The truth was that Jon did forgive him. Not only did he forgive him, he was thankful. Walking in and seeing what he believed to be the love of his life getting gangbanged by his cat and dog put things in perspective. He saw for the first time the futility of living and realized that he’d be happier if he simply didn’t exist. No pain, so sadness, no emptiness. Just sweet nothingness.

As they sat at the table Garfield started getting nervous. He sensed something was wrong but couldn’t understand what. There was something about the way that Jon was staring at him that unsettled him. He thought about leaving the table but for some reason was afraid to. Jon’s muttering started to increase in both frequency and intensity.

“Jon, buddy, are you okay?” he emoted.

Jon slammed his fists on the table.

“It doesn’t make sense!” he screamed “It’s been two hours! We should both be dead by now!”
“Jon, what are you talking about?”
“I poisoned the lasagna, Garfield! We’re going to die together! Just me and you together for eternity!!!”
“Poison?”
“There’s a container on the counter marked with a P for poison! I added it to the lasagna so that we both finally find peace!”

Garfield may have just been a cat but even he realized it would be odd to have a container full of poison just sitting around on the kitchen counter.

“Jon, you dummy, the P on that container means powdered sugar, not poison!”
“Haha whoops!”

Jon and Garfield had a good laugh and everything went back to normal.
