What would happen if, say, Jon returned from a date and <i>didn't</i> report to his cat? Would Garfield assume -- possibly even correctly -- that something happened that was so bad that Jon doesn't want to talk about it? Maybe it's happened already; it's been years since I read <i>Garfield</i> on a daily basis.Nyperoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13546145376550215267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25616076.post-26817784359555164822009-05-30T17:27:46.462-07:002009-05-30T17:27:46.462-07:00What's up with Jon wearing the green jacket and re...What's up with Jon wearing the green jacket and red bow tie with yellow polka dots? <br /><br />Is Jon Arbuckle blind?

Maybe the younger, brownnosing writers who have obviously taken over "Garfield" have included some ageist undertones to appeal to a pop culture critic such as yourself. Then again, maybe I never expected a paragraph about Jon's problems to end with "This is why Kurt Cobain shot himself."<BR/><BR/>For the record, I find you funny.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25616076.post-1159908513625286172006-10-03T13:48:00.000-07:002006-10-03T13:48:00.000-07:00What a quandry.

B: She has a horrible sense of humor, Jon should know.<BR/><BR/>If B is correct, who cares if no one else thinks your funny, as long as the person you love does? Of course Jon doesn't have enough social experience to realize that nugget of life. People who enjoy the 3 Stooges don't really care if others think it's unfunny low brow crap, they seek out the people who enjoy watching bald men get poked in the eyes.<BR/><BR/>(then, those that dislike the stooges are unfunny pricks and I hate them)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
