JON ARBUCKLE'S EXISTENTIAL HELL

Thanks to Mercer Union Hall for the link to the utterly fantastic Garfield Minus Garfield, where everyday a "classic" Garfield strip is posted with Garfield taken out of the equation. The innocuous banter between Jon and his sarcastic cat is suddenly transformed into the hollow and pointless musings of a lonely slacker living an utterly pointless existence.

Personally I am looking forward to the strange and impulsive antics of Itchy sans Scratchy.

Those strips only make me hate that "comic" more. If I ever meet Jim Davis I'm going to beat him up.

Jon is talking about lasagna for no good reason.

Dr. Monkey - Lesser evils have inspired violence before, so I understand your position

Dean - poor Jon, at least when he had a cat there was some thin attempt at the illusion of normalcy.

Oh well, postmodernism is what postmodernism does.

The idea for this was sheer genius.
