Garfield Minus Garfield


Justin is suddenly interested in Garfield and has been bringing Garfield books home from the library. (NOTE TO MOM - DO NOT THROW OUT OLD GARFIELD BOOKS.) It has reminded me of just how much I despise that wretched, self-centered little orange fur ball.

I much prefer Garfield Minus Garfield (http://garfieldminusgarfield.net/) where they remove Garfield from the strips, revealing "the existential angst of a certain young Mr. Jon Arbuckle". Garfield Minus Garfield "is a journey deep into the mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness and depression in a quiet American suburb".

Much better.

  1. The guys are total Garfield freaks, especially Ben. Even in French they love him. I think it started when Ben was in Grade 2.
