Post by: Jepser on 10 Jul 2008, 17:07: You are referring to the 'bluh fuh hurble gnuh' incident, I presume?

Anyway, however awesome the idea of Jon Arbuckle running a gay night club is, it seems unlikely.

Post by: jeph on 10 Jul 2008, 17:54: Unlike Jon, Marten has gotten laid in the past twenty years.

Post by: snoppyjanoppy on 10 Jul 2008, 18:28: actually, recently in the plotline*** of garfield jon has been dating that liz veterinarian for the last few months. she kinda looks like a slut, and probably has enough low self-esteem to put herself in the situation to have intercourse with a thirty year old virgin.

that brings up another fun topic: is jon really a virgin? has he had any meaningful relationships? it's kind of sad how a comic that's been around for 30 years there has been no character development besides counting down the days until garfields birthday. (also, garfield is now 218 in cat years. holy shit, he must possess the holy grail.)

***i'm not exactly sure if i'd call it a plotline if it's been stretched to over a year with little to none references being made to the relationship besides in a couple sunday strips.

man removing Garfield makes Jon seem like the annoying whiny guy who you just wanna give a shot in the gut to.

Than again Garfield is a CAT so I think removing Garfield shows us a hopeless whiny guy and leaving Garfield in shows us a hopeless whiny guy who's only friend is a cat. Sad :(

I like the "silent Garfield" ones better than "no Garfield". Too many of the "no Garfield" looks like "hurr hurr, random = comedy GOLD".

Post by: evernew on 14 Jul 2008, 08:50: Jon would have had to get his bone on somehow to father Marten.
I refute the theory!
