Garfield without Garfield
Hmmm...any psych majors our there want to take a look at this?
Garfield Minus Garfield is a site dedicated to removing Garfield from the Garfield comic strips in order to reveal the existential angst of a certain young Mr. Jon Arbuckle. It 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.
Buy the book! At Barnes & Noble or Amazon.com

And I didn't think Garfield could be any more boring or inane. Guess I was wrong.

Interesting. This may need further reflection. I have bookmarked this and will go back to it. Poor Jon, tortured soul. 
I liked Garfield as a kid, until I realized the error of my ways and found Calvin and Hobbes.

I subscribe to a daily comics feed and get Calvin and Hobbes, along with Fox Trot Classics, Bloom County and The Academia Waltz. Makes mornings so much better!

First of all, please share the link.
Secondly, have you ever read/seen the "alternate" ending to Calvin and Hobbes where he goes on dex (I can't remember if they named riddilin or addy but whatever, it's all dex) and Hobbes stops being real? Absolutely heart-breaking but entirely accurate.

I call foul...don't even post that crap. Blasphemer! Hobbes was real....and I'm still convinced the bastards at Pixar stole my idea for Toy Story. When I was a kid, my mom always told me my toys came alive when I wasn't in the room, so I'd try and sneak up on them.
To this day I still have a problem putting stuffed animals in a plastic bag.
I know...I'm nuts.
Back to existential Jon Arbuckle.

I've got a subscription and it's worth every dime to get my comics in my daily email. I think they also have a freebie membership but don't think it includes the archives. I'm also hooked on On A Claire Day, The Norm, The Meaning of Lila, Domestic Abuse, and Watch Your Head. http://www.gocomics.com/

Yes, and it's heart-breaking, tear-inducing, makes you ache for hours after reading it accurate.

lol @ the idea. The person running the site needs to put that energy into finishing the diss that I know is languishing in a corner somewhere.
Calvin and Hobbes is great.

I love how snl makes fun of Cathy on weekend update. I was never a fan of Garfield. In fact, it's a personal rule to never allow Garfield posters in my classroom.
