Looks like a meatball in traction. ga790111 -- I was feeling pretty punk about having to wear a sweater... - Until I saw Odie's new outfit. - ga790112 -- Uh-oh, it's starting to rain. - I'd better let Garfield in before he gets his new sweater wet. - Too late. ga790113 -- snicker snicker - HARF! HARF! HARF! - ga790114 -- When you own a cat, its hairs get everywhere. - Every time I eat, I find a cat hair in my food.

I forgot to put it in there. ga790115 -- - Garfield, you shouldn't chase the mailman like that. - Now what would you do with him if you actually caught him? I'd eat him. ga790116 -- Garfield, you know cats can't drink... - SLURP! ...coffee. - Fill 'er up!

That would be nice. ga790124 -- We've gotta stop watching the all-night movies on television, Garfield. - But, of course, last night was an exception. - Who would possibly turn off the Ethen Barrymore film festival? ga790125 -- BANG! BANG! EEEK! - SMACK! - Okay, okay. I'll change the channel. I don't like violence. ga790126 -- I hate television. - There are too many commercials, reruns and game shows. - The eight hours I watched yesterday was terrible. ga790127 -- Television is only so much mindless drivel... - Glossy adventures, sex and violence. - Ain't it great? ga790128 -- YAWN! - smack smack smack - Oh my. - Just look at that gorgeous sunrise! - Mother nature certainly uses every color on her vast palette to paint a dawn. Truly blessed are we, the early risers. - Have you ever seen a more beautiful sunset, ga790128 -- Garfield? - Hmmm...I must have overslept. ga790129 -- Garfield, you are disgustingly, slovenly, sloppy fat. - Poor Jon. - He obviously has disgustingly, slovenly, sloppy fat confused with "big-boned". ga790130 -- Brenda, meet Garfield. Hi, Garfield. - Is Garfield a pig? He's a cat. - Oh, that REALLY hurts. ga790131 -- ahhh - CRASH! - Face it, Garfield. Windowsills just aren't built for us queen-sized felines. ga790201 -- If you take one bite of my pie, Garfield, I'll smack your fat little paws. - - If I can't have it, neither can he. ga790202 -- I'll bet you can't wait to see what kind of cat food you're having for dinner. I'll bet I can. - Here it comes... You can cut the tension with a knife. - LIVER! Oh, hooray, hop about, clap paws, squeal with glee. ga790203 -- Now I wouldn't say you're fat, Garfield... - But when you sit around the sofa, you SIT AROUND the sofa. - KICK! Heads, he lives.

You and what army? - - - Okay...I give up. You can go. - SPLOOSH - ga790212 -- I hate cold floors in the morning. - Nobody likes cold floors. - But we cats have to put twice as many feet on them. ga790213 -- Pets are great to have on cold nights. - As long as you don't mind... - The crowded conditions. ga790214 -- BARK! YIP! ROWR! FFFT! - GARFIELD! ODIE! Why don't you boys go outside to fight. - While I lie here and quietly bleed to death. ga790215 -- * * * - GARFIELD!

STOP! - It's below freezing out there. ga790219 -- You say you want me to eat this hamburger, Pooky? - And this chicken? And this lasagna? - You gotta go a long way to find a teddy bear as good as old Pooky here. ga790220 -- SMACK! - HEY YOU! Come back here and fight like a teddy bear! - What am I saying? ga790221 -- Be honest, Pooky. Do you think I'm getting a little pudgy around the middle? - - Not a lot of personality, but he certainly knows when to keep his mouth shut. ga790222 -- - - A dancing bear? Next time, I get to lead. ga790223 -- Let's go for a walk, little fella. - SMACK! - Well, I'll be. Pooky doesn't like dogs either. ga790224 -- Okay, who knocked my fern off the windowsill?! - - His lying to me isn't half so upsetting as the credit he's giving my intelligence. ga790225 -- kaboing kaboing kaboing - purrr - Garfield - bat bat - ROWR! FFFT! - - scratch! scratch! scratch! - That should hold you cat fans for a while. ga790226 -- Stand aside, cat. I know karate! - - And I know fast and furious. ga790227 -- - - Some days I'm just not in the mood to be adored. ga790228 -- Woould puppy tat wike a bowl of milk? - Would funny wooking man wike a milk bath? - Never be condescending to a cat. ga790301 -- - GARFIELD! Did you eat my chicken? - No, of course not. If you had, there would be some bones left. ga790302 -- Be careful around this clock, Garfield. It's an old family heirloom. - CRASH! - One small push for a cat, one giant leap for good taste. ga790303 -- Where were you, Garfield? I called you an hour ago for dinner.

If everyone smiled at even people they didn't ga790318 -- know. - If nobody had to steal. I people laughed more. If everyone fed their cats all the lasagna they could eat. If we all took more pride in our homes and our neighborhoods. - If we respected our senior citizens more. If there were no ga790318 -- violence in movies and television. If everyone could read and write. If families talked more. - If friends hugged more. If everyone stopped at least once a weak to stroke a cat.

He's kind of muddy, he's flat on the road.

Puddle City. ga810129 -- How long will I have to stay here in the pound? Till your owner comes to pick you up. - What if he doesn't come? Then it's curtains for you. - Great! I love to sharpen my claws on curtains. How do I break this to him? ga810130 -- We gotta bust out of this pound. Got any ideas? Why don't we use Fluffy as a battering ram? - FLUFFY! BE A BATTERING RAM! Yah. - CRASH! ga810131 -- Thanks for helping me escape from the pound, Guido. No sweat. - It's nice to finally be out of trouble. What a relief it is to be returning to the safety and comfort of home. - Whatever that is... ga810201 -- - - Why, hello there. I'm lost. - Aren't you cute! Can you give me directions! - Run along now, Kitty. - - - What did I do? ga810202 -- So what if I'm lost. Big deal. I can handle it. - Cats are adventurous. Cats are independent. Cats are strong... - I WANT MY TEDDY BEAR! ga810203 -- It should be no problem finding my way home.

No, It's youkky. - How would you like to go to bed without dinner? - Somehow, that psychology doesn't seem to work on Garfield. ga810226 -- Why do people love teddy bears? - It's for their don'ts... - They don't eat your food. They don't dance with your date and they don't trump your ace lead. ga810227 -- - I wonder what grandiose dream Garfield is having right now. - ga810228 -- Have you ever seen such a sad movie in all your life, Garfield? - Maybe I'm too hardened. Maybe I'm too cynical... - But I wasn't that moved by "Flipper Gets The Ick". ga810301 -- - I declare this chair the sole property of Garfield The Cat. - Move it, Garfield. That's my chair.

That'll make'm feel bad. - GARFIELD! GET IN HERE! - Everyone needs a good bout with self-pity now and then. ga810309 -- I'm putting you into training, Garfield. - CATCH THE MOUSE! KILL THE MOUSE! CHASE IT! - I'm disappointed in you. You're just another dumb animal. If I wait for the forward thrust to diminish, I should be able to retrieve it at my leisure. ga810310 -- Garfield, where's your windup mousie? - You didn't...? No of course you didn't. - ptooey ga810311 -- GET THAT MOUSE, GARFIELD! What mouse? Squeak - I KNOW IT'S THERE. I HEAR IT SQUEAK, NOW DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! Squeak - koink koink koink ga810312 -- CATCH THAT MOUSE, GARFIELD! - Now what do I do with it? Eat it! - Who knows where that mouse has been? ga810313 -- Why do people expect us cats to eat mice? - This mouse could be somebody's mother. This mouse could be a deacon in its little mouse church. - And some of the fuzzy sucker's bones might get caught in my throat. ga810314 -- KILL THE MOUSE, GARFIELD! - NO! I RESPECT MY WARMBLOODED BROTHERS AND SISTERS MORE THAN THAT! - I'll reserve my abuse for the lower life forms. ga810315 -- - Cats can stare anything down. - - I win. - - I win again. - Uh oh. - This one's going to be tough. ga810316 -- Oh Marcia.

SLAM - Especially when he forgets to take me along. ga810318 -- Hellooo, doc. Remember me? Where's your cat? - Forget my cat. Can't we get started without him? Sure. - First a vitamin E shot to give your coat a keener sheen. I'll get my cat. ga810319 -- How a bout a date, my little kitten? - I don't date men who who use animal names out of context. - Rats. ga810320 -- Why don't you like me? - You're wishy-washy, crude, and a twerp. - I mean aside from that. ga810321 -- Your cat is extremely overweight, Mr. Arbuckle. It could lead to serious heart problems. Not to worry. - I don't think Garfield has a heart. - See?! ga810322 -- - I'm going to jog this morning. - Of course, it will be cold when I start. - But then I'll get hot and sweaty. - And my heart will pound, making me dizzy. - I'll get blisters on my feet. - Then I'll be stiff and sore for days. - Jogging ga810322 -- probably wouldn't be so bad. But the anticipation is killing me. ga810323 -- I wonder what today is? - BONK! - Monday. ga810324 -- There are two of us and only one donut, Garfield. Let's share it. - - Where's my share? Look closely.

It's only a little rain. - AAAAAAAAAAAAA ga810328 -- I love lasagna fresh from the oven: the tomato sauce, the meat, the melted cheese. - - GARFIELD! ga810329 -- I', going out, Garfield. The women will be hysterical over me. The outfit's hysterical. - What do you think about my attire? It could use some alteration. - Let's tuck that tie in and add some vents to the sleeves. - - A smart cat knows just ga810329 -- how far to go without crossing over the line. - Perhaps a more rakish tilt to the hat. - ga810330 -- Just remember, Garfield, when we get to the farm you are there to relax. - I know last time you wanted to be helpful... - But you do not grow chickens by planting chickens in the ground! It was an hones mistake. ga810331 -- Mothers equate love with food. When they feed you they're saying, "I love you". - Eat, eat, eat. - And I love you, too. ga810401 -- The light bulb's burned out. - Don't worry about me, I'll just sit here in the dark going blind. - I'll fix it. He's such a good boy. ga810402 -- When I was your age I was married and had a kid. Yeh, me! - - Good argument, son.

She's crazy about me. - Buenos dias, mon sweet. I knew you'd come back to me. - Of course you did, fatso. You're sitting on my rubber mouse. ga810408 -- Tell me, Arlene, how does it feel to have a huge, ugly, disgusting gap between your front teeth? - BAP! - Oh. ga810409 -- ROWR OOOO - Why do cats always caterwaul when they date? Would you rather come to my place and see my cat show trophy? - EROOO ga810410 -- How about us having a lasting relationship, Garfield? - I'm sorry, Arlene. I'm already hopelessly in love with somebody else. - Who? Me. ga810411 -- Thanks for the date, Arlene.

Right, Jon? ga810420 -- The moon is right. - The time is right. - Good evening, ladies and germs. A funny thing happened on the way here tonight... ga810421 -- A canary walks up to me the other day and he says, "I haven't had a bite in three days."

BONK! - When a cat presents you with a dead, smelly thing, it's an expression of love, you twit. ga810706 -- Here's a lesson in the natural order of things. - Cats use claws to climb up trees. - And fire departments to get down. ga810707 -- What does Garfield the cat do when he's stuck up a tree? - Why what any honorable cat would do, of course. - WAHHH! ga810708 -- I'm getting out of this tree. - BOING! - I didn't allow for my resilient nature. ga810709 -- Poor me..stuck up a tree. - Things could be worse, I guess. - ga810710 -- Why do I always get stuck up trees? - It must be the cat in me. - Right on. ga810711 -- Come here, cat.

Is that what you want? - YES! - Let me rephrase that... ga810715 -- Some people say I'm fat. - Big deal, I love to eat. - Waddling and sweating is kind of fun too. ga810716 -- - BASH! - Good morning, fatso. All I did was jump off the bed. ga810717 -- It isn't healthy for a cat to be as big as you are, Garfield. - Why, you could get heart disease, get fallen arches... - Get harpooned. Couldn't resist it could you. ga810718 -- - CRASH - Maybe I should go on diet. ga810719 -- Let me give you a driving session, Garfield. - When you're as good a driver as I am, you drive defensively. - You look both ways at an intersection. - Then you proceed with caution. - HONK! SCREEEE! - Darn you, Garfield. I'm such a kidder. ga810720 -- I think you're eating too much salt, Garfield.

OH NO! - I may have to resort to desperate emergency measures. - Like chasing mice. ga810722 -- I'm going to start you on your diet slowly, Garfield. - For the rest of the week you may have no desserts. Fine and dandy. - Helloooo, main course. ga810723 -- Hello, ice cream. Hello, hamburger. Hello, lasagna. - Get away from the refrigerator, Garfield. You're on a diet. - What were you doing?

How'd you guess? ga810801 -- Do you know what this country needs? More dog pounds. - Anti-dog mines around fire hydrants! Dog hunting season! Dog traps! - Relax, Garfield. You're going to burst something. Why, millions could be saved on carpet cleaning bills alone. ga810802 -- * - Garfield, lasagna! - - - I waxed the table today. When my bones knit, you are a dead man. ga810803 -- - - You know it's Monday when you find sharks circling in your water bowl. ga810804 -- I'm in the mood for a good fight, but I am personally opposed to senseless violence. - PUNT! - That's for not being a cat. ga810805 -- Hey look, Garfield. This is my impression of a bowling ball. - SHOOP! - That was my impression of a vacuum cleaner. ga810806 -- I feel like getting into a big fight today. - - Now I feel like holing up somewhere to whimper for a while. ga810807 -- What do you want to do tonight, Garfield? Do you want to go jogging? Go to a movie? Play miniature golf. - Or would you rather go eat? - Natch. ga810808 -- Do you take your cat everywhere? - Yes, we do everything together, my dear. - Except make passes at ugly waitresses. ga810809 -- Here it comes, folks. - Tah-dah! - - Lasagna anyone? I'll pass. Nope. I'm on a diet. I think I'll wait for dessert.

ROWR! - MROWR - BARK - You win. ga820920 -- - - ga820921 -- - splat! - A very short but neat rain shower. ga820922 -- - - ga820923 -- Pardon me, which is the way to Cincinnati? - Thanks. - I see by the ol' writing on the wall it's time to check myself into the funny farm. ga820924 -- - - ga820925 -- Look at all those tiny ants going to the tiny beach to do some swimming. - Uh-oh. A tiny minnow is cruising in to eat the swimmers. - Uh-oh. The minnow just got harpooned by an ant who bears a striking resemblance to Robert Shaw. ga820926 -- WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! - WHAM! WHAM! I don't like the sound of this. - Surprise, Garfield! What have we here? - We now have two houses. A big one and this little one. A regular Taj Mahal. - One of us is going to live in the big house, and one of ga820926 -- us is going to live in the little house. That's fine with me. - You may visit me in the big house on weekends. ga820927 -- OH NO! IT'S NOT THERE! - I'm not getting out of bed without it! - Not without my morning cup of coffee! ga820928 -- Good morning, Jon. - Well, helloooo there. Come to papa. - That's me, Jon Arbuckle, second fiddle to a coffee bean. ga820929 -- Garfield, you'll never find happiness at the bottom of a coffee cup. - I beg to differ. - Look, there's some right there in the corner. By golly, you're right. ga820930 -- Take it easy on that coffee, Garfield. - It might be too much for your tiny system. - Pardon me, boy, is that the chattanooga choo-choo Bingo. ga821001 -- I love you, coffee; you make me glow. - You make me smile. I love you so. - My nerves don't like you, but what do they know? ga821002 -- Now for a strong cup of coffee. - Now for a good night's sleep. - Now for a brisk bout with insomnia. ga821003 -- What's that rumbling? The ground is shaking! - Oh, no! It's THEM! - THERE'S NO WAY OUT! I'M TRAPPED LIKE A RAT! - ARRRGH! - ga821004 -- - ARRGH! - Very funny, Odie. Now get your face off the window. ga821005 -- - - ROWR ga821006 -- I got you a new friend, Garfield. He even talks. Oh, goody. - Will you play with me? Why, of course, little buddy. - Let's go play with Jon's power tools. ga821007 -- I wonder what that bag of sawdust has to say. - Feed me. Feed me. Feed me. Feed me. Feed me. - He does have a certain charm. ga821008 -- Imagine, the nerve of Jon giving me a dummy as companion. What kind of an intellectual dwarf does he think I am? - Practice of the Aristotelean mean would have a significant positive effect on the world institutional environment. - Oh, shut ga821008 -- up. ga821009 -- Your little friend here is certainly cute, Garfield. - stomp! stomp! stomp! - Little friend or not, there's something to be said for the diplomatic removal of competition. ga821010 -- What's this? - Here's an interesting article about the ancient practice of cannibalism. Lovely. - Can you imagine what life was like then? - Traveling salesmen were called "meals on wheels". - Having the boss over for dinner had an entirely ga821010 -- different meaning. - It says here certain tribal societies also ate cats. - I can hear a diner complaining, "oh, waiter, there's a flea collar in my soup". That's not funny. ga821011 -- Maybe I wouldn't hate mondays so much if I didn't have this calendar here to remind me. - - ga821012 -- That hamburger is mine, Garfield. It's mine. - Let's see if you want it after I stomp it, lick it and shed on it. - You win, Garfield. You can have it. I don't think I want it now. ga821013 -- POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! - Let me guess. You're going tree climbing, right? - How did you know? ga821014 -- Now to get out of this tree. - - Don't you dare! sniff sniff ga821015 -- I wish you understood my every word, Garfield. - I could tell you I love you. I understand how you feel. - I love me, too. ga821016 -- - I love it when you cuddle up to me, Garfield. - What a warm and wonderful gesture. My nose was wet. ga821017 -- - - SMACK! - HEY! - tickle tickle tickle - STOP IT, GARFIELD! YOU PLAY TOO ROUGH! - I'm sorry I yelled at you, Garfield. Cats have feelings too, you know. ga821018 -- I'm not leaving bed, I'm not moving a muscle. If I don't bother Monday, maybe Monday won't bother me. - Hello, I'm Nermal, the world's cutest kitten, here to visit for the week. - Well, maybe I will do just a teensy bit of sobbing. ga821019 -- The mirror is one of cat's best friends, Nermal. You can primp in it, play with it and admire yourself in it. - - I don't see what's so great about it. ga821020 -- Follow me, Nermal. This is how you climb a tree. - Now what do we do? What a silly question. - We sit here until the fire department comes. ga821021 -- lick - LICK - What happened to you? ga821022 -- How cute. Thank you, Nermal. - - Uh...thanks. You'd better appreciate it, sucker. Your flower garden gave its life for this bouquet. ga821023 -- Tell me, Garfield, are you threatened by the fact that I am much younger and cuter than you are? I'm bigger than that. - You can say that again! - See how they like your rapier wit on the moon. ga821024 -- Hello. - I wonder what kind of hat this is? - - What time's that there bus leaving for Topeka? - See you, mum. Billy Bob and me are gonna play in traffic. - Gee, I'd love to go to the cotillion but I gotta stay home and watch armwrestling on ga821024 -- TV. - That's it. This must be one of those stupid hats. ga821025 -- Get ready to go, Garfield. We are going to visit dad and mom on the farm. - Send my regrets. I really must stay home and pluck my nose hairs. - I guess I'm ready to go. ga821026 -- SPUT SPUT WEEEZE GURGLE SPUT - The car has stopped and it's getting dark. What should I do, Garfield? I con only think of one thing. - MAKE IT GO ga821027 -- We're stranded, Garfield. We'll have to find somewhere to spend the night. - What about that place? Cute. - A little paint, a few curtains, and it would be a regular love nest. ga821028 -- I guess we'll have to stay in this abandoned house tonight, Garfield. - Garfield R.I.P. 6-19-78 10-30-82 - I can't put my finger on it, but I have an uneasy feeling about this place. ga821029 -- This house is spooky, isn't it, Garfield? Kind of reminds me of the vet's office. - Uh-oh, footsteps! Quick! Into the closet! CLOMP CLOMP - What do you suppose it is? CLOMP CLOMP Let's hope it's the welcome wagon. ga821030 -- CLOMP CLOMP It's coming to get us, Garfield. It knows we're in the closet! -ARRGH! - DAD! You didn't show, so I came looking for you.

Boys can't be mommies. - Daddy! ga821104 -- What's that, daddy? It's lasagna. And don't call me daddy. - Here. Have a piece. Yuk! - NO SON OF MINE WOULD REFUSE LASAGNA! ga821105 -- Stop hanging around me, kid. Just remember, you're a tender young chicken and I'm a very hungry cat. - I guess I have that little giblet the what for. - EYOW! ga821106 -- For the last time, kid, I'm not your daddy. You're a chicken and I'm a cat. - Now go back to your mother. Goodbye, daddy. - ga821107 -- Let's job, Garfield. I'll sit this one out, thank you. - pppppp - RRRRRRRRR - BARK! BARK! BARK! SHOOP! - ROWF! FFT! - ARRRRRRRRGH! BARK MROW! Pack your bags, Reba.

Let's go for a ride, ga821112 -- Garfield. ga821113 -- GARFIELD'S LAW: Cats shed in direct proportion to their contrast with a person's suit. - - ga821114 -- - How about a shot of flea powder, Garfield? If you can hit a moving target. - SCREEEE - I guess it's safe to eat. - GOTCHA! - I guess I pulled a good one on Garfield. - Guess again, sucker. ga821115 -- I hate mondays. - And just why do I hate mondays? - Because mondays hate me. ga821116 -- There's one thing I hate worse than grapefruit. - - And that is hating grapefruit. ga821117 -- I hate mornings. - I hate the fuzzy feeling. I hate the cold floors. - I hate the bad breath. ga821118 -- I hate cute. - - I also hate people who try to ingratiate themselves. ga821119 -- chuking KONK! - I hate toasters. - chuking KRONK ga821120 -- I hate hating things. - Check that. - I love hating dogs.

I sleep to restore my energy. - I sleep to refresh my wits. - I sleep to escape. ga821124 -- - Z - Garfield! What happened? I had a nap attack at full throttle. ga821125 -- If I were to come back to this earth, I'd like to come back as a pillow. - I could lie in bed all day. - And people would put their heads in my lap and go to sleep. ga821126 -- UH-OH! HERE COMES THAT MEAN DOG! - Nobody would ever harm a sleeping cat? - Wrongo. ga821127 -- - Z Z - Z Z My feet fell asleep. ga821128 -- Z - Z dum dee dum dee dum - Yah tah tah tah, yah tah tah tah TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP - Garfield, I was sound asleep. You're breaking my heart, now feed me. - Anything else, sire? Yes, wash my blanket, change my kitty litter and retread my ga821128 -- scratching post. - I wonder if it's worth it. I'll ignore that remark. - I swear, sometimes I don't know why I keep him. ga821129 -- SNAP! SQUEAK! What's that? - Oh, no! Since I'm not a mouser, Jon set a mousetrap. Now it's killed a mouse! - If you did your job, I wouldn't be in this fix. ga821130 -- I'm sorry you got caught in that mousetrap, mouse. Oh, that's okay. I have a wife and eight kids. - What doest that have to do with anything? - This is the first peace and quiet I've had in years. ga821201 -- Have a piece of cheese, mouse. Maybe that will make you feel better. - - How am I supposed to swallow? Good point. ga821202 -- You're free to go, mouse. Thanks. - Just where have you been? I suppose you and your fat friend have been having fun while I've been working and slaving taking care of our children. You'd better get yourself home right now. - SNAP! ga821203 -- Now get out of here. - - SNAP! SQUEAK! ga821204 -- - Jon will be checking this trap soon. - My bunny slippers? They like to roam at night. ga821205 -- ALL RIGHT! - I love flowers! - I love to tiptoe through tulips. - Dive through daisies. - Romp through roses. - You cat broke 'em, you bought 'em, buddy. Put some pansies on the tab, too. ga821206 -- Don't knock those flowers of the windowsill, Garfield. - I put them there to give them some sun. - And some fresh air. ga821207 -- Windows are great. They offer a front row seat to life's passing parade. - THUD! - They are also good for a yuk or two. ga821208 -- I see you're bringing the mail in with your usual care. - This letter says, "do not fold, spindle or mutilate." - It didn't say anything about "maul". ga821209 -- - MY NEWSPAPER! YOU CHEWED UP MY NEWSPAPER! - It's things like this that make me wonder if you should bring in the paper at all. Precisely. poo ga821210 -- On chilly mornings, this is my favorite place in the whole house. - - Over the heat vent. ga821211 -- Garfield, did you eat fern? - WHY IS IT I GET BLAMED FOR EVERYTHING AROUND HERE? IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG, YOU JUST LAY It ON OL' GARFIELD! - I have no idea what you're talking about. ga821212 -- - You can have this hamburger if you can reach it, Garfield. - WHA!? - - - b-b-b-b-b-b-b - Jon will rue the day I got these rubber arms. ga821213 -- BOOM BOOM BOOM - boom boom boom - It's time you went on another diet, Garfield. ga821214 -- On this diet, Garfield, you may drink all the coffee you please. - gulp gulp gulp - This is some kind of weird diet. slosh slosh slosh slosh ga821215 -- I think I'll step off my diet just long enough to eat a couple dozen cookies. - Lettuce? - That cat has no sense of humor. ga821216 -- - - You know you're on a diet when even the dog food commercials look good. ga821217 -- You may go off your diet as soon as you loose some weight, Garfield. Why didn't you say so sooner? - BUZZ - Let's eat. ga821218 -- Heck with it. I'm going off my diet. - - Show me a dieter, and I'll show you a person who belittles himself. ga821219 -- - Good morning, Garfield. I'm so happy you can share this glorious morning with me. - Michelangelo would give up painting in a minute if he saw the canvas mother nature has rendered just for us today. - Chirp chirp Just listen to the symphony ga821219 -- of sound from nature's flute section. - And the perfect sights and sounds are perfumed with these lovely flowers. What do you think, Garfield? - - You really don't care, do you? Bingo. ga821220 -- Good morning, Garfield. Is there something you're trying to tell me? - - It's the Christmas season, you say. ga821221 -- Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme. - GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! - I'm getting into the Christmas spirit. ga821222 -- - - That's gotta be a world's record! The presents go there. Move it, move it, move it. ga821223 -- I hope this gift is mine. rattle rattle rattle - CRACK! tinkle tinkle tinkle - I hope it's Odie's. ga821224 -- It's only noon, Garfield. Are you going to bed already? The sooner you go to bed, the sooner it's Christmas morning. - - Good night, little fella. ga821225 -- Comics readers are very special people. You mean more to me than there is space here to express. - I love you all. - Have a happy holiday. I'll be funny again tomorrow, trust me. ga821226 -- Set the stage, light the lights. - Good evening, ladies and germs. - SPLAT - My car is so old, it is insured against fire, theft and India raids. BLUT - My girlfriend is so cross-eyed, she can sit on the front porch and count the chickens in ga821226 -- the backyard. CRASH - Take my dog...pleeeze. PLOP - It must have been one of your better nights. I was in rare form. ga821227 -- Well, I wonder what's going to happen to me today. - BLAT! - Monday moves in a mysterious way. ga821228 -- Go fetch the paper, Garfield. - Look closely, Jon. These are cat's paws, not slave's paws. - I'll ignore your small indiscretion this time, and share your life. Thank you...sir. ga821229 -- nibble nibble nibble - It's not to chew your nails, Garfield. Oh, that's okay. - I'm chewing on Odie's. ga821230 -- Z - I'm bored. I need to add some sparkle to my life. - Z ga821231 -- THERE'S A SPIDER! I HATE SPIDERS! - Ha ha. I'll just flick him away. - WHANG! - Jon?

What are you talking about? - I was scratching my back with your toothbrush. ga830105 -- Good morning, Odie. - Hey, get away from Jon's stamp collection! - Too late. ga830106 -- What should do tonight? - SPLUT - Good idea. I think I'll go sing on the fence. ga830107 -- OH, NO! FIRE ARROWS! THOCK - I'M A GONER! THOCK - A CAT ALWAYS GOES DOWN WITH HIS FENCE! ga830108 -- I can't believe that tacky pack of music haters burned my fence down. - The only thing to do is to get right back up there and start singing again. - But...somehow it just isn't the same. ga830109 -- Here he comes...tweedledee, the wonder dummy. - Hey, Odie, would you like to play ball? - - squeak - - tie tie - Hey, Garfield, where's Odie? He's tied up at the moment. dribble dribble dribble ga830110 -- SLAM - Hey, Garfield. I'm home. - You're certainly excited to see me. Believe me, inside I'm hopping up and down and shouting with glee. ga830111 -- So I say to this clerk, "Look, if the whole bunch of bananas is 54 cents, why can't I have one for 6 cents? - - Don't you want to hear how the story came out? Tell it to your plants. ga830112 -- - - Garfield, you seem to be preoccupied this week. Huh? ga830113 -- Garfield hasn't been listening to me lately, watch this. - Hey, Garfield, what say we go to the vet and get you declawed? - That would be fine. Case closed. ga830114 -- I hate it when Garfield ignores me. - DARN IT! PAY SOME ATTENTION TO ME! - Z I think I'm going to cry. ga830115 -- Jon, I know I've been ignoring you lately, but I want to say it's not because I don't care for you. - It's like my ears hear you, but my brain keeps straying off course. I've just been preoccupied. - Enough said. Let's get on with it. Huh? ga830116 -- ZOO - Do Not Feed The Animals I wonder what it would be like to be a wild animal. - First, I'd alter this stupid sign. Feed the Animals - Then I'd pace around looking kinda fierce. - Then I'd scare the heck out of the crowd. - SWIPE EEEEK! - ga830116 -- That was a pretty convincing performance, if I do say so myself. ga830117 -- - - I love it when they entertain me. ga830118 -- It appears Jon has prepared himself a very nice meal, but something is missing. What could it be? - Why, of course... - The cat hair! ga830119 -- - - Okay, okay, I'll turn the heat up. ga830120 -- This is my humble abode, my dear. - - Who were they? Oh, just a couple of animals I'm giving away soon. ga830121 -- Garfield, sometimes I think you don't like it when I have dates. Absolutely. - Dating leads to marriage. Marriage leads to children. - And do you know what children do to cats? ga830122 -- Hey, Jon, what's happening? - Eat your breakfast, Garfield. - Where's your sense of humor? ga830123 -- * - Isn't that Halley's comet? - ZIP! - Garfield, did you take my steak? Who? Little ol' me? - Look, I don't have your crummy old steak. - HEY! I DON'T HAVE YOUR CRUMMY OLD STEAK! - I'm going to get you for this, Odie. Burp. ga830124 -- Playing with a ball of yarn is a great way to get attention. - THOCK! - GARFIELD! Tah dah. ga830125 -- Hey, Garfield, there's a lasagna under the bed! - - Thanks for dusting under the bed for me, Garfield. I hate you. ga830126 -- - WHIRRR! - nightie-night, Jon. I hate you. ga830127 -- Surprise, Garfield! I brought you another rubber mouse. Yippee skip. - By the way, what happened to your last one? It was tragic. - He was caught and eaten by a rubber cat. ga830128 -- Surprise, Garfield! I threw your old bed in the trash and got you this new one. What do you think? - - Z ga830129 -- Dogs have the world's stupidest toys. Just look at this rubber bone. - Simple minds, simple pleasures. - It certainly doesn't hold the scintillating intellectual challenge of my fuzzy scratching post wit the springy rubber mouse. ga830130 -- * - - - - - ROWR! ARRRGH! - THAT WASN'T FUNNY; GARFIELD! Funny is in the eye of the beholder. ga830131 -- plop! - EEEEEEK! - I'm almost afraid to ask what happened here. ga830201 -- QUICK! QUICK! PUT POOKY'S ARM BACK ON! - Relax, Garfield. I'll fix Pooky right up. It's no big deal. - No big deal?! Look, buster. I've never lost a loved one before. ga830202 -- - I sewed Pooky's arm back on as good as new, Garfield. - Yes, but will he ever play the piano again? Me thinks the cat doth expect too much. ga830203 -- You did a pretty good job of sewing Pooky's arm on. - I used small stitches so as not no leave a scar. - I think he's picking on me. ga830204 -- Pooky, when you lost your arm, I got to thinking about our mortality, and that's depressing. - So promise me you'll never lose your arm again, okay? - ga830205 -- I wonder what my fortune cookie is. - Today you will be whisked away to a large white building where all you have to do is lie in bed all day as lots of people pay attention to you and bring you food. - That sounds too good to be true. ga830206 -- - - I can stare anything down. - - - Uh, Garfield, fish can't blink. - Now he tells me...now that my eyeballs are all dried out? ga830207 -- I wonder what awful thing is going to happen to me today? Maybe the sky will fall. Maybe Odie will bring his long lost twin brother home... - - Or worse yet, maybe Nermal will come for a visit. ga830208 -- Oh sure, you're getting all the attention right now, Nermal, But when you grow up you'll be as unloved as I am. - I'm never growing up. Who are you? Peter Pan or something? - I'm a midget. Some cats get all the luck. ga830209 -- If you want to be cute like me, you have to play wit a ball of yarn. That sounds simple enough. - Yours is over there. - I hate him ga830210 -- Nermal, you're so sweet, why don't I just stuff you into this sugar bowl. - Go ahead and try it, fat boy. - Say, Garfield, Where's Nermal? At a humility lesson. ga830211 -- You disgust me, Nermal. - You're a wide-eyed, mindless, little piece of fluff. You're so cute everyone loves you. - Eat your heart out, bozo. I am, I am. ga830212 -- Unk. You've overstayed your welcome. - - Where's Nermal? You know...I was strange, he muttered "unk" and then left without a word. ga830213 -- And just when I thought it was safe to go back in the kitchen. - Garfield, why don't you like to take baths? Bathing robs cats of precious natural oils that protect us from skin disease. - What do you know? Hop in there right now. Let me get ga830213 -- my tubby toys. - Today, today. - - There now, don't you feel much better? Much. ga830214 -- Are you sure you want to watch this, Garfield? - It's a depressing movie about a man-eating lion that terrorizes a native village. - You root for your side, I'll root for mine. Lion. ga830215 -- I hate movies about man-eating lions. - How can an animal possibly prey on an innocent victim? - Explain that to the chicken you had for dinner. ga830216 -- OH, NO! THE LION RAN DOWN ANOTHER VILLAGER! The original fast-food franchise. - Now what disgusting is the lion doing? - He's spitting the spear out. ga830217 -- Tell me when the lion is finished eating the villager, okay, Garfield? You can look now. - EEEEEK! - He wasn't done yet! Oh, I thought you meant the MAIN parts. ga830218 -- GOOD! They shot the lion! - What do you think of those apples, Garfield? Big deal. - At the gun it was villagers:1, lion:42. ga830219 -- Well, what do you think of the man-eating lion movie? - - You know I hate that, Garfield. ga830220 -- That ice should be good for some yuks. - Ice, one. Odie, nothing. - Watch this. - Air mail! - Have a nice trip, Jon! - OH NO! - MY TOMATO PASTE! ga830221 -- Z - BARK! - ga830222 -- - Oh, a heat vent. - The next best thing to my sunbeam. ga830223 -- - Jogging is much more enjoyable if you have the proper motivation. - Ding Dong ICE CREAM ga830224 -- I'd better save some of this blueberry pie for Jon. To eat it all would be inconsiderate and selfish. - - I am what I am. ga830225 -- This is called a bird feeder, Garfield. - And this is called putting birdseed into the bird feeder. - He can call it what he likes. I call it baiting the trap. ga830226 -- WOW! LOOK AT ALL THIS GOOD FOOD AND NEAT CLOTHING! - This is great stuff. - Stay out of the trash, Garfield. How did you know? ga830227 -- Oboy! Jellybeans! - These green jellybeans are pretty tasty. - I don't care if they are Jon's favorite, I'm going to eat them all. - Why, hello there, Odie. - Here, you may have the last green jellybean. - Aren't I sweet? - My last green ga830227 -- jellybean! I'm going to kill you, Odie! The plot thickens. ga830228 -- I hate mondays. - Maybe if I tore mondays off the calendar there'd be no more mondays. RIP! - ga830301 -- There must be an easier way to eat. - GO AHEAD AND START WITHOUT ME, BREAKFAST. - Burp...I should have thought of that long ago. ga830302 -- What a unique perspective. Noe the ceiling is the floor and the floor is the ceiling. Hi, Garfield. - ZIP - Whatever goes down, must come up. ga830303 -- I wonder whose glasses there are. - - Pablo Picasso's. ga830304 -- I feel good today. I feel strong. - I feel invincible. I feel as tall as a skyscraper. - Get off there, King Kong. ayieeee ga830305 -- * - Hop up here, Garfield. It's dinner time. - "hop up here," he says. ga830306 -- I feel like a change of pace. - I think I'll move in slow-motion today. - Wha!? - - Oh, no, you don't. - - It's hard to take what you want in life when they see you coming. ga830307 -- Uh-oh, there's a package for me. - I don't think I'm going to like it. - Beware of gifts bearing air holes. ga830308 -- Gee, I hope this package doesn't have a bomb or a monster in it. - GASP! IT'S EVEN WORSE THAN MY MOST HIDEOUS FEARS! - It's another sweater for me from Jon's mother. ga830309 -- - scratch scratch scratch scratch scratch - I hate wool sweaters. ga830310 -- - There is one thing I like about this sweater. - Z ga830311 -- - There's more than one way to skin a cat. - TWANG - Check that...CHOKE a cat. ga830312 -- I hate designer sweaters. - Look at this. - The lizard chewed the armpit out of it. ga830313 -- Doo-dee-doo-dee-doo PLOP - Garfield need a better balanced diet. So I'm disguising this liver as dessert. - Why, hello, Garfield. I fixed a yummy treat for you. - I call it "Sweet Surprise" - He'll be surprised, all right. - ARRGH! He ate it! ga830313 -- He ate it! Surprise. ga830314 -- Hey, Garfield, look at what I got at the barber shop. - Th-dah! What do you think? It's tacky, tasteless and disgusting. - It's you. ga830315 -- Bingo! - Hook shot! - Ha-ha-ha, Garfield, ha-ha-ha- ga830316 -- Jon sure looks dumb with this fake mustache. - Very few people can wear a mustache. - Like evil Roy Gato, for instance. ga830317 -- Nyah, nyah, nyaaah, evil Roy Gato does his daily dirty deed. - push - - The mustache made me do it. ga830318 -- Oh, there you are, Garfield. - Let me guess...you stole my fake mustache and ate my spaghetti, right? - How'd you guess? ga830319 -- Give me a kiss, sweetheart. - KISS - How do you tell a lady her mustache needs more wax? ga830320 -- This looks like a good spot to rest. I never saw a spot that wasn't a good spot to rest. - Well, Garfield, here we are in the great outdoors. It's outdoors, all right, but I'd debate the "great". - Just listen to the sounds of nature. Sounds ga830320 -- like noise to me. - Nature can actually speak to you, you know. Go on. Hear that? Nature is speaking to you now. Wait, I do hear something... - I HEAR IT! I HEAR IT! - Nature is saying, "Garfield the cat, you're a long way from your warm bed ga830320 -- and television set." ga830321 -- COME ON, MONDAY! DO IT TO ME NOW! THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME! - THOCK - Thank you for your prompt consideration. ga830322 -- Did I ever tell you about my uncle Nick? He loves to destroy things. He can shred a recliner in 12 seconds... - Mangle ferns by the carload and turn a set of china into powder in the blink of an eye. - He is presently a postal employee in ga830322 -- Chicago. ga830323 -- - Nice try, Garfield, but I don't buy your stupid watermelon disguise. - RATA TATTA TATTA TATA ga830324 -- - Don't make fun of Odie, Garfield. That's not nice. - That's even less nice. ga830325 -- Come and get it, Garfield. - CRASH! - Your not a sailplane, you know. Oh, shut up. ga830326 -- Dinnertime, Garfield! - BANZAI - ga830327 -- * I hate dogs and dogs hate me, I chase the tiny ones, the big ones chase me. - Do Not Open This Gate! Hello, what's this? - That's an open invitation if I ever saw one. - Of course, it may not be wise to open the gate. - But that never ga830327 -- stopped me before. I'll just take a little peek. - - Curiosity mangled the cat. ga830328 -- PUNT - This is turning out to be a decent Monday for a change. - POOMP! ga830329 -- gobble gobble gobble - Garfield, you eat too fast. No, I don't. - I'm just overqualified for the job. ga830330 -- Garfield will never reach this pie up here. - CHINK - And just where are you going? For my morning scale? ga830331 -- ARRRRGH! - What a horrible nightmare! I dreamt I was a dog. - Thank goodness it was only a dream. scratch scratch scratch ga830401 -- No more of this sniveling sissy stuff. - I'm getting out of this tree like a man. - On the other hand, sniveling does have its attributes. ga830402 -- I gotta get out of this tree. - Oh well, they tell me a cat always lands on his feet. - However, THEY failed to mention the pain. ga830403 -- - - - - - - We must have lunch sometime. Things aren't always as they seem. ga830404 -- Hey, Garfield, let's take a vacation. - We'll go someplace tropical. - Save your money. Go sit in your aquarium. ga830405 -- Vacation is going to be so great, Garfield. - We'll get away from this rat race. There'll be no hassles. - A change of pace would be nice. ga830406 -- Hey, Garfield, what do you think of this shirt for our vacation? - Tah-dah! That's awful. - Do you know how many turkeys were destroyed to make that shirt? ga830407 -- Good news, Garfield! The airline has a special allowing children to fly free. So? - So when you leave on vacation, you can pose as my son and ride up front. I will not demean myself by dressing up as some stupid kid. - Otherwise, you'll have ga830407 -- to ride in a kitty carrier in the baggage compartment. DADDY! ga830408 -- I hope you don't mind flying, Garfield. - Some animals don't travel well. Nonsense. - If a dog can be a World War I flying ace, I can surely fly commercial. ga830409 -- Just bear in mind, Garfield, even though we're leaving on vacation... - And even though we're going to have fun... - It's always nice to get back home. ga830410 -- This is going to be fun, Garfield. Ha ha ha, wheee. - I think you'll like flying. I'd like it if I could keep one paw on the ground. - Oooooh, I think I'm getting airsick. - What's that? It sounds like a wing cable fraying! - I SMELL SMOKE! ga830410 -- sniff sniff - WE'RE GOING DOWN IN FLAMES! - We're still on the ground, Garfield. GREAT! CATS AND CHILDREN FIRST! ga830411 -- Tell me, Garfield. - Are you nervous about flying? - I take no chances. ga830412 -- I think you'll enjoy flying, Garfield. - It's a very comfortable and smooth way to travel. - Then what are these little bags for? The easter egg hunt? ga830413 -- No pets allowed. This is my son. He has a body hair problem. - How old are you, sonny? Rowr. - That's baby talk for "one going on two". ga830414 -- crunch crunch - What do you think of airline meals, Garfield? GULP - The only thing with food content was the plastic fork I just ate. ga830415 -- - - The captain has advised that the "Fasten Seat Belt" sign be observed in case some slight air turbulence is encountered. ga830416 -- Well, Garfield, how did you like your first airplane ride? Aside from the nausea, cramps and indigestion, I'm fine. - Have a nice day. HAVE A NICE DAY?! - LET HER LIVE, GARFIELD! LET HER LIVE! ga830417 -- Ah, this is the life, isn't it, Garfield? - For real relaxation, it's hard to beat the tropics. Oh, go sit on a sandburg. - You should go play in the surf, Garfield. Maybe next year. - There are fish out there, you know. Well, why didn't you ga830417 -- say so?! Ha ha ha. - Simple cat, simple pleasures. ga830418 -- Do you know what I love about the tropics, Garfield? I have a feeling you're going to tell me. - It's the miles and miles of sparkling beach. - It may be a beach to you, but it's just a sandbox to me. ga830419 -- There's one thing I love about the tropics. grrrr - FLIP! - The tiny dogs. ga830420 -- You don't seem to be having a good time, Garfield. A keen observation. - What's the problem? I tell you what you do. - Find the biggest, heaviest fur coat you can and put it on. Then go lie in the blazing sun for a few hours and see how many ga830420 -- youks you have. ga830421 -- Tell me, my little wahine, what do you do? I'll bet you walk along the beach all day, then go home to your little thatched hut at night, right? - I'm a computer programmer from Cleveland. - Close. How about a date? He didn't even blink. ga830422 -- This is the life, isn't it, Garfield? More fun than a cat should have. - Nothing to do but lie here in the sun. Listening to your brain bake. - Are you bored, Garfield? Is there sand in your swimsuit? ga830423 -- This is going to upset you, Garfield... - Because I know you've had a great time. - But it's time we think about going home. ga830424 -- La la la - There's nothing like a bubble bath to cure what ails you, Garfield. - pop pop - - - POW! Hey, Jon, what happened to you guys? You wouldn't believe me if I told you. ga830425 -- Dear Garfield, what is your favorite all-time film? - It's "Old Yeller". - I love movies with happy endings. ga830426 -- - - And just what do you think you're doing? Asserting my cathood? ga830427 -- Garfield, why is it cats like to get out at night? - That's when we like to sing on fences. - In the daylight, we'd be easy targets. ga830428 -- Today is thursday, and that's lasagna day. - Here's your cat food, Garfield. Will there be anything else? - Let me jog your memory. ga830429 -- Why do you have such large teeth, Garfield? - All the better to eat you with, my dear. - Stop that! Obviously, sir, you are not a patron of the classics. ga830430 -- I saw an awful movie last night called "Alien Dog." It was about this gigantic mutt that terrorized the world. - However, they did dispatch him with a rather clever ploy. - They electrified a 12-story fire hydrant. ga830501 -- This looks like a good day for some heavy thoughts. - Let's put this whole thing in perspective. - Eating is important. - And sleeping is important. - But nothing is more important than holding someone you love. - Check that. - Reciprocation ga830501 -- is nice, too. ga830502 -- You're too fat, Garfield. Hang it in your ear. - Oh, shut up, Odie. - Why do I have the feeling there's a conspiracy afoot? ga830503 -- * - ARRRGH! - It's diet week. It's diet week. ga830504 -- - I gotta get off this diet. - It's starting to mess with my mind. ga830505 -- - - Release my hand, Garfield. - You release hamburger, I release hand. ga830506 -- Suicide, exercise and dieting. - RIP! - Name three forms of self-abuse. True...how true. ga830507 -- - - ga830508 -- * - - Oh, no! My watch has stopped! - I've missed Garfield's mealtime. - Pets have a way of letting you know when you've missed their mealtime. - You're late. I know, I know. ga830509 -- Tell me, Garfield, when you walk, do your right and left legs travel together, or do you use your opposing legs? - - I'll never walk again. ga830510 -- Z Z Z I wonder how birds can sleep in trees without falling out. - Z Z Z - Z Z Z Aha! ...hammocks. ga830511 -- This is the only way to spend a sunny afternoon. - All you need is a swimming pool. - And a good imagination. ga830512 -- I'm going to take a dip in here, so beat it, bird, before I break your beak. - - I have a mouth with a death wish. ga830513 -- Take my advice. Sun yourself in a pool. You stay cooler that way. - I shall now turn over in order to tan my back. - This is not well thought out. ga830514 -- As much as I hate to do it... - I'd better get out. - Even my fur is getting wrinkled. ga830515 -- Look at those stupid dogs. - Yabba yabba yabba. - ROWF! BARK! BARK! - BARK! YIP! BARK! - Go away, dogs. Leave my cat alone. - bbbbbb - You just had to get in the last lick, didn't you, Garfield? Me and my big tongue. ga830516 -- Hey, Garfield, guess what! We're going to visit dad and mom on the farm this week. - We'll eat some of mom's down-home cooking and help dad with the farm work. - Good thinking, Jon. Let's drive all the way to the sticks and fetch us an apple ga830516 -- pie and a hernia. ga830517 -- Your brother, Doc, has come back to work on the farm. He's here now. - Doc boy! Don't call me "Doc boy". - Jon boy! Mom boy! Doc boy! How are you? Oh boy. ga830518 -- What brings you to the farm, Jon? I promised Garfield some good home cooking. - What would you boys like for breakfast? - My guess is Garfield would like some ham and eggs. ga830519 -- Doc, you're looking more like dad all the time. - You take that back! - SMACK! Hush up, boy. The three stooges live. ga830520 -- You know, Doc, for brothers, we don't look much alike. - It's hard to believe we came from the same place. - You mean, the farm? The funny farm maybe. ga830521 -- Take care now. See you soon. Don't be a stranger. - So long! Bye bye! Bye now. Se yuh. - I can't believe the fuss they make over going to bed. You have a very close family. ga830522 -- skitter skitter skitter - That's odd...two little bugs in full Shakespearean dress. - Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo? I'm right here, Juliet. I bring bad news, Julie baby. Our families are feuding and don't want us to date anymore. ga830522 -- Oh no! - That does it! Let's die in each other's arms and live together in eternity. How do we do that? - Here's how. squash - I'm not one to fool with great literature. ga830523 -- Here comes Arlene. She's crazy about me. - Hi, Arlene. Hi, bozo. - I'm sure she meant to say, "Hunk". ga830524 -- Let's go mousing. What's wrong with lasagna? - There's no thrill of pursuit. - Obviously, you've never snatched one off the table during sundae dinner. ga830525 -- Why do girls always so good, Arlene? - We wear perfume. - Sounds kind of sissified to me. - I get this from a sex that likes to tattoo themselves. ga830526 -- What does the moon remind you of, Garfield? - The moon reminds me of night, and that reminds me of sleep, which reminds me of breakfast... - That wasn't what I had in mind. Then, after breakfast, comes my nap... ga830527 -- I'm taking you to a great restaurant tonight, Arlene. - bonk bonk Look, galvanized, not one of those cheap plastic places. - Now I've seen it all...a three-star garbage can. ga830528 -- I'll see you, Arlene. It is customary, in human circles, to kiss a lady's hand. - You're not a human, and that's not a hand. That's a hairy paw. - Oil and water, nitro and glycerin, chivalry and realism. ga830529 -- - I have a new plant in here, Garfield. Yum yum. - And I don't want you messing with it, okay? Sure. - - First I think I'll eat its tender little leaves, then I'll pick my teeth with its stems, followed by stomping the rest of the plant out ga830529 -- of existence. - Prepare to die! - How did you like my cactus, Garfield? Prepare to die. ga830530 -- I'm going out to a very nice restaurant tonight, Garfield. So you be good while I'm gone. - And, no, you can't come with me. - Who said I wanted to go to your crummy restaurant, anyway? ga830531 -- Jon is going out without us tonight, Odie. - So you know what to do... - You chew his slippers and I'll destroy his chair. ga830601 -- GARFIELD! LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO MY CHAIR! - I DON'T DESERVE THIS! - I was only gone for the evening. Now I know the face. Weren't you a former owner of mine? ga830602 -- Garfield, I know being a cat owner is a big responsibility. - BUT I SHOULD Be ABLE TO LEAVE FOR AN EVENING WITHOUT YOU DESTROYING EVERYTHING! - I WANT A DIVORCE! I get half of everything. ga830603 -- - squirt - OKAY! WHO GREASED MY WIENER? ga830604 -- Hey, Garfield, What do you think of the new turtleneck sweater mom made you? - You're right. - It isn't very flattering, is it? ga830605 -- I'm in a "what if" mood today. - I wonder what would happen if I married Arlene. - We'd have a huge wedding... - Then we'd raise some kittens... - And they'd crawl all over me. - Forget it! I'd make a lousy father. ga830606 -- Garfield, it's noon. Are you getting out of bed? - I'd love to get up... - But the blanket is extra heavy today. ga830607 -- - Think about a big, juicy bone, Odie. - ga830608 -- Z - Z - Z ga830609 -- Garfield, meet my new pet frog, "Herbie". - Isn't he great? Yeh, good ol' "Herbie". - Good ol' "your days are numbered as soon as Jon turns his back, Herbie". ga860610 -- zzzzzzzz - Hey, Garfield, when was the last time you saw my pet frog, Herbie? zzzzz - SNAK! At lunch. ga830611 -- It seems like an age since I gave Odie a boot. - BOOT! - I'm just a sentimental fool. ga830612 -- Something's wrong. - Hey, Garfield! Let's have some fun! forget it, Jon. - I want to take you to an Italian restaurant for a lasagna dinner. No way. - They have ferns for dessert. Big deal. - Then we can come home and I'll hold Odie down ga830612 -- while you beat him up. Try and make me. - - How did you know we have an appointment at the vet's? I don't know. I just know. ga830613 -- In this box, I have a singing and dancing mouse. I have spent four years training him. He will now entertain you. - - I guess I should have cut air holes in the box. ga830614 -- It's hard to believe I'm going to be five years old this sundae. - Shucks, golly, gee-whiz, ratso. - I'm going to have to start watching my language. ga830615 -- Garfield, I hope the sun shines on your birthday. - What a nice thing to say. - I'm going camping. I didn't need that. ga830616 -- - Mother nature has certainly been kind to you, Garfield. - I wish I could say the same for father time. ga830617 -- They say the first thing to go on a cat is its hearing. - - Or was that eyesight? ga830618 -- Your birthday gift is inside the card, Garfield. - Someday, my signature will be worth a lot of money! - ga830619 -- sssh - This is the perfect surprise. It's much too early for Garfield to be up. - He's a year older today, you know. - SURPRISE! - -And a year sneakier. ga830620 -- BARK! - FUMP! - Amoeba Man strikes again. ga830621 -- Amoeba Man goes in search of food. - BONK! - Amoeba man should probably cut eyeholes in his exoskeleton. ga830622 -- Amoeba Man spies food, but Amoeba Man has no mouth. - munch munch - A wonderful thing, osmosis. ga830623 -- Ooooh. - Amoeba Man should not have eaten that hamburger so fast. - I have a nucleus ache. ga830624 -- Amoeba Man stops to admire himself in the mirror. - - Face it, fells. you're one good-looking hunk of protoplasm. ga830625 -- - Amoeba Man falls in love. - If I may be so bold, you have a great-looking pseudo pod, my dear. ga830626 -- Hello. - You can tell a lot about their family from their garbage. - They have an infant who just outgrew its baby clothes. - The father recently gave up golfing. - And the mother cooks lots of pasta. - - Adopt me! ga830627 -- Garfield, I know you're in my fern. I can see your tail. - What do you have to say for yourself? - Dr. Livingstone, I presume. ga830628 -- Slow down there, ace. - Slow down, in deed. - Jon doesn't realize how much I have to eat to maintain my figure. ga830629 -- Bark! Bark! Bark! - Garfield, get out of the cookie tin. - WHANG! ga830630 -- - - ga830701 -- Garfield! You ate my raisin cookies! - I thought you didn't like raisins. - I don't. ga830702 -- Shoo! Shoo! Go away! I don't like you. - SLURP! - I hate blind devotion. ga830703 -- How about a manly game of arm-wrestling, Garfield? You're on. - Are you ready, you furry sissy? Ready when you are, wimp. - - Unnngh Rrrr - What say we call it a draw, Garfield? I'll let you off the hook this time. - I'll see you, Garfield. So ga830703 -- long, Jon. - Speak to me, arm! I'll never ruse this arm as long as I live. ga830704 -- Garfield! I know you're in my fern. I can see your tail. - What do you have to say for yourself? - I say we attack the fort at dawn. ga830705 -- I wonder what this is. - - Ah, a booby trap. ga830706 -- - - ga830707 -- - There you have it... - Odie's so stupid, he doesn't even understand the law of gravity. ga830708 -- They say hammocks are very relaxing. - - Big deal. ga830709 -- - - ga830710 -- - What do you think of my Ming vase, Garfield? - CRASH! - Min, Shming, they don't make'm like they used to. - WHA!... GUH!... I DON'T!... BUH!... YOU!... YOU! - YOU DUMB ANIMAL! YOU'RE SO STUPID, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DID! - I know I ga830710 -- - destroyed a priceless Ming dynasty vase as an overt expression to communicate my contempt for the politically oppressive doctrines of their early 17th century administration. ga830711 -- I could sure use some of Jon's deodorant. - ssst - How's it going, Garfield? fine, until I found the spray starch in your cabinet. ga830712 -- Go fetch the paper, will you, Garfield? That's what i live for. - Here you are, sahib. - Hey! This paper is all chewed up! Sahib asks fish, paper is wet. Sahib asks cat, paper is holey. ga830713 -- - - WAH-HA HA-HA! I hate it when they do that. ga830714 -- - slup slup slup - Drool fuel. ga830715 -- Aw...how sweet. - Wait a minute! I'll bet you want something from me, don't you? - How dare you suggest I trade my affection for selfish reasons! For a bite of that hamburger, I'll forget you said that. ga830716 -- Garfield, I know you're in my fern. I can see your tail. - What do you have to say for yourself? - Arf? ga830717 -- * - - - - I am about to outdo myself. - WHAP! ga830718 -- Garfield, I know you're in my fern. I can see your tail. - What do you have to say for yourself? - Pardon me, sir. Have you seen a tail here around? ga830719 -- You don't like me, do you? I like you. - No, you don't. I'm crazy about you. I love you. - Now why don't you go play in the blender? SEE? ga830720 -- Why don't you like me? You're young and you're cute. - If I were old and ugly, would you like me? Possibly. - This must be one of the things cats do when they think there are no humans around. Where's my cane? Where's my cane? ga830721 -- I hate to do this. - I don't know how I'll get out of this tree. - But at least I'll be away from Nermal. ga830722 -- What are you doing up here? Did you come to save me? - No, I just came to visit. - Well, talk fast. I was just considering leaping to my death. ga830723 -- How do we get out of this tree? We jump. - If that little twerp can jump, so can I. - ga830724 -- Z - Rise and shine. - Time to get up, Jon. - I'm hungry. - This ought to wake him up. - Jon must really be socked out. - I wasn't about to give him the satisfaction. ga830725 -- Garfield, I know you're in my fern. I can see your tail. - What do you have to say for yourself? - You'll have to speak up. I can't hear you over the band. ga830726 -- - Gee...uh, thanks, Odie. clunk! - What is it, Garfield? I'd wager it would have been easier to recognize before it wandered into traffic. ga830727 -- Here comes Odie. His bark is worse than his bite. Bark! Bark! - BARK! - And his breath is worse than his bark. ga830728 -- - SPLAT! - Spaghetti can turn on you when it's wounded. ga830729 -- Oh, boy! I love to sluck spaghetti! - SLUCK! - Sorry about that. ga830730 -- SLUCK - There's only one irritating thing about slucking spaghetti... - The whiplash. ga830731 -- Hey, Garfield. - I have a big date with Liz tonight. What do you think about my outfit? - Mmmph - Hee hee hee - I don't have to take this. WAH-HA-HA-HA! - No cat's going to make a fool out of me. ga830801 -- Garfield, I know you're in my fern. I can see your tail. - What do you have to say for yourself? - If you must know, I am a rare carnivorous fern, and if you don't mind, I'd like to finish eating your cat in peace. ga830802 -- - HA-HA! YOU DIDN'T GET MY FOOD THAT TIME! - SPLAT ga830803 -- - - You've been reading "Alice in Wonderland" again, haven't you? You must be psychic. ga830804 -- RRR - RRR!!!!! - I want to know why you did that, Garfield! That's not half as interesting as how I got up there to begin with. ga830805 -- Garfield, I want you to get all the mice out of this house, right now! Oh, very well. - Be a good boy and call my attorney, will you? - And have him serve them with an eviction notice. ga830806 -- - ARRRGH!!! B-B-B-B! - Cats are so unpredictable. Predictably so. ga830807 -- CATCH THAT MOUSE! - Garfield, why don't you eat mice like other cats? I don't like to hurt mice. How can I get that through your thick skull? - * - Dear Jon: The mice and I have an agreement. They don't bug me and I don't bug them. Therefore, ga830807 -- I will never hurt mice...signed, GARFI* - GARFI*************** tick! tick! tick! The key must be stuck. - WHAM AAAWK! - Sorry about that, fella. ga830808 -- - OH, NO! - My legs re shrinking! ga830809 -- I've really done it this time. My belly has outgrown my legs. - I guess there's only one thing to do... - Get fitted for stilts. ga830810 -- * Hummm * - Oh, no! - You know you're overweight when you're sitting around rocking, and you realize you don't have a rocking chair. ga830811 -- Garfield, you're getting dangerously overweight. - How dangerous can a little extra fat be? - Who, blub, would, blub, have, blub, guessed? ga830812 -- Don't worry about your condition, Garfield. - You can still lead a useful and productive life. - As a paperweight, a doorstop, a... Put your face closer to thee claws. ga830813 -- Rats! The dog next door! - Ever had a nightmare come true? ga830814 -- * Hi, hi, Daisy-Waisy. Would you wike some wa-wa? Oh boysy-woysy. - If you speak nicely to plants, they grow better, Garfield. Bologna. - - - DIE! - Live and learn. ga830815 -- - RIIIP! - Cruelty is second nature to that cat. ga830816 -- - - Diet time. Rats. ga830817 -- Happy diet, Garfield. Here's a banana for breakfast. - - Bang! ga830818 -- As long as you're dieting, Garfield, why don't you exercise, too? - Sure...why not? - As long as the noose is around my neck, I might as well jump off the horse. ga830819 -- Sticking to your diet, Garfield? Yup. - FUMP - But I did eat the pictures out of your cookbook. ga830820 -- You're looking slim there, Garfield. Thanks. - I couldn't find a corset. - So I borrowed one of Jon's tube socks. ga830821 -- - - - - - They say we can visit him 2 to 4 on saturday. Food gone! Food all gone! ga830822 -- I can't possibly eat all this food. It's time for a...FOOD FIGHT! - SPLUT! - You stay out of this, Monday. ga830823 -- Hallo, folks. How do you do? I'm Garfield, the cat. I'll entertain you. - SPLAT! - You stay out of this, mom. ga830824 -- I just flew in from Pittsburgh and, boy, are my arms tired. - - The guy on the hook must be asleep. ga830825 -- I gotta sing! I gotta dance! - BAP! BOP! BIFF! - I gotta be crazy. ga830826 -- Goody, Jon's not around. - Jon stifles my lifestyle. - Put the dog down! He's no fun. ga830827 -- - ZIP! - I don't know how we does it, we jus' does it. ga830828 -- - splut - plik - bat - scratch- drip - Bored, Garfield? Some days I get tired of being a cat. ga830829 -- - - That wasn't very nice, Garfield. - In this business, "nice! doesn't put bread on the table. ga830830 -- Why is it I'm crazy about you, Garfield? Probably because I'm perfect. - You claw the drapes, shed on the furniture, steal my food and hassle the dog. - Nobody's perfect. ga830831 -- Garfield's in for a surprise. I put an alarm on the refrigerator. - That's the first rule for successfully living with a cat. - You must be smarter than the cat. ga830901 -- Given the choice, Garfield, would you rather be rich or famous? - You're talking to a cat here, fella. All I need is a warm lap, some good food and a little attention. - I guess a cat wouldn't care about either. I'd rather be rich. ga830902 -- - - Any last words, Garfield? How about "Gotcha"? ga830903 -- Here's some salad and dressing, Garfield. You may mix them to your taste. - gluk gluk gluk - How was it? Could've use more dressing. ga830904 -- Fire Destroys House - It's time you boys learn where the fire exit is. - In case of fire, go straight to your swinging pet door, got that? - I'd better give them a little test. - FIRE! - Clever me. ga830905 -- Jon must be cleaning the heating grate. I wonder what grates are for, anyway. - OOPS! - Obviously, they're to keep one's house from eating one's cat. ga830906 -- Silly me had to fall into the heating vent. Now here I am, residing deep within the bowels of my house. - Forced to spend my remaining days fending for myself in the tin tunnels of the duct work, the solenoid jungle of the wiring system and ga830906 -- the polyvinyl chloride playground in the crawl space. - Hey! I think there's a book here somewhere. ga830907 -- Meyow! - GARFIELD! WHERE ARE YOU? I'm in the plumbing. - WHAT CAN I DO? Just don't flush the toilet. ga830908 -- Hey, Odie! I'm trapped in the heating vent. Help me out! - A hacksaw-great! - ga830909 -- - Unnngh - Garfield...where are you? Down here in the floor's joists, plotting your untimely demise. ga830910 -- Free at last! - There is something to be said for brute force. - It is usually followed by brute stupidity. ga830911 -- Z - BARK! - grrrr - slurp! - Z - ZIP! - You can growl in my face, you can lick my head, but if you touch my food, consider yourself dead. ga830912 -- Whew, not much room left. - I'll have to decide between the blueberries or cheese for dessert. - I hear the blueberries are lovely this time of year. ga830913 -- Why haven't I ever seen talking food before? Because you're as dumb as your look. - Oh, yeah? Touche. - I can't believe I'm talking to a cheese. ga830914 -- I wish I were a cat instead of a mouse. - Never be ashamed of what you are. We must all accept our plight in life and make the best of it. - You're not on the business end of the food chain. Good point. ga830915 -- I have a confession to make. - My mother was a lemming. What's a lemming? - A gerbil with suicidal tendencies. My condolences. ga830916 -- So you're half lemming. Yes, my mother always had the urge to cast herself off a cliff into the sea. - AWK! - Darn you, mom. ga830917 -- What the heck are you doing? - I'm half lemming, you know. So? - I'm getting back to my roots. I had to ask. ga830918 -- - If you eat this pie, I'm going to kill you. - - - - GARFIELD! YOU ATE MY PIE! - One of the great criminal minds of your time, I ain't. ga830919 -- - Rats. - I used up my eating energy on the getting here. ga830920 -- I'm tired of being out of shape. - I can't catch Odie. I can't catch my breath. - Heck, I can't even catch my lunch. ga830921 -- I really don't like myself when I'm out of shape and overweight. - Well, this time I'm going to do something about it! - I'm going to lower my expectations! ga830922 -- Come on, Jon! Up and at'em! - There's a fresh new day out there. Are you going to join me, or are you going to lie there and wither away? - There's nothing worse than a born-again jogger. ga830923 -- hop hop hop - hop - Leg warmers. ga830924 -- Get on your mark, get set... - Jog! - The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. ga830925 -- It's going to be a scorcher today. - The sidewalk is already hot. - OOCH! EECH! OUCH! - Oog! Argg! Ick! - Garfield! What are you doing on this hot sidewalk? - Why don't we go inside? - What? And disappoint my public? CLINK ga830926 -- I'm not one to brag on my teddy bear, but you are not going to believe this. - Okay, Pooky, pay attention now. Are you ready? - Play dead! ga830927 -- I'm getting too old to have a teddy bear. - It's not that I feel silly... - It's the peer pressure. ga830928 -- Pooky, I have to start weaning myself from you. I gotta make it out there on my own. - - That's good enough for the first week. ga830929 -- I have to break this teddy bear dependency. - - ga830930 -- I've made it a whole day without my teddy bear, but if I don't cuddle something soon, I'll go crazy. - - This sweat sock just isn't the same. ga831001 -- POOKY! - So much for kicking the teddy bear habit. - It's unnatural to be near someone you love and not hold them now and then. ga831002 -- I don't believe my eyes! - I've finally found the perfect skipping stone! The perfect weight, perfectly round and flat, everything. - But there are no lakes around here, and it's too far to the river. - Darn it! I've got this stone begging to ga831002 -- be skipped and no place to skip it! - * - KONG! - Hey, look! The perfect skipping stone! ga831003 -- I hate it when Odie gets caught outside in the rain. - Not that I care that much for Odie, mind you. - ga831004 -- - Here's one of the great mysteries of the universe... - When Odie closes his mouth, where does his tongue go? ga831005 -- I wanted to buy you another bed, Garfield. But the only sizes they came in were small, medium and large. - They didn't have showboat! - A quick wit is best accompanied by quick reflexes. ga831006 -- I love a well-balanced meal. - Something from the four basic food groups... - Meat, vegetable, dairy and catsup. ga831007 -- Garfield should be finding that rubber hot dog in his bowl right about now. - And he should be coming for me right about... - Now. ga831008 -- I think I'll have pancakes for breakfast. - - Once again our nation's criminal element has callously disregarded the truth in packaging laws. ga831009 -- Ho with a capital hum. - I wish I could kick this industrial-strength depression I have today. - - - - - Mother nature, if you had a body and a face, I'd give you a hug and a kiss. ga831010 -- Here comes Arlene. She's crazy about me. - Hi, Arlene. - I said..."Hi, Arlene". ga831011 -- Hey, Arlene. Guess how much weight I can press. - I'll bet you don't know. I'll bet I don't care. - Right now I'd trade all this strength for just one snappy comeback. ga831012 -- Hey, Arlene. Look at this. So what? - Just what does it take to impress you, lady? A challenge to my head as well as my heart. - As soon as she regains consciousness, I'll challenge the heart part. ga831013 -- It's my dinnertime, Arlene. But don't despair, I'll be right back. The moments will seem like years till you return. - I don't know how she does it... - How one well-turned phrase from that woman can suck all the wind out of your sails. ga831014 -- Arlene, I'm sick of the witmatching mood you're in. - Okay, I'll stop it. There's no battle of the intellects here anyway. - You're right. It was kind of like swatting a fly with a buick. ga831015 -- How about a kiss, Arlene? What kind of animal are you? - A cat! - AUUGH! I did it! I did it! She said, "what kind of animal are you?" and I said, "a cat!" ga831016 -- Isn't that pathetic? - Odie, all you ever do is stare and slobber. - You're too happy, and that's not healthy. - People don't trust a chronically happy person. - Who could possibly love a grinning idiot like this? - - YOU STAY OUT OF THIS! ga831017 -- Oh, boy, am I down today. - You look down today, Garfield. But I think I'm even downer. - I hate one-downmanship. ga831018 -- I am down...down, down, down, down, down. - Down, down, down, dooby doo down, down. - Comma, comma, down dooby doo down, down. ga831019 -- I'm so depressed it's depressing. Tell me about it. - I think I'll go out and shoot myself. Sure. - You're just trying to cheer me up. ga831020 -- Why are we so depressed, Garfield? I have this theory. - We've been staying up too late, lately. - And being happy takes entirely too much energy. ga831021 -- We've gotta do something about this depression, Garfield. Check. - Maybe a change of surroundings would cheer us up. Check. - Wrongo. Check ga831022 -- There's only one way out of this deep blue funk we're in, Garfield. I hate to do it, but it has to be done. I hope it works. - Ooch! Eech! - Tah-dah! Bingo! ga831023 -- - click HEY! - click I was watching "Cheerleader High!. - click Well, I'm watching "Wonder Cat"! - rip - CRASH - I was much more passive before I became a wonder cat cadet. ga831024 -- Hello, folks. I'm here to entertain you! Are you glad to see me? ---well, are you? - Okay, I can take a hint. Who needs you anyway? - I DO! ga831025 -- I knew a cat who was so ugly, he had to tie a squirrel around his neck to make the dog chase him. - BAP! KONK! - It's nice to see I'm attracting a crowd with some taste. ga831026 -- I knew a dog who was really stupid... - He was so stupid, when he turned around to lie down, he had to stop to ask directions! - I thought that was better than a one-shoe joke. ga831027 -- What do you get if you cross a cat with a doctor? - You get a cat with a low golf handicap. - BONK KONG! ga831028 -- Did you hear the one about the bucktoothed chicken? - - He...uh, raised a lovely family, was a well-respected member of the community, and led a comfortable life, titty boom. ga831029 -- Stop me if you've heard this one. - SMACK KONG! WHOP! BAP! - Let me rephrase that. ga831030 -- - We are nearing the bewitching hour when evil forces well up within me. - I love it. EEEK! - Gargle snort drool YIP - Heh, heh, heh-another fruitful Halloween of scaring kids and dogs. - Rats. - My mom told me if I made this face too often, ga831030 -- it would freeze in this position. ga831031 -- Here's some chicken soup, Garfield. - No thanks, I really couldn't. - I've never known Garfield to refuse food. ga831101 -- - I'm taking this steak and there's nothing you can do about it, Chipmunk Cheeks. - I've always encouraged Garfield to be assertive. But I believe he's crossed the fine line to obnoxious. ga831102 -- BONK! BONK! - BONK! BONK! - Odie's going to have to learn to walk one of these ways. ga831103 -- I wonder what pets do when they don't know their owners are watching. - Let's find out. - I don't believe it. Neither do I. Odie just drew to an inside straight. ga831104 -- CLANG! - Hey, Garfield, how do you like my new dinner bell? - It got my attention. ga831105 -- - Oh no! My legs are turning to jelly! My mind is turning to mush! Could it be a laser? ...a death ray? No! It's... - My sunbeam. ga831106 -- This looks like a good place to sit and muse. - What is the thing called life, Odie? - Montaigne said, "The value of life lies not in the length of days, but in how we make use of them." - Holmes said, "Life is painting a picture, not doing a ga831106 -- sum." - James said, "Be not afraid of life. Believe that your life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact." - - poo Odie, sometimes I envy you. ga831107 -- Hey, Garfield, we're going to visit aunt Gussie. - I know she's old and mean, but underneath she has a heart of gold. - I hear she used to double-date with Lizzie Borden. ga831108 -- Hi, aunt Gussie. Well if this isn't my daydreaming nephew, Jon, and his cat Blubberbutt. - Look, rodent breath, if you come within ten feet of my canary, I'll make a doily out of your hide. - I like her. ga831109 -- Why, aunt Gussie! I didn't know you were homecoming queen in 1922. You bet. - Back then I had beauty, style, grace, charm... - And a body that wouldn't quit! ga831110 -- How are you getting along financially these days, aunt Gussie? - Oh, I have my social security, I make quilts and sell my African violets... - And I knock down three hun a week teaching slam dancing at Denny's Pogo Pit. ga831111 -- What would you like for Christmas, aunt Gussie? Oh...nothing much. - Maybe something for my bed like a little lacey throw pillow. - Stuffed with John Travolta's chest hair. ga831112 -- It was nice visiting with you, aunt Gussie. Same here, Jon. - And you'd better forget about your crush on John Travolta. He's young enough to be your grandson. - DON'T TELL THAT TO MY COMPUTER DATING SERVICE! ga831113 -- click! - Well, look who's in the television set. - Garfield is such a clown. - Ha-ha-ha. - WAH HA HA - Wait a minute! - Something just occurred to me. ga831114 -- Look at all those people. All going to work to process food, produce electricity, manufacture kitty litter and so on. - All just for me. - I'd thank them individually, but they know who they are. ga831115 -- Odie - WHOCK! SPLAT - That's for not being a cat. ga831116 -- I guess I shouldn't have clobbered Odie for not being a cat. - If everyone had a choice, we'd all be cats. So I can't blame him for not being a cat. - This is for being a dog! punt! ga831117 -- whirrr - glup plop - How's your cat food, Garfield? I could say more for the presentation. ga831118 -- Oh, look, it's one of those things you pull on for service. - YANK! - Bring me a danish and a cup of coffee. ga831119 -- - Stop playing with your food, Garfield. - I'm not. It dried out while my face was in it. ga831120 -- This looks like a good place for a little nap-nap. - - - click WHIRRR - GASP! - SPLAT! - Hello, mom? The washing machine just spit out my jockey shorts. That's one thing I'd never admit to my mother. ga831121 -- Here you go, Garfield. Take a big bite. - OH NO! - Just kidding. ga831122 -- - SLAM! Yo, Garfield! What'cha doing? - Casting a critical eye on a career as a doorstep. ga831123 -- Sitting atop this door, I see all and know all. - Now where's that fat cat of mine? - Don't take my name in vain. SMACK! ga831124 -- Perching high on a door gives vent to a cat's philosophical bent. - Observing life from an omniscient point of view allows one to witness fascinating human rituals. - Like Jon cleaning his ear. squeak squeak ga831125 -- I wish I knew how to get off this door. - Sometimes it would be nice to have all the decisions made for you. - SLAM! and sometimes not. ga831126 -- PLOP - Where did you come from, Garfield? - Rumor has it the stork brought me. ga831127 -- - - - - - - They didn't call me the shimmy king for nothing. ga831128 -- I hate mondays. I can't shake this awful feeling that something dreadful is going to happen to me. - I'm saved! It's nice to see a friendly face. - You're going to the vet, Garfield. ARRRGH! ga831129 -- You don't look happy, Garfield. - Happy about going to the clinic? Put yourself in my shoes. - You get to flirt with the lady vet while I get the business end of her thermometer. ga831130 -- Did you know I'm a medical curiosity, doc? I'm not surprised. - I'm missing a major organ. Your brain? - My heart, you've stolen it away. I hate to see a doctor cry. ga831201 -- I'd like to make another appointment, Liz. Sure, when? - How about Friday night for dinner? - NO! Subtle but firm. ga831202 -- Your cat is in good health, Mr. Arbuckle. Dandy. Now let's talk about us. - Let's do. Really? - You owe me forty dollars. I just adore love patter. ga831203 -- Hi, Odie. - - If that dog's brain were a car, it would be jammed in neutral. ga831204 -- GASP! - OH NO! WE'RE OUT OF COFFEE! - This is your fault, you guzzler! You didn't buy any! - Look at us, Garfield. We're getting irritable and shaky. We need coffee! - SNIFF...WHAZAT?! ZAT!S COFFEE! - EEEK! LOOK, HUBERT! PEEPING TOMS! Don't ga831204 -- flatter yourself, Reba. Now go hide the silver. ga831205 -- It's time you earn your keep around here, Garfield. There's a mouse hole and there's some cheese. You know what to do. - I certainly do. - ga831206 -- Here's the scenario: cat crouches by cheese waiting for mouse to exit hole to retrieve same. Cat catches mouse. Fade out. The End. - Heck with it. - I prefer stories with a happy ending. ga831207 -- Why should I have to catch an innocent little mouse? I have nothing against him. In fact, he's kind of lovable. - If you don't catch that mouse, I'm putting you out i the cold! - The furry twerp dies. ga831208 -- This is demeaning. I have a noble heritage. I am a unique, vital individual. - And all I'm considered as around here is a mousetrap. - I must speak to my kitty litter changer about that. ga831209 -- I don't want to catch that mouse. He's cute. I've even nicknamed him... - - "Stretch" ga831210 -- - - Live and let live, I say. ga831211 -- * _ I'm just a ramlin' kind of guy...ramlin', ramblin' - rambl - - Oh, no! I've heard terrible things about city sewers! - They say the pet alligators that are flushed into the sewers grow to huge proportions. - But this is ridiculous. ga831212 -- OH NO! DON'T MAKE ME DO IT! ANYTHING BUT THAT! - TURN BACK! TURN BACK! - Sometimes, a cat's feet just gotta climb. ga831213 -- Here I am, stuck up a tree. Things couldn't be worse. - Okay, okay, NOW things couldn't be worse. - BOOM ga831214 -- I maybe stranded up a tree... - But at least I'm on a sturdy limb. - The story of my life. ga831215 -- Hey, fatso. What does a bird like you eat? - Cats. - chirp chirp ga831216 -- This isn't safe. - Shoo! Shoo! Somebody might get hurt! - TOING! ga831217 -- A way down! All I have to do is dive into that birdbath. - - 7.0 6.5 ga831218 -- Uh-oh, I feel a sneeze coming on! - Wah, wah. - WAH! WAH! WAH! - WACHOO! - Auntie em! Auntie em! Yeah, I got you, my pretty, and your little dog, too. ga831219 -- 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hope that St. Nicholas soon would be there; FILL THIS ONE, SANTA! - The children ga831219 -- were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugarplums danced in their heads; NOW GIMME A VISION OF LASAGNA - And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap, had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap. THIS IS MY KIND OF ga831219 -- STORY. ga831220 -- When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. WHAT'S A SASH? - The moon on the breast of the new-fallen ga831220 -- snow Gave the luster of midday to objects below. When, what to my wondering eyes should appear. But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer. THEY LOOK BIGGER ON TELEVISION. - With a little old driver, so lively and quick, I knew in a ga831220 -- moment it must be St. Nick. OR MAYBE SANTA CLAUS. ga831221 -- More rapid than eagles his coursers they came. And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name; "Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now, Prancer and Vixen! On, Comet! On, Cupid! On, Donder and Blitzen! ON, DOPEY! ON, SNEEZY! ON, HAPPY! - "To ga831221 -- the top of the porch! To the top of the wall! Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all! CAN'T THEY JUST WALK ANYWHERE? - As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky, So up to the housetop ga831221 -- the coursers, they flew, With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas, too. TUNE IN TOMORROW. THE GOOD PART'S COMING. ga831222 -- And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof The prancing and pawing of each little hoof. As I drew in my head, and was turning around, Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound. OH, NO! A CHIMNEY MONSTER! - He was dressed all in fur, ga831222 -- from his head to his foot, and his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot; A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack. YOU DIDN'T BREAK ANY TOYS; DID YOU? - His eyes-how they ga831222 -- twinkled! His dimples how merry! His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow; HE ALSO HAS A WELL-ROUNDED PERSONALITY. ga831223 -- The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth. And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath; He had a broad face and a little round belly That shook when he laughed, like a bowiful of jelly. HO! HO! HO! A FEW SIT-UPS WOULD TAKE CARE OF ga831223 -- THAT, FELLA. - He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf. And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself; A wink of his eye and a twist of his head Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread. WE MUST HAVE LUNCH SOMETIME. - He spoke ga831223 -- not a word, but went straight to his work, and filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk, and laying his finger aside of his nose. And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose; HOW DID HE DO THAT? ga831224 -- He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, And away they all flew like to down of a thistle. But I heard him exclaim, are he drove out of sight, - HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT! WHAT A NICE GUY, WHAT A NICE STORY. - ga831224 -- Have a happy and loving holiday season. ga831225 -- - Merry Christmas, Garfield. I got you some great presents! - Here is a radio controlled mouse... - And a mink scratching post! - ptoo - Odie, that bone is everything you own in the world. - It's the expensive gifts that impress me. ga831226 -- Heh he rattle rattle - Cats have such active imaginations. I wonder what's going on in Garfield's mind right now. - Well...here I am, in a brown paper bag. ga831227 -- Interesting. - Residing in a brown paper bag gives one an all-new perspective of one's self. - I feel like a dirty magazine. ga831228 -- This bag needs eyeholes. - rip rustle rustle - Something's not right here. ga831229 -- Got my sack, got my eyeholes, what more could a cat need? - ARRRRGH! - Armholes, definitely armholes. ga831230 -- Awk! There's someone in this bag with me. - Oh, it's you. - Hello, bellybutton. ga831231 -- fffff - POW! - I didn't know you were in the bag, Garfield. I was playing a trick on Odie. At least I died for a good cause. ga840101 -- Oh boy, what a party, I ate too much. - I gotta get up and exercise. Here I go. - Okay, here I go o the count of three...one, two, three and up! - Up...up and exercise. Come on, Garfield. You can do it. - This time I'm really going to do it. ga840101 -- Here go the legs lifting the body...now! - This time I'm really, really going to do it...one, two, three...Hi ya! - Have you been up today, Garfield? I think so. ga840102 -- Rise and shine, Garfield, It's a bright new day! - It's gonna be a wonderful day, a great day! - I think I overcheerfuled it. ga840103 -- How do you want your coffee, Garfield? Make it sit up and bark. - How's this? - Just right. ga840104 -- - - Oh, no! It's the old "Disguise the tongue as a loaf of french bread" trick! ga840105 -- Okay, who loosened the top on my saltshaker?! - Garfield, that wasn't very nice. You're right, that wasn't very nice. - But it was extremely funny. ga840106 -- Go outside and play, Garfield. - Have a good time. - "Have a good time." he says. ga840107 -- - Hey, Garfield, don't eat the lasagna yet... - It's still too hot. You're telling me? ga840108 -- - - - - - - ga840109 -- Don't eat me. You're too fat already! - Who are you? This is your conscience speaking. - I don't have a conscience. I know. I'm free-lancing. ga840110 -- If you are my conscience, what are you doing in my food bowl? I took on a form you would understand. - What do you really look like? Well, if you must know... - I look like everyone's mother. Natch. ga840111 -- Tell me, conscience, just what does a conscience do? - It is my duty to make you feel bad about things that make you feel good. - That's sad. It's a living. ga840112 -- Well, conscience, if you don't mind, I'll go to bed now. Tah tah - Look both ways before crossing the street. - What's that supposed to mean? Sorry, it was just a knee-jerk nag. ga840113 -- I can't believe my conscience is following me around. I must be cracking up. - A little nap-nap should clear my head. - You sleep too much. ACK ga840114 -- Don't you think you should be getting up now? - Look, conscience, get out of my life. I have no use for you. Careful, fella. or I'll call my big brother. - Who's he? Guilt. On the jogging track in 5 minutes, sucker! Be there! ga840115 -- Good morning, ham, good morning, eggs, good morning, milk. - There's one nice thing about visiting the farm... - The food is fresh. - Here, lunch. Here, lunch. - Uh-oh. - This is not good. - Garfield! Where have you been?! At Custer's last ga840115 -- stand. ga840116 -- I love it when the good humor man comes. DING DING - I love it when I get a popsicle. - I hate it when my lips stick to the *@!! popsicle. ga840117 -- Ever notice how moths circle the light? - Like planets orbiting a distant sun. - I love it when I get philosophical. ga840118 -- I wonder what happens when a moth gets too close to the light. - AYIEEEE! FOOM! - At least he didn't suffer. ga840119 -- Let us examine a pet phenomenon called the "rips". - That's when your pets race around the house for no apparent reason. - Other than to mangle the family cat. ga840120 -- You boys stop racing around. - Garfield, slow down! - Okay. ga840121 -- Would you like to go for a walk, Odie? - Let's see...I need a leash. - You stay out of this. ga840122 -- - I love sacks. - I wouldn't kid you, Parnelli. This honey will do 0-60 in 6 seconds flat. - I swear, Sally, get your head out of the sand. The sack dress is coming back. - I think I'll step into the root cellar and see what's for dinner. - ga840122 -- OH, NO! - Hello, maintenance? Call the exterminator, my condo has dogs. ga840123 -- - Good morning, Garfield. It's me, Nermal. I'm young and good-looking and you're not. - I didn't need that. ga840124 -- Can I get you anything for breakfast, Garfield? - Yeah, how about a big glass of freshly-squeezed kitten juice? - You don't like me, don't you? ga840125 -- How cute! Nermal brought me my newspaper! - And my slippers and my pipe! What more could a man want? - How about a woman? ga840126 -- Let's get you into trouble, Nermal. - Look in the cookie jar! Look in the cookie jar! No, you can't have a cookie, Garfield, You'll spoil dinner. - Thanks for the cookies. Jeff would have known what Lassie was talking about. ga840127 -- - BLUT! BLUT! - Call it cruel. Call it juvenile. I call it asserting myself. ga840128 -- I hate to bother you, sir, but you put insufficient postage on your package. - What package? - This kitten you're sending to Abu Dhabi. GARFIELD ga840129 -- Poor me. - What a yucky evening. - It's dark and rainy and there's nothing on television. - I crave sunshine, daisy-filled meadows and good times. I need a ticket out of here. - Wait a minute! I have one! SNAP! - ga840130 -- I wonder how fast I can run. - I wonder what would happen if I hit this kitty door at Mach 2. - I wonder if killing a mailman is a federal offense. ga840131 -- I love attacking the mailman. Some days I scratch him. Some days I bite him. Some days I trip him. - Today I'm trying something new. * - I'm humiliating him. ga840201 -- * - ARRRGH! b-b-b-b - When he comes around, he'll thank me for breaking up the monotony of his dreary job. ga840202 -- Come on, mailman, deliver that mail. - And when you do, I'm going to leap on you and all that will be left will be your mailbag and that silly-looking hat of yours. - Has the mailman come yet, Garfield? No, he's still standing at the end of ga840202 -- the sidewalk sobbing. ga840203 -- SLAM! - Rats! I missed him! - Apparently, no one ever told him to look both ways before crossing the street. SCREECH ga840204 -- Be a good boy and fetch the mail, Garfield. Oui, mon capitaine. - RIP ROWT CLOBBER BLAP - Did you hurt him bad? Oh, just a few lacerations, abrasions and internal injuries. I was in a good mood. ga840205 -- plop! - - GLUP! - ptoo ptoo - SPLUT! - Salvage the pride, Garfield, salvage the pride. ga840206 -- Hey, Garfield, it says here people can perform superhuman feats of strength during periods of great stress. - What baloney! - By the way, I'm taking you to the vet today. ga840207 -- You can't hide from forever, Garfield. I'm going to find you and take you to the vet. - You may be sneaky, but I'm sneakier. - "Sneaky" is my middle name. ga840208 -- Garfield can't resist lasagna, and when he comes to eat it, I'm going to catch him and take him to the vet. - SMACK GULP SLURP - That cat has the longest lips I've ever seen. ga840209 -- Now where could Garfield be? - He's not in tie cookies, and he certainly won't be in the doggie biscuits. - POO! It's a good thing I can't read. ga840210 -- Aha! There you are, Garfield! You're going to the vet now. - - Sorry, Odie. SMACK ga840211 -- I wish I could find Garfield's hiding place so I could take him to the vet. - He's sure hiding in a good place. - A good place-- Not a smart place-- But a good place. ga840212 -- I can't believe my luck. This is too perfect. - I will now slide down this banister and make a four-point landing on Odie down there. - BANZAI! - - RATS! - I can see the headline now: "Twist in plot fatal to local cat". ga840213 -- Wouldn't it be great if everything could talk? - I'd get out of bed and the wall would say, "Good morning, Jon." and the sink would say, "Good morning, Jon." That wouldn't be so hot. - Every time a light bulb burned out, it would be like a ga840213 -- death in the family. ga840214 -- If people had hair all over their bodies, would they wear clothing? - - Probably not. ga840215 -- What would happen if people were cats and cats were people? - That's an easy one. - Dogs would soon be extinct. ga840216 -- I was wondering, Garfield... - What if being fat were considered attractive? - What do you mean, "what if," bozo? ga840217 -- I wonder what life would be like if we never had to eat. - That would take some getting used to. - For a time, mothers would fix their families three square nothings a day. ga840218 -- What if there were never a Leonardo da Vinci? - That would be awful! - The da Vinci kids would have been orphans. ga840219 -- RING! - BRING! SMASH! - DING DING DING DING - STOMP! STOMP! STOMP! - GASP! COUGH WHEEzeeee - SHOOP! - Rats! Too late! Now I'm wide awake. ga840220 -- I hate mondays. - This is your conscience speaking. It's not nice to hate mondays. Look at it as starting a fresh week with a clean slate. - I hate mondays. ga840221 -- This is your conscience speaking. Don't you dare push Odie off the table! That would be inhumane and cruel. - Then YOU push him off. POKE! - That was kind of fun. ga840222 -- Why do you follow me around, conscience? If I don't you won't be very nice. - If I put this cork in your bottle would you be trapped? Yes, but that wouldn't be very nice. - That wasn't very nice. ga840223 -- Now that my conscience is trapped in this bottle, I can walk away and enjoy myself. - That's okay, go ahead, have fun, don't worry about me. I'll just sit here in the dark...all alone. - You're very good. One of the best. ga840224 -- Let's have some fun, Garfield. Take one step back. Okay. - - I thought consciences were supposed to be nice! I'm on break. ga840225 -- I have my conscience trapped in this bottle. I'll just set it by Jon. - - Get a haircut. ga840226 -- tappity tappity tappity - Good evening, ladies and germs. In our audience tonight is a boy scout delegation from Booga-Booga. Welcome, guys. - I'm dedicating my first song to you. Appropriately enough it's called, "I'm just a boy scouting for ga840226 -- the key to your heart". - HEY! - All right, you Booga-Booga boobs! - If you're going to throw anything, throw money, okay? ...okay. - CLOBBER - Silly me, I forgot the only currency in Booga-Booga is 800-pound chariot wheels. ga840227 -- What a glorious morning! - I could really enjoy a morning like this. - If I could only get this catch out of my back. ga840228 -- I gotta get help for this catch in my back. - Hey, guys. - What we have here is a failure to communicate. ga840229 -- Maybe a good night's sleep will help me get rid of this catch in my back. - - Maybe not. ga840301 -- I hate having a catch in my back. I get no sleep, I get no food, I get no exercise. - - Don't tip the cat over, Odie. I get no respect. ga840302 -- Well hello there, Mr. Stuck-Up. - Having a catch in one's back does tend to give one an air of sophistication... - I could get to like this. ga840303 -- Let's take care of that catch in your back, Garfield. - CRINK! - There you go, old buddy. Thanks, I think. ga840304 -- Hey, look! Odie! - It snowed last night! - Ha ha, so you boys want to play in the snow, huh? - First you'll have to wear your nice, warm pet sweaters. - And your wool caps and mittens and mufflers and booties. - There you go, boys. - Having ga840304 -- fun yet? Ha ha ha, wheee. ga840305 -- Who's that painting at my door? - HONK HONK - Oh, good morning, Odie. HONK ga840306 -- YAWN - GASP! - Waking up to my own bad breath is bad enough, but someone else's is unbearable. ga840307 -- I am proud to be a pet. Pets lend a touch of elegance to a home. SLUP SLUP - - I am proud to be a cat. SLUP SLUP ga840308 -- Okay, get revved up there, Odie. - GO! - I love toys that don't need batteries. ga840309 -- - crinkle - May I have some of that candy bar? Here, take it. ga840310 -- - I declare this steak the sovereign property of Garfield, the cat! - I've never had my dinner annexed before. And you may never see it alive again. ga840311 -- - SMACK Let's play! - Leave me alone, Garfield. Let's play! Let's play! - Oh, okay, we'll play. - TICKLE! TICKLE! TICKLE! TICKLE! HA! HA! HEE! HO! HEE! HEE! - OUCH! - I'm through playing now. ga840312 -- Hey, Garfield, we're going to the farm to visit dad and mom this week. - Goodo. I need a change of surroundings. I was getting bored with this city life. - It will be nice to be bored in the country for a change. ga840313 -- It's great to be back on the farm, Garfield. Nothing ever changes. - The same old surroundings, the same old room... - The same old chores. The same old manure. ga840314 -- This pastoral scene is not exactly intellectually stimulating. - Read any good books lately? Oink. - "Oink," he says. I rest my case. "Oink" in the existential sense, of course. ga840315 -- Doc, do you ever regret that you stayed on the farm while I went to the city to live in the lap of luxury? - Not really. Dad will probably will the farm to me, and I'll sell the acreage at a huge profit and retire while young. - Need a hired ga840315 -- hand? Give me a resume and three good references. And mom doesn't count. ga840316 -- Beautiful sunset, isn't it, dad? Purtyer than a little red wagon goin' up a hill. - What does that mean? - Oh, it's just something you city boys expect us farmers to say. How true. ga840317 -- Garfield and I must be leaving now, mom. Stay, stay! I just baked some pies. - We gotta go. Come on, Garfield. - Say what, stranger? ga840318 -- WHEW! - Today I am going to cure Garfield of his gluttony. - Go to it, boy! - He's either going to get sick eating all that food, or he's going to burst trying. MUNCH SMACK SLURP - Are you going to want the rest of that hamburger? ga840319 -- AWK! - I love chasing birds. - Except when they do that. ga840320 -- BONK! Rats! - Double rats! - And, of course, tripe rats. ga840321 -- Shoo! - Flies and I have a lot in common... - You can't keep either of us away from food. ga840322 -- I gotta beat that fly to my food! - I WIN! - You lose, fella. POO ga840323 -- - WHEW - BOO! ga840324 -- * - REARRR! - It's the old "bring in the reinforcements" trick. ga840325 -- - - All right, you guys! Outside! - - - Where were you guys raised, in a barn? Next time use the door. - CRASH! Thank you. ga840326 -- GARFIELD! I CAN'T STRAIGHTEN UP! - ZIP - Ha, ha, my tie was caught in my zipper. Help me. ga840327 -- Gimme those cookies. - HIYA! HUT! KONK! PUNT! - I'd turn her in, but who'd admit to being mangled by a girl scout? ga840328 -- Rise and shine, Garfield! - Garfield? - clunk clunk Time to wash my blankey, what say? ga840329 -- Be a good boy and fetch the morning paper, Garfield. - Yes, master. I am your beck and call, master. - Why can't I have a normal house cat like everyone else? ga840330 -- I need a brain for my master. - - A brain, I need a brain for my master. ga840331 -- Ah, coffee. - - Being a hunchback is going to take some getting used to. ga840401 -- This is it, boys. - Tonight we find out who the phantom ripper is. - He's stepping out the shadows now. - Oh, no! It's...it's you! AYIEEE! - Good movie. click - Who was he? - We thought YOU were watching. SMACK GRRRRR ga840402 -- It's Monday out there. I feel it in the air. I hate mondays. - I'm sure the world will end on a Monday...at least I hope it does. - It would be a shame to end the world right before a weekend. ga840403 -- Pooky, where are you? Oh, no! My teddy bear is missing. - This has the makings of a classic mystery. I already have some prime suspects. - It's easy when you live with a rogue's gallery. ga840404 -- I suspect Odie of kidnapping Pooky. Watch him crumble under my keen questioning. - Where were you on the evening of April 1?! - What am I doing? Odie doesn't even know where he is now. ga840405 -- There must be clue to Pooky's disappearance here somewhere... - Aha! could this be a telltale trail of teddy bear hair? - Even if it isn't, that was a pretty nifty bit of alliteration. ga840406 -- Hello, what's this? Just as my teddy bear disappears, this sack mysteriously appears... - Something smells fishy here. - ga840407 -- Aha! Jon! It was you who kidnapped Pooky! - Obviously, sensing I was hot on his trail and fearing my wrath, he's decided to return Pooky and throw himself on the mercy of the court. - I had your teddy bear cleaned, Garfield. Sigh...thank you. ga840408 -- - - * AROOOOOOO * - tappity tappity clap clap clap - I like you, Garfield. - And I like myself, Arlene. I can take a hint. - Like myself when I'm with you that is. ga840409 -- It's nearly midnight on a Monday. - I can't believe it! Nothing bad has happened to me all day. - COO-COO! ga840410 -- Watch this. It's the old rubber bone gag. - SHOOP! - Practical jokes are wasted on the stupid. ga840411 -- SQUIT - BLAT - Unnnngh! Help! Help! The alien is sucking my brain dry! Garfield has raised playing with food to an art form ga840412 -- Garfield, I think it's time we grow up, be more responsible, take a more mature outlook on life... Hee hee - I don't think you're taking me seriously! I'm sorry. - I don't know what came over me. ga840413 -- Stop begging, Garfield. You may have any food that falls on the floor. - - I hate you. I can live with that. ga840414 -- Hee-hee, snort. - WAH-HA-HA! - Okay! Okay! I'm awake! ga840415 -- Look out, world. - I feel invincible today. - FOOD! I CRAVE FOOD! - That took nearly three seconds, Jon. We'll do better next time, won't we? - I shall take my morning stroll mow. Be a good boy and alert the media. - Hold up, traffic. Here ga840415 -- comes Garfield. Where were you? Learning that some things can't be intimidated. ga840416 -- - - I'm sorry. Did I bring you down, old buddy? Like a rock, old buddy. ga840417 -- I'm bored, Garfield. - I'm tired of seeing the same old scenery. Do you know what I mean? Not really. - At least you get to see the scenery. ga840418 -- Garfield, there's only one way to shed this shroud of gray we wear... - There's only one path out of this valley of gloom. There's only one sure bet to beat the boreds. - Gather your things. We're going to vacation! I'm packed. Let's go! ga840419 -- How much are the plane tickets? ...uh, do you have anything cheaper? - That could be fatal! - I don't think they want out business, Garfield. Where's the competition for the low rollers these days? ga840420 -- Thank you very much. - Garfield, I had to book our vacation all third-class. I hope you don't mind. That's okay. - It's still better than this fourth-class existence at home. ga840421 -- Let's blow this joint, Garfield. - Hang on! - Where did you go? To give the refrigerator a goodbye kiss. ga840422 -- Thank heavens for these reduced airline rates, Garfield. No frills, no food, no class. - Welcome to Inversion Layer Airlines, sir. In what section are you traveling? Uh...third class. - What section, sir? Third class. - I can't hear you! ga840422 -- THIRD CLASS! - In the back with the rest of the slime, you vermin! - Why can't I get any respect, Garfield? In this game, you must BUY respect, my friend. ga840423 -- I haven't seen a stewardess in hours, Garfield. - I'm going to find out what's going on around here. - Excuse me sir. How's the service on this airline? ga840424 -- Hey! We're getting hungry here in third-class! What's to eat?! - BLAT! BLAT! - Hardtack and swill. Yum-yum. CONK! CONK! ga840425 -- Nyah! Nyah! Nyah! Nyah! - Mikey, it's not nice to make fun of people, even though they ARE traveling in third-class. - NO! GARFIELD, NO! LET ME HURT 'EM JUST A LITTLE BIT! ga840426 -- - I know this is just the third-class exit from the plane, Garfield... - But you'd think they'd give us a ladder or something. ga840427 -- I would like your cheapest room for me and my cat. Yes, sir. That would be the Jack Benny suite, sir. - Well, Garfield, there's the bed and the bathroom's down the hall. Any questions? Yes... - Where are YOU going to sleep? ga840428 -- All I have to do is unpack, Garfield, and we'll be ready for some rest and relaxation. - ARRRRGH! NOT ANOTHER PET TO TAKE CARE OF! - I don't think I can take any more surprises. Then don't look at what Odie did to your sport jacket. ga840429 -- - You guys have a good time, but no digging in the sand, if you know what I mean? - Hey, baby! What's your sign? - Careful, buddy. She's MY girl. - Aw, go pound sand, you little twerp - - Well...I guess we are to do as he says, not as he ga840429 -- does. ga840430 -- Hey, Garfield! Are you ready to go play golf? - - Aren't you coming? On second thought, I think I'd rather stay in the room and watch the sink back-up ga840501 -- ODIE! GET AWAY FROM THAT TREE! GARFIELD! GET OUT OF THAT SAND TRAP! - Would you mind observing proper golf etiquette there, mister? - I'm sorry, but my pets are driving me nuts. It's the outfit I'm talking about. ga840502 -- CRACK! - Oh, no! I hit an old lady in the head and knocked her out cold! - What should I do, Garfield? I'd straighten that left arm and turn that right hand over more. ga840503 -- - ROWR! - GARFIELD! WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THAT SAND TRAP? Squatting on a sandburg, thank you. ga840504 -- Well, boys, it's been a nice vacation, but it's time to head home. - Good heavens! What happened to you guys?! - Odie discovered how to dial room service. Burp. ga840505 -- Here we are! Home sweet home! - ARRRGH! - OKAY; WHO LEFT THE FAUCET RUNNING?! I didn't want my sponge collection to dry out. ga840506 -- - MY BED! ODIE'S SLEEPING IN MY BED! - This calls for a good stomping! - STOMP STOMP STOMP - - - So much for my french bread and olive collection. ga840507 -- Some people wonder why I hate mondays. - Maybe I'm fatalistic. - But I suspect I'm just stupid. ga840508 -- scratch scratch scratch - WHAM! - I'm not very fond of Tuesday, either. ga840509 -- I am absolutely not getting out of bed today. - Hey, Garfield. There's a spider on your blanket. - I keep forgetting we live in a generation without absolutes. ga840510 -- I'll teach him to be a spider! STOMP STOMP STOMP STOMP STOMP - He won't have the guts to do that again. - STOMP STOMP Better safe than sorry. STOMP STOMP STOMP ga840511 -- Look at this. - A cat stroking his owner! - Why so affectionate, Garfield? I just squashed a spider. ga840512 -- - SLUG - Big day. ga840513 -- - Fetch the stick, Odie! - - - ga840514 -- I'm lonely. I think I'll see if I can find Arlene. - Hi there. You two-timing swine! - What happened? ga840515 -- Hi, Arlene. DON'T SPEAK TO ME, YOU CAD, I SAW YOU WITH THAT OTHER WOMAN! - Oh come on now, do I look like the kind of guy who could easily attract women? I suppose you're right. And just what do you mean by that? ga840516 -- Here is your dinner, my dear. BLAT - Is this food fresh? Ha ha ha, why of course! - This is only yesterday's newspaper. ga840517 -- Aren't you going to join me for dinner, Garfield? Uh...no thank you. I'm on a diet. - A diet?! How long have you been on a diet? - Oh, for about 18 seconds now. ga840518 -- Ho hum... - Why do we see each other? It beats being lonely. - I was hoping for something more romantic. That's way down the list. ga840519 -- - Is our date over? Did it begin? - Some women don't appreciate us strong, silent types. ga840520 -- tappity tappity tappity - Good evening, folks. Here's a joke...what did the beaver say when he heard the chain saw? - CHUKONG! - Chirp Chirp They're playing my song. - All of your mothers wear army boots. - KONG CRASH! BAP! - Why do you do ga840520 -- it, Garfield? I loooove the attention. ga840521 -- I hate Monday. That's the day people go back to work, kids go back to school... - - And diets begin. ga840522 -- Garfield, you're too fat. I can't help it. - I have a slow metabolism. - A reeeeeeal slow metabolism. ga840523 -- Do you know what I hate about diets? - Eating is social. - But when you diet, you diet alone. ga840524 -- I think I have a way out of this diet. - I know I'm too fat for a cat... - But, I'm just right for a bumblebee! ga840525 -- How goes the diet, Garfield? - ROAR - What was that?! That was my stomach, you twit. ga840526 -- - AYIEEEEE! - Everyone's a critic. cough weeze ga840527 -- * - Oh no! - I've tangle wit that dog before. - If I take my eyes off him, he'll clobber me! - I can't stand it. - WHONGO! - Why did you do that? I hit him back first. ga840528 -- I hate mondays. Garfield, I don't know why you hate mondays so much. - BLAT! - SEE?!!! ga840529 -- Good morning, Garfield. - I made your coffee just like you like it. - Strong. ga840530 -- Oh shucks, I just spilled the only cup of coffee we have in the house. - - ga840531 -- * ROWR * - WHOCK! - Garfield, where did the flowers come from? Well, why don't we just read the note? ga840601 -- You like to scratch things, don't you, Garfield? Does a chicken like to peck? Sure I do! - Good! Scratch my back. - NO CLAWS! NO CLAWS! If I didn't use claws, I wouldn't be scratching, now would I? ga840602 -- Scratch higher, Garfield. - Higher! - Get off the curtains, Garfield. I was just following instructions. ga840603 -- grrrr - RRRRRR Jon's best shoes! - Sometimes Odie makes me so angry, I could just scream. - - - - ARRRRRGH! ga840604 -- Good morning, boys and girls. Good morning, uncle Roy. - I love you just the way you are. I love you too, uncle Roy. - I also love mondays. Stick it in your ear, uncle Roy. ga840605 -- Good morning, boys and girls. I love you just the way you are. Everybody loves uncle Roy. - You are kind, thoughtful, obedient and considerate. - Not to mention intelligent, witty and charming. We all know uncle Roy is a liar, but we don't ga840605 -- care. ga840606 -- Here we are in a real factory, boys and girls. Let's see what we can learn... - ARRRRRGH! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! - SHUT THIS **!* THING OFF. Uncle Roy is learning never to wear loose clothing around big machinery. ga840607 -- Good morning, boys and girls. You are probably wondering where my dog, Bob, is this morning. - Wellll...it seems old Bob bit Mr. Blue Jeans the mailman once too often... - So Bob has decided to move to a local research facility to pursue a ga840607 -- career as a laboratory animal. And I'm Frank Sinatra. ga840608 -- Let's play pretend, boys and girls. Let's pretend it's contract negotiation time for uncle Roy... - And there are big green monsters who want to take uncle Roy off the air... - And the only thing that can save uncle Roy are letters saying how ga840608 -- much you love uncle Roy. I hate to see a grown man grovel. ga840609 -- Looks who's come to visit, boys and girls. It's Jerry the Cat. Hi, Jerry. Hi, uncle Roy. - How are you? I'm fine, How are you? Uncle Roy is getting pretty bizarre. - How's your mother? She's fine. Who'd be dumb enough to believe there is a ga840609 -- talking cat? ga840610 -- Hey, Jon, Look at this! - Hey, Jon. Watch me! - Jon doesn't pay any attention to me anymore. Watch this. - Hey, Jon! - Hey, Jon! - Hey, Garfield? What, Jon? - I don't pay any attention to me anymore. ga840611 -- - - Don't you dare. I don't know what you're talking about. ga840612 -- Every morning for nearly six years now, I fix raisin toast for Garfield. - He loves his raisin toast. - What's in the drawer? A six-year supply of raisins. ga840613 -- * crack - OH, YUK! - It's not often you see a yolk with a beak. ga840614 -- How would you like your bacon prepared, Garfield? Let's shoot for recognizable. - Jon is a terrible cook. He could ruin cereal. - Bacon flambe, yum yum. ga840615 -- An interesting thing about food... - One minute it may be haute cuisine. - But the instant you put it into the sink, it becomes garbage. ga840616 -- Here's your cereal, Garfield. - What's the matter? Aren't you hungry? Not really. - I think one of the flakes just moved. ga840617 -- - I'm going to kick Odie off this table. - And he'll probably sprain something and have to go to the vet. - And I'll get lonely without him. - And Jon will be angry without me. - And the humane society will want to lynch me. - But nobody said ga840617 -- life was a rose garden. ga840618 -- I can't believe I turn six years old tomorrow. Some cats say, "Life begins at six," but I don't buy that. - Old age may take its toll on some cats, but it's not going to happen to me! I'm going to do something about it! - Right after my nap. ga840619 -- Happy birthday, Garfield! I got you a rubber chicken. They're lots of fun! We'll see about that. - SMACK SPLUT - Chicken, you and I are going to have some good times. ga840620 -- You need a name, fella. Let's see...what do you name a rubber chicken? - rrrrr - "Stretch"! ga840621 -- peck peck peck - SMACK! - I'll have some ham and eggs, and my friend, Stretch, will have a bowl of rubber bands. ga840622 -- peck peck peck - STOP PECKING ME WITH THAT RUBBER CHICKEN! - Aw, look, you just hurt Stretch's feelings. He brings out the worst in me. ga840623 -- Pooky, I would like you to meet Stretch, my rubber chicken. - Quite frankly, Pooky and Stretch don't have a lot of personality. - But you have to trade off something when you surround yourself with good listeners. ga840624 -- - YAWN It's bed-bye time again. - Tonight I think I'll take a deep breath, slowly close my eyes and savor the heavy feeling of sleep gradually overtaking my body. PAT! PAT! PAT! - Then again it would be fun to have a cup of coffee and toss ga840624 -- and turn for a couple of hours, then sleep till noon. - Or maybe I'll run around the block, collapse into bed exhausted and fall asleep instantly. - Or I could watch the all-night movies on TV until my eyelids get so heavy I couldn't possibly ga840624 -- hold them open any longer. - Sigh...so much sleeping to do and so few nights. ga840625 -- Garfield, I think you're too mean to Odie. - I never want to see you hit him again. Oh, very well. - KONK! ga840626 -- I'm going to the store, Garfield. If you lay a paw on Odie, I'll spank you. - - BOING ga840627 -- Garfield, I swear you've done everything to Odie a cat could do to a dog. Au contraire. - PLINK - Never underestimate me. ga840628 -- Hey, Odie! I found your nose! - Let me put it on for you, pal. squik squik - Very nice. I like you as a rat terrier. ga840629 -- Well, well, well. I see you're eating my food, Odie. Now what are going to do with you? - We are going to kick you into next week! That's what we're going to do! PUNT - Where's Odie? Somewhere over saturday. ga840630 -- Lunch isn't the same without Odie. He always slips up behind me, barks loudly and makes me fall into my food. - I guess I 'll just have to make do. - BLUT ga840701 -- - I believe you're gaining weight, Garfield. I believe your eyeballs are shrinking. - Look at that soft belly. That's just water retention. - Now why do you suppose you're looking larger? An optical illusion? - The older you get', the bigger ga840701 -- you get. Bigger-boned maybe. - You're fat, Garfield. I am not fat! - My center of gravity is just getting lower. ga840702 -- I have this nagging feeling I'm forgetting something. - WHUMP! - Oh yes, I forgot I kicked Odie into next week, last week. ga840703 -- Pooky loves me, I can tell. - He doesn't talk, he doesn't walk, he doesn't think. - a little nothing goes a long way. ga840704 -- I'm working up a routine for the fence tonight, Pooky. Tell me what you think of it. - I knew a teddy bear who was so ugly, even the tide wouldn't take it out. - BLAT! ga840705 -- Good evening, ladies and germs. I'd like you to meet Pooky, my gag writer. - SPLAT - Welcome to the show biz, kid. ga840706 -- Jump through the hoop, Pooky. - Hey, Garfield, what's happening? I'm pretending to teach Pooky tricks. - ga840707 -- Butterflies are versatile. They can caress the air. - They can kiss the dew from the flowers. - And they can embed themselves in radiators. FWAP! ga840708 -- scritch scritch - I'll be darned. These labels are loose. - * - It's the old "Cats get the tuna while the owner get the cat food" gag. - - Surprise, Garfield! I fixed us a tuna noodle casserole. - Oh, well, I guess a half a surprise is better ga840708 -- than none at all. ga840709 -- Garfield, I know you hate mondays. - But everything that could possibly happen to you has already happened. - Au contraire, power failure breath. ga840710 -- Since we can't watch TV during a power failure, Garfield, what say we listen to the radio? - Ha ha! Do I feel stupid. That's because you ARE stupid. CLICK CLICK - How about a game of cards? No, thanks. I'm just going to sit here and cry for a ga840710 -- while. ga840711 -- I've learned something from this power failure, Garfield. - When you are deprived of your eyesight, isn't it amazing how much keener your other senses become? - Huh? ga840712 -- Don't worry, Garfield. The power failure may have spoiled the food in the refrigerator... - But we still have lots of canned goods. - Now where's our electric opener? ARRRGH! ga840713 -- Hey, Garfield, as long as the power is off, we might as well go out. - I have my bowling ball. Let's go bowling. - Get your fingers out of my eyes and your thumb out of my mouth, and I'll consider it. ga840714 -- - Great! The power's back on! I can't think of anything worse than a power failure. - How about two power failures? ga840715 -- Z Z - BABOOM! - SHOOP ZOOM - Allright you guys, get out of here. It's only a little thunderstorm. - Pets...they're just like kids. - CRACK KABOOM! - Urf! Give me some room, will you? Hey! Your feet are cold! ga840716 -- And now, a word from our sponsor. - Hey, America. Here's a cat food we bet your cat will love. - You're on. ga840717 -- Good morning, old buddy. - ARRRGH! That's only a piece of lint, Garfield. - It sure does a great spider impression. ga840718 -- BARK! BARK! BARK! - Odie isn't really stupid. BONK - He's just chased one too many parked cars. ga840719 -- Okay, you turkeys, I'm prepared for anything. - * AROOO * - CRASH! ga840720 -- Garfield, if you mess with my new fish, you'll regret it. - What's so regrettable about a little seafood snack? - Jon's going to pay for this. ga840721 -- - Well, well, Odie. I see you derive great pleasure from other's misfortune. - So do I! SNAP! ga840722 -- - Garfield, where are yoooooou? - Get out of the breadbox, Garfield! - Get out from under the chair, Garfield! - Garfield, you know I hate it when you hide from me! - Oh, well. I'll find him sooner or later. There's only so many places a fat ga840722 -- slob like him can hide. - Get out of the bookcase, Garfield. ga840723 -- You sleep too much, Garfield. - Sometimes I do feel bad about sleeping so much. - What with all the insomniacs in China. ga840724 -- What Odie needs is a good kick. - Uh-oh! Nap attack! - I don't even want to know. Z ga840725 -- Z - Z SNORT! SNORT! Z ga840726 -- Z - Z Whimper - No, Odie, Garfield isn't dead. He's just a hardcore sleeper. ga840727 -- Are you going to sleep all day, Garfield? Let me check my social calendar. - Let's see...there's high tea with the Queen of England tomorrow, but nothing today. - Z Ask a stupid question... ga840728 -- YAWN What a great night's sleep! - I'm ready to attack a fresh new day. - Good evening, Garfield. What's on the late movie? ga840729 -- Good morning, Garfield. I'm hungry. - How would you like your egg prepared? I would like it hatched. - Raise it to young chickenhood on a diet of cracked corn, barley and sorghum molasses. - Then barbecue the dude. ga840729 -- I should think a steak sauce and honey glaze would be nice. - - Scrambled? Scrambled. ga840730 -- There's only one way to beat the heat today. - Where are you going, Garfield? To the beach. - Hello, beach. ga840731 -- There's only one thing I hate about the beach. - PONK! - It's always so crowded. ga840801 -- GREAT! - - Surf's up! ga840802 -- Garfield, I know you like to have fun... - But you look ridiculous. - Stand aside there, fella. Here comes my next wave. ga840803 -- Okay, everyone out of the pool! I'm going swimming. - You! the one with the whistle-out! - I don't need a lifeguard. ga840804 -- * - Rats. - I thought you were going swimming. The water was polluted. ga840805 -- Hello, what have we here? - I think I'll draw something. - Hey, Garfield! This is a great drawing! Do you know what his means?! - A cat who can draw! We'll make millions. You'll be famous! - We'll tour the world! Live out a suitcase! You'll do ga840805 -- thousands of drawings! - SLASH! - Why did you do that? Suddenly, life got too complicated. ga840806 -- NO! NO! NO! DON'T MAKE ME DO IT! - ARRRGH! SOMEONE HELP ME! - Sometimes it's hard to fight primal instincts. ga840807 -- Hello, lunch. - - Those bird's nets are deceptively large. ga840808 -- Why do I do it? Why do I climb up trees when I can't climb down? - The neighborhood always turns out to see me. Then the fire department comes to get me. Then my picture ends up in the newspaper. - I just answered my own question. ga840809 -- Oh good! Here comes a fireman to save me! - Terrific. Why do I always get the fat ones? - And the ones who are sensitive about their weight? ga840810 -- I'm getting sleepy. - If birds can sleep in trees, so can I. - Z ga840811 -- If I truly believe I'm a bird, I might be able to flap my arms and fly out of this tree. - I'm a bird! I'm a bird! - I hope birds' bones knit quickly. ga840812 -- Ballet slippers? Uh-oh, Jon's getting weird on me. - See the ballet slippers I'm giving my niece, Garfield? I wish I had ballet slippers. - I'll let this niece has never been on pointe. - Or done a jete. - Or a pirouette. - POW! - What ga840812 -- happened? I had a ballet slipper blow out on a bourree. ga840813 -- - WHAP! - Sometime, somewhere, when you are least expecting it...Monday strikes. ga840814 -- What's wrong with this picture? - There's no food in your bowl, Garfield. Give the man a cigar! Fill it up, turkey. - I hate it when lower life forms are condescending to me. ga840815 -- I've been taken! There was only one kernel of popcorn in this whole bag. - Oh, well, one's better than nothing. - POP! ga840816 -- Good morning, fern. How about a drink of water, little friend? - How nice, Garfield, I'm glad to see you take an interest in my fern. - I'm fattening it for slaughter. ga840817 -- Where is it written that humans must give cats milk in saucers?! Why not in cups or bowls or pans? - SPLASH - SEE?! I think Garfield is trying to tell me something. ga840818 -- What is it, Garfield? - Pick me up. Too fat to hop on the table, huh? - One of these days, I'll learn. ga840819 -- - - SCRIK - SLUCK - SHLONK - TUCK - I love rubber pets. ga840820 -- I'm bored, bored, bored. I need something to spice up my week. - THAT'S IT. - The caped avenger returns. ga840821 -- Uh-oh. - RUN FOR COVER, ODIE! - Make way for the caped avenger. - Garfield is fantasizing again. ga840822 -- The caped avenger seeks out evil wherever it may lurk. - - As long as it isn't in dark scary places. ga840823 -- The caped avenger will now descend upon an old archenemy. - BLAT! - The caped avenger forgot to correct for crosswind. ga840824 -- Be careful, mere mortal man! That food may be poisoned! The caped avenger will taste it for you. - - It's okay. (burp) Enjoy. ga840825 -- The caped avenger pauses to wash his cape. - - The hankied avenger plods on. ga840826 -- Hmmm. - This ladder gives me a great idea. - I'm going to glue my feet to the ceiling. - And blow Jon's mind. - This is going to be fun. - Unless, of course, Jon doesn't see me. - Unless, of course, Jon goes to bed. ga840827 -- Guess what, Garfield! We're going to the farm this week. - Whoopty-doo. Going to the farm is like going to the zoo... - Where they eat everything but th cats. ga840828 -- Dad! Mom! - Jon Boy! Jonny! - I wish they'd call me by my real name. You're right, dummy. ga840829 -- Doc Boy! Don't call me Doc Boy! - What's with him, dad? Ever since he started wearing long pants, he's hated the be called "Boy". - How long has that been? Since last thursday. A late bloomer. ga840830 -- I know we're brothers, Doc Boy, but do you think we've grown apart since I moved to the city? Don't call me Doc Boy. - How would you like it if I called you a city slicker? I wouldn't like that. - DOC BOY! DOC BOY! DOC BOY! SLICKER! SLICKER! ga840830 -- SLICKER! Boys! Boys! Boys! ga840831 -- Well, Garfield, this week you learned where bacon comes from. Bacon comes from a pig. - And you learned where milk comes from. Milk comes from the udder of a cow. - Would you like to know where eggs come from? I would as soon that remain a ga840831 -- mystery. ga840901 -- Do you know what worries me, Garfield? - My grandfather was bald, my dad is bald and my brother is balding. Not to worry. - You are probably adopted. ga840902 -- Garfield, when we get to the campsite, what's the first thing you'd like to do? Go home. - Here we are, boys. We're camping miles from nowhere. I'd say we're closer than that. - CLICK - Oh no! Odie locked himself in the car! The poor little ga840902 -- guy could suffocate! I think I'm starting to enjoy camping. - Unlock the door, boy. Unlock the door. Breathe deeply, boy. - Something just occurred to me. Could it be...? Could it be, Odie isn't as stupid as he looks? ga840903 -- Pwoooock, pwock, pwock, pwock. - - Don't look, Stretch! It's not a pretty sight! ga840904 -- Pwoooock, pwock, pwock, pwock. - PUKUCK! PUKUCK! PUKUCK! - My rubber friend, Stretch, objects to your cannibalistic ways. I'd like to have just one meal in peace. ga840905 -- Garfield, do you know how silly you look carrying that stupid rubber chicken around all the time? - FFFFF - Uh-oh, fella. Now you did it. You made Stretch mad. ga840906 -- Are you in there, Garfield? - There ain't nobody here but us chickens. - I WILL NOT SPEAK TO YOUR RUBBER CHICKEN! Think of Stretch as my social secretary. ga840907 -- Here, Stretch, have an apple. - - STOMP! POO! DONG! ga840908 -- Okay, guys, get on your mark, get st, go! - - Competition is apparently not a driving force in their lives. ga840909 -- Hello, I'm Nermal, the... "The world's cutest kitten." I know, I know. - Why, hello, Nermal. Aren't you cute. - I want some attention, too. BONK - Aw, poor little guy! - Well, two can play the sympathy game. - CRASH! - That was one of my best ga840909 -- plates. That was one of my best heads. ga840910 -- I love your purr, Garfield. Purrr - I wish there were a way to get the purr without the cat. Purrr - But I guess you have to take the bad with the good. You're treading on thin ice, fella. ga840911 -- Ready for a gourmet meal, Garfield? - WHAM! - I hate spiders. ga840912 -- One nice thing about confiding in pets is that they are non-judgmental. - Garfield, I got a speeding ticket today. - SMACK! That was a stupid thing to do. ga840913 -- - Why, thank you, Garfield! - PSHHH ga840914 -- Hee, hee, there's more than one way to skin a cat. - WHIRRRRR! How prophetic. ga840915 -- Rats, Garfield fell asleep in the middle of the door. - Have you ever tried to pick up a sleeping cat? - It's impossible. ga840916 -- * - Good morning, Garfield. Good morning, Jon. My rubber chicken, Stretch, needs a bath too. - SPLOOSH! - Sign here for this package, mister. - PAPER! BONK - HEY, WORLD! I'M TAKING A BATH! COME ON IN AND WATCH! I'll be right back. I'm sure ga840916 -- the man's joking, Reba. ga840917 -- - - It's diet time, Garfield. I was afraid of that. ga840918 -- In order to properly diet, you must change your eating habits, Garfield. - You must look at food differently. - Ha ha ha, Garfield. ga840919 -- Let's measure your tummy, Garfield. - When you take four inches of your waist, you may go off your diet. - And that doesn't count. ga840920 -- You may have coffee on your diet, Garfield. - Thank goodness. - This diet isn't going to be as bad as I thought. ga840921 -- For once in my life, a diet worked. - I'm going to treat myself to a potato chip. - poomp! Rats. ga840922 -- - Let's see how I did on my diet this week. Whimper. Oh, shut up. ga840923 -- Good morning, sunshine, poke poke poke - Hey, Garfield, what's all this junk in your bed? - This isn't junk, this is my stuff. - I use this brass lizard to scratch my back. - And here is some extra cat hair for your food, and a double corncob ga840923 -- that is a family heirloom. - And this is my bean-filled whack-bonk. What does that do? - WHACK! BONK ga840924 -- It's Monday morning. A cold. gray, dizzy Monday morning. - Some dude with a trumpet is wailin' some blues on the radio and my breakfast is cold. * * - It's all so perfectly depressing I can't wipe this smile off my face. * ga840925 -- Hold it right there. I always want to remember you like this. - As the kind, benevolent provider. - Trying to poison me with that cat food! ga840926 -- munch smack slurp - Uh-oh! - Quickfood. ga840927 -- - BARK! BLUT! - Twenty years from now I'm going to look back on this and LAAAAAAUGH. rowr fffft!! ga840928 -- What are you doing with your teddy bear, Garfield? - Pooky and I are having lunch. We do everything together. I swear. - You cats have the strangest habits. ga840929 -- Oh, come on, Garfield. The cat food isn't that bad. - Then let's see how YOU like it! - mmm good. YOU LIE! ga840930 -- - - - - - - I thought fat people were jolly. ga841001 -- Look at all those poor saps trudging to work on a Monday morning. - Ha ha ha, you poor saps, you have to go to work and I don't 'cause I'm a cat! - If I weren't me, I wouldn't like me very much. ga841002 -- It's a real rat race out there. - Everybody striving to get ahead. - I think I'll go take a nap and fall off the pace. ga841003 -- - SUCK - He's so lazy, I could just cry. Burp ga841004 -- I got you something special, Garfield. - It's too light for food, and you can't wrap sleep. - It can't be THAT special. ga841005 -- Good night, Garfield. - *CLICK* Don't let the thing in the closet get you. - Don't do that to me! ga841006 -- I think I'll try a two-and-a-half nap attack in the pike position with a half twist. - - I'll settle for a belly-flop. Z ga841007 -- - - - - HEY, HUBERT! REBA! COME HERE, QUICK! - Play cowboy and horsy, boys. Do a handstand, Garfield. Balance on Garfield, Odie. Sad. He should get out of the house more. ga841008 -- This feels like a great day to spend in bed. - Hop up, Garfield. We're gooing on a picnic! Give the bugs and snakes my regrets. I ain't going. - I'll get you for this, Monday! ga841009 -- What's this? I packed the microwave for our picnic. - Well, I'm leaving it here. - WHA...! If the television stays, I stay. ga841010 -- Wait 'til you taste my cherry pie, Garfield. It's the world's best. - I agree. - 22 million ants can't all be wrong. ga841011 -- The picnic's all set, Garfield. - Did I forget anything? - You forgot the brick for the tablecloth. ga841012 -- That pesky wind won't spoil our picnic now, Garfield. - Where's the mustard? - Under the third rock from the left. ga841013 -- Well, Garfield, the ants ate my cherry pie. The wind blew the food everywhere. DON'T SAY IT! DON'T SAY IT! - What else could possibly go wrong? - You said it! ga841014 -- MUNCH SLURP SMACK GULP - Burp. Oh, boy, I ate too much pizza. Z - SHUFFLE SHUFFLE SHUFFLE - Who are you guys? We are your pizza nightmare. - I'm the pepperoni, and these here are the onions and the anchovies. - - And who are you? I'm the ga841014 -- matto ball you ate three weeks ago. ga841015 -- Good morning, folks! My oh my, it's a beautiful Monday morning out there. - Our weather radar shows clear skies with no rain in sight. - Except over one house in the suburbs. ga841016 -- Our satellite picture shows clouds over the northeast, sunny skies in the southwest... - Traffic backed up on 12th street... - And my little niece, Sally, playing in her sandbox i Texas. Kind of scary, isn't it? ga841017 -- Wuth. - You can always tell when Odie has been eating out of the refrigerator. - He gets his tongue stuck in the ice cube trax. Wuth. ga841018 -- GULP MUNCH SLURP - Why do you eat so much, Garfield? - In a former life I was a sanitary landfill. ga841019 -- Clouds are so interesting. I love to find shapes in them. - There's a chicken cloud, and a hamburger cloud, and a bicycle cloud. - And I do believe that one's a rain cloud. ga841020 -- What do you think of my new frame, Garfield? - ARRRGH! - Thank heavens! For a moment I thought it was a mirror. ga841021 -- - - PUCUCK! - ONE MORE STUNT LIKE THAT AND I'M GOING TO WRING YOUR RUBBER CHICKEN'S NECK! - - I'm sorry I snapped at you, Garfield? Will you forgive me? I forgive you. - SMACK! WHAP! But Stretch doesn't! ga841022 -- Here comes Arlene. She's crazy about me. - Hey, Arlene, what's my most outstanding feature? You're fat. - Did you hear that? She admires me for my body. ga841023 -- Do you love me more than you love food, Garfield? - Do chickens have lips? - No. Bingo. ga841024 -- Aren't you ashamed of that space between your teeth? Of course not! - It's a sign of sensitivity. - I'd be sensitive about it too. I don't know what I see in him. ga841025 -- Don't you just love sunrise, Garfield? The chirping of the birds...the crisp morning air. - The sound of bacon sizzling in the skillet...the smell of fresh brewed coffee. - I get the feeling we're watching two different channels. ga841026 -- Why do you like bachelorhood, Garfield? I can sum it up in a word... - "uncomplicated" - That sounds simple. Simple, that's me. ga841027 -- What is love to you, Garfield? Love is that exhilarating feeling you get when a vision of beauty comes walking to you. - In fact, I just had that experience. When you saw me? - When I saw my mirror this morning. ga841028 -- - - - POO! - - KONK! - The harder you work for something, the more you appreciate it. ga841029 -- Garfield, there's a mouse in the house, and I'm just sick about it. - It chewed the toe out of my sock. - I want you to catch it and kill it. Now I'M sick about it. ga841030 -- Good morning, mouse. Good morning, cat. - Make yourself at home. Gladly. - But first, some house rules. ga841031 -- Hey, cat, gimme a drumstick. Sure. - Enjoy. ga841101 -- What's your name, mouse? OK, gee. I don't think I have a name. - Oh, come on, what do people say when they meet you? - My name is Eek! ga841102 -- We gotta give you a name, mouse. - How about Crusher? How about Bruiser? How about Cat killer? - How about Squeak? I like it. ga841103 -- Here, Squeak, let me strap this key to your back. What's this for? - I don't remember buying you a toy mouse, Garfield. - Got the picture? You're a genius! ga841104 -- - A dimly lit street corner at midnight. This puts me in the mood for some snappy patter. - Hey, good-lookin!. What's happening? Who are you? - Names aren't important. Some call me a soldier of fortune, some call me a renaissance man. You can ga841104 -- call me "Major". I love men in uniform. - What say we go to Rick's Cafe Americain for a soda pop? I'm with you, big boy. - Here's lookin' at you, sweetheart. SMACK! Rats. I think I chucked her chin a little hard. ga841105 -- Hide! Here comes my owner! - Why are we hiding? Jon wants me to eat you and I don't want to. - You're so nice! Thanks for thinking of me. I was thinking of me. ga841106 -- Okay, Squeak, here's the game plan. Every now and then, you show up in front of Jon and dance around until I appear on the scene and chase you away. - In return, you get a nice home to live in, and I get to keep my job. - This is a strange ga841106 -- world we live in. You gotta play by the rules. ga841107 -- Here's your cat food, Garfield. - A MOUSE! - That must be the surprise at the bottom of the box. ga841108 -- Hey, Squeak, I found a great place for you to live! - Jon will never think to look for you in this old log cabin. - Nice, huh? Is it in a good school system? ga841109 -- Thanks for the house, Garfield. A man needs a place to call his own. This is great! Don't mention it, kid. - - ga841110 -- Listen carefully, Squeak. This is a mousetrap. Never, NEVER touch the tab in the center of it. - You mean, this little tab here? - This boy does not take direction well. Hey! That hurt! ga841111 -- - - WAH HA HA HA! - What a great sundae! Nothing can spoil my day. - SCRATCH SCRATCH - OH NO! MONDAY IS COMING! ga841112 -- GARFIELD! COME HERE! - "Garfield" this, "Garfield" tah. I'm sick of my name. - HEY, FLEABAG! COME HERE! Then again: "Garfield" does have a certain ring on it. ga841113 -- OH NO! A FLEA! I'M GETTING YOU A FLEA COLLAR, GARFIELD. Let's not be too hasty here. - Look at those distinctive yellow and green markings there. - This flea is a member of a rare species of vegetarians. ga841114 -- Well, there's your new flea collar, Garfield. - Wait a minute, there's a disclaimer on this box. "Warning: while this collar will repel fleas..." - "It has been known to attract sharks." ga841115 -- DON'T TAKE THAT FLEA COLLAR OFF, GARFIELD! Who needs it? - - ga841116 -- You have a pretty grim flea problem there, Odie. - That's not a very strong flea collar. - ga841117 -- Did I ever tell you about my crazy uncle Berle? He thought he was a dog. - The poor guy was always exhausted. - He kept chasing himself up trees. ga841118 -- Can we talk? - I would like to speak to you about how wonderful cats are. - Unlike dogs, they always land on their feet. - They are more calm than dogs. ROWR! - Every movement is a deliberate statement of grace and beauty. - And when it comes ga841118 -- to coordination, they are far superior to dogs. WHAP! - BARK ! BARK! ga841119 -- Doc Boy! How's my favorite little brother? - Oh, things are pretty much the same here, wild parties, good times, the usual... - Uh, you say you're coming to visit? It's put up or shut up time. ga841120 -- What am I going to do, Garfield? My brother is coming to visit from the farm. - He thinks I live life in the fast lane. "Life in the parking lot" is more like it. - I don't know where he got the idea. It was when you told him you were ga841120 -- negotiating movie rights to your diary. ga841121 -- There's my brother now. * DING DONG - Welcome to the big city, doc Boy! Let the good times roll! - Another soda pop? No, I think I'll have some more of that fun-filled popcorn. I'm going to like Doc Boy. ga841122 -- I'm so embarrassed. Doc Boy comes all the way from the farm just to find out what a loser I am. The truth always hurts. - Hey, where are all those "good times" you promised me? What would you like to do? - Let's go to the airport and watch ga841122 -- the airplanes land. Whatever you say, wild man! Jon just got off the hook. ga841123 -- Oh, by the way, Doc Boy, I've fixed us up on a double date. HEY, GREAT! - What's a double date? That's when you and I go on a date together. - Gee, it seems like it would be more fun if some girls came along. There's no hope. ga841124 -- DOC BOY! OUR DATES ARE HERE! - EEEEEEK! - Can we talk? Can we laugh? ga841125 -- Z - SNORT! BLINK BLINK BLINK - Rats! It's 4 A.M. and I'm wide awake. - Fortunately, I know what to do. - CLICK - ARRRRRGH! - If I can't sleep, neither will anyone else. ga841126 -- I wonder who that could be, Doc Boy. DING DONG . Dad! Mom! What are you doing here!? We missed you boys, okay? - A little paint, a few curtains, a woman's touch, this could be nice! My dad, the sentimental fool. My mom, the cliche. ga841127 -- Your visit is such a surprise, mom. When's the last time you and dad went out? We haven't been off the farm since '53. I don't believe that. - Good heavens! What's this? That's an indoor toilet, dad. - WOO-HA! AIN'T SCIENCE SOMETHIN'? FLUSH ga841127 -- NOW I believe it. ga841128 -- - You awake, Jon? click OF COURSE NOT, DAD! IT'S 5 A.M.! WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP? - I GOTTA MILK SOMETHING! I'm leaving. ga841129 -- You forgot this when you left home, Doc Boy. Thanks, mom, I haven't slept a wink without it. - Whatcha got there, Doc Boy? NOTHING! NOTHING! IT'S NOTHING! - Could it be a shred of your old blankie? Careful what you say about blankies, ga841129 -- fella. ga841130 -- Uh, mom...I wouldn't open that if I were you. - EEEK! - SOMETHING IN THERE MOVED! I'm sure it was just an optical illusion. GO ahead, tell her how the lunch meat has evolved into an intelligent life form. ga841201 -- So long, son. We got a run. I miss my cows. Give them my best. - SEE YUH, DOC BOY! THANKS FOR DECORATING MY HOUSE, MOM! - Hello...undecorators? Jon is a man of good taste. ga841202 -- - PILLOW FIGHT! WHAP! - You stay here. I'll be right back. - - AYIEEEEE - WHONGO! - What did you have in that pillow? I know this six-foot chicken. ga841203 -- Garfield, I'm going to a cartoonists' convention, and the motel where I'm staying won't accept pets. - Sorry, Odie. You can't go. - Garfield, YOU are a pet. snap! Rats! I keep forgetting. ga841204 -- I'm leaving for the cartoonists' convention now, Garfield. There's a week's worth of food for you. A week's worth, huh? - - It was more like 11 seconds' worth. ga841205 -- I hope Jon comes back from that convention soon. - I hope I can survive this week on my own. - CLICK I hope this door isn't locked. ga841206 -- What a tragic scenario..."Owner leaves for week...cat locks self out of house...cat starves in front porch". - Hey, wait a minute? I control my destiny! I don't have to starve on the front porch! - "Cat starves in bushes". ga841207 -- As long as I'm locked out of the house, I guess I'll strike out in search of food. - Gee, this neighborhood doesn't look familiar to me. - Oh, no! Where am I? ga841208 -- I gotta figure a way to meet some chicks. - You got a problem there, guy? - Striking manly poses doesn't seem to be doing it. ga841209 -- * - * - Rats! There's an alley full of mean guys waiting to beat me up! - Maybe they won't hurt me if I look mean, too. - Hey! It's working! - - Someday, I'm going to learn precisely where that fine line is, and I'm never going to cross it ga841209 -- again! ga841210 -- Garfield! I'm back from the convention! Where are you, big guy? ...Garfield? - Oh, no! This is terrible! Garfield didn't get locked out or anything, did he, Odie? - Yup. ga841211 -- Hello, Garfield. Do I know you? - Let me give you a hint...sit up straight, Don't talk with your mouth full. Wake up, sleepyhead. - MOM! ga841212 -- It's great seeing you again, mom. Yes, it's been a while. - It seems like only yesterday. - This was your first bed. It HAS been a while. ga841213 -- Mom, I don't recognize this place. I thought I was born in the kitchen of an Italian restaurant. It closed years ago, darling. - It's all gone! Where's the pasta? The people? The pasta? The excitement? The pasta? - You always did love to eat. ga841213 -- Sniff...old habits are hard to break. ga841214 -- Father, this is your grandson, Garfield. He will be staying with us for a while. - If you're going to stay here, boy, you're going to be a mouser like the rest of us. - So this is my grandson and you son, huh? Maybe they switched kittens in ga841214 -- the maternity ward. ga841215 -- If I have to be a mouser to stay here, grandpa, I'll do it! I have made a name for myself in the mousing game. - Then eat that mouse. ARRRGH!!! Please! Please don't make me eat it! - I'd rather swallow my pride than that mouse. ga841216 -- RRRRR Okay, okay. Let's get something to eat. - - No cats allowed! - - - - I've been human for 10 minutes now, but I haven't forgotten my roots. ga841217 -- Gee, I miss having Garfield around. I even miss the abuse. - RRR! - Thanks, Odie, but it just isn't the same. ga841218 -- I'd love to catch your mice, grandpa, But I haven't seen any worthy of my time, got anything bigger? Bring on the training mouse! - - Me and my big mouth. ga841219 -- I'm sorry I can't stay, mom. It's for the best, dear. You'd better hurry home. It's almost Christmas. - Christmas! I almost forgot! - I also forgot I'm lost. ga841220 -- Well, this is just great. I'm cold, I'm hungry, I'm tired... - It's snowing to beat the band, and I haven't the foggiest idea where I am. - While everyone else is having a white Christmas, I'm going to have a white lost. ga841221 -- I'm cold, I'm hungry and I'm tired. - They say, in cases like this, you should fight sleep. - I say, why fight an old friend? ga841222 -- Garfield! Wake up! You're near home! - Huh? Mom? Wha...?! - Wow...it never looked better. ga841223 -- - This is going to be one sad Christmas without Garfield. - SCRATCH SCRATCH SCRATCH - - BLAT! - GARFIELD! SPEAK TO ME! ARE YOU OKAY?! - Actually, yes. I just thought it would be more dramatic this way. ga841224 -- I missed you so much, Garfield! This is going to be the best Christmas ever, because you're here. Jon? - You never realize how much you love someone until they go away. tap tap tap Jon? Jon? Jon? - What is it, Garfield? Read my lips. I'm ga841224 -- hungry! ga841225 -- MERRY CHRISTMAS, BOYS. - There's nothing like having the whole family together at Christmas, right? - ga841226 -- Hey, Garfield, a late Christmas package arrived for you from my mom. OH NO! - Why, it's your annual Christmas sweater! I'll bet you thought she forgot. There was always the hope. - You should send her a "thank you" now. I'll get a letter bomb ga841226 -- out immediately. ga841227 -- I'll give you 10 zillion dollars for that cup of coffee. - There you go again! Every, I say, EVERY MORNING you steal my coffee. GUSH - Aw, isn't that sweet? Our little ritual. ga841228 -- Why is it my coffee cups keep disappearing? - - AHA! I must have a word with the maid. ga841229 -- When you own pets, you get hardened to the fact they will be around your food. - Lose something, Garfield? Nope, here's my stripe. - ga841230 -- It's that time of year again. - This year I resolve to lose weight, exercise more and sleep less. - - Then what are you going to do after you've accomplished all that? - I suppose you're going to be nice to Odie and kowtow to Jon and lick the ga841230 -- mailman's boots! - I DON'T LIKE YOU ALREADY. - Once again I've survived a new year with my vices intact. ga841231 -- Hey, Garfield, get up. A new year is almost upon us! Great! Wake me next year. - Come on. I'm having a party tonight and I want you to be there. If you insist. ga850101 -- That was some new year's celebration last night, wasn't it, Garfield? Did anyone get the license number of the party that hit me? - Are you going to get up today? No way! I got up yesterday and look what happened to me! - Not feeling well, ga850101 -- huh? It would take two of me to feel worse. ga850102 -- I don't mind grocery shopping. - And I don't mind carrying them home. - This is the part I dread. ga850103 -- As long as you're in the way, why don't you find a place to put these groceries. - GOBBLE! GOBBLE! GOBBLE! - I wanted you to put them in the pantry! Urp...that can be arranged. ga850104 -- Okay, guys, I have a new house rule. - From now on no pets are allowed on the furniture. - Harf! Harf! Harf! Wah! Ha! Ha! I don't get no respect. ga850105 -- - One thing I love about Odie... - He's so pushoffable. ga850106 -- I'm bored. - I'm bored, bored, bored. - Wait a minute! I control my own destiny! I'll create an exclusive country club resort. - First, I'll put some sandbox sand in the sunbeam. - Replete with the usual resort accouterments. - Hey, what a ga850106 -- great idea! - I wonder how he got by the membership committee. ga850107 -- Well, the holidays are finally over and the ol' waistline has explored new vistas. pat pat - It is time to declare another NATIONAL FAT WEEK. We shall tell skinny jokes and revel in our fat. - I'm talking about you, chubby. ga850108 -- We fat people get a lot more out of life. We eat big. We drink big, we laugh big. - HAR! HAR! HAR! - Are you okay, Garfield? You wouldn't understand, skinny person. ga850109 -- Being skinny isn't always a bed of roses. - It must be tough wearing suspenders to hold your socks up. - I knew a guy who was so skinny, he had to step on the scales twice to weight himself! ga850110 -- I think skinny people are funny... - Their pants keep falling down. thump thump thump - I knew a kid who was so skinny, all he could wear was a hat! ga850111 -- Don't eat that pie! It's fattening! Eat it! - You'll regret it tomorrow. Tomorrow never comes! - FLIP I'd be thinner if my conscience were quicker-witted. ga850112 -- Fat people are healthier than skinny people in many ways... - For instance, no fat person has ever been diagnosed as having vatorphobia. - That, of course, is the fear of starving to death in a stuck elevator. ga850113 -- This is my lucky day. - - Wha...? SCRIIICK POOF! - It grew back! - I've discovered the bottomless pan of lasagna! - BLIP - I knew it! I knew it! I knew it was too good to be true! ga850114 -- - SLUP! - THAT WAS MY LAST CUP OF COFFEE! I spilled some. You can suck it out of my sweater. ga850115 -- What are you watching, Garfield? I don't know. - Who's the lead character? I don't know. - What's the plot? Hey! I'm watching television! Stop making me think, okay? ga850116 -- SLURP GULP BURP SMACK ERP - OH YUK! How disgusting! There's a people hair in my cat food! ga850117 -- One of my pet peeves is people who never finish what they start. - I do not happen to be one of those people. - My philosophy is, "never start anything." ga850118 -- BLAT! Oops! - Clean that up, Garfield. Patience, my friend. - There are people to do those things. ZIP! ga850119 -- OOOOO - BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! - I'll bite. What is it? A dummy detector. ga850120 -- - tappity tappity tappity - tappity tappity tappity tappity tappity tappity - - BONK! - PANT PANT plunk - CLAP CLAP CLAP Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! ga850121 -- zip! - Hey! Give my napkin back! - Smile when you speak to Sumo Cat, fella. ga850122 -- Sumo Cat has studied Sumo wrestling for years. - Sumo Cat has mastered the most dreaded tricks of his trade. - SNAP! ga850123 -- Sumo Cat assumes the classic Sumo wrestling position. - There is only one tiny drawback to this position... - Severe cramping! ga850124 -- Karate Cat demonstrates his art on a table leg. - HIIYAH! SNAP! - Karate Cat also demonstrates incredible lack of foresight. ga850125 -- Most practitioners of Karate are impervious to pain. - HIIYAH! SMACK! - I happen to be of the previous to pain persuasion. ga850126 -- For your pleasure, I, Judo Cat, will lay a basic move on this hapless bystander. - SMACK! - Leave it up to a dumb dog's rubber tongue to make a mockery of the martial arts. ga850127 -- - Fetch the apple, Odie. - - I send Odie to fetch an apple, and he brings back an apple pie. I think I'm onto something here. - Fetch the T-bone, Odie, my boy. - ga850128 -- Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the cutest cat of all? - Hi there. - Don't answer that. ga850129 -- Do you know what I hate about you, Nermal? You're so one dimensional. - Oh yeah? And what dimension is that? - YOUTH! ga850130 -- Nermal, you're cute, but you're not very bright. Doesn't that bother you? - Oh no. - I figure I'll grow out of this cute stage sooner or later. I rest my case. ga850131 -- Nermal, would you rather have your good looks or my intellect? - My good looks. - I have years and years to get your intellect. That hurt. ga850201 -- Nermal, would you like to be like me when you grow up? - Gosh yes! I'd like to be like you when I grow up. - And up, and up, and out, and out, and up. That boy may not see his next birthday. ga850202 -- I gotta go, Garfield. I'm posing for a cat calendar. - How does one pose for a calendar? One moment. - That's very good. Cute is my life. ga850203 -- Hey, Odie! Look at this! - It's snowing! Let's go out and catch snowflakes on our tongues! - - Here comes a world record! - - Ooo, that's a very impressive collection. - Surprise boys! I fixed a feast for you! No thanks. We just ate.

SPLUT! - Thank you for that generous round of spluts! ga850208 -- SPLUT! - Hey, wait a minute! Shoes don't go "splut"! - SPLUT! That's more like it. ga850209 -- I'm tired of getting hit with pies all the time. - I'm going to find whoever is doing it, and I'm going to bite him. flick - SPLUT! SPLUT! ga850210 -- - Good morning, Garfield. Hi there. - - - WHA?! - You're everywhere at once! How do you do that? Magic. - AMAZING! Thanks, guys. ga850211 -- Can't you close your mouth to eat? You're hard to look at. - You mean, this bothers you? Yuk! - I see no humor in that, Garfield. Then why am I chortling? ga850212 -- A house becomes a home once it's well established with cat hair. - Oh no! This is not a cat hair! It's a whisker! - I'm going bald! ga850213 -- You're shedding again. What am I supposed to do with all this cat hair? Knit the world's largest hairball. - Trade it with your friends, start a mustache factory. - This is going nowhere. Insulate your house! Filter your coffee! ga850214 -- Did you know there are three kinds of cat hair? There's the common, way to clean kind... - There's the kind that disappears into the carpet, never to be seen again. And then there's my favorite... - There's the kind that hangs in the air ga850214 -- forever. LAND! DARN IT! LAND! ga850215 -- Well, I've swept under the furniture, vacuumed my chair and shaken the rugs. I'm finally rid of all your cat hair. - - Fortunately, I keep an emergency supply in the back of my bed. ga850216 -- You boys sure shed a lot. - Wha?! SHOOP! - The cat hair refuses to associate with the dog hair. sniff.. ga850217 -- DINNER TIME, GARFIELD! - I ran out of canned cat food. I'm sure you know what to do with this dried stuff. - I certainly do. - - WHOAAA! - Enjoying your cat food, Garfield? We must have it more often. ga850218 -- WHIRRR! - FWUMP! WHAT WAS THAT?! - Hi, Squeak! Get me out of here! ga850219 -- How are you, Squeak? How would you feel if you got sucked up in a vacuum cleaner? - How humiliating! Me, a mouse, sucked up like a common piece of dirt. That's just my luck! What are the chances of that ever happening? - whirrrr SHOOP! ga850219 -- Getting better all the time, I'd say. ga850220 -- Hey, Garfield, I'm missing a slipper, two spools of thread and a button... - You don't know where they are, would you? I think I do... - May I have a word with you, Squeak? Vroom! Vroom! ga850221 -- Why are people afraid of mice? Bad press, I guess. - Maybe it's because mice carried the black plague in 1348. I don't know what you're talking about. - As I recall, half of Europe died. - Picky, picky, picky. ga850222 -- Would you look at that mousetrap?! Barbaric, isn't it. - You said it! A nice camembert or creamy brie would be worth going in after. - BUT THAT PROCESSED AMERICAN CHEESE IS AN INSULT TO MY PALATE! Precisely what I was saying. ga850223 -- You're lazy, Garfield. Lazy, do you hear me? If you had any ambition, you could be anything you want. - Like the world's greatest mouser? - Lazy, I admire that in a cat. ga850224 -- - Hmmm - click click - Okay, your move. - - GARFIELD! - How many times have I told you not to play with your food? ga850225 -- Hey, Garfield, what say we have potatoes for dinner? - Gee, it's been a long time since I fixed potatoes. - Tell me about it. ga850226 -- Trivia time, Garfield! - What's the only substance on earth harder than a diamond? - Your leftover pizza. ga850227 -- I have just taken an inventory of your refrigerator. - !89 bottles of salad dressing with 1" in the bottom of each. 14 half empty bottles of catsup, 39 open cans of flat soda pop and 62 bread wrappers with the heels. - ORGANIZE YOURSELF! ga850227 -- SMACK! ga850228 -- EEEEK! - Clean your refrigerator out, Jon! The mystery meat crawled out of the tinfoil and snapped at me! ga850301 -- knock knock Who's there? - Uhhh...candy gram? You can't fool me, mystery meat. You want out to wreak havoc. - Today the refrigerator, tomorrow the world! ga850302 -- - I wonder if I should clean the refrigerator. - The bacon is gazing on the lettuce and he asks if the refrigerator needs cleaning. ga850303 -- OH NO! - GARFIELD! YOU'RE SITTING IN MY SCRAMBLED EGGS! They're warm. - Okay, okay, here...enjoy. - NO, go ahead and sit in them, they're ruined now. RUINED? - JUST BECAUSE I STAY IN 'EM, IT'S NOT LIKE YOUR STUPID SCRAMBLED EGGS ARE DISEASED, ga850303 -- YOU KNOW! - UNNNGH! EAT 'EM! EAT 'EM! - HUBERT! THE CAT'S FEEDING JON! Pack your bags, Reba! We're moving for sure this time! ga850304 -- It's time for your checkup, Garfield. I'll get checked-up while the lady vet gets checked out. - We gotta make sure you're in good condition. Right. - The only condition he's worried about is his glandular condition. ga850305 -- Good morning, Mr. Arbuckle. - How did you know it was me? I wasn't even in the door yet! you have a distinctive cologne. - Oh, you mean my ''Ode De Lumberjack"? Bingo. ga850306 -- How about a date, doc? Oh, let's not and say we did. - That's better than nothing, I guess. - Can we say I kissed you good night? If we can say I slapped you. ga850307 -- Let's be honest with one another, Liz. - I'm a man. You're a woman. Get the picture? - That's the door. Get the picture? You'll have to draw it for him, doc. ga850308 -- Do you think these shaders make me more mysterious? YOU don't need them. - Hey, good-lookin', what time do you get off work? - You just propositioned my coat rack. He might get lucky this time. ga850309 -- In case you're thinking about asking me out, doc, forget it. I have plans. - I'm seeing this girl, ho is real cute and real clever and we laugh a lot. Do tell... - My, my, my! Do I detect a note of jealousy in your voice? I walked into that ga850309 -- one? ga850310 -- Sigh. - Garfield, you are worthless. Do you know that? - You are doing zero with your life...zip. Do you know that? poke poke - You should learn something new each day. It would lend purpose to this dreary existence of yours. - I'm going to ga850310 -- the store. When I come back, I want you to have learned something. - I'm home, Garfield. Did you learn anything? - I learned how to use your credit card. ga850311 -- Ah ah ahhhh! Don't touch that dial. We'll be right back. - - ga850312 -- Our cat food is new and improved! - New and improved! New and improved! - Just think...all this time I've been eating old and inferior. ga850313 -- Rats!

WE NEED THE RATINGS! - PLEEEEEASE! CLICK! Arrrgh! - Choice is a powerful thing. ga850315 -- - CLICK - Whatever Jon paid for this TV remote control, it was worth it! ga850316 -- These game shows are disgusting. - It's pathetic how some people will humiliate themselves to win money. - Jon does it for free. * ga850317 -- - That's a pretty impressive display of shedding there, Odie. - But there isn't a dog born who can outshed a cat. - - Take that! - - I WON! I WON! ga850318 -- SURF'S UP! SURF'S UP! - Garfield the Surfer King hangs three. - You're acting strangely lately, Garfield. You live in your world, I'll live in mine. ga850319 -- Garfield, the vet says you are going to have to stay inside. There's a rare strain of Hawaiian cat flu going around. - - Too late, doc. ga850320 -- Garfield, the vet says the Hawaiian cat flu will give you a voracious appetite and make you listless and cranky. - - I guess we'll never know if you're sick or not! I saw that one coming. ga850321 -- Garfield, you have the Hawaiian cat flu. You're going to have to lie around all week. Oh, darn. - And you must stay inside. WHAT?! - For the first time in my life, I gotta get out! ga850322 -- Garfield, I know you are suffering from the Hawaiian cat flu, but you look ridiculous doing that hula dance. - Watch my hands carefully, Jon. - Every movement has a meaning! BONK! ga850323 -- You look much better this morning. You must be over the Hawaiian cat flu. I doubt that I ever had it. - What would you like for breakfast? Just some juice and a Danish. - And a roast pig! And six pineapples! And a pound of Macadamia nuts! ga850324 -- Hey, hey. - Smile big, boys. I'm going to take your picture. - Move back a little farther. - Just a little farther. - SHOOP! - Uh-oh. - There appears to be a camera shoved up your nose. Nas wha I min nrying noo nell you! ga850325 -- Mondays, I hate mondays. It seems like I just get done with one and along comes another one! - - Did you know you're cute when you're angry? ga850326 -- - All right! A new world record! - Six chins. ga850327 -- HOLY GOOD GRAVY! - I DIDN'T KNOW I HAD A BELLYBUTTON! - zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ga850328 -- Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest one of all? - CRACK! tinkle tinkle - Shards shards on the floor... ga850329 -- SCRATCH SCRATCH SCRATCH - tap tap tap - It's okay, Jon...I've subdued the chair. It's safe to sit in now. ga850330 -- There's only one drawback to an assertive lifestyle. - CRASH! - Sometimes you get the bear, and sometimes the bear gets you. ga850331 -- - Here, Garfield. Eat! CLOMP! - Just look at you! You're a fright! - I get up early and groom myself because this is our special time together! - And the only place you take me is for granted! - - Are you trying to tell me something, ga850331 -- Garfield? I'm just showing you what happens when the magic goes out of our relationship. ga850401 -- The mailman is going to rue the day he put on that silly uniform when he opens Jon's mailbox today. - Boy, is he going to be surprised. - Boy, am I stuck. ga850402 -- Here I am, Garfield the cat, doomed to spend the rest of my days in this stupid mailbox. What a cruel twist of fate. - HEY, FATE! HERE'S WHAT I THINK OF YOU! - PLPLPL ga850403 -- Leave it up to me to get stuck in this mailbox. So much for my ambush attempt on the mailman. - Here he comes now! - ga850404 -- * - Thanks, Garfield. - I can see the headlines now.

I'll give it a shot...just one thing... - What's chew? ga850411 -- It's fun to find familiar shades in the clouds. - There's an old standard. - A dog cloud chasing a a cat cloud up a tree cloud. ga850412 -- Good morning, morning. - What a great day to be alive. - I'd even go so far as to say it's a great day to be awake. ga850413 -- Hey, Garfield.

You can't hug them. You can't take them for a walk on a leash. - They have no sense of humor and all they do is eat and sleep. - Wait a minute! I just described me! ga850418 -- Come here, you. - PLOOP - What are you doing with my goldfish, Garfield? Would you believe I was trying to kiss it good night? ga850419 -- OH NO! - DON'T LOCK ME UP!

PUNT! - It's time for a nap ion front of the television. - It's time to eat my afternoon fern. - It's time for my 14-hour beauty rest.

Tierra del Fuego ga850430 -- My cousin Judy is coming to visit and she's bringing her children. - So put everything you value out of reach. - ga850501 -- Hi, Judy! How are you, cousin? - And this must be Tammy. YOOOOOO! IT STINKS HERE! IT SMELLS LIKE A CAT! - Sniff, sniff, yoooo! Where's that kid smell coming from? ga850502 -- Garfield, this is my cousin Judy and her children, Tammy and Stevie. - BALL! BALL! - Oh, listen! Stevie's first words! And his last. ga850503 -- Do you know why I don't like kids? - I'll give you three guesses. - And the first two don't count. ga850504 -- Here, kitty, kitty, kitty. - THERE HE IS! - I'm sure your mother has told you not to play with sharp objects. ga850505 -- z z z - Yup! - I'm glad I'm not a bird. - All they ever do is eat worms and sit in the birdbath. - They never have any fun. - - ga850506 -- Lucky me. Jon's cousin Judy comes to visit and she brings her two yard apes, Tammy and Stevie. - They're basically good kids, I guess. - For werewolves. ga850507 -- I like to hang around babies at mealtime.

SLURP! - UUUNGH! - HA-HAAA! - I'm so proud of Jon. I've taught him everything he knows about gluttony. RRRR ga850513 -- - Rats! I always run out of milk before I run out of cookie! ga850514 -- - BOING! - You should warn me when you put in the screen door! ga850515 -- We cats are special. We are built to sense things about humans even they don't know. - - Your feet stink. ga850516 -- - That's a pretty funky dance, Garfield. Show me how you do it. - First, find a bur in your sandbox. ga850517 -- We're going to the vet, Garfield. I wonder what she'll remove this time. - Any last words? My uncle Patrick's famous quote comes to mind. - "I regret that I have but nine lives to give to my country". ga850518 -- I love this time of year. There's the first bluebird. - There's the first daisy. - DONK - There's the first rake in the face. ga850519 -- Come here, Garfield.

We should kill it before it spreads. ga850523 -- Do you know what I like about your place, Irma? You're open 24 hours. - - I'm giving serious consideration to taking on an assistant. ga850524 -- I don't see how you do it, Irma. - How do you keep this place open 24 hours with no help? - Z Now I see how she does it. Sheer willpower. ga850525 -- Here's your egg, hon. Whatever you do, try not to think about where it came from. - - Have an egg, Garfield. Too late. I already thought about it. ga850526 -- Boy, am I starved. - Here y'are, hon. Thanks, Irma. - - Uh, Irma. - Don't mind me, hon. - I think I lost a false eyelash in here somewhere. - Sardi's this ain't. ga850527 -- I think I'll exercise. - I'd better start slowly. - Today I shall attempt to register a pulse. ga850528 -- KABONG! KABONG! KABONG! KABONG! Garfield, get out of here! - And take your pogo stick with you! ga850529 -- Let's talk about the responsibilities an owner assumes when he obtains a cat. The first responsibility is to feed that cat. - LATER! - I guess we'll wait to discuss the second responsibility when we're in a little better mood. ga850530 -- Hey, Garfield, here's an article about a guy who thought he could fly by wearing a cape and jumping off a building. - They scraped him off Fifth Avenue with a putty knife. I guess he learned his lesson. - Yeah, he didn't believe. ga850531 -- Good morning, Job. Hmmph - SMACK! BLUT! - I'm feeling good about today so don't burst my bubble, okay? ga850601 -- Oh goody! Jon's home! - - When Mr. Excitement steps into the room, you can cut the apathy with a knife. ga850602 -- Hmmm - All cats are innately curious. I was just wondering where rainwater goes. - WHOA! - - Gasp! - So this is where rainwater goes! Interesting! - So this is where dishwater goes! Fascinating. So this is where bathwater goes! That's the ga850602 -- last time I drink out of the toilet. ga850603 -- Good morning, Garfield. Mmmph. - What was that? Mmmph. - I can't understand you. I ate all the ice cream and my mouth went numb, okay? ga850604 -- Sniff - Remember, as you walk down the path of life... - Stop and eat the flowers along the way. ga850605 -- What's the difference between flowers and weeds? - STOMP! STOMP! STOMP! - Weeds have a greater will to live. ga850606 -- - Hey, Jon! - When was the last time you swept under the bed? ga850607 -- Surprise, Garfield! - I picked up lunch at grease world! - Junk food is the staff of life. ga850608 -- - kiss - Pets always sense when you're going to the grocery. Buy me a steak. ga850609 -- - Look at Jon's socks, they are all perfectly tucked and organized. - Okay, socks, line up! Count off! - FORWARD HARCH! ONE! TWO! THREE! FOURP! - Stay away from my sock drawer, Garfield. You make me nervous. - - As you were. ga850610 -- - - Clear your head, Jon. There has to be a logical explanation for this, other than the teddy bear isn't housebroken. ga850611 -- Pick up your stuff, Garfield. STUFF?! Pooky isn't STUFF! He's a real, live, feeling, breathing... - Uh...inanimate object. ga850612 -- That sun is pretty strong today, Pooky. A guy could burn if he's not careful. - - ga850613 -- Do you know why I love Pooky? - It is said we were given two ears and only one mouth so that we can tell only half of what we hear... - Pooky has two ears and no mouth. ga850614 -- So, this is the bedtime story you want to hear, huh? - "Bangor the Enforcer screamed, 'The world is ours!' at that very moment teddy bears everywhere crawled out of their toy chests and armed themselves". - This is a side of teddy bears I'd ga850614 -- as soon not know. ga850615 -- And then about April of '81 or was it '82, my voice changed and I started singing the baritone part. - Gee, Pooky. I'm tired of talking about me... - YOU talk about me for a while. ga850616 -- Persons At Work - How fortuitous, someone was kind enough to dig this hole for me. - I'll cover it with these branches and play a little trick on Odie. - Hey, Odie, have a bone. - BOING! - Something's not right here. - OH NO! IT'S THE OLD ga850616 -- RUBBER HOLE GAG! ga850617 -- This sun is enough to bake your brains. - - That, of course, doesn't affect Odie. ga850618 -- It must be a zillion degrees out there, Garfield. - Let's turn on the radio and find out what the temperature is. - You mean this radio? ga850619 -- - SURPRISE! - Happy birthday, Garfield! I had a feeling this was coming. ga850620 -- Observe, beating the heat is simply a matter of mind over body. - I'm cold. I'm cold. I'm cold. - Unfortunately, my body has a mind of its own. ga850621 -- - - ga850622 -- Have some lemonade, Garfield. - GUSH! - Refreshed? Yo. ga850623 -- Sleeping, we do more of it than anything else in life, and know very little about it. - Welcome to the "Wonderful World Of 'Sleep". Today we will examine fascinating sleeping positions. - Z Jon here is demonstrating the classic fetal ga850623 -- position. - Odie is in your basic armchair poily position. Z - When you sleep as much as I do, you crave variety in your attitudes of repose. - For your edification, I shall now attempt the world's most bizarre sleeping position! - Z oooo ga850624 -- Hey, all you turkeys! You have to go to work and I don't! - - Spare time would be more fun if I had less to spare. ga850625 -- I love lying on the sill watching the rain. - KA-BOOM! - I love lying under the bed listening to the rain. ga850626 -- - - ga850627 -- What do you suppose the chances are of me leaping from this sill and having the window slam shut on my tail? - SLAM! - Do I know me or what? ga850628 -- Most cats would be angry hanging by the tail from a window. - But not me. - I'M FURIOUS! ga850629 -- Let me get you out of the window, Garfield. - There you go. BONK! - I don't know whether to thank Jon, or kill him. ga850630 -- Shoo-doop boowa, shoo-doop boowa. - Well I was workin' last night on my piston head, when my best friend told me my girl was dead. - Well, I'll sure, I'll sure, I'll sure - I'll sure, I'll sure, I'll sure, I'll sure, I'll sure, I'll sure - ga850630 -- KA-CHUNK I'll sure - miss herrrrr. ga850701 -- This tree is tempting me to climb it, but I'm standing my ground this time. - YOU WHAT?! - I can't resist a double dare. ga850702 -- I'll get out of this tree sooner or later. Cats always do. - No cat has ever lived his whole life up a tree. - I have. You stay out of this. ga850703 -- What's your name? Ed. - Now let me get this straight, Ed. You say you've never been on the ground? - What's ground? I see... ga850704 -- Come clean, Ed. You can't tell me you've never been on the ground. That's impossible. - Maybe you're right. - Mom, have I ever been on the ground? What's ground? ga850705 -- Garfield, I'd like you to meet my twin brother, Ted. - Ed! Ted is a squirrel! - No wonder mother always liked him best! ga850706 -- This is just great. Here I am stuck up a tree with a cat who's been raised by squirrels. - SQUAWK! - Now what are you doing? Storing birds for the winter. ga850707 -- Let's see, it's over and under, then through. - I'm taking you out to eat, Garfield. You'll have to wear this to get into the restaurant. - I'll have a steak and my ca...er...son will have a triple order of lasagna and a cup of cocoa. - This ga850707 -- is an exclusive restaurant, Garfield. Use your silverware. GULP! SLURP! GULP! - That marshmallow is meant for your cocoa. - Heh, heh. Don't lick your paws at the table, son. - That's the rudest little kid I've ever seen! He even shed on the ga850707 -- tablecloth. ga850708 -- Can you imagine a cat being raised by squirrels? I gotta get Ed out of this tree before it's too late. - Too late for what? - Never mind. ga850709 -- It's time we get out of this tree, Ed. How do we do that? - CRACK! - Funny you should ask. ga850710 -- Welcome to your first step on earth, Ed! What do you think? - Wow! Wild! Weird! - What are you doing? I've never walked sideways sideways before. ga850711 -- Well, Ed, what do you think of your first trip out of your tree? - Ed? - I think I have a fear of low places. ga850712 -- Since you've been raised by squirrels, Ed, you have a lot to learn about being a cat. - What is that? That is a dog. Cats are afraid of dogs. - What? I have forgotten. ga850713 -- I gotta go home, Garfield. What for? - I miss mother, the squirrel. You're weird, Ed. - You're lucky, too. ga850714 -- - King Cattaeatalotta gives a peace offering to the volcano that claimed young princess Angora. - Up against the wall, you crumbums, or I'll give your backsides a taste of my daisy! - Make love, not dog pounds. - Here, my dear, perhaps this ga850714 -- will will make up for leaving you alone to fend off the border guards. - AHEE AH-EE AH! - WHAT HAPPENED TO MY FLOWER BED?! Scuttlebutt at the precinct is that your daisies were vandalized by an overactive imagination. ga850715 -- Ha, ha, ha! I love my new Monday suit. CLANK CLANK - Nothing can get me now. CLANK - CREAK Except possibly rust. ga850716 -- Something is not right here. - WHAM! I knew it!!! - Today is Monday cleverly disguised as Tuesday. ga850717 -- There's nothing more annoying than a leaky faucet. DRIP DRIP DRIP - DRIP DRIP DRIP DRIP - DRIP DRIP DRIP Unless it's a leaky dog. ga850718 -- DRIP DRIP DRIP DRIP - DRIP DRIP DRIP Come here, Odie. - DRIP DRIP DRIP Let me tighten your gasket. ga850719 -- - - Get rid of the dog! ga850720 -- Look at those cars out there, Garfield. What a fascinating assemblage. - All those people in their tiny steel universes, moving to the choreography of the traffic light. - What are your observations on the subject, Garfield? 17 blue ones have ga850720 -- gone by 11 red ones. ga850721 -- - Hey, Garfield! It's going to be a beautiful day! Let's spend it outside! - Where are my swim trunks? - There's suntan lotion in here somewhere. - And now a picnic lunch! - PERFECT DAY, HERE WE COME! - Rats. Missed it. ga850722 -- Ladies and gentlemen, for your entertainment pleasure, I've added music to my act. - I am proud to introduce the man with the plan from the street with the beat. - Mr. Skins! ga850723 -- I knew a dog who was o ugly, he had to... - TIDDY-BOOM! - Let's talk timing. ga850724 -- But seriously though, folks, how am I doing so far? - SPLAT! - Et tu, rhythm section? ga850725 -- I knew a dog who was so ugly, his fleas wore dog collars! - TIDDY-BOOM TIDDY-BOOM TIDDY-BOOM TIDDY-BOOM TIDDY-BOOM - Padding our part, are we? ga850726 -- And now for the dog joke of the night. - Mr. Skins, may I have a drum roll please? - ga850727 -- And now for a brief musical interlude with Mr. Skins. - NO! NO! NOT THAT ONE! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! - Not the "Lithuanian Rain Dance" ga850728 -- Ooch! Eech! Ouch! - - Hot, hot, hot. It's hot out there. - It's too hot to move. It's too hot to think, It's just too hot. - - rrr ft - Garfield! Odie! - Stop fighting. ga850729 -- Here you are, Garfield. I call it "Breakfast Surprise". - BLAT! - If I wanted a surprise, I'd eat in the dark. ga850730 -- - - It's times like this I wish Odie could talk. ga850731 -- Do you want something to eat, boys? BARK! BARK! - Do you? Huh? huh? YIP! YIP! BARK! - The word "dignity" is not in a dog's vocabulary. ga850801 -- I am cat, hear me roar, I am too big to ignore. SNAP! - - Perhaps I should consider a career change. ga850802 -- - - It's shorts weather. ga850803 -- BARK! - Hey, Odie. Come back here. - Do that again. I can still hear a little out of this ear. ga850804 -- Oh yuk! A spider! - Hold still, spider, while I squash you with this window. - SLAM! tinkle tinkle - PLOP! - CRASH! - KA-BOOM! - Rats! Missed it. ga850805 -- Look what you did to that chair, Garfield, You're too fat. - I am not too fat. They just don't make chairs the way they used to. - They don't make doors the way they used to either. ga850806 -- Garfield, you wouldn't be fat if your eyes weren't larger than your stomach. - - THAT'S JUST AN EXPRESSION! ga850807 -- Garfield, I'm putting you on a diet. ARRRGH! - I know you hate diets. If you can think of a better way to lose weight, I'm willing to listen. - Amputate something! ga850808 -- Ah, there is nothing more refreshing than a leaf of fresh lettuce for the wight conscious. - Thank you so much for the delightful diet, Jon. - Where are you going? - I'm going to die now. ga850809 -- - There's an interesting bit of diet trivia. - A pie cut into tiny slices has fewer calories than an entire pie. ga850810 -- - ZIP - ga850811 -- Hey, Garfield! Come here quick! - Look, Garfield, the carnival has come to town! Let's go! Whoopty doo. - Do you know what I love most about a carnival? the intellectual stimulation? - I love the sideshow.

What is it? - It's Coquille Saint-Jacques garnished with Belgian endive and laced with French truffles. - AGAIN?! ga850815 -- See what you think about my lemonade, Garfield. - - Needs sugar? Needs sugar. ga850816 -- - - ga850817 -- These new sodas are great. - They're sugar-free and caffeine-free. - And flavor-free. ga850818 -- Garfield, where are you going? - GARFIELD! - Well, I hope you feel like a complete idiot. That is a hot dog truck, not a hot dog. I do feel sorta silly. - NOW WHAT?! - Now for dessert. ga850819 -- Z - HEY! - When there's napping to do around here, I'LL do it. ga850820 -- You're late for dinner, Garfield. - I assume you have a good excuse. - My morning nap raged out of control. ga850821 -- Rats. - I hate it when this happens to me. - Daytime insomnia. ga850822 -- - - I FELL ASLEEP ON MY TENNIS RACKET, OKAY?! Oh. ga850823 -- There must be millions of ants down there. - I wonder how you tell the difference between boy ants and girl ants. - I guess they didn't have any trouble figuring it out. ga850824 -- Hey, bug. You're ugly. - You're creepy. - You're history. SQUIK ga850825 -- * - Eat me. - I can't eat you. You're Jon's favorite fern. What are fronds for? - I might get in trouble. Aw, come on. Take one little taste. You'll like me. - - MUNCH CHOMP MUNCH CHOMP - GARFIELD! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! Just trying to make ga850825 -- everybody happy. Thank you. ga850826 -- Gee, Jon's pancakes sure look good. - I'd love to take them from him, but I'm not that kind of guy. - But the Caped Avenger is! ga850827 -- The Lone Ranger has Tonto, the Green Hornet has Kato, and Batman has Robin. The Caped Avenger needs a sidekick too. - - Then again, I may go this a capella. ga850828 -- As the new sidekick of the Caped Avenger, you need a neat name. What shall I call you? - SLURP - Come along, "Slurp". ga850829 -- Slurp, as the Caped Avenger's sidekick, you need a costume. - - You've missed the point. ga850830 -- Okay, Slurp, go out and find a costume befitting the sidekick of the Caped Avenger. - - Rule number one: never dress better than the hero. slap slap slap ga850831 -- Here comes my sidekick, Slurp. - CRASH! - Hey, Slurp, maybe you should cut some eyeholes in your mask. ga850901 -- Z - Z - Rats! I'm hungry. I always wake up in the middle of the night hungry. Oh well, let's look around. - Hello, what's this? It feels like a big old loaf of pumpernickel. - YIP! Sorry about that, Odie. - All right! Olives! I love Olives! I ga850902 -- like to suck the pimentos out first and then nibble on the green part till it's gone. - SHUP - I assume there's a logical explanation for this. CLICK I'm so embarrassed. ga850903 -- Slurp, our mission in life is to seek out evil wherever it may lurk. - LOOK! - I'll bet there's some leftover evil in that refrigerator. ga850904 -- Now that I have a sidekick, I can get into all sorts of trouble and he will protect me. - Hey, dog, your mother chases garbage trucks. SMACK - What do you mean, you resign your commission? ga850905 -- The Caped Avenger sees a door that must be broken down. - Slurp, take that door out! - I love sidekicks. They do all the painful stuff. ga850906 -- Come along, Slurp. Let's go fight for truth and justice. - Look! There's a big dog beating up on a little dog! That's unjust! There's only one thing to do. BONK! - We'll just fight for truth today. ga850907 -- Oh no! My blanket's not here! How am I going to be the Caped Avenger today? - Maybe Jon's got something. - Somehow I don't think the "Paisley Avenger" is going to cut it. ga850908 -- Pet Shop - Look at all those poor animals in there all caged up. This looks like a job for... - Freedom Fighter! - YOU'RE FREE! YOU'RE FREE! - GO FOR IT! - Hmmm, folks must not be heavily into freedom these days. - You're secure! You're ga850908 -- secure! SLAM! ga850909 -- Let's go to a movie tonight. Here's one about kids at a day-care center who save the world. It's been done. - How about "Ninja Grandmother"? You're getting warmer. - Here it is! "The Angry Mauve Planet" Sounds like a contemporary remake. ga850910 -- Well, guys, there's one thing we need before we go into the movie. SNACKS! - I'd like the banana-flavored tooth busters, the flaming mouth things, the triple-buttered nut clusters and three pumpkin fizz sodas. - That will be $89.50 Uh, how ga850910 -- about some popcorn? With the barbecue sauce. ga850911 -- - I probably shouldn't ask this, but where did Odie get the bubble gum? - PLOP! Don't ask, and don't look under the seats. ga850912 -- - - Cut that out. ga850913 -- - Where are you going?

What is it? - A toothpick! ga860221 -- * * * * * - You dance like you have two left feet. - I do. Oh, yeah. ga860222 -- Why hasn't our relationship grown? Because you're a wise guy and I'm self-centered. - But, Garfield, no man is an island. - Or, in your case, a continent. My ego and I will get back on you. ga860223 -- Z - I wonder how Garfield would look in my gag glasses? Z - And tie, and shorts, and tennies?

Ha! Ha! Ha!" - And the he fell right off his chair. ga860313 -- Some people only talk about writing books. - And some people do something about it. - Yes...yes, this is how I want to be photographed for the book jacket. ga860314 -- Go ahead and eat, Jon, I'm a writer.

ARRRGH! - DO YOU KNOW WHAT A DIET COULD DO TO ME? - I could waste away to normal! ga860319 -- - The TV advertisers didn't waste any time. - I've been on a diet one day and they're already running more food commercials. ga860320 -- I gotta kick something. This diet is making me grumpy. - tap - Not to mention, weak. ga860321 -- Garfield, I just want to tell you how proud I am of you. Jon, there's something I have to tell you. - You've done a great job sticking with your diet this week. Listen to me, Jon. - And that takes a lot of self-discipline. I ate your bunny ga860321 -- slippers. ga860322 -- You shouldn't watch sad movies when you're on a diet, Garfield. You know how emotional you get. - This isnt a sad movie. - It's a food commercial. ga860323 -- SLURP! SLURP! - SLURP! - Uugh! This coffee is weak! - What the?

If you don't mind. - Perhaps you could garnish it with a chocolate cake. ga860326 -- - I think I know how Odie stays so slim. - It must take a lot of energy to be that stupid. RRRRRR ga860327 -- You have lost three pounds. - Congratulations, Garfield! Thank, you. - Pssst, when do I get my fresh batteries? Later. ga860328 -- Garfield, in order to successfully diet, you must change your eating habits. - - SPLUT! ga860329 -- On which days are most diets begun? - Wrong.

I'm called Rip because I'm fast. Juanita was my grandmother's name. - How about you, Bob? That's the sound my head makes when it runs into a wall. - I take it Bob isn't very bright. He couldn't get through a ga860403 -- maze with a map. ga860404 -- Jon will kill me if he finds out I let rats into the house. I'll lure them out with the old "Pied Piper" ploy. - * - Okay, fat boy. Let's take it from the top. ga860405 -- What do you guys want to do today? Let's spread pestilence! - Nah, let's lower somebody's property value. Or take a scenic sewer tour. - You're disgusting.

I see you stil have that space between your teeth. - At least I can close my mouth. I can go on a diet. - You're not likely to go on a diet.

Arrrghh! ga861021 -- Tell me something, doc. - Why is it every time I bring a hoseplant home, Garfield eats it? - Given the shape he's in, it's one of the few things in his diet that can't outrun him. She's a funny lady. ga861022 -- Give me one good reason why you won't go out with me, doc. - You're obnoxious, pushy, wishy-washy, slow-witted and boring. - Oh yeah? Well give me a second reason. ga861023 -- Just what would I have to do to get you to go out with me, doc? - Stand on your head and scream like a chicken, for starters. - BUCK-BUCK-BUC-KAW!

I got an aluminium tree this year. No more mess. No more tradition. - And for splash and dash, it turns in an electric stand! Is nothing sacred? - If it's splash and dash Jon wants, this blender would make ga861221 -- a keen tree stand. - Ready for me to plug the tree in, Garfield? Give me a head start! - WHIRRRR ARRRRGH! HEY, JON! WANT MORE DASH? TRY LIQUEFY! ga861222 -- Get out of my way, Odie. I'm trying to wrap presents. - - ga861223 -- Good evening, folks. I'd like to start by signing a few Christmas carols! - SPLUT! BLAT! SPLAT! - Critics don't even take the holidays off. ga861224 -- Well, the gifts are under the tree and the food is prepared. There's only one more order of business... - I just want to tell you guys how much I love you. - Jon is like Christmas. I only appreciate him once a year. ga861225 -- WAKE UP, BOYS! IT'S CHRISTMAS MORNING! - Let's see if Santa brought gifts for all the good little children. - I guess not. Here's one for Garfield. What the heck, it's Christmas. I'll let him live. ga861226 -- The day after Christmas I always get drepressed. - Do you know what I mean, Garfield? Yes, I do. - If I were you I'd be depressed every day. ga861227 -- What a dippy sweater. - It's not the gift, but thought that counts. - Okay, okay, I THINK it's a dippy sweater. ga861228 -- EEK! - Here he is! Z - Excuse us, Mr. Cat. We desire cheese. - We can't sleep without our cheese. - And if we can't sleep, you won't sleep. - All right! All right! - Here, if there's nothing else, I'd like to get some sleep. - You wouldn't ga861228 -- happen to have tiny little forks would you? Here's where I turn vicious. ga861229 -- CAT HAIRS! They're a face of life. - THERE ARE CAT HAIRS ALL OVER THE PLACE! So, what are you going to do about it? - I'll be packing my bags and leaving now. ga861230 -- Wherever I stop, we're stuck with it. Right, Garfield? Right. - The things Jon will do for excitement... - click click click click Television roulette. ga861231 -- You guys will never guess what I found at the store. - PHONY THE TEETH! - HAR! HAR! HAR! HAR! Let's bite him in the neck. ga870101 -- It's time to clean the fridge, Garfield. I'll call a S.W.A.T. team. - Grim. - I haven't seen these olives in years.

This is your week in the sun. Today we begin celebrating "National Lazy Week"! - What's so great about being lazy, you say? - What if war were declared and nobody showed? ga870106 -- Is National Lazy Week for you? Ask yourself this: - Would you be willing to lead a parade in celebration of the lazy life? - If the answer is yes...you're all wrong for Lazy Week. ga870107 -- Never confuse being lazy with being apathetic. We lazy people are not apathetic. - Apathetic people don't care about anything. - Lazy people care, we just don't do anything about it. ga870108 -- Do people call you "worthless"? Do people call you a "couch potato"? - Why should we be held up to public ridicule just because we subscribe to a kinetically passive lifestyle. We should stand up for ourselves! - THE NEXT TIME PEOPLE CALL YOU ga870108 -- LAZY, TELL 'EM YOU WERE SICK WHEN YOU WERE A KID! ga870109 -- Don't forget the National Lazy Week motto, lazy people. "There must be an easier way". - Many great ideas have been spawned from that noble sentiment. - You can bet it wasn't an exercise freak who invented power steering. ga870110 -- For those of you who want to stop abusing your bodies through fanatic exercise, but can't muster the willpower... - You can now join "Garfield's Exercisers Anonymous". - Every time you feel an uncontrollable urge to jog, I send someone over ga870110 -- with a mug of warm milk and a tape of the Beverly Hillbillies. ga870111 -- Waterin' down the coffee again, pilgrim? - Burp - - JON! - JON! WAKE UP! I'M HAVING NIGHTMARES! - Garfield, if you didn't stuff yourself right before going to bed, you wouldn't dream about big, ugly monsters. - Did you hear what he called you ga870111 -- guys? - I think I'll polish off that pepperoni pizza now. ga870112 -- Isn't this great, Garfield? We have a whole day of fishing ahead of us! Hotcha. - HEY! WHERE's THE BAIT? Bait? - GARFIELD! I thought it was sushi. ga870113 -- Actually, Garfield is pretty easy to care for. - Cats are so clean, always primping and washing themselves. - We're out of foot powder. Almost to a fault. ga870114 -- Ah, my dear, you're as lovely as ever, but, you look so stiff and formal in that outfit. - Why don't you slip into something more comfortable? - LIKE ME! ga870115 -- - CHOMP! - SPRONG! ga870116 -- Just what is an heirloom? - A heirloom is something that's been in your family for generations... - That no one's had the guts to pitch out. ga870117 -- zzzzzzz - zzzzzzz - zzzzzz Just as I suspected. ga870118 -- * Oh, Nermalll * - Kittens love to chase things. - CRASH! This can be a very satisfying form of enterteinmant. - BONK! Kittens also love to play catch. - But, the best way to drive them wild is to hide objects from them. - ROWR! cRUNCH! HISS! ga870118 -- - But, not for very long. ga870119 -- GARFIELD! WAKE UP! - I've made a decision that could alter the course of my entire life. - I have decided to grow a mustache. I suppose I could blame this on monday. ga870120 -- Notice anything different about me, Garfield? You're not drinking out of your Binky The Clown mug. - I think my mustache is coming in rather nicely. That's not your cocoa? - Wanna touch it? It feels really weird. Hey, buddy, I have to eat ga870120 -- with these hands! ga870121 -- Look Odie! A hideous hairy monster is nesting under Jon's nose! - Maybe it'sll spread and cover the rest of his face. - Are you making fun of me? IT MOVED! ga870122 -- Mustaches do strange things to people. - They make some guys think they're someone they're not. - Frankly, my dear, I don't give a darn. I don't feel safe here anymore. ga870123 -- ARRRGH! - JON! WHAt HAPPENED? I'M FINE! GO AWAY! - ARE YOU OKAY? TELL ME! The shaver snagged my mustache, okay? ga870124 -- I shaved my mustache off, Garfield. Do tell. - I decided it made me look like a walrus. I'm proud of you, Jon. - It takes a big walrus to admit his mistakes. ga870125 -- How's my little buddy today? Crowded. - TAP TAP TAP - Garfield, what are you doing? - SNAP! Charades? I love charades! Let's see...first word...you? No, you're! That's it! You're! - Leg! No! Stand! You're standing in something! - Fourth word! ga870125 -- MY! You're standing in my! - I GOT IT! FOOD!

That's "Mr. Fig Face" to you. ga870127 -- * - * ga870128 -- Here I am falling asleep face down in a bowl of food. - This is it. I've reached the pinnacle of laziness and gluttony...how depressing. - There's no place to go after you've reached the top. ga870129 -- I eat too much because I'm depressed, and I'm depressed because I eat too much. - It's a vicious circle... - That took years to perfect! ga870130 -- BANG! BANG! Hello? Anybody home? - BRINNNNNG! - Next time, use the door knocker. Sorry. ga870131 -- - STOP RIGHT THERE! - Sometimes that's all a cat understands. ga870201 -- Don't slobber on the controls, Mr. Odie! - WHAT HO?! - Pistachios! And they're all mine! - crack BOING! - SNIFF SNIFF SNIFF - SNORT! - SLURP! - Dogs APPEAR friendly, but, I'd hate to get caught between one and his appetite. BURP ga870202 -- - BONK! - GARFIELD! SPEAK TO ME! Aunty Em? Is that you? ga870203 -- Garfield! That was a nasty fall you took. Are you all right` - Garfield? Who's Garfield? - OH, nO! HE'S LOST HIS MEMORY! I do seem to rememger being hungry. ga870204 -- Having anmesia isn't so bad. It'll be kind of fun finding out what a great guy I am. - ARRRGH! - OH, NO! I'M A CAT! ga870205 -- Maybe seeing Odie will jog your memory. What a swell looking dog. Put 'er there. - YIP! YIP! YIP! - I woner if I'm going to like this Garfield? ga870206 -- Look, Garfield. It's Pooky! Your favorite possession and closest friend. Do you remember Pooky? - Don't be silly. I'm a grown cat. What would I need with a teddy bear? ga870207 -- Amnesia has wiped my slate clean. I start establishing who I am today. - - I am (burp) a glutton. ga870208 -- Hey, stranger. This body ain't big enough for the both of us. - What a week...I fall on my head, totally lose my memory, and have no idea who this Garfield fella is. - - HANg ON! SOMETHING'S COMING BACK! - HA! HA! - WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! - I'm ga870208 -- terribly sorry about that. You see, I'm not myself today. ga870209 -- Amnesia is weird. This Garfield is like a total stranger to me. - I know nothing about him. - Aside from what the creep did to my body. ga870210 -- This should jog your memory, Garfield... LASAGNA! - No thank you. You wouldn't have a plump, juicy mouse, wouldn't you? - ARRRGH! I'd never get this stuff out of my whiskers. ga870211 -- You just HAVE to restore Garfield's memory, doc. - He doesn't beat up on Odie, he doesn't claw the furniture, he's not lazy and obnoxious... - Are you sure you want me to do this? Come to think of it... ga870212 -- Let's test his reflexes. DONK! - - DOING! Normal. For Garfield. ga870213 -- Perhaps Garfield's amnesia could be cured by lightly traumatizing his cranium. - KNOCK MY CAT ON THE HEAD?! WHO WOULD EVER DO SUCH A THING?!! - May I be of assistance? You stay out of this. ga870214 -- Go ahead. A little tap on the head may bring your cat's memory back. DONK! - GONK! - HEY! I CAN REMEMBER! IT'S ME! GARFIELD THE CAT! Garfield?

It was only a dream! ga870304 -- Garfield, I just don't know what I see in you.

PLEASE ANYWHERE BUT THERE. - You know what that place is like! Especially on weekends. - I'll get him for this. ga870309 -- Garfield, you need more vegetables in your system. What are you going to do? Drive a carrot through my heart? - Here, have some spinach. OH-NO! - GASP! CHOKE! COUGH! Stop being melodramatic, Garfield. ga870310 -- Eat your spinach, Garfield. - It's good for you. - Well, now that's more like it! ga870311 -- Have some spinach, Garfield. - Sure, and let's garnish it with a big box of raisins. - ZIP!

I can't believe Jon! - How about a date? Trying to get a date with a wring number. - Tomorrow at seven? Great! A DESPARATE wrong number. ga870318 -- Garfield, I'd like you to meet my date. - MOMMA MIA! - What's with your cat? He's, uh, terrified of daisies. ga870319 -- Now, be nice to my date. She might be sensitive about her weight. How'd she get in here? Through the garage door? - Her name is Bertha. Figures. - She's a lovely person. You can't judge a book by it's cover, you know. And you can't judge a ga870319 -- ship by its hull. ga870320 -- Bertha, I'd like you to meet Garfield. - He could use some meat on his bones. - Affectionate sort, isn't he? He's a sucker for sweet talk. ga870321 -- Think, Jon, think. There's gotta be SOMETHING nice to say to your date. - My, your teeth are round. I eat a lot. - You don't say! No!

A woman after my own heart. - Would you like a table or a booth? A table, please. And the lady will have a booth. - What do you have to do to get any serive ga870324 -- around here?

DO YOU WANT TO BRIGHTEN MY MORNING?! - Then you can march out of that cage and crawl between two slices of bread. JON! ga870401 -- Garfield, do you like sweety bird? He's right up there with dogs and mondays. - You wouldn't intend him any harm, would you? I don't know what you're talking about. - Then why is he covered with clam sauce? An old family recipe. ga870402 -- SQWAWK! - HONK! - Did we remember how to open the bird cage? Not only that, we forgot birds could fly. ga870403 -- Hey, bird! You think you're safe out there, huh? - Well, I have a little treat for you! - Have you, perchance, ever heard a cat scream? ga870404 -- Hey, Garfield! What are you doing out there? - And look!

I was built for push-ups. ga870411 -- No, seriously, Linda, I'm a fun guy. I do great impressions! - You do impressions too? Let's hear one. - Listen to this, Garfield, She sounds like a dial tone! This man has no brain. ga870412 -- The lone gourmet strikes again. - TAP! TAP! - YAWN - You go out and play, Pooky. - ZIP! WHAT tHE...? - HEY, WAIT A MINUTE! I'M NAILED TO MY BED! - WHA?!! - I suppose this was for putting the lizard in your shoe? Now we're even. ga870413 -- You're a slob, Garfield, Why can't you stay as clean as other cats? - You're supposed to wash yourself like this. Oh, very well. - Start with this arm and make it snappy. You have a lot of territory to cover. ga870414 -- - - See anything you like? ga870415 -- Do you know what I hate most about this bed? - UNNNGH! - Trying to sleep on my back. ga870416 -- It's time to get up. - CREAK!

GET UP, GARFIELD! - Truths like: "mondays stink". ga870421 -- Life has many good things to offer: music, art, literature... - Sometimes I think about educating myself on those subjects... - But then I tihnk, "stick with what you know". ga870422 -- How did you get to be so lazy, Garfield? - Brains, hard work, tenacity and dedication. You're not just born lazy, you know. It's an acquired skill... - I'm sorry I asked. ...an art form if you will, not unlike poetry, dance or music. ga870423 -- Here comes the mailman, Garfield. I want you to be on your best behavior. - ROWRR! - I must admit, that was one of my better behaviors. ga870424 -- I ate too much. - I'll probably get another sermon from Jon. - Garfield, you eat too much.

How sweet! - Why the show of affection? We just like having you around. - Besides, if you left, Jon might get a REAL cat! ga870509 -- How about a nice quiet breakfast for two, Garfield? Great idea! - SLAM! click - Sometimes Jon can be so thoughtful ga870510 -- Come on, Odie. There's no reason to be afraid of the dark. - - Just look at this! Someone has left the cellar door open! - Jon has told me a hundred times to keep it closed. - Or somebody might get hurt. SLAM! - thump thump thump thump thump ga870510 -- thump BONK! - Sorry about that, Jon. ga870511 -- I'm hungry!

Not at all. - Wow! That's a big cat! He didn't look that big from the front of the bus 'cause things look smaller from far away. - You, if he had a mane he'd look like a lion, but, then they'd make him get off at the ga870816 -- zoo, I suppose! - Zoos make me nervous. I'm never sure which side of the bars I'm on. I wonder if the animals feel that way too? - Well, I gotta change seats. You guys talk too much.

So what does HE get out of it? - He gets to call himself "Master". ga870820 -- With each new day, a cat's curiosity must be satisfied anew. - KICK - Yup, the law of gravity is still in effect. ga870821 -- Dear Hair Ball Cat Food Co., I find your cat food gives my cat a "long silky coat of hair" as advertised... - However, I think you should add a disclaimer. - "Do not feed your cat more than 36 cans a day." ga870822 -- You're wasting your life away, Garfield. You should be out there...uh... - Out there doing whatever it is cats do. - That's what I like about being a cat. Our standards are low. ga870823 -- Up next, "Pasta Parade," followed by "World of Waffles". I love this all-food channel. - I ask you...what more to life could there possibly be? - Decisions, decisions... - Should I eat first and then sleep or sleep first and then eat? - ga870823 -- Hmmm...I usually eat first. Maybe I should sleep first for a change of pace. - On the other hand, if I sleep first, Odie might eat my food before I wake up. - * - Z ga870824 -- Stupid pet door! - UI thought Jon fixed it! - Unnngh! ga870825 -- Jon, remember when you thought it was a great idea to put the pet door in? - And how Odir and I could come and go as we pleased? - You goofed again. ga870826 -- About your weight, Garfield. - You're getting a bit large for your pet door. - Do tell. ga870827 -- PURRR - How nice!

Eat something good for you. - - Zap...you're a carrot stick. ga870919 -- Great chefs know it's the appearance of food that counts. - GUP! - But, great eaters know it's the amount of food that counts. ga870920 -- No, please don't do it. In the name of humanity!! - - - - WHUMP! - Haw! Haw! Haw! Haw! - ZIP! - WHUMP! - Haw! Haw! Haw! - Reba! Come here and look at this, but you'd better cinch up your corset first! ga870921 -- - Are you ever seriuos, Garfield?

I'll keep him laughing while you get the authorities. ga870925 -- Garfield, what's the matter? - JON! YOU GOTTA CLEAN OUT THE REFRIGERATOR! - Whatever it is, it can't be that bad, old buddy. The tuna is spawning in the tomato soup! ga870926 -- Watching the paint dry, Garfield? - I hope he doesn't think that my life is so totally devoid of excitement that I am reduced to that. - I'm waiting for it to peel. ga870927 -- - A hungry vulture perches above his prey, silently, patiently, waiting for his meal to draw its last breath. - CLICK - - CLICK STOP THAT!

Now Jon will probably try to cheer me up with stupid platitudes. - You're depressing, Garfield. And you're fat and lazy too. - Then again, even stupid platitudes have their good points. ga871002 -- Cheep up, Garfield. Just remember that life is just a game. - It's not whether you win or lose, but how you play that counts. - So, what are you going to do today? Forfeit. ga871003 -- I hate those little insert cards. - SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE - Just as I suspected. ga871004 -- Can we be of assistance? * - That stupid dog next door is in for a BIG surprise. - When he comes by, he will mistake the mirror for me. - Then he will attack and fall into this pit. - Then this net will fall on him. - Then this cement mixer ga871004 -- will tip, sealing that sucker up for about ten million years. - WAIT! WAIT! GO BACK AND COME IN AGAIN! ga871005 -- Do you always insult the people you weigh? Yes.

And next time ease up on the taco sauce! I hope they explode. ga871019 -- YAWN Ahh...there's nothing like a good nap. - - With the possible exception of TWO good naps. ga871020 -- The coffee's strong today. - SLAP SLAP SLAP SLAP SLAP - Not only strong, but mean! ga871021 -- Food!
