Garfield by Jim Davis for March 09, 2024

Funny how there are other nicknames for bald people, like “Curly” or “Cueball”.

It would take a lot more then catsup to cover up that taste.

Revenge is sweet…(or in this case: sweat socks, huh?)

Mernie Elman So how were they? Were they as bad as his?

Good for you, Ernie!……

I notice that Garfield says “catsup”, and not “ketchup”.

A little meloncholy in that third panel…..

The cat’s up to catsup being inadequate in covering bad tastes all around…

Jon messed with the wrong Melon.

And Garfield would know!

When life gives you melons…

Brother balded early — On the plus side, he was never carded for alcohol, despite being under 18.

With your feet still in them, Jon?

Jon, this is why you leave the insults to other people

So bad neither ketchup or teriyaki sauce gives better taste to socks.

“NOT ENOUGH CATSUP IN THE WORLD…”

(senses dialogue (of this cartoon) worthy of expanding (without ellipses))

Garfield has been pronouncing ketchup as catsup since around the early-1980’s.

Melman found a career later on in the U.S. Postal Service.

Did Big Ernie Melman have a brother named Larry?

So, as a kid, Jon was into name calling. Now he lives with Garfield, the original narcissist. It serves him right.

Kinda like the girl Jon flirted with in another strip….then her boyfriend made him eat his socks. Must be an arbuckle delicacy

My High school days were never that bad?

Does a cat sup on catsup?

“Catsup?” Don’t you mean, “Ketchup?”

Please stop making Jon eat socks. It’s bad for his health.

did you have Toe Jam with those socks?

Good for him. More need to stand up to bullies and name-callers

Garfield could have been worse .Jon could have been forced to eat melonheads sweat socks

You deserved that Jon……..
