Garfield by Jim Davis for July 13, 2009

I resent that Jon.

Venus and Mars, Jon. Venus and Mars. Men are weird, too.

They aren’t weird, they are just different - sometimes very different. Don’t forget, different can be a very good thing.

“Weird” can be defined as something you don’t understand, so - to men - women are very weird.

Understand women? Does Rosetta Stone have set of CD’s for THAT language, too?? Just $14 kazillion plus shipping & handling. Call 1-800-what the???

Heh, after 46 books and counting you should’ve realized that you’re the one who’s weird, Jon.

Still…Jon does seem to be getting somewhat less weird, now that Liz is finally responding to him. He’s finally discovering women realistically, and is learning that women aren’t like men in some very basic ways.

With age comes wisdom, indeed. :)

As two of my friends would put it …. “Everyone is weird in their own sick-twisted way. It all depends on the degree that you are looking at is what stands out the most.”

“girls weird”? Doesn’t Jon have a lint collection?!

I’m weird and PROUD!

Whoever said being weird was a bad thing?

Hey you guys, you’re just as weird to US as we are to YOU! How can you prefer football to shopping? Now that’s weird! LOL!

Macushlalondra, I’m a female, and I’d much rather watch a football game, especially pro, than go shopping!

Hello I’m new here. I like to add and gocomics has been fun to read. I do not like sports. No money for shopping. How about garage sales although people are charging too much? I like books.

That’s the pot calling the kettle black, Jon!

You’re right, Jon…but we’re not as weird as you.

vive la difference!

I have more fun being weird. (It really comes in handy when I’m playing mind games with the males in my life!)

@RRAmom:

Really…is that true…women play mind games?!

I love myself a weird woman, it brings out the weird in me…

Alas! Jon is much worst weird!

Women only act weird to let guys think they are normal.

At least Jon has a relationship that allows him to make this observation.

Jor-El has it right. Venus and Mars! For anyone who doesn’t know, read the book or other similar discourses on the subject. Men generally think differently than women. Women know this and are raised with this knowledge. Men tend to either not know or are just plain ignorant of the fact. Women … well, if men were “well-read” on various religious, philosophical and mythological narratives, us men would garner a lot more perspective ….

Amen, Jon. Well said.

girls aren’t that weird some can be pretty nice

I’m a female as well, hate shopping with a passion (especially shoe shopping), don’t understand football, but enjoy the Superbowl…. I’d prefer to be weird or abnormal any day of the week, more fun than being normal… also, what IS normal??? :D

this could be a great gmg

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, if everyone wasn’t weird, life would be very BORING!

And when did Garfield acquire wisdom?

I say the more women AND men I meet, the more and more I like my cats LOL. They don’t talk back and tell me colorful medifors for what I can do to myself (at least not in a launage I speak) and they are easy to keep happy. food, water, string and a little rubbing now and then.

Normal is just a setting on a washing machine!

But ‘Wisdom’ won’t help.

Weirdness is a good thing, makes life interesting.

…or in Jon’s case, gives us something to laugh at.

This would make a fair G-G one day. Not a very funny one, but it would make sense. I prefer the G-G when it has Jon all whacked out weird and psycho.

Hi kab2rb, welcome to the group! Thanks for adding, it’s always good to have new folks! Enjoy!

When I was young, I thought girls were weird. When I was teenage, I strongly suspected they were weird AND liked tormenting guys. When I married my wife, I KNEW women were weird! Now that I have two daughters, it’s WEIRD CUBED!! Would someone PLEASE explain the irresistability of horses and all things pink?!?
