Garfield by Jim Davis for August 16, 2021

What’s “running”?

How do you pull a muscle while running?

I have missed those “boca grande” moments. Good one.

Very cold of you, Garfield – but not the sort of ice that will help Jon.

I’M NOT CRAMPA !!!

That’s what happens, when you overdo exercises.

Well, a mussel is a bivalve sea creature similar to a clam, a scallop, and an oyster.

Sad.

The first panel is me years ago; the second panel is me now; the third panel is me wondering what happened.

You left him a cramp! Great job, Garf.

The only muscle Garfield use is his stomach

Good set of teeth you have Jon…..

Garfield is the future of society!

Pulled a muscle eh? Ouch.

A muscle is that thing Jon has in his head.

Both groin and leg, pulled muscles.

You can ask the question “Will Jon get hurt today?” but also add the words How, What, Where, When and Why at the start too.

Isn’t it usually Garfield who has the bad Monday experience?

Maybe Jon should lie down. Take a page from Garfield’s book.

I once pulled a mussel! Do not go into a fishmongers drunk!

At first I thought Garfield said “What muscle?”

Jon didn’t even make it to the door, it’s a Monday for him.

Now that’s concerning

First thought was that he must have skipped his stretching exercises. Then realized it must have happened while stretching.

“AH, RUNNING!” “AH, INACTIVITY”

(senses very expressive dialogue)

The only muscles Garf uses are for eating.

No wonder Garfield dislikes physical exercise of any kind, he wants to avoid hurting himself in any way. Unless the running exercises involves chasing the ice cream truck or the pizza delivery truck, or even the mailman.

a muscle is a part of what you need to EAT!

LOL!

Garfield has the right idea!!! After all James F. Fixx, who spurred on the jogging craze with his best-selling books about running. Died of a heart attack, while on a little jog in Vermont. He was 52 years old.

In Jon’s case, a pulled muscle can’t be a very big deal.

That set of teeth do depict muscle pull in its dimensions.

Jon’s favorite machine at the gym is the TV.

Wait let me get this strait Jon pulled a muscle I didn’t even know he had one!

Wow Jon that is some set of teeth.

Inactivity, sounds just like all conservative governments, they do nothing and still get paid to do nothing.

Is Garfield a politician ?

Jon should know better than to do anything on a Monday.

OOOOOH BURNED!!!!!
