Garfield by Jim Davis for May 20, 2012

oh nooo.

That’ll teach you to sleep on a date.

You definitely do not want to disrespect Arlene. You WILL pay for it.

A more awful date would be the dude sleeping in front of the movie/play/opera… IN THE THEATRE! (I, a dude, know I don’t snore at all.)

Acorn doesn’t fall far from the tree, eh Garfield?Arlene & Liz are going to start the Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Sorry – “Hell hath no fury”, etc. is a misquote, and it’s not from the Bard – it’s from William Congreve’s “The Mourning Bride” as below (from Wikipedia).

Two of Congreve’s turns of phrase from The Mourning Bride (1697) have become famous, albeit frequently in misquotation:“Music has charms to soothe a savage breast,” which is the first line of the play, spoken by Almeria in Act I, Scene 1. (The word “breast” is often misquoted as “beast”, and “has” sometimes appears as “hath”.)“Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned,” spoken by Zara in Act III, Scene VIII.1 (This is usually paraphrased as “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”)

Love hurts.

Hey Garfield I can see the future! and I see that she is NEVER going out with you again so if you want to date her again you gonna have to wait for a time machine to fix that.

WHOOPS Gaarfield.

Believe me…there is a much worse time to fall asleep with a lady.

So Garfield and John DO have something in common.

And nobody knows that he suffered insomnia the previous night, was chased by a big dog all morning just to get lost and wander about aimlessly all afternoon…

Welcome back Arlene, Davis should bring back Lyman next, hell he could get 2 weeks of amnesia jokes out of it.

Oh Garfield!

Well that done it.

LOL xxx

This brings new meaning to the Joan Jett song “Love Hurts”.

Reminds me of those people who go to a Planetarium show and fall asleep then start in snoring and annoy others…

Sleeping isn’t part of the date??? Then why all the fuss about sleeping together? Did you? … You didn’t? … ad nauseum.

I think Garfield may be just as inept at dating as his owner, if note moreso.

how is it that its okay for women beat men but not the other way around
