Garfield: Oh boy, oh boy, oh BOY... Just five more days till Christmas! Only five! ...Of course, I don't need to count Christmas DAY, so that'd make it FOUR... And TODAY'S almost half over, so if I don't count IT, that's THREE... Then figure three days of sleep, at sixteen hours a day... Eighteen...carry the one...divided by 24... It's CHRISTMAS EVE! Jon: You're wearing a groove in the table.

That joke is taken from a Seinfeld episode where Elaine is forced to stay at Jerry’s parents’ place for 5 days. (“The Pen”) The Seinfeld bit was taken from an Abbott & Costello bit called “Give me my money.”

Hi, Derek. If you walk back and forth over a place long enough, your feet will will make a path in the surface. A groove is like a deep line in the surface of something. Hope that helps.
