Garfield by Jim Davis for May 08, 2020

Arlene looks wierd in full face form

Wasn’t the Secret to Happiness Lasange?

Gotta love it when someone (especially Arlene) pulls off one of those “Can you believe what I have to put up with?” looks.

laughing at other’s expense can easily be arranged, Garfield, with Arlene about to pummel you

Schadenfreude

Sounds right. How do you think “America’s Funniest Home Videos” has lasted so long?

At least Garfield didn’t mention the gap between her teeth …

This is why slapstick comedy works. Laughing at other people’s pain. Sounds cruel but didn’t we all love Tom and Jerry or Looney Tunes or other slapstick shows as kids?

Laughing at those things come natural, Garfield!

with Odie and Jon around, Garfield must be real happy (at least according to HIS definition)!

But of course!

…or giving a coronavirus update, contradicting the REAL experts.

He must be referring to Jon

Garfield is all cat (except for the mouse thing).

Yeah, Garfield is such a hypocrite. He scoffs at Jon for not being man enough around Liz, yet when he’s around Arlene, he’s no better than Jon is.

So what did Jon do this time?

And it’s so funny when someone takes a crouch shot.

Laughter is always the best medicine, especially during tough times like this. #naturalmedicine :-)

I agree with Arlene. Hey Arlene, if you read this, I laugh at myself quite frequently.

Reminds me of the 2000 Year Old Man’s (Mel Brooks) observation on the difference between comedy and tragedy.

slapstick is still comedy
