Garfield by Jim Davis for October 01, 2023

And the Nobel Dumb Prize goes to…Jon Arbuckle!!!!!!!

Congratulations, Jon! You helped someone win big!

Jon’s famous in a bad way

More like IM-famous…

Humor: 2/10Creativity: 5/10 Characterization: 7/10 Overall: 14/30

And Jon won’t see a penny of all that.

Jon is a man that can do both

Someday the word “syndrome” will be added to the end of his name.

With “a bit more” cussing & cursing in the background the sounds could also come from me…

why does the title panel garfield look like the old garfield?

No wonder Garfield likes to spend most of his time indoors…it’s almost impossible to get leaf-wapped inside!

Infamous more like……

I mean, hey, any publicity is good publicity.

A meme in his own lifetime.

Shouldn’t “Name That Sound” be a radio show?

I was going to say I’ve never known someone who was an answer to a quiz question…and then I remembered I went to college with someone called Nurse…who pretended to be a doctor

Silly question. Who sent that picture of Jon to the TV show?

From being Jon Arbuckle famous and winning a trip and a car, I think I’ll take the latter.

Umm… Where and how they got the sounds?!

“YOU’RE PATHETIC”

(imagines a different version of this part of the dialogue of this cartoon)

AMAZING

Travis “The Swine” Kelce getting kicked to the curb by Taylor❤️Swift

The earliest humorous account I recall of someone trying to hang a picture is from Jerome K. Jerome’s Three Men in a Boat, 1889. “Uncle Podger” spends all day hanging a picture, disrupting the entire household and causing serious damage to the wall.

Jon’s 15 minutes of fame?

Will the show send Jon a commission for being the answer?

Being famous isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

He can be RICH and famous if he sues ’em for libel, and/ or defamation.

Never seen a laser guided leaf before.

Garfield’s right, Jon really is pathetic if his incompetence at hanging a picture is used as a “Name That Sound” game. He really needs to seek therapy to help him with his problems.

Great Title frame!

Reminds me of “my” theory, that the more of a hurry you are in, the more things seem to go wrong!!

More like Jon the klutz hanging a picture.

No wonder Jon is “Mr. All Thumbs”, look at how fat his fingers are! I’d like to see how fast he can type on a cell phone with those!

Glass half full

There is an abundance of examples of people on various social media who make it clear that the two are not at all incompatible.

Jon has gotten his Recognition

I laughed at the last panel more than I feel I should have.

I’m pretty sure “famous” is not the correct term.

Oh, good, so I’ve been hanging pictures correctly. Confirmed. Thank you.

This comment section constantly ripping into jon

lol

Since Jon apparently doesn’t recognize the contestant, where was he hanging a picture that some random stranger can recognize the sounds of the attempt?
