Garfield Minus Garfield "is a site dedicated to removing Garfield from the Garfield comic strips in order to reveal the existential angst of a certain young Mr. Jon Arbuckle."
The results are a consistently hilarious, fine-standing example of what has become possible in our postmodern/nonsensical/pop-culture-familiar world.
But you know what? I cannot help but feel a lingering sense of melancholy as I watch Jon in his decontextualized world. The fruits of Garfield Minus Garfield are at once humorous and poignant - tendencies characteristic of life itself.
Poor Jon. That cat was your life.
