This one just doesn't make sense and we're sorry about that. Today's strip

Why are you reading this? Wouldn't you rather be reading about X-Men characters getting it on with each other? But you know, in a sexual way? Yeah, I thought so. Here, here's your link to our erudite co-host Amy's slash-fic page. For the rest of you, today Garfield hangs around and endures some petty whining from Jon in the first panel and then does a little bit of musing in panels two and three. It's a strip, I guess.

Despite all odds this podcast continues to exist. What did we talk about today? We talked about Garfield. Did you not know that? Today's strip

Oh boy, it's another dumb joke about some family member of Garfield's who will NEVER be mentioned again! Can't wait to find out what sort of forced facile wordplay and/or serious mental health condition will serve as the basis for this one. If you want to read something more artistically resonant and FAR better-edited, why not go over and check out guest host Amy's presumably delightful fan fiction? Seriously, why not? What the fuck's wrong with you?!? Today's strip

LIZ Jon let it on board. Jon let it grow inside the turkey. Jon blew the warning signal. LYMAN Why. LIZ Special Order 937. IRMA What's that. LIZ That's what I want to know. Jon's head is placed on the table. His eyes flicker into consciousness. LIZ What is Special Order 937. JON You know I can't tell you that. LIZ Then there's not point in talking to you. Pull the plug. JON Special Order 937 in essence asked me to direct the ship to the planet, investigate a life form, possibly hostile and bring it back for observation. With di

Today we welcome on the program our first mononymic co-host, Amy! She was a great sport, in that she did NOT bail on the recording when she found out after the first episode that we were planning on doing six more. We talked about the disturbing narcissism of Jon Arbuckle, his and Jim Davis' eagerness to gaslight his audience, and which parts of a cat it is and isn't OK to touch without verbal consent. Basically it's a thoroughly average episode. Today's strip

No, seriously, I don't listen to these even a little bit. Sometimes I look at the strips a little bit. Something about flowers today. Here's Kurt Vonnegut's drawing of an asshole. Today's strip

Spelling is the combination of alphabetic letters to form a written word. It is a linguistic process of correct writing with the necessary letters and diacritics present in a comprehensible, usually standardized order. While a part of a language's orthography, not all languages have purely phonemic alphabets. Standardized spelling is a prescriptive element. Spellings originated as transcriptions of the sounds of spoken language according to the alphabetic principle. They remain largely reflective of the sounds, although fully phonemic spelling is an ideal that most languages' orthographies only approximate, some more closely than others. This is true for various reasons, including that pronunciation changes over time in all languages, yet spellings as visual norms may resist change. In addition, words from other languages may be adopted without being adapted to the spelling system, and different meanings of a word or homophones may be deliberately spelled in different ways to differentiate them visually.

Today things take a dramatic turn when a series of events transpires, leading characters to have various motivations. What will that portend for the future? I don't know; I mainly watch Netflix while writing these. Today's strip

Here's yet another Garfield strip with no characters that possess mustaches. Today's strip
