Bumper sticker - what did Garfield do

“Take me now lord”

~Garfield

Aren’t most orange cats male?

No but all cats are female and all dogs are male. I thought everyone knew that.

Yes, but there are plenty of female ones too. The females have to inherit an orange gene from both parents (otherwise they’d end up calico or tortoiseshell), but that’s not super-rare.

80%.

I actually have a Garfield. Ginger cat, male, fat (23 pounds), attitude. His name is Logan and he can have my leftover pizza when he pries it from my cold, dead hands

It’s generally considered wise to restrict use of that phrase to those who do not have razor-sharp retractable claws.

IMO, Garfield being male was established clear back in 1978. In the linked strip, he uses a male pronoun referring to himself. I’ve been a Garfield fan since the early 1980s (when he finally reached my rather rural area), and have never thought there was any question of his gender.

Apparently, about 80% are.

Anytime, anyone hates a fictional cartoon character they are clearly not playing with a full deck.

To go so far as to get a bumper staying so, you’re nuts.

Further nitpick - Giles Corey was pressed to death trying to make him enter a plea.

Never heard of Garfield Goose, I see.

Yeah in my head I distinctly remember Lorenzo Music using himself in reference to… Himself.

Sounds like they were ridding themselves of the town nuisance more than anything. Nonetheless, you have to give the bastard props for, “more weight”.

I had no idea about this Garfield silliness and would have assumed it was some reaction to a contemporary comment by Jim Davis, like recent attention toward Scott Adams.

Is JarJar a cartoon character? Arguable but one thing that is not arguable is his unpopularity.

If he wouldn’t enter a plea, they couldn’t take his property. If he pled and was then convicted, they could. Obviously if he was dead he couldn’t have it either – but his heirs could. He was saving his property for his sons.

That’s what people say.

Logan the cat, or Logan the X-man?

You guys are reading way too much into this. The sticker isn’t a protest about gender identity or anything about Jim Davis’ politics- it’s just absurdism for its own sake. The physical equivalent of a shitpost, if you will.

Like these;

There’s at least one example of a fictional character named Garfield who predates the cat. Garfield Logan, aka Beast Boy, first appeared in 1965. He was a member of the Doom Patrol and the Teen Titans.

For that matter, he also predates the other Logan as well. Wolverine’s first appearance was in 1974.

Agreed. I talk to my cat all the time, she’s a Siamese so she often talks back.

And also to my books and iPad. No plants or dogs though.
