I wonder - did PAWS hack that website in order to do that flashy thing? ---

> [@Mr. Blue Sky](#): > > I wonder - did PAWS hack that website in order to do that flashy thing? Probably not. Although legal teams do have many tricks up their sleeve, I don’t really think they include flashing backgrounds, techno music, and epilepsy warnings. ---

Davis totally sold out with that movie, what with the vet actually finding Jon attractive. They can make it up by having Jon drinking dog jizz in this one. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/random-garfield/342311.md?page=1)
