Explanation[edit | edit source]

In the original strip, Jon tried to gain Ellen's sympathy by telling her he'd be dead in a week, but (predictably) failed. Here, it's turned into a reference to the Garfield parody Barfield Loses His Lunch, which predates SRoMG by a little over a year. Originally displaying simple toilet humor, it became an increasingly, unabashedly NSFW comic. The Barfield strip referenced here is one of the tamer examples.
