5638: Everything would taste better
Everything would taste better |
![]() Made by: bobfasul |
Explanation[edit | edit source]
In the original, Garfield said that "anything would taste better than" a carrot, and proceeded to eat his food bowl rather than subject his taste buds to the taste of a carrot. This edit changes "anything" to "everything", and so he eats everything... except carrots, which have gathered into clusters that could be confused with stars. (Perhaps they will be.)
Imagine the scope of this. Garfield has become an omnivore in almost the truest sense of the word. Not only has Garfield eaten all the food everywhere (except carrots), but he's eaten all the non-food, including everyone who could have eaten that food, and every toxic substance in the universe.
The author writes:[edit | edit source]
Those are no stars. They are carrots left over from what used to be a planet.
Canonically, the events of SRoMG #4291 happen between the second and third panel.
