5786: Garfield's Meme Theater
Garfield's Meme Theater |
![]() Made by: PartyEscortBotBeans |
Explanation[edit | edit source]
Based on the second paragraph of the author's notes, it is implied that this strip was first submitted prior to 2628: Another Step Further, where the Square Root of Minus Garfield top brass moved to curb the "Doog" running gag, and that what became 3686: Express Yourself... Made Funnier (by the same author as this strip) had already been made and submitted prior to this strip's submission; this interpretation is supported due to two factors, one being the lack of any mention of the "Linguistics with Liz" running gag, which was full-steam at the time #3686 first ran, the other being the inclusion of a paragraph in the author's notes resembling the old-style Square Root of Minus Garfield crediting system that was already scrapped by the time #3686 first ran. (Based on the creativeness of the paragraph mimicking the old-style crediting system, it was retained when re-created for this very wiki along with the current-style credits; the latter also includes several original Garfield strip credits the faux-old-style "credits" do not.)
The author writes:[edit | edit source]
Originally, I had the eyes of Garfield animated at the end, but I couldn't get it animated. Stupid gif-making sites.
Oh, and please, end the "Doog" meme already. It started just recently, but I'm already really tired of it.
