Explanation[edit | edit source]

This strip's author's notes tend to explain this strip's premise; the title implies Jon wears flavored ties.

The strip proper is, in fact, identical to 5732: Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right; the differences between this strip and #5732 are a different title, two lines of the author's notes (the non-dialogue lines leading into the second and third panels), and a few added words to the author's notes (the clause "Jon has a job at night, while" is present in this strip but not #5732). This may suggest that this strip was intended as a revision to the non-strip file elements of #5732 only for the entire presentation to be misfiled as a distinct strip and run as such (a scenario similar to #4554/#4617, only with more drastic differences outside the strip proper in this scenario).

The author writes:[edit | edit source]

In this alternate universe, Jon has a job at night, while Garfield takes classes at an educational institution (school, college, etc.) and has a bad habit of eating non-food items like Jon's clothes (purposefully, unlike vanilla Garfield whose instances of eating clothing were accidental).

Original strip: 1985-11-08.

Transcript[edit | edit source]
