Explanation[edit | edit source]

This strip takes the 2015-01-06 original Garfield strip and edits Garfield's dialogue into a reference to a famed line from StarCraft, as well as pasting the head of the speaker of that line, Aldaris, over Garfield's head.

The methodology of pasting Aldaris's head, as well as the original Garfield strip used, may bring into mind the "intentional lazy edits" series of edits that had recently snowballed into an out-of-control running gag; however, as the methodology used for Aldaris's head long predates the running gag and there are no other visual cues, this strip cannot be proven to be part of the running gag. The actually-credited original Garfield strip is also incorrect, it was the one that ran the year after the actually-used Garfield strip; it is unknown whether this was an actual error or an allusion/link to the "intentional lazy edits" running gag.
