Explanation[edit | edit source]

This edit changes "Horror" to "Hoarder", indicating that it's a theater showcasing the excessive collection of items. The author used the searchable archive that existed at the time to find six different cookie jars:

  • The red one was one that Jon attempted to catch Garfield in the act of stealing (or stealing from) by installing a security camera. Garfield stole and sold the camera, used the money to buy more cookies, and ate the ones from the jar, as well.
  • The pink one was one that Garfield trapped his hand inside of by holding a cookie; he solved the problem by breaking the jar on Jon's head.
  • The green one was one that Jon prohibited Garfield to take the lid off of; he instead took the jar off the lid.
  • The tan one was one that he sought satiety from, as he felt he had a skinny cat inside him.
  • The yellow one with the red stripe was one that he decided to remove the stripe from and put on himself so that Jon would know to skip a step and put the cookies directly into their inevitable destination: Garfield himself.
  • The other yellow one was one that Garfield burped inside, giving away his location to the nearby Jon; Garfield claimed to be only crumbs.

His dialogue, originally "We're out of cookies!" was changed to "Cookies!"
