I have an officially licensed tattoo of Garfield pissing down my rear end crack as a tramp stamp and he says 'Eat My Shorts'. But my back was sorta weird when they did it so it looks like 'shirts' which doesn't make much sense but I emailed Bill Watterson regarding it and he hasn't weighed in on his opinion on profiting off body art no matter how good it is but I assure you he's read it. The email. I dunno if he read the tattoo yet. I hope so. Well anyway that's some portion of MY take on the war of cartoon strip licensing. Thank you.

Dilbert is the incel Garfield. While he may have taken longer to get his own show, Dilbert actually beat Garf to making branded food.

Gary Larson, Bill Watterson, et al are huge recluses because they're enormous perverts whose shame colors their every thought and action and them being performatively principled is a result of that. When Watterson dies there's definitely going to be a huge locker full of sketches of weird porn along with his rambling manifestos about the newspaper syndicates controlling everything and the world falling apart because people drive instead of cycling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNU5Ivpbwew&t=477s By comparison, Jim Davis has nothing to be ashamed of and no pretensions of what he does. He is a humble and free man who likes to make people smile with a fat cartoon cat who tells jokes.

pseudanonymous posted:This is an interesting take. Have you considered that the reason there are no Garfield pissing on things stickers is that nobody gives a poo poo about Garfield other than laughing at the existence of Garfield? And Watterson absolutely proactively took control of his creation, he didn't want it merchandized. I would say Davis sold out, but I don't feel like cartoons about a fat cat that hates Mondays are really artistic to begin with it's just an inexplicable thing that caught on. *places a sticker of Calvin pissing on your reply*

alright, so i officially got sick of waiting for forums poster "thots and prayers" to return to the goddamn thread and publish some of the wacky facts from the garfield restaurant entrepeneur, and i really wanted to find out what the garfield restaurant entrepreneur said about his entergaging princess diana conspiracy theory so I spent the $4.98 on the loving book and here is the whole conspiracy .garfield restauranteur maniac ebook posted:On New Year’s Day of 2014, I landed in London’s Stansted airport and a mini cab driver was waiting for me at the arrivals holding a white paper with my full name. I embarked in the mini cab under the gloomy rainy and mundane grey clouds, heading to Heathrow airport to fly out to Montreal after five hours and I started conversing with the driver, asking him about William and Kate and what do the people think of them in London as they are always under the spotlight these days – especially with the new born baby. The driver said: “oh, they are just fabulous…but you know, since Diana’s death, nothing has been the same and the trust from the citizens has deteriorated towards the Monarchy ever since they planned her death.” I wasn’t surprised, but told the driver please do tell me more. ”You will be shocked,” the driver responded, “are you ready? next up i'm going to find his saudi arabia poem but if any goon has any requests about crazy ctrl+f poo poo i can find in this ebook i'll happily post them here

quote:Love is a lengthy process, similar to a vineyard when making the best wine, taking time to pasteurize itself for the love of the people. The longer it lasts, the more lovely it is to drink and better. Love can’t be pushed, cajoled, or rushed. It is a deep emotion that is reacted upon differently by every person and we can’t expect people to react the same way we believe they should according to some stereotyped depiction of love. We all show it in our own unique colors and we must simply look into these details, understand, appreciate and give back love so the universe will assist in manifesting nothing but that in return.
