 I’m not even really sure where to start with this but I will attempt to summarize. For maximum entertagement, I strongly recommend you read the original thread located here …but I will attempt to give you the CliffsNotes version of it: What began as one man’s quest to sell Garfield-shaped pizzas to the masses as the world’s youngest Garfield licensee has become the pinnacle of cutting-edge entertagement. The restaurant itself was located in downtown Toronto, featured mobile app ordering, and a video of Garfield-creator, Jim Davis speaking on an endless loop blaring through speakers while inside. If you can make it more than 2 minutes into the following video, then buckle up! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ys9Q3PQH_nQ  Food and Wine Magazine did a nice(?) write-up of GarfieldEats which you can read here The establishment’s proprietor, one Mr. Nathen Mazri is the GOB Bluth-like son of an extremely wealthy middle eastern businessman. He also has impeccable taste in suits:   Sadly, GarfieldEats wasn’t meant to be and was shuttered due to COVID, landmonsters and the extremely limited market for terrible pizza in the shape of Garfield’s head along with lasagnas with orange sauce (no, really).  Not to worry though because Mr. Mazri was just getting started! Here are some highlights from the previous thread. Note that some of this will be difficult to document as Nathen tends to immediately forget about projects once he starts them and lets associated media evaporate into the ether: Nathen wrote a book entitled “Arabiolosis”. A summary and discussion begins here. At some point, Viacom acquired the license to Garfield from Jim Davis. At first, Nathen was cautiously optimistic about retaining his license for the Garfield IP, however Viacom took one look at what Nathen was doing with Garfield and immediately terminated his license. Nathen did not take this well. The prevailing theory is that they saw THIS (Warning: Extremely NMS), and that was the end of that. While in mourning, Nathen founded ScoobyEats which sold An extremely awkward talk show? I hear people asking "What is Eegeez" all the time and man, let me tell you Nobody knows! Not even Nathen! Farm2plate deodorant? The wonderful world of NFTs Not weird enough for you? Witness the birth of Nathfield! He is here to cleanse this bitch of an earth! Exhibit 1 Exhibit 2 Exhibit 3 Nathen tries to make a Garfield dark comedy movie/documentary without a Garfield license. He had Steven Spielberg attached to direct and a soundtrack by Nick Cave. The dating show where the winner will marry Nathen The Nathfield project is scaled down from a cartoon to a podcast/radio play-type thing with voice actors he hired off of Fiverr. It can be found on both Spotify and Apple Play and I will warn you ahead of time that they are utter lunacy. Only 3 episodes were ever made (so far) but summaries of these can be found starting here: Episode 1 Summary Episode 2 Summary Episode 3 Summary Garfield-related paraphernalia auction including the magical orange suit. Finally, that brings us to the present where NathenEATS! has launched which is an art exhibit and not a restaurant. I hope you enjoy Cereal boxes and coloring This thread only has a couple rules that mostly go without saying (but y’know, goons): • Do not touch the poop – IE Don’t bother Nathen IRL, don’t join his discords, don’t participate in anything that could be construed as harassment. Just leave him and his many, many projects alone. The one exception to this is that you may marry Nathen if he will have you. • Don’t turn this into Kiwifarms. Nathen is undeniably weird and holds some reprehensible opinions, but mean-spirited bullshit isn’t funny.  Here there be dragons. Peruse this thread at your own risk

Also, a warning for any newcomers: if you buy Nathen's art or memorabilia, there is a likelihood that he will doxx you. All the more reason to leave the weirdo alone!

If I've learned anything this from the previous thread, it's that whatever is next will be incredibly stupid, deeply confusing, possibly offensive, and hysterical. Also that none of us is capable of even imagining what new madness he'll unleash upon us.

I’m holding out hope that Nathen releases a “NATHEN MAZRI REACTS TO: GARFIELD (2024)” YouTube video that exceeds the runtime of the actual film. He does not need to create a thumbnail of him doing a 😱 face over a still from the movie; the picture of him duck-lips-kissing the Garfield plush will serve the same purpose.

I find it fascinating how they're closed on Mondays, ostensibly as a nod to the recurring joke about Garfield hating Mondays. The joke never made sense in the first place, because Garfield is a house cat who of course doesn't have a job and therefor has no reason to feel one way or the other about Mondays, but Jim Davis's brain is made of pure anticomedy so he just shoehorned the joke in on the presumption that readers would enjoy it because they can relate. But now we have the Garfield Eats store whose only day off is Monday, meaning it should now be Garfield's favorite day. The joke catastrophically fails on two distinct levels. The original, fundamentally flawed punchline is stabbed in the back by the second, which turns out to be just as stupid. It's honestly kind of impressive.

A. The OP starting with Fork Jail is perfect. We are all in fork jail. B. I think the OP should have an added disclaimer for Arabialosis (or however it’s spelled) that he kisses his cousin in the book.

I should also mention that better than half of the projects listed in the OP either never got off the ground or were abandoned immediately without fanfare or explanation immediately after launch. The dating game would have been awesome but it never got past sign-ups. A reasonable amount of money and effort(?) was spent on the podcasts only to be abandoned after episode 4 was teased and then never spoken of again. Oh and there was also a huge “clean label” website that appeared in tandem with NathenEats where he had some folks on the board who seemed more “serious” for lack of a better term. Their aim was to lobby the FDA in the US for better food labeling requirements which was a little odd since they were all Canadian but whatever. It too just vanished one day with no explanation.

Garfield Eats crashed and burned. There's a dozen youtubers who have all done dives on it, and even eaten the food. However, as a rich, out of touch manchild Nathan Mazri will not be stopped, and has launched his newest IP: ScoobyEats, with you guessed it, Scoob Doo. Allegedly some of the lasagna being sold by the cartoon dog is the same deep frozen pre-made pasta that belonged to the cartoon cat, re-awakend from it's cryogenic slumber
