Garfield by Jim Davis for November 18, 2022

She doesn’t want a tough guy, Jon. She wants you, and that’s all that matters.

Liz has a goofball. That of course is you, Jon.

Thanks for the dose of reality, Garfield!

Oooohhh, Mr. McJon, you’ve screwed it up again.

my, Jon, are you dense

Truthfully, Liz doesn’t know why she is here.

Apparently you don’t because of the fact that you are there, and Jon’s cat is tougher than he is.

Jon, common sense involves two dimes a penny and a nickel and maybe a lint ball

Jon just got sucker punched, by Liz.

She likes wimpy guys. Otherwise why would she be with you?

John should be happy Liz likes him the way he is. Besides, tough guys too often turn out to be bullies.

Jon never was the sharpest pencil in the box.

If Jon cooked Tough roast beef do you think Garfield would still be here?

Jon didn’t take the hint the right way.

she must be a REO Speedwagon fan……….

yes and no…as she doesn’t care about them and you AREN’T ONE AT ALL..

I think that’s a compliment.

I feel like that might be an example of a back-handed compliment

Actually Liz, Why are you here? That is the least believable thing that has ever happened in this comic

Awww Liz is a sweetheart

Sometimes it’s kind to answer a question with a question – and keep them questioning.

There is the Macho Tough, and then there is the quiet I am going to get up, do what needs to be done and protect you, and not complain, every day, tough.

Ouch.

But he had it coming

Well, dammnn, but he truth hurts

She likes your soft, sensitive side, Jon. It’s easy to find, too, it’s on all sides.

Liz realizes that even brainless, spineless jelly fish need love too.

“WOULD I BE HERE IF I DID?”

(imagines a different version of this part of the dialogue of this cartoon)

IF I DID, I WOULD HAD NOT BEEN HERE

Considering how Jon would often get beaten up by guys bigger than himself, then perhaps the best weapon would be using your brains, which unfortunately, Jon doesn’t have very much of.

She likes him, Jon is just putty in her hands.

She’s partial to dorks.

As I said previously, Jon you better marry that girl!

Lis has sweet spot for goof balls in heart

Not even a back-handed compliment. You got burned, John.
