Garfield by Jim Davis for March 16, 2023

Warning: This comic strip may not be suitable for people on a diet! Hence the censoring.

I say Garfield was insulted

Notice it doesn’t say to protect the innocent!

Warning: Garfield will self-destruct on the talking scales in, 3 … 2 … 1 … !!! SMASH !!!

Before the holidays always remember to remove the batteries from your bathroom scale. Follow me for more dieting tips! XD

Garfield redacted to this with some confusion.

Garfield has nothing to be embarrassed about, you smart-mouth!

Insulieved

Meh, I think the original “I don’t do livestock” strip from 1985 was better

At the doc’s office yesterday I found that I weigh almost 10 pounds less if I set my purse down b4 stepping on the scale lol “what do you have in that thing?” -exclaimed the nurse, incredulously

“One at a time please”……

looks like it only has four digits, anyway

Garfield’s weight is a mystery that we will never know. Only imagine.

There’s the problem – the scale is using real numbers for a complex issue…

His weight is probably….. you don’t even want to know.

Your weight is fat!

Or: “I’m terribly sorry, that number is unlisted.”

probably insulted first…then relieved after destroying it.

Yes…

I know the feeling, bug guy. My scale didn’t give any numbers. So, either I was relieved, or sad when I realized I had just broke the scale. Actually, on the doctor’s scale I had just lost four pounds.

Or the classic, “One at a time, please…”

My bathroom scale is censoring my weight too. But then I never put the batteries in it.

I’m surprised that the scale never compared Garfield’s weight to that of an elephant.

He looks a lot like my cat, should have named him Buddha.

I think DeSantis redacted it because someone somewhere might feel a little uncomfortable.

I’d go with insulted, Garfield. No offense.

“Your weight is…” It wasn’t worth the wait.

i feel like i have seen this before

I heard a talking scale in a Bed Bath & Beyond loudly announcing the weight of a very obese woman trying it out.

Both…..

Both. Both is good.

You know it’s time to lose weight when your digital scale displays in scientific notation!

The same thought works with any censor!

Davis should do this. I decided not to wait for a day when it was appropriate.

I feel sorry for that scale, having to support all that weight.

Woah! Language, RX2!

The talking weighing machine is one of the most amusing part of this strip.
