Garfield by Jim Davis for January 15, 2024

If we had one Monday per year, it would still be too many!

Instead of Monday, it should be Moanday

VERY

This year we even have 53 Mondays! The horror…..

Guess what, Garfield, Monday occurs 53 times this year! Do you think you’ll survive it?

Time for another coffee……

I know Garfield, I know.

That’s a week excuse for your attitude, Garf.

Why does a cat gripe about Mondays?

At least there is always Tuesday.

But for every Monday there is a Saturday and a Sunday.

It is a Monday Federal Holiday which means Tuesday is going to be extra Monday.

I know its a leap year but February 29 is not a Monday.

There should be a second Sunday instead

Warm or hot coffee/chocolate sounds good on this cold Monday!

There will be 53 Mondays this year.

But it’s MLK Day, Garfield! Doesn’t the holiday count for something?

If Garf would cease distinguishing days, Monday would not matter

If you ask me, January is excessive. One per year is too much.

If not for the American football playoffs, January is not for me.

Boo hoo hoo. Well, for those of us who have a major work day on Sunday, like pastors, Monday is a day off. What joy. In a little while, I’ll be putting together my Monday breakfast of a bacon/cheese quiche with hot lemon tea.

just another manic monday

But 2023 only had 51 Mondays.

someone has to say it: why would a cat hate Mondays?

The Monday Good News: It is a National Holiday. No Work. The Monday Bad News: Single Digit Temps Out and Below Zero Wind Chills. Brass Monkeys Have All Been Brought Indoors and Witches are Wearing fur Lined Brassieres.

It’s blue Monday today, the most depressing day of the year.

I guess the significance of today being MLK Jr. Day doesn’t mean anything to Garfield.

Well, Garf, that’s life.

And 2024, a leap year that starts on a Monday, has 53 MONDAYS!

Monday, Monday, can’t trust that day

Would every other week work for you?

What about 2024? It’s a leap year. <No, I didn’t bother to look.>

just barely enough to traumatize you, Garfield.

Boring 52 times per year, that seems a little excessive…

One time there were 53 times. The way I heard it is that 52 is not an exact number when it comes to the number of days in a year. When you divide 365 by 52, you get an extra day which means some years have 53 Mondays in them.

Would it be any better if you called them Tuesday eve?

No matter what you call it the day after a weekend would still have the day after the weekend! LOL ;)

Sometimes you get 53 in a year! (2024 is one such year.)

Yeah sure is a tough life being a cat.

I have a surprise for you, Garfy! THIS year, you get……..can I get a drum roll please?……..an EXTRA MONDAY!!!!! Aren’t you just one lucky devil?

That’s the way it works, Garfield, so suck it up, fatty!

Total agreement!

we are friday on the outside, monday on the inside, the world we live

This reminds me of my pet peeve about the calendar. We have one day off at the beginning of the week and another day off five days later at the end of the week. Would it really be too much to ask to have two days off in a row? :) :) :)

I’ve got even worse news for Garfield, there are 53 Mondays in 2024.

Garfield drink your coffee and go back to bed at least you don’t havetowork

#abolishmondays

Let’s change to a 4 day, 32 hour work week.

Garfield’s wisdom is true and it is not possible to question it (especially when he talks about Monday)!

Yep!
