Garfield by Jim Davis for September 11, 2022

Saying that a lady is gaining weight. Not cool, guys.

By this point, I forgot Liz was a veterinarian

dang it, huh, Garfield and Odie?

Nice subtle change from panel 2 to 3. Notice the subtle movements between them which may be missed if unobserved. In panel right after title panel, Garfield and Odie looking at each other and in next panel they subtly turn their look at Liz.

ok… this is scary

Oy! Doctor Dolittle is in da house!

Is Garfield being catty?

Watch it with the catty remarks.

Whoaa :0

A descendant of the original John Dolittle perhaps? ;D

Liz will see to it that Garfield and Odie will get their shots

Pot calling the kettle Garfield… Pot calling the kettle…

I was in a McDo’s in the centre of France… some French kids at the next table were slagging of their English prof, in French… As I was leaving, I leaned across “If you understand what I’m saying, she can’t be that bad a prof”… Expressions very similar to Garfield and Odie in panel six…

Garfield, you really have no right to judge someone for their weight. After all, you’re not exactly in the greatest shape ever.

Tweet tweet? Twitter twitter. Chirp!

Notice that she didn’t mention about her lip injections

My brother Mark is half Irish and half English and looks it. He has very white skin and turquoise blue eyes. He now lives and works in Spain and has done since 1994 and as a result his Spanish is excellent. One summer he was outside a cafe having his lunch when 2 men in a table opposite began talking about how much they hated the English tourists as they were always so loud and the way they took over the towns in the summer and even worse the ones who settled here to live. They even pointed over towards Mark and made some disparaging remarks about him.When he finished his coffee Mark got up, Went over to those people, and in his fluent Spanish told the men that tourism brings a lot of much needed money and jobs into the town and they should be grateful as he was as he was the head chef in a local hotel. The look of surprise when they realised that Mark was not only a fellow resident but also spoke fluent Spanish was priceless.

nice surprise there Liz. :)

Since when is Odie that sneaky? Garfield must be rubbing off on him.

Good one, Liz…

Yay, Liz! Good one.

Gossip is not a cool thing.

It’s like when, in TV or films, someone insults someone in a foriegn language (or in English to a tourist) only to feel slightly awkward when the person they slagged off speaks said language

Maybe Liz can tell Jon what Garfield and Odie are saying.

Garfield and Odie had better watch it next time, or Liz will recommend both a new diet plan.

Engage brain then engage mouth if necessary.

Jon does occasionally react to Garfield’s remarks, despite not actually hearing him.

most excellent

We’ve known Liz for how long and we’re just learning that she can understand Garfield and Odie??

Never underestimate the hidden powers of an experienced vet.

When are Jon and Liz getting married?

I can see Jon making that an even worse situation

heh, nice spin on the “insulting a person by speaking another language next to them, only to be shamed when that person is fluent in the language” trope…hm, that’s a really specific name for a trope but I stand by it.

The Incredible Dr. Wilson!

she is Dr Dolittle, people.

Well played, Liz.

She’s a Brunette….since WHEN do Blondes and Redheads changeTHEIR hair colors to Brunette? (outside of hollyweird folks going for a part or people on the run or in witness protection)

That scared them good.

That’ll teach Garfield and Odie to mess with Liz!

This comic strip confirms that not only Odie can talk to Garfield (which he wasn’t able to before), and that Liz can talk to Garfield and Odie, and also means Odie is smart enough to think talk to Garfield, but also that pets could be able to speak fluent English but choose not to! (even if Garfield hinted to that on https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1992/07/02). The lore!!!!!

Yeah, it’s about time we took Liz down a peg or two! Fat!

Cat’s and Dog’s, can be sooo, hypocritical.

Liz is most likely to be skinny.

They were smart to run

Garfield and Odie’s expressions: HOW DID SHE GETS THAT?!?!?!?

9/11 date, many kind people were lost in the accident-may they all go to heaven. RIP

It would seem they thought they could pull a fast one on ol’ Liz.
