Jon says he won't do a thing, then does that thing! Who does he think he is, our President-elect? Or if we go with our standard assumption that it is Garfield that represents the orange demagogue, does that mean Jon is Ted Cruz in this one? I mean, you tell me, because I have no fucking clue.

Episode 130 - Thursday, October 26, 1978

Being Jim Davis is the world's premiere daily Garfield chrono-cast. Our mission is to review and discuss each and every strip of the long-running syndicated comic series before eventually dying of old age. We hope you'll come along with us on this journey, and share in the laughter as we catalogue the daily adventures of everyone's favorite indolent feline through a lens of history, humor, and heuristics.
Each episode will be a thorough examination of a single strip. We'll place it in its historical context, then attempt to unravel the morals and meanings hidden under the surface. Finally, we'll consider the question of whether the strip stands the test of time. Above all, we promise to always present you with our sincere, personal, reaction to each Garfield comic strip.
Our only thought is to entertain you.
