Home alone, bored and wasting away...

Depressing title I know but it's not about me. It is about the poor man in the Garfield comics!
Garfield is a cat so he isn't real company for a person to live with day in and day out without looking like a total saddo. But he is the main character of the comic strips! So we pay attention to him and not this mans life. (Poor guy I don't even know his name...)

Anyway this site (http://garfieldminusgarfield.net/) documents the comic strips daily without Garfield himself in them. Pointless as it is all you see is the poor mans life day in and day out talking to himself. You read and feel as if you are witnessing one of those social retards who can quickly spiral into depression and even at points he seems on the verge of depression!

OF COURSE HE IS THE OTHER CHARACTER IS MISSING!!

That as the case may be is true but no more comforting to me as I said earlier Garfield is only a cat. Not a person who he speaks to everyday. And watching him talk to nothing in these comics as if somebody is there is as good as talking to a cat in real life. In this context it is a seriously depressing outlook on a mans life.

On another note there is an ad on that site for a different web comic called Curvy. It has a lovely art style and an intriguing premise in the beginning but it quickly, and for no reason lead to lesbian sex... As a quirky web comic it worked fine but then it just threw in sex scenes for no reason at all. These frequented the comic here and there and disrupted the story. Even though it was a ridiculous story it felt so different I wanted to read it but REALLY if you want pointless sex scenes in a comic make one based around that and don't ruin an otherwise quirky, interesting storyline. But if you can look past that and read on you get pulled in enough to forget about the sex subject only for it to fly into your face later with all the grace and impact of a wet flannel.
