2874: April Fools!

==Explanation==
This strip has its author pretend to be the actual mastermind behind the massive April Fools webcomic prank of the previous year. As such, this strip utilizes the dialogue used the previous year in over 50 different webcomics.
==The author writes:==
I was really proud of this joke, and I was going to put it up last year, but then I discovered that a lot of the other people I'd told about it ripped it off and it just made me too disheartened.
A year later, I'm still not any less disheartened, but I'm a lot more used to being disheartened, so it's okay.

Garfield Minus Garfield taken to the next level. :) It's wonderful how a change of notation can inspire new ideas.
My first idea was to do a pixel-by-pixel difference, (mod 256 if it comes out negative) but I think this way it's funnier; also I was too lazy to figure out how to manipulate bitmaps in Matlab. Anyone who wants to do it is welcome, because I almost certainly won't :)

2880: Regrets

==Explanation==
In the original, Garfield's musing was that he was forgetting something, and the denouement was that, last week, he had kicked Odie into next week, i.e. the week he was in when Odie landed on him.
In this edit, we learn that Garfield has mailed Odie off in a fit, only for Odie to fall on him. As it turns out, Odie had made it into the Equestrian parcel system, and not only has the parcel wagon flown back over the Arbuckle household in Indiana -- some of that glare may need to be reserved for Dizzy Twister and Merry May -- but Derpy Hooves (a.k.a. Ditzy Doo, Muffins) and Sunshower Raindrops (often just called Raindrops, especially since "Tanks For the Memories", in which it's revealed that a pony named Sunshower exists; she played straight mare to Clear and Open Skies) have failed to keep Odie from falling, or possibly jumping, out.
The scene mentioned is from "Feeling Pinkie Keen", in which Twilight discovers that Pinkie Pie has a series of involuntary movements that mean various things are about to happen, e.g. a twitching tail means something's about to fall. Twilight set about observing Pinkie, possibly in an attempt to disprove that it happens, only for the evidence to mount up, usually hitting Twilight, as in this scene, where several heavy objects fall on her. This is much like a scene in the Garfield & Friends episode "Monday Misery" in which Garfield goes to an empty field, thinking that nothing can happen to him there. But because it's Monday, a piano falls on him. The major difference -- aside from character -- is that Garfield & Friends makes no attempt to show where these objects came from.
==The author writes:==
This is based on a scene from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, wherein Derpy and Sunshower have accidentally dumped some of their cargo onto Twilight Sparkle.

2881: Hot Pepper Eating Contest

==Explanation==
In the original Garfield strip, Jon wants to challenge Garfield to a popcorn-eating contest, the punchline being that Garfield eats a full bowl instead of a single kernel at a time.
This edit mashes up the original strip with the 2000-09-17 strip, resulting in the characters eating hot peppers.

2883: "We're Bachelors, Baby" but every time they say "bachelors" it gets faster

==Explanation==
==The author writes:==
I put all of the "bachelors" comics from 2006 in one neat line, and then every time Garfield started saying "bachelors," I shortened the image by 200 pixels (about the length of one panel). The image cut off at the sixth comic.
Memes aside, here's something to think about: would this still work if the "bachelors" arc only lasted 5 days instead of 6? What if I included all the future "bachelors" strips as well? If I put every non-Sunday strip back-to-back, and shortened the entire strip by 200 pixels at the end of every individual strip, how long would it take for the dialogue to become unreadable? Would it still end at today's strip, or would it be cut off before then? If so, when would it be cut off?
I'm glad math still exists.

2884: One Long Movie

==Explanation==
This strip adds a gray beard to Jon's face, but is otherwise the same as the original. This may indicate that Jon has waited even longer before trying to do something about the seemingly interminable movie (that hasn't moved is quite some time).

2886: An Inevitable Sequel To 2691

:This article's title is incorrect due to technical limitations. The correct title is 2886: An Inevitable Sequel To #2691.
----
==Explanation==
In the original, the food was made of "gunk", and Garfield's reaction was not wide-eyed, as he expected as much. Here, the food is made of gong, or human waste, so Garfield's wide-eyed reaction and "EW." are entirely justified. His speculated use of bleach as an oral cleansing agent, however, is ill-advised and potentially fatal.
The reference in the author's note is to a sketch from a Horrible Histories TV show about gong farming.
==The author writes:==
"Look, "gong" means poo, and your family has been shovelling it up for generations!"

I love the original strip because of the possibilities of what will happen (or what Jon will jinx up) next. (In this case, a nuclear explosion.)

Jon: It's a gloomy day, but at least it isn't raining.
{At that moment, a rainfall starts pouring down. Garfield has slightly angered}
Jon: Well, at least it isn't snowing.
{The heavy rainfall then turns into a big snowfall. Odie and Garfield are in shock as they realize what is happening}
Jon: Well, at least it isn't hailing.
{You should know the drill, the snowfall turns into a big hail, hitting Odie's, Garfield's and Jon's heads}
Jon: Well, at least there isn't lightning.
{A lightning bolt then strikes a tree, splitting it apart. Odie becomes frightened.}
Garfield: {attempts to shut Jon's big mouth} How about stopping there, jinx-boy!
Jon: I'm glad I didn't mention a nuclear war.

2888: Neon Night Garfields

== Explanation ==
The strip is a reference to the Mario Kart series. Green Shells (which primarily appear in main series Mario games) and Spiny Shells (also called "Blue Shells") are items that frequently appear in these games. Green Shells, functioning similarly to what they do in main series games, are normally errant after being thrown, and will occasionally even hit whoever threw one; Spiny Shells, on the other hand, always target the player in first place, and they usually never miss (the Super Horn, introduced in Mario Kart 8, can destroy all shells, including Spiny Shells, before they hit the player).
Similarly to #2525 and #2727, the strip is titled after a level of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time, but contains no overt references to that game. The author's notes mention Cheryl Blossom, a character in the Archie Comics franchise.
== The author writes ==
I was gonna title it "Garfield Plus Mario Kart (Again)", but if I did, Cheryl Blossom would come after me. That chick is impossible to deal with. I wouldn't race against her in Mario Kart.
Original strip: .
== Transcript ==
{Garfield sticks his head out the window, while Jon narrowly avoids oncoming Green Shells} 
{Seeing how enlightened Garfield is, Jon sticks his head out as well, inexplicably avoiding more Green Shells} 
{Jon eventually gets hit by a Spiny Shell, proving that even the most skilled racers cannot avoid its wrath.} 
== Trivia ==
*Although the notes mention that the strip would've been titled "Garfield Plus Mario Kart (Again)", there was never a strip explicitly titled "Garfield Plus Mario Kart". It should be noted, though, that previous strips had made Mario Kart references before this one.

288: Garbert, Evil Director of Human Resources

==Explanation==
No explanation required: This strip simply substitutes Garfield in for Catbert, a character from Dilbert (as as his title states, he's a cat, he's evil, and he's director of HR for Dilbert's company).
==The author writes:==

==Trivia==
* 664, "Garfbert", is almost an exact duplicate of this strip, both using the same gimmick, and the same Dilbert strip (!).
* The link to the original Dilbert strip no longer works as originally intended due to the Dilbert site being restructured after that strip was dropped by its syndicate amidst its cartoonist's controversies.

2892: Garfield Plus Stupidity

==Explanation==
==The author writes:==
On the surface this strip is a minor modification of an existing strip. However I find it to be shockingly acceptable as a current Garfield strip. We have seen on many occasions that Garfield is capable of shocking stupidity and/or obliviousness, even walking into solid objects in some strips. On the level of being in-character this strip passes.
And on the level of humor this also meets the mark; increasingly over the years such 'obvious gags' have made appearances in the strip revolving around things like misspellings, grammar and suchlike.
And of course it's perfectly on par with SRoMG submissions and my intent to make SRoMG of the exact same quality as Garfield itself.

2899: Looks Like He Just Got Remaindered

==Explanation==
In the original strip, Jon wanted to enter Garfield into the show, but the man joked that they don't have a "fat" division. In this edit, he wanted to enter Longcat, a cat who was once photographed stretching out and gained a memetic mythology, into the show, prompting the man to joke that they don't have a "long" division.
"Long division" is the practice of showing one's work in the process of division, subtracting multiples of the divisor from parts of the dividend starting as far left as possible and moving one place value to the right each time, multiplying the difference by 10 and adding the next place value between each division. Once the ones place is done, the mathematician may continue dividing to get a decimal answer, take the leftover number (called a remainder) and make it the numerator in a fraction with the divisor as the denominator (some reduction may be desired), or leave the remainder as-is, placing it after an "r" or something to indicate that it is the remainder and not part of the rest of the number.

Entering Longcat into a cat show for the sake of a math pun? Yes. Yes.

289: Jon Snapped

==Explanation==
The author's note explains the concept well, so:
* The first non-title panel is from a strip in which Jon slipped on marbles for three panels before falling down.
* Panels 2, 4, and the final one are all from the same strip; after stepping on the edge of the bowl, Garfield warned Jon not to laugh... shortly before falling off the table, leaving Jon to try not to laugh about that as well; he failed, leading to the final panel's outcome.
* Panel 3 has Jon trying to get a steak back from Garfield after nearly losing it to Odie; his method prompted his date to flee, screaming.
* Panel 5 has Jon trying to force Garfield to exercise; he only managed to make Garfied do a bit of resistance training, as best, when trying to remove him from bed in the first place.
* Panel 6 is the oft-memed panel of Garfield being thrown through a window after he tried to make "improvements" to Jon's "hysterical" outfit.
==The author writes:==
Browsing through Garfield archives, I was a bit surprised how much the main characters abuse each other. Then it occurred to me that it would be rather funny to have an entire strip about Jon beating the sh*t out of Garfield. :) So here it is...
