> Garfield Minus Garfield is a site dedicated to removing Garfield from the Garfield comic strips in order to reveal the existential angst of a certain young Mr. Jon Arbuckle. It is a journey deep into the mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness and depression in a quiet American suburb.

Did not think I would be relating to Jon on a Thursday morning.

Now it makes me wonder what would happen if you did something like removing all the superheroes from a movie.

or took soem movies and made all the villains super-attractive and the heroes ugly and dressed in black.

This is the first thing that came to mind for me as well. Have always loved how mean everyone seems without the canned laughter to tell us "hey, this is funny!"
