> 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.

One of my favorite additions by subtraction:

Removing the laugh track from the big bang theory

I've never really enjoyed this show but I found myself liking this clean version much more.

It feels slower and more natural. It also helps because I wouldn't have laughed at any of those spots with it without laugh track.
