Strip by: Maverick Mopete

Garfield: Welcome to "Garfield's Silent Theater."
{The strip changes to greyscale, like an old movie.}
{Jon is reading the newspaper and talking.}
Silent Film Text Box: "The world is constantly changing."
{Garfield looks surprised.}
{Garfield reads the paper over Jon's shoulder.}
Silent Film Text Box: "They haven't stopped making frozen pudding pops, have they?"
{The strip returns to colour.}
Garfield: You have been watching "Garfield's Silent Theater."

The author writes:

How do you take something everyone on Square Root of Minus Garfield has beaten to the ground and give it a unique twist? Just follow this four step guide:

  1. Find an overused meme on Square Root of Minus Garfield.
  2. Combine it with another overused meme on Square Root of Minus Garfield.
  3. Give it just enough of a twist so that it's "new," but don't twist it so far that it doesn't make sense to the reader.
  4. Profit! (Not really, since this is a non-profit site, but hey.)
So how did I follow this guide?
  1. I used the "Pudding Pops" Meme.
  2. I combined it with the "Garfield's X Theater" Meme.
  3. I twisted it into a Silent Film Parody and made it "Garfield's Silent Theater," which hopefully makes sense to all of the readers here.
  4. I profited! (Not really)
So get out there and start finding your own memes to mash together in a new and creative way!
