{Garfield facing Nermal}
Garfield: Yep, I've eaten a lot of cats in my time.
Nermal: Really?
Garfield: Went to outer space once and ate nyancat.
Nermal {amazed}: Wow!
Garfield: Went back in time and ate Nermal, too.
Nermal {angry}: Oh no you didn't!
{Older Nermal facing a younger Garfield}
Nermal: Hello, Baby Garfield. I am Future Nermal.
Garfield: Really?
Nermal: I must eat you to stop an ontological paradox.
Garfield {excited}: Wow!
Nermal: Also, to prevent that lame punchline.
Garfield: {angry}: Not on my watch!
{Garfield facing Nermal again}
Garfield: Yep, I've eaten a lot of time travelers.
Nermal: Really?
Garfield: Ate your future self when I was just a lad.
Nermal {amazed}: Wow!
Garfield: Maybe I'll go back to 1978 and eat myself.
Nermal {serious face}: This won't end well.
{Nermal, alone, staring off into space}
{Nermal continues staring into space}
{Nermal vanishes}
SFX: Boink!

The author writes:

It goes ding when there's stuff. When the stuff ceases being stuff, it goes boink. Progress!

I thought it was about time (heh heh) this meme went off the rails. In a time-travelling locomotive, apparently.

And we mustn't forget the TV Tropes link.
