Screw this, I’m a cat: why I relate to Garfield the most

Who is the fictional character you relate to the most?

Copyright Jim Davis

I am, in so many words:

Lazy, fat, gluttonous, surly at some times, friendly at others, with a love of good food, especially Italian food, and extremely averse to physical labor for various reasons including the said laziness.

I love taking things at my own pace and hate being rushed into things. I live with an authority figure that wants what is best for me and gets exasperated by my actions at times. He’s no Jon Arbuckle though-he’s my dad, a happy bachelor at 75.

In all those ways and more, I resemble a certain orange cat who hates Mondays and loves lasagna.

Maybe I resemble Garfield TOO much…
