Strip by: Redgreen

Jon {lifting up his left arm and sticking up his index(?) finger}: They say that to avoid burping, you should drink slowly
SFX: gluk gluk gluk gluk {Garfield chugs down a soda can}
SFX: BURP! {Garfield belches so forcibly, it blows back Jon's hair}
{Jon looks sternly aside, arm and finger still in place}
Garfield {pumping his fist in excitement}: Or you can just let 'er rip!

The author writes:

Jim Davis forgot to open Jon's mouth when he was talking*! Luckily, I'm prone to fixing problems like this!

[*In the ucomics version, Jon has an open mouth, but in for example the version preserved on the Garfield fandom wiki, his mouth is indeed closed. -Ed]
