Strip by: eulersidentitycrisis

{Garfield has picked up a phone}
Unknown Caller: May I speak to the man of the house?
{A featherless chicken walks into frame}
Garfield: Define "man"

The author writes:

I only noticed it after making the strip, but the weird direction of the speech/thought bubble makes it seem like the chicken is thinking and not Garfield. Considering the concept of this chicken shrewdly trying to defend itself being a man is somewhat funny, please pretend I came up with this on purpose.

Original strip: 1997-06-27.
