Strip by: SonicLover

{Garfield is running}
Garfield: I wonder how fast I can run.
{Garfield runs towards a pet door}
Garfield: I wonder what would happen if I hit this kitty door at Mach 2.
{Garfield is outside, having knocked down a mailman}
Garfield: I wonder if tripping a mailman is a federal offense.

The author writes:

A lot of Square Root of Minus Garfield strips take an innocent Garfield strip and change a few details to make the premise much Darker And Edgier (caution: TV Tropes link), often by killing a major character. When I stumbled upon an original Garfield strip that actually mentioned death, I decided to do the opposite.
