* [[RunningGag "We're BACHELORS, baby."]]
* WebVideo/{{Garfielf}}, a [[MindScrew bizarre]] parody video is often quoted around Garfield discussions around the internet, spawning a whole series of clones made with much the same software. And then ''that'' subgenre of parody videos got ''[[UpToEleven its own]]'' parody video [[WebVideo/FistOfTheB0rfStar series]], which then developed '''[[SerialEscalation its own]]''' devoted following and fan works...
* Fans of ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' fans have gotten more interested in Garfield, comparing Jon Arbuckle to Yoshikage Kira (the main villain of [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable Part 4]]) and making a number of mashups.
* [[https://twitter.com/virgiltexas/status/834928472162197505 A bizarre tweet]] by a Twitter user named [[Podcast/ChapoTrapHouse Virgil Texas]] claiming that Jim Davis [[WordOfGod had officially stated]] that Garfield was [[NoBiologicalSex genderless]] resulted in one of the strangest internet debates in history: Whether the (canonically male) Garfield was [[ViewerGenderConfusion male, female, or neither]].

* "They haven't stopped making frozen pudding pops, have they?" Thank ''Square Root of Minus Garfield'' for this one.
* "Now where could my pipe be?" ''WebVideo/LasagnaCat''[='=]s infamous [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAh9oLs67Cw hour-long analysis]] of the "Pipe Strip" led to it becoming popular and receiving [[http://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/339147393360592896/597209643277615154/D-vmwo2WsAE7Ezm.png all manner]] [[http://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/339147393360592896/595896170065428480/tumblr_onr1g8rGpl1qlnfpvo7_1280.png of remakes with]] [[https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464420275187089448/748986936470929499/0a9.png other characters]].
** [[https://twitter.com/GarfieldPipe Then came a Twitter account changing the punchline in other strips to that.]] And occasionally the first two panels to a different punchline.
** Similar memes involving replacing the final panel in Garfield comics with those of others (particularly an edited version of the third panel of [[https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/001/914/896/6c5 the March 24, 1993 strip]][[labelnote:*]]which edits out the real Garfield behind Jon, giving off the appearance that Garfield just spontaneously deflated like a balloon in front of Jon, to Jon's horror[[/labelnote]], and Jon throwing Garfield through a window the last panel of the March 29, 1981 strip) became popular in Fall 2020.
* Late November 2018 saw many people [[http://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/426495055893626941/515924544028934144/unknown.png reminding others to vote Garfield Kart for Steam's Game of the Year]].
* Because of the Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure Garfield mashups gaining popularity, a lot of people had also started making mashups of other video game characters too ([[https://i.ibb.co/kJVV5hD/40d2a22a-9066-4d42-aa18-43c9c206ddbf.png Incineroar,]] Mario, Among Us, Banjo-Kazooie, you named it!).
* In 2019, meme images and videos started popping up due to at first [[https://williamburkeart.com/the-corrupted-gallery William Burke]], a horror artist, then made more popular by [[WebAnimation/LumpyTouch pixel artist]] [[https://twitter.com/LumpyTouch LumpyTouch]] depicting Garfield as an horrifyingly monstrous EldritchAbomination that has trapped Jon in eternal torment, many of which have been posted in the subreddit [[https://old.reddit.com/r/imsorryjon/ r/imsorryjon]]. Eventually, many characters from other shows have gotten this treatment, too.
** Some of these images developed memes of their own, including:
---> ''"Bullets don't work, Jon."''
** and:
---> ''"All this for a dog, [[Franchise/JohnWick John?"]]''
---> ''[[PreAssKickingOneLiner "Yeah."]]''
* For some reason, a popular edited image is [[https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/369969901558824960/667901989795135508/You_Are_Not_Immune_To_Propaganda.jpeg Garfield's face above the words "You are not immune to propaganda"]].
* Why do they call it oven when you of in the cold food of out hot eat the food [[labelnote:Explanation]]Although [[https://twitter.com/YashichiDSF/status/373678745883639808 the tweet this quote comes from]] is from 2013, in 2019 it became heavily associated with [[https://i.redd.it/cqxd8qxe6q751.jpg a Garfield panel where Jon is putting lasagna in his oven.]][[/labelnote]]
