Today's Garf covers modern Garfield. Unlike the charming and occasionally straight-up weird Garf strips of yesteryear, this is allegedly done without any real input from Garfield creator Jim Davis, but is instead farmed out to a series of trainees like the guy who now does Intelligent Life. As such, it's usually pretty drat boring, unimaginative, and semi-regularly copy-pasted from panel to panel. Zippy (the Pinhead) has a distaste for standard newspaper comic strips comparable to the loathing of The Dinette Set for middle-class white trash. It tends to express this through semi-coherent babblings about items of minor fascination for the strip's creator, including but not limited to advertising icons, clam juice, taco sauce, Trump, old cartoons, and whatever's been in the low-effort news stories for the past few months.  Ripley's (Believe It Or Not) is a faded imitation of a once-great institution. Whereas the original Ripley's strips were based on the first-hand research of an international traveler, who had respect for the cultures he visited (at least by the standards of the time) and the human oddities encountered (at least by the standards of the time), the current strips are based on Wikipedia diving, reader submissions (rarely fact-checked, apparently), and tracings of GIS results.

Today's Garf Zippy  Ripley's  I thought about color-shifting the hair to make it Guy Gilchrist, but I didn't have a punch-line.

Don't really recall Evans ever showing a compulsive need to randomly bold words or put them in quotation marks.
