    So...in a nutshell...Garfield is Ghostbusters is Mickey Mouse is Kid Klown is Bugs Bunny with Super Mario Bros. as the recommended game by TH-cam and Jon Arbuckle is the reincarnation of Jim Davis is the reincarnation of a pharaoh who just so happens to look like Jon Arbuckle...makes perfect sense to me. :3

    That purple eyepatch cat boss is from the 1983 Garfield "Movie" called "Garfield on the Town". He was a member of the rival gang called "The Claws", you can see him behind the main antagonist in the final fight scene.

      Oh i can imagine it alright. If it was me, i'd assume they was actually saying the more commonly spelled "Brian", and check the transcript to confirm it, and then see that yes in fact he did say "Brian", so therefor definitely wasn't by some Christmas magic actually saying Happy Birthday to me at all, but to some other Brian who's name was spelled properly.

    • @vaxrvaxr
      @vaxrvaxr ปีที่แล้ว +2

      OK, let's imagine ... 1.5 million views, spread over the year means about how 4,000 people saw it on their birthday. About 0.5% of the US population is named Brian. That would make for roughly 20 people, but we can imagine that the number of Brians in the international audience would be significantly lower. So all in all, maybe just about below a dozen people. Easily imagined as a bunch of friendless nerds with birthday hats in a split screen reaction video.
