Confusing nomenclature abounds in this, the sixth ever Garfield comic strip. The boys discuss just what in the hell a 'catburger' is and why we should care, and then gush over the strip's historic first use of onomatopoeia. At no point does anyone make reference to this strip running on 'Caturday'.
