    It’s a parody of shitty romcom dramas where there’s a handicapped girl and the boyfriend eventually decides to donate his [insert random organ] to cure the girl (thereby taking on the handicap himself). Artificial and forced drama, basically. The humor comes from the fact that Garfield taking the boobs implies that 1) someone needed to take the boobs and 2) having big boobs was a curse that needed to be endured.

      I hope that I never forget the moment that I read this beautiful disaster of a sentence created at the crossroads of the internet doing the internet thing. I look forward to the day that I awkwardly chuckle at an inappropriate time because I suddenly recall “someone needed to take the boobs.”
