I think it will jump to another storyline on Monday.

Yeah, we’ll probably have to wait a month to know for sure…

Has anyone considered that “AE” may SEDUCE TJ? This may be a “G Rated” cartoon strip, but it has room for a woman’s “conniving” and “manipulation” of a G-rated nature!

Something will happen to the phone before he ever gets a chance to use it against her.And, BTW 58 is hardly an antique.

“I con smart” — how is that supposed to get her fired? Corporate would probably be really impressed and promote her.
Also, TJ constantly calling his boss “Ann” or “Annie” when she told him to call her “Ms Eiffel” makes him a less than credible complainant.

TJ says “Personal Slave.” AHA! – This is about chemistry between the two. I suspect we’ll see a new arc Monday – but I hope we’ll return in time to see AE jump TJ (the action we see can be kept to a G/PG level).

“Anne will come back with material on TJ”-The main flaw in that is that TJ doesn’t care if he is fired or not. Threats thereof don’t carry any weight.

Had it with this…..this used to be my fav comic, but this is just ridiculous. Not fun anymore.’Bye.

Seems as though this marks a pause for this arc. Another storyline should pick up on Monday. But Annie’s fate is pretty much sealed; it’s only a matter of time.

Unfinished business: Why did the paper and pencil seem to move all over the desk yesterday? Easy, if you look closely, you will see that the “camera” changed positions, zooming in and out and slightly moving to the left (Good cartoonists do this to make the strip feel less 2 dimensional<< I’m a soso cartoonist (Been drawing since I was 6) , but, I have studied the pros; hopefully, one day I will find the courage to get the ideas out of my head, onto the paper and become one myself.
New business @ KonaKommando , If you don’t like this strip… well, you know the rest!
I tend to go with the “Ann will try to seduce TJ” train of thought; and will soon find himself fired, leaving TJ to file a sexual harrassment charge! lol

Would the Weenie World owners really discipline Anne for saying ‘I con a bit but I con smart. This is Anne Eiffel’ recorded and spliced together by T.J.? Where’s the proof she actually did anything? T.J. doesn’t have proof, or it wouldn’t have been so critical for Ox and Tiffany to succeed, and he wouldn’t be crowing about his patchwork recording of nothing now. Besides, ‘Mr. Brilliant’ has boosted Anne’s sales for months, and she’s sitting pretty and favored by the higher ups no doubt. But it’s all okay because Tiffany was in the strip this week:) Wasn’t she pretty? Okay, her acting was a bit Shatner-esque, but hey, you can make a living doing that! She just needs to get roles that cater to her strengths.

BAH!
Big, Bad, TJ picking on gal.
So, WHY are You Waiting, Smiley?
……, GUTLESS??

The first thing Tj needs to do is upload that sound file to his computer and burn off a couple of discs. After that, LET her get the phone
Finbar Gurdy about 12 years ago
That’s not where I would want the lipstick….

From yesterday, with regard to Mojitobaby. There is nothing mysterious about Moj’s absence. Not the type to be “run off” — just quite busy with more pressing matters than Luann.
Liam Astle Premium Member about 12 years ago
So TJ likes being a submissive and has a foot fetish?

“When you got them by the (private parts), their hearts and minds follow.” No one but a vicious moron actually uses that as a personal philosophy. I know I’m taking this strip more seriously than I should, but let’s ask a question: Has TJ really thought this through? If his intention is to have Eifel fired that’s one thing, but if it’s to “toy” with her (and I don’t mean sexually,) Eifel doesn’t impress me as the type to accept that for long. She’ll either retaliate in some manner, or call TJ and take her chances with Winnie World HQ. Either way, TJ will soon be out of Winnie World with nothing much to show for it. The truth is, what TJ holds over Eifel isn’t some “flaming sword,” but at worst some mild embarrassment.

I hope TJ doesn’t wind up in a box somewhere.

Not that this comic is particularly realistic, but realistically she can sue him for blackmail, and he can be jailed for violating wiretap laws.
Doctor11 about 12 years ago
Trust me, Ann Eiffel is gonna get fired and I wager that TJ will get her job.

A lame, limp ending to a stupid storyline: in other words, a typical Greg Evans job.
Topper-dog about 12 years ago
Thank you, Greg Evans, for coming up with such great plots! Good job!

sexual blackmail here we come
reedkomicks Premium Member about 12 years ago
…tell her to take her time. it’s nice to hear other voices…
prrdh about 12 years ago
Ever consider the possibility that it’s his way of dealing with Ann Eiffel, whom he does not consider interchangeable with all other women, or that he doesn’t consider a woman’s outward appearance the sole criterion of sexual attractiveness?
Buggerlugs about 12 years ago
Is TJ gay?
reedkomicks Premium Member about 12 years ago
Thanks Debbie. Oh, I think KK is a troll, a rude one at that.
krelboyne about 12 years ago
The R-word? What are you? A six year old?For the general public, retard stopped having a specific meaning long ago.

IIRC, TJ inherited some major bucks. I sitll suspect he has controlling (or major-influence minor) stock in Weenie World – and AE is about to get the chop.I don’t really have any evidence to support this theory – but between experience as LEO and too many years reading this strip and Tom Clancy and other spy and detective novels, I just have that feeling…
Durak Premium Member about 12 years ago
Luann has some great characters. TJ isn’t one of them. This whole rascally but loveable rogue just doesn’t work. He’s a manipulative ass. He manipulates his friends, their families, the people he works with, and he just doesn’t care. Greg, TJ needs to grow up.

Yea, lipstick on his “feet”.

“Are you a politician or a lawyer (with apologies to any of the latter I might be insulting) making absolute statements on something with a total lack of evidence?”-Leviticus is an empiricist and a “not a sound in the forest if they ain‘t nobody thar to hear it” type, assuming if he didn’t personally see it, it didn’t happen.-The fun thing is that even if he is wrong, you can never prove it because that would be introducing the ears in the forest and eyes in the coit

“has Evans even talked to person under 60 i don’t think so”-poor little troll
