Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for December 08, 2012
Transcript:
Rosa: "So the "Four" of us would double date?" Luann: "Yeah! Gunther likes bowling, do you?" Rosa: "Bowling? I've never done it. But hey, why not?" Luann: "I texted Quill, "Do you like to bowl?" Oh - he just replied" Rosa: "Not at 4 AM!!" Luann: "Oops. I keep forgetting the stupid time difference"

Turn the phone off then, or at least don’t leave it next to your bed, ya drongo!

It could work. Maybe dinner at 7 pm and bowling at 8:30 pm? I am guessing that would be from 11 am on for him. I think that most bowling places are open late anyway on Fridays and Saturdays.
kittikat2381 about 12 years ago
And maybe Quill could go bowling at that time in Australia. There are some bowling alleys that open at 10 am, so that would be perfect. Would not be fair if he could not play along.

Let me see if I understand this………. Luann, Rosa and Gunther would be at one alley bowling, while Quill would be all by himself at another alley bowling with his laptop??? Gee, that must be alot of fun for Quill.

Greg is stalling us. And today’s wasn’t very funny. Move on with the story!

I just cannot picture any sort of sparks flying between Lu and Gunth. No way, no how. They have more of a brother/sister relationship.

Donny is an old-timer from Comics.com.(He will remember the ClydeFrog pondscum skirmishes, before that character got expunged.) I agree that perhaps Donny is confusing this site with his now deleted contributionsHis manifestos are breathtaking. I just wonder if anyone reads them.But if this site had word count, he might well be ahead of all, even at this early stage.
barbarasbrute about 12 years ago
They’re still brother/sister type things. (Except for the experimental kiss.) And even that wasn’t a ‘romantic’ type kiss.

OMG! She’s texting to Australia, for $4 a text. HAHA

I do not understand why so many people are Luther shippers. Have any of you ride off into the sunset with every single nice guy you ever had a crush on? They used to like each other that way, now they don’t. People are fickle.
Gunther may marry Rosa, Luann, or a former supermodel who bakes a great cake.
Luann might end up marrying her computer.
We just don’t know.
Angelalex242 about 12 years ago
Presumably, this idea is to be put off till Quill comes to visit. Visit with lots of lurve. A double date with a computer screen defies common sense. If Luann’s too silly to realize it, Rosa will notice, at least. Hell, Gunther might notice.
Barbara McKibben about 12 years ago
My thoughts today…
1. Gunth is smart but socially immature. At least Quill can hold his own in the company of ladies.
2. For the date they could play Trivial Persuit or some such game while skypeing.
3. I find the banter here with all y’all quite funny and not as evil as the last site with a couple of old nasty posters.
Sisyphos about 12 years ago
Luann’s expression of chagrin in panel 3 would be a reasonable end-point for this arc. And just in time, because that 3+1 bowling-across-the-oceans stunt would be very awkward at best and could turn disastrous….

@Donny Wallace (About yesterday’s strip)
Levy:exactly MJ is wrong- it’s real Luann promoting Quill, Evans- Gunther- just like on the board; Men Gunther, Chicks Quill. ^^Ummm, you’d better re-read my post, cause, THAT’S WHAT I SAID! sheesh
Mikeyj about 12 years ago
sometimes i think you people forget this is ONLY A COMIC STRIP!.We do not forget, we just do not care. It is as real or as imaginary as each individual wants it to be.^^PERFECT answer Lev!

Australia where Quill lives is 19 hours ahead of where Luann lives , so Quills time is 5 hours behind Luann’s time but the next day. 8:00 P.M. Luann is 3:00 P.M. Quill but the next day. Sydney NSW, Australia is 19 hours ahead of Los Angeles, CA, USA. Everyone got that?
Funny but 60 years ago we had 5 bowling alleys in town (48,000 pop) but now have but one and that is closed on Mondays and opens at noon weekdays till 11 and Fridays/Saturdays till 2 A.M. 40 years ago the Nightmare Alleys was open 24/7 with live music Wed thru Saturday 9 till 1 and was filled with dancing crazies that would bowl and dance to the sounds of the beat. Saturday afternoon Pros would bowl for big money on TV weekly with a big following. Guy who ran the place died and family couldn’t handle business. It now houses a Family Dollar and warehouse. There were 48 lanes and a lounge that seated 250. Hell, the bar was 50 feet long with 6 bartenders. Times change!

I comment for fun I do not worry about what the count is.^^Same here, I only mentioned my count cause everyone was comparing, and I didn’t want to feel left out

@Brdshtt
About four miles from here, there is a bowling alley that stays open 24/7/365 (or 366 on a leap year) and at times turns out the main lights, kicks on the black lights, and they have glow – in – the – dark bowling. If you use the house balls, they glow in the dark. Honestly, truly.^^Yup, the Bowl-a-Rama here has what they call “Midnight Bowling” too

It is the quality of the comment, not the quantity that counts.

Wait till her parents get Luann’s text bill! Unless they set it up to allow for overseas calls and texts, I believe that it’ll be one whopper of a bill!
BlitzMcD about 12 years ago
Luann’s last line (“I keep forgetting”) says it all. The world revolves around her.
tweetygodess about 12 years ago
OMG are you all really having a race to see who can post the most comments?? Too funny! Good luck and may the best (and fastest) poster win!!
ACTIVIST1234 about 12 years ago
Donny, in the Great Comment Competition, divide number of comments by months on board. You are doing pretty well.*Note how everyone involved in this race appears to be male? Just as Quill & Gunther may end up competing for Luann’s or Rosa’s attention, the Commenting guys compete for the wisecracking award.*(Also note: I’ve already talked about how girls/women also compete, so I’m not being a hater.) (Na na na-na na.)

Happy Hanukkah, Bernice & all!

Donny: Luther is a relationship name given to Luann and Gunther, made by combining the first 2 of Lu’s and the last 4 of Gunther. And though I’m more for Quill and Luann, that relationship name sounds a heck of a lot better than Quiann or Luill.
Mikeyj about 12 years ago
And your comment was the most boring of all :p
Mikeyj about 12 years ago
Donny, it’s just a number, chill, man

What’s wrong with four am for bowling?Fewer people to see your errors.Those who ARE there tend to be too drunk to notice.
kenhense about 12 years ago
Let’s say Bernice is 18. She gets a flat tire and Dirk comes to the rescue. I visualize a road warning sign nearby: an image of Cupid – in a circle with a line through it…
Lev – if you remember my caption idea – the Luann characters paired up in bed having a cigarette after the deed… I’ll add Tiffany -in bed with a cigarette – surrounded by mirrors and pictures of herself. No caption….

Hey if you ever had a life – you must not have liked it…
Attila The Voice! about 12 years ago
Boy it’ll sure be easier when the kids graduate, Quill will be able to move back so he and Luann won’t have to keep doing this.

I wonder if ELWOOD likes to go bowling?!?!?
kenhense about 12 years ago
I threw a 266 once – and I couldn’t even average 151 (never could make that ten pin spare)
Mikeyj about 12 years ago
I had a 150 av, but, my highest games were in the 270-280 area (Of course, that was 5 pin <<Canadian only game, similar to "duck pins) the ball is about 1/3 the size of a ten pin ball and has no holes
kenhense about 12 years ago
Actually it’s the anticipation of porn – the tease – can be very powerful. The Luann comic was always good – however ill bet the blog has a lot more entries now that the characters are getting to be big boys and girls.
