Hey, leave Ash be. Although (and I say this with the upmost respect) he may be misguided, I truly believe his heart’s in the right place and attacking him just makes you a bully. Ash, I don’t know if you remember me, but even though we grew up on the opposite sides of the country, with, frankly, opposite political views, we really did have the same childhood. Peace out!! I’ve got your back baby!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! That totally ruins my great mood from yesterday!!!! :( :( :( I hate Quill so much!
MJ you need to create a drawing showing how you’d really like the scene with Quill to end…^^Well, it takes some time to draw a truck with blood covered wheels :P
Okay Brad that little box better up being something glittery cause if that’s the real Quill you got served in your own home. Happy oneupmanship, I mean Valentines Bwad & Aunt Toni!
Ah, nothing says “romance” quite like two lonely teenagers alone together in a darkened house after weeks of forced separation… of course, nothing says teen pregnancy quite like that, either^^LOL… Then again, having Shannon around might be useful as a deterrent
bubble points low, laptop. quill probably asked to help them have some alone time and yes the package is next to the monitor. Proposes so they can get married and he can immigrate to America. Okay, probably not on that last bit.
I hope Quill drops her for being such a baby.``Nothing extreme about her behavior or her hopeless feeling. A caring person would not drop her, only a selfish jerk would.
“APRIL FOOL!!!! Jest Kiddin’! It’s Me, an’ I gotta BIG Surprise For Yuh! Ah jest brought EVERY House on th’ BLOCK! So MARRY Me or I’m gonna put your Parents OUT onna STREET! RE-LAX! Ya got twentyah foah hours. Tah THINK it oval! An’ HAPPAH VALENTINE’S Day, DAHLIN!!!!” – Elwood
Hey, I’m not trying to be gross or anything. These are just some ideas that would make the strip really interesting to the readers. (Are you listening, Mr. Evans?) We all know that everyone would be looking forward to the daily strip (pun intended).
I’m puzzled about the “?” after Quill instead of “!”She doesn’t see him yet, or know him, or recognize him, or believe her eyes? Seems like an “!” would indicate excitement, joy, love, etc. – all of which would be appropriate if she recognized him.
Hey, I’m not trying to be gross or anything. These are just some ideas that would make the strip really interesting to the readers. (Are you listening, Mr. Evans?) We all know that everyone would be looking forward to the daily strip (pun intended).
We called it! Hurrah! Great V.D. gift, Mr. Evans! Unless, of course, it’s her brother just messing with her.(And Levy, they’ll have the whole house to themselves for a couple hours.)
If this really is Quill, live and in person, things should get very interesting over the next few Luann-time hours! It appears, at this point, to be a well-planned and executed surprise for the St. Valentine’s Day evening. And what a twist from yesterday’s downer!
I too believe that Brads “Ring box” was actually for Luann from Quill. And Quill is skyped large on the big screen TV, and that Brad and Toni are dressed in Aussie garb and Shannon is dressed as a Kangaroo Joey. Then Brad and Toni go for a Walkabout and Brad finally gets Toni Outback.
I have predicted more than once that Luann will have sex before Brad``Yes you have, Levi, but I believe that Toni and Brad have crossed that threshold already.
Quill wants to get intimate with Luann. I wonder if the cartoonist will show what we’re up to. Yes, this is a family strip, but I know that many of you want to see the action. Contrary to the prior post, it’s not at all like Shades of Grey.
um the strip is called LUANN. but of course you KNEW that….duh
*
Duh, yeah, I know. In case YOU don’t know, the strip has an ensemble cast. Do you, or anyone here, like every single member or every single storyline of every single ensemble cast? No? Gee whiz! Imagine that. So get off my back.
If it’s the real Quill, Greg would have shown him. So there’s got to be a surprise coming..If it’s just Quill on Skype, it’ll be a letdown. Bad idea to build up reader anticipation and not deliver..My guess? It’s Quill on Skype, with a ticket to Australia leaning against the monitor.
I suspect that Quill had it all arranged with Brad to have a gift at his house for Luann, and that he set it up so that Brad set up a Skype connection so they could talk with each other while Luann opened her gift(s). It MIGHT even be that the gift that Brad snatched away from Luann the other day was the gift for Luann from Quill. Although, it could be an engagement ring for Toni.
He might have even arranged for a special “dinner” for Quill and Luann (Quill may have asked TJ to cook it) that they would eat together as they skype. Quill probably will just eat a vegemite sandwhich while Luann dines on whatever TJ made for her.
In the words – or screams of Wayne and Garth from Wayne’s World: WHOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope it’s the real Quill, though I’m not sure how he got her card if she timed it for the day and then got to Brad’s house, but hey! If it’s the real Quill, she ought to nab onto him and never let go! Anything else would be a real let down!
I think he’s there. When I got to the third panel, I pictured him sitting casually in a lounge chair, waiting for her. The question mark made perfect sense to me, she was just on skype with him. But he was skyping from Brads. I think the gift in question was Brads for Toni. Why wouldn’t Quill get a gift for Luann himself. Just my 2 cents. We’ll find out tomorrow…maybe.
what the hell do you have against Quill^^Well, it’s getting pretty annoying, he’s “Mr Perfect”, always smiling, always trying to please, sooooo unbelievable; he’s a “Stepford BF”; has the personality of a potato; has no substance, whatsoever; hate his smiley guts!
Well, people are just insulting the hell out of me today. There’s no way i meet the definition of a troll. You must have me confused with some other poster.

I think that Quill and Luann ought to have sex now. This can provide lots of follow up plot opportunities: (a) They go on and pretend that it never happened – - – - she’s embarrassed, but ultimately they have some of “Shades of Grey” type scenes; (b) Luann thinks that she might be pregnant. She discusses this endlessly with Bernice and Delta, and stresses out about telling her parents, but ultimately finds out she’s not pregnant; © She ends up going to college in Australia to be closer to Quill, but they don’t communicate, so he goes to the US for college, and they’re still half a world away; (d) More nudity and sex between Quill and Luann. They go to a swing club, and who do they see? TJ, Ann, and Bernice in a threesome. Ultimately more of the gang gets involved, and they all end up on the Jerry Springer show; (e) etc., etc., etc.
