Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for August 01, 2013

“Here’s to you kid.”

“One For The Road”…

the can or the car?

Hey! look! It’s everybody we said that was neglected, but in generic shadow form!… ==Either that, or some “extras, stand-ins and leftover stunt persons” who just made their money near the end of the arc….

This is off-topic, but I’m just wondering….is anybody else having trouble viewing their Recent Comments page? All my comments are squished together into one line. I’ve sent messages to GoComics, but they haven’t resolved it. Said to clear my cache, but that didn’t do any good.

Any feedback appreciated.

Cheers! ^And Family Ties to you too!

Coupla songs come to mind for “OFTR”, including “Johnny Mercer’s”….

Oh, yeah! I shoulda led with “Happy Trails”! …..

Quill and Gunther are becoming good buddies. That augurs well for their mutually growing romantic interests in Rosa (Gunther) and Luann (Quill). Now if Oxford could just keep Tiffany from interfering, relationships might thrive….

I wonder if all those shadow people are locals who just happened to notice TJ’s food wagon and decided to support him. The shadows appear mostly masculine so can’t be Bernice and Crystal.

Quill is sounding like a quality dude. Seems like he’s in “Luann” to stay.

Well, I wonder how many strips it’ll take to make Quill history. Greg wants to make Luann eternally lost in her teens.

how about you propose to luann?

Seems like they have a Bro crush on each other.

Try “Luann, I love you.”

Say, Gunth? Have You introduced Rosa to Mr. Perfect, Yet?

Well, Why Don’t ‘cha? We’ll WAIT.

You See, I’ve got This BET Goin’……,

You can get past the annoyances by using the scroll bar. Good advice from Miles awhile back.

Songs I’d pick are Pink Floyd’s “comfortably Numb” and " Journey’s “faithfully yours”.

Hey Quill, how about being George Washington and staying in America. Oh I forgot their Black people actually talk with better english than whites in america and actually everyone lives by the constitution. Let’s all go to Australia where people actuallly care about others.

How do you curmudgeon’s in the minority of people who have that opinion??

Any idea that there is anything other than friendship with Quill and Gunther is silly, but that being said I am not surprised at all with the friendship. Gunther is a quality person, and Quill is that Aussie type guy that is so well represented in our movies, such as the actor who plays Wolverine— Hugo Jackman—breezy, smart, quality person, and can pick other quality people. By the way I hardly ever use IE anything, particularly the newer versions. THe more Microsoft adds to its browser the more unwieldy it becomes. I would suggest Mozzilla Firefox, or Google Chrome. Hope that works for my fellow Luann fan!

how about “bye”

just wondering where did they come up with all the Aussie table flags from yesterdays strip?

Quill, time for a little Cyrano work with Gunther.

And, iamabluejay, I like your commercials.

If Gunther were to spend more time with Quill, his confidence should increase markedly. His main problem is having a Type B personality with introverted focus and low self-esteem. AND he probably has thought he is the ONLY male with those problems.

A friend of mine refers to that as Internet Exploder. ^I had a calendar where there were all sorts of funny anecdotes similar to that, where people called it “Exploder”, “Internet Exposer”, and some others…

JUST KISS ALREADY PATHETIC HUMANS!

Wow! I appreciate that! And even if it’s not actually a majority, that’s okay, too… It’s just like life…. cant please everybody, but it’s always nice to know that there are those who do appreciate you (and even if there’s disagreements, at least to respect the other’s space, or liberty of expressions)…. and again, thanks!

“…breaking the 4th wall?”^ I gave that some thought, as well…

“Barry Gibb, Little River Band and Air Supply…”^Actually, I did use songs from them before, but when I use a song, it would have something to do with a general theme(s) in the strip… like today’s being about “sending someone off”…

“A friend of mine refers to that as Internet Exploder. ’^I had a calendar where there were all sorts of funny anecdotes similar to that, where people called it “Exploder”, “Internet Exposer”, and some others…

If I were Quill, I know EXACTLY where I’d start!! [Her name is Luann!!}

Now that we have our feathers all un-fluffed over JayBlue’s chatterings, has anyone noticed that Quill has only been in the US about six days, Luanniverse time?

Yeah, for sure!

Bye Quill, don’t come back!

Jolly good time, ther’ Mate, but it’s time to shov off and go back ‘Down Under’..

Lol! Thank you, as well! I honestly, sincerely did not expect that such a thing would be today’s “runaway topic”… I guess it was on the schedule… Lol!

My question is: Will tomorrow have Qcumber go around saying stuff for the rest of the week, or will he be at the airport tomorrow, with one more Luann “dramatic” gag?….==Or will he help Gunther out with some “loose ends” before he leaves?…

But what do you expect from someone who’s screen name is ‘curmudgeon’?!!! A curmudgeon, by definition, is supposed to rant and complain….

So is this the apology Greg offers for quill’s abrupt departure before? Or is Quill not going to leave this time?

So many things we wish to saySo many words that won’t come outThis is the plight we face each daySo there’s no cause to sit and pout.We’ll bite our tongueHold our peace.Feel like dungUntil we cease.Since words won’t comeMaybe works will doI’ll measure someAnd make clothes for you..You will go where I can’t beLuann’s eyes will gaze on thee.-(Of course we realize he is really only interested in current love interest, but sometimes it is fun to torture poetry.)

You and me both, Gunth. At least, in person. heh heh.

Yeah, rather enjoyed good ol’ Dr. D….. “Boot to the Head”, “Star Trekkin’”, “Fish Heads”, etc… Dr. Dimento is the “Ed Sullivan” of the world of humor….

Gunther is getting badly needed praise for his costume design and production…way to go, Quill! Quill likes to talk too much and sadly, Gunther has a disconnect between what he wants to say, and how he tries to say it… His continuing friendship with Rosa should help get rid of some of that disconnect… I hope so, because he is one of my favorite Luann characters…

Thanks!…

You might want to rethink using slice in THAT configuration. While I and most others would think of a slice of pie, cake or other foods, (and I was not even thinking of the golf term) the word also refers to the fecal discharge of a bird of prey(curiously this was found only at one of the dictionary locations that I use on line) but I CAN attest to that as fact from all those who were watching Cornell’s Red Tail Hawks at their nests these 2 years now as they raised the latest 2 clutches. meaning of slice

I think your posts are very creative JayBlue. Plus you seem like a genuinely nice person. Just ignore that curmudgeon and keep on posting!

No, unless everyone here could be called a “star” (as there is room in the sky for many stars) then there are no stars here ……. ==We all have our thing here, and we all have our place….

maybe not everyone gripes about the little irritating things here. some prefer to keep their silence. just my two cents. I just wouldn’t say everyone love the little commercial rhymes..

Luann reminds me a lot of Lisa G.

And now, for a word from our sponsor, Foster’s Lager:Oy!

Did someone say (few strips ago) thatthey are writing Quill out?I hope not.

I’m surprised no one commented on what seems like a very plausible possibility from the Quill-Gunther exchanges to me: Quill gives Gunther the confidence to say all those things to people that he used to be afraid to share, and he starts with Luann. Luann and Gunther start to fall for one another, and long-distance Quill gradually gets jilted, hopefully ultimately realizing that he got stabbed in the back by dweeby ol’ Gunther.
