Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for December 27, 2013
Transcript:
Luann: "How's your job with Melodee Manezon?" Quill: "Great. She wants me to keep working for her" Luann: "She does? Oh..." Quill: "Look, I know you want more "us" time - so do I. But a job at the Moony Uni theater department? I can't let that go" Luann: "Quill, there are only so many hours in a day. You gotta let something go. Or someone..." Quill: "True. I sure hope TJ won't mind"

Well, that was an easy decision.

Good choice, Quill.

Maybe Luann could enjoy more time with Quill, if she didn’t spend all her time with Quill complaining that she doesn’t get to spend enough time with Quill.

Quill’s making the right move.

Geez.
Here We GO, Again.
“Us” Vs “Me”. And Pretty Boy Has to Give up a Job to Placate Luann.
Sheesh.
Better be CAREFUL, Q-Ball.
If You Spend too much time At the Moonbat Theater Department, Luann will SOON Be Accusing YOU of (A-Hem) “DRIVING Ms Mazzy!!”

Cool! An early comment!

It was TJ’s crazy idea, so don’t be married to it yourself…
gkid almost 11 years ago
All right. SO. Maybe this job does not fit Quill. Moony U = perfect. If Luann is smart, she will support him in it. A wise woman will.

I’m not first, and I don’t care!
Mikeyj almost 11 years ago
From what I’ve seen, TJ should be glad to be rid of him… Who puts someone who can’t cook in charge of an eatery, to begin with?
Reality,really? almost 11 years ago
She hasn’t gotten boy yet. Stay tuned

Quill compromises with ease and wit. But Luann is being clingy and demanding and, yes, self-centered to a worrisome degree. It is Luann who needs to [learn to] adjust her behavior and be more accommodating to Quill. A relationship that is largely one-sided in its focus will not ultimately survive….

Quill thinks he has solved the problem, because he wants a career. It was his career excuse for coming in the first place. He wants a wife and career. Can he have both? we shall see.

She’s a teen, what else would you expect?
gkid almost 11 years ago
Yes , she does, plain as the nose on your face. Poor girl, she is very young and she is just a teen.She needs some advice, badly. She could really use some loving advice, especially from her Mom right now. Even Dad? Well , he’s running scared right now. OK, “M-O-O-M~!”; it’s Nancy time.

Now I have to weigh in on a bit of immaturity and selfishness on the part of my heroine Luann here. Mooney U is right across town per another strip, so it’s not like Quill will be overseas, as are many young men and women who volunteer to serve the country in the armed services. Moreover, he is not gong to a university hundreds of miles away, he will be near her, available much more than so many other young lovers. So, this is her not him
gkid almost 11 years ago
Would some one please get this girl to her Mother?
animemom almost 11 years ago
Thing is Quill was not that good at cooking. It’s TJ’s dream let him make it real.
seismic-2 Premium Member almost 11 years ago
Luann, on Monday your Mom told you that “Boys don’t like needy, mopey girls.” Weren’t you listening?
rugeirn almost 11 years ago
She should get a job of her own! Let’s see how she manages relationship time when she hasn’t got the luxury of 24/7 sponging off her parents!

It is a good decision that Quill is making. He does well in theatrical work but is a lousy cook. However, there was some foreshadowing in the George and Martha Washington arc. Tiffany was only chosen because someone gave a big donation. We shall see.

============That thing around Luann’s neck, I finally got it figured out===============This is your goody from yesterday? This is even older than the universe….
gkid almost 11 years ago
Luann has many good qualities; she is hardworking, dependable, kind and helpful with children, pets and the elderly. She is not perfect, but she is basically a good kid.
gkid almost 11 years ago
Where’s Mrs. Horner? Cool. classy lady. Haven’t seen her around for awhile. Now there’s someone who could give Luann advice. Wise lady.
Sangelia almost 11 years ago
Hey Greg and Karen, this is NOT the 50s & 60s where girls were still expected to get married right out of high school. Many gals are getting married in their 30s.So stop the antiquated actions of Luann wanting to get married at 18/19.
Argy.Bargy2 almost 11 years ago
=======Just envious because you never got a idea about what the necklace was for.
=========LOL! I didn’t have to manufacture an idea, because I already acknowledged that it was a gift from Quill. But you wanted to keep suggesting other stuff to posters who didn’t know. Your turkey bone suggestion was creative, but today’s idea deserves to return to the ancient past …
registrationsucks almost 11 years ago
This whole “I need more attention from you” schtick Luann is doing gets old FAST.
Make Mine Marvel almost 11 years ago
@gkid: I’m beginning to suspect that the notice for Mrs. Horner’s memorial service got lost in the mail some months ago. Either that or she’s run off to South America with Lawrence’s dad from For Better or for Worse.
Is Quill getting paid for the job at Moony U? There are questions he’s going to have to answer with the Immigration people if he bails on the job he claimed he had when he applied for a work visa, or permit, or whatever.
And I wonder if he’s staying at Gunther’s place (does Gunther have a last name?) for free, or has Q’s father made some deal with G’s mom? Is Quill supposed to be picking up some share of the groceries, or paying rent?
I know, I know, it’s just a comic. I have this annoying habit of expecting things to make sense in context. Where did Cain get his wife?
Sheila Hardie almost 11 years ago
I’m not liking how Luann is behaving lately. Stop making her look like such a psycho!
3pibgorn9 almost 11 years ago
Hey, she’s just out of high school. She’s real with this. And Quill has it covered. Cut the young woman some slack. They’re both in love.
tuttibug almost 11 years ago
How long will it take Luann to figure it all out?
1. Also get a job at Moony Univ. in the theater department. (time together)
2. Pick up Quill and drive to work. (time together)
3. Decide to go the Moony Univ. in the fall instead of community college. (more time together)
imbaldeagle almost 11 years ago
Gunther can be quite the “ham” at times(cough, cough, awwwaaaak…)
Argy.Bargy2 almost 11 years ago
=======I agree with you, but we are increasingly in the minority. Ironically, it’s usually girls and women who are accused of ‘wanting it all’ when they hope for a career as well as a significant other. Here, where the guy is doing this and the girl is calling him on it, SHE is seen as whiney and needy rather than realistic.
keema70 almost 11 years ago
Why isn’t Luann doing any more acting and singing? She is obviously good at both, and they are things that she has in common with Quill (although he’s more experienced). Expressing oneself artistically can work wonders. MM doesn’t know that Luann exists. Quill should introduce them.
JamesEStewartJr almost 11 years ago
Luann sure is becoming a high maintenance girlfriend. It’s too bad she can’t allow herself to be happy with the wonderful opportunity she’s been given. She shouldn’t be complaining about not having every spare minute of Quill’s time and make the most of she does get. Everything he has done so far has been so he can be near her, yet that still isn’t enough. If this were a real relationship, I’d be worried about it.

====Um, if TJ quits, there is no more food truck….
seismic-2 Premium Member almost 11 years ago
It’s not clear to me that “intelligence” is a prime requirement for a job as a short-order cook in a food truck. Perhaps it would be a job for Ox? He certainly knows his fast food, having consumed everything on the menu at Weenie World and Burger Box (perhaps in a single meal?) using the credit card that his parents gave him for that purpose. Maybe he can use that familiarity with the product to learn how to cook it as well as eat it.

Look at the green all around— Pitts is definitely NOT in Ohio!(Quill makes even a silly Christmas sweater seem cute.)

Is TJ’s truck gonna tank? Time for AE to show up in some scenario. Those two aren’t done yet.

ST Joe River almost 11 years ago
your are a person that must never have had a sex life of your own you have this constant drive even when you read comics you should see some one like a Dr. something is really wrong with you.

I can’t believe this! Luann finally found the perfect boyfriend and all she does is being selfish towards him.

Actually, the talk of “La La La” is inspiring me to work on a parody of the "Delfonics’ Hit….the seed planted for “La La Means I Cant Hear You”….
