Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for January 06, 2014

They’re dancing to the sound of the windmills in their mind… – I guess Lu and Quill are also volunteering to be the clean-up crew…

Is that another slightly risque joke?

“Same Difference, Different Similarities”“Complimentary Contrasts”“Equal Divergence”“The Chaos Arrangement”or“A Pair Of Docs”

At least this couple seems to be happy. The only reason why Luanna’s frustrated right now is that she needs some…serious relief. Fortunately Quill can help her with that. Unfortunately, Frank will be most displeased.

It’s Little Richard in there….~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Nah, it’s a roll of quarters.

“Not all I want, but I like what I DO have.”

“The Girl Can’t Help It”….

“Sponsored” by…Silent D and J’s…. “No more fighting over song choices!…. D and J will play songs for your gathering that you haven’t heard before, and won’t hear anywhere else!… Guaranteed!…”….“Ask J about our specials… and don’t bother trying to ask D, he’s the silent partner…” – Nite And Day Cereal…. "Now comes In both “Healthy” and “Flavored” varieties!"… – and by…Oxy Maroon’s…. “Fun for the whole family, and the ultra trendy!!!”…"Cheeseburger dining, caviar prices!"…

Well……………

Since we know Lu isn’t going to become an unwed Mom, I can only guess that they will both be taking cold showers, tonight

Let propinquity propinque!

Slightly risqué, Sara? (Rhetorical question… Strangely, Rhetorical never answers them)

Hopefull, the pretty boy has to take his cold shower, in Oz.

The old trouser worm strikes again.

Coincidentally, in today’s “Nancy”, she is battling rainy day songs, and rainy day days…. – Argy , you’d probably get a kick out of that one!…

Meanwhile, on the Berger’s front doorstep, Gunther is becoming a man. Or as much of a man as he can become in five minutes with his mother waiting on him.

They are engaged in intimate though-sharing. Building a relationship that is good and endearing.

I guess that can’t be a scam, then… people would be able to see the transparency in that business….

I’m still wondering if this was a school dance, or did someone rent out the Pitts Area Convention Center?….

My momma always said that dancing is a vertical expression of a horizontal intention. “There’s something between us…I think it’s my _ _ _ _ _…”

Now, now, you two! Leave some room for the Holly Spirit.

As for the venue, I think it’s the Pitt"s Country Club. Where their slogan is, "Even our country club is the Pitts!

This gave me a sweet memory of my first high school dance date. A blonde, she wore a similar blue dress and the band played…….“Devil with the Blue Dress On”!

Having happily gotten rid of my virginity at 15 (46 years ago) I kind of think that the strip’s morality is a little out of date (and very sweet). But let’s get real. Luann is actually in her what — late 30s or early 40s as far as the actual timeline goes?

Just thought I’d share this with you (and everybody else!)… – Just a bunch of “funny” expressions that people misquote, like: “Supposably”, “For all intended purposes”, or “Cutting off your nose in spite of your face”….

“Contented frustration” sounds as if this strip will spend the rest of the year continually bringing the characters to the very verge of doing something, and then they’ll stop. Over and over again, because they’re contented to do that. Now, there’s something for all readers to look forward to!

he does need to move those hands lower.

♫♪ “Ya keep a knockin’ but ya cain’t come in…” ♪♫

“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooo” ;-PPPP

Should this author be more careful, before he gets into trouble?And, doesn’t the blonde bombshell have a date?

Okay, WHERE The HELL Is THIS Dance’s Chaperon?!!?

The “Music” been OVER for 45 Minutes, We CAN’T See Daylight Between THESE Two and This Gal Using an ILLEGAL “Choke-Hold” on This Durn Foreigner!

QUICK, Somebody Call 911 While I Use a Crowbar to SEPARATE ’Em!!!

Evans is right on the money. Teenagers have sex imprinted in neon straight on the cortex. They’re interested and the innuendoes are gonna fly. (at least they did when I was a teenager…)

Let’s get something straight between us…

Very 1950s.

Double entendre from team Evans???

Hmmm, I wonder what Gunther and Rosa are up to? Come on Greg, don’t leave us hangin like this!

Hmmm, I wonder what Gunther and Rosa are up to? Come on Greg, don’t leave us hangin like this!

Will those two go out to their Toyota Corolla and lower the passenger side front seat as far as it will go. Then years later, when the bumper sticker that says, “Try it in a Toyota”, becomes popular again, they will snicker and say, “It’s as easy said as done.”

“That’s okay, darlin’. Where I come from, it’s all down below.”

To heck with sex ed classes and hygiene classes and health classes— Mom, have you yet had your talk with Luann about family expectations, morals, plans for the future, fulll disclosures?

I was eventually expecting a Mae West quote.

Obviously, at least for the moment, Quill is an outie

It sounds like Luann is attracted to him but can wait a while. Rosa would love to have a man who was attracted to her and could show it. Thank goodness we don’t have to suffer through more awkwardness with Gunther this week.

This is a “Family Strip”, Mr. Evans. I read “Luann” because it is. Please remember that.

after 30 years of marriage, I miss that feeling!

-what exactly is “contented” frustration?-I think what is being said is that Luann is very attracted, but willing to wait – what Locake said.about 30 minutes ago…

When the DJ leaves, usually the crowd disperses. Why are so many people still there, and why are their feet pointed toward the dance floor? Oh.

Not in this comic, pal

Bla bla bla….boooooring

Ha ha …and creepy Gunther’s already home sipping warm milk with mommy.

WTF?

Will any of these characters ever get it on? What is this, the 50s.

First, who said Brad & Toni (both 20+) are not sleeping together. Second, if my mid-fifties high school days are any example, most couples going steady for more than a year were having [carefully] sex. This thread may be leading in that direction.

Ever notice that there are fewer comments on snow days and weekends? Hmmm, wonder why!

Talkin’ ’bout frostbite, the Green Bay Packers packed it in yesterday.

-I see you aren’t the romantic type-LOL! You really do have a good sense of humor. You should show it off more often!

Like I was saying yesterday, Baaaaaad sports weekend around here!!!…

That’s how I learned the books in the O.T.: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Judges, Toni.

So I submit my Lamentations to interested Hebrews and yourself that my remarks were incomplete.

-I give up. Who is it?

-Well, it’s not Ruth….

More like “Slow dancing,swaying to no music”

-@how the duck-Are you actually asking this question seriously?-No, he’s not. He’s trying to make a joke. Some of us have gently suggested that he keep his day job, but he still tries to make jokes.

Meanwhile, Gunther’s already asleep and Rosa is home strumming her guitara

something popped up between them snort! Of course as the father of a teenaged daughter ARMS LENGTH APART MISTER!!!!!

This song from England Dan and John Ford Coley is the second official song of Jay and Nissey (the Mrs. and I), entitled “Just The Two Of Us”. It kinda captures the romantic aspects of the fact that they are dancing all alone, to the music in their minds and hearts, and have “shut the world out”, relatively speaking, as they enjoy each other’s presence… – The second official song of us is also in a similar vein, “Slow Dancing”, both the Johnny Rivers and the Olivia Newton John version and our third song is “Reminiscing” by Little River Band"… these two songs are also brought to mind, at least for me, when I see today’s strip….

So, Luann is content with her frustration? I guess that’s her way of saying she’s not yet ready to go all the way, even though in love with Quill. They’re nice kids….

I’ve said it before, and I hold fast to this…. I personally did have experience….many like me (male and female) also have …but… my wife didn’t …. and believe it or not, there are those like her, who have waited until marriage….. not everybody is doing it… – Before I met her, I came to see the value of waiting until marriage, and my wife (who came to this conclusion before meeting me, and shares the same religious values, outlook, etc.) herself saved herself until marriage… we enjoy a healthy married life, where we can enjoy each other physically and emotionally within the bounds of our marriage… – But, again, my point is, that there is evidence that not everybody is doing it… and our ability to control our flesh and feed it at the right times and also our ability to reason is part of what makes us human, and separates us from creatures who only go on instinct and emotion…..

Well, I have to say that I appreciate your humor, and I do appreciate a wide variety of humor on GoComics, as well as here on Luann…..

You say a third claim to be new and unused.That would mean two thirds do not make that claim.Then you say the average age of first time is 16 ot younger, as if that disputes the two thirds number.Me not see you problem..Statistics a problem?.Next question: Do you believe every member of a data set does whatever the average does?

Most are not judged by the lowness of the group but by the heights of the individual..Resardless, if you have your heart set on watching people “do the deed”, there are many sites which will gratify you..And yes, it would still be considered slutty as the names and titles on your kind of sites makes clear. If you do not consider such events other than “just another day” as some pretend, then you are fooling yourself. (The 573rd might not be special, but as Banana makes clear, FIRST is different. But maybe you think this would be number 573, which will likely be at 83 for thee.)

There is a segment of society that are clean. And they wish to be. I was a virgin when I married. I chose to be. Now if you (or others) choose not to be, that is your choice.

Beautiful, Greg. How nicely done.

Just because they are doing it does not mean it is right. If everyone you know is brain dead and jumping off a cliff, does mean you should? Use your head, man.

Off subject, sorry…. but up here, we’re slated to go 0-8°, with wind chills of 15-45°….

Bragging and flaunting your (relative) warmth? Now that’s just cold!!!….

BRRRRRR……The outside thermometer reads 7 degrees F and the wind is howling. That’s all for tonight. Will read further comments in the morning – unless we’ve lost electricity by then.

For the record – I’m in southeast Pennsylvania.

Sex is for marriage. For the marriage institution. It is not meant for use outside of marriage. It is a gift between a man and wife. List Corinthians 6:9: “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God? Be not deceived; neither Fornicators (sex outside of marriage) nor Idolators (worship of anything but God) nor Adulterers, nor Effeminate, etc..shall inherit the Kingdom Of God.” There is only one other place. If you choose to disregard God and all He stands for, that only leaves one other place. And it is a place of eternal fire and horror..torment with no relief. A wise man (person) will choose God’s side and live for Him now.

I think I can see the light from his grill on this side… Wow!!! He’s really cookin’ with gas!!… – Since you all are behind the times (3 hours or so, minutes may vary), I am looking at a barbecue in the past! …..

To choose God’s side, you make a choice. Choose to live for Him. Ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart now. “Lord Jesus, please come into my heart right now. Please forgive me for everything I have done wrong. I am sorry. I believe you are the Son of God. I give you my life. I will do everything I can to live for you. Thank you for saving me. Amen.” If you said this prayer and meant it —you are now God’s property. You have chosen God’s side.

There’s done well…. and well done… – And then there’s the taste of a BBQ… the best of both worlds!….

Wise one. And I agree with Said…that we all live in a land with the right to free speech and religious freedom. That is what makes it America. The land of the free.

Those words that so offend you are not my words. They are God’s. I am just the messenger. If you find God’s words unbearable, you will need to take it up with Him. I hear He’s up 24/7; they say He neither slumbers nor sleeps. Thanks.

You’re quite welcome!…

That’s fine..I just tire of those chanting, “DO IT DO IT DO IT! OR ELSE YOU’RE GAY!”.Sex should not be for the gratification of spectators nor should people engage in it to avoid name calling..I have three cousins fathered by a man who had to ignore the fact he was with a woman rather than what he REALLY wanted. They had a miserable life while growing up.Life should not be that bad.
