Maybe Luann should have just volunteered Knute, in the first place. You won’t even have to worry about tackling the bathrooms ….he’s got plenty of experience…

Hey, my favorite tidy bowl man is back, can Crystal be far behind?
Dreamdeer over 9 years ago
I always love an appearance of Knute. And I love the new look of confidence in Ox!
kenhense over 9 years ago
Luann should skip Quill’s theater thing to help here. Remodeling the new performance space is a big commitment to the benefit of everybody including Luann & Quill.

Gary: I wouldn’t count on Tiffany showing up. Not out of selfishness, but probably more so because she’s probably ‘creeped out" even when it’s her own stuff to tidy…

@Brd: Lol, at least the ads still work…

These are the only two they need. They are workers and will get it done.

There’s an echo in here.There’s an echo in here.
I’d be surprised if Luann even invited Tiffany to help out — though I’d expect Ox to ask her. Then again, if Luann is hung up at work, Tiffany may be hung up by the same thing.

All I get are the ads, and they won’t let me even go to A to Z before they load. This sucks.

@IamJayBluE" I wouldn’t count on Tiffany showing up. Not out of selfishness, but probably more so because she’s probably ‘creeped out" even when it’s her own stuff to tidy…"That and Gunther’s not going to be there. So I’d say no chance whatsoever.

Frank and Nancy are not too bad off for a first day. Knute is experienced and enthusiastic; this is one job he will do well. And Oxford has plenty of brute strength and willingness to help however he’s directed.Go for broke!

Great!!! Not only do I have to read you hot shots in STEREO, now I’m also getting you in QUADROPHONIC.

Ah, so the warehouse may become the new “Weenie World…” the place where the “gang” gathers together….

It’s like Mickey Mouse in ‘Fantasia’ the comments keep multiplying.

I wonder if the final panel is an homage to the final panel in this popular web comic?

Hey Where there are TWO “Volunteers” There are MANY, Ma and Pa DeGroot! So HOP To It!
Say, Why Not Pass the Time with a little Interesting Chit-Chat?
Why Don’cha Tell Old OX that His “Pal” Gunther, Has Been Playing “Patty-Cake” with Tiffany?

That’s the problem with free help: they’re rarely free to help.
GrandmaMae over 9 years ago
TJ supplied the money as his contribution. He doesn’t need to help with the cleanup!

Well, fellow commenters, here’s my take on the GoComics site problem: Yesterday it started repeating commenters’ messages. My theory is that an employee (or committee) was told to remove the “Find a comic/SEARCH” section at the top of the page, and just leave the bottom one (except for the first time someone signs on). That way, we have to see all the ads, from top to bottom. In the process, the “repeat” process was activated and the “Reply” function was trashed. Also, all the comments were often re-repeated at the end. (Maybe this person [or committee] was a refugee from Amazon, still in shock.)

I have been sending this message around to the sites I read:News flash: For the second day, the doppelgänger hacker is on the prowl! Whatever you post will be repeated. Just delete one of the posts, and all will be well.

The site will not let me reply to comments. Is anyone else having this trouble?

Gary13: absoloutely! If you invest in a project like this you should be right there trying to make it pay off.
JayBluE over 9 years ago
@ pointspread: Yup! Site wide, too!
JayBluE over 9 years ago
@Brd: No, I don’t mean “pop ups”. I don’t get those, either- except for that one that tries the “side-step”. I was referring to just ads in general, even for the “Ooh! Click on this site!” kinds…
JanLC over 9 years ago
When Luann asked everyone to be there, they would have known and told her at that time that they had conflicting schedules. Bad planning and communication.
JayBluE over 9 years ago
@ Crash: Yup, he may even serve now, as a “buffer” between some of the cast and Tiffany… – @Dave: Ha ha, Knute must’ve been the night crew on shift cleaning up near the servers, and had a spill… – @MMMarvel: Good point about Tiffany’s possibly working… – @Gary (Re: “investments”): That’s a true statement! Though TJ has a pretty “chillax” attitude (actually, more so like ‘as mellow and easy as a one legged sloth’), and barely could manage the truck. He even said he didn’t get in the truck business to have to “manage” it, just to cook food, and then he got bored with it (Ha ha, and remember when he had Quill all alone to run it, for a time?)

@ JPW: (2 Lye Crew:) Ha ha ha!!! (409:) Good reference! The Beach Boys song swirled with an undertow in my mind as well, as I was thinking about the cleaning product (and the one “urban legend” of the source of its name being from the Chevy engine)…
JayBluE over 9 years ago
@ Gokie and Dave (in re: process for getting rid of posts): I had that same experience, as well.

luann and her friends are useless. mr and mrs degroot should make sure to update their will to state the event space goes to brad when they die.

Also taking a moment to remember Yvonne Craig (Batgirl/Marta in “Whom Gods Destroy” from Star Trek, and a hearty ballet/dance talent)… - And a local personality in my area, who dressed as Batman and visited children in hospitals who was struck and killed this past week, as he was making repairs to his replica “Lincoln model” Batmobile, as it had broken down on the road…

Yes! Couldn’t ask for better!

Tiffany is coming in her French maid’s costume, and Crystal, the sexy Goth with the dusting cloth, will just suddenly appear out of a cloud of black smoke.

7Well, even though the warehouse arc is still not one of my favorite on-going arcs in “Luann”, I do again have to say that today’s comic is good. I think it will potentially be a riot having Ox and Knute both working on things. I predict they will be akin to a new age “Laurel and Hardy”.
transylvanian over 9 years ago
This looks like it’s going to get ugly. :(
thebigboot over 9 years ago
Good ole Luann, volunteers her friends before asking them then can’t be bothered to tell her parents she can’t do it until they wonder where she is.
maverick1usa over 9 years ago
Where are . . .-————————————————————-And Toni & Bwad er Brad?
maverick1usa over 9 years ago
I have absolute faith in these two.-————————————————————-Knute can handle it with his back up Ox!

Of all the gang, those two are the most likely to actually do a good job.

Good to see Knute back! One of my favorite characters. And who better to help clean?
Argy.Bargy2 over 9 years ago
This is why volunteer efforts don’t always succeed – volunteers can’t always be as available as they hope. If people expect them to stay later at a job (where they are being paid), or they have family commitments, the volunteer effort ends up with a lower priority.
Even the most dedicated volunteers have to honor other commitments. If there is a time crunch on a project, it’s always best to hire someone.
lmonteros over 9 years ago
Those two are better than Luann and all the rest of her friends combined.

I’m Ox is there. He will be strong enough to beat up the people who give Knute a hard time for getting all obsessive and maternal over the toilets.

I’m glad Ox is there; oops.

-Ox didn’t invite Tiffany to Luann’s party, why would he invite her to Luann’s cleanup?
