Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for April 19, 2016

Bet this is going to be a swell club.

Poor Bernice.

The Luann Tracker is closing up shop.One last poll

If Bernice’s exhaustion appears blaséShe might well catch some eyesA person who thinks the best is okayIs sometimes a disguised prize.Eliza was once pronounced a royalAs may be a sleepy Bern.Being ignored can make interest boilAnd cause lofty heads to turn.

If this plays out more like a fifties flickThen Luann will have cause to singOr perhaps her joking will do the trickAnd lead to a surprising fling.

If the night is destined to be badShe will encounter mention of a prickly lad,Or perhaps even see the cad,But i’d rather a new one than bad cad lad.

Now like Bernice i must close my eyes.Tomorrow perhaps there will be a surprise,Or maybe their night will take several days.I need some sleep now either way.

Bern is still on California time!

Will Luann and Bern be arrested for underage drinking in a night club? Come back tomorrow, same Luann time, same Luann channel!

Why do I believe this will be a recipe for a disaster.

Espresso for Bernice – make it a double.

Sounds like a “Selfie” moment for Bernice….

Wait until they find out they can’t get in.

Or Rio.

Ugh what a bad pun! Is this a real place?

Club Foote might not really be the “celebs” place tp be seen as Luann is describing to Bernice. Might simply be a hookah lounge where artist and theater-types hang out.

Or physically disabled can go without being ridiculed.

Afterward, they can go to the latest pirate themed bar, the “Aye Patch”, if it’s not blocked by protestors with Amblyopia.

All those places that eat late into night get nice siestas in the afternoon of at least two hours remember.

Now if You REALLY wanted to Wake Bernice up, You shoulda said something like THIS, Lu:

(A-Hem)

“HEY BERN WAKE THE HECK UP!! I’M GOING TO GET A CLUB FOOT, BUT PIRO IS HERE TO KEEP YOU COMPANY AND DO UNDRAWABLE THINGS TO YOU UNTIL WHEN AND IF I GET BACK!!! SO RISE AND SHINE!!!!”

THAT’LL Wake Her UP…..,

“Sleep Is For Suckas!”“I’m In With The In Crowd” (♫)“We’re Runnin’ With The Shadows Of The Night” (♪)“A Sight For Snore Eyes”“Rise And Slobber”“Spring Way, Way Forward”“Shift Differential”“Slip Into Something Less Comfortable”“Moon Shadow, Eye Shadow”“Runnin’ With The Night, Playin’ In The Shadows” (♫)“Tourist Trappings”“Giving Me The CBGB’s”or“Moon Over My Jammies” (♫)

That was thoughtful of Luann to get dressed before waking Bernice to give her more nap time. She will enjoy though it is probably really LOUD in the club.

Expect to wait in line all night.

Guess who Lulu will see there, take a guess…..her ex!!

I seem to recall a ‘club foot’ in a Pink Panther movie.

Lu, throw cold water on her! This is the way memories are made, stories you can enchant your grand kids with.

Berenice… 18 going on 50.And that is one of Lu’s “slinky” dresses?

…Evans should not be writing a comic about teens.

This strip is so typical Lu and Bern! They will go and yes, lavubua, I thought the same thing. We don’t know exactly where Q-boy is right now do we?

Ooooooh boy,. SEEN by whom exactly?

Famous for what exactly?

A GLAMOROUS night club? or A glamorous night club?

Celebrities according to whom?

You will find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly upon your point of view.

Don’t give up on Bernice, everybody. She’ll rally, if she can just find the p.p.’s that she packed, somewhere.

Hope they have fun at Club Foote (what a name). Will they be able to get in though? Not because of the time, but because of the crowd. I bet either or both will meet very interesting characters of course, and possible new love interests. Should be interesting.

I can see an incident brewing similar to what Lucy did to William Holden.

JPuzzle…. yesterday, you replied to me that you were being serious about your dislike of the use of the term “Club Foote”. This is in reply to that name:To my way of thinking, I really did not see an association to the disorder until folks brought it up here. For me, the spelling “Foote” is IMO reason enough to disassociate the club’s name from the medical condition. Foote is a relatively common surname (think Shelby Foote for instance). It could be used in that fashion. Also, a club where there is dancing would seem to be a legitimate use of Foot (or Foote) being illiterative. So, I guess to me, thinking the name is in bad form… does not fit in this circumstance. There are several non-medical condition ways this name could have been meant, and so for me, anyhow, it does not seem an insensitive or problematic name choice.

Now they will learn why club goers use molly to keep up all night.

I wonder if Club Foote is a take-off on Studio 54 (probably doesn’t exist anymore)..a celebrity night club

Walking and waiting at night in NYC

Okay here people are worrying about clubfoot — which i can atest did not prevent me working w wild animals and both prospecting and assisting in a study in the jungles of Suriname in the 70s — when at the same time multiple people here have a much worse and avoidable handicap.

Of course, i am referring to the people who purposely post nasty and hateful posts.

Usually, those posters are going to be 12 to 14 year old boys who are having trouble maturing and are screaming for attention so they can competitively count the replies, i.e. Flame Baiters. Of course, being twelve to fourteen is itself hard but most people mature past that. Sadly, a few of the Flame Baiters and Trolls appear from their writing to be older than 14, yet still engaging in hatred of people or places, insults without foundation, and cries for attention in any way they can get it. That is a horrid handicap.

Their chosen behavior is a terribly serious handicap, sadder still because there are constructive ways to avoid or stop it, especially when the brat behavior is from someone older than 14.

Q: Why is Lu combing her hair BEFORE she changes out of her nightshirt? I am so looking forward to seeing that black slinky dress!

Today’s strip makes it very clear that L and B are doing everything Pru tells them to.

They do need to spend more time actually thinking.

When i was an adult student i recall an 18 year old one just repeating some claptrap a prof had said that day. Once a person thought about what was said, the statement made no sense and there were multiple reasons why, so i sat down with him and went through points one by one, and after a while he was thinking and adding more on his own. Two days later he presented the list to the prof who exclaimed “Finally!” and added that it was about time someone began thinking because he was fed up with freshmen who behaved like recording machines.

It is so typical for the age, though, isn’t it? Whether being scholastic, or joining some group, or whatever, the late teens and sometimes the early twenties is a common time for “follow the leader”, with following that lacks questioning and lacks seeing the problems with the proffered postulations and propositions.

twgtwg said,Wow. 18 year olds in bed before 10:30? Lame sauce.++++++++++++++++++++++Don’t forget jet-lag.

So “army wrestling” or “banana splint” would not suggest anything other than the literal meaning, I guess.

Go as you are, if you dare, Bernie. You will not seem unusual amidst the NYC late clubbing set. But, go!

No, but Heade of lettuce would!

Hey Bernice, there’s a reason NYC is known as “The city that never sleeps.”

SPOILER ALERT

“Innocents abroad” might apply. Hope all will be well, but fear that events might not be as expected…

Bernice’s nightgown reminds me of “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”
