Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for April 25, 2022

I’d rather hear some more Gossip from the Moonie Roomies! lol

Well, it looks like Bernice got what she always wanted… getting caught in the act.

So why did she even invite Nil over, if the Degroots were going to be coming right back?

NEXT:

”Busted!” ✨

Remain calm, Bernice. Remain… calm.

Well, you wanted to get caught. Now what?

Orgasmic?

Two options: hide him somewhere (in the closet, under the bed), or push him out the window.

And as we speed onwards to the inevitable train wreck, we hear Nancy say, “We’re home.”

well, since you are a fully clothed adult, you are probably ok Bernice

Who beside the Parental Units might if be?

Ziiiiiip!

Oopsie…

Pretty sure a blind person could’ve seen this plot twist coming. I called it a week ago, for example.

And as I said before, Nil needs to grow a spine and dump this nutjob, because this is as good as things are gonna get with her. Maybe he should get a drink with Zane and Piro and swap horror stories.

YASSSS!! Catch her in the act!!

Just checking because he said he had something in his eye.

The face this lady makes is priceless.

By the way, Dr. Ruth is 93 now. For some reason I just remembered her. I really don’t know why.

They aren’t doing anything other than kissing, that’s NOT sex or even remotely dirty. Why did bernice sit straight up like she’s riding nil and why is she making her mouth look full?

Well, it’s not like they’re both nekked!!!

Bern – Let us know if you’re ever actually in trouble.

“At that moment, Bernice felt the real terror”

At least this time it’s Bernice getting burned and not the building.

Bernice hears Frank walking in.

Now that the real “danger” has arrived, Bernice stops dead in her tracks. If danger was really that close, she should have been ripping their clothes off.

Degroots? Frank and Nancy? Luann?

More ‘girl talk’ on the horizon, and Agee off panel stories shared about Frank “The Stallion” deGroot.

Bernice is going to have a whole new outlook on Mr. deGroot.

Derp. Through the auspices of autocorrect, “a few”Somehow morphed into Agee.

How disappointing! Now what will Bernice do? Will she introduce Nil to the Degroots with a little embarrassment or run into her room and telling him to hide in the closet? Probably she’ll panic, so Nil will have to be the mature and rational person, as always, and decided what to do.

One more week I suppose. Hope Bernice gets embarrassed at the end. Or dumped.

She’s gonna blow chunks.

Wanna get out this and avoid possible embarrassment, Bernice?

Then scream:

“Help, Help! A strange man has broken into the house and is holding me hostage!!! Thank GOD! You’ve finally showed up!!!”

Then fake faint!

Hey.

And if Nil has a problem with it, just call the performance “art.” ;-)

Bernice looks like she sat on a pine cone…

This whole storyline is stupid. They’re in college, not high school.

OMG! The embarrassment! The shame! They’re both fully dressed!

Nil was just helping her study for her psychology test on “The Impact of PDA on Society”.

Nil is finally being serious, just when Bernice is about to get her freak on!

No zippers were lowered during this make out session

Something else just puckered up.

Will Bernice lie about Nil?

Are we now going to get one of these weird sitcom plots where Nil hides in the closet, Frank needs to get something from the closet, and hijinks ensue?

“Quick, hide under the bed!”“I can’t!”“Why not?”“It won’t fit under the bed frame!!”

Pre coitus interreptus, this being Luannverse, in Luann home, with hilarity ensuing at the least.

Don’t they have a car with a back seat? Geez! Learn the way we did.

Ruh Wro!

Ah, Memories

Deaf via horny will always lead to embarrassing gotcha moments

This is where Bernice claims to be subduing a nefarious bugler and thus saving the family’s valuables. Great cover. Horrible lie. But, great cover.

I never saw lips pucker IN before. Poor Nil, he deserves someone more emotionally stable.

This storyline couldn’t possibly get more tedious.

They still have their clothes on so what’s the big deal??

It’s only Monday, and already we’re at an uncomfortable spot. Just go somewhere private, do what you have to do, and move on.

What’s the big deal? She’s a 25 year old kissing her boy friend. Was this strip written in 1843?

Oops. Foiled again.

Relax – it’s just Luann and Puddles.

No biggie, they still have their clothes on and he’s wearing his cap!

Hmmm, maybe if they were naked it would be embarrassing, but otherwise no so much

This is my second more visceral comment/reaction: this is TOO FUNNY! I guffawed when I first saw it, and each time I look at it and I laugh out loud again. It’s priceless! Should make up for all those who keep looking for gag-a-day in this complex, episodic, cross-stories strip.

I love how Bernice has climbed aboard! ‘The Tigress pounces upon her prey!” LolNow I will never look upon her in the same way. Man eater! LolPretty much high school shenanigans! Love it! I do recall a very similar experience.I also remember the somewhat bewildered look on her parents faces as I was Introduced to them and then quickly made my escape. Bit awkward! Hahaha!

I wonder if Nil’s hearing is above average with his eyesight limited.

I wonder who Nil is living with?

Just sit down, let Nil sit up and start a conversation, just as though you were sitting there ……. having a conversation with Nil. Seems kinda simple to me.

Bernice, you got some explaining to do. (With apologies to Desi Arnaz.)

At least they’re still dressed.

Looks like a mouthful…

How often do people yell “We’re home!” when they get home? How big is the house that you have to yell that you’ve arrived?

It’s better to take your glasses off when you kiss…

I like the fact that he stays straight with her.

Got your rush yet, Bernice?

Hmm… what’s she got a mouthful of?

What? Nancy never necked on the living room sofa before she was married? I’m sure she’ll remember those long, lost hormonal days.

Last panel——Bernice looks like she swallowed a lemon.

5 days left! What will happen? Will the Degroots kick Bernice out? What will Luann say? Will Nil break up with Bernice?

Of all of the old original Luann characters, Greg Evans really gave Bernice the shaft.

All of the other kids aged pretty nicely, even Tiffany. But poor Bernice went from an awkward kid who made pithy comments to an awkward, judgmental adult with a stick up her butt.

Either make Bernice relatable, or demote her to Sunday strips and pithy observations.

Well, can’t a couple of college friends get together to talk about current events? And in the living room?? I mean, their buttons are all buttoned, it appears, and it’s hard to imagine that anyone as “cool” as Nil would be so excited at this point that there would be visible stains anywhere. Anyway his habitual ankle length coat would be a help.

Good hearing…..

If I were the homeowner, I would be less than pleased to find that my rent-free boarder is now taking the liberty of bringing strange young men into my home when I’m away in order to score a quick hook-up. I think that kind of oversteps the trust line a bit. She could have at least shown the DeGroots the common courtesy of having the discussion about visitors beforehand. I don’t think their own daughter would do this, much less Bernice. This is really a stupid story. Destined to only get stupider and stupider I am sure. Yay.

And even though Bernice is hiding in the closet,she has agreed to become the mother of her children.

I got an email saying the problem with the comment section has been fixed. I guess they took it to the vet.

Lemons?

That looks like a face she might make if they’d had another 15 minutes alone.

Lying prone on a couch like that leads to a lot more than just kissing, let me tell you.

They’re lucky the DeGroots didn’t come back 15 minutes later than they did.

Most persons entering their own house would not feel the need to shout “I’m home”. Maybe Nancy has gotten used to doing that as a heads up to kids who might be engaged in some clandestine activity that they don’t want their parents to see, and which Nancy would rather not have to see.

So satisfying to see Bernie shocked! Living dangerously has the inherent danger of DANGER….

Bern’s face and position in the last panel are rather “suggestive”. I agree with previous comment: who in the world announces they are home, besides Ricky Ricardo? Is there an unfamiliar car in the DeGroot driveway that prompted this?

And straight to the finish line!

I wanted to see a more playful Bernice but I didn’t expect to see that face in panel 3. Nils should remember that expression, they way these 2 are going, he’ll see that expression again very soon. You know what I mean!!
