Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for May 10, 2022

Whether Tiff uses it is irrelevant. The Hut time should be split equally. I don’t think Kip thinks Stef is worth $10 an hour. She’s more worthy of the 99 cent bin. LOL

’

Auctioning of Prime Times? Does Bets ever think of anything besides money? lol

Good question, Dez.

Wake up Kip, time to dump that headache

And I thought this arc was distasteful before! Blech!

Time for Kip to apply for welfare.

“Negotiations In Progress …” ✨

Chaos reigns. Supreme inanity. Take me outta here Percy!

This reminds me of Pulp Magazine collecting. When asked what was a fair price for a magazine was the answer would be “whatever the buyer is willing to pay.” What is a day in the Privacy Hut worth — whatever Stef is willing for Kip to pay.

Does Stef have no money of her own to buy Tiffany her time?

Kip has a sports scholarship and with that Stef will want to pay?

Happy mother’s day in Mexico.

news flash, the Privacy Hut…isn’t

Oh, Tiff’s good at this!

Tiff drives a hard bargain.

10 an hour? Ask for 20!

Tiff is finally showing some business major chops!

Maybe Tiff would just like to get away from YOU for whatever the time limit it.

Bets is the smartest one in that bunch.

Two business majors, one “free expression” student and a professional cheer team.

Just divvy up the time slots with a ticket drawing? And then sell the time slots?

When did privacy get so unprivate? When you take the privates out of privacy.

Who changes the sheets in there? You could charge extra for clean sheets.

What the heck were you expecting moving into a quad dorm with doubles bedrooms, Dez? You’re lucky your roomies even went along with the privacy hut idea.

Oh…I don’t know Kipper… can’t you just take your “Bimbo” to your room?

The Hut is starting to sound like a low budget brothel. You pays your money and you gets your thrills, no refunds, no happy hour specials.

”SCHOOL’S-OUT-FOR-SUMMER!!!” – Alice Cooper

There.

“Problem” solved.

Stef isn’t using her brain here. While Tiff is in the privacy hut, Stef and Kip could be in the room instead. Free.

$10/hour??

That’s not even minimum wage!!

Kipper was so surprised to see he and Steffo were on the calendar every day… because he didn’t realize he and she boink in there every day? He’s not too bright. Geez, he’s even too dumb to think of another place to boink.

I’m with Dez here. This is getting weird, Tiffany and Bets are totally in their element as business major and thinking about how to make the most quantity of money out of this situation. Stef thinks she’s worth every possible amount. Kip and Dez seem to be the only two reasonable people in the room… I kinda start to ship them. The famous athlete and the mother nature… they would be a very interesting couple♡.

Pricey strip today.

When is Kippy gonna dump that b*tch?

Suppose….. they just construct ANOTHER privacy hut? … then they would have two of them…

So Stef thinks that Kip should pay $10 an hour for her … um … “company”, or “services”, or whatever. The phrase “Cheap little ten dollar wh***” most certainly fits, and nobody should be surprised.

She needs to be assured that she’s worth $10 per hour?

Like Reagan telling Gorbachev “tear down this hut,” this is going no where.

Ohhhh ! That, Luann !

For crissakes…..GET A ROOM.

If this storyline ends with Stef upset, it’ll be the first good one in a long while.

Privacy became unprivate when you all moved into a dorm room. That’s why you had to create the hut.

and expensive…

This is getting even more ridiculous than it was before. Just take down the privacy hut, tell Stef and Kip that the room is no longer their private bordello and if they want to keep messing around to go do it in HIS room, and then get to your classes.

It really depends on how the split would go, since I assume they’re not doing 24 hour scheduling since they would need to sleep and such, but if they are rotating 24 hours, that’s 6 hours a day for Tiff, so $60 for her time daily. Or about the cost of a no-tell Motel room…

don’t try to use logic Kip…

Steph and Kip don’t actually use it every day. Steph only books it every day for appearance, to be braggy in her own words. That’s why Kip doesn’t seem to mind sharing and won’t pay as 1/4 of the time is enough for him.

Bets always is thinking about ways to monetize things, Gunther will for sure be a Silicon Valley billionaire someday, no dramatic divorce? Just tripping (lol). Tiffany is pushing Stef on whether Kip really thinks his private hut time with Kip makes her really worthwhile to him or not. What does this portend tome is the real story, but as I always warn, plot misdirection play lurks.

The value of privacy shows up…

And Bets continues to to expand on her business idea.

Kip allows himself to be used, in exchange for………..and yet he is not happy; we are all waiting for him to grow a spine.

Stef, you’re worth at least 50 cents.

time to abolish the privacy hut!! and set up rules on cohabitation, privacy and good neighborliness

As of right now, Tiffany’s slots maybe unused, at least for the the same purpose Steff uses her slots for the Privacy Hut. But in the future?Bets is very money driven, EXCEPT when she’s snuggling (?) with Gunter. And, Roz’s question does raise a point.

the great thing about this deal is Tiff gets more private time in her dorm room and less time listening to Steph.

Look at all that space. They should just put up another blanket fort; there’s plenty of room. All this fuss for nothing…

Boring

I forget….is Tiff a business major?

25% of college graduates make under $30,000 per year.

Even if they divide the day/evening hours among the 4 roommates, Stefi and Kip will still get 2 separate hours every day. Sex twice a day should be more than enough, even for college students. No one needs more than one hour at a time in the hut.

All Kip can mutter is “Oh fer?”

Not to be a one note complainer, but I thought this strip was called “LuAnn”?

When one of you became a hog!

All of a sudden Tiffani got smart.

Tiffany’s getting her privacy already.

To be serious a moment, this arc shows the value of students living in a dorm for at least their first year. Look how each one is reflecting how they lived at home and now suddenly they have to deal with people from different backgrounds and values. I am not speaking of the details of this arc with the privacy hut issues but the broader issue of learning how to deal with people who are utterly different from how you were raised. That is the value of sharing a room in a dorm.

Tiffany will use that money for her business, whatever it was

At $10 an hour, he’ll only need about $1.80!

Kip, stand up for both yourself and the girls and tell Stef how they actually feel about the mess they’re in.

Good for you, Tiff. You’re a Devil Wearing Prada in the making. Like father, like daughter!

Kip was actually whispering “offer”…… offer her $5

And NOW we know why college debt can be so high for some and so low for others.

There are 2 bedrooms in their student apartment. The only ones that want to use the privacy hut are Dez and Stef. Tiffany and Bets can spend time in the bedrooms when Dez or Stef are using the hut. It works fine without charging roommates to use a space they don’t use themselves. I would think they would be happy as when Dez or Stef are in the hut, they are not in their bedrooms.

“LuAnn” has become sleazy and not innocent fun anymore. Granted they are adults now but none of the recent story arcs is heartwarming or funny.

I don’t think that Stefi gets it that Tiff is being sarcastic. Betts on the other hand is truly thinking of an auction!

Lol! This is getting good. And again, Tiffany shows her business acumen. Dez, when Steff decided to impose her and Kip’s sexlife on you three. It will be interesting to see if Kip will stand, bend or break. ;-o

Reminds me of a packing crate apartment in Los Angeles.

That business class Tiff is taking is paying off.

Simple solution: go to Kip’s place.

Um, doesn’t Kip have a pad?

I am just so over this story, it’s boring

Between this storyline and Bern’s storyline, I’m thinking it’s a time to take a break from Luann. 6 of the least interesting characters in the comics

Bingo, Dez. You get it, in so many ways.

just wondering what her grades are like if she plans out so much time on her back.

Bets’ idea has no legs. The only one bidding would be Kef! That’s Kip and Stef’s names combined. or Stip??? Either way it sounds Bad!

Evidence has been clear enough for one of two things: either Kip can’t get enough, or Tiff can’t. Maybe both. But it appears that even wall-to-wall sex doesn’t, in Kip’s eyes, blot out all other considerations.

At this stage,all the Privacy Hut needs is a neon sign 5 stories tall.

Was it George Bernard Shaw who said, We’ve already established that, ma’am, now we’re just haggling about the price.

I agree with the naked yoga lady. Sorry just forgot her name at the time.

Bets! Please shut up!

If she has slots, she’ll find a use for it. .

Oddly enough, I’m starting to enjoy this…

“The Cost Is Clear”

“A Piece Of The Auction”

“The Price Is, Right?”

“Bid One For The Kipper”

“Demanding Equally Time”

“The Divvy, You Say?”

“All Shoog Up”

Time for Kip to exit; stage left or stage right, it doesn’t matter.

Well played, Tiffany!

As the old canard goes, we already know what kind of girl Steffi is; now, we’re just haggling over price!

Wait until Stef finds out that the Real Reason Kip wants to spend so much time in the Hut is because he is so broke he can’t even afford Ramen Noodles for two people.

Stef is becoming quite a pathetic character – first she is obsessed with her sex life being perceived as “epic” by filling in all the days on the calendar – now she’s concerned about her sexual skills being valued at $10 an hour…..wow.

What I like about this strip is that they don’t wear the same outfit throughout the strip like most other comic strips. Well, everyone except the entitled cheerleader.

Why hasn’t anyone noticed that as long as Stef is in the privacy HUT, Tiffany has their ROOM to herself.
