Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for December 16, 2022

Wow! I’m psychic!!! lol

Dez said exactly what I predicted she would say, today. Maybe I should buy some lotto tickets? hehe

That means tomorrow they will find out what really broke the window…. hopefully!

.

They need to wrap this up. I think it would be a great change of pace to have a Toni & Brad story. Since it’s Christmas time, they could have Brad dress up as Santa again.. maybe have a heartwarming firefighter toy drive contest?

Well, Tiffany, what do you propose happened?

Must’ve hit awfully hard to break and bend metal bars. ✨

I Tiffany knows what happened (as she is acting) then please let US know! She’s being pretty critical all week!

Good luck Tiff

Well, THAT eliminates birds and perhaps any other living creature going thru that window.

Good.

An animal going thru that window was a rather silly idea to begin with, IMO.

So.

Baseball, golfball, football or model rocket?

And will the ladies discover it? Or will some neighbor drag his kid over to apologize?

Oh, Tiff? Next time bring Gunther with like you. You know. Like you used to do before Bets showed up?He would have had this “mystery” wrapped up by this past Tuesday.

“Hee Haw and Merry Christmas! – Sam Wainwright”

[DUCKS] ;-)

I’m leaning towards Tiffs feelings there. Not sure she knows what happened. If she knows what happened, why would she have been so scared? And the glass was broken from the outside. When it happened, there was nothing to indicate how or why it broke. No bird came through. Nor did a rock. Instead of wild conjectures and theories, look around for clues – inside and out.

Time to call in the resident genius — Gunther Berger, aka The G-man, aka Gun!

Now that Tiff pretty much agrees with my comment from yesterday, she can throw them all out. Okay, G&K?

My speculation is that it was Ox. He threw a rock through the window so Tiffany would be startled into a panic, thus requiring his heroic intervention and giving him more attention. Plus, when he stayed to fix the door – which he kicked down to get to a distressed Tiffany – he had the perfect cover for retrieving and removing and disposing of the rock which he used to break the window.

Why is one bar bent inwards and another bar bent outwards?

Great, just great. Tif, the voice of sanity.

Tiff’s got it! Somebody threw a brain through the window.

Haha, Tiff has the best lines this week. She’s dropping them like bombs. She needs a magnifying glass to find any brains at all in this hallway.

WELL, birds ARE known to run into windows especially if they see something such as a worm on the exterior windowsill or a trinket. I had a bird smash into my dorm window and it died – and the window did crack. It didn’t make a hole but did crack it. A determined bird might sit on the windowsill and peck on the crack and it would cave in and create a hole. We looked around to figure out why the bird flew into our room window and found a silver earring lying on the interior windowsill. It was attracted to the shiny object. Nesting animals are known to pick up shiny things for their nests. well, as I said, Dez made the most sense than the other two.

Tiffany doesn’t care on finding the source? The focus of the storyline went from Tiffany to the broken window?

Tiff call Les and Gunther to take out the trash that the girls are talking.

Looks like there’s no way that this farce is going to be resolved in one more day, unless GnK pull out something really unbelievable.

The best we can hope for is a new story arc on Monday and this never getting resolved on-screen.

(BTW – where’s the window repair guy?)

God bless Tiffany! She used to have the dumbest lines – but now the smartest.

Nancy Drew and crew they certainly ain’t! :D

This has gotten very tedious.

Or, Tiff could push Steffi Bird out through the second story window, and they indeed would find a dead ‘Bird’ out in the bushes.

.

My, that is a bit dark, is it not?

Would a bird break the mullions?

Maybe the glass just spontaneously smashed.

The police didn’t search the house when they were there to find out how the window got broken? After all, if it turned out to be anything other than a burglar, Tiffany could have stayed in the house without worrying.

And a bird didn’t cut and bend those metal bars.

Is it my imagination or the perspective, but it seems like the hole in the window is getting bigger.

Jinkies, gang! Wonder if they drove over in the Mystery Van?

Tiff seems to be the smartest one in the hallway, but still, good luck finding a fully functioning brain among the 4 of them.

Tiff, you are spot on! ᕙ(͡°‿ ͡°)ᕗ

A thief with a child accomplice. Happened to my neighbor. I once went into my yard and saw a nice looking, tow-headed boy standing in his yard. He produced a ball and said; “I found it!” Satisfied, I then went back into by house. Unfortunately for my neighbor, he was sent in by a crook to look for an access point and/or see if anyone was home.

Earthquake. Look around to see if any of the furniture shifted.

Why do they have Tiffany being such a snarky a$$? Can’t G&K get through a whole week without making at least one character unlikable? Stephanie is probably already regretting her “apology”. Take off the sling and the old lady clothes Tiff, and try being decent to the girls who are wasting their time trying to help you.

Quote from feminist author Camille Paglia, “If civilization had been left in female hands we would still be living in grass huts.”

Notice none of these characters are calling a repairperson or even using cardboard to cover the hole in the window. Karen is the writer of this arc.

It’s me! It’s me! It’s Ernest T!

That poor imaginary bird… I think going down to the garden to check for something is a good idea. I wonder more and more what broke that piece of window.

Or here is a really crazy idea! A story about Luann cause without her there wouldn’t be a strip!

Hilarious wait, right?

Honestly, I’m enjoying this plot line. The women are building a sort of “Charlie’s Angels” camaraderie and each is making observations that match their own characters. I vote for the dorm mates living in the mansion next semester.

How long is Tiff going to wear that sling?

She’s been wearing it for at least a month for a sprained arm.

If she dislocated her shoulder the sling would make more sense but for that you still only need a sling for a few days.

I just hope they find that thief soon.

Maybe it’s the classic wayward baseball explanation.

OK – so Tiffany’s been a month at Les and Gunther’s, and the police have been there. Why is the window not repaired yet?

Bird brains, no doubt!

I think the brains are having fun storming the place for ideas… :p

Ok, Tiffany, can you come up with something more interesting to do while you wait for the repairman?

Maybe search for a soprano who can shatter glass with her amazing voice

A long time ago, there was a movie called “Clueless”. I think it’s time for a sequel….. “Clueless-er”..

Says the person who just walked away from it for a month, imposed on friends and expected them to wait on her, and apparently didn’t bother telling Dad, reporting it to the insurance company or getting a copy of the police report.

If we can drag this out for another week – I’m guessing Santa and a Reindeer broke the window. Does one of his Reindeer have a RED Nose??

Maybe someone threw a window through the window. The perfect crime. The only evidence is broken glass.

You know your group is doomed when Tiffany is the smart one.

I think it’s time to take the cast off!!

By now, some other critter will have eaten the bird.

I’m with Tiffany.

So I know Tiffany Dad works a lot, but one of the strips said a month has gone by, isn’t he ever home

How about searching for a window repair company?

Search for a brain???? Ididnt think any of you had one!!!!

Most plausible of any guess. Oh golf ball!!

I agree with Tiff. It would be a fruitless search, but they could try.

I’m not sure what G&K are planning to say happened, I just hope the pay off is worth the wait. The most plausible ideas have been suggested and they don’t seem likely anymore since they were written off by the girls. If it’s a baseball or something, that would be incredibly lame. Since it’s close to Christmas maybe someone made a “It’s A Wonderful Life” style window-breaking wish like George and Mary.

If the break in the window frame wasn’t inward I’d have guessed Ann Eiffel had a spoiled gold-digger tantrum and threw something out the window. I guess she could have still thrown something AT the second story window, if so I’d be impressed by her aim. I guess the Ann thing cause when something bad happens it’s almost always Ann.

does all this mean the window has been left unrepaired for the last month or whatever of her recuperation at the boy’s house ?

I’m guessing that tomorrow the window repairman may show up and state some observations and facts from his (her) perspective, like…. uhh… these metal bars couldn’t possibly be bent and snapped without….. x,y,z.

Where does Tiffany get off acting so superior? She can’t get a passing grade without cheating and she opened a warehouse business in her fathers garage. Definitely not the sharpest tool in the box.

Can’t blame her. I can’t. Others may.

Tomorrow we’ll see the kids from the sandlot across the street mustering up the courage to ask for their ball back now that someone’s there.

Had to be something pretty heavy duty to break 2 of the plastic strips in the window. And even bigger to break 2 metal straps depending on how they were constructed.

Don’t know if this has been brought up but according to the strip that ran Dec 1st, Tiffany stayed with the boys for a month before heading home and the window hasn’t been fix in all that time. I find that pretty strange and surely tiff had to go back home a few times during her stay with the boys, just for her personal items.

I want to see some romance for Lu. She hasn’t really dated anyone since Quill. Jack doesn’t count. She is in college. Now is her time to live and enjoy her life.

No, even a very large, fast-flying bird wouldn’t hit hard enough to break the window AND massively bend those bars inward. The only logical explanation is Superman. Yeah, that’s it. He was flying drunk.

That would have to be some heavily armored bird if it bent inward what look to be metal bars in the window…wood panes would have just snapped off.

Let’s get rid of Steph and her self centered arrogance, not to mention air head, Bets and her…. ditto, and even Dez and her New Age attitude. These are rotten characters. The strip called Luann, not Luann’s acquaintances.

And so it goes…on…on…and on!

For some reason I thought two bars were bent. A large bird, like a condor came to mind, but there’s no evidence of injury or feathers. I’m liking Tiffany’s comebacks. Funny! And true! ;-D

Ms. Marple’s they ain’t.

Ms.Horner would have solved this thing in t wo minutes.

Find the answer before everybody starts blaming Shannon j ust for the heck of it.

Good suggestion Tiff.

At the very least this is all reinforcing the need for Tiff to tell Daddy Tom that all these things have occurred so he can determine for himself that nothing is missing or disturbed. It’s plausible that Tiff may not be privy to everything her father has in the manse, esp biz related, so she may not be correct re “nothing is missing”.

Loved what Tiffany said!

It does seem Tiffany using her brain here.

Yowza! Tiffany is the smart one of this group? Lord, how she has evolved!

The misdirection all this week is that how the window was broken doesn’t matter. This has been all about Tiffany’s fears of being alone in the manse. As more and more ridiculous ideas are being proposed she is coming to realize that her fears are unfounded. That’s why she quipped about lack of intelligence in the hallway. She has realized that none of it matters and she can get on with her life.

Between forgiving Stef for being a b*tch and an as$ and losing her fear of the manse, Tiffany no longer has any potential for “drama” so I don;t know what Karen is going to do next. She’s written all the characters into the ground.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Leave “Bwad”, Toni and Shannon OUT, especially with the holidays coming!!!!!! They are the worst, dullest characters in this strip!!!!!!!!!

Amen, Tiffany! But I wouldn’t be too sanguine about your chances of success in that quest….

Judging from the bent metal in addition to the shattered glass, I’d suggest looking downstairs for the bowling ball that broke through, bounced around, and then rolled downstairs.

Find a brain! HAHAHA.
