Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for January 29, 2023

Was there a steaming t.urd in the toilet? Whatever is going on… NASTY!

Trying to figure out what Gunther was trying to do when cleaning. Like… was he cleaning without flushing? Is that how he’s always done it?

Just lower the expectations of a perfectionist?

Bachelor cleaning, drop a bunch of denture tablets in the bowl, let it sit for several hours and then flush.

So Les to cut corners.

Leslie Knox, the professional dishwasher, can hangout with Punk?

Where is Tiffany Farrell?

Well if the bathroom is filthy it’s pretty clear that Tiff is back in the manse.

You are supposed to flush the toilet before you swish and swipe it, Gunther. Didn’t Knute teach you that?

Yeah, I can imagine that the commode in the gulag is probably pretty toxic if the lads did not clean it for a week. I remember how nasty the toilets at my freshman dorm at FSU got over the weekend as the cleaning staff only cleaned them Monday to Friday. By Sunday night/Monday morning the whole bathroom would be a environmental hazard with vomit, pizza boxes, beer cans and bottles, an occasional coed passed out in a stall, etc. Definitely was glad to move to the university apartments the next year. Too bad they do not have Knute as a roomie, the guy would probably shine the chrome on the handle of the toilet and the faucet of the sink!

One of them will probably end up with being given a “swirly” before this is all over. Well, since this is a Sunday strip, it is over. My bad…

Punk is a lot bigger than the last time we saw him. Are we going to see a bit of “Gasoline Alley”-style aging of the characters here? Will Shannon be going through puberty at some point?

Typical lazy Les. If I did that, my wife would skin me alive.

Hey Punk is aging fast for Luannverse time. I’m saying she fits the Gulag well.

Note how the cat follows him into the bathroom. :)

“Smarter not harder.” That’s a phrase I learned when I was working at a bakery.

Scrubbing bubbles …. ’nuff said. :-/

Had the same problem in 1963. Joined the Marines and ended up in combat. Some things never change.

Evidently Les has a higher tolerance for the dirty toilet bowl.

You guys with your money & stuff…. Isn’t anyone concerned that they didn’t show Nancy & her incredible hotness?

I’m proud of Les and Gunther for having a dedicated time to clean together!

My advice to Everyone : Never live with someone who has a great difference in standards of cleanliness than yours. You will do most of the cleaning if you are the neater one, or have the other person always mad at you if you are the slob.

Gunther thinks the toilet is dirty. Les thinks it is fine the way it is. They have vastly different standards of cleanliness.

I don’t think that’s that means Les. I’ve thought since the pandemic started, we’ve all needed to work smarter not harder.

Ah, typical Les, who washes dishes all day? Cute how Punk or his tail appears with Les in each panel. ;-)

I guess you need to go the bathroom 101.

And this is why that toilet is more and more disgusting. But I’m happy to see Les with Punk on his lap.

My co-worker says “work smarter not harder” all the time.

Shouldn’t the toilet brush be brush down in the bucket? Brush up you have to pick it up by the brush.

Did Les actually do anything with the toilet, besides flush it?

I’m a big fan of working smarter, I just haven’t mastered it yet.

So what did Les do? Flush?

Time for the “Laundry rants”.

It’s nice to see that Les and Punk are still an item. Sometimes borderline sociopaths like Les can actually form bonds with an animal.

Did you hear that now UK youths refuse to work because the government will pay them not to?

“Work smarter, not harder.” I learned that from the Dilbert boss once upon a time.

Ahhh, one of those … funny how often people separate into two groups: People who whine about how “unfair” things are, and those who just make their own success. No, it’s not easy, but if you have real work ethic it can be done.[ braces for the inevitable rant/insult mix from the ‘takers’ crowd ]

Here’s a bathroom tip. After each use, first flush, then squirt in a little bit of cleaner and take the brush and swish it around. The commode should stay nice and fresh in between deep cleanings. Once a week give it a more thorough cleaning. No muss no fuss!

What happen to lady cop that took the report on Tiff break in.

The classic advice is to volunteer your time, which will provide you with references about your work performance. Or just take a lower paying job to pay bills while you search for a better job. Employers look for experience, but work history is also major.

I love that a little gray cat is following that guy everywhere. Just like my big gray cat.

Next week Bets and Gunther discover that they might be expecting a baby and have to put away the Star Trek costumes and deal with the harsh realities of life. It happens.

“Work” is ab honorable word which Leslie Knox ought not abuse, nor even use. A flush is not a cleaning!

WTH! Tiffany is still living at the Gulag??

We did get a new arc.. that apparently started yesterday? Very odd! Tiff’s arm is completely healed. They need to ask her leave. Les deserves to have his room back.

I wonder what Bets will say about Tiff still living there.

.

Does it look, to anyone else, like Tiffany has slimmed down a bit?

A woman once said (but can’t remember who): “If I can find a man that doesn’t think a toilet is a self cleaning device – I’ll marry him”

He should have closed the lid before the flush if he’s working smarter.
