Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for March 15, 2012
Transcript:
Luann: "So, what's the problem with you and Rosa?" Gunther: "It's me. When she gets close, I panic! I stammer and freeze up - it's AWFUL" Luann: "Still? You used to get nervous with me, but I thought you got over that" Gunther: "No! It's worse! I'm afraid of Rosa's going to give up and move on!" Luann: "You're a smart guy, Gunth. Figure out what causes this reaction" Gunther: "Oh, I know that. It's proximity to individuals with two X chromosomes"

“Chicken Little” just as Gunther’s voicing an exaggerated fear! Brilliant, Greg.

At least he knows his problem.

I would like to see Gunther grow a backbone, I know he’s the nerd in the comic strip but come on.

Just what I was thinking. Did Luann lose a chomosome somewhere?

Gunther, someone with 2 “x’s” touched you; looks like is only ones who “you REALLY like”, not all girls……………. at one time it was Luann, but not anymore, now is Rosa………. you were a lil nervous with Tiff, but never as much as it was with Lue, and what IS with Rosa
seyleigh over 12 years ago
Well, at least we know Luann isn’t completely self-centered.

Never forget in 6th grade putting off asking a girl who I had a huge crush on and talking about her all the time to my best friend about her and all her nice qualities. Guess what, He asked her to the dance and she accepted. Years later, in high school, while dancing with her at an after football dance I asked her if she remembered my asking her and she said that she would have accepted my date but she got tired of flirting with me to get me to ask. She brought the dance up whenever we talked with no response from me. Then my friend asked her and she just accepted it but she wanted to go with me. I never asked her out ever as she really wanted to go out with me even in high school. I did eventually marry my high school sweetheart but 8 years after graduating. We were married for 40+ years until she passed away. My only love of my life. Only woman except Mom & Sis who I told that I loved them. Guess I was really a one woman man. Poor Gunther! All Rosa can say is no. Keep asking, maybe Rosa will forget herself and say yes by mistake.

her body language shows “ask me already, take initiative”, she might get tired of having to take initiatives, IF Gunther asked right now, he has a guaranteed yes, there is no

It’s not just “individuals with two X chromosomes”; it’s the one such individual who is foremost in your mind and carnal desires, Gunther! If you can’t master this phobic response, you may never enjoy a successful romance!
JerryTheK over 12 years ago
They are comic’s. They are not hot.

So much like me at his age.And yes, I also wonder if Luann is taking it as an insult or compliment.

He might also be nervous about asking her,and get a YES. What should he do? What is it like to have a girlfriend? How would she react meeting his weird dependant (and possibly controlling) Mum? Seing his weird oldfashioned home?And his room that still looks like a 10 year old lived in it?Gunth is very human, and he’s not the only one out there who doesn’t have a clue what to do when really falling in love.
All of these poor people whose parents still believe ignorance is a contraceptive…. Read Doonesbury, people!

Maybe Gunther is like Raj on Big Bang Theory… but then again Kunal Nayyar is married to a former Miss India.

sick of it
Hugh Manatee over 12 years ago
Gunther’s mental problems are getting ridiculously old. At this point, I think I’d prefer to see Les kick Gunther’s a%%…
Mordock999 over 12 years ago
Gunther, here’s a pretty good “Litmus Test” to SEE if You’re with “Ms. Right” (or Mr. Right for you Gals):
Take a date, (Rosa, Luann, whoever) to see a movie, say like that “Hunger Games” thing next week. (For me it was the 1st Star Wars movie, NOW called Episode 4).
Okay now if at ANYTIME during the course of the movie your date touches you gently on the shoulder and LOUDLY asks if this movie is “based on ACTUAL Events” then Brother, You’re WITH the WRONG Friggin’ Person!
Again, Ya’ll don’t have to THANK me….,

I, too, married the nerd who finally asked if he could give me a ride home and that he would keep his hands on he steering wheel. We will celebrate our 50th in May.

raster44 – you sound exactly like my Dad – he was a one woman man – my Mom was sick for a long time and treated my Dad badly (she had a mental illness so she really didn’t know what she was doing most of the time) but my Dad stuck by her for better or for worse. Don’t make men like my Dad and you anymore!
Chuck373 over 12 years ago
Because he has this all figured out, it almost sounds as if he is hoping that Rosa will move on. His life was much easier and more predictable before she came into the picture. He reminds me of Raj in Big Bang, but he’s too young to start drinking.

" Chicken Little " ??
When did the school start using AlGore propaganda in the library ?Shooter918 over 12 years ago
Gunther, and all the real world guys that are shy….it doesn’t get any easier with age….trust me on this one.

I think Gunther should use his back pack on the gal!

Kranadon: I hate to think a hetro like me has better “gaydar” than you. I suspect your comments are a part of your closet. Get help, you may find it better outside.

She should do a sultry breath on his ear or neck and watch him crumble.
ChrisV over 12 years ago
I had the same reaction, Gunth, still do to an extent.
