    It occurs to me that, to the chagrin of the Bets-haters, once Gunther’s friends get done debunking the nasty gossip, the Bets-Gun reunion just might get an even bigger outpouring of fan support than Bets was originally imagining.

    So is this the time when Stef sneaks out of the party before everyone notices she has vanished or will she oblivious to what she has initiated? Of course if she sneaks out, there is the possibility of running into Bets if Bets is still outside in Ruby.

    I’m confused. Why does Bets not want Gunther to look at the pic? What is she thinking when she sent the message? Wonder if she doesn’t want him to see the messages posted by her fans? That they reveal the real Bets and that he’d realize the truth and agree with them? Yep, Les. Too late.

    Judging by Bets comment to Gunther, she knows Gunther is not cheating and is trying to keep him from flipping out. However, telling someone not to look at something is almost like telling them to take a peek! I guess it did not matter as Luann showed Gun the pic and if she did not Les would have enlightened the G-Man or someone else would have. One observation: Gun’s friends have his back; Tiff, Dez, Luann and even Les most certainly are concerned for Gunnie. Now where is Stef?

    Aw man. More reacting to to this rather than actually doing anything in reaction to it. Funny how this is all happening at the party where Stef is. What’s she doing while everybody else is distressed? Playing dumb or cackling diabolically?

    I do have to say I really like how Luann looks so comically surprised in panel 2. She looks kinda crazy and her eyebrows are missing. Also… what over the top reactions to a photo of two people standing next to each other. Imagine if she was holding his hand, they’d all die of scandal!

    As I said yesterday, I hope that Bets will have faith in Gunther, get back to him to find out what is going on, and simply quit being a social media influencer due to her mean and disloyal “fans”.

    …And then all of the girls should gang up on Stef to throw her upside-down in a trash bin.

    So, Bets thinks Gunther won’t look when she tells him not to? She obviously told him so he would look. Panel three is two women trying to protect Gunther from the post, and Les making sure he sees it, revealing their personalities. What is Gunther’s reaction? Angry? Confused? he has a tight grip on Luann’s arm as he looks at it. Will he figure out that she is outside and go out looking for her? Or will she overcome her chagrin and come inside? I guess we’ll find out Saturday.

    So… even though Bets isn’t sure what’s going on in that party – or whether Gun has moved on to another girl – her second reaction is to try to prevent Gunther from seeing the hurtful comments. Not so self – absorbed after all, eh?

    Today’s Strip reminds Me of a classic Saturday Nite Live skit, where Buckwheat got shot.

    An interviewer asked one of the Little Rascals for an opinion.

    Her response was: “Ooooo, I’m HURT, and Confused, and I don’t know what to say! NO COMMENT!!”

    Don’t ask Me why this Strip reminded Me of that. Perhaps because it’s early and I haven’t had My COFFEE yet.

    Or maybe I just miss the good old days when “folks” still had dial phones.

    (SIGH)

    Okay, Now.

    Bets drives off and crashes?

    Or Bets comes in brandishing a Samurai sword, seeking Justice and heads?

    Either way, this story goes into next week, which “I” personally don’t have a “problem” with.

    Other “folks?” Start Grinding your teeth! ;-)

    Bets tries to prevent Gunther from seeing their page taken over by trolls. This shows how important he is to her. Unfortunately, it wasn’t possible. Les deleted Gunther’s account, so he goes to show him what’s going on and Luann wanted to see and now she seems really, REALLY sorry. I wonder if this is serious enough to put an end to Bets’ influencer career. Now I hope all the people in today’s strip go and ask Stef for an explanation. It’s about time she paid the consequences of her actions. Also, Bets has to go inside and say hi to Gunther.

    Why is everyone so shocked? Luann knows Stef took a photo of them, and she did not have time to read the comments yet. All the guests know L and G are at the party together and the comments posted on the photo are typical of what you’d see anywhere on the internet. And if you tell someone to NOT look at something, the first thing they will do is look.

    Very interesting the way all participants are confronted with the issue with Gun(ther, I have to do parenthesis again as he’s drawn so passive in matters of passion) and Bets. I’m a huge supporter of Bets and Gunther as a couple with a future, because I think she is the woman who would help him meet his prodigious potential, who really loves him. And he her. This relationship is on the chopping block in a 21st Century way, Bets being outside in her van, seeing the negative comments and Gun(ther) at the party (yes Big Friendly Giant, its been too many years since I read the last children’s book), while at the party all the reactions of the main characters (interestingly, Steph is not in the last few panels—start the trouble, then vanish—so tonight ought to be the confrontation, or not. Hopefully, they get back together, in person, and Bets fascination with social media,cools. Or not.

    Jeez Gunther. Do you always do as you’re told? But why was Bets texting him instead of walking through the front door and showing him what was happening? That is really strange. She could be putting on her costume (maybe it’s a book). Maybe she’s calculating how many likes this whole scenario can generate, or maybe she is systematically destroying Steffanie on line? That would be good.

    Luann appears to be alarmed by what she looks like in her costume, but so far, Les is proving to be the sharpest knife in the drawer, compared to these other characters. Les and Tiffany would be a great match but I’m afraid she’s a little bit too ditzy for him

    I don’t see the big deal in any of this. Stef posted a picture of 2 people at a party, that she took with their knowledge. She posted the photo on her friend’s blog and added her speculation. This is how Stef always behaves so no one should be surprised by it. The comments by Bets followers are the same as you’d see on any blog or social media site. Bets and Gunther need to actually communicate with each other if they think they are still in a relationship.

    I always hated the Stef and Tiffany types from my high school and early college days. They just could not go through life without creating drama. It’s time for Stef to get slammed good and dumped ,Tiffany to also get some choice words in her face and for Gunther to grow a pair and assert himself .

    I don’t think that Bets is the right girl for him. In fact I think he needs to take a break from the whole dating scene and get his own life together. Move out ,get away from Leslie and get away from his creepy annoying mother – get a machete and cut the apron strings.

    I still love Leslie’s character development. He went from full-on bully antagonist nightmare to anti-hero wingman to Gunther trying his best to look out for his family-in-law. I think we can safely say this is the start of Gun and Bets’s break-up. I WANT to hope that Bets was actually heartbroken her fans showed no faith in her relationship with Gunther, but knowing she has crippling insecurity I think the reality is she DOES think Gunther cheated on her. I really hope I’m wrong.

    All this drama could have been avoided if Gunther has told Bets he was going to the party with Luann. And if Bets had told Gunther she was returning home that day. Not much of a couple if they can’t simply talk to each other.
