Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for March 08, 2015

Well, it seems that Picasso wasn’t so far off, in describing Luann…

How about, Luann, home economics?

“Time And Tidy Wait For No Luann”“Straighten Up And Fly! Yeah, Right…” (♫)“A Mess Take”“Hurricane And Able”“Law And Disorder”“Tempest Control”“The Ultimatum Warrior”“A Room With No View”or“Here’s Mud In Your Sty!”

Way to be supportive, Bern…

I don’t understand people who don’t know what they want to do. Why are stories always about the characters like that? What about characters who know what they want?

sounds snarkie, but it is actually good advice

She probably doesn’t know who Roseann Rosannadanna was…

When people plan, God laughs.When people don’t plan, Satan laughs.

So yeah.

What Luann and Nancy both learned today:

“You Caiin’t Always Get What’chu Wa-aunnnt…” (♫)

-Mick Jagger (who was inspired to pen this Rolling Stones hit when they ran out of Sweet Rolls and Tea at his favorite truck stop on tour…or probably not…)

I think Nancy’s comment came out backwards. She should have said, ‘If you want room service, pay rent!’

So does the messy bedroom saga get old.

LOL!!

Greg always finds new ways for Luann’s Mom to get her to clean her room…

I hope they focus on other characters tommorow perhaps TJ what happened to him after his truck “blew up” and he got insurance money?

Does anyone understand the quote from Greg on the right hand side of the ‘LuannAgainn’ comic?

again, Bernice hits the nail.

You better get on it Luann, otherwise your mom would make you pay rent.

Frig off Mr. Lehay…um Mom!

Life management? That’s what her parents are all about; they just want to be her managers, telling her how she should behave. It’s so retro! As if she has to play this role just so her parents can nag her like in the old days. She’s a messy person? Big deal, it’s her room!

Look at that tiny photo in the last panel. Mr. Gray wrote a book before he started going bald! Cool!

No, No, NO, Nancy-Bot.DON’T Make Luann Clean-Up Her Room Yet.Quietly Invite Pretty-Boy over for a “Surprise Visit” so He can SEE what Kind of “Home-Maker” He’d be getting if He EVER Married Her.

And BEFORE You “Gunther-Haters” get Started, HE-WOULDN’T-MIND, So THERE!!!

Have Luann join the National Guard. It will give her life skills.

Luann pretty much walks into and deserve those comments from Bernice.

Criminal Justice won’t do you any good Luann.It’s your parent’s house and they are free to kick you out any time they want.

A nice remembrance… seeing Luann and Bernice in Luann’s room sitting around talking.Sigh… won’t happen to many more times, if ever again…

Ok, I just have to come out and say it… I hate Bernice’s hair.

Go for the gold Bern! Your sarcasam is great!

I have always envied people who knew what they wanted to do—be a nurse, engineer, whatever. I’m 58 and I’m still trying to figure out what I want to be. I’m far more tired of the “clean up your room” scenario—just shut the door. If she wants to live that way, let her. Way too much time is spent on cleaning house.

Engineering?

I’ll “Third” that notion….

I’m wondering if this is part of the process of her moving out and either onto the Moony campus or an “off campus” apt. with either Bern or Quill…. It won’t solve the problem, though… she’ll need to learn how to keep things clean, lest her roomie also want to escape.

Ah, well.

True to life just like that other strip about a teenage son and his doings. Maybe a little exacerbated but based on teen behavior. this sort of thing accounts for more of the same spoiled attitudes in real life!

Is today’s strip laying the foundation for a “Luann starts thinking about moving out of the house” story arc? If so, who would be her roommate? Bernice doesn’t like Dez’s incense, but she already has her room and board paid for her, courtesy of her full scholarship (she is just about the only student in the USA to get such a deal, but never mind), and Tiffany has a whole suite to herself thanks to her Dad’s contributions to Moony, so neither Bern nor Tiff would move in with Luann. Maybe Crystal? Or even Toni? Or… Quill??? I just hope it’s someone who’s a more tolerable character in the strip than TJ. One horrible roommate is enough.

[ Bernice makes fun of Luann…again. Watching her be mean to Luann day after day after day gets old. ].She teases her — that is not always meanness..But I agree, some of this gets old, like the hundreds of “Cleaning the Room Sundays”

everything gets old like the path Billy takes to go from point A to point B than his mom asks “what took you so long?”

“Matilda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! go make a mess of your room, is too neat and organized!”

How many times has Nancy demanded that Luann clean her room since the strip started? A hundred times? A thousand times? A million times? If it’s the third choice, then she’s fighting a losing battle.

did you know……………………. that even counting the “nostalgia reprints”, we are between 10,500 and 10,900 strips TOTAL since March 17 1985?

When is Luann going to get over moping about her career and what courses to take? Any reasonable adult would give a real-world Luan some hints:: Are you interested in anything, like, say Theater Arts? How about that miraculous drawing ability you suddenly developed? What are you doing in that part-time job – any ideas there? Do any colleges in your area have any general prerequesites? Does Pitts CC have any career counseling? How about going for an AA in cosmetology, and be done with it?

It seems like no one in Luanniverse knows anything about going to college, least of all the authors.

No matter what her age, Luann is always going to be Mommy’s little girl—Mommy’s messy little girl.And Mommy will always be on her case, always!

usually the “first” posters without the “edit option” worry about putting as less letters as possible and post before someone else…..but Belinda did post again a few minutes later at least

Saw a poll that asked if people would choose the same career. 61% said no, so Luann isn’t in the minority.

So does Nancy yelling at Luann to clean her room and never getting a different result.

The Berger household will be crowded enough already, once Mr. Gray moves in.

SPOILER ALERT-Someone wipes that smile off TJ’s face, for a very refreshing change of pace…-(Deliberate poetry…)

Not to mention plenty of misunderstanding….

who of the 2(T and B) wanted the simpler wedding?

Why does Nancy waste her time and energy trying to get Luann to clean her room? She’s 18, give it up. I wouldn’t even go into her room anymore.
