Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for April 26, 2023

Oooohh… Luann for the win! Unprovoked (but deserved) snark at Bernice. lol

I wonder if Luann will tell her that Piro will be reading his essay, at the Spring Fair, as well.

At least we may finally see Nil’s painting.. and find out if it’s any good.

.

Sounds like the Spring Fair will be a major arc. I wonder who else will be there?

Oh, Luann, be supportive.

Bernice deserves a little snark; she has handed out far more than anyone else.

I really am starting to see more and more why so many readers dislike Bernice so much – she really does come across as being a conceited and vapid narcissist at times.

Oo, burn! Luann for the win! I guess Bernice has gotten over her embarrassment as staring at Jack’s junk. I’m sure she had had many a warm night recollecting that incident! But no mention of Piro. What’s up with that?

stop moaning, Lisa!

Oh wow! Luann withholding the news from Bernice?

The Spring Fair should have. Jack,Walt, Luann, Bernice and Nil

I totally get how Luann’s comment could be taken as not snarky. I mean, given the choice between a berobed Bernice and a disrobed Jack, I know where my eyes would go first! But, as they say, it’s all in the delivery. And Luann’s delivery is lacking any hint that there might be some humor behind that line. Why are these two still friends?

At least Puddles looks excited for Luann.

Once again, it’s all about Bernice!!

At least Puddles is actually happy for Luann (or is it time for his romp in the dog run?).

So much for ‘quick and clever’.

That reminded Burn to put her hands on her chest to see if there was anything there

Puddles is happy and excited to see Luann. That works for me. The comic goes down hill after that.

I think Luann’s point is that Bernice wasn’t naked, and people will be looking beside her, not at her, in the painting.

Well.

Bernice, Luann, Piro, and Nil (And sometimes Jack) will be at the SAME Spring Fair.

This will be like watching an impending head-on collision, while helplessly honking your horn in a desperate attempt to try to prevent it.

G & K continue to pick on Luann – lines she might have said when she was 13.

OHHHH so Luann, Piro Bernice’s almost ex she just sorta abandoned instead of ever actually trying to find and may still be into, and Nil who just forced her into a very uncomfortable situation and ignored her are all gonna be in the same community college art fair. Just throw the community college idiots in there and watch it flambe. Also maybe use this to bring back knute and krystal hrmm? Please?

The plot thickens, almost every past arc seems set to collide in the Spring Fair. YEEEEEEESS!!! Can’t wait!! Bernice will see Piro again and at the same time she will be with Nil and Jack, this could destroy her emotionally and lead her to make some massive disaster. Luann will see Jack again after too long, she will talk about Arte with Nil and she will be able to introduce them to Piro (I hope for some reaction from Jack to see her interested in someone). It could also be where the big fight between Luann and Bernice could finally begin! I wonder if Gunther will be involved in the Fair for show an university’s engineering project or he’ll just come because Bets or Tiffany have invited him to the tea stall. Will Stef being there with the trophy she (probably) won at that competition? So many questions and possibilities, i love it!

So I guess we aren’t going to see the fallout from Tiffany and Bets’ fight on Saturday?

Next art project, Adam and Eve in the garden

Luann can be insufferable at times. Like… NOW!

“ARE You goin’ to the New Pitts Spring Fair?”

“Bernice, Nil, Piro, Lu-Ann and Tiff!”

“And Bets and Gunth, and Jack may be there!”

“And please, NO Stef, cuz she’s NO friend of Mine!” – Simon and Garfunkel

I think the signifying is petty to worry about, I still tease my best friend, and we’ve been friends since 1953! This a setup for the overlapping arc of Bern, Jack and Nil, and Luann and Walt (Piro). I was blown out the water making the mistake (oh, which I know well) trying to predict what comes next last week, but it’s interesting Bern is paired with Nil and Jack, Lu with Piro. How might THAT turn out?

An attempt at one-upmanship by Bernice.

I’m entering my paintings in an art festival as well.

GnK are playing the Luann/Piro relationship very carefully. Too cool? Too cautious?

Apparently the writing theme and the art theme are superimposed ion their minds. I expect we’ll see this back and forth for the remainder of this episode. Then back to Gun and Bets or something to do with Dez’ tea blend.

Will we EVER SEE that painting?? I suspect that, if we do, we will be totally surprised; one way or the other.

Just want to say everybody has some great suggestions. Just hope a bunch of them come true.

Yes, the fair features “What a shock!” and a painting featuring Jack’s willie. My God! LOL!!!

Wait until Bernice finds out Nil painted Jack with clothes, and her without…

Ok -now I want to add Nil & Jack to my posted comment on Monday…….Spring Fair at Mooney University! Luann Piro Dez Tiffany Kip Bets Bernice Nil & Jack -all in the same story line -at the same time? Wow this will be fun.

tomorrow: the Piro news drops. Bern becomes hyper.

Here I was hoping that the author of the romance novel would be at the event, but that’s looking unlikely. I hope Bernice gets some amusing humble pie served to her, given her high falutin attitude whenever she acts like she’s Nil’s merry muse.

Notice her what?

Considering Bernice was seated next to a naked Jack in Nils painting, Luann has a good point.

I doubt that we’ll see much of the Spring Fair. When they made a trip to NYC we didn’t see much of that.

Way to burn ol’ Bernie, Luann!

Oh goody, Bernice is here. Luann’s arcs can’t go more than one day without bringing in that insufferable nutjob.

Did we ever find out what was in that note that piro wrote to Bern and had Luann deliver?

My beloved Bernice is bound to be a big hit.

Luann didn’t mention that Piro/Walt would be there reading his essay.

OMG! Can the Luanniverse survive this impending clash of disparate story-arcs?

Stay tooned! :-/

I suppose it depends on the gender. Females are going to notice Jack, but the males are going to notice Bernice. Just sayin.

The “Spring Fair” has the potential to be a very interesting arc….presuming Greg does show a variety of aspects of it.

1. I hope we get to see some sort of fun/humorous painting (with meaning) by Nil. For me, this is my most looked forward to aspect of the Fair, as I like Nil as a character quite a bit. I very much like the Nil/Bernice dynamic. I suspect that Nil’s “abstract” vision in his painting will shine through and there will not be any need to pixelate Jack nor any aspect of the painting.

2. In the story reading, which also should be very good… I am a bit worried that Piro will “bag-out” at the last minute and not read his story… as I suspect it is perhaps still too uncomfortable for him…. be it about his family history, or Bernice, or whatever.

3. Also in the story reading, I anticipate if Luann reads her work that Greg may somehow choose that Luann does not get any laughter for her story, or that laughter that her story invokes may be at parts that Luann had not intended to be funny. This seems how Greg has portrayed her of late.

4. I also feel that if Piro DOES read his story, there will be something about his “fondness” for Bernice…. that may lead Luann to be jealous, and have Bernice flummoxed and confused about Nil (which would make me sad).

5. Maybe (haha) Tara will be selected by her archery instructor to do an archery display/demonstration?!?

6. Maybe (haha) Tiff, Dez, and Steph’s boyfriend will have a “Tiffany’s Tea” stand at the Spring Fair…. and the resultant hoopla will rival a 60’s era love in or perhaps “Woodstock”?!?!

The Spring Fair—everybody will get stoned on Dez’s tea and fall asleep in the flower beds

OFF-SITE REACTION OF THE DAY:

user Calvin’s Cardboard Box, April 26th, 2023 at 7:20 am

“This strip and its assigned attributes. Luann has cycled through, among other careers, being an amazing actress, a genius at stage design, an artistic savant, an inspired (and inspiring!) teacher, and now a hilarious comedy writer.

None of these actually pan out, of course, It’s like that dream where you are supposed to deliver a speech or make some dramatic reveal at the end, but when the time comes you are half awake and the inspirational speech doesn’t write itself and you just have to wake up and move on.

The Evansi will run as far as they can with this, so long as they never have to let us hear part of her speech, or actually reveal Piro’s ‘intense’ back story, and then drop the whole thing as if it never happened."

Bernice congratulated Luann on her news. Luann should have reciprocated kindly.

Nice comeback, Luann!

It makes me sad when Luann is mean to Bernice.

Spring Byington and the Fairly Odd Parents will be headlining the event.

Oh, I’d guess they will, Luann. Now don’t be catty with your pal Bernie….

I’ll bring my Crayolas

Well, a what a wham of a snark. Well, she learned from the queen of snark.

Nice to see for once! (I’m referring to Luann’s comeback to Bernice :D )
