Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for November 06, 2016

I would have gone in her room and dumped it on her bed. There are already some bowls on there. She’d probably never notice it.

Mother’s got you there, Daughter.

Mrs. DeGroot outsmarted herself there. She’s going to have a fine time washing gravy out of the tableloth.

Messiness messes with my brain. It really really bothers me. My kids say it’s an ocd, but I figure if one is going to have an ocd it might as well be cleanliness, that way everything is always nice and clean.

I care more about how my food tastes… I can look at plenty of other things, while eating, anyway!

Luann must be growing pretty fast there, Puddles looks tiny now!

Frank should consider growing a Trump comb-over!

hey, it all ends up in the same place, looking the same way.

I think he’d be a much better match for Bern, than creepy old star head!

I don’t find him so much creepy as he is merely mysterious<<<Mysterious always creeps me out!

It seems Nancy is teaching Luann the value of “Keeping up appearances”….

- -

Or maybe more like “Putting them down”….

- -

And, too, it may be the representation of the timeless adage: “You are what you eat”….

Nancy liking what Luann said. Well if she likes it in her personal space, why not for meals too?

‘Out of the mouths of Babs’?

Nice strategy there, and quite the lesson.

This sounds suspiciously like a now well-known comment: “What difference does it make?”

sure wish mom nagged me about my room. but that’s not happening any more. Jeanne’s heart wore out 6 years ago this week. still miss her, bunches. # stuff happens

The bouncing bird finally made its way to Luann.

One size fits all cartoon, whether she is 9 or 19.

That’s Funny. She Sure “cleaned up Her room” that time Pretty Boy came over…..,

As a teenager in the early 60’s, my room was filled with electronic equipment, some of which were not in cabinets. My mother and my sister refused to go in there, which was fine with me. (this was back in the age of tubes which needed high voltages to operate)

Often Greg will provide some current pop culture reference in one of the posters on the wall, but not this time. hmmm.

Makes you wonder how her own future home will be.

I in Luann’s camp. It really doesn’t matter.

Gotta try that on my boys.

Have to say that I appreciate Greg staying away from politics and the election frenzy, some others have ventured there and its like a mine field.

Like most, Frank would look horrid w a comb-over.

Admittedly, my room was always a mess when I was a kid. But by the time I was LuAnn’s age, the neatness gene finally kicked in and I kept my room (and homes) neat and clean.

Mom 42: Luann 16

Wouldn’t happen in my house…my mom was a cleaning nut and I took after her….my sister and brother not so much….so since was like the “devil” with them both. Of course, I just smirked which did not endear me to them…but at that age I didn’t care LOL

Luann is a legal adult (18) and in college. Why do we still have this recurring theme with her messy room? Moreover, why isn’t Luann pitching in and cooking dinner on occasion?

How can you live like that?!

My scattered stuff and I have a mutual understanding.

Eat your mixed veggies and stop being such a picky eater: you’re no Petey Ottterloop!

I love that the sauce and gravy on Luann’s plate are just spilling over onto the table. It makes me think that Nancy just slammed the plate down in front of Luann.

Spoiler: they are trading off who is not understanding limits and intrusiveness

Wow! That looks cool, Brd. Our new gadget is a toy fir Steve, a Nomiku suisvide. I am half asleep since it is about 1a here so am certain i misspelled that and more.

Anybody else notice that Nil seems to be a male version of Bern. Not just looks and style of dress, but attitude as well.
