I guess that’s how Jack stays in shape… He eats chocolate donuts?? lol

Bernice always seems to put her foot in her mouth.

.

So are we going to see Nil’s work of art??

A one-track mind

Oh, Bernice, you scatterbrain.

Ma’am, get your mind out of the gutter.

That was a fast painting. How did he do it without smearing the ink?

Can we have two days of Shannon to finish out the week? Kind of a palette cleanser.

Bernice’s mind is still in the gutter despite her “primness”.

Longing for more Bern?

Awkwaaaaaaard

They make an interesting threesome.

1, 2, 3 put foot in mouth….

let’s go out for hotdogs!

“No, I meant my you-know-what!”

Apparently I am a dimwit because I’m not getting the joke. Unless Bernice thought Jack was referring to his…. appendage. In that case it’s not all that funny. Ah well.

Bernice’s mind isn’t in the gutter, it’s still in the pages of the bodice-ripper that she was remembering fondly all throughout the posing session.

Haha, awkward indeed! In the pregnant pause that follows, you could probably hear the crumbs drop from Jack’s snack. Love Nil’s “expression” in the last panel. I wonder if Jack even processed what Bernice said…

Nobody’s mind is in the gutter in the arc, but a lot here are; Bern is a repressed soul to begin with, what she wants is intimacy, and she’s a virgin, who doesn’t know how to deal with her feelings. While it’s hilarious on some level about the nekkid art session, but the real point to me is does this get her anywhere out of that sad loop of despair. It’s a tragicomedy kids.

Nil show us the masterpiece of art work. My bar for expectations is set very low.

I want to see the painting too! I like the concept, Mona Lisa smiling at David. It’s perfect for Bernice. This could work!

Bernice could have said, “It was difficult. I want to change back into my clothes now.” But no. She is too busy thinking about Jack below the navel.

It depends on your metabolism. <y skinny friend would have one of every dessert at a church potluck and never gained a pound. I would eat a sliver of apple pie and gain five pounds.

Yes, Bernice. He’s talking about how Nil’s art is coming log, you dirty minded girl.

Maybe next time, Nil should use something from Andrew Wyeth’s collection as a foundation. “Bern’s World.”

I like the wey Bernice works her way from “pleasure” to “f” to “you’re welcome.” I have been in that situation before, when you had a really terrible time, but manners are forcing you to be polite and not speak your mind.

“Mr. DeMille, I’m ready for my close up…..of Jack.”

That’s probably what he really wants to know—from anyone who ever sees it. This was weird.

I assume that “How’s it hanging?” will take on a new, awkward dimension between Jack and Bernice.

Hahaha, How can Nil look that gobsmacked with one eye available.

For a moment, Bernice was about to admit she’s having fun, then she changed her mind. Admitting that something that made her whine and angry at first is actually something she start to enjoy it’s always a big problem for her. The same can be said on how she feels about looking at Jack. She had a moment of admission, followed by embarrassment because what she just said revealed too much about what she thinks and wants. Poor girl, totally usable to relax! But it’s nice to see Nil finally thanks his friends.

So, no glances after Bern got her glasses?

He needs the extra carbs to stay warm.

“Oh, _God.…..,” – Last words of Gandhi from the movie.

Knowing Nil, it’s probably very small and minimalist.

Has Bernice never been on the internet?

Nope, don’t want too

What a complete waste of time. Cyclops could have been painting a portrait of Ann ❤️ Eiffel. But, like most of the envious smitten kittens on here, he’s not worthy. We all ❤️ Ann ❤️ Eiffel and anxiously await her return.

Watch it be a painting of just Bernice’s eyes ogling Jack’s unseen package.

No big deal!

Love Nil’s look. Gonna love reading about Bernice telling LuAnn about this as LuAnn will pry/badger it out of her.

Haven’t seen any complaints about how boring the strip has become lately. What a difference a couple of months makes.

Why does Mona Lisa smile? She saw Jack’s member? Wait, is this arc just a long Monty Python reference? I remember something similar from “Quest for the Holy Grail”.

Now that Bernice has been successfully de-sensitized to nudity, all Nil has to do is get her to try it out herself. His next painting will be Mona and David dance…naked.

So, is Bernice sexually harassing Jack?

No comment.

Man, these two guys are clueless.

Was Jack supposed to be in the painting, so show what Mona was contemplating? If he was, there will be a lot of people calling it porn.

No you won’t. Can’t show nudity in family comics.

I think it’s time to ditch this story arc and move on to something else. I don’t think this story is that great.

Bernice always thinks that EVERYTHING is about HER…. so GD self-important she is..

Is this girl seriously getting flirty right after that extended display of prudishness? Talk about your mouth writing checks your @$$ can’t cash.

But, has he captured the smile? All else is irrelevant

“… but actually….smaller than I expected. Maybe he’s saving on paint.”

The more you try NOT to do double entendres’,the more you’ll end up saying them.

Knowing Jack it might be a granola or energy bar

If she can’t see why would she smile? Just the thought of it?

Aaahhhh,Nil just painted his own thumb anyway

Every day is now double entendre day.

Bernice will never be the same.

The “BENIS” you mean?

I’d like to point out that even without her glasses, she still should have been able to see something. Unless there was too little to see.

You almost stepped in that one Bernice.

Well, this is the beginning of the end for Nils.

Whoa. Lots of water under the bridge since yesterday. Somebody must’ve swapped out the writer or the character. Or skipped a few days and printed Saturday or sometime next week.

Or maybe all this was just GnK’s biggest misdirection ever.

A teacher and principal in a Florida school just got fired for “exposing” a 6th grade art history class to a picture of David.https://www.huffpost.com/entry/florida-principal-out-after-viewing-of-michelangelos-david-upsets-parents_n_641c621ee4b0fef15248d867

You almost loosened up a tad there, Bern! Keep it up, girl—you’ll get there someday!

if thats a donut my eyesight is failing…looks like yak blood suet sandwiched by seaweed to me..

Wanna get away?

Bernice almost let it slip.

Cute storyline

Lets say she was focused!

That’s the most endearing, human thing Bernice has ever said. I bet Jack finds it cute and is kind enough to roll with it. He’ll be written out soon.

Ha ha! Is Bernie tripping over her forked tongue there?

Hypocrite much, Bernie?
