Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for September 20, 2014

Transcript:
Toni: "What's Luann into these days? Movies? Music? Outdoorsy stuff?"
Brad: "I have no idea"
Shannon: "You should make a play date! That's what I do with my friends!"
Well, this is just a quick “hi and bye” as I have to get ready to visit my son who lives in an adjacent state. He just “purchased” (rent-to-own) his first house and we are anxious to see it! Bought a few home-warming gifts for him and his family, dishtowels, Beanie Babies, that sort of thing. It is going to be HOT AGAIN, so I am planning to wear my summer stuff (still, yet, and OMG not always ! ;P). So, ’nite all until the wee hours of this coming Monday! ;)-——————————————————————————“I cried all the way to the bank.” (Walziu Valentino “Lee” Liberace, 1920 – ?) From the book, Liberace: An Autobiography , ch 2 (After hostile criticism).
unicorn on the cob? that sounds interesting, and no need of the corn holders, and there are actually unicorn on the cob tshirts whe one does google search
Lol, Or that it’s cruel or irresponsible to encourage puns in T-Shirt form about producing hybrids of mythical creatures and grain products… without butter…..
Now that Brad and Luann have grown beyond constantly picking on each other, and actually appreciate each other a bit, they might really enjoy this chance to spend some time together. And who say’s he’s “cheapening out”? Since he’s asking her, he’ll probably spring for the lunch or dinner. And when they do get together, I imagine Luann use the opportunity to try to get Brad moving on planning the wedding!
Shannon has really bonded with her new family unit. She is no longer being fobbed off onto a reluctant parent. She has been less scowly and more smiley of late. And I agree that Luann will love her gift.
Actually, a ‘date’ with her brother isnt ‘cheaping out’. We have to remember that even though they are brother and sister, Brad and Luann have essentially moved into different orbits in their lives and probably dont get to talk much these days. A day to rebond as siblings is a terrific idea for those two
He should have taken advice from Toni, not Shannon, on what an 18 year old girl would like. I doubt there is anything Brad and Luann would enjoy doing together all day. Luann likes hanging out with her friends talking about girl stuff.
Shannon’s “play date” suggestion triggered Brad’s wise gift—Luann can have almost any kind of day she wants (except no nail salons) with her big brother! He might find it to be shockingly expensive if Luann chooses something high-end!
Nice to see everyone’s maturing a bit – even the little ‘brat’ is growing up – would be nice to see the DeGroot siblings all dressed up, sharing adult conversation at some nice dining establishment
“Spending time with his sister shouldn’t be a present. It should be something Brad wants to do without any special reason. "*RB2: Too true. So do you? (Actually, I would NOT want a day alone with my brother!)
Oh, don’t worry, I didn’t think you meant me in particular, I actually was thinkin’ the same way as you had responded to that one. Was just thinking that you thought I was going the “serious route” on it, but you know I can’t resist a chance for another pun and it had come to me after I had read the comment, LOL!

“That’s pretty corny…”^It’s the first one he picked up. It just popped out at him….
JayBluE over 10 years ago
Reminds me of the shirts at “Five Below”……

But is it artisanal corn on the cob?
seismic-2 Premium Member over 10 years ago
It could be worse. He could have given her a certificate for two days with Brad,

I knew the tiny terror would hit it out of the park. I just had a feeling.

Brad has grown up so much, and yet not at all.

jemgirl81 over 10 years ago
I think that’s a great gift. Especially since Luann’s been kind of lonely these days.
peskykid421 over 10 years ago
Does the fine print say ‘No Nail Salons’? My screen resolution/eyeballs can’t tell.
Observer fo Irony over 10 years ago
Luann’s response would be ‘Who? Must be a stalker.’

Oh Brother.
Brado’s taking Advice from a Toddler.
Hey Shannon? Attach Wires to Unca Brad’s Arms, Legs, Back, and a Heavy Duty One to His Head and FINISH Your “Puppet.”

I think TJ will show Brad up by getting her something crazy and costly.

Brad cheaps out, and his attention to detail shows why he’s the head of his department’s investigative unit.

Must bring that T-shirt to Dana Simpson’s attention
thefloyd over 10 years ago
Cool! It’s been quite a while since we have had a Luann & Brad only series.

Angelalex242 over 10 years ago
At least he was wise enough to clarify ‘no nail salons.’ Not every dude thinks of that.

I want that shirt!!
JayBluE over 10 years ago
You could also have explained that your pun was to the point and spot on accurate, since it had a “kernel” of truth to it…
JayBluE over 10 years ago
No, I didn’t mean it that way… I was just trying to throw out another horrible pun….
JayBluE over 10 years ago

reedkomicks Premium Member over 10 years ago
I personally would love this from my brother, who is awesome.

“LOL, I did get the point, I just thought I’d throw a horrible pun out there”*BS – Horrible pun? Mine was more horribler! (point, point, get it?)
