Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for October 02, 2015

Dang! Now I can’t sleep!

This strip’s alternative Big Bang Theory-esque title: “The Hubba-Hubba Telescope Delay.”

Maybe she should take the initiative and ask him. Maybe after reading a particularly steamy scene in a romance novel.

The “spontaneity” of Janis leaves me breathless.

Watch that left hand, Arlo.

Sometimes, being allowed to say “No” is greater love. They are both blessed.

Ask me again sometime?You’ll get the same answer, but it’s nice to be asked.

The eye roll says that insanity is repeatedly doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome.

There’s none of this smut on Rose is Rose! (Tee-hee! Giggling )

At least she’s open for invitation!

My wife andI had this exact conservation many times. She always started it again at 3:00 AM and I never said, “No.”

Arlo looks just as tired as Janis says she is, and just as ready for a good night’s sleep. But he doesn’t want to hurt her feelings by telling her that he wasn’t even asking… at least not this time.

And Janis… I’m not sure about her in the last panel. Maybe she is just trying to reassure him, but I’m reminded of this exchange from the movie “Charade” – Audrey: Don’t you dare be civil with me, after leading me on like this. Cary: How did I lead you on? Audrey: Oh, all that marvelous rejection. You knew I couldn’t resist it.

The Question was asked during the Kiss. Arlo has very Expressive Lips..

So, they don’t ever hold or touch each other when they are just going to sleep?
