    Bernice, Piro and the kiss. Mystery still pending. Something’s got to shake out to clarify that.

    I think that the point of all the extended verbalization from Bernice is not necessarily that Bernice is having more drama in her life than Luann (because she always had her share of drama; she just never acknowledged it). The point is that, of all the data she is dumping, the very LAST point she made is that Piro kissed her. Does that mean it is the least important point to her, or what? Any guesses?

    And now a game of mad-libs, Bernice style. We will fill in her ellipses. I wanted to go out with Piro, but I didn’t have Piro’s phone number so I hacked Tiff’s phone and by hacked I mean I didn’t actually get Piro’s number because she came back into her room too fast. So I decided to study for my big test, which as it turned out I failed. It wasn’t my fault because of all the stuff that happened but I am about to forget the best part because then, Piro was at the library! He looked so hot wearing his scarf and by “hot” I mean kind of sweaty because he wears a scarf all the time. He asked about notes for a class I took last semester and I said, “The notes are in my room and we could go there to get them.” He was hungry, so I got him a giant pile of snacks and he ate all of my Matzos. Who would have guessed anyone liked Matzos that much? Well I got to my notes from Lesson 17 and I realized it was past curfew!! Piro left my room and the next thing I know Tiffany is in my room talking about Piro and how he told the security guy he busted into a vending machine?! Piro confessed, so I confessed because we were in my room breaking curfew and eating Matzos. The security guy didn’t care I had broken curfew so I had to turn myself into the Director. She didn’t seem to care I broke curfew either. All she wanted to talk about was since they found the vending machine thief so they found the TV thief! Oh, and Piro kissed me but I felt nothing inside about it. Even little Bernice didn’t get excited. Then I had this dream last night about how Piro was strangling me with his scarf and I was getting really excited and kind of scared too and then I started kissing him a lot and his mouth tasted a lot like scarf which is better than the real Piro mouth tasted and I woke up and found I still had his scarf around my neck and a little bit down my throat too.

    Okay so sum everything up, Luann and Bernice are Semi-Deeply Involved with Two Guys They’re Absolutely NOT Sure About.So Business as Usual. Now that We’ve cleared THAT Up, Who is watching Mr. Knox??

    I guess this is Greg’s way of wrapping up the mystery, and now we may continue on as to why Bernice didn’t tingle when Piro kissed her. Maybe, deep down, she has the hots for Gunther, or simply isn’t ready for romance, or she may even question her sexuality. She’s at that age of great confusion.

    Ken, lets face it, European ancestors have Neanderthal in their genetic history, and that might be a good thing (l0l). As far as Bernice and Luann are going, it reminds me of what a deceased friend used to say about complicated situations that are actually simple, “that is about the size of it”. More developments to follow.

    It must have taken Bernice a long time to tell that convoluted story. She looks to be under 20 in panel 2, and about 50 in panel 3. Luann has been in stasis.

    If this were a TV show, and they said: “Last time, on Luann:”, it would probably take up 95% of the show’s content, and less time for the new episode. That is, if Bernice were writing it… Though it would’ve been perfect, if it were the movies “Titanic”, or “The Winds Of War”, or “The Blue And The Grey” or “Roots” being adapted for TV…

    And in the newspaper biz, what bernice did in that’s last panel would be called “burying the lede.” BUt as others pointed out, she’s detail-oriented and i guess she just HAD to tell it chronologically.

    I’m one of the few who think Jack is the real deal and Luann should go out with him more. It’s not as if they are likely to become engaged in the near future. But at least to me he seems like a decent guy. I love the 2nd frame, followed by the blow-out summary in the last. Got all that Lu?

    Hopefully, Bernice will be able to work through all this drama with Luann’s help. I hope that Luann ends up helping Bernice see that her lack of “sparks” with one brief kiss does not mean Bernice should give up on Piro.

    I also hope that Luann will go and hang out further with Jack. Just have fun. See where it goes as a potential relationship…. or not. But just try it out. That would be the same advice I would give for Bernice, too.

    Note: “and Piro kissed me”, not “and we kissed”. Piro was the kisser. Bern was just an observer, not an active participant.

    These two are acting like they’re on drugs – different drugs. Lu is near-catatonic while Bern is sounding manic.

    Bernice mastered the first half of this song:

    The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave To the dark and the endless skiesThe first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth move in my hand Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command my love

    Interesting aside….. the Spanish version of Luann (Luann en Espanol) apparently by accident left out of the bottom sound bubble, Bernice stating that Piro kissed her.

    The interesting ambiguities of difference between the two comics, including these occasional errors, the coloring differences, and of course nuances in difference between the two languages…. it would be interesting to see if there are enough of these differences that Luann is perceived differently by the Spanish-speaking audiences.

    Sounds like Bern isn’t gay but asexual. That’s the latest letter added to LGBTQIA. (Google it – it’s a thing.) That would be really cutting-edge of the Evanses to use the latest addition to gender identity.

    I am surprised. or at least I did not see it while scrolling through the comments, that no one mentioned what appears to be TJ’s shadow in the background. Some would say the other figure might be Mr. Gray, but if it is a dude, he seems to have a hat. Maybe it’s a woman, because the hat which fits the figures head does not appear to have a wide brim. Much apropos about nothing, but for those who doubted the Cafe would make it,I remind that this is Luannverse, and these characters have to have things to be doing in it. Maybe GE will let us drop back in the lives of some of the other characters such as Knute and Crystal, Delta or Rose, or even Tiffany and Gunther, although I prefer Rose and Gunther. I would like Delta to meet Pru, and indulge in the creation of a hunch I have about the future lawyer and senator and her personal preferences. HMMMM!! That is just me though, so pay no mind (lol).
