Gunther is Cinderella and Leslie is the stepsisters: the latter taking advantage of the former.

Les- “Gunther?”

- The Police “Every Breath You Take.”

Leslie is about to get an education.

“Feed a man a fish, and he eats for a day.”

Well, on the positive side, at least they have separate bedrooms. At his mother’s house, Gunther shared a bedroom with Quill…

Les, lets see if and how much you have grown. I keep defending you cartoon character, now Gunther do your part to educate him. You are just as much of a beneficent Pittsville influence as any of the other characters. Plus you have to live with this dude. Or they can do karate.

Les seems to need some..enlightenment…

Just when you thought Les was maturing and changing his behavior as he didn’t even like his own mother, he’s starting to act like a jerk again.

@LUANN1212: Les seems to be regressing…

Leslie does not know what he is asking. All Gunther has to do is one load of laundry including a nice, bright, shiny, new, color-bleeding red item and Leslie will be doing his own laundry.

Perfection takes time. I wasn’t always this close to ideal and Leslie has even further to go.

I was beginning to think Les was going to live in the towel.

I couldn’t wait until I went to college and was free from my abusive family and I never went back home.

Les’s smirk looks like he plans to bully Gunther if Gunther doesn’t follow orders. Gunther can tell Les to put his clothes in the washer and point out which buttons to push. Then Gunther needs to get busy bringing in his own stuff. I guess when Les lived with Uncle Al, there was a housemaid.

The big confrontation is coming up. Gunther will come home to fix dinner for himself, and the sink will be full of dirty pots, pans and dishes.

Gunther should then turn around and walk out…..and go eat in a restaurant No, he probably can’t afford it but it would be worth it to not have to see Les’s face all the time.

Gunther is about ready to give Les a education in how to live own your own without mom.

Hey, Gunther, just use a push broom to move Les’ clothes out of your way when you need to wash your own. Get your own dishes and keep them in your room, so when Les doesn’t wash his dishes, it’s his problem.

Hey! Gunther, maybe TJ can make a room for you too.

Have Les watch you wash and dry your clothes. Monkey see, monkey do…

Hey Gunther, invite Tiffany over for a surprise visit with Les ….. ;-)

That will learn ya!

So far an uphill battle for Less to become More. He needs room service really bad!

Comics version of the Odd Couple. It’s been done, and will be hard to top

Why is there even a “bigger” bedroom? His uncle clearly have no clue on how to design a house.

Gunther try and get Less close to the door,then give him a push while grabbing his towel

I read the funnies for fun and pleasure and not to get irritated. I think this arc is one to be skipped.

Why build two different sized bedrooms?

So, what’s the bathroom situation? Surely Les has already made that part of his domain too …. Two bedrooms of different sizes, for no logical reason? Mr. Gray has to know that might be a source of contention between the two roomies …. as well as Les’s propensity for being a scuzzbag, something ain’t right here …..

Ahhh, YouTube, YouTube, YouTube….what can’t that “media-based research sensation” teach people about?

“On The Count Of Laundering….Not Guilty!”

“I Won’t Take The Last Stain To Knoxville” (♬♪)

“You’re Just Too Clothes Minded!”

“Never Mind….They’re Going Back To Their Roots!” (♬♪♩)

“Not Much To Gain, When Its Low Tide”

or

“The Not-So-Clean Getaway”

For all the reasons above, this is an irritating arc, but it’s meant to be. We’ll have to wait and see what Monday’s revelation is. T. Clark, again we haven’t heard from you lately.

Gunther is a “Full Grown Man” no one is forcing him to live there!

{sigh} – This is not going to end well. Gunther, get out while you can. Go find a place to live. Maybe go live with Tiff!

Looking forward to how this gets resolved. I hope Gunther finds a better place.

Give the boys time. They’ll work it out.

about the only help id give that bum Leslie is to the door and all his belongings to the street

This house was built specifically for these two to share. Why is there a “bigger bedroom” in the first place? Talk about poor planning!

Nice waftaroms.

Oh, yeah. This is gonna work out well.

You don’t move in with piles of dirty laundry in a half hour. Mr. Gray clearly gave Les access way before Gunther. Plus unequal bedroom size designed in? What’s going on with Gray?

Some random thoughts:The Songbirds were out trilling to day. Full-throated, in fact. :o)

I can’t wait for tomorrow and the bathroom expo.

Thank’s BUCINKA for the vocab lesson. I now know what dites, vites and blurgits are!

Seeing Les’ laundry pile, we now know why he is reduced to a towel, shoes and socks.

Several commenters have queried about the reason for the different sized bedrooms. The obvious answer is GnK’s obsession with vexing Gunther. They most likely keep at it to see if they can cause MORDY a mild apoplexy. ;o)

Might first need an EPA hazardous materials permit. Don’t forget to slip a RED sock with his whites and lights for good measures. That may encourage Les to handle his own laundry.

it didn’t take me too long to learn the real value of having a single room while in college. well worth it.

Just wait til Leslie sees Gunther’s 6-pack abs that he developed in Peru.

Very irritating thread. Les continuing to bully Gunther as roommates. Shame that Gunther can’t go live on his own…he NEEDS to be alone.

How helpless can a person get? Les has been living with Uncle Al. How did his laundry get done there? and what food did he eat? Is he used to maid service? I doubt Al is the type to wait on anyone. I don’t care what lack of upbringing Les has had. Right now he is despicable human being. I don’t know how anyone can live on this planet for 20 years, in the developed world, and not know how to feed himself or run a load of laundry in a washing machine. I like Gunther’s approach.

Okay, okay, all you college boarders, bask in the memories of your soft living conditions………I had the fun of barracks life in my youth, and none of them looked as disgusting as this garbage pile Les seems to favor. I have a little more confidence in Gunther and don’t think he’ll require HAZMAT as his cleaning service.

I think Gunther should consider putting a lock on his bedroom door. He’ll be spending a lot of time on campus. As much as we think Les has been changing in a positive way, there are still a lot of remaining negatives.

Les is walking around in that towel like Paul Bellini from Kids in the Hall.

Why are the bedrooms different sizes? The just built the noint, why design it with anything but equality? That makes no sense, and AL Gray knows better than to start this off with such a petty dispute caused by something so simple.

Well the poor guy is out of laundry. He may be thinking, “If you don’t like looking at this, do my laundry.”

I dread an imminent solution from Al & Irma: Les is working – so he can give Gunther a little money for food, and Gunther can provide the cooking and laundry (and sewing). Greg & Karen – Please don’t do that to Gunther. Give him a break of some kind.

Maybe Gunther can live in the dorm a while, be a dormkeeper (whatever they’re called, like Bernice) to earn his room and board.

Note: He DID ask for help.

Sort of.

Gunther is making a start on asserting himself against Les, but it’s going to take more than a video if Gunny is going to come out of this unharmed….

Gunth, there’s a term for guys like you in correctional circles if you give in to any of this BS! Just saying.

Greg Evans in a nut shell: A whole bevy of attractive women (except for Bernice, Dez, and Ms. Berger) and a stable full of male losers. This is a very creepy track record.

Les thinks Gunther is supposed to be his servant. He should consider that Gunther is a thousand times smarter than him, and can make him sick, or dead, or whatever, without ever leaving a trace.

So, Greg and Karen… been watching a lot of ‘The Odd Couple’ in reruns, lately?

This is unfortunately a true-to-life scenario. I once stayed a couple weeks at a YWCA, where they had washers and dryers available for our use. My roommate, about 21 or so years of age, finally got up the nerve to ask me, very embarrassed, if I would show her how to use the washer and dryer. Her mother had never taught her! I was only too happy to show her, as I had been using them since I was tall enough to reach the dials. She was so grateful! I can’t imagine a mother (well, maybe Les’s) who would not educate a child in basic activities of daily living.

Run Gunther RUN!

I haven’t bought a washer in years. I’m afraid the current new models will have a remote with 100 numbers, 20 letters, and daily option uploads. And Oh Yeah _ What’s my #@%^ing PASSWORD?
