Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for October 04, 2020

Luann 1; Bernice 0. Go Luann!

We call it the prewash cycle.

Nature’s dishwasher.

and just how long has Luann been owning Puddles? the next question would be how she did the dishes before there was Puddles.

Bernice will return on Monday!

Yes! Let Luann win one sometimes. Luann is truly a sweetheart.

Eating human food is not good for dogs. This may explain why Puddles got his name.

Go Luann!

Example of the bland leading the bland.

Dez and Tiff!!

Larry went to visit his 86 year old grandfather in a very rural area. After spending a great evening chatting the night away, Larry’s grandfather prepared breakfast of bacon and eggs. Larry noticed a film like substance on his place, and questioned his grandfather asking, “Are these plates clean?”

His grandfather replied, “They’re as clean as cold water can get em. Just you go ahead and finish your meal”.

For lunch the old man made hamburgers. Again, Larry was concerned about the plates as it appeared to have tiny specks around the edge that looked like dried egg and asked, “Are you sure these plates are clean?”

Without looking up the old man said, “I told you before, those dishes are as clean as cold water can get them. Now don’t you worry, I don’t want to hear another word about it”.

Later that afternoon, as he was leaving, his grandfather’s dog started to growl, and wouldn’t let him pass. Larry yelled and said, “Grandfather, your dog won’t let me get to my car”.

Without diverting his attention from the football game he was watching on TV, the old man shouted, ‘COLDWATER, GO LAY DOWN NOW, YEH HEAR ME!!!”

Yeah, it’s called rinsing the dishes before loading them.

Is there anything better than dog spit?

Cool fact….

Due to the Coriolis effect on the sprayer arm, in the Southern Hemisphere you load the dishwasher in the reverse fashion, to achieve the same clean results….

What Bernice says would be true if the sprayer bar were free-wheeling and spun at a high rate of speed. I am not a dish washer repairman but I suspect the sprayer arm is turned by a motor and the water is pressurized by a pump to a much higher level then one would get from mere centrifugal forces. So her smarty-pants explanation doesn’t hold any water.

Most all I cook around the house is “dish – lickin’ good”.

My sister uses the same trick used by Luann. Dogs owners are… peculiar. I’m comforted to think that the dish will be cleaned later with water and soap.

So Bernice is a “nut case” because she knows a little something about dishwashers? “Come on,” Luann.

And by the way. In SOME places, the dishes are still washed by hand. And Luann SHOULD know, because her parents have an employee working at the Fuse doing just THAT.

For slightly above minimum wage……., ;)

dogs have a Very high amount of germs in their mouth . look it up .

Considering the cost of dog food, veteranarian’s bills and other things, the dish washer is probably cheaper. And then there’s the way the Douglases do it…

Luann is both lazy and disgusting. You can’t have your dog clean the plates. That’s so unsanitary and senseless.

As a matter of fact this was normal procedure during the Middle Ages in wealthy places. The dogs would lick the plates clean, a dash of water and presto, ready for the next meal.

See? Sometimes the simple jokes are the best…

The Puddles washer, of course!

Is that true?

That’s really unsanitary and disgusting. Please never invite me to dinner, Luann.

Also… I know this is shocking… you can wash dishes with your HANDS, soap and sponge! GASP!

This sums up both Berniece and Luann nicely.

That same trick also cleans his butt quite nicely, by the way! ;o{

Exactly what our dogs would’ve done!!!!

If you want the dishwasher to do a good job, rinse the dishes decently before loading them.

My dishwasher has the sprayer on the bottom so I put the dishes in the lower rack. I put cups in the top rack. Do any dishwashers have the sprayer at the top?

I was going to comment, thinking I was alone, that I’ve done this! Apparently, I’m not alone. My hubby always pre-washed in the sink. A dog would have saved water! Lol!;-D

In our house, we call that the “pre-wash cycle” lol

To some, that example may be disgusting. Still, I know folks who live with a Puddles, or several of them. They are fairly clean and hygene-conscious people overall. Yet they see no problem with a regular face to face “kiss, kiss” from their own Puddles. Oh well…..

So when is this friendship going to end? As kids Luann and Bernice were like sisters. But as adults they are completely different.

And that’s the last time Bernice ever ate off of any plate at the DeGroot’s that she didn’t hand wash herself.

That was funny!

Dogs can clean a plate as well as a dishwasher, but there’s no built in sanitizer.

When I was a kid, my parents told us not to just lick the plates clean.

My brother read this and said she should name our next dog “Pre-wash”

Are some of you that incapable to realize that of course afterwards the plate would still go in the machine to be washed with soap and sanitized?I mean Come on man!

I’m going to get a dog in Spring but there is no way I am going to let the little canine lick clean my plates (or try to keep it from doing it) but this set of panels is really that entry on the gag a day so many hear seem to complain that Luann is not; it’s meant to be funny folks, hilarity ensuing and all.

Imagine how dogs feel. You come home from the grocery store with all kinds of great smelling stuff. Dogs then think you are a magnificent hunter. You cook and prepare meals. The dog, ever hopeful and full of eternal love, gets a bowl with the same meal it eats it’s eternal life with you. You probably don’t walk your dogs, either. But I like the name Spring for your new dog! Please consider at least saving some leftover veggies without sauces to top off your dog’s meal. Not bread. Just meat or veggies that you might throw out.

My Mother and Grandmother used to cook kidneys, for the dogs that lived with us.Occasionally, I would also try some of the kidney. On special occasions, we would ALL have liver. Canine cuisine, can be creative…

I hope all you Millennials know just how wrong Bernice is. Centrifugal Force has nothing to do with the way a dishwasher works.

Pre-Wash – what all dog owners know. What all dogs wish for.

This is also why a lot of families have fat dogs. People don’t clean their plates well, so the dog winds up with another meal and a half!

Totally legit.

It goes without saying (in Greg’s little Luanniverse).

Sorry, Bernie. —Wait. No, I’m not sorry….

gross but doesnt surprise me with a character who has been a lifelong slob.

I told my dog that he has to earn his kibble. LOL

Ah yes, the canine prewash cycle. ;-)

yuuup

why am i not surprised?

Bernice is right.
