Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for December 17, 2022

… And that’s a wrap! =/

So they’re not going to give a definitive answer to the window. We’ve seen the shards of glass still left in the window and the size of the opening, no way an intruder made it through there. But leaving it this way, Tiff will be scared and is sure to move back into the dorm.

(Fingers crossed for a fun Christmas story arc!)

Say it isn’t so… is Stef thinking of cheating on Kippy??

What’s Stefani doing, flirting with the glass repair man? She already has Kip.

Cute business name. ✨

Golf balls?

This is getting to be a bit much. I thought this was a family strip.

Yes, Stef you have a crack. Dex has a crack, Bets has a crack, Tiffany has a crack. It’s a rather vulgar comment, not worthy of being called a double entrende.

I’m disappointed that Greg has not answered the question of the window though the glazer hints that it was a neighborhood crank. I’m not sure I’d want to stay in a house with a window breaking crank around, You never know what else he’ll get up to.

So is this glazer going to be a continuing character? Will Tiffany ever be able to stuff her eyes back in their sockets?

Tiffany is Twitterpated! Could HE be The One!

Looks like Stef has made the first move though. I just bet her crack is in her windshield!

I think she IS cracked…

I love the name of the glass company. It reminds me of an instrumental song.

Now we know that there was a creep in the neighborhood! Tiffany was justified in her panic attack!

Stef see’s fresh young meat, even when she seeing Kip.

OK! So now we know that it wasn’t a drone or a bird.Did Stefi forget about her boyfriend

So there is zero communication with the next door neighbor.

Yup. Typical.

So what did the burglar steal?

Failed pick-up line #2469: Talk about your crack.

Stef, you HAVE a boyfriend already!

Ohhhh…THAT is one good-looking cartoon guy. Go away, Stef. Have you forgotten Kip already? But of course, Kip is nothing compared to HIM.

Stefi’s cracked all right. Two of her three brain cells have already escaped through that crack.

Where are the cops in all this?

Stefani is SO GROSS.

Nice double entendre there, wonder what she’s willing to trade in order to have it filled, er, fixed?

Would the name of that company be a play on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NE6X4IQNA4

Must give a nod to Greg. He’s finally created a male figure that looks decent, not a Gunther or Piro or Nil or poor Ox, or Leslie, or smiling TJ

He did it, calling it now

stef, stop wagging your tail at him, dear

Ah.

Seems that Stef isn’t as fixated on Kip as she wants everyone to believe.

Could be the reason why she took Kip’s ring off and “lost” it this past Summer.

To fool around in His absence.

On the other hand, the neighborhood has a problem with a rich hating vandal.

Time to form a neighborhood watch.

Or hire a 24/7 sniper……,

We all know you’re cracked, Stef, but it’s not your windshield…

So it looks like random vandalism – the window next door was also broken.

So I guess from what he said someone WAS breaking into houses? If by “hit” he meant someone broke in and stole things. Tiffany’s giant horrified eyes and speechlessness make me think she’s worried and about to check to see if she missed something that got stolen. And Dez and Bets are trying to entertain the possibility of the less plausible suggestions to encourage Tiffany to not freak out? I hope that’s the case cause if this is the last part of this plotline I’d feel like we never got a conclusion.

And of course Stef’s one-track mind is entirely on seducing the handyman. This is the first time she’s made me chuckle with how everyone is focused on concerning issues and she’s like, "Yeah, yeah, enough of that, ladies! I want to ask this big boy if he can handle my cracks! >;) "

I like the “Classical Glass” (errr Gas) reference G&K! Time to play some Mason Williams though I just heard it as some bumper music on an old Art Bell “Coast to Coast” archived show I downloaded a few nights back. Cool tune!

So it wasn’t because Tiff had advertised her place for storage that there was a break in. That would make ferry feel a bit better.

Classical Glass!… what great name; except for the earworm now playing in my head.

No! This is all in service to force Tiff back into the dorm! In other words… It’s a trap.

She got a crack all right, a crack on her head!

Yes, she does, and a bit well-worn, too.

Stef has a one crack mind.

Greg could have gotten in another song of the same vintage as Mason Williams’ “Classical Gas”. Stef could have told Tiff, that after the guy mentioned a creep in the neighborhood hitting houses, she turned a “Whiter Shade Of Pale”. (by Procol Harum)

Double entendre?

And the creep is? Axel, of course.

Looks like it’s time to organize a neighborhood watch.

Well, fortunately for the creep, Tiffany waited an entire month to fix the hole so he had plenty of time to come and go as he liked and take whatever he wanted.

Stef doesn’t really love Kip!

Gomez and Uncle Fester are hitting golf balls again…

Like the Mason Williams reference. (Classical Gas)

They draw the cutest guys….

So, ignoring the antics of the ditz brigade, it seems like there was at least one more window breakage. Hopefully that’s what they’ll follow up on on Monday.

Stef, expert in the single entendre.

So maybe it wasn’t a burglary, just some kid busting windows to bust windows, like teenagers sometimes do?

So, the mansions are on a golf course…some snotty patron hit and ran without offering to pay for damages because, you know, people who love near golf clubs are asking for it.

Don’t think Dick head, I mean Kip, would like Stef showing this guy her crack in his windshield.

When checking for the estimate, he will make note that the afore mentioned crack has a lotsa miles on it for such a new model.But seriously, he probably busted the window. A small time glass guy trick. When a house is obviously empty for the evening you fill a small balloon with dry ice & throw it through the window. If indoors is over 60° the evidence is all but gone in 20 min. or so. Drive around looking for repairs. They’ll be glad you showed up.

Wait, WHAT? A serial windows breaker? A terrible prank made to a creep is what scared poor Tiffany so much to make her fall from the stairs? I think Tiffany is feeling really confused right now, angry and probably even a tiny bit stupid. Good thing Dez and Bets are trying to make her feel better pretending was something more.

“Classical Glass.” A tribute to Mason Williams hit? (always liked the video they had of it on the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.)

I can’t believe that comment made it by the editors. The double entendre is not even subtle.

Plot twist: maybe the creep hit both Tiff’s mansion and next door with a drone. Drones are capable of carrying cameras, and Tiff is a 19 year old woman, so….

Looks like Tiffany has love at first sight sickness over a window repairman. How appropriate. And GREG – the crack reference wasn’t really necessary, it feels like a stupid cheap dirty attempt at humor. I can hear stupid dirty remarks at the bar.

Looks like Stef’s going to show her crack to the repairman!

Shoog is definitely cracked.

Was going to make a crack about Steffi’s crack but realized this is a family strip.

what does that have to do with her windshield? – more likely her backseat

Wow Steffi’s a bit of a player (cleanest word I could think of).

Steph is a “blonde bimbo”. NO offence to blondes, but girls like Stef give blondes a bad name. So much for loving her “football hero”. That girl will bed ANY handsome male.

This is borderline naughty-’way over the border.

Well, now I’ll be humming THAT song all day long…if the repairman’s name is Mason I’m gonna bust a gut laughing…

So Tiff has been recuperating for weeks and this window has been broken the whole time?

All Stef wants is the guy!

Someone in Team Evans a Mason Williams fan?

We know there is a window breaker around. Do we know how he did it? They’ve established it was none of the expected methods of breaking windows. And no housekeeper to have the window fixed in the last few weeks? Even an empty house of that size usually has someone checking periodically.

=:-O

Classical Glass — great name

Perhaps it was a projectile icicle like in the Christmas Vacation movie…..still laugh at that scene (with Julia Louis Dreyfus)

My only comment is did the cartoonist not see the double entendre? The first thing I thought was the dumb/lewdness of her informing him of her crack.

That was my first thought, too. I have that song on the music cd I play in my car. My second thought was that the window broken in the mansion looked very ornate (maybe Gothic?) and expensive. The repair man had mentioned the house next door, which was probably another costly window. My point is that he may specialize in “classic” windows and that may be the reason for the company name.

trivial pursuit: Nextdoor emails us lots

Love the company name….Classical Glass

I love that ad hoc nod of sorts to Mason Williams on the door of the truck.

Someone dump water on Steph to cool her off! Sheesh! Ok, now who ya gonna call? Ox Security? A legit security company (can’t believe the mansion has no system) or will the girls move in? Moving back to the quad doesn’t solve this security problem. =:-o

Kids breaking windows – the object they used is still a mystery and probably will never be told.

Whoever it was caused Tiffany’s injury by setting up the conditions for her fall. CREEP!

Anyone else wondering where her Dad has been this entire time? It’s his house. Don’t you think he should be dealing with it?

On the other hand, “Classical Gas” was a pretty great idea.

Ohhhh! Whatever happened to the Idiot’s everlasting love for the Kipster? Hmmmm?

He does windshields, but doesn’t do hoors.

I love the name of the company – Classical Glass. Any Mason Williams fans out there?

so it was ‘somebody’… makes sense. the work looked too surgical for it to be caused by some random event. someone (but who?) is hitting on big mansions in a high end neighborhood.

The most X-rated strip ever!

I think this arc will continue this week. Nothing was thrown through the window to break the glass because nothing was found on the floor, like a rock or some such. The bars are bent which wouldn’t have happened with a rock, drone or bird. Here’s what happened: Kids broke the window, used a ladder to reach the window, bent the bars back and crawled inside the kid size space looking for something to steal. When they found nothing worth taking they exited stage left.

Stef looks like a deer in the headlights.

Double entendre or are you just happy to see me? Still up in the air where Tiffany so going to stay. The window repair guy is drawn very distinctly. Hmmm.

No one seems to be paying attention to the glazier, who just said something Very Interesting. (And so did Stef. I have a dirty mind, but the glazier appears to have one, too.)

Good lord, all of you shutup.

I think Tiffany is gobsmacked by this repairman. He doesn’t look anything like Aaron (now in Hawaii) or Quill (back in Oz (Australia)).

That guy looks like he wants to take care of Stef’s crack

“Classical Glass” or CG Windows Repair Guy could be the culprit?

So they left the door open? Way to go with security, Tiff.

Tomorrow – Sunday – Shannon ignites a firestorm that promises to separate the sheep from the goats in the Commentariat and general readership.

Some will try to blame/excuse her “she’s just a little kid!” but it won’t help. Others will say “that’s not Shannon”, with the same result.

(Mr. Grouch gets the Sunday funnies on Saturday via paper delivery.)

I’d say the crack is in Stef’s head.

I always wondered why if someone was breaking in, why the second floor. Looking at today’s talk bubbles, the window is at the side of the house with a roof line outside of it. Maybe someone climbed on roof and broke window with -I don’t know – maybe a hammer. Then there would be no objects inside to find. I know it’s just a comic strip – stop trying to solve it.

Sunday: Last minute Christmas shopping frenzy!!

Kip who?!

Tiff’s wide eyes… the neighborhood burglar or the cute glass repairman (and watching Steffi in action); all of the above i think.

Confucius say, “Female pilot who fly upside down have crack up.”

Tiff is frozen in wonder (is Glass Guy really that striking?), and while Dez and Bets continue to lobby their pet theories, Stef makes a move (and drops a double entendre, even if unconsciously).

Can this really be the end of the Broken Window Mystery sequence?

She’s cracked alright.

My apologies if I step on someone else’s comment, but, there were too many to try to read, to be sure I didn’t…What if, the window repairman is the one breaking windows, so he can get inside to fix them, and get an idea about alarms, etc.?

Did Ox fixed the front door? Who lives next door?

Some wild imaginations here in the comment section! I don’t believe the glass company broke the window. If they were going to do that, why not damage a big window, not that little one? And the repairmen didn’t just show up on the scene – Tiff CALLED him. I feel sorry for the guy. He starts speaking of his theory of the cause, and then has to endure two ditzes trying to convince Tiff of their “theories”, plus hearing a thinly-veiled proposition from a third ditz. All in a day’s work for him, I guess, but sheesh!

Also, I can’t for the life of me remember how long the window has been broken. Or whether Tiff’s dad has helped out with the situation. Okay, I’m carrying on my griping for too long. Maybe the arc will end for a while starting next week, or I’ll find some Anti-Grump pills to take.

Did she ever call the police???

Stefani Bird is not wearing a ring?

Tiffany looks like she sees a ghost…..It may not be a break-in. It could be somebody just breaking windows like Ernest T Bass in The Andy Griffith Show.

‘Classical Glass’…! BRILLIANT!!

So, HOW longer exactly (comic time) has she waited to get the window fixed ??

Wow, stef wants to be treated like a classy woman. Then she tries to seduce a repair guy by apparently offering him her bubble butt.

“Classical Gas” is a wonderful piece of music!

I love the name of the glass company; “Classical Glass” and think that Greg is thinking of the Song “Classical Gas” which is appropriate for this arc.

The comment section of Luann is the best!

Perhaps he can fix the crack in Stef’s head, too.
