I’m thinkin they needta invest in another fan just for Nancy. Unless Nancy’s been usin the excuse of standig in front of Les’ fan just to get close to him. Mebbe we’re thinkin about this all wrong an we got it backwards. Might be Nancy’s in to Les..
I can’t believe I’m about to write this, but for ONCE, I’m in FULL agreement with Knox. Heck, I’ll even leave out the (UGH).
I’m hoping this arc ends today. Not that it was a bad arc (It WASN’T). But BEFORE Knox puts two and two together and figures out where Tiff got her info from.
Because it’s likely Les would unload on Gunther first back at the Gulag. And the Gunnerman will have NO Earthly idea what the H3LL Les is yelling about.
Or WORSE, Tiffany decides to make “amends” with Les (Easy Stomach) and get the SILLY idea to prove to him that she IS Hot.
So, keep up the GOOD work in panel two and three, Les, and don’t backslide!
And congratulations, Ox! You still have (slim) shot with Tiff now that hopefully Les is forever out of the running.
Kudos to Les for the maturity he shows in limiting himself to just one stinging comment. I fear Tiffany hasn’t learned not to jump to conclusions or pry. But this awkwardness will probably make her think twice before assuming it’s all about her. Her journey of maturation continues, I think it’s going pretty well.
So, every morning I read the latest adventure of a guy whose life is so small that he actually notices when someone stands in front of “his fan” and goes home and tells his cat about it. I don’t know who’s more pathetic, him or me.
I would really like to see this story continue, but with Les getting some kind of revenge on Gunther and Bets (who seem to be sharing laughs about things he says to Punk). Maybe he could feed some juicy info about them to Tiffany that would get back to Bets, or better yet, make a few offhand remarks to Irma and Al about their guest house being a “love nest”. Both Gunther and Bets have broken a basic roommate rule – you don’t repeat your roommate’s private conversations or situations that you might inadvertently hear or learn about. Both Gunther and Bets are being really inconsiderate IMO. When Les is off work and trying to relax he shouldn’t have to put up with hearing them going at it, because if they can hear him talking to a cat on his lap he can definitely hear everything they’re doing. How hard would it be for them to show some courtesy and get together when he’s not home?
It was over 30 years ago someone told me that a man I was interested in had started to date a younger woman. I asked someone else about it who made it sound like I was gossiping, you know, narrowing the eyes with a crafty “I got you now” expression.. The man approached me asking me to talk to him if I needed to know something. You know, to this day he and I are still friends. He gave me a healthy boundary and I respected it.
Tiff should’ve left well enough alone and went with Kip’s kind words of encouragement, instead of thinking she was all that, and accused Les of having the hots for her. Now she suffered a major hit to her ego. Serves her right.
It looks like we get to congratulate today’s installment of long-running legacy strip Hagar the Horrible for being less afraid of sex than this strip’s title character.
Wow, what a surprise, not. I am truly enjoying the story lines since last spring or so with the whole Tiff & Bets doing a personality makeover on Luann. Really enjoy watching the 5 after midnight crowd get yanked around by the nose, kinda funny really ! ;-)

Hot Flashes It Is! Tiff should be red with embarrassment. Les was justified to tell her off.
Tiff was lucky he didn’t ask her why she accused him of being hot for Nancy.

So will we have a new arc on Monday or will they drag this out longer?
