Well, to each there own. At least Tiff has, often misguided, confidence and direction. Of some kind.
whayle almost 13 years ago
Funny how she has not mentioned Quill once. But I bet that changes the moment she sees Luann!
Namrepus almost 13 years ago
Yeah, because if there’s one thing they need in Hollywood, it’s bottle blonde bubbleheads like Tiff.

This story line is dull and pointless…….[rolls eyes]

I think it’s actually kind of nice that Tiffany has aspirations and goals. I mean does any other character set a goal and work toward it lately? .And I know it’s unlikely to happen but it’s kind of nice to see a character with a positive attitude and optimism after completely dreadful storylines where Brad lost his job and almost broke up with Toni or Luann whining like a dweeb for a week about how no one likes her. .I mean if Tiffany wasn’t the designated “villain” (even though she’s went from Mean Girl of the school to being just a mild annoyance) I think more people would find the fact that she’s ambitious and positive to be one of the nice breaks from all the angst this strip has.

At least she has confidence, maybe Luann can learn a thing or two.

if you put your ear against tiff’s ear, could you hear the ocean? remember, folks, the only reason tiff is in the strip in the first place is for greg to do the blonde jokes.

Once in Los Angeles, I was eating at my favorite late night steak house when a flamboyant man entered with four beatufiul women hanging on him. After watching this scene play out for a few minutes, I asked the waiter if he was someone of note. He said, “Oh yes, he is the friend of a producer.”

True story – I was at a magazine co. in NY and some 20ish guy in ripped jeans with a big s**t eating grin and a beautiful girlfriend hanging all over him walks in. He was treated like gold because he had some person of note on his cell phone. I only recognized the name as someone you might see on Leno but I couldn’t remember what he looked like. Any of the stars I would have liked to meet are all dead. Nobody today comes close.

Okay, I Fianlly GOT it.
WHY these two are Friends, I mean.
Tiffany has ABSOLUTELY no CONCEPT of what SARCASM means. Therefore Crystal can make SNIDE remarks about Tiff and get away with it.
So, Crystal willingly Hangs around and LISTENS to Tiffany’s ‘BS’ for Sheer ENTERTAINMENT value.
One other thing: Has Mr. Oz met Crystal yet? Or Rosa? Since Luann seems content to wallow if self-pity, maybe Quill should MOVE ON to one of THOSE two ladies.If nothing else, maybe THAT would spur Lu into getting off her perfectly formed duff and ACTING for a CHANGE.
Whew. Tired. Need COFFEE….,

She’ll probably wait until the end of high school, providing her grades are decent enough for her to graduate.

It’s official. Tiff needs her own strip. Just a strip that shows us how she views the world…little pink hearts, puffy clouds and random herds of wild ponies running free across the plains

Cue up “Do You Know the Way to San Jose?” The lyrics fit like a glove.

why did crystal just grab fries and a potatoand if that’s not a potato than what is it
vldazzle almost 13 years ago
Hi, Baldeagle, Otto and all, I was also just glad to see (with 3 days of hearing about the LA trip, Tiff said nothing about Quill (I think Whayle is right – she only does that to bug Luann). Tiff is such a one-note person that she does get tiresome when noone is challenging her. And the frog tune was cute (especially part 2).
sjsczurek almost 13 years ago
Tiff looks like she can afford to have some fries and a milk shake.
Cimmorene almost 13 years ago
Good bye, Tiffany. Don’t let the screendoor hit your fanny on the way out.
eocene82 almost 13 years ago
Good for Tiffany! She has a dream that she’s excited about, and she’s actively pursuing it instead of sitting at home moping about it like most other characters in this strip do. She doesn’t care that she wasn’t the star, she’s just glad to work together with other people on something bigger than herself. Run away from this go-nowhere town of ambition-shaming people and don’t look back, Tiffany! You’ll be so much the better for it!
Dragoncat almost 13 years ago
Ah, yes! What could possible be more dull and pointless than getting an education? Especially during these economic times?
tigre1 almost 13 years ago
She has a pole-dancer’s IQ. She’ll meet a lot of pay-for-play bands, too. And be a waitress when she hits 29, wondering.and angry. Ooops. I’ve seen this one…
Kirk Sinclair almost 13 years ago
One can only hope she really does move to Hollywood and leave this strip for good.
Airman almost 13 years ago
I like Tiff. She’s an eye catcher and is perfect for a comic strip because, after all, this is a “comic” strip. Besides, she lets so many readers feel intelligent and superior.
Raymond Powell almost 13 years ago
You haven’t left yet? No! Well don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya!
wiselad almost 13 years ago
I think they did it too dark……… and what Crystal got(specially when right below we have apples and bananas ) was an orange…….. and some mac cheese…………. while is likely that Tiff got Chili Fries, as that is usually how it is served in California (on a big square box)
Popeyesforearm almost 13 years ago
she’d be a perfect Stepford Wife.
doverdan almost 13 years ago
I agree that this story-line is about as dull as they get. .Maybe it will lead to something, but I doubt it..Recently story-lines have been simply dumped at a key point and all the potential fun lost.

I had a slightly different take on today’s strip. My first reaction to panel 1 was Awww.! She looks like a little girl waking up on Christmas morning to find Santa had really come. Sure, her dream is tinsel and fake sugar, but she seems to have turned a corner. Always before, she was only interested in something if she could be the star—that’s what she deserved, after all. Now she’s thrilled to have played a small, menial role in creating something big, something not her’s.

Tiff will end up in the San Fernando Valley doing Adult films
Airman almost 13 years ago
That’s why Crystal would have to go with her as manager and protector. (She could also read the hard words on any script).
Sisyphos almost 13 years ago
Tiffany seems to be having an awakening, an epiphany. I’m not so sure she “belongs” in or would succeed in the film industry, but a trial run at it might help her grow up a bit. She’s not bad at heart, just incredibly self-centered and vapid. If she can come to realize this, she could become a much more interesting character…..As for Crystal, she’s great, but has a tendency to be sharp-tongued. Luann is emotionally underdeveloped and needs to grow up in that respect.

Phosphoros almost 13 years ago
It’s not the movie set that makes Tiffany’s life dull and pointless. It might have been that way before the LA experience.
Airman almost 13 years ago
Sorry to keep fighting the tide of opinion, but I’d still like to see Tiff and Crystal break the mold of the dull, insecure high school student, and head for Hollywood. They would be like another Laverne & Shirley. Poor, simple Tiff would be excited just to get a job at Disneyland wearing a Pluto costume and Crystal would be a success wherever she went.

She only said Hollywood is where she belongs…..not what she will do once she gets there.

@ DaJellyBelly, you mentioned something about a sendoff at the train station? Well, I was going to say something about Tiff and trains… but that would be just tacky, so I’ll keep quiet.
tegm almost 13 years ago
to be honest, her motivation is admirable. If it were a realistic career choice, would be better.
