Tiffany: "Oh! Brainstroke!" Bernice: "Brainstroke?" Tiffany: "I'm planning a humongous Halloween happening in my suite" Bernice: "You are?" Tiffany: "But even my suite isn't big enough. So many people are coming!" Bernice: "They are?" Tiffany: "What if all my partiers come to your show?! A show-party!!" Quill: "I like it! How many partiers would there be?" Bernice: "One"

I too am as dumbfounded as Bernice when Tiffany said “brain stroke.”

Tiff is ambitious. But even her account can’t “cash this check that she’s trying to write”…. – And even if she could connect some people through “Star-man” (Piro), what kind of people- Unless “Quill!” doesn’t care, so long as there are ‘butts in seats"… – I guess everyone’s putting the, uh.. transport thingy in front of the long faced pullin’ critter…

So is ‘brain stroke’ Tiffany’s way of saying she’s had a really great idea, or do we need to call 911?

Uh Tiff, Doesn’t one need to have a brain before it can have a stroke?

Her lips? What about her eyes? They look like she has Graves’ disease…

When Tiffany says, “I’m planning a humongous Halloween happening in my suite,” why does Bernice say “You are?” Bernice knows that Tiffany wants to do that. They spent all of last week’s strips talking about it. It’s obvious that Bernice is skeptical that the party will take place or anyone will show up, but she should have said “Humongous?” instead of “You are?” if she wanted to express skepticism.
ORMouseworks about 10 years ago
LOL…gotta love it! ;)
Meh~tdology, fka Pepelaputr about 10 years ago
“Humongous”?Wasn’t that the body-builder dude wearing a hockey goalies’ mask in Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior ?
ORMouseworks about 10 years ago
IJB: Isn’t that a stretch, though?! (I mean, assuming Tiff actually uses her brain when losses need to be cut?)… ;)
ORMouseworks about 10 years ago
IJB: Yes, and we all know what “assumed” means! LOL… ;)

"They will expect Tiff to buy their way in. And supply “refreshments.” ^Yup!

Well, it was sort of rainy here today…too mucky to do serious outdoor work, but not bad enough so I would have had to cancel IS Katie’s walk! Tomorrow’s going to be drier, so we’ll both be out…in the mud! =-O Time to put IS Katie to bed…and me, too. I’ve got another good book to read… ’Nite all!-————————————————————————“A custom loathsome to the eye, hateful to the nose, harmful to the brain, dangerous to the lungs, and in the black, stinking fume thereof, nearest resembling the horrible Stygian smoke of the pit that is bottomless.”(King James I of England and VI of Scotland, 1566-1625)

Ha ha, yes, she is having a brain stroke. @ReallyBad2 She is the punchline today, but it is kinda cute.
kbvaughn about 10 years ago
Tiffany should quit college and get a job as a party planner. That’s all she wants to do.

Hoo-Boy. The “Manikin” is about to FALL for Tiffany’s Predictably STUPID Idea.
Just Wait’ll a Predictably JEALOUS Luann Finds out that Her Arch-Rival has Been “Poaching” Her “Property.”
I HOPE You’re READY for the Third, Fourth, and Fifth Degrees, Pretty-Boy…,

Does Tiffany want to turn a stage play into a Halloween party?

Won’t Bernice be busy studying?

I think the word Tiffany was going for is brainfart

With apologies to IamJayBlue, today’s song might be ‘One is the Loneliest Number’….

Does this mean that Tiff will pay the admittance fee for all these ‘party show’ attendees?

Am I an old fuddy duddy or is the Luann comic becoming boring as hell?
ACTIVIST1234 about 10 years ago
“Empty warehouse, it will be dark, a throng of partygoers – sounds like the show will be quite the “rave.””*BS, and since they’ve had only 3 days to rehearse (note: there’s a hearse in that word), the play might be improv with audience participation. Wild!
Sisyphos about 10 years ago
I’m liking Tiffany more and more! She’s had a clever brainstroke and is eager to help Quill’s cause. If only that dour and sour Bernice weren’t there, trying to subvert rather than to help! The main thing lacking is friends to fill the seats, because, so far, Tiff has none, not even many acquaintances so far at Moony University….
ACTIVIST1234 about 10 years ago
As I remember the story, there’s a pretty lady, a preacher, a ne’er do well, a horse, and a jack-o-lantern. Cast Quill, Hair, Piro, Bern, Tiff, Sun, Vampire girl (?) in each part, remembering it takes 2 to make a horse.

What does the drama department want with admission receipts anyway?It’s not like they’ll be paying Washington Irving any royalties.(And the Undivine Miss M should have her pay docked for the way she runs her department.)
ACTIVIST1234 about 10 years ago
And the ferret! The ferret wants a part iin the play too.

In this day and age, when humiliating pics go viral on the web constantly, it’s a bit more than a ‘mistake’ to insist on a shot when someone asks you to stop.-Quill has yet to have a best moment…
Argy.Bargy2 about 10 years ago
@RB2Reply function decided not to work, as usual.
It’s interesting that, to you, a male character’s best moments are when he teases a woman character by taking unwanted pics, or tells her she’s imperfect. And, to you, these actions are classified as ‘mistakes,’ and not displays of active disrespect (and if continued, such as continuing to take unwanted pictures, outright bullying.)-It’s no surprise that the female character you find acceptable in this comic is the one who has a history of being confrontational toward the female viewpoint character. You are becoming as predictable as Quill….

More like ‘dissing’ her. I wish she would….“dis”…appear!

Tiffany had better hop to it!She has games, and decorations, and little wienies in bbq sauce to get together!
BJShipley1 about 10 years ago
I’m still trying to figure out why Tiffany gets a suite all to herself while Bernice (and presumably everyone else) has to have normal sized rooms and roommates. You can’t even use the “well, she lives off-campus” excuse since it’s been shown that she’s in the same building as Bernice.Seriously, do any colleges actually have that living arrangement? “We’ll put one enourmous suite right next to all these normal dorm rooms and only put a single freshman in there. I’m sure no student will object to this blatant preferential treatment.”

LOVE all the comments (seldom read much, but tonight I did). Luann does lend itself to much analysis.

I know everyone here seems to hate it when I talk about the earlier release of the next day’s comic on the ArcaMax site, BUT… it seems as if ,uh, undesirable smelly substances are heading toward some whirling blades…
