Tiffany: Well? hot enough? Gunther: Wow! Um. Yes. Very, um... Tiffany: Now we just wait for Piro to be drawn to the flame. knock knock. Hello? Tiffany: He's here! Watch closely, and you might learn a few tricks to use on bernice.

It won’t be Piro, it’ll be some other guy. Whether it’ll be Les, Ox, Quill, or the two sleazy guys whose names I forgot, who knows. And, um, speaking of sleaze……☺@nickel_penny from yesterday,not all men need a woman to make them complete either. Single is just fine.
I get the impression that Tiffany’s wiles will fizzle. And when they do, she will be smitten by the one man who appears immune to her charms. But of course, that’s just supposition.
I hope this not turn out to be another example of Muirphy’s Law, whatever can go will go wrong, and at the worst possible time. Who is on the other side? If it is Piro, did Tiffany know he would be coming? This is curious.
I have a perfect record. I’ve been wrong on everything I expected or predicted, but it might be Bernice at the door. Whatever, Gunther is getting hot and I hope that he forgets himself and makes a move on and with Tiffany.
It won’t be Piro at the door. And really, do we know if he likes either of the girls? I’m not sure Bernice even likes him, she just thinks he might like her, as evidenced by his crashing at Tiffany’s on at least one occasion. Or something.
So what’s in the box? Does it smell like turpentine and look like India ink? Inquiring minds wanna know.
I don’t know who’s behind the door in Panel #1 nor what’s in the box Tiffany is holding in Panel #3, but I can guess what’s behind Gunther’s hands in Panel #2.
WOW!!! Tiff sure looks pretty, and Gunt has a hard time not showing what this is doing to his testosterones. Pour Gunt, I remember when I used to get those reactions.
What’s up with the mysterious “whooo” and the flummoxed look on ol’ Gunther’s face? Just normal fear? And if one of Tiff’s tricks is dressing up like that, I don’t think it will work on Bernie. Pru, maybe.
Wow. Looks like Gunthie is feeling this effect:I used to know that feeling well, in my youth, when around girls I was attracted to.Also, as Garth in Wayne’s World aptly put it.Yep, the heat is on. :-)I am hoping that Bernice plan fails and there’s a Gunthany hookup.
WAIT. Gunther, You’ve SEEN Tiffany “Hot” not to mention WET before, Right? Last Year? In THIS Dorm Room? When the two of You had That “Moment,” Remember??
Please DON’T Tell Me You had Your Eyes CLOSED the WHOLE Time!!
Another who doesn’t think Piro would be one to say ‘Hello’. I still think the tables will turn and Bernice will show up at some point in this scenario. Maybe even Luann. Gunther’s look in panel 2 is priceless!
as usual, desperately looking for any stupid little thing to complain aboutYep, that’s the way that Caldonia guy always is. (Just ignore it and have fun here.)
I’m thinking it’s Bernice on the other side of the door, and she’ll see Gunther And Tiffany and think Gunther is trying to woo Tiffany away from Piro just so she’ll have a shot.
Caldonia, if i recall right from group images sent by a runner in the family, footless thigh high leg warmers w spandex are also used by ultramarathon runners because they provide an easy-on, easy-off, light weight extra layer of warmth during the night portions of 50 and 100 mile races. If you look them up they start at about ten buck per pair.
Tiff needs to be very cautious around Gunther. He’s particularly vulnerable to her superpower. She needs to build up his tolerance slowly. If he’s exposed to too much at once, it could be fatal.
I think there’s been too much debate today about whether or not Tiffany’s hosiery exists in real life. Let’s all agree that she looks awesome in it and leave it at that.
It is Piro at the door. He says Hello? with a question, wondering why Tiffany wants to see him. Tiffany heard the Hello and recognized the voice of Piro.
The person knocking said Hello? Tiffany can hear the voice. It is definitely NOT a female because Tiff could tell the difference between a male and female voice. I think it is Piro.
6While I understand Tiffany’s reasons for dressing provocatively (somewhat “vampy”), I am very glad it is not a typical part of her mode of dress currently. I really have been enjoying the more comfortable, more casual Tiffany since college. While it is obvious that Gunther is a little “hot under the collar” because of his anxiety about Tiffany’s “look”, I also suspect that some of that “hot under the collar” feeling is also due to him feeling a bit complicit in this somewhat convoluted, somewhat hair-brained, somewhat less than nice scheme to prevent Piro and Bernice to potentially form a relationship. My wager is that it IS Piro at the door. What will happen? There are too many possibilities. But, it would be fun if Piro were to a) reveal some of his back story, b) simply say to Tiffany that he is not interested in her “that way”, or c) that he pops in to get something he forgot (he forgets scarves, so he could easily forget something else), and then leaves…. maintaining ambiguity. If I were a betting man, I would further wager that the person at the door is very unlikely Bernice. I think the current set-up is still too underdeveloped to serve as a plot image to get Bernice jealous (and she is all about Piro at the moment, anyhow). Now, perhaps in a few days, if Gunther starts to be more comfortable at least contemplating a relationship with Tiffany…. then I could easily see the Bernice jealousy arc forming.
I can’t think of a good reason for Bernice to be at the door. I agree those who have argued that it is probably a man’s voice. The door knocker would not know Gunther is inside. But if not Piro, who?
If it’s NOT Piro, the only other male it might be (in my opinion) is Quill looking for Gunther to tell him that he and Luann broke up. Gunther isn’t at home, so Quill would (probably) assume that he was with Tiffany. Since he doesn’t know which suite Tiffany’s in, he’d ask for directions. Knocking, he’d possibly utter a tentative “Hello?”
Hahah! JPuzzleWhiz…. I really like the “Greg-orian” line! Very, very good! And…. I actually like the idea of both Bernice and Piro stopping by TOGETHER. Great idea! I think it could indeed happen that way.
Brdshtt…. I attributed the “Piro & Bernice” both at the door comment to JPuzzle, but now see it was your comment…..I really like that idea and think it would be a very fun way to proceed!Having ALL FOUR of them together, would put EVERYONE in an uncomfortable pickle, I suspect!
it’s like she’s chumming the water for sharks. What’s in that little wrapped box? Yeah.. it sure would be interesting if it was someone other than Piro at the door.
it’s Bernice who needs to learn a few “tricks”. Tiffany looked a lot hotter yesterday, much more ridiculous today. Yesterday, we got to see some of her pants “painted on” her backside.
To add to the leg warmer discussion, the prior campus on which I taught was in more northern climes, and over the last couple of years there I saw many female students wearing leg warmers similar to what Tiffany is wearing in today’s strip.
While I think it will likely be Piro at the door, I am far from certain. In fact, I am concerned I might be disappointed if it is Piro just because the anticipation is so well wrought that I would hate to see it wasted on the obvious.I do suspect that a situation will arise either this week or soon in which Gunther feels the need to come to Tiffany’s “rescue,” and as with Rosa, it will compel Gunther to action he would not otherwise take. I had wondered if that was the purpose of introducing Les back into the strip, as he had pressured Tiffany before. However, it does not seem likely at all that Les is at the door now, and I suspect Gunther’s moment will come sooner rather than later. We shall see.Oh, and I echo what a couple of other people have said regarding the gift – I suspect it will be hair clippers, if it is even ever revealed to us. And as for Tiffany having a gift box handy, I will just say that my wife has a plethora of such boxes ready for nearly any occasion, as well as a stock of generic gifts.
What I don’t get are all the people saying that Tiff will get crushed if Piro isn’t interested. She knows she’s just doing it to help Gunth and is going into it without emotions. I don’t think she’ll be crushed as more as surprised that I doesn’t work and even at that she’ll probably just wonder what’s wrong with him or as she’s matured lately come to realize that not everyone is attracted to her as is the case with Gunther at the moment.
I had not thought of that – the “old” Tiffany certainly would have thought a picture of her would be the best gift imaginable. I am not sure about the current version, but it does seem quite possible.
Gunther has definitely shown he is susceptible to Tiffany’s charms. The question is, does he believe that their current “arrangement” precludes any special, er, “benefits”.
Well, I’ve gone on a serious posting binge today. I’ll give everyone a break and wind up my thoughts for the evening.--I was very pleasantly surprised to see this arc continued this week. Softens my disappointment in last week’s ending. Still not crazy about this “scheme” of theirs. I just don’t see how they think this is going to work. Besides that, one second Tiffany is telling him he should just be himself, then it the next breath says, “I got it. Let’s trick her!” --But I am optimistic about where this might be going. The way this strip works these days, it’s very rare for a story to be followed for 3 weeks. I don’t think they would be doing that if it wasn’t going somewhere important. --Also, I did another parody strip, this one featuring Quill and Luann. I’ll post it some time in the next couple of days.--Peace out, y’all!
Caldonia, you really do NOT keep up w young female clothing options. Bared bellies show up in some situations, especially in warm weather. The spandex thigh high leg warmers are actually not at all unusual, both in and out of sports settings. There are multiple reasons and ways for young women to use them. Heck, i even know a woman in the fashion industry who uses them on her arms in cold weather. Maybe you should buy yourself a pair; they are common enough as a product that you can even find them at Amazon.
Heck, since you want to insist that they’re hose instead of leg warmers – guess what, even THOSE exist:FOOTLESS STOCKINGS ON EBAYAnd now, if you want to redeem yourself, this would be the time to apologize for insulting Greg’s “strange notions about clothing” and his “finally catching on” about the shirt style. And while you’re at it, apologize for all of the other ridiculous, annoying criticisms about any little thing you can pick on in the strip, day after day. Yes, right now would be an absolutely perfect time to do that.But you won’t. ‘Cause you’re Caldy. And Caldy doesn’t do that. Caldy lives to belittle the strip and be obnoxious and annoying. Am i right, or am I right?Geez….
It’s Bernice at the door, OH wait, I already said that this morning, and so did 12 other commenters. Ha ha. Just love this board. And uh, what are those things on her legs, arf arf, LEG Warmers, as described by another 1/2 dozen of the best and brightest. Just thought I’d recap for the latecomers! ☮ yeah, and don’t forget to vote on a new survey at the top. Xox y’all.

The question about Tiff’s legwear was answered fairly definitively around comment #50. Since then, more people have asked about that. Let’s see … you can scroll through all of the comments and see if your question is already answered, or you can ask and then later scroll through all the comments to see if your question has been answered.Which is the least time consuming?(The question is rhetorical, but the least time consuming would be to not even care what those leg coverings are.)

Well, I’ve gone on a serious posting binge today. I’ll give everyone a break and wind up my thoughts for the evening.--I was very pleasantly surprised to see this arc continued this week. Softens my disappointment in last week’s ending. Still not crazy about this “scheme” of theirs. I just don’t see how they think this is going to work. Besides that, one second Tiffany is telling him he should just be himself, then it the next breath says, “I got it. Let’s trick her!” --But I am optimistic about where this might be going. The way this strip works these days, it’s very rare for a story to be followed for 3 weeks. I don’t think they would be doing that if it wasn’t going somewhere important. --Also, I did another parody strip, this one featuring Quill and Luann. I’ll post it some time in the next couple of days.--Peace out, y’all!

somehow , even if it is Piro, I think this could backfire in that he could think he was interrupting something and would quickly leave.

or he might perceive it to be some planned “menage a trois” and decline the offer.

How do her eyebrows do that through all her hair?

Caldonia, you really do NOT keep up w young female clothing options. Bared bellies show up in some situations, especially in warm weather. The spandex thigh high leg warmers are actually not at all unusual, both in and out of sports settings. There are multiple reasons and ways for young women to use them. Heck, i even know a woman in the fashion industry who uses them on her arms in cold weather. Maybe you should buy yourself a pair; they are common enough as a product that you can even find them at Amazon.

Heck, since you want to insist that they’re hose instead of leg warmers – guess what, even THOSE exist:FOOTLESS STOCKINGS ON EBAYAnd now, if you want to redeem yourself, this would be the time to apologize for insulting Greg’s “strange notions about clothing” and his “finally catching on” about the shirt style. And while you’re at it, apologize for all of the other ridiculous, annoying criticisms about any little thing you can pick on in the strip, day after day. Yes, right now would be an absolutely perfect time to do that.But you won’t. ‘Cause you’re Caldy. And Caldy doesn’t do that. Caldy lives to belittle the strip and be obnoxious and annoying. Am i right, or am I right?Geez….

It’s Bernice at the door, OH wait, I already said that this morning, and so did 12 other commenters. Ha ha. Just love this board. And uh, what are those things on her legs, arf arf, LEG Warmers, as described by another 1/2 dozen of the best and brightest. Just thought I’d recap for the latecomers! ☮ yeah, and don’t forget to vote on a new survey at the top. Xox y’all.

Why is Tiffany wearing knee pads? Y’know what, never mind! I don’t want to know!

Apartment 3-G ended last November.
It would have been a more joyous moment if you’d been able to say that all three had ended. :)

Does no one read comments before posting?
The question about Tiff’s legwear was answered fairly definitively around comment #50. Since then, more people have asked about that. Let’s see … you can scroll through all of the comments and see if your question is already answered, or you can ask and then later scroll through all the comments to see if your question has been answered.Which is the least time consuming?(The question is rhetorical, but the least time consuming would be to not even care what those leg coverings are.)

Thanks for the research & pics of the “hotties”, BS! You are an invaluable commenter! (Providing invaluable is not the opposite of valuable.)

“I believe 3 American missionaries of your faith were also injured "*JPW – I think you were referring to our friend, Templo. Missionaries, of whatever faith, do their work despite the known dangers. We thank them.

Steups, I could have worn that for a project in school! Try to picture me in Tiffany’s outfit, Fernandes!
