“I been in the right place, But it must have been the wrong time. I’d have said the right thing, But must have used the wrong line. I been on the right trip, But I must have used the wrong car. Head is in a bad place and I wonder what it’s good for.”
It was fun to read this mockery of romance novel tropes. I would have liked if Luann and Bernice had met some new friend, but it’s also nice to see them leave feeling worthy and full of optimism. They did have a nice time at the park. They should go on picnics more often, maybe something could happen next time.
Luann is half right. ❤️Eiffellette Sexy❤️Luann is, indeed, romance worthy. Burnoose… needs a little work… a LOT of work. Besides, two guys looking for a romantic pic-a-nik are… not interested… in Sexy❤️Luann or Burnoose. Neither one, boy howdy. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Dilly! Dilly and Have an Ann❤️Eiffel Day. : )
Typical – we chicken out right as anything resembling romance or sex gets close to Luann. Meanwhile, even Brad and Gunther seem to be getting lucky every so often. What is this weird obsession with keeping her all pure and virginal?
In sports and the arts, it’s practice, practice, practice. In business it’s location, location, location. But in comedy and romance, everything is in the… timing.
The two guys would not have chosen that spot if L and B were still there, there would have been at least the usual distance that strangers tend to keep….not exactly an “if only they had stayed another minute” moment here……

Are those “shadow figures” two men? Kinda looks like it. Well, there’s all kinds of romance—and it might explain why the girls couldn’t score.

Factually, those guys would never pick that spot if Luann and Bernice were still there. Part of its attractiveness is that it’s available.

Not necessarily timing, because if they were still sitting there, the guys would have found somewhere else to sit.

The strip needs fresh blood. Let Luann meet a guy, Evanses. I thought Bern + Nil were cute until Bern ruined it with being a muse going to her head.
