Tiffany technically was even better looking than Steph back when she was in great physical shape. I wonder if Steph mocking Tiff so much regarding her current overweight will provoke her into getting in great shape again, in order to outdo Steph in the beauty area.
I have literally never seen one woman be rude to another woman about her weight to her face like this. If anyone in my friend group did it someone would end up with a busted lip.
It has taken Greg many years to turn the high school love goddess into that chunky, little twit. It is the opposite of “The Picture of Dorian Grey”. Back in the mansion hangs a picture of the beautiful Tiffany, while out on the street, Greg continues to drag her down. Shame on Greg, may the poop of a thousand camels defile his art studio.
Time to get rid of Stef. Although the strip could do with a good antagonist, Stef is 1 dimensional and preposterous. She is simply irritating snd does not serve the strip.
It’s like Tiffany is arguing with her past self by playing the role that used to be Luann’s. I think doing this will be good for her personal growth, but I’m also afraid she might decide to try to rebrand Stef to be a better girlfriend for Kip involvingBets and Dez. Luckily, Stef would never accept their help.
Tiffany may not be as Svelte as she was in her high school. But neither is she as overweight as Steffi is trying to insult her as being. The lack of “suitors” comes from her past attitude, which iiiishe is trying to overcome
In a sense, Tiff ALREADY outdoes Steff in that area. Beauty is more than your body. It is your compassion, your giving to others, caring about others. It is WHO you are, not just what you look like.
This argument as about as violent as “Luann” has been in over a decade, which is saying how milktoast the strip has become. On the other hand there are no obvious reason Tiffany would want Kip, Like Aaron Hill from long ago, his depths are paper thin.
Tiff was portrayed as a possible sociopath, but in spite of her shallowness, and rich girl entitlement, she has grown, right in front of our eyes, including the weight, which I think is a touchstone in her healing. She doesn’t have to be skinny to satisfy other’s needs, not hers. Steph is not a sociopath either, but she has a serious personality disorder (I’m not doing a Bernice here, not a doc) in terms of being able to get out of what she thinks Kip wants (which he can get, no issue) totally missing what he really wants, a true, trusting GF. A friend person. I think the contest over who gets him in the end is unimportant. Its not a contest. Its Steph learning humility and true love. No Pressure!
After reading the comments, let’s pretend Tif DOES suddenly return to her old physical form. And voila! Kip or some other dude sees her, latches on and she leaves Tif in the dust. What does that say about any of them? What message does that send kids? That old stereotypes are still valid? That unless a chick comes wrapped up in supermodel wrapping paper, just her brain or her heart won’t be enough. Yeesh. Count me out.
They need to get rid of this Tiffany character. She’s trite, condescending, dishonest and self-righteous. It’s amazing how all of a sudden none of her actions caused any of these problems and I don’t get how she thinks she can always voice opinions on things she knows nothing about. Like other people’s relationships. Who made her the agent and protector for poor little Kip? Give me a break. This is really stupid now.
I’d take Tiff over Steff any day, Tiff’s hot and a more complete person, Steff is the girl everyone moves on from at some point or another. Workin on the night moves, trying to make some front page, drive in news! …….. ;-)
Neither Tiff nor Stef are blameless here. Stef is a jealous, hateful, spiteful bi…, uhm… person and Tiff needs to back off and disentangle herself from the situation. She was out of bounds going to Kip’s room.
“Chunky little twit”. I know that had to sting. But to be honest, Tiff was indeed trying to move in on Kip. Trying to kiss him and whatnot. So she’s not totally innocent as she claims to be.
In the first panel Stef seems to think Tiffany has a lot of power, since she was able to make Kip break up with Stef. In the last panel Stef thinks Tiff has no power over anything. Which is it, Stef?
One of my all-time favorite lines from all media is near the end of the Wizard of Oz, as Dorothy is saying her goodbyes and the Scarecrow says, “Now I know I’ve got a heart, ‘cause it’s breaking.”
Regarding the “chunky” comment. I know and have known many beautiful women who some would call chunky that were actually solid muscle. They could easily break the Barbie-babes in half, metaphorically speaking. I prefer them to the twigs that Americans seem to prefer.
It’d be a lot easier to root for Tiffany if she hadn’t been spending the past few years plotting to steal Kip away from Stef, using every tactic she could think of (except of course for the foolproof one that G&K won’t let her try since they demand all their female protagonists remain as chaste as nuns.) To alter a common saying: it’s not paranoia if they really are doing the thing you think they’re doing. This situation is what Reddit refers to as ESH: Everybody Sucks Here.
Calling Tiff a “chunky little twit” should get her kicked out of their dorm. Dez and Bets need to back Tiff on this and get Stef out of their lives. Which should have happened already – immediately after Stef accused Tiff of stealing.
Stef is getting awfully personal and nasty by attacking Tiff’s looks. She is feeling mega insecure. A lot like Tiffany treated Luann in high school. I wonder if Tiffany will make the connection? Has she “evolved” enough to do so? So far, she seems to be taking the high road here. I doubt we will see an actual fight—-mostly just words.
Steff tries to control Kim with her body. She has both a borderline personality disorder and a narcissistic personality disorder. Psych majors please comment.
