Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for February 06, 2025

This is about to go all kinds of sideways.

WOW! This was typical.. We all knew Stef would pop up, eventually.

That Bltch! LOL

Tiff needs to set down the pie, tell Ox she won’t need him to cover for her, tend to her tables and bring them their check,,,“Your treat, right, Kippy?”

Greg finally spelled “shug” correctly!

Yeah, I knew it.

Does she only have one outfit?

We will see how this goes Friday and Saturday. I suspect if Stefani plays it cool, she will win out. Will Tiffany start spouting off to break them up? Also, what will TJ do when he sees Ox handling Tiffany’s tables too?

If the pie isn’t in Stef’s face this time tomorrow I will be sorely disappointed,

Forgiveness! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Of course we all know that Kippie will give Stef another chance, believing that she really has changed, (but we all know that she hasn’t) and because he misses the easy lay. Meanwhile, Stef will be nice in front of Kip, but her usual devil self when he’s not around. Tiffany will try and tell Kip that Step hasn’t changed at all, but Kip will believe Stef over Tiffany, believing Tiffany to be jealous.

Tiffany kinda had this coming for jumping the gun in half a nanosecond.

Oh boy! grabs popcorn

Take the high road, Tiffany. You’ll emerge the better for it.

There are other guys, Tiff. He is permanently stapled to Stef.

Stef, Kip did NOT say yes. You forced your way back in and bypassed any thing he said. You were in a hurry because you knew he was there talking to Tiff. Who called you? Les? Ox? TJ in hope that you would do exactly what you did which would prompt Tiff to return to work to save face. Someone at The Fuse called her.

That was perfect timing. Will Kip be able to resist going back to Stef? Sadly, I bet not.

Told ya, Tiff. You lost because you left to powder your nose. Stef snuck in and blocked you. When Kip asked to leave to do something, you should’ve left after Ox agreed to cover your tables. You snooze, you lose, ahem, you powder, you lose. Your vanity cost you Kip.

Put away your road maps, all roads in Pitts are dead ends.

I’ve changed. I’m better. Isn’t that what abusive boyfriend’s say?

I’ve changed, but I’m still going to manipulate you and everyone around you with lies and refuse to hear a word you say. So how will Kip handle it? He’ll fold, of course.

UGGHH!! Why couldn’t you let Tiffany and Kip resolve itself?!

What I would like to see is Kip grow a pair and say " Excuse me Stef but we arent back together and you havent changed. You’re still the same selfish inconsiderate person. Now if you’ll excuse me Id like to go sit with Tiffany and enjoy the pie she brought over for she and I.

Just shove the pie in her face, Tiff!

Shug it off Tiff.

Really, the question is “what does Tiffany see in Kip?” He’s so bland, non-communicative he feels like a clone of Piro. What does he offer in a relationship except maybe the sex?

I figgered she’d show up.

I just noticed that those pieces of pie pointy ends put together are shaped like th bow on Steffi’s head.

Steffi needs a new bow for her hair!

You know that scraping, sort of grinding noise you hear when a car is hopelessly stuck and the tires are just spinning? That’s what I hear when I read this strip now.

Stef’s ongoing addressing of those she barely tolerates by calling them by Marion Knight’s nickname would be more than enough to put off all but the most weak willed.

Okay.

I’m going out on a limb here and predict that Kip is not dumb enough to hook back up with Stef.

At least not right away.

If that’s the case, WAR has been declared.

Although one has to question if THIS “war” like all Wars is truly WORTH it.

At ANY rate, Win or Lose, it’s time Stef’s “dominance” of Quad ENDED: No more Privacy Huts, No more Special Treatment for Steffie-Poo.

And I STILL find it difficult to believe that Stef has had “eyes” for no other guys than Kip. :-)

Two more days! It looks like both Tiffany and Stef will be upset by Saturday!

Rebound romance? Guess not, Tiffany.

Well Tiff, Karma is a female dog. This should bring you back to your high school days.

Kip and Stef have been together since high school, right? His first serious girlfriend.

They can be difficult to detach from because they are “familiar” and familiar is comfortable and comfortable is easy.

However, as people grow and mature, they can grow apart with different interests or ideologies.

Kip has obviously grown more than Stef, in many ways. The question is, will he have the balls to end it with Stephani, or will he fall back into (familiar) old habits?

So predictable.

Whoops!

Right On Cue!

She deserves it, tbh.

Please don’t fight over a guy gals, that would be so humiliating.

Changed? Yeah right!

Ever notice how Sexy❤️Stef looks a lot like Ann❤️Eiffel? Seriously.

Uh oh, Sexy❤️Stef. He’s waiting for T.J. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Stefani: blind and still clueless.

Kip may not want to get back together, but he may want to take a break from the break for a little bit…

LOL! Thursday misdirection, although it certainly was reasonably foreseeable. This ought to be very interesting.

Does she really have to wear that cheerleading outfit all the time? Beyond stupid

Wait for the dishes getting broken in the kitchen!

This is going to turn out to be a big cat fight

I wonder if Kip’s brain will win out, or another part of him.

I really don’t see what is so great about Kip. He and Stef are a perfect set of one-dimensional bookends. They deserve each other.

It just dawned on me that “shug” is probably short for “sugar”, meant as an endearment, whether genuine or sarcastic. Sounds like it might be a Southern thing. Stephanie as a Southern belle makes a lot of sense to me.

Well, I called this happening yesterday!

Knew this was going to happen and they’ll leave without paying for the pie, double stiffing Tiff.

uuuggghhhh

Snicker

I am shocked, shocked I tells ya, of this plot twist…. said none of the commenters on this strip

This is a good thing, it forces Kip to make a decision about what he wants. If he doesn’t say anything and goes with Stef, Tiffany will have dodged a bullet with someone who would have cheated on her whit his ex on the firs occasion. Of course, if Kip doesn’t say anything, I wouldn’t mind if Tiffany will smash that cake on his face.

There’s a term for college-age women who wear cheerleading outfits every day: developmentally disabled.

So the story question is really, IMHO, whether as for Kip, he goes back to Stef, or takes up with Tiff; between Tiff and Stef, the question, and the humor is how this awkward situation rolls out, how, and who does what to whom and why. My money is he goes back to what he is used to, in spite of Stef’s remark she’s changed—she hasn’t really—and spurns Tiffany’s “golden” opportunity to steal him. Will pie’s be smushed? HMMM, too obvious, but misdirection is the theme of Luannverse.

Let’s see…I’ve dusted off my crystal ball and see at least one of the pieces of pie is not going to get eaten, but dropped or in some manner end up as a stain on someone’s clothes before this matter is settled.

Congrats to the many, many people who accurately predicted this plot development (I’m not sure something so easily foreseen even deserves to be labeled as a twist.) Still, let’s see if Kip lets Stef get away with unilaterally declaring the break over. Based on past character acts set up a similar way (like Tara jumping the fence at Luann’s daycare, or Shannon busting into TJ’s room to use his stuff) it may appear to set up for some pushback, but said pushback never occurs. But maybe this time I’m wrong.

I wonder if Tiff is going to serve some pie to Stef’s face, ala mode.

Who puts pie crust on the top of pecan pie?

Oh, God. Here we go again.

steff is nothing but the past Tiff reincarnated.

I don’t like where this is going.

Tiffany if you go after Kip, you will always be looking over your shoulder at who is after him, ~Steffanie and a lot of other girls. He is the QUARTERBACK! Blog Bucks now days.

Kip needs to grow a pair and tell Stef to take a real long walk off a very short pier.

Wake up Tiffany. You’re out of your league. Everyone Tiffany’s age needs to learn from that great sage Mike Jagger, “You can’t always get what you want. But if you try some time, you can get what you need.” And his name is Ox.

Coitus interruptus: a classic sitcom strategy.

Deja vu all over again!
