Yes, the did go to high school together at Pitts high school. Brad and TJ are 4 years older than Luann (while I never seen TJ’s age explicitly stated), Greg said in an interview that Brad was 4 years older than Luann who was 13 when the strip started. TJ’s parents have been mentioned as father being Argentinian (either in prison and/or having returned to Argentina) and his mother being Italian (died in Italy). It was also implied he was left a lot of money. He did have a food truck that ‘accidentally’ blew up and made $60,000 from the insurance which was used to buy his partnership in the Fuse with the DeGroots and Al Gray (who became the third Fuse partner) who brought materials and hhelp needed to renovate the warehouse into the Fuse.
I use an iPad at times and the S/W developers seem to mess things up. It will not only substitute ’there’ for ‘their’ and v.v. at times, but it will also mess up other similar sounding words on occasion, like ‘hear’ and ‘here’. I have to go through my posts carefully before hitting “comment”. Also, tablets and phones have a keyboard issue when a character is not touched directly, they often tend to pick up the adjacent character. I can tell from looking at someone’s comment if they are using a tablet/
I also have a bigger issue with the S/W developers of GoComics (and their use of AI ???). Certain legitimate words are banned as assumed to be curse words, ethnic slurs, etc. One I run into when commenting on food is the word spi-ce or spi-ces. The plural used to be acceptable until recently and now banned. They are not the only words. Others have also complained about the problem. It is ridiculous to have to go through a lengthy post to find out what innocent word caused the posting to fail. This is another case of GIGO.
