So is Luann about to lose her virginity?

Not surprising. The brother hasn’t even lost his yet, and he is engaged.

[Carnac the Magnificent]Three things Luann will say while left alone with Quill…[/CtM]

First thing I think of is the lyric from Rocky Horror:

I thought there’s no use getting into heavy petting
It only leads to trouble and seat wetting…

See, there’s where I point to subtlety as being the most you’re going to get.

Toni slipping up and saying “The Brad was delicious” at the dinner table with a far away smile on her face.

There’s no way he’s going to just come out and say it directly.

Same for me!

Exactly. Brad and Toni have been bumping boots for quite some time. Ohterwise he wouldn’t have been so pissed when the munchkin hid and his Special Time with Toni was disturbed.

WHAT musical clips?

So you DID listen to them!

Or, you didn’t notice that the Samuel French link had samples of the show-stopping tunes in Luann - Scenes in a Teen’s Life musical.

:Sigh: I don’t know WHAT you are talking about. :rolleyes:

Today’s strip shows Luann and Quill lying side by side on the bed… Need we ask what happens next? With Nancy nagging Luann to come to dinner?

I think that too. The phrase is just ridiculously useless, even as a euphemism. I’m 31 years old and I’m still not entirely sure what activities are included in “heavy petting.”

A American/British dictionary I own defines “petting” as “to snog +.” In other words, “kissing with territorial concessions.” :stuck_out_tongue:

So here’s the question: Should she lose it in the strip? I don’t mean in a moral sense, I mean would it derail the strip and the “tone” of it? I confess I haven’t followed it.

In today’s strip Luann is once again at home with Quill–parents absent. In the second panel, near the living room couch, Quill switches the lamp off. In the darkened last panel Luann says, “Hm. I’m gonna have to feel my way here…”
Three guesses what she wants to feel!

Minor nitpick which doesn’t really change anything…they’re not at Luann’s house. They’re in the prop room of (I assume) the school auditorium.

The thread got revived for this, but not for the recent Tiffany on Gunther action?

Well Gunther claims nothing happened, but I’m fairly certain that it did.

Except that Tiffany made it sound like nothing happened:

To be fair…this being the 'Dope and all. The title of the thread is about Luann losing her virginity, and I’m pretty sure Tiffany&Gunther (Tiffther? Gunthany? Yeah…Gunthany!) wouldn’t do that.

Where Tiffany is concerned, Nothing makes me think of what she has between her ears. :smiley:

To paraphrase RealityChuck from page one of this thread:

There will be NO SEX.
