Having the wedding at Montoni’s actually seems like a pretty good option right about now, as opposed to having their nuptials in front of Les’ house, under what will be a “canopy” of bare branches in a few weeks’ time.

Make Some Noise with the Pots and Pans
Aww, their first quarrel. Cayla has decided that now she’s gonna give Les shit about having to plan the wedding on her own, even though she did agree to “deal with all of the wedding plans“, and even though she declined at least twice to join Les on the Kilimanjaro trek.
The Coming Wedding
Yeah, as if Les isn’t looking forward to having an empty house at last. Too bad Cayla isn’t taking the hint. She’s so in love with Moore Manor that she’s decided she’ll have her wedding there. Well, that’s a damn sight better than having it at You-Know-Whoni’s.
The Wedding Un-planner
I suppose that the reader is expected to chuckle at Les’ lackadaisical approach to wedding planning: typical last-minute male thing, amirite? But Cayla’s reaction could serve as a response to any number of instances of TB’s own sloppy storytelling, e.g., Summer in April of her senior year: …”I’m going with my dad to check out a college this weekend.” “Seriously? That just occurred to you?”

Welcome to Westview, where every experience, regardless of how exciting or profound it may have been, is reduced to block-headed, witless remarks and stupid smirks. What a bunch of pathetic, soul-less cretins.
Don’t know if Epicus peeked ahead at today’s strip before posting that comment about yesterday’s, but it certainly holds true! Les is positively giddy to be back on his porch swing. Cayla’s excited too; in fact, in panel 3 she’s looks like she’s about to slide off her seat. When asked to share the “wisdom” they’ve gained on their trip, naturally dad and daughter offer the most mundane, snarky comments about their experience. Whatever.
Note that Dan Messina (who never did respond to my email) gets a shout-out in the last panel. “Boon companion”? More like buffoon companion. I hope he appreciates his friend Tom Batiuk portraying him as a hapless twit.
