* AxesAtSchool: Brought a bow and arrow into a kindergarten classroom to show off to Luann's daycare class. Luann was punished for allowing it (as she hadn't even bothered getting permission from the school principal), but Tara didn't get in any trouble at all. Tara's KarmaHoudini status was a case of severe ValuesDissonance for anyone familiar with the increasing number of shootings in American schools nowadays, and the resulting No Tolerance policy towards ''any'' weapon being brought onto a school campus.

* JerkAss: He's pretty much constantly rude and selfish.
* KindheartedCatLover: Maybe. For some reason cats love him, and while he'd never admit it, the feeling seems to be mutual.
* NeverMyFault: To hear Les tell it, everyone is always against him and he never gets a chance. He doesn't seem to consider that his own behaviour has anything to do with that.

[[folder:Brad]]
* TheAllegedCar: His perpetually worked-on Chevy Nova. Though the constant maintenance finally came in handy against Dirk’s muscle car.
* BreakoutCharacter: Became the second main protagonist in the strip once he began his journey towards becoming a firefighter.
* BurgerFool: Brad is this not once but twice with a job at Weenie World. The second time, he has to deal with Ann Eiffel as his boss after being laid-off from his career as a firefighter. This is soon averted when Brad returns to the station and his best friend T.J. takes his place and makes Ann Eiffel's life a living hell by being much better at the job than her.
* CharacterDevelopment: The biggest example in the entire strip. He went from a potato-chip-munching layabout into a heroic firefighter, and from a CovertPervert staring at his neighbor Diane through the window, to a dedicated FamilyMan.
* DoggedNiceGuy: Towards Diane and later Toni. He remained sympathetic most of the time though.
* FamilyMan: He absolutely adores his wife Toni, and loves her niece Shannon a lot more than she does. That being said, he does have a severe problem with disciplining Shannon.
* FireMenAreHot: Used by T.J. and Toni on various occasions. Luann, being his sister, doesn’t see the appeal.
* HandsOffParenting: Unfortunately he lets his niece Shannon do whatever she wants. Nothing she has done has ever earned so much a reprimand from him.
* LoveMakesYouDumb: He acted this way around both his love interests, Diane and Toni, frequently pretending to know about things he's actually clueless about, trying to dress the way they'd like, acting the way he feels they'd like, and randomly stuttering nonsense ("Hey auto go show Toni together with me!").
* OnlyFriend: To T.J., and the reverse is true as well. It’s implied that he could have a wider social circle if he cut TJ loose, but the two are inseparable and nobody wants to befriend Brad if it means having to deal with TJ as well.
* OutOfFocus: Once he and Toni got married, he suffered a major loss of stories centered on him. Since 2016, he’s mainly served as a vehicle for keeping Shannon in the strip.
* ParentalSubstitute: to Shannon, since her father has effectively disappeared from the strip.
* TheRival: To Dirk, and vice-versa. It didn’t help that at the time Toni was acting as MasterOfTheMixedMessage towards them both about her actual feelings for Brad.
* TheSlacker: What he was before his CharacterDevelopment. He mostly just sat around eating junk food until he was inspired by the firefighters on 9/11.

When Luann eventually took the hint and simply didn't invite her to something(a lingerie party she knew Bernice would ''never'' want to attend), Bernice threw a tantrum and stated that she expects to be invited to everything regardless, so that she can make her choice (and by extension, her negative opinion) known to everyone.[[note]]She's also a {{hypocrite}} about the matter, as when the time came for her to have an event that Luann had no interest in, Bernice was perfectly happy to [[https://www.gocomics.com/luann/2023/01/05 keep Luann in the dark rather than extend an invite.]][[/note]] She also took that same buzzkill attitude towards the university student body as a whole when serving as an RA. Although keeping order in the dorm is admittedly an RA's job, Bernice took things a bit far (knocking on doors to do bed checks, enforcing a curfew on weekends, physically separating couples ''a la'' [[Film/HarryPotterAndTheOrderOfThePhoenix Dolores Umbridge]], etc.). Commenters on ''Blog/TheComicsCurmudgeon'' eventually nicknamed her "the Dormenführer."

* SmittenTeenageGirl: While in high school, Luann was always utterly ''obsessed'' with one boy or another. One of the collected editions of the strip was even titled "Boys, Bras, Braces, [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment and Boys]]." Finally having a boyfriend helped her to outgrow this mindset, as she has been much less "boy-crazy" since breaking up with Quill during college.
* WantsAPrizeForBasicDecency: She sometimes has problems with this. For example, she once made a big deal about the Christmas gifts she was giving to Bernice and Delta. Bernice's gift was a giant empty cardboard box, which Luann called a "Big Box of 'Sorry'", as in Luann was apologizing for how self-centered she had acted in the past. Delta's gift turned out to be... Delta's sweater, which Luann had borrowed and never returned. Bernice and Delta were less than impressed, and Luann was left dumbfounded as to why her friends weren't more grateful for [[SarcasmMode these thoughtful Christmas presents.]]

* StalkerWithACrush: Towards Piro, to the point of abusing her authority as RA so she could steal his phone number out of Tiffany's phone.

NiceGirl: After her eventual CharacterDevelopment where she forced herself to start thinking about others, at least.
*ThisLoserIsYouThisLoserIsYou: Her original premise was as a sort of every-teen that parodied the foibles of teenage girls mercilessly. She's acquired some maturity and good qualities since then, but she's still pretty messy and hapless.

* FallenPrincess: After having a downright ridiculously easy time in high school, she finds college much harder. First she is unable to make any friends, then her father gets taken in by a GoldDigger (who makes him cut way down on the money he provides Tiffany with), and the strain of it all makes her gain a lot of weight. On the plus side, she does form some new friendships with Luann and her circle.
