I never really get sandwiches that require toothpicks. Sandwiches I buy usually come with potato chips. I like putting a layer of chips on the sandwich and eating it that way. It’s pretty humorous when someone doesn’t see me put the chips on there. The look on their face when I take the first bite and it makes a loud crunch is always pretty funny.

And again we see Biff’s disturbingly lonk tongue.
…But how did the toothpick get EMBEDDED in his tongue?

There is only one solution to the toothpick. Fire! It cures all.

at least Biff can get a tongur ring now.
I got an idea for friday’s comic. It is Biff sitting in a little red wagon (Radio Flyer), and he has a scuba air tank, and the caption could be along the lines of “After hearing about the car that runs on compressed air, Biff was quick to find an alternative”

i used to take the toothpicks off those and keep them
most i had was 5…wonder where they went…

I work for a deli and sometimes we do sampling… You would be surprised at the number of people who never consider the possibility of there being a toothpick in a sample to hold it together… even when the toothpick is sticking out the top. ._.?

There was an ad for TV Where a woman takes sandwich with chips in it,Kinda funny tough.

Ohmygod! I love haing crisps with my ham sandwich, cheese n’ onion are the greatest ^_^

Did his eyebrows get thicker or is it just me?

My husband and I both are fans of the potato chip layer on sandwiches. Particularly essential on tuna. We refer to this strata as “extra beetles”. This came about when he was making sandwiches and asking how I wanted mine when I was in the next room. Thinking I was not listening he said, “Do you want extra beetles?”. I declined at the time, but that was before they had turned into potato chips…
Toothpick sandwiches drive me nuts. I never know if one is supposed to remove before eating, causing the sandwich to shift in an unruly fashion, or leave in place and eat around, risking a frill up the nostril or the circumstance that occured to poor Biff.

I like smashpro’s comic idea. How about this one?
Biff is walking around in the yard with a scythe and the caption says: Biff thinks of people he dislikes when doing the yardwork.
ratboy’s right; his tongue is long!

I swallowed a toothpick once at a party. I had just taken a bite of a wrap (held together with a toothpick I didn’t see) when someone came up to me. I quickly swallowed before chewing, and the toothpick went down sideways! It hurt! I had a very anxious moment. Luckily, it was only a half toothpick. My doctor said not to worry, it would “probably pass”. I watched for a week, but I didn’t see it leave.

Well, at least he’s getting more fiber in his diet via a toothpick.
Does anyone know why delis insist on using toothpicks with plastic frill all over one end?
June 7th, 2007 at 9:24 am
Chris, you made this comic at the perfect time, i had a cavity filled yesterday and while the dentist was giving me the shots that make your mouth feel better he slipped and the needle plunged into my tongue, it hurt like hell and i looked kinda like biff with it going through my tongue =P

Biff has vindicated my paranoia of toothpicks… Now I can tell everyone I’m not just a crazy person! Yay!
Oddly Frozen: Ouch! Hope you feel better soon.
June 7th, 2007 at 9:53 am
Is that the same type of sammich that he used liquid nitrogen on?
June 7th, 2007 at 11:45 am
Ouch! I see that Biff has, yet again, forgotten the apparent dangers of eating improperly.
I sometimes think that mice could use those sword-shaped toothpicks as real swords.

Wait, so this proves that biff really is part frog! I never noticed that! we know he has an amphibian heritage, and this long tongue must be because of that! its all so simple now. Wait, so the eyebrows must mean he is part fly? His mother was a frog and his father was a fly? That’s gotta be difficult.

That’d Hurt.
I disagree with Brent.
It’s there for comic value.
Duh!!
^^

biff in pain now

Now I’m hungry for a cold meatloaf sandwich with potato chips in it.
One thing I learned as a little kid: you can’t put the potato chips in your sandwich when you make it in the morning, or they won’t be at all crispy by lunchtime.
June 7th, 2007 at 8:31 pm
i had a ham and muenster sandwich for dinner with chips on it, and a sandwich isn’t complete without a keiser roll

mmm I think it’s so that people notice the toothpick and don’t end up like Biff XD
June 7th, 2007 at 9:33 pm
Aww, the toothpick took away his giant mouth lines! I expected there to be either a huge mouth or some lines sticking out at the edges…
I guess it’s just the magic of toothpicks
June 7th, 2007 at 9:59 pm
The chips in sandwiches reminds me of putting French fries in hamburgers, and getting weird looks.
June 8th, 2007 at 9:29 am
We always put potato chips on our bologna sandwiches, just the way our mama taught us! Now I’m hungry for one…
June 9th, 2007 at 11:55 am
If you’re ever lacking potato chips, you can substitute corn chips. Ah, ye olde crunchy goodness…

I once had my lip pierced in a horrible barbacue shishkabob accident that the neighbors all still whisper about. I was carrying one from the grill when I was attacked by lone hornet assassin, I duck to avoid him only to ram the pointy end of the stick through my bottom lip. This caused me to stumble backwards knocking over the grill, burning myself, bystanders and pretty much igniting the whole deck. Fire department was called, spent the rest of the summer rebuilding the deck.

All Biff needs right now is a $200 hand held laser. A: To burn the toothpick away. B: To cauterize the wound. Of course, he might want some novacaine to go along with that.

looks like he’s got the Gene Simmons tongue there.
July 16th, 2007 at 11:58 pm
ow…
August 20th, 2007 at 11:27 pm
Chicken chips with vegemite on white bread.
‘Nuff said.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:03 pm
Mmm, chips…
November 15th, 2007 at 4:27 pm

Whenever I (rarely) get food with a pick in it, I am always freaked about eating the pick by accident.
We went to this steak house recently, adn my dad accidently had two picks in his steak, while I found only one in my burger. I had to ask the waiter about that…
February 13th, 2008 at 10:37 pm
…..So Biff is part amphibian and part crash dummy?
February 19th, 2008 at 4:13 am
Salt and vineger crisps (potato chips to you amerians) in an egg and cress sandwich is the best
If you’re in a country that doesn’t do salt and vinegar you don’t know what you’re missing

Man, that looks fun.
June 12th, 2009 at 9:31 am
I personally take the toothpicks out and chew them for a while instead of eating the sandwich with them in.
