#279 – Wind

I like going to camp grounds and forest preserves and the such. The bathrooms at those types of places can be very frightening though. Sometimes it’s not what other visitors have done in there before you it’s the hundreds and hundreds of bugs. I think I have to go take a shower now.

    Portable toilets.

    I was at a rock festival last weekend. Imagine 80k people using portable toilets for a long weekend. They got cleaned and a half hour later they were just nasty again. But such are the woes of a festival.

  2. Pixilated

    Ewwwww, this gives me shivers just thinking about it. I feel so sorry for Biff.

  3. Brett

    Aw man! It’s everywhere! It’s in my melon wounds!

  4. Bob

    ugh! for some reason, i can see biff swimming in it and passing out due to the lock on the door being UNDER the “water” level

  5. Edd

    That toilet looks quite clean compared to what there was at download festival, where even the outsides were covered in strange things…

  6. CojoinedCows

    At least we men can go into the woods to take a leak. Poor women need to use those… THINGS all the time. :(
    You have my sympathy, ladies.

  7. sole

    Chris I must say that you have a great comic and that I can’t wait for all the Biffs to come!

  8. Hyshinara

    EEEEEEEWW!!!!! D:

    (and Dooley, by chance, did you go to Graspop Metal Meeting?
    if so, i was there too XD )

  9. Kuroiten

    Heh. Imagine a lot of Society for Creative Anachronism people using port-a-potties for a weekend. And this is after days of eating medieval foods, which…well, let’s say the results aren’t pleasant.

    Oh, and ew.

  10. AwesomeAud

    Chris, you’ve just revived some of my worst nightmares.

    Can I join you in that shower?

  11. geeklord

    To imagine the untold horrors of what must be inside that thing…

    *eye twitches*

  12. Seraphine

    Biff should install a drive-up window and sell fast food.

    Hey!

    I just wanted to let you know that I literally just spent most of my one free day this week getting my addicted to yet another webcomic. Genius, man. You’re a riot.

    I don’t remeber what other comic I was reading linked me here, but I’m glad it did. Maybe it was quesitonable content. or dr. mcninja. I’m not really sure. But you’ve got talent. I’ve enjoyed reading.

    Keep up the good work.

    It was propably QC. There’s a Biff ad in the Project Wonderful box at the moment.
    I’m still waiting for MY Project Wonderful adbox code, btw. For over a month now… :(

    *Shudder* That brings back the memories of my dad flying model airplanes in the middle of huge fields with no running water for miles. The only porta-potty had a hornet’s nest in it and smelled like god knows what. I only came when I had to.

  16. Roadkiller

    Actually, I’m with Kuroiten in the SCA. Really, they aren’t too horrible if they get cleaned regularly. At one SCA event in my area, Porta’s are the only bathroom facilities for ~1500 people for ten days. Yay Lilies! For bugs, all you really need to do is look up and down; 95% of the biting/stinging bugs you’ll encounter in a Porta will either be on the floor or the roof.

    Actually, I think that’s happened before at Lilies with someone in it. Might have been Pennsic though. Bah, don’t remember.

    Still, I use them as little as possible, personally.

  17. Ghostviper

    i dont use portapotties…. they are… unspeakably disgusting…. and smelly…
    on an unrelated note… did you have to pay for your own ad? cause that would be rediculous

  18. Blargen-Vargen

    I really feel sorry for Biff in this comic D:

  19. Radical Edward

    Yuck…My shower tickles me, so I can’t use it.

  20. random person

    i remember the last time i saw one of these……
    some guy was in one for half an hour o.o
    so people started ramming into the door

    and port-o-showers o.o
    imagine what it would be like inside….*shudder*

  21. Angel

    Woo, finally reached the newest comic!
    Chris it would be awesome if you could add a way to go directly to an older comic via a dropdown menu so I could show my favorites to my friends and co-workers. :D

  22. Rhokk

    I agree, this website really needs an archive page..

  23. Brett

    I=Rhokk, btw…

  26. dragonbrad

    i hate porto potties, i will not go 2 in them because i feel like some kind of mutated potty monster will grab me. oh for all the celebraters happy almost 4 of july

  27. multibleannurisaims

    I work in a chemical refinery, and as a high level contractor, i cant say the name but the itintials are Don’t Over Work…. anyways keeping yourself away from chemicals is very important…. I did not realise how much so until i read what somone had wrote inside the porta-john. It said ” All personal releases longer than six inches must be hand lowered to avoid chemical splash.” To whoever penned that statement….. friggin cudos man…. Cudos.

  28. Miranda

    I have to thank project wonderful as I would have never read it otherwise. Looking forward to ordering the book soon.

  29. colin

    that happened to a friend of mine TWICE. only the first time, it was less the wind, and more me and another friend barreling into it.
    I’m surprised he’s still my friend.

  30. Madness

    Lol Biff.

  31. Knife Knut

    I hope he has a knife to cut his way out with!

  32. Crazy Lady

    That was so gross. ^^; That would be MY luck. Ick! Poor Biff…. Still totally funny, though. Not as bad as one I saw. I once had to pee really bad, so I walked to the cursed potty and at 3ft away I could see “crud” on the handle were someone decided to be undoubtedly disqusting. Never used one since (didn’t use that one either. I chose the woods. Bring on the snakes rather than that!)

  33. Malachite Dragon

    OH GOD. I’ve lost my appetite forever. Forever forever forever forever. X_X

    Oh dear god I’ve got corn all over me! I didn’t even have corn for dinner last night! Funny stuff man, funny stuff. My dad told me some funny stories about porta johns back when he worked on bridge construction. One day the cleaning crews were cleaning out the porta john at his job site and almost all the crew was waiting for them to finish, you know, use the thing before it gets completely filthy. Well, just as they finish up, some new guy there cuts in front of everybody and locks himself in the porta john. You don’t cut in front of about 10 people waiting to use the john. Dad said all ten of them there picked up the porta john and slung it to the ground door down. He said it took that guy 20 minutes to get out of there and he was covered in that blue chemical stuff from his armpits to his boots.

  35. Oddly Frozen

    this reinds me of that one part of that one episode of family guy…….

  36. Ben

    We did this to a kid in cadets once, tho I will add that he did deserve it.

  37. Darkpheonix XIII

    I know a lot of people who deserve it, but i’d chain it shut.

  38. Elkian

    Who watched the dirty jobs where Mike took a day off?

  39. houstonwolf

    What I’ve done is back a car up to the door so it holds it shut. Funny stuff.

  40. Marr965

    I do re-enactment, and the last Festival of History I went to, me and my mum got out of the car to use the Portaloos one last time before the long journey home. I looked like someone else had had the same idea, because in my loo, there was a poo the size of a salami… :(

  41. Roger

    It’s times like this when you’re thankful that you have a penis. :D

    Last event I went to, someone made a sport out of toppling the portaloos over with people still inside. The results were hilarious, but I sorta pitied the poor fellows inside. One girl came out with a turd on her shoulder.

  42. Hornswaggler

    Ya know, this happened to Chester, from Linkin Park. XD He was usin’ a porto-pottie, and the other guys started rocking it to freak him out, and it ended up tipping. XD Poor guy.

  43. the walrus

    Silly Biff! That is why you andhor your porta potty before entering.
