I do tend to stay in the shower an awfully long time sometimes… it just feels soooooo good on my back. I haven’t had a back massage since I was like 12 except maybe once so I have an achey back… I honestly think if I got one I’d have a lot more energy and feel a lot better.

I wonder how long Biff was in there to cause that o.0

Biff needs to buy some common sense

If you look back to the elevator comic, the one I’m not going to bother to link, you’ll se that Biff is an ink drawing, so he’s not really eroding, just running a bit.

@DEC; You’d have to define your standard waterfall, before I’d chance it… Angel Falls, for instance, would smash you before it eroded you… And Niagra… Well, there’d be no knowing which got you first - The drowning, the erosion, or the smashing weight of water. OTOH, a nice stream cascade might be just the ticket.

Best shower, I say, is standing under a waterfall. If you could get that amount of water at right temperatures, that would be great.

Hey it’s not like he has to worry he has very good regenerative abilities. Or a closet full of extra body parts.

hold on everyone… it doesn’t even say that that’s biff! it could be a model of biff made out of something else. so maybe biff doesn’t actually erode that fast.

@J.R.; I’m referring to a specific media/grit size, one with which I’ve had the most experience. Your points are well-made, but I don’t have sufficient experience to guess at the cutting rate of other grades and types of blasting media.

Yeah, I knew diamond would eventually succumb, but only in timeframes that even Biff would find silly.

BTW: IME, diamond sharpeners don’t fail so much due to loss of cutting edges, as they do to actual loss of the diamond chips which become dislodged over time, and due to the cutting surfaces packing up with microscopic metal shavings.

Spaceman Spiff, are you a member of G.R.O.S.S. as well?

At least he hasn’t turned into a prune.

I sort of had a sandbox as a kid… A ‘ghetto’ one, as the hip kids would call it nowadays. It was a tractor tire with sand in it.

…Is Biff made of dirt?
