#554 - Famished

When I was a kid we came home one day to find that the dog had trashed the house chewing up slippers and such. It was very unlike her. Turns out we forgot to feed her before we went out for the day. Apparently that kind of a thing will make a dog lose her mind.

Stumble Biff!

  5. Just Ryan

    Our dog does that all the time. If we leave for the day, there’s about a 70% chance that, when we come home, she’ll have rifled through the garbage and strewn it across the kitchen and living room. What’s weird is we feed her at 7pm every day, and even on days when we leave, then come back before feeding time, she’ll still go through the garbage. We’ve basically gotten into the habit of either taking out the garbage before we leave, or putting it on the counter or somewhere she won’t be able to reach.

    My iguana went berserk on the houseplants one day she had no food. She didn’t eat any but she ripped them apart, tore them from the pots and ate a liberal amount of dirt. Iguanas like the taste of dirt. When I came home she was in a hole she had dug in one of the now vacant pots.

    Yay, I made it! Started reading the archives four days ago and just broke through! :D

    Busted up several times through… Jacket Repair… wow.

    Adding this to list of regular reads; keep up the odd work!

    Looks like Biff’s living room…is toast.

    Sorry, I can’t resist a good pun. Unfortunately I can’t resist the bad ones either.

    My favorite part is the toaster’s little bed!

    One time I had a dog who made me a sort of sculpture out of potatoes while I was at work. I walked in the door, and right there was this carefully stacked pile of potatoes, each one with a single set of teeth marks in it, from where he had carried it from the pantry to the front door.

    And Draco: All of my trash cans have some kind of secure lid. Most are the foot-pedal kind, turned so that the dog is unlikely to accidentally step on it (and besides they snap closed as soon as pressure is off the pedal). My current dog is otherwise great; she just likes to root through ALL trash cans — kitchen, bathroom, office, wherever.

    What does one feed a toaster anyway?

  13. Chris

    That’s so cool. A dog making a potato sculpture.

  14. Maria

    Uhm, toast? It will give it back unless it’s hungry… most toasters are rather modest …

  15. no name

    Lol. I love Biff’s expression. So… distressed.

  16. no name

    WAIT A MINUTE! BIFF HAS A JOB?!

  17. Chris

    @no name - Sure, there are lots of Biff at work comics. The last week of May was all work comics. :)

    Welcome, BlueKnot!

  19. randomperson

    Didn’t Biff mix snake DNA in the toaster in one of the comics?

  20. trevor

    Do the toaster and the breader get along?

  21. Erica

    Kinda sorta a new reader, I been a followin!! Biff is total awesomeness. He seems to be so brilliant that common sense is meaningless and bizarre genius is key. Heheheh overall he is a funny strange fellow.

    More strange than anything….
    yes, strange….
    But I loves it!

  22. the Scarf

    YES! RETURN OF THE TOASTER!!!!
    Thank you Chris! I’ve been asking for this on the forums for AGES.

    WOOHOOO!
    *feeds toaster*

  23. Reynard

    Yep, them toasters get *MEAN* if you don’t feed ‘em regularly…

  24. Cpt.Ziggy

    there is nothing I can say,just nothing.

  25. rachel

    I just read the entire archive of biff comics in one day. Not one sitting, mind you, but one day. I had followed them up to about 200 or so, but today i decided to go and read them all from the beginning.It was quite amusing. I have this now to add to a list of comics that I have to check on a daily basis, but it like this one so I supose that it won’t be TOO tedious.

  26. Chris

    Hey welcome all the new readers! :)

  27. brickface

    Does his breader get hungry too?

  28. EvilRay

    Great comic, found it recently and cant remember the last time Ive laughed so much. Just wondering if youve ever considered adding a random comic button, seems like it might fit the style of the strip?

  29. Chris

    @EvilRay - Thanks! There should be a random comic button at the top of the right-hand column. Just above the search box. I use it myself sometimes. :)

  30. pockafwye

    Among the best Biffs to date!

  31. Shanchan

    At least it didn’t piddle on the rug.

  32. starseedjenny

    Ahem.

    I believe you feed a toaster BREAD.

    Saying you feed it toast is like saying you feed a person…you know…

  33. trevor

    The toaster has to warm up his food with himself, convient eh?

  34. Kung

    I love this one.

    Generally made me me lol.
