#567 - Anticipation

I grabbed someone else’s shopping cart at the grocery store once. It’s funny how when I looked down and saw unfamiliar items my first thought wasn’t that I had the wrong cart, it was more along the line of “I don’t remember liking that cereal…”

Stumble Biff!

    Oh dear… It’s bad enough that Biff insisted on bringing his exploding guinea pig on vacation, but now he’s gone and gotten it mixed up the baggage of an innocent citizen. Something tells me that an ambulance will be visiting that hotel sometime soon, and for once, Biff won’t be directly responsible.

    The Duck Has Spoken.

    I wonder if he brought that thing from the package.

  3. Torg

    I would pay to be there when the TSA tries to hand-check Biff’s baggage.

  4. Torg

    Wait…what could possibly make Biff need body armor? He’s survived being cut in half! He apparently survived the destruction of the Northern Hemisphere!

  5. Chivalrybean

    Proof that there is SOMEONE else in The World of Biff… or at least a alternate personality.

    So was the bag the same make/model as Biff’s or did he forget what his bag looked like and just grabbed the one he thought was his?

    Just because you may survive 30 blows to the head by a mace doesn’t mean you would want to go through it again

  8. trevor

    Didn’t biff take measures to ensure he knew which luggage bag was his? Oh well, comedy will sometime require illogical things, so I shouldn’t ask about it.

    Regarding your anecdote, I can assure you that it’s even weirder when you do it WHILE YOU’RE WORKING. Working in a grocery store, I’ve not made that mistake once, but if it happened while doing re-shops (putting items customers didn’t want or that they left behind back on the shelves), it would be mighty akward.

  10. Torg

    @trevor: He did: comic 180. That might actually explain why he thought he needed body armor to open his baggage.

  11. Ryan

    Perhaps Biff needs to invest in some tags to identify his luggage?

  12. Heinrich

    @psychoduck: i think it would take more than an exploding guinea pig to make biff require body armor. like i think there might not even be ambulances left to show up if/when biff’s luggage shows up.

  13. Garrett Williams

    Just because he’s survived being cut in half doesn’t mean body armor can’t make it hurt less.

    I bet Biff just packs his bag as if everything he packs could fit into a Black Hole… Or uses a temporary black hole to pack. I feel sorry for whomever is covered in all of Biffs belongsings… save his body armor and small cartoonish hammer.

  15. brickface

    No, But at least he’s learned from something

  16. Jackson

    I love the suggestion of unseen terrors in this one.

  17. Zege

    I feel sorry for the person who got Biff’s bag. What could he be keeping in there that requires a hammer and body armor to defend himself with?

  18. Speakerblast

    Its a crazed psychiatrics patient! :O

    he needed the hammer to test their reflexes by hitting them on the knee!

    Doctor Biff :P

  19. Krasno

    I wonder what did Biff keep in that bag that made it necessary to wear body armor in order to open *shivers*

  20. Mac

    I’ve been reading these for quite some time now, and I’ve gotta say the implications of having another person get their hands on Biffs luggage made me laugh so hard… One of the top ten Biff comics for me.

  21. no name

    Maybe the other person in Biffland is named Ffib and is the exact opposite of Biff.

  22. Halo Chief

    @ No Name: so the other person is as boring as possible?

  23. trevor

    Remember that the comic says that the body armor is neccessary.

  24. starseedjenny

    Yayyyyyyyy I was right about mixups week

  25. no name

    @ Halo Chief - I guess so. And has really short eyebrows.

  26. Pom Rania

    How come he’s not wearing any eye protection them? Oh well, he HAS shown a ridiculous lack of sense when it comes to stuff like that.

  27. Mr toast

    @ Halo Chief- well that guys life is about to become a lot less boring

  28. MadDavid

    As usual, Biff is worried about the wrong thing.

    I mean, If *I* were on the same planet as Biff, I would *deffinitely* spring for body armor.

    “Does the other person have a mallet?” is a much bigger question

  29. Tyler

    I had a similar experience.
    One day, we were shopping at Toys ‘R’ Us, for reasons undisclosed.
    I was having a fun time with a rubber ball, and it just so happened to hop into a shopping cart.
    Needless to say, it was quite an awkward moment when the man saw me reaching into his cart.

  30. BlueDragon

    Perhaps his Gungerlock from comic #4 in in there?

  31. deviled

    he was going hit it biff

  32. El pinguino bilingue

    Its a bunch of barrels and a giant monkey

  33. speearr

    This was very nicely captioned…….. I wonder what’s inside his bag?

  34. Amake

    So there’s pretty definitely one other person in the world. . . now if we could only ever see them. :)

  35. Ian

    Ahaha…this one is up there with the Milk and Cereal Sling shot..good one Chris.
