#586 - Starry
It’s a sad day when you realize you have worn out the elastic in a pair of underwear. There are some bits of clothing that should be upgraded before they get to that stage. Socks fall into this same category. When you get to the point that you have a toe sticking out, it means you overshot the expiration date by at least a month.

Now this is an awkward situation… Wait, why’s he pulling the underwear over his head in the first place? Methinks Biff uses underwear in a way we mortals shall never understand…
The Duck Has Spoken.

This is very true. I feel like a buy underwear and socks almost weekly, and yet never have enough.

Ya I used to have this problem with underwear, then I just stopped changing them regularly and wallah problem solved.

Apparently, he also forgot to put on his underwear before putting on his shirt.

That’s…. that’s really strange, Monsieur Hallbeck.

Wait… since he put on his underwear on his head… what about his pants? That’s gotta be uncomfortable and I’m fortunate enough to have a lot of underwear (and know how to use them) but unfortunately: I don’t like a lot of them… since my mother usually buys my stuff…

Um, ok, interesting.
Kinda like when you realize that there’s a hole in your underwear.. XDD

What… the… ffff……

I think that because he d put his pants on first, it threw off his whole “dressing rhythm”, hence him trying to get them on over his head.
I knw I’m the same what if I put my left shoe on first, I have this hard time getting the right on one properly. My dressing rhythm gets messed up.
Oh, and Chris, the word is VOILA, not WALLAH.
September 9th, 2008 at 5:06 am
same way*, I meant to say.
September 9th, 2008 at 6:08 am
Doing things in the wrong order week!
September 9th, 2008 at 7:06 am
so i totally think these comics make my college life WAYYY better haha…its good to wake up to…not so much the alarm clock buzzing telling me that my 7:30 class is in 10 minutes

Chris, I love Biff, and, as of this morning, so does my 2-year-old daughter. I was reading the today’s comic and she walked up and got in my lap to “look at pictures on computer.”
I said, “This is Biff.” She said, “Biff hiding!” She sat, attentive, in my lap for 15 or so comics.

@Charlie Trotter - Awesome.

Nnnnnope, couldn’t think up an alternate caption before reading the real one. Maybe tomorrow…?
By the way, WTF.

I think, compared to some other examples of Biff physics we’ve seen, pulling underwear (or even pants) on over one’s head is comparatively plausible.

My mom has a picture of me, my brother and my sister with underpants on our heads. We’re apparantly finding the whole thing really funny.
September 9th, 2008 at 2:16 pm
Maybe Biff’s hiding his face out of shame at his mix-up?
Definitely looking like out-of-order week.
September 9th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
Look a little closer at the positioning of the underwear: even when they somehow get to where they are going, they will be upside-down anyway. I declare, for Biff’s sake, Commando Tuesday.

“Biff was discouraged to find that his virtual reality helmet did not work.”
Thats the best I could come up with on such short notice.
This is why Chris is the one with the website.

@Speakerblast - I try to make it look easy but it’s all an illusion!
September 9th, 2008 at 3:15 pm
“…first, then…” week. or just doing stuff out of order week.
September 9th, 2008 at 3:57 pm
So it is out of order week!
I smell pun…or…whatever you want to call it!
September 9th, 2008 at 4:15 pm
“I said, “This is Biff.” She said, “Biff hiding!” She sat, attentive, in my lap for 15 or so comics.”
That’s the cutest thing i’ve heard all day

My socks always wear a hole through the heel before I get a hole in the toe. If I wore tube socks I guess that wouldn’t happen but I can’t stand it when the seam doesn’t line up, so at best they’d only last twice as long. I just can’t pass up an opportunity to discuss my socks.

@no name,is your name a reference to Gundam Wing?
September 9th, 2008 at 8:27 pm
huh? no.
September 10th, 2008 at 4:50 pm
should be,that show was cool…..
September 12th, 2008 at 11:36 am
Do I detect a shade of the shape of the arms of Ali again here?
@ flashback: Maybe Chris meant not to confuse those who might be left wondering what the heck ‘voy-la’ means. Which in Spanish would mean ‘I go the,’ a phrase fittingly obtuse for this particular Tuesday.
