#673 – Pressure
I currently have a 30 mile drive home from work. One day as I was leaving I thought to myself “Hey, you should stop and use the bathroom.” I had a bunch of stuff with me and didn’t want to go all the way back to my desk or bring it into the bathroom so I skipped it. We had an awesome snowstorm that day and it took me 3 and a half hours to get home. I passed many interesting looking bushes at 5 miles per hour. Now I always stop before leaving work whether I think I need to or not.

Interesting how the two large rocks are positioned….

I hate long no-stopping car rides, on highways on the edge of somewhere (where nowhere begins) where the only pull-off is a truck run-away lane at the bottom of a hill. you wish that you hadn’t had that third coke.

I travel to a lot of random countries so I make it a habit of always hitting the bathroom whether I need to or not, cause I have no idea when, where, or how decent the next bathroom might be.
I’ve been to a couple truck stop bathrooms in rural China and they are not fun.

He’s stuck between a rock and a hard place.

He’s Biffman. And he can pee in space.
…I apologize for paraphrasing the punchline of another webcomic.
January 8th, 2009 at 6:45 am
Why can’t there be ever another person seen with Biff, this webcomic is meant for Biff, I know, but can there be once when we see an outsider or a one-time character.
(The squid does not count as a character)

The only way this could have been improved is with an inclusion of the eyebrows in their own little components. Think about it, though; with eyebrows like that, wouldn’t they clog the visor?

Grandma always tells us to go before we leave for a long trip, like to Springfield or something. But I never go when I’m at school, so I have to wait till I get home. And why does Alpha Centauri sound fimilear?
January 8th, 2009 at 7:14 am
Alpha Centauri is the brightest star in the southern constellation of Centaurus and an established binary star system, Alpha Centauri . To the unaided eye it appears as a single star, whose total visual magnitude identifies it as the third brightest star in the night sky.
- no Im not that smart… I just used wikipedia

So … he just opened his fly in space? So … his space suit has a fly???
Amazing man, that Biff.
I think I would have tried to hold it until Sirius. Seriously. I mean, I hear they’ve got bathroom attendants and everything.

Haha awesome comic Chris. Been ploughing through Biff the past 3 days and i must say it is a great webcomic.

@Groggy – Thanks!

Careful with always going to the bathroom whether you need to or not – you may end up developing a very-real form of incontinence called “urge-based incontinence,” where you end up over-training your bladder to release whenever there’s a toilet available, and as a result you get caught in a vicious cycle. It’s one of the root causes of “overactive bladder syndrome.”

@ carrie: Alpha Centauri, most of all, is the nearest star system. It is where the plans for the destruction of the Earth are on display.

Dear Biff, Hopefully you aren’t the “Last Starfighter” hiding behind those space balls, you should proudly take aim at the Ko-Dan Empire! You all remember Centauri and his recruitment video game? Biff must be heading home for some R&R…

I always take a precautionary bathroom break before I go anywhere or before I go into a movie or long class.
January 8th, 2009 at 11:47 pm
In space, no one can hear you pee…
I have young kids. Bathrooms before leaving is habitual and mandatory. The benefit is that I’m NEVER the one rushing into the office building from our car pool.

Typically Biff, he has no toilet in his rocket!
January 9th, 2009 at 7:12 am
BIFF’S IIIIINNNN SPAAAAAAACE!!
awesome.
January 9th, 2009 at 12:01 pm
Fantastic.
At first the drawing confused me, it looked a bit “Freudian” with the twin rocks and the long shape in there…
January 9th, 2009 at 9:10 pm
Haha Seems that Biff is putting that free Spaceship to good use then.
Nobody likes those long, seemingly infinite car journeys

@fluffy:
Oh! Thanks for another “random-interesting-fact-to-impress-someone-with-in-the-middle-of-a-conversation-going-back-and-forth-with-’Hey did you know…’-questions” I can use!

…Well, I don’t think anyone has mentioned it.
Alpha Centauri is also an old video game, based in the 2100’s
