#724 – Amplify

I once read a novel in which the main character was in an area where he could smell foul rotting dead things. He was disturbed by the knowledge that in order for him to be smelling this, tiny particle of those objects were floating through the air and being inhaled into his olfactory system. That book has made a number of bad situations turn horrible for me. AAAAAAAAA! It’s in my head!!!

    I remember the Magic School Bus episode where they discussed smell.

    I only remember The Magic Schoolbus’s sound episode.

    Cyborg Biff was a great week.

  4. cretinlung says:

    Wasn’t that a Star Wars Rogue Squadron novel? I believe they were on Coruscant.

  5. greenimp says:

    more mechanical biff then cyborg biff surely? ( and yes there is a difference)

  6. Space Butler says:

    I can’t vouch for his “humanity” for sure, but I’m fairly certain that Biff isn’t an android.

    @Kurast: Dude maybe you don’t even read someone else’s posts? I keep asking you over here…where did you get your nickname from? Is it from the Diablo 2 game or is it from somewhere else? Thanks.

    I remember the Magic Schoolbus episode on digestion, when there was that kid who was orange because of some random snack he was eating all the time.

    Maybe Biff just got some cybernetic enhancements. Like a detachable nose and reversible knees….

  9. Unoriginality says:

    Dude, I know that book. Shadows of The Empire, right? It was Luke’s observation, and I have wanted to beat him senseless ever since I read that. THE SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED FOR ME BECAUSE OF HIM.

    Eat Carrots all Day long and your Skin turns orange too.

    maybe he looks once at a Comic and never again…

    I recently read a book where a scarred soldier and innocent English governess found love in a sewer where they were escaping from a malicious slave trader/war traitor.
    And you know what? I loved it. Loved it right up.

  12. MaskedMan says:

    I have children, AND I was once a sailor… I could have soooooo have used a detachable nose, so many times!

  13. PsychoDuck says:

    So what, Michael Jackson was a baby-sitter then?

    Oh that’s naaaaaaaaaaaaaaasty.

    The Duck Has Spoken.

  14. solar says:

    I wish I had a detachable nose that would be handy with all the nasal allergys i have

  15. r0b3rt says:

    Nose, eh? Try detachable ears. I’ll pay top buck for whoever manages to invent those.

  16. Tasha says:

    Poor Izual. I will tell you this much though: Diablo II ftw!

  17. MaskedMan says:

    Oh, by the way:

    Modular Biff week. :p

  18. Cari says:

    Does this comic remind anyone of the song “detachable penis?”

  19. lightsideluc says:

    I remember a book with that…
    Was star wars the bookyou read? Cause I remember a bit in one of the books where Luke makes a very, very similar comment.

  20. Mog of web says:

    So, my guess of the theme of this week is “Crazy things Biff can do”

  21. Indeed, it was “Shadows of the Empire” that some of ya’ll are thinking of. It was while they were in the sewers leading to Xixor’s castle. And, it wasn’t dead bodies that he was smelling, it was the “biological refuse” (for lack of a better term) of the inhabitants of Coruscant.

    In any case, the trip through “Cyborg Biff’s” body parts was enjoyable!

  22. MadDavid says:

    I think we could ALL use a detachable nose. It would also come in handy during cold and allergy seasons!

  23. uhh? says:

    Where did he put that nose hopefully the kids don’t get at it. *shuddder* Hey since he has no nose and he is baby sitting Biffs role is probally MJ!

  24. uhh? says:

    *role model*

  25. Kit-Kun says:

    I’m sitting here and I wonder. Who is Biff babysitting for? His sister? His sister-in-aw? Is he babysitting his own baby sister? A friend? And I’m sure you know how good a detachable nose would be at times. Lol.

  26. Kit-Kun says:

    P.S. Maybe he’s could even be babysitting his little brother.

  27. starseedjenny says:

    When I first saw this strip, I struggled to see how Biff’s detachable nose could help him play “got your nose”

    It took me a few views to understand that the thing is a diaper

  28. bghvgjdh says:

    …Ack, now I can’t stop thinking about that…
    THE CURSE, IT’S SPREADING!

  29. The Dustin says:

    @ the people at the top of the comments,
    I remember every Magic school bus episode…

  30. Marr965 says:

    @ Kit-Kun: Does Biff even have a family? Surely they all got wiped out with his childhood experiments with, I don’t know, the blender? “What happens if I put Daddy’s foot in the blender?” “He gets his foot chopped off and then gets gangreen, Biff dear.”

  31. Zero says:

    I really have to wonder who would think that letting Biff babysit their kids is a good idea.

  32. gelugon2105 says:

    Technically, your olfactory is at the rear/middle of your head, so detaching the nose won’t help. But I see that Biff has a plate spot-welded into his face, so no prob.

  33. horsefreak says:

    I first thought it was a “got your nose” gone horribly wrong. haha

  34. DaemonThanatos says:

    …i’m going to have to agree with this…I used to babysit one of my nephews…the stench alone could kill an elephant. Then again…I was worse as a baby…mine could kill the entire population.

  35. DaemonThanatos says:

    …i’m not proud of this…but i AM proud of the fart that cleared a church building (fair size, too) in under 5 seconds.

  36. SurveySays says:

    Valuable 4 Biff, horribly tramatizing for the baby.
