Often times I have "used to like" something until some horrible event, or conversation, forever colored MY perception. Gives me the willies! I mean makes me uncomfortable. I mean ... oh damn.
And it didn't occur to Scott to point out that they'd have to keep their suits on the whole time? Nor did he ask why his boss is certain they had sex on the moon and therefore certain that they even went to the moon.
Scott, this three-times-a-week schedule is awesome!!! It seems like way *way* more BI -- which is terrific! I'm a long-time fan, and the long times between comics were always sad. This is a huge improvement -- keep up the good work!! You rock!!
i came across basic instructions purely by chance, almost immediately it was added to my favorites and now i check it everyday, going through the comments and archive. Brilliant stuff, keep up the excellent job!

Hahaha, this is brilliant. I will copy the link and spam to practically everyone I know!
Oh dang! That last box makes all the difference!
I love how Scott looks like he is going to be sick in 3. This was so good, I shared with friends on facebook.
LMAO
Ok, now I will never be able to watch Apollo 13 again without collapsing in a giggling fit.
HAHAHAHAHA!!!! You are brilliant!!!!
"We're go for manual insertion"-HA! just glad I don't know of any impressionable children who read this.
Hilarious! :D
I am just worried that I will never be able to enjoy Apollo 13 again the way I used to...
You are now aware of uncomfortable truths about stereotypically masculine activities.
Wonderful ! !
Of course, it's totally ruined Apollo 13 for me, but it was worth it.
Have I run mad or is this a repost? Not that it doesnt bear another go- its horribly funny, but please reassure me that I am not losing my mind.
Aaaargh - now I need to bleach my brain...
Ahahaha! Panel 4 is awesome! "We're go for manual insertion." lol!
Scott, great comic! Thnx!

Ain't no party like a one-sixth G party, cause a one-sixth G party don't stop.

HAHAHA the last slide... "manual insertion" cracked me up! :D

Neil Armstrong is going to kick your ass, comic boy.

sex on the moon ? ask the moonmen how it's done. the details ate unimportant !
Is this based on something that actually happened to you?
damn you. what has been seen cannot be unseen and I really liked that movie.

The Right Stuff, indeed!
Is that really a line from the movie?
it took me five minutes to stop laughing and read panel two, fucking awesome as per usual.
Hey... is that talking ad bothering anybody else lately?
Thanks to Scott for signing a copy of his latest for my birthday - my brother gave it to me and it made my day - THAT is loyalty to fans...
Bwwahahahahahahahaha! Brilliant! Panel 3 almost brought tears to my eyes!
I will enjoy Apollo 13 a lot more the next time I watch it. Now it works on a whole new level.

Please stop... I kinda can't... LOL.. this is classic, Scott!! Love it.. and you and Missy too! :)
And so the initials of the strip spell "BI"! Coincidence? I don't think so!
You had me at "What happens on the moon stays on the moon."
But really the whole comic is great.
angry eyebrow scott meyer? I like and wish to see more.
