Fantastic. Also, little known fact - BI is one of the very few websites that gets through the vicious internet filters of the Australian Army. Personally, I think it's because they don't WANT to block it...
Wow, panel two soooo describes me, and situations my boss assigns to me for 'customer relations!' (My boss and I have even had similar conversations, though he would at least use 'well' instead of 'good.')
The first line in panel 3 actually works even if it were the only line in that panel.
The whole strip is great, by the way... a four-panel win!
Sadly, the very act of using "fancy" words usually obfuscates the meaning, simply because few other people appreciate having a varied and precise vocabulary.
A cerebral and enlightening offering, my good sir, the joy it has wrought marred solely by the wearisome echolalia of the ensuing flurry of comments. One might hope such a piece would inspire more innovative explorations of the endless delights of the English tongue in its readership. Come, brothers! Throw off the dullardry seemingly ubiquitous to the internet comment board and let us revel in the sesquipidalian majesty of our modern lingua franca!
In summary - contrafibularities, indeed. Shitloads of them.
Ladies, when you don't feel like shaving you can were slacks. This has been acceptable since the Second World War. We men cannot throw on a pair of face pants. We can grow a beard which takes one to two weeks to go from "unshaven hobo" to "that beard makes you look old". As for your "personal area"; remember the mouth? Every. Day.
BI might get through the Australian army restrictions but it doesn't make it through the Great firewall of China. I have to view it through illigal firewall breaking software. So Scott's helping the revolution.

Indubitably! One of my favourite words!
Does Scott watch so you think you can dance?
Hilarious and mind-expanding, as usual.
Inconceivable!
lol, I enjoyed this one! And as I always say "one should never engage in social intercourse whilst masticating".
All faith is now restored in you. Bravo.
Excellent use of the word "malingering".

I thoroughly enjoyed the latter two panels. Splendid work, sir!
My girlfriend figured out that when I'm using weasel words, I'm hiding something. I can only hope that my friends won't wise up as well.

Another capital comic, Sir Scott. Kudos.
I shall forthwith cease to use the term 'procrastinate' in favor of 'malinger'.
"Speak well", not "talk well!"
Couldn't help myself.
Heh - where the first and second panels join, you look like a Siamese Twin Scott. :D
That last panel was the best ever... I'm going to remember to use that next time someone accuses me of procrastinating.
"A procrastinator intends to do something, eventually."
Bravo, that made me guffaw rather explicitly. Another fine comic, sir!
I just found out I'm not, in fact, procrastinating. Thank you for informing me! Probably bad news for someone, though.
An excellent comic sir! Panel one is just capital.
Splendiferous
The final line is incredibly good.
A capital comic! Even the title got me laughing.
I always used my advances vocabulary to mess with people when my sister was young she'd tell my father I was big wording at her. :)
May I extend my most sincere contrafibularities on authoring such a frasmotic comic.
"You can't help yourself."
So true in so many ways.
Me like comic. It brainy.
Splendid!
Extraordinarily risible! Kudos!
Inconceivable!
You keep saying that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Another useful alternative to 'procrastinate' is 'perendinate.'
Excellent, avery single panel very well written, thank you!
I like the double meaning in the last line of the second panel.
Ha, this was great XD. Maybe my favorite Basic Instructions ever, and I've read them all :P.

There is not no one who can't not fail to not like this comic.

Don't usually comment, but I love love panel 4. I'm a malingerer of the highest order.
LOL~ great post!
by the way, i've just noticed that your client looks really like Roy Khan, singer of Kamelot. Do you know him?
Nice Blackadder reference, Edmund.
Such a great post to read ! I really enjoyed this post as because of all fancy like communication.
Thank you so much for this nice sharing : )
