I know! It's like he's not even trying to hide the fact that they're visible either.

:"Looks like I'm gonna have to jump!" For that, It's the way he jumps, not the line or the fact that Strong Sad is his Stunt double.
:hr:

:"The pipes are broken!"
:kot:

"A little to the left..."
Those are all good ones.

The sheer fact that Strong Bad lets you know what side of his head you're looking at in the latest main page.

The close-up scrolling of Pom Pom dancing in "geddup noise."

Bubs's sign reading "Bubso's Concession Stand" in "geddup noise."

The 'unlabeled box' in Senorial Day always cracks me up for some reason. And also the way Strong Bad says, "I love them all!" in 'personal favorites.' I find both of those hilarious, oddly enough.

Rewatching Geddup Noise again and seeing it as a couple people's avatars, the mere appearance of Blue Sock/The Teach is another tiny detail that cracks me up. It's most probably the combination of its' ridiculous look and Strong Mad's voice that does it.

Call me crazy, but I think it might actually have been TBC's intention to make 'BLUE SOCK!!' sound like it could be misheard as 'YOU SUCK!!' by a few people, given that in the context of the E-mail SM is responding to a lame geddup noise knockoff, which makes it even funnier. :mrgreen:

The sign above Homsar's 'alms for the pudgy' pot that says 'baked beans'. Never fails.

I always thought when Homestar said "...and the goblin came dressed as a santa men." Was really funny. I dont know why, maybe it's just the pronunciation of "men" how it sounds more like "min".

I always liked how that one kid calls out "Christopher Columbus" in response to "Can you say, a-The Cheat?" in "for kids".

I like it when in the ballad of the sneak, they mention "flapper girls," because around the time I watched it agin, our drama program(with me in it) put on a show based in the 1920's starring a flapper, and now that makes me laugh everytime I see it, it makes me laugh.

oh also, in Army, when Homsar walks along with the rest of the army, drops Benedetto, and just keeps going.

It's funny because I've watched that one plenty of times, yet only noticed that today. I'm weird.

I dunno why, but this quote cracks me up...

Cheerleader: Y'all so wack!
The Ugly One: Wiggidy wack?
Cheerleader: No, just plain wack.

The way The Ugly One says that is funny to me for some reason.

I liked the mouth on the snowman on strongbads float in the parade.

made me laugh.

Ian911299 · **Posted:** Wed Nov 23, 2005 2:26 am

For me, it's in Puppet Time when :hr:

says "Strong Bad! Strong Bad, I brought back your tape of old Mister Wizards... okay, I'll just leave it on the floor!", and an exagerated smashing sound is heard. Then :hr:

looks at the computer and says "A note!", then he turns to the screen for no reason at all and repeats himself.

I guess that's not really a tiny detail, but I think it's one of the funniest things ever!

EDIT: Oh, and the fact that Strong Bad's tape was all wrecked when :hr:

brought it back was equally hilarious.

The KoT quoting Toad when dressed up as Mario.

The Kick the Can preview and the Joy of Painting E. Egg on the toons menu.

From the Ballad of the Sneak, "Who knocked the Homestar Runner off his flying maching?" while Homestar is dancing in casts and bandages.

Cleverdan · **Posted:** Thu Nov 24, 2005 1:50 pm

I like how bubs goes into his basement in geddup noise. Hi-freakin-larious.

ramrod · **Posted:** Thu Nov 24, 2005 6:06 pm

I like it how in the Fall Float Parade toon there's two Homsars, and yet Marzipan barely says anything about it. "Oh, and there's another Homsar." That just had me laughing for no apparent reason.

I dunno if this is a minor thing, but I love it:

Quote:

SB (in front of compy) "seems like only yesterday we were setting fire to Strong Sad's underwears."
SS (offscreen): "that WAS yesterday."

SwissCakeRolls · **Posted:** Sat Nov 26, 2005 9:12 pm

I've got more.
*in Homestar and the Nice Present when he calls the Santa Santmen.
*Most of the commentary for Kick the Can. "We had all kinds of two legged... women.... and.... a bearded.. fellow."

I like all the box label gags. :coachz:

"Oh, that's great, sweetie. Say hi to that bee for me."
:hr:

"Hi, bee."

I thought that was pretty funny! Just the look on Homestar's face.

Ian911299 · **Posted:** Mon Nov 28, 2005 4:38 am

Oh, here's another one I like!

Also from Fall Float Parade wrote:

{Homestar is standing in what seems to be the Field.}
:hr:

: "Homestar Runner, you have truly outdone yourself!"
{Pan out to reveal Homestar in a box labeled "blue face man's store" over the removed Bubs' Concession Stand's foundation.}
:hr:

: "Old Mr. Bubs will never know the difference!"

Cleverdan · **Posted:** Mon Nov 28, 2005 10:30 pm

I like the professers hat :hr:

is wearing in the KoT toon. Hilarious.

Duct Tape Patrol · **Posted:** Tue Nov 29, 2005 3:06 am

HR's pause between "kind of" and "music" always gets me in "What kind of...Music do you play???...in cool tapes.
Also, i never get tired of the jibbly dance.
That Goblin's little jamble of music.
Anything involving Bubs and the cheat interacting
HR's spontaneous references to forgotten characters in forgotten shows or forgotten times.
"Hey Gouwlfwend"

The Cup of Coffee · **Posted:** Tue Nov 29, 2005 3:40 am

Definitely the addition of the Crying dog in "space program"

How come?

"Plus two... hundred!"

"You say tomater, I say tomatermorts."

That was a great parody line!

Tomatermorts. I wonder what those are.

Cybernetic Teenybopper · **Posted:** Wed Nov 30, 2005 8:18 pm

Strong Bad smacking Homestar with the frying pan got me cracking up! This is because an inside joke among my friends and family (my "Fri 'n' Fam") is the "Frying Pan of Punishment," or the "F-Pop," with which you are allowed to smack people if they're being dumb.

For some odd reason, I also love the way Homestar orders the drinks in "Lookin' At A Thing In A Bag:" "Uhh, two bwu, an owange, and a wed." Or maybe it's two orange, a blue, and a red. Whatever. The point is, I love it.

I also got going in the bit in "crying" where SB goes: "I you'll excuse me, I've got a... food... in the oven."

My personal favorite, though, is the way The Cheat acts at the end of Halloween Potion-ma-Jig. Just like in Mario Kart 64! I'm always Toad whenever he's avaliable, and I know that "I'm the best!" and "Awowowowow!" like the back of my hand.

Obomaru · **Posted:** Thu Dec 01, 2005 9:05 pm

In Fal Float Parade, K.O.T.H.S. makes me laugh. The whole idea of them being a high school marching band is funny.

Oh, Captain Past-his-prime himself!
