Revision as of 19:25, 6 January 2007
There are a surprising number of words which have been used only once in the Homestar Runner universe. They range from unusual (cacodemons) to commonplace (smaller). In this list, each word is linked to the email, toon or other item where the word is uniquely found. See if you can guess the source before clicking the link.
Feel free to extend this list, adding new words in alphabetical order. The word must be seen or heard only once. If it's heard and seen simultaneously, that's OK. If it's a special case, like a word that happens twice (or, rarely, three times) in one and only one toon, put it in the Honorary Mention section.
No unique/incorrect spellings (buisness), coined words (SBLOUNSKCHED!), proper names (Mudgeman), etc. are allowed. Just plain words, please. If a word is spelled correctly once and misspelled again, that counts as two instances of that word (because misspellings aren't correct) and the word isn't a one-time word. Ex. "cigarette" in space program and "cigarrette" in Teen Girl Squad Issue 5 count as two uses of the same word "cigarette", and therefore neither qualifies here.
Only toons (big, shorts, SBEmails, Answering Machines, character pages, etc.) count, including the Easter eggs within the toon. Don't include the actual games, Videlectrix pages, Strong Sad's Lament, other webpages opened through Easter eggs, commentaries, etc. Link with the toon's name so others can guess the answer.
Feel free to sign any words you add to the list. Please use only three tildes (~~~) to produce a signature but no time stamp. This is not a contest, this is only an exhibition; please, no wagering.
