Revision as of 01:28, 23 December 2005
One of the ultimate mysteries of the series is that Homestar Runner, Marzipan, The King of Town and Homsar all lack visible arms and hands, yet in spite of this they have the ability to pick stuff up and carry it around. The most common explanations for the phenomenon are that they either have invisible arms or can manipulate objects with some kind of psychokinesis. Usually none of the other characters seem to pay attention to this curiosity, although sometimes their lack of hands is referenced.
