== Mustachioed Homestar Runner==

Well I guess this email answers the question about whether [[Mustachioed Homestar Runner]] was a unique character or not. Now we know that he at least has the same voice as Homestar. And I imagine that this is the first time we can actually see him without having to view the toon from its Flash file directly. {{User:The Paper/sig}} 00:50, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)

::Could that be Fabrosi?  Strong Bad mentioned that he was probably out lady-ing with a fake mustache.  --  71.34.147.24 20:37, 8 Aug 2005 (MDT)

Maybe Homestar wrote in using Fabrosi as a pseudonym...

A side note: Fabrosi could also be Homsar, since he wears a false mustache in his main page. [[User:Smileyface11945|Smileyface11945]] 19:10, 18 Aug 2005 (UTC)

::::If Fabrosi is in fact meant to be a real character, I think [http://http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/The_Announcer The Announcer] resembles SB's description the best. But I think "Fabrosi" is just a completely random character. --[[User:Skizzot|Skizzot]] 21:46, 23 Aug 2005 (UTC)

== Stocks and Stipes Forever ==
Toward the end of the email, Strong Bad says stocks are up and stipes are down. According to dictionary.com, a 'stipe' is "A supporting stalk or stemlike structure, especially the stalk of a pistil, the petiole of a fern frond, or the stalk that supports the cap of a mushroom". It's a bit of an unfamiliar word, I bet, so someone may want to add it to the Fun Facts. Just make sure no one alludes 'stocks' to being like 'stalks'. That's a bit too much of a stretch. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

::I agree.  TBC is very good at making such obscure allusions to things that require a bit more knowledge to know about.  From the definition it sounds like it correlates perfectly, too. --[[User:64.164.69.221|64.164.69.221]] 10:05, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:::I have added the definition to Real-world references and changed stocks to stalks. --[User:Eman|Eman]

::::I changed it back. Strong bad types '''stocks'''. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 18:39, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)

==Stipes, TBC and Georgia==

I'm surprised the no one has mentioned Michael Stipe since TBC are from Georgia and so is ... oh, never mind! -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 18:43, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:I thought the same thing. - [[User:211.28.51.186|211.28.51.186]] 06:51, 22 Aug 2005 (UTC)

== Buisness/Ab-Abber ==

I don't feel confident to put this on the main page, but is it possible he says "buisness"? And I'm a little surprised no one's tried to note the similarity between his appearance when he says "muscular" and the handiwork of the Ab-Abber 2000 (granted, not identical; he HAS pecs here).--notstrongorbad

== Kicking The Cheat ==
Don't we have enough for this to be a bona fide [[:Category:Running Gags|running gag]]? Namely:

*[[little animal]].
*Strong Bad threatens to kick The Cheat a couple times at the end of [[caper]].
*He tells Homestar to give The Cheat (hiding under the box)a "swift kick in The Cheat" in [[replacement]].
*He also mentions "Kickin' Cheats 'till the day I die" in [[replacement]].
*Mentioned in [[do over]].
*This email.

:I agree. [[User:Trey56|Trey56]]
::Yeah, totally. That's totally a worthwhile running gag. Don't forget the [[Kick the Cheat]] plushie too. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
I thought it was already a running gag.  Somebody should get on this. {{User:Some HSR themed username/sig}} 20:44, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)

== Cat ==
I think SB says "or holy-crap-adorable cat"...why else would Marzipan comment that it smells like litterbox? Maybe that's just me. --[[User:Cocoa|Cocoa]]

:Meh, sounds like "pet". &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:06, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:I hear "pet" as well, and Marzipan isn't making a whole lot of sense in this email anyway. --{{User:Venusy/Sig}}, 00:14, 10 August 2005 (BST)

::Then it's just me. :/ --[[User:Cocoa|Cocoa]]

== The Fabrosi ==

I don't hear the "the" in "What did you two do to (the) Fabrosi". But since about 1.5% max of the users here ever agree with me on matters like this, discuss. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:05, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:There's no "the". It's just "What'd you two do to Fabrosi?" &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 01:05, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
::I hope you don't mind that I combined the two topic headings that were created nigh-simultaneously. That said, if Dot com agrees with me... --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:07, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:::I don't hear a "the" either. I think the repetition of the same "oo" sound has confused people's ears. I once thought there was a "the", but I gave it another listen and found that it was the "you two do to" confusing my ears. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
::I was unsure if it was "the," but there definitely is some syllable in between there... - '''''[[User:Joshua|<font color=green>Joshua</font>]]'''''

== Genghis the Mongolian ==

Should we add that Genghis Khan lotion for women is referencing the ‘Mongolian aftershave lotion’ mentioned by Strong Bad or is it common knowedge Genghis was from Mongolia?-[[User:The Pardack|the Pardack]]
: It's already there, under Real-World References. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 04:29, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:Didn't notice that, boy do I feel dumb. [[User:The Pardack|the Pardack]]
:: Ah, don't worry. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 04:32, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)



== Inside Reference? ==
"Even though Strong Bad says he would not openly admit that he could never get ladies, he did accidently say he doesn't know anything about the ladies at the end of lures & jigs."

Is this really an inside joke? If anything, I'd call this a fun fact, but it's not even very fun. I think any relation between the two is coincidental at best. -FatPamPam

:You have a point, although I think you meant "Is it an inside ''reference?''" No, it's really not. The item has been moved to "Remarks". &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:27, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)

==Slightly Different?==
I've seen this fact thrashing in and out over the last couple of days. Is this really notable?

<blockquote>The old-fashioned Homestar in this email has a lower voice than his Marshmallow's Last Stand counterpart, sounding slightly more like his modern self. Strong Bad's voice is also slightly different and sounds more like his modern counterpart.</blockquote>

Slightly different? We normally kill stuff with language like that. Isn't it unlikely that an MLS-era voice would be "performed" precisely as it was years ago? -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 17:09, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:I didn't write this fact. I just put it back in because I don't like it when an anonymous user deletes something substantial without so much as a word of explanation. As for the fact itself, meh, I could probably go either way. If you really think it should go, you know what to do. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 17:39, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)

::Oh, yeah. I know what to do! ;) -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 17:44, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:::I meant you should STUFF it. Which I have now done. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:41, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)

== STUFF'd fact false ==

Even though it's too late to change it (it was already unanimously declined), I noticed that the fun fact that said "suppleties" means "supplements" in Dutch was blatantly false. I looked it up on Alta Vista, and the Dutch word for "supplements" is "supplementen." Wish I'd caught that beforehand. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 22:20, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:Did you do a "Dutch to English" translation of "suppleties"? I got an English translation of "supplements". Also, google "suppleties" ... lots of hits on sites in Dutch. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 22:27, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:I'm confused, Kerrek Slayer... you wish the fact hadn't already been declined so that you could give an even-better reason to decline it? &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:56, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

::Well, I dunno if the "even-better" reason was really "even-better". The "Dutch-to-English" translation of "suppleties" is indeed "supplements". Assuming you believe altavista's babelfish, of course. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 14:52, 17 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:::The translator at worldlingo.com agrees. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 14:56, 17 Aug 2005 (UTC)

::::Right. I should have said "''supposedly'' even-better". The fact that ISlayedTheKerrek considered it a better reason was what I was getting at. I was curious about why he seemed to wish the item was still open... So we could decline it with more oomph, or something? &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 15:01, 17 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:::::I'm a lot less inclined to believe "suppleties" means supplements, because I know a few people that speak Dutch, amazing as that may be, and they told me it was "supplementen." --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 17:38, 18 Aug 2005 (UTC)

::::::But you didn't answer my original question. The one that begins "I'm confused..." &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]

::::::It's gotta mean ''something'' in Dutch. [http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGLD,GGLD:2004-13,GGLD:en&q=suppleties This] search turns up all kinds of Dutch sites. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 19:17, 18 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:::::::Well, it's dot com, I wish I had caught it earlier. That's all there is to it. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 20:55, 18 Aug 2005 (UTC)

::::::::Cool. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]
