:Anyone have any idea what Barbados has to do with a water cooler? Very odd. I feel like there HAS to be a joke there that I'm not getting. I mean why does that one partial sentence tell SB all he needs to know?? Is this a movie reference maybe?
::I think it's just completely random.  SB knew that Homestar was about to tell him some completely untrue and nonsensical story, so he stopped him right there... {{User:Trey56/sig}} 11:53, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
:::Ok maybe it's really completely random, but just for the sake of it I'll try. Homestar was in Barbados, hanging a picture on the wall of a bathroom. Much like Doc in Back to the Future when he was hanging a clock on the wall, he was standing on the toilet while doing it, but since it's Homestar, he didn't think of closing the lid. He slipped, fell in the toilet, and flushed himself on the way. He then went through a maze of pipes and ended up in the water cooler in the office. It almost make sense, no?
::::Water coolers aren't connected by pipes. They're just jugs of water with levers to siphon it out.

== Old-Timey Nebulon? ==

Think this alien could be the Old-Timey Nebulon?  Could be!--{{User:Bleed0range/sig}} 07:20, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
:Well, The Homestar Runner doesn't like his style...--[[User:Bobo the King|Bobo the King]] 07:33, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
::True, but i expected that 1936 Nebulon would be green (in the easter egg, he's gray) and to be shaped more like him. --[[User:Young Roy|Y. Roy]] 13:00, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
:::Actually, *all* the Old-Timey characters are in black and white, all the time. Even if they're outside of the Old-Timey dimension, such as [[20X6 vs. 1936]] and [[alternate universe]]. I'd say this is the Old-Timey equivilent of Nebulon. -{{User:YK/sig}} 20:23, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
:I think it's possible; I did kind of think about Nebulon (the whole "Because you're a communist fool!" thing seems a bit similar to the "Nobody likes your style!" thing), but I don't think there's quite enough resemblance other than that to say he's ''definitely'' supposed to be 1936'd Nebs. {{User:Saturn/sig}} 13:27, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
:It's not much of a stretch to see that as Neb. But "our" Neb has two eyes and doesn't talk... Not to mention no arms or discernible legs. I'm still going with that being Neb, however. {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 14:20, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
::Strong Bad tells nebulon that noone likes his style. 1-Up tells 20X6 Nebulon that no one likes his style. So, it's be legit that The Homestar Runner would tell 1936 Nebulon that noone likes his style. Also, he has no similar shape to him, Homestar says he's RED, and whne homestar says "Because you're a communist fool!" to him, he doesn't make the noise. Or any noise. --[[User:Young Roy|Young Roy]]
:::"Red" is just a nickname because he's a Commie, though. Or something like that. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
::There are marked differences between pretty much ALL of the present-day characters and their Old-Timey counterparts.  Examples: The Homestar Runner is more intelligent, Old-Timey Bubs is (or seems) really old, Sickly Sam (Strong Sad) is dead, and Fat Dudley (Pom Pom) sings instead of making bubbly noises.  The Sneak (The Cheat) doesn't make any noise at all.  So it stands to reason that Old-Timey Nebulon would be quite different than his "present-day" counterpart. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 23:51, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
:::Yeah, but take a look at Homestar Runner, then at The homestar Runner. They look almost exactly the same. Although Strong Bad and Sir Strong Bad look different, the genral shape is the same. Red (the alien) looks NOTHING like Nebulon. Unless I can get more legit proof than this, case closed. ---[[User:Young Roy|Y. Roy]] 17:40, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

== Stretch in Real World References ==

"The Homestar fireworks at the end of the cartoon is a direct sendup from Super Mario Brothers 1 for the Nintendo Entertainment System; you recieved fireworks when you did very well on a level."

Highly unlikely.  For one, you got that at the end if you finished at a certain time.  Second, lots of things have fireworks at the end.  I don't see how this is a referance to SMB more than, say, a political cartoon in which fireworks appear as a patriotical symbol.

:I completely agree and removed the fact. Anyone who thinks differently may STUFF it. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 09:01, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I agree completely with the Super Mario Bros. reference. That was my take on it. (Sorry if I'm screwing this wiki format up, I'm a newbie)

Frankly, I think that the fireworks in this mail are closer to the fireworks found in either one of the Main Pages or Strong Bad E-Mail #100.  But that's about the same kind of stretch, so...  Hah hah!  ~ [[User:Jessica Ingmann|Jessica Ingmann]] 13:21, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

== TTATOT Oprah ==

When homestar started talking about makeovers, did anyone else think that he sounded a little like Oprah?  I'm enough people will shout TTATOT, so I'm not even going to bother putting it up. {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 12:54, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

:Yeah, there are tons of shows like that, once again it's a reference to the whole genre of talk shows, instead of a particular one. Although that chair-throwing is clearly a Jerry Springer, because he is known for his violence. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 12:57, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

::Not just the chair throwing but the whole, let's bring on the bad boyfriend thing, which was obviously JS. {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 12:59, 14 November 2006 (UTC)


::The surprise guest is Springer, but the thrown chair if infamously Geraldo.

:::As is, the fun fact is horribly TTATOT. There's a certain reference to the Today Show logo as noted below, but listing specific programs the "makeover" and "reality talk show" segments refer to is a little much, in my opinion. This could be split into two facts, one a reference to the logo, another to the basic genres of shows being referenced (but not specifics). {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 04:06, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

::::I think you may have gone a bit too far.  The incident where a chair gets thrown at Homestar is almost definitely from Geraldo.  It pretty much the single incident most people think of when you mention someone throwing a chair at a reality talk show.

When the show comes on, there is a semi circle. I am certain that it is very close to a 1980's logo for either Good Morning America or a similiar show.  Can anyone find it? {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 12:58, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure that Homestar says "sweet Jesus" after SB tries to get him out of the water cooler, not "sweet genius". [[User:Zero.exe|Zero.exe]] 15:18, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I am certain he said genius.  Living the Atlanta, TBC have (very wisely IMO), never overtly made light of religion, and I listened a second time, just to me sure.--[[User:Saxonjf|Saxon the Deutschmaster]] 15:31, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

== Mid-term Election Time?? ==

Does anybody else think it was not just a coincidence that this came out fairly soon after the mid-term elections in the USA?
I mean it even has Homestar as the Capitol building. Just putting it out there...  {{User:Raptor5ix/sig}} 00:39, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

:I think coincidence. {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 03:48, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

::The elections are ''exactly'' what I thought of.  Why else would they make the governmental analogy in this e-mail?  It seems out of place otherwise.  (Another thought -- are TBC comparing our government to Homestar?  Um ... never mind.  Let's not go there ...)  --[[User:Bobsmith84|Bobsmith84]] 16:38, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I think it's obviously about the election. I don't think it is for or against anything, it's just about the government generally, and it was done at this paticular time because of the recent election.

Therefore, I think the page should mention that this was done shortly after the election and link to Wikipedia's article about the election. --{{User:Nerd42/sig}} 20:51, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I didn't notice it, and even now that it's mentioned, it seems pretty irrelevant. It boils down to "there was a government in a cartoon around election time, but the cartoon stated nothing/insinuated nothing about the actual government" - I mean, I'm not sure if it's even intentional. Even so, it couldn't hurt to put a link in or at least acknowledge the fact. Anyway, I'm not from the US so maybe it just didn't jump out at me -- [[User:Michelle Mabelle|Michelle Mabelle]] 21:50, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
:Well, I think we should put it here. I ''am'' from the US, and I think they did it on purpose. Something like: This toon was released shortly after the mid-term elections in the United States, which might be why TBC chose to mention government. Mine sounded TTATOT, but I just did it off the top of my head. -[[User:Brightstar Shiner|<span style="color: #800080;">''Brightstar Shiner''</span>]] 22:06, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
== Collecting the correct line ==

Yeah, uh oh, it's me questioning a line in the transcript. Again. Sorry. Okay, anyway, the word "collect"/"correct" may never be fully distinguishable thanks to it being Homestar, but I do not and cannot hear "calls". I hear a distinct M, especially with my good headphones. Sure, maybe "calls collect" makes the most sense, but... this is Homestar. Doing stupid things. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 06:30, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I agree. I also clearly hear an "M". {{User:Exhibit A/sig}} 16:20, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

:Bobsmith: pretty much. As I said, I recognize that it's nonsense, but that's what I hear. And would Homestar saying nonsense really be that unexpected? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:33, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
::I hear "Comes correct". &mdash; {{User:SamFisher1022/sig}} 15:34, 15 November 2006

::I also hear "Comes correct".  The phrase is not nonsense, (it sounds odd to me too, but I have heard it used before).

:::I agree with Bryanc. I definitely hear "comes correct", and since it is [http://www.rapdict.org/Come_correct rap vocabulary], it also makes perfect sense in the sentence Homestar uses it in. He's also half-rapping, IMHO.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 00:55, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

== Communists..... ==

Is "War of the Worlds" really an example of aliens representing communists? It's about the right time period, but that's the only reason for this as far as I can see, and there's nothing about it on the Wikipedia article, or any of the references to that. If anything it seems to carry the same message as the original book (that however great man's power is we are still dependent on nature). Plus it was hardly likely that the communists were going to all die of a cold..... [[User:DumbMuscle|DumbMuscle]] 20:35, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

== Jolly Dumple = Cast? ==

Is the Jolly Dumple a cast member? Homestar is not actively portraying this mascot. The costume is being used as a kind of house. I simply don't see how this character is a real cast member. He appears, sure, but the appearance of a costume does not, in my mind, constitute an appearance by the character the costume represents. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 22:58, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
:[[mascot|Mascot]]'s cast list says "[[Homestar Runner]] as [[The Jolly Dumple]]", so since Homestar isn't playing ol' Jolly, it shouldn't be in the cast list. &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 01:51, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

== "Correct" Spanish Form ==

I am under the impression there technically is no "'correct' Spanish form" for New York, as you are not supposed to translate proper nouns. Shouldn't this be noted in the remark in question, or am I just being an English major again?
:Proper nouns get translated all the time. It's true that some words are not translatable, but those that can be tranlated, are translated. Most of the words we use for foreign cities and countries differ (at least slightly) from the local spelling and pronunciation, and in some cases it differs drastically (what we call ''Germany'' the Germans call ''Deutschland''). Likewise, English proper nouns are translated into other languages. ''The United States of America'' is ''les &Eacute;tats-Unis d'Am&eacute;rique'' in French and ''los Estados Unidos de Am&eacute;rica'' in Spanish. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:27, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

== yes BABY, the whole password ==

frame 1376 or so, he says baby, im pretty sure. at any rate, it sound more like baby than lady to me, and it would fit the changing pronouns that he uses, ie, maam, sir, baby, etc. 

also, could we note somehow in inside references that the work they do at the office consists of trying to get ppl's passwords? {{User:Csours/sig}} 04:35, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

I also think he says "baby" and I was just about to make a post on it here. It is rather difficult to tell for sure, but I've watched the toon several times (I just can't get enough of Homestar stuffed into a water cooler!) and each time I listen close to that part.  I give it about 70 - 30 in favor of "baby".

Completely agree with "baby".  I'm gonna go ahead and change that if it's not reverted immediately.--[[User:Bobo the King|Bobo the King]] 15:07, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

::I assume the line of thinking is about U.S. relations with the Soviet Union, which were pretty good until the Allies had to divide up the conquered Axis territory. That all fell apart and basically caused the Cold War. That, however, resulted in the ''second'' "Red Scare". The [[Wikipedia:First Red Scare|''first'' one]] began shortly after the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution in response to fears that a Communist revolution would destroy the American way of life. {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 07:38, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
:::According to that 'Kipedia article, the "first red scare" ended 1920, about 15 years before the Old-Timey time.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 08:02, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
::::That does not suddenly make it not an insult. According to [[Wikipedia:Red Scare|Wikipedia]], "As a result of the fear and oppression around the First Red Scare, membership in the Communist Party of the United States and similar Marxist/Communist groups was reduced by some 80 percent." If there was not some negative stigma connected to being labeled a Communist, why would this have happened post-1920? It's a mistake to read the article and assume that everything was all nicey-nicey for 25 years. From [[Wikipedia:Anti-communism|Anti-communism]]:

<blockquote>The 1920s and 30s saw the fading of traditional conservatism. The mantle of conservative anti-communism was taken up by the rising fascist movements on the one hand, and by American-inspired liberal conservatives on the other. Communism remained largely a European phenomenon, so anti-communism was also concentrated in Europe. When communist groups and political parties began appearing elsewhere in the world, such as in China in the late 1920s, their opponents were usually colonial authorities and/or local nationalist movements.</blockquote>

::::While this paragraph is speaking specifically about European sentiment, note how the anti-communist attitude was inspired by American ideals, which at this point were partly instrumental in transforming the largely monarchial European governments into the democracies we see today. Later in this article, we read how public opposition, even fear, of communism started to occur in the 40's. What history teaches us is that these public hostilities are always preceded by more private beliefs. To state, as this fact does, that the 30's were a "golden window" when there was no negative attitudes toward Communists in the US is simply misguided. That's why I believe the fact should be removed. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 10:13, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
