==Chatter and Initial Reactions==
This was better than usual in my view. I think the Brothers are coming out of their... funny-block. Anyone agree? -- [[User:FireBird|FireBird]]

Yeah, for a bit, they kinda went into a slump. The only thing that kept me watching was the hope that they would start being funny again(and Doug the Dino. Gotta love ol' Doug!). Now it seems they may be climbing their way back on top.

I wouldn't ever stop watching Homestar Runner. Not for a million years! -- [[User:FireBird|FireBird]]

Alright, well, I liked The Facts and Cheat Commandos Ep 3 better than this one :)  I don't think they've been in a slump for upwards of a month (perhaps 2, perhaps 3) and have been pleased with their contemporate work :)<BR>

What made you think that they had been in a slump? Seriously, explain, because it hadn't really occurred to me.
--[[User:Ogoms|Ogoms]] Oct. 4

Yeah, the Brothers' Chaps have been in an on-and-off slump for a few months now. --[[User:Dragondoom5|Dragondoom5]]

YAH I WAS THE FIRST GUY TO ADD ALL THE EASTER EGGS TO Time Capsule email before i did it all it said is "this sucks" -Silvermonkey8

Isn't the casette tape in the easter egg going backwards? -gront 

REMOVE: This song sounds in no way like "Let it burn" by Usher, I seriously doubt this is a reference. The only similarity that I see between Usher and Strong Bad, is that they both produce a ton of number one jams! -[[User:smoothmedia|smoothmedia]]

If dry ice was in the capsule, and the capsule was tight and strong enought to keep from leaking, opening, or exploding, wouldn't the gas expanding cause it to cool down and thus make a white fog shoot out? [[User:DanielLC|Daniel]] 22:19, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

I am thinking that the "turtle" article should become part of the transcript...can or should this be done? -- [[User:Tony Stony|Tony Stony]] 01:14, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

Just wondering if there should be a "Strong Bad Email #X" in the Summary for all Strong Bad Emails?  Because it was there in most of them, but not in the most recent ones -- [[User:thejesterx|thejesterx]] 20:08, 4 Oct 2004 (MST)

===Isle of Pom? (DECLINED)===
The time capsule looks an awful lot like the The Isle of Pom.

*'''Uhhm, it's a DECLINE, no, and I hate you get out.''' I betcha I know why the person wrote this "fun" fact. Probably 'cause it's gross and nasty and old and they didn't want it. Y'know, I think (in sarcastic voice) Pom-Pom's  voice sounds an awful freakin' lot like Mike friggin' Chapman blowing BUBBLES IN HIS MILK! Oh, man. I peed my carpet. [[User:Cheatachu72|Cheatachu72]] 03:10, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

*Sorry but there are a lot of things on the site that look like that, there are the bog ole headache meds (a pic on the jar) power crunches in the 20X6 Game, Pom Isle, Time Capsule, and DEAD BODIES IN THE FREEZER!! -- [[User:Lappy 486|Lappy 486]] 05:17, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

*'''Decline.''' The capsule is a rather generic shape. One that the Isle of Pom just happens to be in. [[User: GG Crono|GG Crono]]
*'''Accept''' Why the heck not? by the way, are you feelin' alrite cheetachu72? you seem a little out of it.--[[User:Because, It's Midnite|Because, It's Midnite]]

*I really don't see what's wrong with this fun fact. It's true the time capsule looks like the Isle of Pom. Plus, fans wouldn't be able to tell unless they go to the museum, which I myself didn't bother looking at until I was a hardcore fan. Yes, a capsule is a common shape, but I haven't seen it on the website too much, which makes it stand out a little. So '''Accept'''. - [[User:Song from 60s|Song from 60s]] 22:36, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

* '''TOTAL DECLINE'''. Listen, if some new guy watched both Time capsule and the Isle of Pom, they would suddenly make that reference! DELETE IT! [[User:Maestro|Maestro]] Oh, and one more thing. The fact is already in the Fun Facts section of Time Capsule!!!!!![[User:Maestro|Maestro]] 04:25, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

===Norse mythology (DECLINED)===
The line about making people from spit may be a reference to a Norse myth, in which the Aesir (war gods) and Vanir (fertility gods), to seal a peace treaty between them, made a man (named Braugi) from their collective spit. He knew all their combined secrets, but was eventually killed by giants.
*'''Decline.''' It's more likely a reference to the fact that spit contains DNA, and it may one day be possible to clone someone from their DNA. <small><tt>[[User:Homestar Coder|<font color=#8B0000>Aurora the Homestar Coder</font>]]</tt></small> 15:03, 11 Apr 2005 (MDT)

*'''Decline.''' Uh... no.  While that's a very well thought-out reach, it's still a reach - the reference is to cloning from DNA.  --[[User:TheEggman|TheEggman]] 12:12, 12 Apr 2005 (MDT)
**'''Second.''' It's probably a reference to DNA and cloning. [[User:TakuaKaita600|TakuaKaita600]] 15:24, 12 Apr 2005 (MDT)
* You obviously put a lot of work into this one, but unfortunately, I must '''Decrine.''' As said by other folks above, it's a reference to cloning from DNA. [[User:Rudeboy87|Rudeboy87]] 14:49, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)
*'''Revise and Accept.'''  This is a FUN FACT!  Mind you, I highly doubt this is what TBC were trying to reference, but my life has been enriched by reading this.  I would suggest rewriting it, however, to say "There is a story in Nordic mythology in which the Aesir (war gods)...."  This way, there's no suggestion that TBC was trying to reference this fact.--[[User:rsl12|rsl12]] 16:24, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)
*'''Decline.''' No way does this work.  The whole joke is based on the popular misconseption of what cloning is.  Clones are genetic twins, not exact duplicates with the same minds, thoughts, and memories of the original. -- [[User:TheRealZajac|The Real Zajac]] 15:21, 17 Apr 2005
*'''Decline.''' This is NOT a fun fact. This is barely a fact. Why wasn't this one just deleted? --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 17:54, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
=== Wig reference? (Declined) ===
The gross old wig is probably the wig Homestar wore as part of his Kurt Cobain costume in Homestarloween Party. 	 

*'''Decline''' I don’t see the connection. The gross old wig looks '''way''' different from the Cobain wig. --[[User:The Pardack|The Pardack]]

===Eyes (Accepted)===
Homestar's eyes appear to be placed closer together in this email than usual.

*'''"Oh no! You shank my ACCEPTION ship!"''' Nice observation! I kidn of noticed it, but I wasn't sure... Good job! --[[User:MrsCommanderson|MrsCommanderson]] 22:41, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
*'''Accepted, yo!''' - After some close inspection, yes, his eyes ''do'' seem a bit different. I guess TBC made this sort of mistake before with Strong Bad in "Where's The Cheat?" where they messed up one of his eyes. Nice job pointing this out! - [[User:SaikoRoxi|SaikoRoxi]] 4:42 PM, May 27, 2005
*'''ACCEPT'''!  Good find! -- [[User:Tony Stony|Tony Stony]] 23:29, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
*  *Watches toon* Yeah, you're right. I think it's cuz he puts the wig on his head in front of his eyes and one eye had to be visible so they moved it, ya know? 
*'''Accept'''- Whoa, crap, I never noticed that, nice find! [[User:Ramrod|Ramrod]] 14:20, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
*One other think I noticed is that Strong Bad misspells "smokey" as "smoky". Shoould somebody put this? -- [[User:Lappy 486|Lappy 486]] 00:43, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

*I was so ready to delete this fact and post a notice saying that provably untrue facts are DELETED!! I saw a picture where "time capsule" Homestar's eyes were placed on another Homestar, and it was totally unconvincing since the eyes were different scales in the first place. Then I watched the email, and compared it with [[flashback]]. Wow. '''It's true.''' --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:05, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
*I hate to do this since it's true, but '''Decline'''. I'm sorry, but I just don't think it's very fun. I don't think the people who accepted have to worry, though, since I seem to be the only one on the opposite side so far. - [[User:Song from 60s|Song from 60s]] 22:28, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

== Taped over, or intentional use? ==

When I heard the "future jam" I assumed Strong Bad used the "grumblecake theme" on purpose, then distorted it and went into the tune proper. You hear stuff like that all the time.

Others? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 01:18, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

== "Froosh" ==

Okay, I added the following to the Remarks section a few days ago:

''The sound made when Stinkoman opens the time capsule is a recycle of Strong Bad saying "Froosh" from only seconds before, and therefore Strong Bad perfectly predicted the sound that would be produced on opening the capsule.''

It was removed by [[User:Lapper|Lapper]], who said it belonged in [[Sound Effects]], so that's where I put it.  It was then removed from there by [[User:The Chort|The Chort]], who said it wasn't relevant for that page.  So now I've put it back here again, where it probably beonged in the first place.

- [[User:Pete Sampwas|Pete Sampwas]] 17:10, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

== Sam the Concorder ==

This probably is not worth mentioning in the main article, because it really doesn't like Strong Bad actually says this, but the way "sam concord california" is written, and the way SB reads it, it almost sounds like Sam conquered California.  He just marched right in and told Arnold to get out!  "We don't need no bodybuildin' robots running this town!"
Anyway, that just hit me when the random button landed on it, and I thought it was hillarious, so I thought I'd share--[[User:Antisexy|Antisexy]] 03:50, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
:I've actually thought that myself, and wondered too about if it needed a note. Yopu've saved me a great deal of debate. =3 --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 03:52, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

==Viscosity==
Anyone think that "with the viscosity" could be a reference to Black Sheep's song "Strobelite Honey"?  It's a stretch for sure, but it wouldn't be the first time Strong Bad has quoted a hip-hop lyric (compare "so fresh and so clean, clean" in [[spring cleaning]]), and I can't think why else anyone other than a chemist would say "with the viscosity."  (I don't know what Black Sheep meant by it either.)

==Con-cord versus Conk-erd==

In the Bay Area, it's pronounced conk-erd. [[User:198.6.14.254|198.6.14.254]] 18:58, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
