Editing Homestar Runner and Homestar Runner's Relationship

[[Image:Homstarvs.PNG|thumb|"Man, man, we should start putting those Homestar Vs. Homestar fights on pay-per-view."]]

According to [[Strong Bad]], [[Homestar Runner]] seems to have an "unbelievably loose grasp on the world around [him]." As a result, Homestar will frequently become confused and [[Identity Confusion|forget who he is]]. He then '''interacts with himself as though he is a different and separate person'''. This includes talking to himself, looking for himself, writing notes to remind himself who he is, insulting himself, and even fighting himself.  When he's speaking as [[Cardboard Marzipan]], she seems smarter than Homestar and mentions things that Homestar himself wouldn't be expected to think of, at least consciously.
