== Lollipop? ==
I believe they're more properly called ice cream bars. This might be an American name though, but for context it may be more approperate. --[[User:AndrewNeo|AndrewNeo]] 17:53, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

: That's what I was thinking too.. --[[User:Mick|Mick]] 18:00, 9 May 2005 (UTC)
: They're being referenced as both lollipops and popsicles, and it's neither. --[[User:AndrewNeo|AndrewNeo]] 18:01, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

I've always known them as "Fudgesicles", although that is a registered trademark of Good Humor. Note that, whatever you call them, they are not lolliops. A lollipop is made of hard candy, not frozen chocolate pudding. However, a quick google search reveals that there really is such a thing as chocolate lollipops, though these are also significantly different from other lollipops. Tootsie also makes a chocolate flavored tootsie roll pop(which already has a chocolate center). 

The "pops" in question are almost definitely fudgesicles, as they are revealed to be brown to the core, not vanilla with a chocolate coating, as ice cream bars are.  [[User:PolarBoy|PolarBoy]] 18:08, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

: I saw part of this discussion before changing them to "ice cream bars" - it's certainly a lot more correct than "lollipop" or "popsicle." --[[User:Jay|<span style = "color: #9090FF">''Jay''</span>]] [[User talk:Jay|<span style = "color: #006030"><small>(Talk)</small></span>]] 18:27, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

We just call them chocolate fudge bars in school, because now that I think about it a ice cream bar is more like ice cream on a stick with chocolate coating. --[[User:AndrewNeo|AndrewNeo]] 22:39, 9 May 2005 (UTC) <!-- I hate it when you forget to notice you're not logged in.. -->

: I still say they're Fudgesicles, or Chocolate Pudding Pops if you like.

They CAN'T be chocolate lolipos. Those arn't "scientificly possible"

You've got a point!

I ''have'' had a chocolate-flavored lollipop before. Didn't taste very good, though. -[[User:67.22.197.57|67.22.197.57]]

:I "have" too. It was a Dumm-Dumm. I agree with the Fudgesicles theorey. -[[User:72.172.198.130|72.172.198.130]] [[User talk:72.172.198.130|<span style = "color: #006030"><small>(Talk)</small></span>]]

I think it's most accurate to call them Pudding Pops, because that is what Strong Bad called them in Weird Dream. [[User:Trelawney|Trelawney]] 00:42, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)

==Various notes==
You know the table where Homestar is seen on the T.V.?  Well, I'm guessing that's Cheat Commandos...O's table in the toon.  When the King of Town is talking about an unnamed person, he;s talking about the Poopsmith.  Bubs burning "Exhibit A" is a reference to Strong Bad E-mail lackey, as it showed that Bubs might have done some illegal things.--[[User:THE TOAD|THE TOAD]]
:I'm not sure about the first. It might be a valid point, I dunno. Of course the King is referring to the Poopsmith, but I don't think that needs to be mentioned on the page. And the "Exhibit A" burning and the Dorauxgard confrontation in lackey don't reference each other - they're just similar jokes about the same concept. --[[User:Jay|<span style = "color: #9090FF">''Jay''</span>]] [[User talk:Jay|<span style = "color: #006030"><small>(Talk)</small></span>]] 23:49, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

== Strong Sad? ==

Anyone else think Strong Sad acts out of character in this toon? I mean he normally doesn't act like someone who'd care too much about underwear.

*I don't understand how you can not care if someone individually priced and auctioned off your underwear.  As far as being attached to a specific pair of underdrawers, Strong Sad seems to have uncommonly strong feelings about inanimate objects.  For instance they way he likes "board games more than most people" in his [[Strong_Sad#Character_Video_Transcript|character video]].

:Either way it's weird seeing Dumpy not-naked. He and The Cheat have it going on for nudity. ^_^

== Inside references ==

It seems unlikely to me that the "Bug Swallow! BUG SWALLOW!" bit is a reference to "Rose face! ROSE FACE!" as "Rose Face!" is very likely a reference to "Rosebud!" from ''Citizen Kane.'' The connection seems tenuous at best - there are probably a good number of similar exclamations on HSR. I would vote that it be removed.
* I know! I wish people would stop attempting to add it! Someone even tried to make a PAGE dedicated to this tenuous connection! --[[User:Jay|<span style = "color: #9090FF">''Jay''</span>]] [[User talk:Jay|<span style = "color: #006030"><small>(Talk)</small></span>]] 19:02, 10 May 2005 (UTC)

I wouldn't call "the most quackinest" a specific reference to either the character page or Shake Your Rump: double superlatives are common in hip hop (another example off the top of my head: "You win our award for most stinkiest," Del, If You Must).

It's actually "You get our vote for most stinkiest", but I have to admit that Shake Your Rump is what came to mind when I heard "Most quackinest"

== Movie Reference? ==

Does anyone else think that the reference to "Dr Bubs" as a fashion consultant is a reference to the movie "Hitch," in which Will Smith plays the "Date Doctor" Alex Hitchens?

Not at all.   I guess you could say that calling Bubs a paranormal investigator would be a reference to the movie series Ghost Busters, but I would say that both examples are tenuous at best and could not be considered a "fun fact" - [[User:Tony Stony|Tony Stony]] 02:12, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

== SNES ==

When Strong Bad says "Aw. Now my head's not taped to the TV." you can clearly see a north american super nes in the TV.
I don't know if that would be a real-world reference or not, thought I might mention it.

EDIT: ok, I take back "clearly"

== Blue And-1s? ==

Could be a reference to the popular sneakers 'And 1s'. Especially the way Strong Sad intonates the phrase.
: I doubt it. He's saying he's going to do a search for "blue and ones", instead of just "blue ones". --[[User:Jay|<span style = "color: #9090FF">''Jay''</span>]] [[User talk:Jay|<span style = "color: #006030"><small>(Talk)</small></span>]] 03:27, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

== Theme Music ==

That is the coolest music I've ever heard! It seems to be some sort of Casio instrument with a rythym accompanyment in the background...but what instrument? --[[User:VolatileChemical|VolatileChemical]] 21:59, 14 May 2005 (UTC)


it sounds a little like a kazoo to me. [[User:Kefti islander|Kefti islander]] 00:37, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== The good times are over! ==

It's just an idea but could this sentence be (or rather the fact that Homestar keeps repeating it even if the bug swallowing doesn't have anything to do with it) a reference to the "the brothers chaps are losing their touch" kind of comments that almost every toon or E-mail provokes in some fans?


I thought it was just his way of saying "I'm going to die!"

Or maybe he thought he'd have no more fun.

"The Good Times are Over" is a cliched phrase from whenever someone is on a deathbed at an early age, meaning that their times of running around and having fun. It is rarely used to demonstrate a lack of quality.

== Homestar killed Caleb ==

Why the heck did Homestar kill Caleb? Was he hired to?
:It's a joke, dude.  -- [[User:Tony Stony|Tony Stony]] 23:14, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

== Bubs the Ripper ==

Does anyone have any clue how Bubs got his hands on Exhibits A and B (possibly the pancreas)? I'm fearing a homicide reference here. Is it even a pancreas? And what court is there in Free Country USA to convict him, anyhow?


No way! That's definetly not a REAL pancreas!

Oh MY GOD! BUBS IS A MURDERER!!!! he must have gotten the pancreas from homeschool winner. he probably killed him. I wouldn't put it past him

== The remote ==

I just know I saw that remote somewhere before. Isn't it the remote from the old toon menu? You know, when Sbemail, TGS and Marzipan's answering machine weren't buttons yet. [[User:Kvb|Kvb]] 20:18, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
:Yeah, it is. But it's not really a reference, is it? -Walking Armless

== A few proposed transcript revisions ==

* When Bubs is looking in Homestar's mouth, I don't hear "Curious, yes."  I only hear "Yes, yes," said with some kind of an accent - like "Yeyes, yes."  Is it just me?
* When Bubs is looking in Homestar's mouth, Homestar's "gurglings" sound like he's trying to repeat what Bubs just said - if I were to transcribe it, "Ogey," "Aa-ahh ahh," "Ingoein."  Worth mentioning?
* I don't know how anyone got "A-na-ma" in Strong Bad's line "A-na-ma! Not today, McDorkle."  Isn't it just a regular ol' "Ah-ah-ah-ah" (four syllables) type scolding, no extraneous consonants?

Yeah, I'm not a "bold" editor. :-P

== ''Who'' shot Caleb? ==
{{Audio|ShotCaleb.ogg|Listen to the quote from the DVD}}

I've listened to this cartoon several times, and I'm almost certain that the TV announcer does not say "Find out ''whom'' shot Caleb," as stated in the transcript, but rather says the grammatically correct "''who'' shot Caleb" with a strong emphasis on the word "who" which may have caused some to hear an "m" at the end. I realize a Fun Fact about this has already been STUFF'd and accepted; I'm bothering to bring it up because it seems those who voted on this Fun Fact didn't vote based on the accuracy of the fact but rather voted on its merits assuming it was accurate. I thought I would at least see if others hear this line the way I do. [[User:Heimstern Läufer|Heimstern Läufer]] 00:48, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
:I know this post is pretty old, but I thought I'd second and revive it.

:OK this has come back again. It was at "who" for quite some time, then someone decided to change it back to "whom". I really don't understand how anyone can here an "m" at the end of this word, especially in Opti's clip. And really, with no consensus in this thread (I'm willing to completely discount the old STUFF discussion because it had nothing to do with the transcrpt, but only the merits of the fact), we shouldn't be attributing grammatical errors to TBC, even as a joke (especially since this joke is not funny). "Who" is by far the simpler solution to this question. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:45, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

*'''Revise and Accept''' They never actually say that Strong Sad searched Google, but I think it can be safely inferred, in which case I think this is one awesomely fun fact.  I think it's also safe to assume that TBC did the search and knew what it was that they were indirectly referencing... and even if they didn't, I think it's worth recording, since future fans will likely be curious as to what was on the other side of the "blue ones" search when the toon was released.  It should be revised, however, to say "At the approximate time that the toon was released..." since the search result is almost certain to change relatively soon. - Dingell

***To speak to your specific question, somebody out there (not me) wondered what Strong Sad would have found (if Strong Sad were real) when he searched for "blue ones".

The opening theme is somewhat like [[They Might Be Giants]]', [http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Till_My_Head_Falls_Off "Till My Head Falls Off"]. The beat is the same, but the Bug In Mouth Disease one is slower and has a drum loop and heavier keyboard sounds.

*'''Comment''' It's not ''tradition'', it's protecting themselves. (In most areas, dialing 555-anything results in a computer telling you things like the time and weather.)

**Hmmmm. I *did* read the link before I posted it. It shows that the use of the "555" in the toon is a reference to (or a similar usage of) the "555" used in movies and television.

***But the thing is that it is so common in almost anything in media with a phone number that I fail to see it as a "reference".  It's more of just a staple of cartoon numbers.  It was probably not meant to be a joke -- [[User:Tony Stony|Tony Stony]] 21:10, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
