*The {{w|eye chart}} held up by Homestar is known as a "{{w|E chart|Tumbling E}}" chart.  This form of vision chart is used by optometrists and ophthalmologists on patients who are illiterate, or those children who are too young to read but old enough to speak (preliterate); the patient can tell the doctor which direction the prongs of the Es are facing, rather than needing to recognize letters.

*When the glasses are put on, Homestar's shirt logos are still blurred because logos, trademarked designs, and certain words on clothing are often obscured by the producers of visual media (usually television or music videos) when they don't want the logos, designs, or words visible in the final product, often to avoid having to pay to display the logo.

*Main Page 24 does not function correctly on web browsers with {{w|Adobe Flash Player}} 7 or lower installed. The text on the links on the left side of the screen is missing, and the links are not clickable.  The links also do not produce the roll-over effects.  The Main Page selection in the bottom left-hand corner is missing entirely and all of the buttons on the top right-hand corner are missing.  Homestar also lacks the star on his shirt, and the blur effects are not visible (but the page is slightly faded). Strong Bad shows up legless.

*Main Page 24 is the only main page that currently does not function correctly on the [[Wikipedia: Nintendo Wii|Nintendo Wii]] and [[Wikipedia:PlayStation 3|PlayStation 3]]'s web browsers. The text on the links on the left side of the screen is missing, and the links are not clickable.  The links also do not produce the roll-over effects either.  The Main Page selection in the bottom left-hand corner is missing entirely.  All of the buttons on the top right-hand corner are missing as well.  Homestar also lacks the star on his shirt, and the blur effects are not visible (but the page is slightly faded).

**This is due to the Wii and PS3's web browsers only supporting Flash Player 7 and lower content, while Flash 8 or higher is necessary to do the blurring effects found here.

[[File:BrokenMainPage24.png|thumb|The broken Ruffle version]]
 
-
*Between the [[Ruffle]] update and sometime between July and December 2023, the player would not show the blur effect ([https://github.com/ruffle-rs/ruffle/pull/12299 though it was fully implemented as of July 2023]), and older builds would also not load the main page selection, weeklies, and what's new buttons. Despite being fixed, a notice at the bottom of the screen still reads:
 
-
<blockquote>
 
-
This main page is MESSED UP! Currently, Ruffle doesn't support Actionscript <!--[sic; 's' should be capitalized]--> 3 which is what made the blurry stuff blurry on this page. All the links should work, the main joke of the page won't though. Also, the "new button" and little "homepages menu" don't show up either.<!--[sic; message hasn't been changed to reflect updated Ruffle builds]--> Sorry! Thx4patience!
