Several characters have made '''predictions''' about what is to happen in the future. The majority of these predictions are highly unlikely to actually occur, but some have come true.

As of {{CURRENTYEAR}}, none of these have come true. In fact, Strong Sad seems to have gotten ''less'' whiny over the years, and even, primarily in [[Hiatuses#2014 - Present: Transition to the New Status Quo|post-hiatus]] content, just as witty as Strong Bad.

As of {{CURRENTYEAR}}, none of these predictions have come true.

The last montage presented in the email consists of photographs of earlier scenes, as well as captions explaining what later happened to each of the characters: 
+
At the end of the email, it is claimed that [[The Paper]] would be replaced with an inkjet printer in email #173. This did, in fact, come true in [[the paper]].  
-
*The Cheat quits or loses his salesman job due to his failure to sell toner.
+
-
*Homestar sells his "The #1" shirt for US$3 (which is a good deal).
+
-
*Strong Bad hosts an [[Wikipedia:Animal Planet|Animal Planet]] show that gets canceled before its first commercial break.
+
-
*The [[Wagon Fulla Pancakes]] appears in commercials for a used car dealership, finds a spouse, has two children, and moves to [[Wikipedia: Long Beach, California|Long Beach]].
+
-
*[[The Paper]] sticks around until email #173, at which time Strong Bad upgrades to an inkjet printer.
+
-
At least two of these predictions came true: the Wagon Fulla Pancakes did a commercial for [[Senor Cardgage]]'s [[Senorial Day]] Tent Event Supra Sale, and Strong Bad did replace The Paper with [[New Paper]] from an inkjet printer in email #173 ([[the paper]]). The "The #1" shirt has not been seen since the email.

Strong Bad claims that there will be a zombie uprising on March 31, 2046, at 2:03 p.m. By about that time, [[Pom Pom]] and [[Strong Sad]] will have become tough, end-of-the-world-style heroes: Pom Pom sporting a flat-top, cigar, and ammunition belt; and Strong Sad shedding his wimpy image for a gritty-voiced, cigar-smoking, muscular fighter covered in scars and with a five o'clock shadow. His weapon of choice, however, will remain the same then as now: the leotard. Strong Bad, contrary to his outlook in [[replacement]], has decided that he will never die. He will, however, fight on the side of the zombies, if they will let him.

[[Homestar Runner]] predicts that a theme park called "Homestar Dinoland" would open in July 2012. It is also suggested that the actual attraction may turn out to be just a drawer.
