Strong Sad seems to be the most rational of the characters, and often seems to react perplexedly to the others' cartoonish antics. He can often be found patiently correcting another's apparent mistakes, such as in [[Trogdor Con '97]] and [[technology]], or being [[Happy T!|entirely uncomprehending]] of the nonsensical events around him. He was even featured as the sole "[[Bear Holding a Shark]] Skeptic" in [[myths & legends]]. | Strong Sad seems to be the most rational of the characters, and often seems to react perplexedly to the others' cartoonish antics.

His reaction to the mispronunciation of 'pseudonym', as referenced below, may tie this feature into the bossier and more aggressive side of his personality. |
As just noted, there seems be more to his story than depression and whining, as Strong Sad has done things that are not in line with his usually calm temperament from time to time. He [[rough copy|threw snowballs]] (saved in the freezer since he was eight) at Strong Bad, has been [[Strong Bad and Strong Sad's Relationship#Strong Sad's Revenge|physically violent]], [[secret identity#Easter_Eggs|flipped out]] on Homestar when he could not pronounce "pseudonym" correctly, and had a long bout of maniacal laughter when it was revealed that he was behind the whole [[DNA Evidence]] event. Also, when he was coerced into being the security guard in Baddest of the Bands, he tasered Strong Bad whenever he annoyed him. He also states in his blog that his resolution for the new year is to not feel so bad about wanting to hit Homestar so much, which is another example of his violent self. | As just noted, there seems be more to his story than depression and whining, as Strong Sad has done things that are not in line with his usually calm temperament from time to time.
