-	The brief teasers typically include a displayed line of humorous text, as well as brief dialogue from characters.

-	The brief teasers typically include a displayed line of humorous text, as well as brief dialogue from characters. A noticeable running gag is that [[Strong Bad]] is always wearing a [[Strong Bad's Teaser Costumes\|recognizable and unbelievably realistic costume]] which is never the same as what he wears in the full toon. Most teasers include [[Nice Try\|words]] hidden behind the silhouettes, [[Easter eggs\|only visible by decompiling]] the [[Flash]] file.	+	The brief teasers typically include a displayed line of humorous text, as well as brief dialogue from characters.
