Remarks
- "I she be" is most likely a typo of "I should be" or "I shall be."
- At the top of the IM window, it says "instant messenge." "Messenge" is not a word, though it may be a play on, or a misspelling of, the word "messenger."

- When first responding to the email, Strong Bad says, "all i gotta say..." The I is not capitalized, contrary to his ruthless attention to mechanics.
