Scene Opens in darkened room with yellow tape (reading "YELLOWTAPE LELLOWTAPE") all over the Lappy.
Lights go on. Enter Strong Bad
STRONG BAD: (Starts clearing tape away, starts singing} Email is nice, (unintelligible), (finishes clearing) email is twice (unintelligible).
subject: keeping life excitingdear strong bad,
dude i am getting bored of the "no loafing" sign and blue
paint.

{The "dear strong bad" echoes. Strong Bad pronounces "jamie ericson" as "hamiay eric-SON".}
STRONG BAD: {typing} That's so funny that you should say that Jamie, because I was just thinking how bored I am with your butt, and your face, and your snotty nose.{Pronounces "jamie" as an unintelligible mumble; "snotty nose" echoes.}
I guess the NO LOAFING sign could take a cue from the fast food, soft drink, and bad sports team industries and combat bad sales and decades of losing with a slick logo redesign.
First you squish it, skew it, and turn it all around. Squish it, skew it, and turn it all around.
Then we need to make it all fast and slick and shiny like Flo Jo in a tuxedo. Flo Jo in a tuxedo.
Now it's time to play Color Wheel Roulette. No Whammies, no Whammies.
Awww... Ouch, man.
Now, just when you think you're done, you gotta dip it in molten Plexiglass to give it that "children under 3 are sure to choke on it" goodness.
Oh, wait. Almost forgot the fangs
Well, I don't know how we're going to print it out, seeing as how someone sliced off the back of your monitor. And quit rubbing that plastic bar of soap on the desk. You clearly don't have what it takes to bring NO LOAFING into the digital age. But I does!
Fresh from elementary school cafetoriums and lotto machines comes one of those actually pretty hard to read message board signs...
Easter Eggs
- Click on the "No Loafing" sign when Strong Bad is playing color wheel roulette with it to see the box design for color wheel roulette - stupid home edition.
- When "Do Loafing" starts to scroll by on the sign, click it to see a bumper sticker for Sucky Mountain, Colorado.
- At the end, click on "Jerk" which gives a "conversation" between the Cheat's version of the No Loafing sign and a Coach Z sign:
THE CHEAT'S NO LOAFING SIGN: (Purrs, Growls and then finally Roars)
COACH Z SIGN: (After roar) (runs away) Yorp, yorp, yorp, (exits) yorp
Fun Facts
Explanations
- Green screens are used in filming in order to have an alternate background behind the live action. If an actor or piece of scenery is green, it will be replaced by the background.
- The No Loafing Scrolling Sign is actually a scrolling LED marquee (Pictured).
- Franklin D. Roosevelt likely seems like the "laziest President" to Strong Bad because he suffered from a paralytic illness that restricted his mobility.
Trivia
- The Cheat's computer was updated to an iMac Core Duo (but with a Tandy logo on the front) in this email.
Real World References
- "Flo-Jo" was a nickname for Florence Griffith Joyner, an American athlete.
- "Big Bucks, no Whammies" was commonly chanted by players on the game show Press Your Luck.
- "Redesinging SBemails" at the end is a reference to the many house redesign shows on channels such as HGTV.
