Haldo Hi, I'm Marty, a.k.a. Super Martyo Brother, a.k.a. SMB.
You've probably come to my page to find out about me, so here are some fun facts/random video links.
How I found the various things I didHomestarrunner.comOne day, when I was 9, my cousin came over to my house and showed me the First Time Here? 'toon (unlike some friends who plunge right into the toons) and the Reddest Raddish. I was instantly hooked. Strong Bad E-mailBelieve it or not, when I first saw Strong Bad Email on the 'toons menu, I thought it meant Strong Bad E-cards. Seriously. I avoided it until I decided to give one to my sister (although I didn't). The first one I watched was caffeine. I laughed so hard, the pop I was drinking came out of my nose (and it hurt). My favorite line to this day is: STRONG SAD: No, no. Parakeet. The Wiki
The pretty much most awesome people in the worldIt's Dot Com — Was extremly welcoming and changing my Username for me. bless him and his sysopness People who can play the guitarT(w)een Guy Squad!!!The T(w)een Guy Squad is a group I made up. Any guy between the ages of 10-19 is eligible to join the group and mainly it's just a group of homestar-loving guys who have a cool userbox ( ^_^ ) If you would like to join, please leave a message on my talk page under the section T(w)een Guy Squad, and add this userbox to your userboxes (click edit and copy the code):

My Major Contributions and other things I'm proud of.So far, they are...
Unofficial funny H*R-related quoteSpecial thanks to Loafing for letting me borrow his idea. In whatever order I fell like putting them in. For multiple character quotes, a key-type thing is provided (i.e. the long pants quote Marzipan's speech is in italics therefore here name is italicized).
Final Words"I'm saving the best for last." "We're 12 miles out of Chicago, with a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarretes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses." "Hit it!" Click this if you want something to do Question of the week: Based on your definition last week, are you an active user? Please don't post your answer on my talk page. What if we had quote boxes? Like at the top, or floating left/right Wikipedia-style... Ob'm know. I've added a lot to the tops of articles and sections (Oscar Wilde-style) and it might be nice to (a) standardize w/ a template (b) do something a little snazzier than blockquotes. Some rough style explorations made by editing notices:
Would certainly be open to moving this to the HRWiki:Project space if it's something that other editors think is worth pursuing beyond my fiddlin' around. My thought process was to identify a very basic layout — i.e. what color/outline is the box, do we italicize or "enclose in quotes" or both or neither — and do basic problem solving to make sure it can work alongside a right-floating image thumb rather than solve for every case. I was mainly referencing how Template:Quote box on WP is used (i.e. for a phrase shared by only one speaker) to avoid getting caught up in how to deal with more complicated scenarios. As far as non-standard quote examples, some articles to look at include Batman, How do you type with boxing gloves on?, and the UMFM snippets on most main character pages. -- Bleu Ninja
Shark-Tooth Bubs From "A Date with Homestar Runner" at New York University, 2005: MATT CHAPMAN: We were getting these stuffed animals of The Cheat made. To show us that they were the right people for the job, this company in Hong Kong made some little six-inch plush dolls of our characters. Most of them they got pretty good! And then... Bubs they just completely misinterpreted. Shark-Tooth Bubs is a plush doll prototype of Bubs that sharply deviates from his character design. Rather than two mismatched eyes, one black and one blue with a white ring, he has two black eyes and a large protruding white-ringed horn; his teeth are pointed and shark-like rather than rectangular.

Rather than two mismatched eyes, one black and one blue with a white ring, he has two black eyes and a large protruding white-ringed horn; his teeth are pointed and shark-like rather than rectangular. The plush toy was created by a company in Hong Kong, during the pre-production of the Kick The Cheat dolls. To demonstrate their ability to adapt The Cheat to three dimensions, the toy company produced sample plush dolls of Strong Bad, Homestar Runner, Marzipan, and Bubs (the first two of which have also been shown). Though the first three were created largely on-model, the manufacturer "misinterpreted pretty much everything" about Bubs's odd design, resulting in the inclusion of fangs and a horn. Easter eggDecompiled Flash Easter EggsFrom a 2007 talk at the Georgia Tech library: MATT CHAPMAN: People are poking around, they decompile our Flash files and look at stuff. So we've started adding a few things here and there for the nerds that do that stuff. There's one where these two Homestars appear — like, it appears that there's two Homestars, you can barely see the edge of his feet on that side of the frame, that's in the actual cartoon. But then, to make it consistent in the universe, one of them has a mustache. But you only see it if you decompile the Flash thing and be like, "Oh, that's Homestar with a mustache." Appearances

Abdi LaRue From a @StrongBadActual Tweet from 16 April 2020: Abdi is real! An early fan I actually had to ask to specifically email me because nobody knew I had an email address yet! In 2001, Abdi LaRue made Homestar Runner history as the first of hundreds to have an email personally answered by Strong Bad. Future Strong Bad Emails would make brief tribute to this unknown figure.

 STRONG BAD: If you’re watching/playing my stuff for the canon, you might be doing it wrong. Inconsistencies large and small occur throughout the toons portraying the Homestar Runner universe. The Homestar Runner body of work is primarily created independently by The Brothers Chaps, without use of a dedicated style guide or continuity supervisor, allowing for discrepancies to accumulate over the 20-plus years of production. Furthermore, Homestar Runner relies heavily on whimsical, surreal, and absurd humor. Much like comedic inspirations Looney Tunes or The Three Stooges, toons are largely independent of one another; though some elements remain as constants, various minor facets of settings or characterization may be changed or ignored to better tell a joke or set a scene. Because Homestar Runner is not narrative-driven, complete consistency and total continuity are not goals and very minor inconsistencies are common between cartoons. The site's FAQ recommends that fans remember "it's just a cartoon and you probably shouldn't worry about it." Inconsistencies within the Homestar Runner universe
There's no— there's no style guide, or continuity— we don't have a continuity person working on set. We're gonna play "Name That Inconsistency" later on if you want to join us. There's no style guide. We don't have a continuity person working on set.

From the flag day commentary: MIKE CHAPMAN: We're not very consistent with our scale.
