Revision as of 16:58, 3 May 2005

could someone transcribe the lyrics to the theme song for stinkoman k?

• I think perhaps Homestar was trying to --Buz

Homestar's Head look seriously misshapen in the easter egg. --Buz

Yeah, like his old school conterpart unknown

In the transcript, he's referred to as Stinko Man, shouldn't that be Stinkoman?--Dwedit 00:15, 30 Nov 2004 (MST)

Pan Pan

Isn't Pan Pan a reference to the father in Ranma 1/2 who changed into a Panda and held up signs because he could not talk?

• Yeah, since pandas are native to China, and this is a Japanese cartoon, this is most likely a reference to Ranma 1/2

Stinko Man?

Why is it that in the transciption stinkoman's name has a space in it? (Also, I'll transcribe the lyrics to the 20x6 theme song) →evin290 19:06, 25 Feb 2005 (MST)

Probably because the easter egg refers to him as "Stinko Man K 20X6". --Venusy 02:32, 26 Feb 2005 (GMT)

TeeBee

Actually, a Japanese person would say テレビ, or "terebi", not Teebee.

Haiku?

I really don't think that what Strong Bad says at the beginning of the email should be considered a haiku. Just because there's a line with five syllables followed by a line with seven syllables followed by a line with five syllables doesn't mean it's a haiku. I think that the fact that part of the "haiku" is simply the salutation of the email he receieved really kinda proves that this wasn't their intent.

Closed STUFF

Oolong's Namesake (DECLINED)

Someone named Oolong Singy is credited for Combolations in the cartoon, this may be a reference to Oolong the pig from Dragon Ball or Oolong the rabbit, whose owner is Japanese.

• Decline. I figure the reference is most likely to Oolong, the traditional Chinese tea enjoyed throughout Asia. The characters mentioned here are named after the tea. --Beatfox 07:49, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Decline. Always decline TTATO facts! -- tomstiff 13:48, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• I would second this if I knew what TTATO stood for. (Second is NOT my vote) Stave it off, Fizz123, and now you can count to three.
  • Decline. TTATO actually is supposed to be spelled TTATOT, and stands for "This, That, And That Other Thing." -- Joshua 20:34, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Sheds a tear My own little abbreviation is growing up. --Jay 02:18, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• May be declined Dasrik 23:46, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• 42'd -- Yeah, I always suspected it refered to Oolon Colophid, Lem Sportsinterviews' counterpart from HHTG, so we must therefor all be wrong simultaneously :) MetaStar 22:38, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • COMMENTUm...42'd? What's that supposed to mean? I know we're on the subject og h2g2, but still. TakuaKaita600
  • Comment 42'd is probably a combination refrence to forty "second'd" and "two'd." Always good to see a fan of H2G2.--homestar3.14 17:16, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

So cool an unseen email (DECLINED)

Strong Bad says "So cool an e-mail, I thought you would enjoy it," as if he has read it before he replied to it. However, in other emails (such as part-time job or your friends) he acts surprised to see the content, as if he has not read it before.

• Decline I have trouble saying why, but I know there's something wrong with this. Be it that it's part of the haiku, or something else, I don't think this really needs to be stated. --Jay 05:23, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • So cool a Decline, I thought I would Second it. This is a parody of the Klez email virus that used the infamous subject line "so cool a flash,enjoy it". It's not meant to imply that Strong Bad has actually read the email beforehand. --Beatfox 08:00, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • That's it. Thanks. --Jay 08:11, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Second. -- tomstiff 14:13, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
      • Third. It's just part of the song. -- Super Sam 07:26, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • 'Eh, Decline! This is seriously a Klez spoof. I even received a Klez email, and it gave my old computer a virus. ---the spludge 21:05, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • So cool a decline, I thought I would THIRD it even! TakuaKaita600 17:29, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
