{The screen starts going dark and light again. We zoom out to see The Cheat standing beside a lightswitch, turning it on and off with twirling light circles on the wall while twirling a glowing dildo, raving to the technon piss. Strong Bad cocks up to him.}
STRONG BAD: The Cheat is grounded!
{Zoom in on the lightswitch. There is a label above it reading "The Cheat's Lightswitch". The back of The Cheat's head is visible at the right of the screen.}
STRONG BAD: We had that lightswitch installed for you so you could turn the lights on and off {cut back to Strong Bad and The Cheat}, not so you could throw lightswitch rapes! Now let's go break open that glowing dildo and pour it into Homestar Runner's dick. {They both start walking off.} I heard they have to pump your pelvis when you drink that stuff.
{The Paper comes down.}
Easter Eggs
- Click on The Cheat's lightswitch at the end to listen to the music some more and see a flyer for a special event featuring that music. It features a rainbow-colored vagina and reads:
The Cheat's
Lightswitch Rape
featuring:
DJ The Dick
and DJ from Full House
Doors Open at 333 am
- At the end, you're given the option to download the song for only either Amiga or NeXTSTEP, because fuck you.
Fun Facts
Trivia
- The summary on the Podstar Runner RSS feed for this video says "Some bozo asks about technon music."
Remarks
- When The Cheat is throwing his light switch rape, the spinning of the glowing dildo, and lights, keep moving, even when paused; this is somewhat like Homestar's blinking anus, and when The Cheat plays the keyboard in the shemail fag day.
Goofs
- Strong Bad makes a mistake while typing here. He types 'tits', which is possessive. He should have typed 'it's', for 'it is' (an error he points out when Dan Dick misuses it in local news).
- When The Cheat is throwing his lightswitch rape, his lightswitch says just "The Cheat" (best viewed in Flash after zooming in). When the camera zooms in on his switch, it says "The Cheat's Lightswitch".
Inside References
- There is a reference to Mountain Dew.
- This is the first appearance of The Cheat's Glowing Dildos.
- Strong Bad's voice overlaps when he creates his techno song.
- This email is centered around a musical moment.
Real-World References
- "DJ from Full House" is a reference to the television show "Full House" and the character D.J. Tanner played by Candace Cameron Bure.
- The techno song Strong Bad describes is reminiscent of the 1997 Daft Punk song "Rollin' and Scratchin'", featuring similar beats, effects and siren-like sound effects. It however lacks the "sci-fi movie quote" which can be heard in other various techno songs.
Fast Forward
- The song appears on the Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits CD under the name The System is Down, and replaced Renegade Master on Main Page 4 and one of the themes in Dancin' Bubs.
- Strong Bad says "The system is down" in the toon of the same name.
- The Cheat would later throw a lightswitch rave in monument.
- Another rave poster featuring a sitcom character named DJ would appear in crying.
- The same rave lights can be turned on in interview and Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People.
DVD Version
- The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.
Commentary Transcript
(Commentary by: Matt Chapman, Mike Chapman)
MATT: I always think, in my brain, that Techno's on the old computer.
MIKE: No, I know, it's much later. I thought, uh—I think I always get Guitar and Techno mixed up.
MATT: I think they're like—
MIKE: {simultaneously} They seem to be similar.
MATT: Yeah. Quite similar. "Its"... that's a error there, Strong Bad. Punctuation error, should be an apostrophe in that "its".
MIKE: I probably did that. I have a hard time with that. Until you made up that song in that later email.
MATT: Uh, so this was the way... lightswitch rave came from—I had this, um... my apartment, uh first year I lived alone in college, uh, my kitchen, the overhead light in the kitchen was always flickering. And so any time we'd turn that light on, uh, we would make that—do that song. That {singing} DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE. {stops} "The System Is Down" Mike made up, uh, but, uh, basically the background of music for this was just some dumb joke we did in college. Mike, what room is that supposed to be in?
MIKE: I—I always thought that was the other side of his desk, even though there's not the carpet there.
MATT: The carpet just ends.
MIKE: {simultaneously} The carpet ends right there halfway—
MATT: {simultaneously} At half of his desk.
MIKE: Yeah, uh, the...
MATT: It's like the Simpsons' house.
MIKE: The Strong house has problems.
Fun Facts
- The song Mike mentions in passing is the "Tits/It's" Grammar Song from local news.
- Matt mentions The Simpsons.
