ASCII art is a recurring theme in the Homestar Runner world, especially on Strong Bad's computers. However, most of the ASCII art seen is not possible to make in a normal ASCII art setting – often, different characters are different sizes, or are offset vertically.
Appearances

- Thy Dungeonman and Thy Dungeonman II — The title screens are ASCII art.
- Email some kinda robot — The DVD version has an Easter egg which shows an ASCII art rendering of a robot.
- Email virus — The virus turns Marzipan into ASCII art.
- Email dreamail — An e-marlin jumps from the bottom of the Lappy 486's screen.

- Email from work — The Cheat is rendered in ASCII art on a floppy disk.

- Email rated — In response to the email being right aligned, Strong Bad starts his response by quickly jumping all over the screen in a style similar to that of E. E. Cummings.
- SBCG4AP Collector's DVD — An ASCII version of Marshie will sometimes appear during the menus.
