"This sucks!"

Homestar Runner is out in the winter.

Cast (in order of appearance): Homestar Runner, Strong Sad

Place: A snowy field

Icon: Snowflake

Page title: "WE'RE SNOWED IN!!"

Date: December 23, 2002

Toons — It starts to snow and sleigh bells are heard.
Games — Homestar gets a snowball in the face.
Characters — Strong Sad goes by on a sled while yelling "This sucks!" and hits a tree.
Downloads — Each time the mouse is moved over this button, a new decoration is added to The Stick. The decorations are added in the following order:

Store — It gets dark and starts snowing. Bright light from the moon glows from behind a distant tree.
Email — Homestar gets covered in snow. Homestar's voice is slightly muffled due to his face being covered. Remain over the button and Homestar will blink his eyes rapidly so as to see.

A look into the past?

This is the second Main Page to feature Homestar's current design; the first was Main Page 8.

After the orientation reset to normal after April Fool's 2006, a Main Page 16 with a copyright date of 2001 briefly overlayed the regular one. Homestar would still speak as normal, but no triggered animations would happen other than mouth movements and a visible wisp of Homestar's breath.

The way the Stick is decorated, as well as Homestar's hat, are references to the Peanuts cartoon A Charlie Brown Christmas.
The page title "WE'RE SNOWED IN!!" is a reference to the horror movie The Shining, in which a family was snowed into a mansion and started to see ghosts.
