The Turtle

Strong Bad's turtle, pre-oatmealing

Turtles are reptiles, and one turtle in particular has been spotted several times in the Homestar Runner universe, usually associated with Strong Bad. It first appears when Buckethand Strong Bad uses his bucket hand to dump oatmeal on it. It appears in 3D in Homestar Ruiner, when it is one of the obstacles that you need to jump over in the Tri-Annual Race to the End of the Race. Strong Bad flips it upside down (along with Strong Mad) in sbemail206, as an April Fools Day prank. A boy named "Geoff" found a turtle named Slowbie (or Mr. Shoe) in his shoe in a newspaper clipping from time capsule. It is unknown if this is the same turtle.

Appearances

• Email new hands
• Email time capsule (possibly)
• Homestar Ruiner
• sbemail206

(I think this would be a fine page. It would be longer than The Mountain Goat. But I would be fine if we didn't make it. It's just an idea.)

Storybook Character Variations

In the Storybook World, characters look like their old versions from the Original Book and the Museum Sketchbook. The Poopsmith and Homsar are the only main characters to lack this variation.

{The Lappy buzzes and displays "ERROR - insufficient email song."}

STRONG BAD: What?! Must be outta practice. Okay, here goes... song is long, is long, is long, is song is an email song

{A "thump" is heard and the lappy shakes.}

STRONG BAD:Well, sorry! Jeez! You don't have to get violent.

{Some more thumps.}

STRONG BAD: Wait a minute, what is that?!

{Cut to wide.}

{Homestar Runner has made a small shanty underneath the desk. A sign says "Homestar's Place." Homestar has a juice box skewered on a stick and is roasting it over a flashlight.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh hey, Strong Bad. Juice box?

STRONG BAD: Homestar! Since when did I say you could take up residence underneath my sbemail desk?!

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, well, you hadn't used it in so long I just figured... you know... squatter's rights.

STRONG BAD: I'm about to squat on your rights if you don't get outta here, you filthy hobo!

{Homestar stands up}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Aw, come on, Mr. Roper! I could help out around the house! I'm a real super athlete. You oughta see me climb and stuff. Maybe you should introduce me to—

STRONG BAD: Yeah, alright shut up. I suppose I could use your help. The Lappy's broken and it says I need some bozo to sing it an email song or else I can't check-a my email.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ooh! Email songs are my forte. Or perhaps my fiftay!

{Cut to Lappy. Both Homestar and Strong Bad's heads are reflected into the screen.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ya gotta, email ding-dong ding-dong, I wanna, email ding-dong ding-dong, I gotta—.

the lappy displays "Close enough" and the email comes up.

subject: kitchen appliance

Dear STRONG BAD!!!
If you could be a kitchen appliance what would it be? and why?
waiting in anticipation.

Victoria AUS

{They both start reading at the same time.}

STRONG BAD: Hey, one at a time!

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, okay.

{Strong Bad starts reading the email from the beginning. Homestar does too, at the same time, albeit in a higher voice.}

STRONG BAD: Stoopface! Look, I'll tell ya what. We'll alternate words. Dear...

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Dear... I mean, STRONG!

STRONG BAD: BAD!

{This continues. Homestar reads "Victoria". Strong Bad says:}

STRONG BAD: from austree-alia-lenberger combo. Well, Vicky—

HOMESTAR: — you worthless sack o' crap!

STRONG BAD: Homestar, no! She might be slightly attractive...or loaded.

HOMESTAR: Just tryin' to help.

{Homestar's head leaves the screen.}

STRONG BAD: Well, Vischyssoise, who hasn't spent romantic nights in front of the fireplace, gazing into that special someone's eyes, talking about what kitchen appliance they would be? I had {small cough} girlfriend in {small cough} college that used to want to be a panini press. In fact that was her name I think. Good ol', hot ol' Panini Press. But I always saw myself as a beigish-tan 200 cc food processor called the Oh-bliterator Thousand! I'd look as much like me as a food processor possibly could.

{Cut to a beige food processor.}

STRONG BAD: ...which apparently isn't very much. i'd have four my-mouth colored buttons labelled puree, frappe—

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Crushe, smushe, and offe. {The buttons appear as he says them.} Potatoes would curly-cue themselves at the very sight of me! I could julienne a phonebook into a metal can. And maybe turn whatsit into gold!

{Cut to the King of Town sitting in his castle, watching TV. He spit-takes.}

KING OF TOWN: EXCUSE ME?!

{Cut to the Oh-bliterator Thousand on a counter}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: {offscreen} It would have cool flames all on it and gashuffers comin' out of the sides, and shoot lasers at hot girls!

{Cool flames and gashuffers appear on it. It shoots lasers, and there are some female screams.}

STRONG BAD: Homestar, NO! {Cut to the Computer Room} You don't need to go all Strong Bad on this one. No lasers this time!

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Cool flames!!

STRONG BAD: BEIGISH TAN!!

HOMESTAR RUNNER: GASHUFFERS!!

{Cut to the Oh-bliterator Thousand. A mouth and eyes appear on the food processor.}

FOOD PROCESSOR: STOP FIGHTING! STOP FIGHTING! ALL YOU GUYS EVER DO ANYMORE IS FIGHT! AND I'M SICK OF IT! I'M GOING TO MY ROOM!

{It storms off the counter.}

STRONG BAD: Woah. Guess we upset our imaginary food processor stepson.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, he's just going through a phase. AND NO INTENDO, YOUNG MAN! YOU HEAR ME?!

{A yellow explosion shape pops up that reads "That's Right!"}

SB: That's right! You get the Oh-bliterator, the cleaning kit, and the interesting branch all for only 20 low payments of 4 easy installments!

{The objects appear as he says them.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, I'd be a fork! {Cut to a fork against a blue background.} A taped up fork! {Tape covers the fork.} A brown taped up fork! {The fork turns brown.} We'd live right next to each other on Mother Goose's countertop! We would alternate words while reciting clever rhymes that help kids remember to do their chores.

{It shows them on a counter top in their kitchen appliance forms.}

HOMESTAR AND STRONG BAD: {Alternating, with Strong Bad starting and ending} Make your bed, or you'll be dead, by morning.

{A green plastic bag sealer bounces onscreen and repeats, higher:}

COACH Z: By morning!

{Cut to Marzipan}

MARZIPAN: Excuse me!

{Cut to Strong Bad, Homestar, and Coach Z crammed on the kitchen counter in various ways.}

STRONG BAD: oh, hey marzipan, we was just uh, looking
HOMESTAR RUNNER: out
STRONG BAD: from
HOMESTAR RUNNER: within
COACH Z: ourselves?!

MARZIPAN: {in a sarcastic tone} I really don't know why you guys don't have girlfriends.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: But what about—?

MARZIPAN: You heard me.

{The Paper comes down}

Commentary Transcript

MIKE: {while Gavin is on the Lappy} Looks like we took a long break after this— before this one, not after this one.

MATT: We may have taken one after it too. {pause} Gavin— When Gavin shows up on your doorstep— darkens your doorstep. {pause} Talk about it, Mike.

MIKE: Uh... it's early in the morning for us today. {Matt laughs} It's our first commentary of the day.

MATT: Uh, so... uh, we uh, thought about, uh... when we made this—

MIKE: {simultaneously} Making a... a geddup noise email, instead.

MATT: Right.

MIKE: ...when we made this.

MATT: We should... we should do that sometime.

MIKE: Make a geddup noise email.

{pause}

MIKE: Is— Is he going to eat that juice box?

MATT: {laughs} So, um... what kitchen appliance would you be, Mike?

MIKE: I would be a... not— b— I don't know, Mike!

MATT: Yeah, uh, I would be, like, a refridgerator. Or maybe a microwave.

{short pause}

MATT: Good ol' Panini Press.

MIKE: {overlapping Matt, indistinguishable}

MATT: We, um— We were originally going to... animate potatoes... curly-cuing themselves at the sight of the Oh-bliterator.

{pause}

MATT: Go—

MIKE: Ah— say something, Matt!

MATT: Do you?

MIKE: I do. I think it just reminds me of the Match Game—

MATT: {overlapping Mike, imitating the generic announcer} That's right, Kevin.

MATT: Boardelectrix has, umm— what else is there? There's been a few.

MIKE: There's the—

MATT: What was the one from the Pom Pom... bonus email?

MIKE: Ohhh yeah....

MATT: Family resemblance, spelled wrong. {pause} This is a... good song.

MIKE: Ha!

MATT: We—

MIKE: Postal Service would be proud.

MATT: {laughing} Totally me doing my best— what's that guy's name, is that Ben Gibbard?

MIKE: I don't know.

MATT: Sam Beam. Sam Rockwell. {pause} Jim James. {pause} Oh, King of Town.

{both laugh}

MATT: The king booed him— he does that a lot.

MIKE: He's done that before, he answers himself.

MATT: Yeah.

MIKE: Or boos himself.

{pause until The Teach appears}

MATT: I like that this implies The Cheat wasn't on board. Like The Cheat was just like "Strong Bad that's disgusting. No, I'm not gonna do some Geddup Noise show with you." And he's like {Strong Bad voice} "All right, fine, we don't need— we don't need The Cheat. Strong Bad— Strong Mad, put on a blue sock." {pause} We came up with the Coches mountains— was that on a flight somewhere?

MIKE: Yeah.

MATT: I remember a long time ago, we were flying somewhere and it was going to be one of those, uh, you know, cut-into-the-middle-of-a-conversation situations.

MIKE: Right. Talking about snowboarding in the Coches.

MATT: Yeah.

{long pause}

MATT: Did you ever have a, uh, "This is not a Fugazi T-shirt"?

MIKE: I didn't.

MATT: Eh, I did not either.

MIKE: I was too cool to have a Fugazi T-Shirt.

MATT: Yeah. I had a "This is not a This is not a Fugazi — this is not a Fugazi" Fu— Fugayzi. {pause} Acts of rage...

{pause until end} {microphone bumps}

MATT: {softly} Was that all right?
