Biography

Strong Bad is one of the most well-known characters on HomestarRunner.com. He started out as the villain who always tried to cheat his way to the top but was always doomed to fail before Homestar Runner. Now he's less of a villain and more of a highly expanded form of comic relief. He answers e-mails with a passion, usually every Monday or Tuesday. He will make fun of your grammar, punctuation, and spelling, but doesn't seem to be worried about his own. He also writes and illustrates the Teen Girl Squad comics. He's Strong Sad's big brother and Strong Mad's little brother. His is the dominant personality and he loves to push everyone around: he's often abusing Homestar, kicking The Cheat, prank-calling Marzipan, or tormenting Strong Sad (although he and Strong Sad did seem to get along when they were younger). He has boxing gloves for hands (that always have square window reflections on them, no matter where he is), a lucha libre mask for a head, and it is confirmed that the mask IS actually his head in this interview. His mouth is rectangular, though it often becomes round when he says words with the letter "o". His favorite saying is (or was for a time) "holy crap", though he hates when people use the word crap when signing emails. He also hates to be asked "Hey, Strong Bad, how do you type with boxing gloves on?". He usually does what he does best when he gets an e-mail like that: DELETED!!! The blue diamond on his face also gives him the power to mentally open Cold Ones and even pop Homestar's hat off his head. Strong Bad owns his own country: Strongbadia, a barren field behind the Dumpsters that is completely devoid of any sentient life.

Strong Bad talks a big line, claiming to be a criminal mastermind, a muscle man, and totally popular with the ladies, though there is little evidence of any of these claims, but no shortage of evidence that they are all untrue. Strong Bad refuses to acknowledge this however, and continues unfazed with his delusions of grandeur. He thinks Marzipan likes him when in fact she "really doesn't like him at all." He seems to have a grudge against birds, as shown in issues of Teen Girl Squad. He also loves to listen to Peter Frampton, Limozeen and Taranchula. His favorite show is Caleb Rentpayer. His love for older technology (cassette tapes, command prompt computers, old video games, laserdiscs) and the titles of events such as "Awexome Cross '98", and "TrogdorCon '97" suggest that Strong Bad is "stuck in the 90's." Despite his love of the nineties, he seems to despise and destroy anything from any previous decade, like 8-Tracks, TVs that lost their essence in the 70s, and the Nintendo Entertainment System.

Strong Bad has sung many hit singles, his most popular being "Everybody to the Limit". He also stars as the protagonist in the blockbuster action series "Dangeresque". He works with Homestar and The Cheat at an unnamed tech company, though despite this fixed income, he seems to have financial troubles as he often attempts money making solutions of questionable legitimacy and burns his bills with his BMW lighter. Strong Bad is somewhat prejudiced; he has been banned from the UK, and often ridicules non-English speakers on their e-mails. He also hates children and old people.

STRONG BAD: Yeah, that's right. So I'm gonna have to charge you double. You know, since you're both here.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: That sounds reasonable! {pronounces it re-ZON-able}

STRONG BAD: Okay, I only accept gold nuggets. Or maybe Denver Nuggets. ...Whatever you got on ya. Chicken nuggets?
