Pom Pom segment

Anyone want to bet how long it'll take before someone claims this is a Naruto reference? Danny Lilithborne 07:41, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

You mean like here? --DorianGray

D'oh! Danny Lilithborne 07:44, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I was a bit fast on that one. But somehow you've just proven that it's obviously Naruto :-P  Loafing 08:44, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Did any of you notice that part of this segment contradicts the "Strong Bad is in jail catoon"? In the begining of said cartoon, Strong Bad and The Cheat run up to Bub's Concession Stand which is shown right next to the woods. But when Pom Pom does that huge jump in this segment, it appears that Strong Badia is located between the woods and the Concession Stand. Weird o_0. Scholar of Homestar 15:17, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Obviously Naruto, or Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, or House of Flying Daggers, or any other film where people fly through the trees. Actually I'm inclined to say it's more of a reference to live action martial arts because of way Pom Pom hovers above the ground before seems to parody the effect of using counterweight harnesses to give the effect of actors jumping incredibly high. I've never seen any of the ninjas on Naruto do that. PolarBoy 16:22, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Actually, it's a reference to Prowlies at the River: http://www.biteycastle.com/prowlies.html

Or it could be any movie/cartoon with lots of jumping through a forrest. as stated above.

First forest

Is it worth mentioning that this is the first instance of a forest in the standard animation style? 216.232.210.238 08:07, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Sure. I mean, that could be the creepy halloween forest during summer, but still...--Jnelson09 14:09, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

pi=pie?

Does anyone else think the Pi reference in this and weclome back could tie in with the pie running joke?

I think you got it confused. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 08:17, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Eggselent

I don't believe that Homestar says "Eggs, can I get you gentlemen..." I think he says the more logical "And". Thoughts? --Jay (Gobble) 08:27, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Definatly sounds like "And" to me. --phlip ^T_C 08:34, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

I leaning towards "And".  Loafing 09:18, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Raising the Seek Bar...

Seek bars not spake here.

Lapper removed the Transcript edit about Cave Strong Bad's feet poking out from under the tar pit. He said it only comes up when you use a Seek Bar. I present to you: exhibit A. --Jay (Gobble) 08:48, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

I removed it because I checked on that a few hours ago and thought it was only the seek bar. But I did a very sloppy check. You were absolutely right. (btw, I'm not Lapper)  Loafing 08:51, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Sorry. Guess you're not the only one who did a sloppy check. Happens to the best of us. And me, too. --Jay (Gobble) 08:56, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

From the front to the back...

So these pants we are staring at: Are these from the front or the back? I can't really tell. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 09:25, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

I say the front. Loafing 09:34, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Back, and thus a double entendre on "end." 68.5.95.211 12:21, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Nice idea, but the same image is shown in the beginning and in the end. Loafing 12:23, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Excuse Me While I Kiss This Guy

I think the lyrics for "Brain Sister" are wrong (The trancscriber didn't seem too confident anyway). The line "She's a {mile?} away" sounds like it ends "all day" to me, not "away". Obviously "She's a mile all day" makes no sense at all, So I'm pretty sure that whole line is wrong. Can anybody make it out? PolarBoy 16:26, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

And I don't seem able to manage any more than "She {three syllables} all day". I'm giving up for now. PolarBoy 16:35, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Fries and Catsup

Arn't they the same as from the e-mail funny, from the "Computer Catsup" scene?

Yes, unless you count "computer Catsup" as different. Steve Talk Contributions 17:33, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
