Week 4, 2007

Bug In Mouth Disease is a toon that was released on May 9, 2005. It was the first full-length toon to feature the main characters in 14 months. After accidentally swallowing a bug, Homestar Runner overreacts and fears that "the good times are over". His attempts to get help from Pom Pom, The King of Town, and Bubs are to no avail. Strong Bad meanwhile tries to watch the 24-hour Caleb Rentpayer marathon, but is constantly interrupted by Strong Sad, who is searching for "The Blue Ones". (More...) watch

Week 3, 2007, Day 7

Homestar Quiz is a Homestar Runner trivia game that also seems to be an application form to Crazy Go Nuts University. After all ten questions are answered, Strong Bad analyzes the results at his Prinicpal's Office and tells the player how he/she did. Unless the player gets a perfect score, Strong Bad will make fun of him/her. If the player gets a perfect score, he/she will get a special treat. (More...) play

Week 3, 2007, Day 6

Fortune Cookies is a "game" that gives out a new fortune every time the player clicks on a fortune cookie. It used to be in the Museum, but it was moved to the Handheld Games Menu when the game menu was remodeled. One of the fortunes contains the URL for Thorax Corporation, a joke Web site created by The Brothers Chaps. Similar fortune cookies are used in an Easter egg for the Strong Bad Email long pants.

Week 3, 2007, Day 5

Audition with Marzipan is a game where the player lays down some phat beats with Marzipan and her ukulele. Once the song is chosen, players can play each instrument by clicking it with a mouse, or typing the associated letter on the keyboard. After each song, Marzipan gives some randomly-generated feedback. One of the songs, "Thoughts on a Bird", would later be used in the toon The Luau. This game is currently accessible through the Handheld Games Menu. (More...) play

Week 3, 2007, Day 4

Homestar Talker is a game where one can click on words to make Homestar Runner say them. Making Homestar say a certain 7-word phrase will make an identical game with Strong Bad accessible. Competing a similar challenge in said game will make a hidden main page available. The games have the current character style used in them, but their older voices. A similar game starring Coach Z appears at the end of A Jorb Well Done. (More...) play

Week 3, 2007, Day 3

Hairstyle Runner is a simple game where one can create a hairstyle on Homestar Runner's picture by dragging the pieces of "iron filings" with the cursor acting as a magnet. Players can also view a gallery of Hairstyle Runner designs. A parody of the classic game Wooly Willy, Hairstyle Runner was supposedly made in Prance. Hairstyle Runner was also featured prominently in the Strong Bad Email homestar hair, much to Strong Bad's disgust. (More...) play

Week 3, 2007, Day 2

Strong Libs is a parody of the game Mad Libs featuring The Brothers Strong. They have the same basic concept as Mad Libs, where the player supplies various nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc. These key words are placed into blank spaces within a short story, the results of which can be very funny. The Strong Bad libs generate humorous insults and put-downs while Strong Mad's are all shouts of doom and destruction. Strong Sad's naturally offer depressing poetry. An additional Strong Lib is available to play while waiting for A Jumping Jack Contest to load, as well as in an Easter egg of lackey. (More...)  play

Week 3, 2007, Day 1

Dancin' Bubs is an old game in which the player can make Bubs do a variety of movements with his arms, head, and legs, including a few flips, twists, and spins. There are four songs to choose from, among which are The System is Down from techno, Everybody to the Limit, and the song from the site's Intro. One of the four available backgrounds shows two characters no longer seen in modern Homestar Runner cartoons: Homeschool Winner and Champeen. This game is currently accessible through the Handheld Games Menu. (More...)  play

Week 2, 2007

Stinkoman is Strong Bad's 20X6 counterpart. He is an amalgam of anime clichés, including blue hair, big eyes, a blocky sort of body and an obsession with challenging and fighting. He was introduced in the email japanese cartoon, but his name was first mentioned in island, where Homestar Runner called Strong Bad "Stinkoman". His birthday is on the sixth of January, one week before Trogdor's. He seems more than willing to eat dirt, since he has done so on one occasion. Stinkoman apparently has a cell phone, as he claims to when he invites Marzipan to a challenge in Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 8.0. He has the ability to call his ship, the Stinkowing, when he whistles. Stinkoman also stars in the game Stinkoman 20X6, which The Brothers Chaps introduced in the NYU Talk and later released on the website. According to alternate universe, he is friends with Vector Strong Bad, who functions as his "training simulator". (More...)

Week 1, 2007

Cold One is the most popular brand of beer in Free Country, USA. They are shipped in brown, nondescript bottles. The Cold One motto is "A One that isn't cold, is scarcely a One at all." Although there has been some debate as to whether they are actually alcoholic or not, the Kerrek rejects Cold Ones because he is a teetotaler in the email "for kids". Also, since the Strong Bad screensaver displays "Premium Alcoholic Cold Ones", and that Room Temp-A-Ture Ones are "brewed in Foreign Lands", the conclusion must be that a Cold One is a refreshing type of beer. In addition, "Warm Ones" could possibly be referring to the misconception that the British prefer drinking their beer at near room temperature. (More...)
