"YEEOW! Hot bees!"

Strong Bad's relationship with Bubs is a mix of numerous feelings. More often than not, they get along well. Many times, Bubs does business with Strong Bad (and vice-versa), sometimes in dishonest ways. However, even these two have their brushes with each other once in a while.

Strong Bad and Bubs getting along

• Pumpkin Carve-nival — Strong Bad, disguised as Homestar, gives Bubs' elaborate pumpkin a "not last place" ribbon.
• Email looking old — Bubs is one of the people Strong Bad calls to his emergency marketing meeting, referring to him as one of "the best, the brightest, the people I hate the least."
• Jibblies 2 — Strong Bad includes Bubs with the "good characters".

Strong Bad and Bubs working together

• Email 12:00 — Bubs solves the problem of the VCR's clock blinking "12:00" repeatedly by attaching an alarm clock to the VCR with duct tape.
• Email unused emails — One of the ways Strong Bad deals with emails that he rejects is to sell 5,000 of the email addresses to Bubs to use in his "free weekly spamvertisements", getting a quarter for each email, $1,250 in all.
• Email stunt double — In Dangeresque II: This Time, It's Not Dangeresque 1, Strong Bad obviously portrays Dangeresque while Bubs portrays an unnamed villain.
• Email unnatural — Strong Bad and the others try to figure out different ways to save Bubs when he becomes a giant.

Strong Bad and Bubs conflicting with each other

• A Jumping Jack Contest — Strong Bad and Bubs are two of the competitors in the titular competition.
• Email the process — Bubs insults Strong Bad's email show, prompting The Cheat to give one of Bubs' feet a hot foot and getting the other into an active beehive.
• Email virus — Bubs destroyed the virus by blasting it with a shotgun, but he also destroyed Strong Bad's Compy 386 in the process, leaving Strong Bad devastated.
• Email part-time job — Strong Bad takes a job at Bubs' Concession Stand, but he can't take time off enough to end the email (Bubs had already berated him for being late), so he just quits.
• Email looking old — Strong Bad says to Bubs, as well as Strong Mad, The Cheat, and Marzipan, "These are all terrible ideas. What do you think I'm not payin' ya for?"
• Email original — Bubs is outraged with Strong Bad thinking he was not the original Bubs and that there was a different Bubs before he came along and forces him to rebuff this possibility.
