Self-referential?

The talk about SBEmail fan fiction, should we include a link to Fanstuff in this article? And who do we crown the president of The Deleteheads? wbwolf (t | ed) 14:53, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Van Mundegaard

Okay, I can't remember how to spell it or when he was last referred to, so I don't know where to link, but it looks to me as though the Deleteheads membership card is signed by Van Mundegaard. And why do I get this weird feeling of Strong Bad insulting me for asking such a question after today's email? :p --Jay (Gobble) 16:42, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Ah, found it. It's "Mundegaarde". --Jay (Gobble) 16:43, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

12-times man

Should 12-times man have his own article? The Thnikkaman has one. Don't say jorb 101

If he makes a second appearance, maybe. – The Chort 19:05, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Do you think 12-times man is a hybrid of "I can do it 9 times" and "I'll take it. I'll take 12!"? It's just the kind of reference mixing fans tend to do. 76.167.90.250 00:35, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

1. 12-times Man is a variation of Strong Sad, if he reappears (ala The Thnikkaman) he could merit a page. I doubt the "I'll take 12" line is involved here, though. Though I could be wrong. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  03:38, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

but why the #12? 76.167.90.250 06:57, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Twelve is an amusing number, apparently. I frequently use the phrase "The number 12?" as an inside joke (often preceeded by "A Volkswagon? A mailbox?"). --DorianGray 06:59, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Gron Sad's eyes

when strong sad is presiding over his meeting, his eyes seem farther apart than usual. does anyone else see that? --Zatchman 18:23, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

yeah. --Alex H.

Coupla things

First, and this is very annoying, but I can't see Homsar. I see Senor Cardgage talking to a gym bag or something. Is Homsar an Easter Egg?

Also, in Real-Life references, I'm pretty sure "Deleteheads" is a reference to Rush Limbaugh's "Dittoheads."

Finally, this was a great sbemail! One of my favorites in a while. - l'anglais

Actually, I thought "Deleteheads" was a play on the word "Deleted", especially the way SB says it.--Bobsmith84 19:49, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

When I saw it I thought of The Grateful Dead's DeadheadsHooray4Trogdor95 20:58, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

OK, just watched again, now I get Homsar and no Senor Cardgage. They appear to alternate when I watch them. Kind of weird ...

For what it's worth: the notebook in front of Strong Sad reads: Meeting

1) Pledge 2) Hosting 3) Fhqwhfest 4) Blinkg (or perhaps Blinky) Fun - l'anglais

The "heads" is not a reference to any one particular fan club, many members go by these same types. Jimmy Buffet has his Parrotheads and several country music artists have their own weirdly named fans. Is this the first time there is a random scene?--SDSpivey 17:15, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

• No. The original Senor Cardgage email had him saying different random things to Strong Mad. It seems that there were some others, but I don't remember and am too lazy to go looking right now.

What have you all done to this section?? -Jdhannan 22:48, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Gardenias?

Cardgage (man, so cool!) says something pronounced care-a-GEEN-an. —Einstein runner () 23:13, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Where's this? Carrageenan is a food additive derived from seaweed. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  03:41, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh, I see. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  03:44, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Abdi LaRue

Should we give her her own article? Post-robot apperances include flashback, pom pom, and fan club. Bad Bad Guy 04:02, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

*ahem* Wikipedia:Abdi Loafing 04:09, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh wow, I didn't notice that Abdi LaRue is actually mentioned there. Just wanted to point out that he's a guy ;-) Loafing 04:10, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Actually, TBC themselves don't know if Abdi a he or a she, but looks like it's short for Abdul, or a Biblical nme. Anyways, about the page - I think its should be created. Some references in other emails and being treated as someone who live in the Homestar Universe (can attend to a con hosted by characters along with Lem and Chimendez). Is anyone bold enough to make this page?

a ghostly intro song?

when i heard it (even the first line, before the ghost mention) i remember thinking "this tune sounds like something out of The Haunted Mansion" but i couldn't place exactly where (G-d it's been a long time...), and then when i heard "a pleasant ghost" it sort of confirmed it for me. Is there anyone who can confirm this? (I could be mistaken and it might be something from some ghost movie or something, just it reminded me of ghosts.) — Defender1031*Talk 23:27, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

hmm, doing some further reading, perhaps Grim Grinning Ghosts? I could see "green green grass" being similar enough, but i can't remember the tune, and the sound byte on 'kipedia is too short to be helpful in that regard. — Defender1031*Talk 23:31, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Homsar

What happened to Homsar? Awexome 05:39, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

What do you mean? He's the same random character he always was. — Defender1031*Talk 05:43, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
