Lack of phone

Is this the first time we see the entire table? Marzipan appears to have an answering machine, but no phone.

No, it's not. and it's always been suggested that the phone is elsewhere in the house. — Defender1031*Talk 16:51, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Wait, Stong?

are we all sure marzipan says "stong" instead of "strong"? because i've listened to the line over and over, and i think i can hear the "r" --Zatchman (Neumannz) 17:26, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

I listened to it 8 times by this point, 6 while i was making the edit, and i hear no r whatsoever. I am 100% positive about this. — Defender1031*Talk 17:29, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

I don't think it's an intentional use of "Stong Sad" though. Sounds more like "stchong" than anything to me. I'd say change it to strong and accept that Missy probably just wasn't focused on enunciating when trying to sound upset. If she had meant it to be stong to bring up a previous reference it would have been more clearly pronounced. DaOysterboy 21:04, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Intentional or not, it's what she said. Heck, half of the instances of stong are typoes and thus unintentional. This would just be the verbal equivalent of a typo. — Defender1031*Talk 22:36, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

I also hear the "r" in there. It's very subtle, and it's somewhat obscured by Missy's native accent and/or her trying to sound upset, but I definitely hear it in there. Maybe we should put this one to a vote? --Lukeonia1 02:00, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Shadows?

I don't know how to put this into words, but when Strong Sad's at the toilet there are shadows on the spots where his feet were when he was talking to Homestar. If someone could add that, that would be great. Coach ‎'s Cool! 21:37, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

I wouldn't call them shadows... I think they're more like impressions, coz he stands in that one spot at all other times during the toon. --DorianGray 21:39, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

The most telltale sign is the fact that the "shadows" are not visible in either scene where Strong Sad is there and you can see the floor. Not a Goof. --Jay (Gobble) 03:00, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Ah, that makes sense. Coach ‎'s Cool! 03:34, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Greetings Weary Traveller, I sense you are....

The beginning of Strong Sad's first greeting seems like a reference to Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective. "Bongiorno! I'm known around these parts as Stinky the Peeve. I sense that you are looking for information!" --Zonis 23:38, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
