Hey Strong Bad-

Whats up? What is your morning routine?

Mike S.
Gibsonia, Pa

{Strong Bad says "Pa" as "P-A"}

STRONG BAD: {typing} Mike, as you know, the morning routine is the most important routine of the day. The "R" in routine stands for r—

STRONG SAD: {offscreen} Hey Strong Bad! {Strong Bad turns to see Strong Sad standing there} I found this egg in the couch. Is this yours?

STRONG BAD: Yes, it's very fragile. Put it down.

{Strong Sad puts down the egg and walks off. Strong Bad resumes typing.}

STRONG BAD: {typing} So anyways, Mike, as I was saying, The "R" in routine stands for r

STRONG SAD: Strong Bad, I found what I believe to be a goose egg in the couch.

STRONG BAD: Thank you, Interrupter Jones. That is also my egg. Now put it down.

{Strong Sad puts it down, and Strong Bad resumes typing again}

STRONG BAD: {typing} Sorry about that, Mike. So, the "R"

STRONG SAD: Here's a duck egg, a nuthatch egg, ostrich egg, maybe a dinosaur egg, one of those brown eggs...

STRONG BAD: What are you trying to say, Strong Sad? So I got a lotta eggs. And I keep 'em in the couch.

STRONG SAD: There needs to be a better word for weird.

{The Cheat runs onscreen with underwear on his head and Strong Mad in pursuit}

STRONG MAD: MY PANTIES! MY PANTIES!

{they run off}

STRONG SAD: Okay. I'm moving out.

{Strong Sad walks off, Strong Bad resumes typing}

STRONG BAD: {typing} Fine with me, Strong Sad. I mean Mike. I mean whatever.

{The Paper comes down}

Easter Eggs

Fun Facts

Trivia

  • Potate is introduced in this email.
  • The Couch Mumbling gag begins in this email.
  • To date this is the only email that contains an Easter egg you get by clicking the "Compy 386" logo, one of only two Easter eggs that include actual eggs. The other one is in flashback.

Remarks

  • Strong Bad manages to type wearing not only boxing gloves, but also the potato chip bag. He may have typed one handed like he did in tape leg, though in that email he typed with just his right hand (for a short while). If he wasn't typing with the potate bag, he must have been using his left hand. It is possible Strong Bad is ambidextrous.
  • Strong Bad's Eggs Brand Type Cereal has 0 mg of anything and has ingredients listed as: eggs, eggs, eggs, and two more eggs (although there are seven eggs found by Strong Sad in total).
    • Strong Sad mentions seven eggs, but finds nine.
  • Apparently Strong Bad’s computer room was supposed to be in the basement next to the couch, this concept seems to have been abandoned (see Arcade Game).

Goofs

  • When Strong Bad sits down at the computer to answer his email, the reflection of his face can be seen outside of the monitor on the right side momentarily.
  • When Strong Bad types "So anyways, Mike, as I was saying, The 'R' in routine stands for r" and the camera angle changes to show Strong Sad and the eggs, "routine" is now misspelled "rountine."

Real-World References

  • "Super Bomberman" is a game for the SNES from the early '90s.
  • The tune playing on the TV set while Strong Bad is waking up is the theme song from "Voyage of the Mimi," an educational TV show from the 1980s featuring Ben Affleck.
  • Interruptor Jones is most likely a reference to Indiana Jones, a movie series starring Harrison Ford.

Fast Forward

  • Strong Bad's line at the beginning, "My mouth tastes like...emails," is later reused during the CGI sequence on the first disc of the Strong Bad Email DVD, except he instead says, "My mouth tastes like... DVDs."
  • The phrase "the R in routine" is used later in the email rampage
  • Strong Mad chases The Cheat again in a rampage Easter Egg.
  • Strong Bad sells the eggs for $54 in garage sale
