Electric Ozone

"Arrow'd 2: Electric-" also alludes to Strong Bad's Ozone (from Breakin' and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo) costume in 3 Times Halloween Funjob.

Arguments for:

Arguments against:

  • While it's true that B&B2 was referred to both times, there's no reason to assume that they had anything to do with each other.

Additional comments:

  • We've been over this before: do separate Real-World References to the same thing constitute Inside References? I'm not sure what I think myself; I'd be against describing it as an actual Reference, but inclined to note it in some way.
    • I agree. I would vote for a revision simply mentioning Strong Bad's costume was also from the movie while eliminating the "alludes to" inside reference.
  • I would say it might make a Fun Fact, not an Inside Reference though.

Blue is a reference to the sky

"Olympic Race" is a reference to Homestar's list on The Show.

From: Teen Girl Squad Issue 10
Posted on: 22:38, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Arguments for:

  • What? I don't believe there's any race in the Olympics that is officially known as the "Olympic Race Event." All races in the Olympics are Olympic races! So actually, I think it's too general not to be a reference, in that neither are true Real-World references.

Arguments against:

  • Just because olympic race is shown in both doesn't make it a reference. "The" is not a reference to "The Best Decemberween Ever"
  • Olympic race is a common race preformed in the olympics. Maybe if it were "Super Grand Olympiad Raceathon", but olympic race is too common to be a reference.

Additional comments:

  • We've had facts like this before, they weren't accepted either.
  • This is the same issue as above: individual references to the same Real-World phenomenon.

Different Voices

This is the first time a voice beside Strong Bad's has been used in the comic (the coach's).

From: Teen Girl Squad Issue 10
Posted on: 01:08, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Arguments for:

Arguments against:

  • Extremely nitpicky.
  • It's not the first time, as the Vultures (and possibly Mr. Pitters) in Episode 9 had voices that didn't sound like Strong Bad.

Additional comments:

  • Don't we close verifyably false fun facts immediately?
