== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Email, check it, come on, a-come on, y'all-a. Email check it, come on, a-come ''on'', y'all!

<pre>subject: Overdue rampage
Der Ong-stray Ad-bay,
I thinks it's been entirely too long since you went on a
rampage.
Sincerely Peter,</pre>

''{Strong Bad pronounces the misspelled "der". He also states "Sincerely Peter" as the closing greeting and "Comma" as the sender's name.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Well, Epressing-day Erd-nay, I thinks it's been entirely too long since you consulted your M.L.A. handbook! ''{clears screen, returns typing}'' Eh, so maybe it has been a while since my last rampage. But that doesn't mean I'm goin' soft or nothin'. I've just grown more selective of the types of rampages on which I go. Like the other freakin' day: me and Strong Mad went on a Reading Rampage.

''{Strong Mad and Strong Bad are seen on The Couch with many books stacked around them. Strong Mad is holding a waffle that reads "BUG" in syrup, and Strong Bad reads "Smart Investing for Jerks". The waffle drips syrup onto the floor.}

'''STRONG BAD:''' Man, this book really speaks to me. In like, ''{flips book upside-down}'' a couple of different languages, even.

'''STRONG MAD:''' THIS BOOK IS TOO LONG!

''{Back at the computer, Strong Bad keeps typing.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' See? It's not all rampage-stompin'-boy style rampages. The pie's the limit as far as rampages are concerned. Why, ye could go on a ''regal'' rampage.

''{Strong Bad appears in The King of Town's Castle, wearing a blanket around his neck, holding a staff and wearing The King of Town's crown. The crownless King of Town stands nearby.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Whacking king with scepter}'' I bequeath thee! I bequeath thee! I bequeath thee!

'''KING OF TOWN:''' ''{While getting whacked}'' Ow! Ow! One more!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{raising scepter}'' Ye hath quivered me tuppence!

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Oops, you lost me!

''{Strong Bad whacks King with scepter two more times.}''

'''KING OF TOWN:''' ''{While getting whacked}'' OW! OW!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Voice-over}'' Ooh, ooh! Or how about a legal rampage?

''{Cut to the outside of Homestar's House, with Homestar peeking out the door and Strong Bad walking in in a business suit with a bunch of papers}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' This is a sub-po-ena! ''{throws papers onto steps}'' I summons exhibit 4B to my chambers!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Sustained! ''{pulls out judge's gavel and hits himself 3 times, accompanied by sound effects}''

''{Cut back to the Lappy}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' And don't forget the lyrical rampages me and Coach Z are ''always'' going on. Or more like, going OOORRRRFF! ''{The last word is said in a fake Coach Z accent.}''

''{Cut to the Stage, where Strong Bad and Coach Z are standing with microphones. Music is playing in the background}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm on a rampage!

'''COACH Z:''' I've got problems with my feet and my back!

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm on a rampage!

'''COACH Z:''' I'm about to have a dope rhyme attack!

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm on a rampage!

'''COACH Z:''' Coach Z, rock all type of sports!

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm on a rampage!

'''COACH Z:''' And if you don't believe me, you can get with the Chort!

''{Cut to the Cheat, who is scratching on a children's record player. Then Strong Sad enters. The music screeches to a halt.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' May I please ask how repeating the same four words constitutes a lyrical rampage?

'''STRONG BAD:''' May ''I'' please ask how a round mound of gray fatness constitutes a younger brother? ''{Points at the audience.}'' I'm on a rampage!

'''STRONG SAD:''' But what about rules of verse? Iambic pentameter is where it's at! Hit it, The Cheat!

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{angrily}'' Meh?

'''STRONG SAD:''' I dunno, drop some beats or something.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, they're gonna have to be fat beats in your case. Go ahead, The Cheat. Let's witness the whiteness.

'''THE CHEAT:''' Meh.

''{The Cheat starts the record player - playing a very childish "beat".}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' The ''quill!'' The ''page!'' Ly-''ric,'' ram-''page!'' Ummmm... Word ''up?''

''{Strong Bad and Coach Z snicker}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, that was great, Strong Sad. I didn't know you was hard! ''{pronounced "hawd"}'' Remind me again: what part of the streets are you from, exactly? ''{snickers again}''

'''COACH Z:''' You're a real MC, Strong Sad! A ''master of ceremonies!''

''{Coach Z and Strong Bad laugh for a moment, until Strong Bad realizes what was just said.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Er, wait...

'''STRONG SAD:''' Forget you guys! It went over great at my Poetry Slam!

''{Cut to the side of Bubs' Concession Stand, which still has the comedy club decorations, but has a banner marked "Poetry Slam" in front of them. Strong Sad stands by the microphone, while silhouettes of Marzipan and Homsar are in the foreground.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' The ''quill!'' The ''page!'' Ly-''ric,'' ram-''page!'' Word ''up?''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Good style there, Strong Sad! Geoff Chaucer would be would be proud!

'''HOMSAR:''' AaAaAaAaAaAaA! Caramel corn for president, please!

''{Cut back to the Stage}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, run along, DJ Dumpy Dump! We gotta get back to rampagin'!

'''COACH Z:''' 'Ey, maybe we should start calling you "SS"! For ''Strong Sad!'' ''{laughs}''

''{Strong Bad and The Cheat stare at Coach Z increduously}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{to Coach Z}'' What is wrong with you?

''{the beat starts again}''

'''COACH Z:''' I'm bad at abbreviations!

'''STRONG BAD:''' You're on a rampage?

'''COACH Z:''' The number one jam on all the stations!

''{Cut back to the Lappy}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Ya see Comma, ''{pronounces both the name "Comma" and the actual comma}'' you can still hurt people and their feelings with all manner of different rampages. Until next time, bailiff, I'll be in my chambers. I mean, The Cheat, I'll be in my office... which is this room. ''{quickly}'' So, I'll be right here.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down}''

== Easter Eggs ==

*At the end of the e-mail, click on "rampages" for a parody of the classic video game [[Wikipedia:Rampage (arcade game)|Rampage]], published by Bally Midway in 1986.
*Also at the end, click on "chambers" to see the poster for [[Litigation Jackson]] 2: Legal Rampage.
*Again at the end, click on "different" to see a Strong Sad CD.Unlike other CD-related easter eggs, this one does not let you hear a song when clicked.

== Fun Facts ==
=== Explanations ===
*When Peter says "Ong-stray Ad-bay" and Strong Bad says "epressing-day erd-nay," this is a fake language called [[Wikipedia:Pig Latin|Pig Latin]]. Translated, Peter said "Strong Bad," and Strong Bad said "depressing nerd."
*The M.L.A. Handbook for Writers of Research Papers is a guide for punctuation, quotation, and documentation of sources published by the ''[http://www.mla.org/ Modern Language Association]''. It is the most popular standard for academic writing.
*Shortly after referring to the M.L.A. Handbook, Strong Bad writes, "I've just grown more selective of the types of rampages on which I go." The slightly odd phrasing at the end of the sentence ("on which I go" rather than the more natural "which I go on") pokes fun at a rule of formal writing (as the M.L.A. explains) that no sentence should end with a preposition.
**In the very next sentence, however, Strong Bad uses the grossly ungrammatical construction "me and Strong Mad..." (instead of "Strong Mad and I..."), and later "me and Coach Z...."
*Definitions of Strong Bad's "regal" language:
**''[http://m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=bequeath&x=12&y=15 bequeath]'': verb, To leave or give (personal property) by will. To pass (something) on to another; hand down.
**''[http://m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=quiver quiver]'': 1. verb, To shake with a slight, rapid, tremulous movement. 2. noun, a case for carrying arrows. 3. noun, the arrows in a quiver.
**''[http://m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?va=tuppence tuppence]'': noun, British variant of twopence, or two pennies.
*"Witness the whiteness" could be a reference to the racial stereotype that white people can't rap, dance, fight, jump, or anything street.
*Strong Sad mentions [[Wikipedia:Iambic pentameter|iambic pentameter]], which is a syllable pattern used in poetry. An iamb is a pair of syllables, the first unstressed and the second stressed. Iambic pentameter is five iambs per line. Strong Sad says "The ''quill!'' The ''page!'' Ly-''ric,'' ram-''page!'' Word ''up?''" in exaggerated iambic pentameter. Note that "lyric" is normally pronounced with the first syllable accented, so Strong Sad's line is not truly iambic pentameter. Iambic pentameter was popular with such poets as [[Wikipedia:William Shakespeare|William Shakespeare]] and [[Wikipedia:Geoffrey Chaucer|Geoffrey Chaucer]], and was for a long time the standard English meter.

=== Trivia ===
*The books with titles on the bind are:
**Sweatshirtguy
**The R in Routine
**Soup, Right?
**Brown Story
**Biscuit
**Smart Investing for Jerks

=== Remarks ===
*This is the first time we've ever heard Coach Z actually laugh.
*After he stops speaking, Homsar's hat still hovers in mid-air instead of returning to his head.
*It's interesting that Strong Bad advises Peter to consult his "M.L.A. handbook"; if he'd checked his own, he would have seen that the [[Wikipedia:Modern Language Association|MLA]] doesn't use periods when it refers to itself.

=== Inside References ===
* One of the books in Strong Bad and Strong Mad's Reading Rampage is titled "The R in Routine", a reference to one of Strong Bad's lines in [[morning routine]].
*The Poetry Club is really [[Bubs' Ha-Ha-Halloween Comedy Club]], with the banner draping over it.
* The scene in the ''Rampage'' video game easter egg of Strong Mad chasing the Cheat is also from [[morning routine]].
* "Poetry Slam" is the title of Strong Sad's character page.
* The glasses Strong Mad is wearing are from his costume in the [[Email Processing Room]].
* "Number one jam" is possibly a reference to [[time capsule]].
* In the Rampage easter egg, The Cheat looks like Predator The Cheat from the DVD Sketchbook feature.

=== Real-World References ===
* On Strong Sad's CD (when "different" is clicked), there is a "Parental Advisory" warning for "Very Boring". This advisory is a parody of the advisories found on music albums containing explicit lyrics or otherwise offensive content. Parental Advisory labels became required by most record companies in America following the 1985 "Porn Rock" congressional hearings spearheaded by the [[Wikipedia:Parents Music Resource Center|Parents Music Resource Center]] (PMRC), led by Tipper Gore.
* The Cheat uses an old '80s Fisher-Price record player to "drop some beats." The drum beats he plays to back Strong Sad are from a Yamaha PSS-180 home keyboard's "custom drummer" section.
*"Smart Investing for Jerks" is a reference to the numerous [[Wikipedia:...For Dummies|...For Dummies]] books, which insult the reader in their title.
*It's rumored that the song playing during "lyric rampage" is the beat to Jay-Z's Song Dope Man from Volume Three; Life and Times of S. Carter.
** Or, that song could be the theme of the old TV show, SWAT.
* "Geoff Chaucer" refers to [[Wikipedia:Geoffrey Chaucer|Geoffrey Chaucer]], a 14th century English poet famous for [[Wikipedia:The Canterbury Tales|The Canterbury Tales]].
* "Witness the whiteness" could be a reference to English hip-hop artists Roots Manuva's song "Witness the Fitness".

'''Strong Bad Email #69'''

HockeymanJ05 writes in to ask which one of the emails is Strong Bad's favorite, and Strong Bad takes a trip down memory lane.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[Homestar Runner]], [[Grape Nuts Robot]], [[Bubs]], [[Coach Z]], [[The Cheat]], [[Pom Pom]], [[Gavin]] (Easter Egg)

'''Date:''' April 14, 2003

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:'''
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH EMAIL!!! ''{This echoes and a wicked guitar solo plays while Strong Bad rocks out.}'' Whoa, that ruled. What function key do I gotta press to get that to happen again?

''{reading}''

<pre>Hey Strong Bad,

You have done so many of these
e-mails which one would you say is
the best, or your personal favorite.

Thanks,
HockeymanJ05</pre>

''{Strong Bad pronounces the name "Hockeyjockeyman.. oh whatever".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Well, Hockeyfriend, my emails are like my childrens. I love them all! But if I had to play favorites... Let's see...

''{Cut to Homestar Runner in a field. A stack of [[Swiss Cake Rolls]] boxes float toward him.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' There's that one where they asked what I'd do if I was invisable ''{pronounces it like that}'', and I got to punch Homestar in the gut.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, hey guys. Oof!

''{Homestar Runner is punched in the gut by an unseen force.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Owwwwww, those things are bad for you.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Ooh, and that one where my computer exploded.

''{Cut to Strong Bad sitting at [[Tandy 400]]. It explodes and he is sent flying across the room and through the wall.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And then there's that on where Bubs built the Strong Bad Robot out of a box of Grape Nuts and a speak-and-spell.

''{Cut to Bubs and Strong Bad standing in a field with the [[Grape Nuts Robot]].}''

'''GRAPE NUTS ROBOT:''' Now spell come back Ali, Come back Ali's sister.

'''STRONG BAD:''' No way! That sounds just like me! ''{Strong Bad does a number of double-takes.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And that time where that girl wrote in and I drank a glass of soy sauce and thought I could fly Bubs' Concession Stand.

''{Cut to Strong Bad sitting on top of [[Bubs' Concession Stand]]. He's wearing aviation goggles and is holding a makeshift steering wheel. Empty soy sauce bottles are strewn about.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoohooo! Clear the launchway, man. We're takin' this baby TO THE MOOOOOOON!

''{Strong Bad falls over backward behind the sign and the "D" falls off, onto Bubs' counter. Bubs immediately puts up a sign that says "'D' for SALE".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh, and who could forget TAPE LEG TWO!

''{Cut to Strong Bad stitting at Tandy 400. There's an e-mail on the screen which says:''

<pre>Dear strong bad again,
my brothers continue to tell me that your
legs are made of tape, are you sure it's not true?
-Nicolas</pre>

''a> They still say my legs are made of tape?! WHAT?? I say again, do I look like some kinda tape-leg? I swear on Strong Sad's grave, man, I was never, nor will I ever be, a tape-leg.''

''{He sticks his foot in the air and it's covered with tape.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh and how 'bout that one where I left such a good prank call on Marzipan's answering machine that it exploded?

''{Cut to [[Marzipan's Answering Machine]].}''

'''STRONG BAD:''': ''{from answering machine}'' PRANK CALL!!

''{Marzipan's Answering Machine squeals and explodes, leaving behind only half of a tape labeled "Lilith Fair '99".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''': ''{voiceover}'' And then there's that really old one that asked what my favorite phrase was..

''{Cut to [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (toon)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]] style Strong Bad at Tandy 400. An e-mail on the screen reads "Favorite phrase? -trixie".}''

'''POWERED BY TEH CHEAT STRONG BAD:''' ''{badly-imitated voice}'' I like-a-to-say, holy crap!

''{Really badly-drawn Homestar Runner (without cap) appears.}''

'''POWERED BY TEH CHEAT HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{badly-imitated voice}'' Oh no, it's a Strong Bad!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And the one where Pom Pom and Coach Z got in that knife fight on the stone bridge..

''{Cut to stone bridge over a river. Coach Z and Pom Pom are facing eachother with knife. Coach Z keeps dodging back and forth and Pom Pom deftly twirls his knife.}''

'''COACH Z:''' ''{to Pom Pom}'' I'm a blade-man, man!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And then the one where the Cheat drank a glass of soy sauce and tried to eat Bubs' Concession Stand..

''{Cut to Bubs' Concession stand. Empty soy sauce bottles are strewn about and the cheat is gnawing away at the back corner.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''

''{Pan to Strong Bad, atop Bubs' Concession Stand again with his aviation goggles and steering wheel.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hold on tight, The Cheat, we're blastin' offa TO THE MOOOOOOOON!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad in front of the computer}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' So that's it, Soccerdude. That's pretty much the cream of the crop. There might be a few other good ones but if you ask me it doesn't get any better than that Grape Nuts robot. ''{not typing}'' Okay, so.. OHHHHHH THAT'S THE END!!

''{Strong Bad's last line echoes, and he begins imitating a guitar, but the rockin' music doesn't come back.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh man, which button was it??

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*At the end you can click on the word "other" to see two bonus e-mails:
**Strong bad says "How about that time when Gavin wouldn't leave me alone?". A cockroach crawls across Tandy 400's screen which Strong Bad swats at, saying "Get outta here, man, I'm checkin' my email!". The e-mail on the screen says: "Dear Strong Bad, Are you are real wrestle-man? I'm hope that u r. -Pred"
**Strong Bad says, "There was that time where the G and U keys were the only ones that weren't broken..". The e-mail on the screen reads: "Sup Strong Bad, Do that thing you do that one time. I wasn't watching and I missed it. Forever young, Zebbadee." Strong Bad replies: "guUU gu guu uuUUUuu gugug ug ug UG gu gu Gu gu".

*You can also click on the words "Grape Nuts robot". Each time you click, you get a different [[Grape Nuts Robot]] quote:
**"Now spell: Carp for brains."
**"Things were just about to start getting crazy-go-nuts."
**"Now spell: [[Double Deuce | Douuuuuuuuble Deuce]]."
*Also at the end you can hit the 'q' key to hear Strong Bad's email intro tune again.

== Fun Facts ==
===Explanations===
*Only the first 2 emails ([[invisibility]] and [[gimmicks]]) are real. "Tape-leg 2" isn't real, although it refers to [[tape-leg]].
===Trivia===
* The side of the box of Grape Nuts says: "This is a very healthy choice for your breakfast needs. Try it once or more, for best results. Ingredients: cereal, milk, more cereal, 2% milk, more ceral [sic], more milk, grape nuts, nuggets, nuggets, nuggets, assorted premium ingrediants [sic]." iron 0g, calcium 0g, fiber 0g, oats 0g, wheats 0g, Vit. C 0g, zinc 0g
*Coach Z’s original line during the knife fight with Pom Pom was ‘I’m a white guy with a knife!’ This was changed within a week after the email came out.
*The contrast knobs work during "Tape-leg 2."

===Remarks===
* The alcohol content in soy sauce is very low. By the time someone would have drunk enough to become thoroughly inebriated, as Strong Bad was, their blood pressure would be so high they would have had a stroke.
**This may mean that Strong Bad and The Cheat have very low alcohol tolerance.
**Or just very low blood pressure.
*It is debatable whether all of the emails featured are really part of the H*R continuity or not, especially with the Grape Nuts Robot's comeback in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 8]].
*The two real e-mails both pertain to the fall of the Tandy 400 and the introduction of the [[Compy 386]]. It's possible that they are two of Strong Bad's favourites due to how much Strong Bad disliked the Tandy 400 in comparison to the Compy 386, as is evidenced by his indifference while knocking the Tandy off the desk in [[invisibility]] and his interminable crying at the end of [[virus]].

===Goofs===
* Strong Bad's Shift/Caps Lock, space bar, and comma keys were obviously also working in the email in the egg, not just G and U.
* When Strong Bad shoos Gavin away from the screen, his arm doesn't show up in the reflection on the screen.

===Inside References===
*When the Grape Nuts Robot says "Now Spell: Come back Ali, come back Ali's sister," it is a reference to the email [[sisters]].
*Strong Bad pronounces the word "invisible" like "invisable", a reference to [[invisibility]] where the word was spelled wrong in the email.
*When the Grape Nuts Robot says "Now Spell: Douuuble Deuce," it is referring back to the email [[the bird]], or [[Stinkoman]]'s attack of the same name in both [[20X6 vs. 1936]] and [[Main Page 17]].
* "Things were just about to start getting crazy-go-nuts." is a reference to "[[The Luau]]", which Strong Bad says when the everyone but Strong Bad goes to Marzipan's luau. There is also the infamous [[Crazy Go Nuts University]] (CGNU).

===Real-World References===
*The guitar riff in the intro is ostensibly from "The Game" by Motorhead.
* Marzipan's answering machine tape says "lilith fair '99". Lilith Fair is a music festival celebrating feminist musicians, and women in general.
*The soy sauce bottles have writing on them in yellow letters, with "KIKKO" being visible. This is most definitely a bottle of Kikkoman Soy Sauce.
*One of the easter egg emails was from "Zebbadee", a character from a French/English children's TV program called "The Magic Roundabout"
*"Forever Young" in Zebadee's easter egg email is probably a reference to Bob Dylan's song of the same name. It could also be a reference to the 1980s pop group Alphaville, who had a number one hit with a song and album of the same name in 1984 (and little else thereafter).

== DVD Version ==
*The method for accessing the two bonus emails has been split. Click on the Strong Bad icon on the top left for the Gavin email, and bottom-left for the broken keyboard email.
*All three Grape Nuts robot quotes have been incorporated into the same video.
*The guitar riff Easter Egg is still there, but obviously not accessable by hitting "Q" (by clicking a Strong Bad Icon on the right side of the screen)
*The DVD version features hidden creator's commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

=== Commentary Transcript ===
''{Commentary by [[Mike Chapman]], [[Matt Chapman]]}''

'''MIKE:''' Oh, look at this. Listen to these chops!

'''MATT:''' Yeah, Mike did this. Lixx! Those are-

'''MIKE:''' Hot lixx!

'''MATT:''' L-I-X-X

'''MIKE:''' I used to have this poster in my room of this red guitar and it said "HOT LIXX" and they were, like, smoking guitar strings?

'''MATT:''' Yeah, I think you're right.

'''MIKE:''' I think I got it for my 14th birthday, maybe?

'''MATT:''' Did mom buy you a "HOT LIXX" poster? Or did you just go-

'''MIKE:''' No no no, I think I got it for my birthday, for my 14th birthda- whatever birthday I had in 8th grade, so probably my 14th birthday.

'''MATT:''' Like, from mom?

'''MIKE:''' I think so.

'''MATT:''' That's amazing.

'''MIKE:''' That's a loving mother right there.

'''MATT:''' I know! Hot lixx

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, that's great. I also got some, um, some leather gloves with the fingers cut off. Like, weight-lifting gloves.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, that's right.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Oh that right there, that's one of my favorite parts is when Homestar Runner says "Hey Guys!" ''{starts cracking up}'' to floating boxes of Swiss Cake Rolls.

''{pause}''

'''MIKE:''' I really should make that robot.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, we should. I bet Slokum could do that, Paul Slokum, the guy that's making the Atari 2600 Homestar Runner game. I bet he could

'''MIKE:''' figure

'''MATT:''' figure that out.

''{Pause}''

'''MIKE:''' So, Kikkoman, that looks like.

'''MATT:''' That really looks like that Kikkoman model.

'''MIKE:''' Regular Sodium. Kikkoman Sodium.

'''MATT:''' Hey, Kikkoman, everybody says you're The Guy! Get it?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, Stink-- yeah.

'''MATT:''' Sounds like... the tape right here, that looked really good, the tape floating down... watch this. Ah. Lillith Fair '99. Uh, this is, of course, a homage to when we... sucked.

''{Mike Laughs}''

'''MATT:''' In animation, and funny. The

'''MIKE:''' Matt, do we not do that anymore?

'''MATT:''' No.

'''MIKE:''' We don't?

'''MATT:''' Uh, the Stone Bridge, there is a Stone Bridge near here.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. We need to go film the Puppet Stuff there.

'''MATT:''' Some live action stuff. I like that, The Cheat gnawing on something. We should use that again.

''{Mike Laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' People would all the time e-mail us, and probably still do, asking about how come they can't find those e-mails.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. Well, it's because, we start, you know, making stuff

''{Mike and Matt talk at the same time, resulting in an unintelligent sound}''

'''MIKE:''' People that aren't the smartest, you know... don't get the joke.

'''MATT:''' Joke it out.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Checkin' emails with a VISCOSITY since 2001, it's a Strong Bad Email.

''{reading}''

<pre>dear STRONG bad,
you are extremely awesome but how are
you going to be soooo awesome if you'rre
dead? why not make a time capsule of
stuff filled with stuff about you to
be opened in at least X0 years.
please answer this,
sam concord california</pre>

''{Strong Bad puts an extreme emphasis on the STRONG in Strong Bad, says "This, I know" after "you are extremely awesome," reads "soooo" as "sue," pronounces "you'rre" as spelled, pronounces "capsule" as "capsoole," and pronounces "X0" as "exty"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Rest assured, Shim-Sham Sam, my time capsule would reign supreme. Like your hot single Mom is gonna wanna date my time capsule. So, the key to a good time capsule is it being an actual capsule. None of these shoe boxes or tennis ball cans. No. Those things are called time boxes and time tennis ball cans. ''{clears screen, continues typing}'' Those are different and lame and differently lame. And they always get dug up in about 4 days. And they're filled with uncool stuff like those leaf rubbin's ''{an image of leaf rubbings pops up}''and current newspaper clippin's ''{a newspaper clipping pops up}'' and... toenail snippin's? ''{toenail snippings pop up onscreen}'' Anybody? ''{clears screen, continues typing}'' Anyways, I'm talking about a f'real capsule. Y'know, like a big old headache medicine. So, what kinda cool stuff should I put in there? I guess I'd throw in a cassette tape with one of my #1 jams on it. And then in the future it'd be a huge hit and they'd send all the royalties and groupies back in time to me right... ''{mumbles to self for a second}'' NOW!

''{The doorbell rings. Cut to zoomed out view of Strong Bad at his computer desk}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Holy gosh! It worked! I'm the meanest genius!

''{Homestar enters holding a shoebox}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey Strong Bad, hey, can I put this gross old wig in your time machine?

''{Homestar produces a gross old wig from the shoebox}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uhhm, it's a CAPSULE, no, and I hate you, get out.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cool cool.

''{Homestar puts the gross old wig on his face}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Why would you want to put that nasty old thing in a time capsule anyway?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' 'Cause it's gross and nasty and old and I don't want it.

''{Homestar takes the wig off and puts it on Strong Bad's floppy disk container}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' It's not a TRASH capsule. Look, this is for COOL stuff so people of the future know how cool I am.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well then I'll just make my OWN time box with a gross old wig in it. So all the future peoples will know I had a gross old wig!

''{Homestar puts the gross old wig back in the shoebox}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Good. Now leave.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yep!

''{Homestar leaves. Cut back to Compy 386}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' And I might as well spit in it, just in case they ever figure out how to make people from spit. Ooh! Then I'd put some dry ice in there so when they open it up it looks all smoky and steamy and it says a-like "froosh" when they first open it. There'll be no doubt about my coolty.

''{Cut to the field, circa 20X6. Stinkoman is kneeling in front of a hole with dirt around his mouth}''

'''STINKOMAN:''' Oh man, those first four hundred bites of dirt were not so good. Maybe the next one will be better.

''{Stinkoman sticks his hand in the hole where it makes an audible clanging sound against an unseen object}''

'''STINKOMAN:''' WHAAAT is this? Some sort of a challenge buried in the GROUUUND?

''{Stinkoman snatches a red and white capsule out of the hole. It opens with Strong Bad saying "froosh," and a cassette tape is revealed}''

'''STINKOMAN:''' Lookie here! A power crunch!

''{Stinkoman grabs the cassette and jams it into his mouth, crunching it up}''

'''STINKOMAN:''' It tastes like a #1 jam!

''{Stinkoman suddenly stands up, and bulks up , making the clich� powering up sound. 20X6 Homestar walks in with the gross old wig on his head}''

'''20X6 HOMESTAR:''' ''{not noticing Stinkoman's Ultra Saiyan form}'' Hey Stinkoman! Look what I found buried in a time box!

''{Cut back to the present and the Compy 386}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Yeah, cassette tape is definitely the way to go. What could ever replace the durability of magnetic tape? Duct tape maybe. Man, I wonder when those groupies and royalties are getting here. What about right (hamina hooo) NOW! ''{stops typing}'' CRAP! OK, what about right... here it comes, just a little bit longer NOW! Ugh. This could take a while.

''{The Paper comes down.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, the time is passing by, oh it's such a lovely day NOW! 5-4-3-2-1-NOW! 5-4-3-2-1-NOW! 3-2-1-NOW! 2-1-NOW! NOW! 1-NOW! NOW!

:'''Transcript:'''
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Girl, I know we haven't been through a lot together. 
:In fact one might say we just met standing here in line at the batting cages, 
:but there's one thing I'm sure of already. 
:Let me get them Grumblecakes and please don't grumble babe, 
:I just need them Grumblecakes. 
:Ohh I'm Grumblecaking with you. 
:Let me get them Grumblecakes, and please don't grumble babe, I just needed them Grumblecakes. 
:Ohh I'm Grumblecaking with you. 
:I'm really going to grumble bake another batch of them Grumblecakes. 
:So let's raise the Grumblestakes. 
:Clean the yard with the Grumblerake. 
:Girl give me a Grumble break. 
:I wanna see you Grumble shake. 
:Don't make a grumble mistake. 
:Let me see you grumble down!

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
*The newspaper clipping reads:
<pre>Oct 4. - Little Boy Saves Turtle!
"I found it in my shoe!!!"
News - A local boy named "Geoff," found a turtle in his shoe
and returned it to the terrarium on his desk. "His name is Slowbie,
but now I think I'll call him Mr. Shoe." The boy's mother is very
proud of her son. Calls to the turtle's mother were not immediately
returned, but most agree she would be proud of Slowbie/Mr. Shoe.</pre>
*The date on newspaper clipping, October 4, is the day this e-mail was released.
===Remarks===
*After making fun of Sam's typos, Strong Bad goes and miscapitalizes "Mom," which takes the lowercase after the possessive "your."
*When Strong Bad thought the royalties came he said "holy gosh!" instead of saying his favorite phrase, "holy crap"!
*When Stinkoman opens the time capsule, the wheels of the tape are still (or already) turning.
*At one point, Homestar manages to suspend the gross old wig, the shoebox lid, and the shoebox itself, in midair at the same time. This suggests that Homestar may have more than two invisible "arms" used to hold objects up.
*If dry ice ''had'' been put into the capsule, then it would have popped open just a few moments after Strong Bad closed it. Dry ice is a genericized trademark for solid carbon dioxide. This solid form is constantly sublimating to carbon dioxide gas, so it cannot be stored in a sealed container as the pressure build up will eventually cause the container to explode. Additionally, carbon dioxide gas is heavier than air and would sink to the ground, instead of flowing out and up from the capsule as seen in the email.

===Inside References===
*Homestar Runner's Time Box is a [[Freshley's]] shoe box, the same one he wore on one of his feet in "[[anything]]".
*The year "exty/X0" is a reference the [[20X6]] era. Suitably, [[Stinkoman]] shows up in a ''flashforward'' (like a flashback).
*Stinkoman is willing to eat dirt as he was in [[Under Construction]].
*"Slowbie" MIGHT be a reference to "[[2 years]]", in which Strong Bad called [[The Cheat]] the same thing.
*"Grumblecakes" is a clear reference to "[[stupid stuff]]".
*The time capsule looks an awful lot like the [[The Isle of Pom]].
*Strong Bad sounds like [[Senor Cardgage]] when he mumbles.
*The hole in the ground is the exact same shape as the one that will be in [[Strongbadia]] 2 years from when the email [[2 years]] was written.
*[[The Strong Bad]] effectively left a time capsule for Strong Bad by enclosing half his mustache in a letter in an easter egg in the email [[flashback]]. Strong Bad hasn't been seen with this envelope, however, unlike Stinkoman with Strong Bad's time capsule.
*The gross old wig is probably the wig Homestar wore as part of his Kurt Cobain costume in [[Homestarloween Party]].

===Real-World References===
*"Grumblecakes" sounds a lot like Burn by Usher.
*The "hamina-hoo" sound he makes at the end is very similar to the noise made by the Nintendo character Yoshi.

Cheatcakes

207.30.19.219 — Fri, 11 Mar 2005 19:53:42 GMT

207.30.19.219:

[[Image:TheCheatCakes.png|thumb|right|220px|Steam, sugar, and spots]]
'''Cheatcakes''' are a specialty food [[The Cheat]] originally invented for [[Strong Bad]] as a substitute for [[Grumblecakes]], which the masked wrestler had previously been swindled out of by a collaborative effort of Kevin Grumbles and [[Homestar Runner]]. Strong Bad did not appreciate the substitute, despite the efforts of The Cheat to add even more steam and sugar than the Grumblecakes.

The Cheat has since gone into business, privately making and distributing these snacks. He has retaliated against Kevin Grumbles and Strong Bad by claiming in his theme song that only liars and thieves eat Grumblecakes, furthering this message by stating openly that such people are inevitably jailed. The theme song was taped over when Strong Bad made his #1 Jam in an easter egg for the [[time capsule]] email. (#115)

Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 9.2

207.30.19.219: /* Message 3: */

Marzipan gets a new answering machine in this version. The [[PhoneTime XL8]]!

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Marzipan]], [[The King of Town]], [[Strong Bad]], [[Coach Z]], [[Homestar Runner]], [[Pom Pom]]

'''Date:''' December 1, 2003

== Transcript ==
=== Marzipan's Greeting: ===
'''MARZIPAN''': Hi, this is M-A-R-Z-I-P-A-N. Please leave me a message after the B-E-E-P. ''{beep}''

=== Message 6: ===
'''THE KING OF TOWN''': ''{panicked}'' Hello Marzipan, it's the King of Town. Look, I need to know if it's still Thanksgiving. Um, I really, ''really'' need it to still be Thanksgiving. Like, I fear for my personal safety if it's not Thanksgiving still. And if not... then, is it next Thanksgiving yet? Okay, if you could get back to me as soon as possible that'd be great.

=== Message 5: ===
'''STRONG BAD''': Good mornin', Marzipan. This is your cable man... uh, Cableman Jorge [''pronounces Jorge 'hhh-Horhay' ''] Just calling you regarding your service. We need you to do a little routine maintainace on it, so go ahead and buy, like, a hundred-foot spool of coaxial cable and run it off your cable box and out the window and give it a toss in the general direction of Strong Bad's house. And while you're at it, you may want to go ahead and upgrade to the premium package which includes all the pay channels... and the Olympic triplecast. So... get that done for us, we'll be- we'll be much obliged. Tenderly, I remain... Cableman Jorge.

=== Message 4: ===
'''COACH Z''': Hey there, Marzipan. It's the lyrical wondermind, Coach Z. Calling to ask you if, uh, you seen one of my discotapes... I think I left over there. Uh, it's one of my most favorite discotapes and I'd really like it back so, I'm gonna come... I'm just gonna head on over there, uh, and if you're not there I'll just let myself in the crack in the window like I usually do... I mean... not... I never do, because I've never snuck into your house before. I mean, whose sneakin' over here? Nobody. I'm creepin'. ''{pause}'' Have you tried these new crazy curly fries? I mean, they're crazy! It's like a french fry, but it's all curled up into a curlicue!

=== Message 3: ===
'''STRONG BAD''': ''{eating something, most likely "potate" chips}'' Oh... hey Marzipan. This is that guy Strong Bad. Um... so I was just reading on my Internet... about how tofu is made from little baby seals. Yeah, so like, all this time, you've been eatin', um, little baby seals. So what? I guess you're gonna keel over, at like, any second now at the thought of all these little baby seals running around in your stomach. I mean, that's just gross. Just plain old gross. So in conclusion... you should listen to your cable man. ''{crunching noises}''

=== Message 2: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': So I just got this message you left for me on Pom Pom's cell phone telling me to go away and pick up sticks. Well I say that is GARBAGE, sister! Having to put up with you is like having to put up with GARBAGE! I don't know where you get off, but it's definitely not at the Homestar Station anymore. Looks like you're riding the 7:30 alone train to ALONEVILLE. Making stops at Ex-Girlfriend Junction and West BREAKIN' UP WITH YOU! Oh, and you can ''keep'' the collector's plates!

=== Message 1: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Okay, so after a ''second'' listening under the tutelage of Pom Pom's keen ears, it appears that you were asking me to go to Which Way and pick up some Hefty bags, not to go away and pick up sticks. And now that I think about it, I don't really know what that would have meant even if you ''had'' said that. So, best thing to do is... to go back and not listen to that message, and then we've got nothing to worry about. Oh, wait... in fact... ''{makes backwards sounding noises}'' Okay, there. I think I reversed it.

'''POM POM''': ''{bubble noises}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': What? What do you mean that doesn't work? Oh crap. ''{runs to Marzipan's house with a tape full of fake messages}'' All's I gotta do is switch out the tapes and none will be the wiser.

=== Fake Greeting: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{doing a poor imitation of Marzipan}'' Oh, hey, this is Marzipan... and, uhm... leave a message after my beeps. Beep.

=== Fake Message 4: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{doing a poor imitation of Strong Bad}'' Oh, hey, Marzipan. This is the Strong Bad. Uh... go around... go around with doo doo on your head.. 'cause it could be funny. Okay, bye. Beep!

=== Fake Message 3: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{doing a poor imitation of Coach Z with no accent}'' Hey there, Marzipan. This is Coach Z. I was just wonderin' why you weren't at field hockey practice today. Um... great job. Oh, I mean... great job. Oh, I mean... great job. Boop!

=== Fake Message 2: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{doing a poor imitation of...himself}'' Hey there, Marzipan, this is your boyfriend, Homestar Runner. You're the best girlfriend I ever had. Let's have a marriage. Let's have a marriage license. Okay, bye. Boop!

=== Fake Message 1: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{in a depressed tone}'' Oh, hey Marzipan this is Strong Sad. Um... some animal died. Boop!

== Fun Facts ==
*Homestar also used the phrase "some animal died" for his Strong Sad impression in the [[impression]] email.
*Homestar's fake Coach Z is a reference to the toon "[[A Jorb Well Done]]."

== Transcript ==
=== Marzipan's Greeting: ===
'''MARZIPAN''': Hi, this is M-A-R-Z-I-P-A-N. Please leave me a message after the B-E-E-P. ''{beep}''

=== Message 6: ===
'''THE KING OF TOWN''': ''{panicked}'' Hello Marzipan, it's the King of Town. Look, I need to know if it's still Thanksgiving. Um, I really, ''really'' need it to still be Thanksgiving. Like, I fear for my personal safety if it's not Thanksgiving still. And if not... then, is it next Thanksgiving yet? Okay, if you could get back to me as soon as possible that'd be great.

=== Message 5: ===
'''STRONG BAD''': Good mornin', Marzipan. This is your cable man... uh, Cableman Jorge [''pronounces Jorge 'hhh-Horhay' ''] Just calling you regarding your service. We need you to do a little routine maintainace on it, so go ahead and buy, like, a hundred-foot spool of coaxial cable and run it off your cable box and out the window and give it a toss in the general direction of Strong Bad's house. And while you're at it, you may want to go ahead and upgrade to the premium package which includes all the pay channels... and the Olympic triplecast. So... get that done for us, we'll be- we'll be much obliged. Tenderly, I remain... Cableman Jorge.

=== Message 4: ===
'''COACH Z''': Hey there, Marzipan. It's the lyrical wondermind, Coach Z. Calling to ask you if, uh, you seen one of my discotapes... I think I left over there. Uh, it's one of my most favorite discotapes and I'd really like it back so, I'm gonna come... I'm just gonna head on over there, uh, and if you're not there I'll just let myself in the crack in the window like I usually do... I mean... not... I never do, because I've never snuck into your house before. I mean, whose sneakin' over here? Nobody. I'm creepin'. ''{pause}'' Have you tried these new crazy curly fries? I mean, they're crazy! It's like a french fry, but it's all curled up into a curlicue!

=== Message 3: ===
'''STRONG BAD''': ''{eating something, most likely "[[potate]]" chips}'' Oh... hey Marzipan. This is that guy Strong Bad. Um... so I was just reading on my Internet... about how tofu is made from little baby seals. Yeah, so like, all this time, you've been eatin', um, little baby seals. So what? I guess you're gonna keel over, at like, any second now at the thought of all these little baby seals running around in your stomach. I mean, that's just gross. Just plain old gross. So in conclusion... you should listen to your cable man. ''{crunching noises}''

=== Message 2: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': So I just got this message you left for me on Pom Pom's cell phone telling me to go away and pick up sticks. Well I say that is GARBAGE, sister! Having to put up with you is like having to put up with GARBAGE! I don't know where you get off, but it's definitely not at the Homestar Station anymore. Looks like you're riding the 7:30 alone train to ALONEVILLE. Making stops at Ex-Girlfriend Junction and West BREAKIN' UP WITH YOU! Oh, and you can ''keep'' the collector's plates!

=== Message 1: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Okay, so after a ''second'' listening under the tutelage of Pom Pom's keen ears, it appears that you were asking me to go to Which Way and pick up some Hefty bags, not to go away and pick up sticks. And now that I think about it, I don't really know what that would have meant even if you ''had'' said that. So, best thing to do is... to go back and not listen to that message, and then we've got nothing to worry about. Oh, wait... in fact... ''{makes backwards sounding noises}'' Okay, there. I think I reversed it.

'''POM POM''': ''{bubble noises}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': What? What do you mean that doesn't work? Oh crap. ''{runs to Marzipan's house with a tape full of fake messages}'' All's I gotta do is switch out the tapes and none will be the wiser.

=== Fake Greeting: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{doing a poor imitation of Marzipan}'' Oh, hey, this is Marzipan... and, uhm... leave a message after my beeps. Beep.

=== Fake Message 4: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{doing a poor imitation of Strong Bad}'' Oh, hey, Marzipan. This is the Strong Bad. Uh... go around... go around with doo doo on your head.. 'cause it could be funny. Okay, bye. Beep!

=== Fake Message 3: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{doing a poor imitation of Coach Z with no accent}'' Hey there, Marzipan. This is Coach Z. I was just wonderin' why you weren't at field hockey practice today. Um... great job. Oh, I mean... great job. Oh, I mean... great job. Boop!

=== Fake Message 2: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{doing a poor imitation of...himself}'' Hey there, Marzipan, this is your boyfriend, Homestar Runner. You're the best girlfriend I ever had. Let's have a marriage. Let's have a marriage license. Okay, bye. Boop!

=== Fake Message 1: ===
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{in a depressed tone}'' Oh, hey Marzipan this is Strong Sad. Um... some animal died. Boop!

== Fun Facts ==
*Homestar also used the phrase "some animal died" for his Strong Sad impression in the [[impression]] email.
*Homestar's fake Coach Z is a reference to the toon "[[A Jorb Well Done]]."

207.30.19.219: /* Easter Eggs */

[[Image:sbemail115.png|thumb|Some sort of challenge buried in the GROOOUUND??]]

'''Strong Bad Email #115'''

[[Strong Bad]] tells us what he would put in a time capsule, to preserve his awesomeness after his death and be opened in X0 years.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[Coach Z]] (easter egg), [[Homestar Runner]], [[Stinkoman]], [[20X6 Homestar]]

'''Date:''' October 4, 2004

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:''' Checkin' emails with a VISCOSITY since 2001, it's a Strong Bad Email.

''{reading}''

<pre>dear STRONG bad,
you are extremely awesome but how are
you going to be soooo awesome if you'rre
dead? why not make a time capsule of
stuff filled with stuff about you to
be opened in at least X0 years.
please answer this,
sam concord california</pre>

''{Strong Bad puts an extreme emphasis on the STRONG in Strong Bad, says "This, I know" after "you are extremely awesome," reads "soooo" as "sue," pronounces "you'rre" as spelled, pronounces "capsule" as "capsoole," and pronounces "X0" as "exty"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Rest assured, Shim-Sham Sam, my time capsule would reign supreme. Like your hot single Mom is gonna wanna date my time capsule. So, the key to a good time capsule is it being an actual capsule. None of these shoe boxes or tennis ball cans. No. Those things are called time boxes and time tennis ball cans. ''{clears screen, continues typing}'' Those are different and lame and differently lame. And they always get dug up in about 4 days. And they're filled with uncool stuff like those leaf rubbin's ''{an image of leaf rubbings pops up}''and current newspaper clippin's ''{a newspaper clipping pops up}'' and... toenail snippin's? ''{toenail snippings pop up onscreen}'' Anybody? ''{clears screen, continues typing}'' Anyways, I'm talking about a f'real capsule. Y'know, like a big old headache medicine. So, what kinda cool stuff should I put in there? I guess I'd throw in a cassette tape with one of my #1 jams on it. And then in the future it'd be a huge hit and they'd send all the royalties and groupies back in time to me right... ''{mumbles to self for a second}'' NOW!

''{The doorbell rings. Cut to zoomed out view of Strong Bad at his computer desk}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Holy gosh! It worked! I'm the meanest genius!

''{Homestar enters holding a shoebox}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey Strong Bad, hey, can I put this gross old wig in your time machine?

''{Homestar produces a gross old wig from the shoebox}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uhhm, it's a CAPSULE, no, and I hate you, get out.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cool cool.

''{Homestar puts the gross old wig on his face}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Why would you want to put that nasty old thing in a time capsule anyway?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' 'Cause it's gross and nasty and old and I don't want it.

''{Homestar takes the wig off and puts it on Strong Bad's floppy disk container}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' It's not a TRASH capsule. Look, this is for COOL stuff so people of the future know how cool I am.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well then I'll just make my OWN time box with a gross old wig in it. So all the future peoples will know I had a gross old wig!

''{Homestar puts the gross old wig back in the shoebox}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Good. Now leave.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yep!

''{Homestar leaves. Cut back to Compy 386}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' And I might as well spit in it, just in case they ever figure out how to make people from spit. Ooh! Then I'd put some dry ice in there so when they open it up it looks all smoky and steamy and it says a-like "froosh" when they first open it. There'll be no doubt about my coolty.

''{Cut to the field, circa 20X6. Stinkoman is kneeling in front of a hole with dirt around his mouth}''

'''STINKOMAN:''' Oh man, those first four hundred bites of dirt were not so good. Maybe the next one will be better.

''{Stinkoman sticks his hand in the hole where it makes an audible clanging sound against an unseen object}''

'''STINKOMAN:''' WHAAAT is this? Some sort of a challenge buried in the GROUUUND?

''{Stinkoman snatches a red and white capsule out of the hole. It opens with Strong Bad saying "froosh," and a cassette tape is revealed}''

'''STINKOMAN:''' Lookie here! A power crunch!

''{Stinkoman grabs the cassette and jams it into his mouth, crunching it up}''

'''STINKOMAN:''' It tastes like a #1 jam!

''{Stinkoman suddenly stands up, and bulks up , making the clich� powering up sound. 20X6 Homestar walks in with the gross old wig on his head}''

'''20X6 HOMESTAR:''' ''{not noticing Stinkoman's Ultra Saiyan form}'' Hey Stinkoman! Look what I found buried in a time box!

''{Cut back to the present and the Compy 386}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Yeah, cassette tape is definitely the way to go. What could ever replace the durability of magnetic tape? Duct tape maybe. Man, I wonder when those groupies and royalties are getting here. What about right (hamina hooo) NOW! ''{stops typing}'' CRAP! OK, what about right... here it comes, just a little bit longer NOW! Ugh. This could take a while.

''{The Paper comes down.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, the time is passing by, oh it's such a lovely day NOW! 5-4-3-2-1-NOW! 5-4-3-2-1-NOW! 3-2-1-NOW! 2-1-NOW! NOW! 1-NOW! NOW!

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
*The newspaper clipping reads:
<pre>Oct 4. - Little Boy Saves Turtle!
"I found it in my shoe!!!"
News - A local boy named "Geoff," found a turtle in his shoe
and returned it to the terrarium on his desk. "His name is Slowbie,
but now I think I'll call him Mr. Shoe." The boy's mother is very
proud of her son. Calls to the turtle's mother were not immediately
returned, but most agree she would be proud of Slowbie/Mr. Shoe.</pre>
*The date on newspaper clipping, October 4, is the day this e-mail was released.
===Remarks===
*After making fun of Sam's typos, Strong Bad goes and miscapitalizes "Mom," which takes the lowercase after the possessive "your."
*When Strong Bad thought the royalties came he said "holy gosh!" instead of saying his favorite phrase, "holy crap"!
*When Stinkoman opens the time capsule, the wheels of the tape are still (or already) turning.
*At one point, Homestar manages to suspend the gross old wig, the shoebox lid, and the shoebox itself, in midair at the same time. This suggests that Homestar may have more than two invisible "arms" used to hold objects up.
*If dry ice ''had'' been put into the capsule, then it would have popped open just a few moments after Strong Bad closed it. Dry ice is a genericized trademark for solid carbon dioxide. This solid form is constantly sublimating to carbon dioxide gas, so it cannot be stored in a sealed container as the pressure build up will eventually cause the container to explode. Additionally, carbon dioxide gas is heavier than air and would sink to the ground, instead of flowing out and up from the capsule as seen in the email.

===Inside References===
*Homestar Runner's Time Box is a [[Freshley's]] shoe box, the same one he wore on one of his feet in "[[anything]]".
*The year "exty/X0" is a reference the [[20X6]] era. Suitably, [[Stinkoman]] shows up in a ''flashforward'' (like a flashback).
*Stinkoman is willing to eat dirt as he was in [[Under Construction]].
*"Slowbie" MIGHT be a reference to "[[2 years]]", in which Strong Bad called [[The Cheat]] the same thing.
*"Grumblecakes" is a clear reference to "[[stupid stuff]]".
*The time capsule looks an awful lot like the [[The Isle of Pom]].
*Strong Bad sounds like [[Senor Cardgage]] when he mumbles.
*The hole in the ground is the exact same shape as the one that will be in [[Strongbadia]] 2 years from when the email [[2 years]] was written.
*[[The Strong Bad]] effectively left a time capsule for Strong Bad by enclosing half his mustache in a letter in an easter egg in the email [[flashback]]. Strong Bad hasn't been seen with this envelope, however, unlike Stinkoman with Strong Bad's time capsule.
*The gross old wig is probably the wig Homestar wore as part of his Kurt Cobain costume in [[Homestarloween Party]].

===Real-World References===
*"Grumblecakes" sounds a lot like Burn by Usher.
*The "hamina-hoo" sound he makes at the end is very similar to the noise made by the Nintendo character Yoshi.

[[Image:old_comics_screenshot.png|thumb|The Castlefunnies]]

'''Strong Bad Email #112'''

Zack asks Strong Bad why the King of Town has a Poopsmith, and Strong Bad tells him about the Castlefunnies.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[West Is Lip]], [[The King of Town]], [[The Poopsmith]] (as Mushy Chamberpot), [[Homestar Runner]], [[The Knight]] (easter egg), [[Strong Mad]] (easter egg)

'''Date:''' August 30, 2004

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:''' {''singing''} Let's get it over with! With the e-mail style, get it over with!

{''pulls up e-mail and reads it''}

<pre>
hey SB,
why does the king of town have a
poopsmith?

your friend,
zack
west islip, NY
</pre>

{''Strong Bad pronounces SB as one word''}

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! West Islip. Sounds like some kind of British New Wave band. "And coming in this week at #4, it's those androgynous boys from Hertfordshire, West Is Lip {''sound of a tape player switching on, music starts playing''} with their hit single "She Partied Without Dancing."

'''WEST IS LIP:''' {''singing''} She partied without dancing. She partied with my heart.

{''music stops, Strong Bad starts typing''}

'''STRONG BAD:''' Anyways, Jack, the King of Town's just always had a Poopsmith. Even way back when they got their start as an old syndicated newspaper comic. You know, back when comics didn't seem to need jokes or humor or readers under the age of ninety-one.

{''Cut to desk. Panel One of The Castlefunnies slides into the scene, featuring the KOT speaking to Mushy Chamberpot who is working at a pile of you-know-what.''}

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} I fell down and lost my crown.

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''voiceover''} It was called "The Castlefunnies," which I guess was a pathetic attempt by the authors into fooling you {''Panel two slides on the screen, we see the KOT's hip is throbbing and Mushy digging into the pile''} into thinking it was actually funny.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} D'ya have any hip rub in thar?

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''voiceover''} It mostly featured the King of Town {''Panel three slides in. Mushy looks irritated and has the King's crown on his shovel along with some you-know-what''} complaining about his ailing hip joints to the Poopsmith.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} That's no ointment!

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''voiceover''} Talking a lot about ointments... {''Panel four slides on the screen, with the KOT addressing the reader''} and salves.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} Cures what ails ya!!

{''Second comic appears. The KOT is standing by himself''}

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption, thought balloon''} Yep, I'm old.

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''voiceover''} Back then, it was considered a form of treason to print the word "poop" in the paper, so instead they called the Poopsmith {''Panel two slides onto the screen. The KOT is addressing Mushy''} "Mushy Chamberpot," which is actually pretty funny sounding.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} I say, Mushy, do you have a pittance for me'self?

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''voiceover''} Anyways, Mushy could only talk in {''Panel three slides on the screen. Mushy is speaking while the KOT laughs in the background''} word clouds filled with commas, which I think had just been discovered and were apparently considered comic gold.

'''MUSHY CHAMBERPOT:''' {''caption''} ,,,,,,,,,,,

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} HAR HAR HAR HAR HAR HAR

{''Panel four slides on the screen. The sun appears to be setting, and the KOT is addressing Mushy, who is once again working at the pile.''}

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} Ahem. I need money to get that new fangled sur-jur-ee to fix my hips.

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''voiceover''} Oh yeah, I can see why THIS masterwork took two dudes to write it. One to NOT think of something funny, {''Panel five slides on the screen. The KOT is addressing the reader again while a squirrel with a bag of money runs away in the background''} and the other to think of something NOT funny.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} A quarter never asked is a quarter never given!

{''Third comic appears. Panel one features the KOT scurrying along.''}

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} Today is 'Goodtime Day!'

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''voiceover''} So later on, as readership began to dwindle, {''Panel two slides on the screen. The KOT is addressing Homestar and Strong Bad''} they'd throw me and Homestar in there as guests and hope they'd be mooching off our popularity.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} Who be you?

{''Panel three slides on the screen. Strong Bad and Homestar are talking''}

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''caption''} How could you forget STRONG BAD???

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' {''caption''} Wha 'bout me?

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''voiceover''} It worked for maybe a week or so, but then the strip was sadly canceled {''Panel four slides on the screen. The KOT addresses Strong Bad and Homestar as Strong Bad punches Homestar in the face''} when the last living reader

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} You're the worst of friends.

{''Panel five slides on the screen. The KOT, Strong Bad, and Homestar are dressed up in Civil War garb in front of a tombstone that reads "Let's call him Chester: 'He loved The Castlefunnies.'"}

'''STRONG BAD:''' {''voiceover''} a Civil War veteran and creamed corn enthusiast, died.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' {''caption''} Thank you to All Our Reader.

{''Cut back to the Compy 386 and Strong Bad's typing''}

'''STRONG BAD:''' They tried to creep back into the mainstream years later with the release of the "King Castlefunny Pencil Moistener?!" But, considering, the Dry Pencil Scare of '47 only lasted 3 days, they didn't sell too many.

{''Strong Bad clears the screen of text.''}

'''STRONG BAD:''' Well, Zack, there you have it. The King of Town still wasn't funny. What a surprise. I'm going to start the Who Put Pasta Salad in Strong Mad's Underdrawer Drawer Scare of '04. Or. And I'm out.

== Fun Facts ==
===Explanations===
* The KOT's line in the fifth panel of the second comic is a reference to "giving quarter", or showing mercy to a nearly vanquished enemy, who has "asked for quarter", or begged for mercy.
===Trivia===
*Zooming into the SWF file it is seen that the characters are filled in with a square pattern to give them texture and the quality of newsprint.

===Goofs===
*Strong Bad talks about his and Homestar Runner's appearance keeping things interesting for "a week or so", but they're paying honors to their last reader (and getting cancelled) the ''exact same strip'' they first appear. (Unless, of course, the strip shown here is not the one they first appeared in. The context and strip dialogue is a bit confusing.)
*Strong Bad makes a classic American mistake when he pronounces Hertfordshire as Hert instead of Hart.

===Remarks===
* Everybody in the comic has a nose, a feature that most cast members currently lack.
*Like the storybook in "flashback", it is debatable whether this comic is really part of H*R continuity or not.
*There is debate as to whether or not Strong Bad actually answered Zack's question.
===Inside References===
* "The [[Castle Funnies]]" comic is co-authored by [[Lem Sportsinterviews]] and [[Levert Burtmore]], both of whom are previously known authors and cartoonists.
*The spoon in Strong Mad's easter egg is the one Homestar uses as "Colonel" of the [[Homestarmy]].
*The table that the funnies are showed on is the same table that was in Strong Bad's 2 kids books, Everyone is Different (shown in [[kids' book]]), and That Time of Year (from [[Decemberween Kids' Book]]).

===Real-World References===
* Mushy Chamberpot only speaking in commas may be a reference to Woodstock from the classic comic strip Peanuts, who could only speak using apostrophes.
* The Discoveration of the Comma may be a reference to Austin Powers, in which Dr. Evil's father claims to have invented the question mark. It may also be a reference to the urban legend of Domenico da Comma, the supposed inventor of the comma.
*"New Wave" was an '80s musical genre, a strong precursor to modern day dance pop. A strong part of the style came out of England (with bands such as "Frankie Goes to Hollywood" and "Tears for Fears") and slightly androgynous appearances were a standard part of its visual style.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{speaking sarcastically}'' Oh, no, final warning. Is there nothing I can do to dissuade you? Like maybe give you a ride in my BMW?!?

''{Cut back to the calendar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then to better help folks over the hump, on Wednesdays I give free motivational lectures.

''{"give lecture" is written in on Wednesday. Cut to the chalkboard with Coach Z and Strong Mad listening to Strong Bad}''

'''COACH Z:''' I'm a new man!

'''STRONG MAD:''' I'M THE HUMP!

''{cut back to the calendar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Due to a prior arrest, Thursdays are community service days, so me and the old Cheatasaurus head down to Strong Badia and give the place a firm scrubbin'.

''{"community service" gets written in for Thursday. Cut to Strong Badia, where Strong Bad is vacuuming the dirt and The Cheat is washing the Tire}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know what I always say, The Cheat. Stay smart, vacuum... dirt.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Don't forget to wash where the sun don't shine.

''{cut back to the calendar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then there's Business Casual Fridays, or as we say around the office, Biz Cas Fri. ''{"biz cas fri" appears on the Friday box}'' You know, because we have to abrev. everything.

''{cut to the office}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' That's the day we all wear the free polo shirts we got from various software companies.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, man. Did you play Online Gaming last night? No, yeah, no? I did. I got so many frags.

''{cut back to the calendar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' On Saturday I certainly don't wake up at 6 A.M., put on a Speedo, and go to swim practice. ''{"NOT swim practice" gets written in the Saturday box}'' No, no, definitely not Speedo. But I do attend: {''a flyer for Battle Axe Lessons appears onscreen, "NOT swim practice" is replaced by "BATTLE AXE LESSONS!" in the Saturday box}'' BATTLE AXE LESSONS AT THE REC CENTER, with my teacher Dolph Hauldhagen, The Instruc-TOR! And of course, Sunday is the OTHER day I check my email, for our Eastern European viewers across the pond.

''{"checka my eastern european emails" gets written in for Sunday. Cut to Strong Bad sitting at a gray computer with the word "BLOCK" in the bottom-left corner}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I got a Polish e-mail in my pocket, and I think it's starting to melt.

''{Strong Bad gets up and leaves. The Paper comes down}''

*Brian Holmes and 'Holmes' (from [[huttah!]]) are both from California.
*Dolph Hauldhagen is just Matt with a viking helmet, nothing else.

===Remarks===
*The calendar starts on Monday, as per some European countries. United States calendars usually start on Sunday.
*Strong Bad's advice to "make Piemonade" is a reference to the saying "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade".
*While talking about online gaming, Homestar Runner says, "I got so many frags". It seems he's been playing numerous [[Wikipedia:First-person shooter|first-person shooters]], in which a "frag" is a kill.

===Goofs===
*When Homestar says "so many frags" and is looking to the left, "Diskettes Etc." appears backwards for a split second.
===Inside References===
*This is the third instance of Strong Bad's [[Couch Mumbling | couch mumbling]].
*[[The Office]] where "biz cas fri" takes place is the same as in [[dullard]] and the [[Senor Mortgage]] short, and the conversation is very reminiscient of that from 'dullard'.
*[[The Classroom|The classroom]] in which Strong Bad gives the "Motivational Speech" is the room in which he tries to teach people how to pronounce [[fhqwhgads]] in the email entitled [[sibbie]].
*When Strong Bad mentions having to do community service, it is likely a reference to the [[Strong Bad Is In Jail Cartoon]].

===Real-World References===
*When Strong Sad is waking up Strong Bad for swim practice, he mumbles various things, ranging from "I'll kill you" to the name of the classic [[Wikipedia:Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] [[Wikipedia:CRPG|RPG]], ''[[Wikipedia:Chrono Trigger|Chrono Trigger]]''. The "I'll kill you" in the swim practice easter egg might be directed at Magus, a villain/party member in the game. ''(also see Inside References)''
*The name of his other computer, "[[Block]]", is a reference to the Soviet Bloc - those Eastern European nations which were under communist government.
*The translation method used for the "Eastern European Email" is one actually used on Polish television. The original sound will be overdubbed by one or more translators rather than subtitled.
*The text on the battle axe lesson flyer which instructs you to bring your own axe and exercise mat is in the same font as Iron Maiden's name almost always appears. One of their first ever songs, "Invasion", only released on a four track album of which 5000 copies were made, was about viking invaders.
*"Invasion" later appeared on Iron Maiden's 1982 classic album "The Number of the Beast" as "Invaders".
*Strongbad's imitation of a robot seems to be a reference to Harry in the documentary "Spellbound", a spelling bee contestant who spontaneously replies to a question from the interviewer in a robotic voice, and finishes off by saying "I-am-a-musical-robot. Do-I-sound-like-a-musical-robot?"
*The line "positate the negative" refers to the album Accentuate the Positive, by John Mercer.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' That's the day we all wear the free polo shirts we got from various software companies.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, man. Did you play Online Gaming last night? No, yeah, no? I did. I got so many frags.

''{cut back to the calendar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' On Saturday I certainly don't wake up at 6 A.M., put on a Speedo, and go to swim practice. ''{"NOT swim practice" gets written in the Saturday box}'' No, no, definitely not Speedo. But I do attend: {''a flyer for Battle Axe Lessons appears onscreen, "NOT swim practice" is replaced by "BATTLE AXE LESSONS!"}'' BATTLE AXE LESSONS AT THE REC CENTER, with my teacher Dolph Hauldhagen, The Instruc-TOR! And of course, Sunday is the OTHER day I check my email, for our Eastern European viewers across the pond.

''{"checka my eastern european emails" gets written in for Sunday. Cut to Strong Bad sitting at a gray computer with the word "BLOCK" in the bottom-left corner}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I got a Polish e-mail in my pocket, and I think it's starting to melt.

''{reading, translator speaks over Strong Bad in badly pronounced Polish: Silny Złe: Prosze rozwiazywac sznurowadło z styl głowe. Januś, Polska}''

<pre>Dear Strong Bad:
Please to be untieing that shoelace on
the back of your head?

Janus
Poland</pre>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Untie my shoelace, eh Janus? Your 
mother is the speed limit. 
Your aspirin, 
Strong Bad

''{Translator continues: Rozwiazywac sznurowadło, eh Janek? Twoja matka jest ograniczenia predkosci. Z aspriną, Silny Złe}''

''{cut back to Compy 386}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's pretty much my week. Now time for a refreshing glass of piemonade, or as we say around the office, p-nade.

''{Strong Bad gets up and leaves. The Paper comes down}''

== Easter Eggs ==

*Brian Holmes and 'Holmes' (from [[huttah!]]) are both from California.
*Dolph Hauldhagen is just Matt with a viking helmet, nothing else.

===Remarks===
*The calendar starts on Monday, as per some European countries. United States calendars usually start on Sunday.
*Strong Bad's advice to "make Piemonade" is a reference to the saying "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade".
*While talking about online gaming, Homestar Runner says, "I got so many frags". It seems he's been playing numerous [[Wikipedia:First-person shooter|first-person shooters]], in which a "frag" is a kill.

===Goofs===
*When Homestar says "so many frags" and is looking to the left, "Diskettes Etc." appears backwards for a split second.
===Inside References===
*This is the third instance of Strong Bad's [[Couch Mumbling | couch mumbling]].
*[[The Office]] where "biz cas fri" takes place is the same as in [[dullard]] and the [[Senor Mortgage]] short, and the conversation is very reminiscient of that from 'dullard'.
*[[The Classroom|The classroom]] in which Strong Bad gives the "Motivational Speech" is the room in which he tries to teach people how to pronounce [[fhqwhgads]] in the email entitled [[sibbie]].
*When Strong Bad mentions having to do community service, it is likely a reference to the [[Strong Bad Is In Jail Cartoon]].

===Real-World References===
*When Strong Sad is waking up Strong Bad for swim practice, he mumbles various things, ranging from "I'll kill you" to the name of the classic [[Wikipedia:Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] [[Wikipedia:CRPG|RPG]], ''[[Wikipedia:Chrono Trigger|Chrono Trigger]]''. The "I'll kill you" in the swim practice easter egg might be directed at Magus, a villain/party member in the game. ''(also see Inside References)''
*The name of his other computer, "[[Block]]", is a reference to the Soviet Bloc - those Eastern European nations which were under communist government.
*The translation method used for the "Eastern European Email" is one actually used on Polish television. The original sound will be overdubbed by one or more translators rather than subtitled.
*The text on the battle axe lesson flyer which instructs you to bring your own axe and exercise mat is in the same font as Iron Maiden's name almost always appears. One of their first ever songs, "Invasion", only released on a four track album of which 5000 copies were made, was about viking invaders.
*"Invasion" later appeared on Iron Maiden's 1982 classic album "The Number of the Beast" as "Invaders".
*Strongbad's imitation of a robot seems to be a reference to Harry in the documentary "Spellbound", a spelling bee contestant who spontaneously replies to a question from the interviewer in a robotic voice, and finishes off by saying "I-am-a-musical-robot. Do-I-sound-like-a-musical-robot?"
*The line "positate the negative" refers to the album Accentuate the Positive, by John Mercer.

'''Date:''' March 22, 2004

Page Title: '''The Bighouse!'''

== Transcript ==
''{We begin at nighttime, seeing the silhouette of Bubs' Concession Stand and the woods behind it. Strong Bad and The Cheat, clad in black, sneak up to the back of the stand. As they glance around to make sure nobody's watching, The Cheat squeaks.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': You said it, The Cheat! Once we get our hands on Bubs' fundraiser candy bars, our troubles will be ''over''. We can retire, maybe get a little place in Strong Badia... I dunno... ''{The Cheat squeaks}'' Alright, remember the drill. Go straight for the crispy crackly ones! Don't waste your time on them plain ol' chocolates. Those things are fool's gold! Okay, hand me the explosives. ''{The Cheat hands Strong Bad a bunch of Fthoom-Bang brand bottle rockets duct-taped together, then lights them. Strong Bad sets them against the back door of Bubs' stand, and they both take cover. The rockets launch and fireworks explode in the sky.}'' The Cheat, I told you to remove the fthoom! All we needed was the bang!

''{Homestar Runner arrives, making siren noises.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Weh ooh weh ooh weh ooh weh...

'''STRONG BAD''': Oh no, we've been found ou--

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': DoooooooOOOOOOOOOOWIP! DoooooooOOOOOOOOOOWIP!

'''STRONG BAD''': Oh no, we've--

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Meh! Meh! Meh! Meh!

'''STRONG BAD''': Oh--

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': DooooooooDEEEEEEEEEEdooooooooDEEEEEEEEEE!

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{exasperated}'' Oh no we've been found out.

''{Coach Z walks up behind them}''

'''COACH Z''': I mighta guessed you was behind all this!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Coach Z, get these low-lifes out of my sight!

''{Coach Z starts dragging them off}''

'''STRONG BAD''': You set me up! You set me up! The Cheat, te-tell him that he set you up. ''{The Cheat starts yelling with him}'' YOU SET ME UP!!!

''{Cut to title sequence. We're given mugshots of Strong Bad along with the titles. '''"THE BROTHERS CHAPS PRESENT"''' '''"THE FIRST CARTOON IN A WHILE"''' '''"WE LIKE TO CALL IT"''' '''"STRONG BAD IS IN JAIL CARTOON"''' '''"MISSY AND MATT ON VOCALS"''' '''"MIKE ON DRUMS"''' Cut to Strong Sad sitting at a table writing a letter.}''

'''STRONG SAD''': Dear Prisoner Number 5408, aka Strong Bad, aka Professor Tor Coolguy, I can only hope your incarceration turns your life around as much as it has mine. I feel... cooler, and... less like I suck so bad. I've made some changes around the house. Your computer room is now my Tai Chi space. ''{Cut to the computer room, where Strong Sad has set up calligraphy scrolls, Taijitu (Yin Yang symbols), and a candle, while he performs tai chi.}'' Hai-toh... Beng... Gait! ''{back to him writing}'' Well, I gotta go. Marzipan and I have a {enunciates heavily} ''baklava'' in the oven. Hoping you don't get shivved, Strong Sad.

''{Cut to jail, which is just a cardboard box with slits cut in it sitting in the field. Strong Mad is visiting, and Strong Bad has a hairnet on. Judging by the tally marks on the inside of the cell, they've been there a week.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': You gotta get us outta the joint, man! I don't think The Cheat is gonna make it!

''{Cut to The Cheat, who's frothing at the mouth and has hair sticking all over the place, going crazy. He's standing by three metal cans marked Food, Water, and Eww.}''

'''STRONG MAD''': WRAH!

''{Strong Mad lifts up the box}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Sweet lady freedom! Let's make out!

''{The Cheat wipes off the froth, fixes his hair, and squeaks what sounds like...}''

'''THE CHEAT''': Let's make out!

'''STRONG BAD''': Hey shut up! What are you, horning in on my girl? Only I get to make out with--''{The Cheat corrects him with a squeak}'' Oh. Right. The escaping.

''{They run off. Strong Mad puts the box down and stands there for a while, blinking, before holding up a yellow jackhammer labelled "JACK HAMMA!" smashed into a yellow cake with pink icing and put on a plate.}''

'''STRONG MAD''': I BROUGHT YOU A CAKE!

''{Cut to the field. Marzipan is reading a newspaper, and Homestar walks up to her.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Hey, lady!

'''MARZIPAN''': Homestar, did you know that crime is on the rise?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Yeah, I know [[Strong_Bad_is_in_Jail_Cartoon#Footnotes|[1]]]. Is it?

'''MARZIPAN''': Yes, things are very serious now. So what are you going to do to protect me?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Um, I could put a dash between Homestar and Runner from now on.

'''MARZIPAN''': Really? You'd do that for me?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': {laughs} No, of course not!

''{Marzipan frowns and glares. Strong Bad and The Cheat run past in the distance, carrying off the King of Town's crown. It seems Strong Bad chugged down a few bottles of soy sauce, judging from his ramblings.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Oh man, The Cheat, we struck it rich this time! Now we can retire to da MOOOOOOOOOOOON!

''{Cut to inside police headquarters. Coach Z and Bubs are doing a police sketch of the thief of the King of Town's crown.}''

'''BUBS''': So, describe to me what the perpetrator looked like.

'''THE KING OF TOWN''': Had a head like a big ol' round ol'...

'''BUBS''': Okay...

'''THE KING OF TOWN''': Red ol'...

'''BUBS''': Uh-huh...

'''THE KING OF TOWN''': Nasty ol' egg!

'''BUBS''': I see...

'''THE KING OF TOWN''': And hands looked like biscuit dough!

'''BUBS''': Uh-huh! Is this the man! ''{Holds up a sketch of a guy in a sweater with the number 7 on it with biscuit-dough hands and a craggy face, looking nothing like Strong Bad. He has a speech bubble saying "I did it!!"}''

'''COACH Z''': It was Biscuit-Dough Hands Man! I knew it!

''{Cut to Strong Badia. Strong Bad and the Cheat are hiding out behind the fence, where they've stashed all their loot. Among their loot is a cookie jar that looks like Trivia Time, the framed picture titled "Thank You" from Marzipan's house, Strong Sad's iPod, and some bags labeled "some savings". The Cheat is wearing the King of Town's hat.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Come on, The Cheat! Quit being such an old The Cheat! We gotta come out of retirement for this one last job! ''{The Cheat replies}'' Nononono, NOnononono! It's like this: the ransom money becomes the new retirement money. And the retirement money becomes the new college fund. And the college fund... eh, we blow on a really tricked-out van. ''{The Cheat ponders, then agrees. Strong Bad turns aside and starts talking to himself}'' Yes! Another victim claimed by Strong Bad's Powers of Persuasion! No living The Cheat can resist the P.O.P.! ''{The Cheat squeaks, annoyed}'' Hang on, I'm not done yet! ''{turns aside again}'' And uh... um... okay I was done. Let's go.

''{Cut to the inside of the King of Town's castle, nighttime. The King of Town arrives home.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN''': Poopsmith, I'm home! Man, I feel like some serious biscuit-dough. Poopsmith? ''{goes outside}'' Poopsmith! ''{Goes to the pile of whatsit. The shovel is there, the pile is there, the Poopsmith is not.}'' Poopsmith? ''{We zoom in on the shovel and hear The Brothers Chaps going "Dun-dun-DUN!"}'' THEY'VE STOLEN MY POOPSMITH!

''{Cut to the field. Homestar Runner and Pom Pom are out there, and Homestar has a flashlight.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Alright, Pom Pom, the Poopsmith is missing, and we gots to find him! We're your first and last line of defense! Only YOU can prevent scouting! Boy, do we need forest fires! ''{turns around for a second, and then turns back to Pom Pom}'' A-ha! Pom Pom! ''{clicks the flashlight on and shines it in his face}'' What are you doing out past curfew? ''{Pom Pom bubbles, confused}'' Don't play games with me, Roundy-Man! Just who are you working with? ''{Pom Pom bubbles}'' Homestar Runner, eh? Sounds like a no-goodnik to me! ''{Starts clicking the light on and off in Pom Pom's face, who's now very annoyed. He bubbles. Homestar sniffs him.}'' Pom Pom... did you step in something?

''{Cut to Strongbadia, daytime, behind the fence. Frank Bennedetto and the Poopsmith are the latest additions to Strong Bad's stash, the Poopsmith being tied-up and duct-taped across the mouth.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Alright, doodie-man. It's time to deliver my ultimate ultimatum! The Cheat! Ready with the viderocamera! ''{The Cheat squeaks and holds up a camera with "property of kevin" written on it. He begins filming.}'' Wait, hang on! Almost forgot to disguise my identity! ''{puts on a red ski mask with a cutout for his nose}'' Now we're ready. Attention, whatever weirdos are concerned about the Poopsmith!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{off screen}'' Oh, hey Strong Bad. ''{camera pans to see Homestar standing right there, Pom Pom close behind}''

'''STRONG BAD''': What the-? Aww, holy crap! I ''thought'' I smelled bacon! How'd you find us!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': We followed this mysterious trail the Poopsmith left!

'''STRONG BAD''': Ew!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': That, and we got an anonymous tip from Strong Sad.

''{Strong Sad peeks out from behind the fence}''

'''STRONG SAD''': I told them you were behind the fence.

'''STRONG BAD''': You sold me out! You sold me out! The Cheat, tell him that he... oh, never mind.

''{Coach Z and Bubs walk up}''

'''BUBS''': Oh man! It's just Strong Bad!

'''COACH Z''': Once again, Biscuit-Dough Hands Man slips through our fingers!

''{they grab Strong Bad and The Cheat and drag them off, The Cheat squeaking in protest}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Well, kids and people, it just goes to show, Strong Sad doing tai chi is really, really funny.

''{Strong Sad peeks out from behind the fence again}''

'''STRONG SAD''': Hey!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': What? It was! ''{Homestar starts imitating Strong Sad's tai chi}'' You were all like Pah-ku-lah! Honh! Pwing!

''{Marzipan walks in with a plate full of baklava}''

'''MARZIPAN''': Who wants some ''bak-a-lava''? ''{the cartoon fades out}'' ''Baka-ma-lava'' anybody?

''{The cartoon sits at the "THE END" screen for a while, then fades in to Marzipan's Answering Machine.}''

'''MARZIPAN''': ''{on the answering machine}'' Hi, this is Marzipan.

''{beep}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{on the answering machine}'' Hello, Marzipan! This is Professor Tor Coolguy! I was just calling to see if you'd be interested in PREPARING FOR YOUR DOOM! Er... not really calling to see, uh... I shouldn't have really given you a choice, I mean, uh... you should just go ahead and prepare for your doom. Cause it's on its way, man. It's gonna be some doom. ''{beep}''

''{Cut to jail, where Strong Bad has been using the "Eww." can as a phone. Strong Mad is still outside the jail.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Ho-ho! Great idea, The Cheat! Even on the inside, Professor Tor Coolguy cannot be stopped!

''{The Brothers Chaps go "Dun-dun-DUN!" and the cartoon fades out again to the "THE END" page. But after a while, we cut to Strongbadia at nighttime, behind the fence. The loot isn't there anymore, but The Poopsmith is, tied-up, and duct-taped over his mouth. After a while, Homestar Runner walks up to him, clicking the flashlight on and off in his face.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Alright, buster, move it along here! Nothing to see, nothing to see! ''{continues to click the flashlight on and off in his face for a while, then pauses, then pulls out the sketch of Biscuit-Dough Hands Man}'' Is this you?

=== Footnotes ===
'''[1]''' ''There is some debate concerning whether this phrase is "Yeah, no," or "Yeah, I know." A poll was actually created regarding it, concluding that "Yeah, I know. Is it?" was the correct quote.''

== Easter Eggs ==
*If you wait around after the toon, you will get a a special [[Marzipan's Answering Machine]] message.
*If you wait even longer you will see The Poopsmith still tied up behind the fence, with Homestar Runner coming back to interrogate him.

== Fun Facts ==
===Explanations===
*"Shivved" is prison slang for being stabbed, i.e "He got shivved after they found out he was a snitch". A "shiv" is an improvised sharp knife-like weapon made in prison.

*Baklava is a greek dessert. There is a recipe for it [http://www.eatgreektonight.com/recipes/desserts/baklava.html here].

*The line "I thought I smelled bacon" refers to the derogatory term "pigs" for police. Phrases like this were often used on police/detective shows in the 70's by bad guys and shady informants when the police show up unexpectedly.

*Homestar's quote "Only YOU can prevent scouting! Boy do we need forest fires!" is a take off of a popular commercial featuring [[Wikipedia:Smokey the Bear|Smokey the Bear]], a sophisticated bear/forest ranger who taught about fire safety when camping in the woods in all of his commercials. His main catchphrase at the end of all of his commercials was "Only YOU can prevent forest fires!"
**Homestar may also be confusing Boy Scouts of America with Smokey Bear commercials.

===Trivia===
*Stolen goods that Strong Bad and The Cheat have stashed behind the fence:
**[[The King of Town]]'s Crown
**The Poopsmith
**[[Trivia Time]] Cookie Jar
**[[Senor Cardgage]]'s Aldi Bag
**[[Strong Sad's iPod]]
**Pom Pom's [[Pom Pilot]]
**[[Frank Bennedetto]] of the Homestarmy (the popcorn popper)
**The "Thank You" sign from Marzipan's living room
**Bags of "some savings"
*The newspaper Marzipan is reading says:
:'''The Latest News'''
:''It's all true. All the rumors are true. The crime is on the rise in our very own town. Trust me on this one. I know what I'm talking about. No, wait. I don't. I make stuff up sometimes. That's cool, though, right? Good. I'll keep doing it then. It's a lot easy than fact checking. That stuff can be annoying.''
:*This is then repeated eight times to fill up the paper.
*After The Poopsmith is captured, Strong Sad's iPod like device is present behind Strong Bad near the fence. The screen of this device says:
**playlists
**songs
**settings
*The title of the page is "The Bighouse!" At one time however, when the toon first appeared, the title was "Compy 386!!" just like a [[Strong Bad Email]]. This was fixed/changed to "The Bighouse!" within the first day.
*The Fireworks are called "Fthoom-Bang Brand bottle rockets".
*If you zoom in on the [[Floppy Disk Container]] in [[Computer Room|Strong Bad's computer room]]/Strong Sad's Tai-Chi room, it is called "Shogun". Rather fitting, considering all the oriental stuff in the room.
*The "videro" camera says "Property of [[Kevin]]."
*The lighter The Cheat uses is the [[BMW Lighter]].
===Remarks===
*The ruler Strong Bad stands next to in his prison photo indicates he's less than 4 feet tall.
*The Poopsmith's mouth is duct-taped shut, in spite of his vow of silence.
*The firework effects are taken from [[Main Page 12]].
*As Coach Z is dragging the Cheat and Strong Bad to jail, Strong Bad's feet make mud tracks, yet the Cheat's (paws?) mysteriously leave no tracks.

===Inside References===
*The phrase "We can retire to [[The Moon|the MOOOooooooooooooon!]]" is a reference to [[personal favorites]]".
*Homestar's 1st Tai-Chi pose is the same pose old-timey Homestar does in one of the movies for [[Kick the Can]].

===Real-World References===
*Prof. Tor Coolguy is a sort of play on Sol Badguy, a character from [[Wikipedia:Guilty Gear|Guilty Gear]].
*The letter writing scene seems to be reminiscent of the scene in the movie '[[Wikipedia:Hannibal|Hannibal]]', where Hannibal Lecter writes to Clarice Starling.
*The Cheat's "Henchman" shirt at the start of this cartoon seems to be an homage to the shirts worn by the henchmen on the old 60's "[[Batman]]" show. The villains always seemed to enjoy getting their lackeys shirts with their cheesy codename on them. The shirts were almost always black with plain white lettering.

On receiving an e-mail about [[Dangeresque]] 3, Strong Bad, who hasn't made it yet, gives us a director's cut of Dangeresque 1 instead.

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD''':''{singing}'' Oh, here comes little e-mail, with a gun in his hand...

''{reading}''
<pre>hi there strong bad,

i was just wondering,when is dangeresque 3 comeing out?

yours truly,
john newell, on</pre>

''{Strong Bad pronounces "comeing" as it is written (replete with spelling mistake), viz. "koh-may-ing". He also pronounces "john newell, on" (Ontario) as "johnny well, on"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa. I left my Johnny Well on. ''{He deletes "on" and types "off".}'' Johnny Well: off. ''{We hear the sound of a large machine powering down.}'' Man! People won't leave me alone about this one. ''{typing}'' Okay, okay, okay, okay. Dangeresque 3 production update! Day 114: Things are comeing ''{again pronounced "koh-may-ing"}'' along right on schedule. So far, we seem to have only hit one major snag. Um, and that is I haven't um, ''{as he types, the text gets smaller}'' made Dangeresque 3 yet. ''{text size returns to normal}'' But, before you start throwing full wine bottles at your computer screen, let me offer this as a cop-out: the digitally remastered director's cut of: ''Dangeresque 1: Dangeresque, too?''

''{We cut to Strong Bad wearing his Dangeresque glasses, sitting in the Gremlin, pretending to drive and humming the Dangeresque theme tune. The Cheat repeatedly runs by in the background holding a small tree to give the impression of movement. A sign is held up in front of the camera, moving around a little, reading: Dangeresque 1: "Dangeresque, Too?" followed by another, reading "Not in 3-D".}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{makes telephone ringing noises}'' Oh, my car phone. {''He picks up a VCR with a phone cord coming out of it.''} You got Dangeresque. Who this is?

''{Cut to Coach Z in his Renaldo costume. He is looking straight at the camera.}''

'''COACH Z''': Now?

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{whispering, off-screen}'' Yeah, go, go.

'''COACH Z''': ''{turns away from the camera and holds an unplugged phone receiver up to his ear}'' Hello, Dangeresque? It's Renaldo. I need you back here away, right? I mean, right away.

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{off-screen}'' Uh, I'm in a car right now, but I can drive it to the office.

'''COACH Z''': Sounds like a plan. ''{turns back to the camera}'' How was tha –

''{Cut to Strong Bad in his car.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Hang on, car phone! Get ready for some fancy driving!

''{Strong Bad makes the sound of a car squealing around corners while the camera moves left to make it seem as if he's moving forwards. One of the Gremlin's hubcaps rolls from the left of the screen. We then cut to the office. Strong Bad opens the door and walks in.}''

'''COACH Z''': What took you so long?

'''STRONG BAD''': Oh, I had to swing by Cool Weapons Surplus for a new nunchaku gun. ''{Holds up a gun with nunchakus taped to it.}'' And a Reesy Cup milkshake. ''{Holds up a milkshake cup with "Reesy Cup" printed on it.}''

'''COACH Z''': Well, anyways, I called you in to meet your new partner: Dangeresque, too?

''{The camera pans right to Homestar Runner, wearing sunglasses.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': The name's Dangeresque. Nice to meet ya.

'''STRONG BAD''': Whaaa?

'''COACH Z''': Dangeresque!

'''STRONG BAD''': Yeah? 
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': What? ''{simultaneously}''

''{They both turn and glare at each other to the accompaniment of a shock riff made by Strong Bad over the top.}''

'''COACH Z''': Perducci's intercepted the serum at the border! ''{He holds up the newspaper from Stunt Double, this time with a taped-on headline reading "PERDUCCI IS THE BAD GUY".}'' If that serum doesn't make it through, they'll kidnap Cutesy Buttons!

'''STRONG BAD & HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{shaking fists}'' Perducci!

''{Cut to Homestar and Strong Bad playing squash in the basement (with Strong Bad's rendition of the Dangeresque theme tune as an accompaniment). Homestar serves the ball and they play a frantic volley, which Strong Bad wins.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{removes sunglasses}'' What is your malfunction?

'''STRONG BAD''': Let's get one thing straight, meatball... face... butt: I work alone. 'Cept when I work with Renaldo... Which is all the time.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Oh yeah? Well, you need me because I'm the only one that knows where Perducci is, and where that is is that he is... in... Istanbul.

'''STRONG BAD''': Istanbul! Of course!

''{Blackout fade to an expanse of meadow in Free Country, USA, with a musical interlude from Strong Bad. Homestar Runner and Strong Bad are standing next to the Cheat, who is wearing a sign saying "Istanbul".}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Perducci's got to be here around in Istanbul somewhere.

'''STRONG BAD''': I hope you're right. We’ve got to get that serum through...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Let's ask this passers-by.

''{Strong Sad walks by, holding a sandwich.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': What do you know about Perducci, doughboy?

'''STRONG SAD''': Ugh, I told you guys already I'm not going to be in your stupid movie!

''{The frame "jumps." Same shot, but now Strong Bad is holding Strong Sad's sandwich.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': What do you know about Perducci?

'''STRONG SAD''': ''{reluctantly}'' Only that I am not one of his minions.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Well, thanks anyways. Move it along, hot tub!

''{Strong Sad walks out.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': That stranger seemed to know a little bit too little about Perducci...

''{With another musical interlude, blackout fade to Strong Sad and the King of Town (who is silhouetted), on top of Bubs' Concession Stand. The King of Town is wearing a bowler hat.}''

'''KING OF TOWN''': What? Two Dangeresques? ''{He turns to the camera, revealing that he is wearing a blue coat, sunglasses and a name-tag reading "hello my name is perducci".}'' Well, they'll still be no match for my secret weapon!

''{Cut to a silhouetted Strong Mad, whose gleaming white eyes are the only visible feature of his body. Strong Bad makes a scary tune over the top, then sings the first two notes of the Dangeresque theme song as we cut to Homestar Runner and Strong Bad standing on top of a large piece of cardboard made up to look like a tall building, holding a horizontal rope. The frame "jumps" again to the same shot, but rotated ninety degrees so that it looks as if the Dangeresques are climbing the building.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Once we've climbed this skyscraper, we'll hopefully be able to throw some people off. Maybe even Perducci.

''{They continue to "climb". As Homestar's glasses fall onto the cardboard, we quickly cut to the top of the Concession Stand, where the Dangeresques meet the King of Town.}''

'''KING OF TOWN''': Dangeresque!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Yeah? 
'''STRONG BAD''': What? ''{simultaneously}''

'''KING OF TOWN''': Allow me to introduce you to both my secret weapon and your doom: Killingyouguy!

''{Strong Mad appears, raising his arms menacingly. The M on his singlet has been replaced with "KILLINGYOUGUY" and two post-its with a bullet hole and a scar drawn on have been stuck to his face. Strong Bad imitates a guitar screech over the top.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Oh. Gad.

'''STRONG BAD''': That guy is tall.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER & STRONG BAD''': You take the big guy.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': The pipes are broken!

''{He leaps off. We cut to Homestar, suspended by a rope, whirling around and kicking Strong Sad repeatedly in the face. Strong Sad has a paper bag with Strong Mad's face, a bullet hole and a scar drawn on it on his head and is wearing his singlet.}''

'''STRONG SAD''': ''{one exclamation on each hit}'' Oof! Ow! Ouff! Ouwh! Getting! Dizzy! Blacking! Out! Oof! Geez! Oouf!

''{We then cut to Strong Bad, Coach Z (silhouetted) and Homestar (looking down on the fallen Strong Mad).}''

'''COACH Z''': Nice work there, Dangeresque!

'''STRONG BAD & HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Thanks. Ahahahaha.

''{Marzipan, as Cutesy Buttons, approaches Coach Z, holding a glass of iced tea, with ice cubes and mint bobbing on the surface.}''

'''MARZIPAN''': Mmm. Thanks for the serum, boys. Now I won't be kidnapped.

'''STRONG BAD''': Oh no...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER & STRONG BAD''': ...looks like we're going to have to jump!

''{They both jump off the Concession Stand and end in a freeze, silhouetted against a sunset. The credits roll while Strong Bad sings.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Today is all right for tonight... 
Riding in a Corvette, feeling all right, 
Today is all right for tonight! 
Today is all right for tonight... 
Riding in a Corvette, feeling all right, 
All right for tonight!

'''Dangeresque – Strong Bad''' 
'''Dangeresque – Homestar Runner''' 
'''Renaldo – Coach Z''' 
'''Perducci – The King of Town''' 
'''Cutesy Buttons – Marzipan''' 
'''Killingyouguy – Himself''' 
'''Passerby(Hot Tub) – El Dumpo''' 
'''Istanbul – The Cheat'''

''''Today is alright 4 2nite' written and performed by Strong Bad'''

''{We cut to pictures of Strong Bad with Strong Sad's sandwich and Strong Sad protesting in the background; The Cheat washing the Gremlin while Strong Bad holds the sandwich; and The Cheat painting Strong Mad black on top of the Concession Stand. Then the screen turns black and both Dangeresques' cool glasses appear on the screen. "The End?" appears underneath them. The song ends and [[The Paper]] comes down.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*Click on Strong Bad's Dangeresque glasses at the end and you can download "[[Today is Alright 4 2Nite]]", a song from the movie made by [[Strong Bad]].

== Fun Facts ==
===Explanations===
*At the end of [[stunt double]], Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective was said to be coming out in June 2004, which is when this e-mail came out. Also, it was supposed to be 'In 3D', which is why the sign says 'not in 3D' at the beginning of this one.
===Trivia===
*Killingyouguy was played by Strong Mad and stunt-doubled by Strong Sad, but is listed in the credits as "Himself".
*Strong Sad, who played Passerby or "Hot Tub" is listed in the credits as El Dumpo.
*This email was originally titled "dangeresque3" (without the space) but was changed within hours to "dangeresque 3".
*The file sbemail106.swf is the biggest email to date, coming in at 1265KB. The only other emails that have come in over 1MB are "[[japanese cartoon]]", at 1131KB; "[[date]]", at 1032KB; and "[[haircut]]", at 1066KB. The large size is mostly due to the 3 frames of TV static (167KB from those 3 frames alone), and the noisy still image (287KB) at the end.

===Inside References===
*The sound effect of "Johnny Well OFF" is the same one used when Strong Sad passed out in [[caffeine]].
*Strong Bad's line "I work alone. 'Cept when I work with Renaldo. Which is all the time" is a line from [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]].
*Dangeresque's door reads (backwards) ''DANGERESQUE Private Eye Crooked Cop'' which is also a throw to the Strong Bad Sings CD.
*The [[The VCR|VCR]] used for the car phone is from [[12:00]] and the [[Character Videos]] page.
*The Newspaper is from [[stunt double]].
**To read the exact text of the newspaper, see trivia in [[stunt double]].
*"I'm gonna have to jump!" is a reference to the [[stunt double]], as is the whole e-mail.
*The Name Tag that The King of Town wears is from [[The Luau]].
*The car is the [[Gremlin]] from [[Homestarloween Party]].
*The Cheat's sign is a reference to [[A Decemberween Pageant]].
*Strong Bad saying "That guy is tall" may be a reference to [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]] where Homestar said, "Alright, this guy is tall."
*The Cheat's "Istanbul" costume is a reference to A Decemberween Pageant where his "[[The Popular Vote|Popular Vote]]" costume looks almost the same.
*Although Strong Bad is such a stickler for grammer(as seen in many of his emails), many times during the movie the caracters use incorrect grammer.

===Real-World References===
*"What is your malfunction?" is a reference to Stanley Kubrick's Vietnam war movie [[imdb:tt0093058|"Full Metal Jacket"]]
*The scene of Dangeresque and Dangeresque too going up the "skyscraper" is a parody of old [[Batman]] TV episodes.
*"The pipes are broken!" is Homestar trying to say "Tatsu Maki Sen Puu Kyaku", a move from Street Fighter usually called the Hurricane Kick in US versions. This is because the characters in Street Fighter II are very hard to understand and sound like they're saying something else.
*The fact that The King of Town was hiding in Istanbul may be a nod to [[They Might Be Giants]], who had a hit in 1990 called "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" and have collaborated with [[The Brothers Chaps|TBC]] on several occasions.
**More likely, it's a nod to countless action and spy movies set in the city.
*Homestar's "shades" are Venetian blinds-style, and may have been inspired by the movie [[imdb:tt0094072|"Summer School"]]
*"Reesy Cup Milkshake" is a reference to the peanut butter/chocolate candy "Reese's Peanut butter cups".
**It may also be a reference to Dairy Queen's "Blizzard" milkshakes, which have a variety of brand-name candies mixed into them.

'''StrongBadEmail #105'''

[[Strong Bad]] looks for a replacement for when he retires.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[The Cheat]], [[Strong Sad]], [[Strong Mad]], [[Bubs]], [[Coach Z]], [[Homestar Runner]], [[Marzipan]], [[Homsar]]

'''Date:''' June 8, 2004

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD''': Our next show is a family show. It... is... the email.

''{reading}''

<pre>Dear Strong Bad,
Have you ever thought who will take
your place when you retire?

Your friend,
Jeffrey Desterhoft</pre>

''{typing}'' You've got a good point there, Jeffy. I suppose I can't keep checking these e-mails forever. I never really thought about finding an heir to my throne before. Come to think of it, what ever happened to my throne? ''{stops typing, picks up a phone, and talks into it, making a sound like a loudspeaker in a supermarket}'' Attention The Cheat. Customer needs assistance in e-mail. Customer needs assistance in e-mail. ''{puts down the phone, which is not attached to anything. The Cheat arrives in a blue employee's vest with his name on it}'' The Cheat, didn't I use to have a throne of some kind?

'''THE CHEAT''': ''{makes questioning Cheat noises and points at the stool}''

'''STRONG BAD''': No, no, no, this is my ''stool''. I'm talking about a ''throne''. You know, it had, like... gold nuggets on it, and... a hundred cupholders... some of them velvety cushions...you know, a ''throne''. And I think I had a motorcycle, too. See if you can find those.

'''THE CHEAT''': Okay.

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{typing}'' I guess the best way to find a replacement is to subject a bunch of applicants to the same rigorous screening process that I subjected myself to ''{begins to sound unsure of what he is saying}'' when I started checking these emails?

''{Cut to the field. Strong Bad and Homestar are there.}''

I'm gonna hold up a last name, and you make fun of it. ''{holds up a cue card with the word "Gargleman" written on it}'' Gargleman.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Crapface.

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{holds up a cue card with the word "Dumweiner" written on it}'' Dumweiner.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Um, crapface.

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{holds up a cue card with the word "Butkus" written on it}'' Butkus.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Crapface.

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{holds up a cue card with the word "Crambert" written on it}'' Crambert.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Crapface?

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{holds up a cue card with the word "Desterhoft" written on it}'' Desterhoft.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{sarcastically}'' Let me think about it, {''without hesitation''} crapface.

'''STRONG BAD''': Whoah! Perfect score!

''{Cut to the computer room. Strong Bad and Coach Z are there.}''

Let's hear your best "deleted". {''presses a button on the keyboard and the Compy displays DELETED on a blue background, making the standard DELETED sound''}

'''COACH Z''': DELORTED!

''{Compy flashes DELORTED with a yellow background and we hear a distorted version of the DELETED sound. Strong Bad is in shock. Cut to the basement with Strong Bad and Bubs and a cardboard box with Strong Sad drawn on it sitting on the couch.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Strong Sad's on the couch, watching TV. What do you do?

'''BUBS''': Kick him in the teeth!

'''STRONG BAD''': That's good, that's good, even though he might not have any teeth. What else?

'''BUBS''': Kick him in the grill!

'''STRONG BAD''': Yeah, yeah! Keep going!

'''BUBS''': Kick ''you'' in the grill! ''{approaches Strong Bad yelling menacingly}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{nervously}'' No, no, Bubs, calm down, this is only a drill!

'''BUBS''': ''{Yelling obscurely}''

''{Cut to Marzipan's house with Strong Bad and Marzipan holding Carol.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Let's see your best "scroll buttons" song.

'''MARZIPAN''': ''{singing}'' And that's why I like to scroll, with scroll buttons!

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{sarcastically}'' Oh, right, right, the worst song I ever heard. Play another one!

'''MARZIPAN''': ''{singing}'' Scroll buttons are good, they move you up and down...

''{Strong Bad groans. Cut to the basement, with Strong Bad, Strong Sad, and the same cardboard box with Strong Sad on it.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Okay, Strong Sad, Strong Sad's on the couch, watching TV. What do you do?

'''STRONG SAD''': Go make him some hummus.

'''STRONG BAD''': Hummus?! No, try something else.

'''STRONG SAD''': Uh... give him a foot massage.

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{looks at Strong Sad's feet}'' Those are not feet!

''{Cut to the field with Homestar, Strong Bad, and a cardboard box with The Cheat drawn on. Underneath the box, you can see the feet of the real The Cheat.}''

Now I want you to pretend this is The Cheat, and give him a good, swift, kick in The Cheat!

''{Homestar bends one of his legs back, and then pauses.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Umm... crapface.

''{Cut to Strong Bad in front of his computer}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Ugh. {''typing''} This screening process is neither processing nor screening very well. I suppose I should cut to the chase and haul out the big guns...DANCE CONTEST!

{''Cut to a stage. Music is playing. We see the top part of Strong Bad's head watching each contestant. First up is Marzipan, who spins her ponytail around while moving her head left and right. Next is Coach Z, who taps his right foot while waving his arms. Then we see Strong Sad simply twitching his fingers, Bubs shaking his arms while jumping up and down, Strong Mad just standing there, not dancing, simply yelling:''}

'''STRONG MAD''': I'M STRONG MAD! I'M STRONG MAD!!!

''{...Homsar shuffling his feet all along the stage, and finally Homestar, lit by a spotlight. The music changes to what sounds like the tune of "Strangers in the night"}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{singing}'' And then I put it on my faaaaace...

''{Cut to Strong Bad at his computer}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{typing}'' Uh, this dance contest is neither contesting nor dancing very well. Looks like I'm gonna be checking e-mails and kicking Cheats 'til the day I die. ''{stops typing}'' Whoa, that'd make an awesome tattoo! Or an even better epitaph!

''{cut to the field at night. We hear crickets chirping, we see a crescent moon. A blank tombstone is on the foreground and as we hear Strong Bad's voice, his words are carved on the slab}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voice-over}'' Here lies Strong Bad ''{underneath, in slightly smaller letters}'' "Checking e-mails and kicking Cheats in the hereafter" ''{underneath}'' Buried with his hundred girlfriends ''{underneath}'' And like, a jillion dollars ''{underneath, in even smaller letters}'' Please don't dig up the grave.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*At the end, click on "Cheats":
=== Transcript ===
''{Cut to The Cheat near his lightswitch, still wearing his uniform.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{offscreen, into speakerphone}'' A-ttention The Cheat!

'''THE CHEAT:''' Meh!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Have you found that motorcycle yet? ''{slight pause}'' Maybe check in our... stock room.

'''THE CHEAT:''' Okay.

'''STRONG BAD:''' And Dana needs more quarters on register three.

== Fun Facts ==
===Remarks===
*The phone's cord isn't connected to anything, but it still seems to work.
*This is yet another incidence where the "The Cheat rule" has been broken. [[Strong Bad]] says he will be "kicking Cheats in the hereafter." No "The" is found before "Cheat."
*When Marzipan is playing [[Carol]], nothing ''appears'' to be in the picture above the couch, but it still is the same "Thank You" sign from [[Where's The Cheat?]] and [[Strong Bad Is In Jail Cartoon]]. That picture has an inordinate amount of empty space above and below "Thank you" and we're just seeing a lot of that.
*The last name Strong Bad told Homestar to make fun of was Desterhoft, the last name of the e-mail's writer.

===Inside References===
*Homestar's repeated use of "crapface" is related to the way he answered his first SB Email in [[50 emails]].
*Strong Bad uses the term "jillion" again at the end of this e-mail. (first used in [[car]])
*Strong Bad uses the term "gold nuggets" which refers to Strong Bad's [[Characters|character]] video.
*Strong Mad says "I AM STRONG MAD," which could be referencing [[A Jumping Jack Contest]], where Strong Mad poses as Strong Bad and says a similar line.
*Bubs' moves in the dance contest come from the game [[Dancin' Bubs]].

===Real-World References===
*The Cheat is wearing a blue uniform, typical of [http://www.walmart.com/ Wal-Mart] employees, but Strong Bad uses a red phone, typical of [http://www.target.com/ Target] stores.
*One of the make-funnable last names was "Butkus," of Chicago Bears legend Dick Butkus.

theme park

207.30.19.219 — Thu, 10 Mar 2005 23:50:22 GMT

207.30.19.219: /* Remarks */

[[Image:themepark.png|thumb|[[Strong Bad's Mount RidesPlace USA]]!]]

'''StrongBadEmail #104'''

[[Strong Bad]] fields an email about his theme park, called [[Strong Bad's Mount RidesPlace USA]]!

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[Cheerleader]] (Easter Egg), [[The Ugly One]] (Easter Egg), [[Monkey D]] (Easter Egg), [[The King of Town]], [[The Cheat]], [[Strong Sad]], [[Strong Mad]], [[Bubs]], [[Pom Pom]], [[Coach Z]] ''(as [[Stoppy the Sign]])'', [[Homestar Runner]] ''(as himself and [[Poppy the Tire]])'', [[Homsar]] ''(as [[General Tso's Chicken]])''

'''Date:''' May 25, 2004

== Transcript ==

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Everybody love this, everybody needs this, it's time for funny stuff. ''{reading, in a Teen Girl Squad voice}'' Dear strong bad, you are the coolest... ''{stops reading, clears throat}'' Oh! Excuse me.

''{reading}''

<pre>Dear strong bad,
you are the coolest, any way onto
buisness. i think that you should
make your own theme park.

crapfully crap,
Rafael FL.</pre>

''{Strong Bad pronounces "buisness" just as it's spelled, says "(sigh) Sincerely yours" instead of "crapfully crap," and "football league" instead of "FL"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Well, Rafi, being the distinguished buisnessman ''{continues with the misspelling/pronunciation used earlier}'' that I am, I've had a theme park in development for quite some time now. Almost as long as I've been growin' this mustache.

''{A 10,000x magnification of Strong Bad's upper lip appears, showing a growth of one hair.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Anyways, it'd be called

''{cut to view of a theme park by the Stop Sign and Cinder Block}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Strong Bad's Mount RIDESPLACE! USA

''{As this is said, the appropriate words flash on the screen above the view of the theme park.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And it will have more rides than you or your grandmother can handle.

''{As this is said, the words "More Rides Than You Or Your Grandmother Can Handle!*" appear along with a "*please do not bring your grandmother" disclaimer on the bottom.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Of course, our flagship rollercoaster would be

''{cut to view of the rollercoaster, which is perfectly circular and spins continually without stopping}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Bowels of Trogdor!! ''{pan out to see that The King of Town is riding the rollercoaster and screaming}'' Which would like whip you around and around until you either throw up or catch fire somehow. ''{The King of Town catches fire somehow}''

''{Cut to Strong Bad and The Cheat and the entrance to the ride. A Trogdor sign is there that says "Peasants must be as tall as my beefy arm to ride this ride." The Cheat is clearly not tall enough.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Sorry little guy, I can't do nothing for you. ''{The Cheat puts on a top hat}'' Maybe you better head over to Sweet Cuppin' Cakes Land instead.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{Makes a thoroughly disappointed noise}''

''{cut to Strong Sad standing on a stage}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And every hour, at the main stage, there'd be a performance of The Strong Sad Gets Decked Repeatedly Stunt Spook-tacular.

''{A banner lowers behind Strong Sad that says "The Strong Sad Gets Decked Repeatedly Stunt SPOOK-tacular!!" Strong Sad is wearing a witch's hat. Strong Mad comes from stage right to flying tackle Strong sad.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' MAUHHH!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh!

''{Strong Sad climbs back up on the stage. Strong Mad comes from stage left this time to flying tackle Strong Sad again.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' MAUHHH!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh!

''{cut to Strong Bad behind a table with a layout of the theme park on it}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' To make sure you don't have any money left when you leave, ''{the words "not to scale" appear with an arrow pointing at the layout}'' there'd be more games than you or your grandFATHER could handle.

''{cut to Bubs working the "Throw Game"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' You know, the ones where you throw hoops or rings or baseballs at different stuff and try to win cheap generic stuffed animal versions of ten-year-old cartoons.

''{During this voice over, Pom Pom plays the "Throw Game" while Bubs looks on. Pom Pom successfully gets all three rings that he tosses around the "xtra cold one" bottle. Strong Bad's arm appears, holding up a cheap stuffed animal}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Like this Bubs with a horn.

'''BUBS:''' No, no, no. You gotta get those rings ''inside'' the bottle.

'''POM POM:''' ''{makes bubble noises}''

''{Pom Pom picks up a baseball and throws it at the bottle in frustration. Cut back to Strong Bad behind the layout of the park}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' No theme park would be complete without a bunch of costumed mascots running around antic-ing... ''{scratches head}'' antique-ing... whatever.

''{Cut to view of an area behind some fencing. The King of Town still rides "The Bowels of Trogdor!!" in the distance.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' You know, there'd be one of the Stop Sign,

''{Coach Z appears wearing a costume that has a cartoonish looking Stop Sign design}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' call him "Stoppy, Stoppy the sign" and then there'd be the tire...

''{Homestar appears wearing a costume that has a very cartoonish looking Tire design}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' call him "Poppy the tire"... And who could forget "General Tso's Chicken"

''{A carton of what could only be General Tso's Chicken falls from the sky. It has "Ryan S." written on the side. Homsar's feet appear beneath it.}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' Hey, Stoppy, is your suit chafing you like crazy?

'''COACH Z:''' Well, to tell ya da truth dere Poppy, I've always enjoyed a good chafe.

'''HOMSAR:''' AaAaAaAaA! It's time for tasteball.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Oh crap! It's tasteball already?

''{cut to Strong Bad back at the compy}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But yeah, it's a pretty unrealistic vision. I'm gonna have to start robbing WAY more hot actresses if I ever hope to make that dream a reality. But for now, I'll settle for giving tours on The Strong Badian Riverquest Safariventure.

''{He gets up. Cut to Strong Bad standing in a box in Strongbadia. He holds some sort of microphone.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Strong Bad makes a microphone click noise and speaks in a theme-park tour-guide-styled monotone voice}'' Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen my name is Strong Bad and welcome to The Strong Badian Riverquest Safariventure. ''{Strong Bad makes a click noise again}''

''{Cut to wide view of Strong Bad standing in a box labeled "riverquest safariventure". Homestar sits in front of him in the box. To the left is a running hose. The water from the hose forms a puddle around the box.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{click}'' Please keep your arms legs and valuables inside the vehicle at all times and get ready to experience the fury of The Strong Badian Riverboat Superfun... ride. ''{click}''

''{[[The Paper]] comes down. About 5 seconds later, the zooms in on Strong Bad and Homestar and the tour continues}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{click}'' And first up on our tour if you look to your right ''{Homestar looks to his right}'' experience the fury of ''{cut to wider view}'' a big rock that is going to fall on uuuus. ''{An obviously fake rock pops up behind the fence, mounted on a stick.}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' Ooooh. ''{The rock goes back down behind the fence.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That was a close call, I hope everyone is okaaaay.

'''HOMESTAR:''' I'm not ok--

'''STRONG BAD:''' Shut up. ''{click}''

''{cut to closeup of Strong Bad}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{click}'' And if you look up the river here comes another one of our tour guides his name is The Cheat ''{Cut to wide view again. The Cheat walks by in his own box, which is labeled "R.Q. 2".}'' everybody say "Hi, The Cheeeeat."

'''HOMESTAR:''' Hide and seek.

''{Some drum sounds can be heard}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{click}'' Oh what's that I hear is it the sound of island drums? Oh no it's headhunteeerrrs. ''{The cardboard cutout of a bear holding a shark, posing as a "headhunter," pops up from behind the fence.}'' ''{click}'' Everyone stay in the boat, I'll take care of thiiis. ''{click}''

''{Strong Bad pulls out a revolver, and turns his head away as he fires up into the air twice. The cutout goes back down behind the fence.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{click}'' Looks like we scared those headhunters. Let's hope they don't come baaack. ''{click}''

''{cut to closeup of Strong Bad again}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{click}'' Well folks we've made it back safely did everyone have a good time?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Not really.

''{Strong Bad continues to talk while Homestar answers.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Goooood. Please leave your valuables under your seat and exit to your riiiight. ''{click}''

''{cut to wide view again}''

'''HOMESTAR:''' Strong Bad, I gotta level with ya. That might have been the worst three thousand dollars I ever spent.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down again. After another pause, Strong Bad speaks again}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{click}'' Don't forget to experience the fury of our gift shooop. ''{click}''

* Click on "buisness" after Strong Bad says it in the first part of the email to see a picture of The Ugly One and Cheerleader.
** Cheerleader looks angry and is wearing a dress that says, "kiss boys". She has a speech bubble that reads, "the ugly one, why you always gotta be all up in my bweez-NASS?" The Ugly One looks sad.

* Click on "Rafi" to see a mock NFL patch.

* Click on "Mount" in "Mount Ridesplace USA" after Strong Bad says "USA" to see [[Monkey D]]'s season pass.

* Click on the next to last Bubs doll on the lower row, left side in the "Throw Game" stand to see a real Bubs plushie thingie.

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
*The paper on Strong Bad's desk is labeled "plans for stuff".
*This is the first time we hear Homsar talking without his hat hovering over him.
*The box in the throw game appears to be labeled "BOX FOR THROW GAME", in all capital letters.
===Remarks===
*Strong Bad grows the moustache hair through his mask.
*Roller coasters don't usually have circular loops on them like the Bowels of Trogdor, because the G-forces involved, indeed, usually cause people to pass out. No one usually catches fire, though.
*Strong Bad pushes his thumb far out of his boxing glove when he sends the Cheat to Sweet Cuppin' Cakes land. This wouldn't usually be possible with a real boxing glove.

===Goofs===
*When Pom Pom hits the bottle with the ball, a crashing sound is heard yet it doesn't break.
*At the end of the SBRQSV, look for the [[Stop Sign|stop sign]]. It's not there! It disappeared when The Cheat rode by in the "R.Q. 2".

===Glitches===
*When the SBRQSV is over, the water stops flowing from the hose.
===Inside References===
*The "headhunter" is the bear holding a shark cardboard figure from [[date]].
*Pom Pom throws rings around an "Xtra Cold One", first seen in [[Cheat Commandos Commercial]].
*The music played during Strong Sad's "Stunt Spooktacular" is the same music that was used in [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].

===Real-World References===
*The Strong Badian Riverquest Safariventure is a parody of [http://disneyland.disney.go.com/disneyland/en_US/parks/attractions/detail?name=JungleCruiseAttractionPage Disneyland's Jungle Cruise] ride.
*The "Ryan S." on the box of General Tso's chicken may be a reference to Ryan S. (Ryan Shoulders) from the TV show [http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor7/survivors/bio/ryans.shtml Survivor: Pearl Islands] (airing in late 2003). In episode 2, Ryan S. goes to pick up a message (aka "treemail" on the show). While picking it up, he says, "The treemail, the treemail, wha wha the treemail," a play on the opening to [[techno]].
**More likely, however, "Ryan S." is a reference to [[Ryan Sterritt]], a friend of the Brothers Chaps who has helped with the website in the past.
*Strong Bad's reading of the name as 'Rafi' might be an obscure reference to a Canadian children's entertainer, [http://www.raffinews.com/ Raffi].
*When Strong Bad shoots the [[Bear-Shark | bear and shark]], it might be a reference to either Disney World's Jungle Cruise or Universal Studios "Jaws the Ride."
*The Bowels of Trogdor might be a reference to the now obsolete ride, Fireball, at Morey's Piers in Wildwood, NJ.
*When Strong Bad is talking to Homestar during the quest part of the SBRQSV, he does not breathe or show any expression, imitating the tour guides at Disneyworld/land.

'''StrongBadEmail #100'''

The long-anticipated 100th Email, where Jon from NH asks Strong Bad how long he has known Homestar Runner. It ends up as a big spoof on the original Homestar children's book, in WIDESCREEEEEEEEEEEEN!

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[Homestar Runner]], [[Coach Z]], [[Prince of Town]], [[Strong Mad]], [[Pom Pom]], [[Bubs]], [[Strong Sad]], [[Marzipan]], [[Mr. Bland]], [[Señor]], [[The Cheat]], [[Limozeen]] (easter egg), [[Senor Cardgage]] (easter egg), [[The Strong Bad]] (easter egg)

'''Date:''' March 16, 2004

'''Running Time:''' 5:00

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD''': ONE TWO THREE FOUR ''{starts singing hard rock with instruments in the background}'' EMAIL IS AWESOME, EMAIL IS WEIRD, EMAIL IS AWESOME AND EMAIL IS WEIRD! And I'll never forget the way it was, GRRRL!

''{Starts reading. However, the text is in the style of Tandy, and it is in fact the very first e-mail he's ever done.}''

<pre>Dear Strong Bad,

Do you take your wrestling mask and boxing
gloves off before you go to bed?

Sincerely,
Abdi LaRue
San Diego, CA</pre>

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{Stops reading about halfway through}'' dajede...wait a minute! ''{hits Compy, the text fixes itself to be a new email}'' There we go!

''{reading}''

<pre>Hey there, Strong Bad!
I was wondering. How long have you
known Homestar? Is there some sort of
flashback that could describe how
and when you guys met?
Your Fan,
Jon, NH</pre>

''{Instead of "New Hampshire," Strong Bad says "No Hamsters"}''

''{typing}'' Oh, I got flashbacks alright, Jon. I'm like, Discount Flashback Warehouse over here. But this particular flashback has way too much historical significance to be shown in anything but WIDESCREEEEEEEEEEEEN. Left side: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAH! ''{As he says this with a resonating noise, the left side of the screen expands out. His next one he doesn't type.}'' Right side: WOOOOOAHH--''{the right side of the screen expands out to show Homestar standing there}'' wha-uh, what are you doin' over there?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Oh, I'm pretty much here every week. It's just that usually I'm behind the black.

'''STRONG BAD''': I guess I should start... lookin' to the right more often.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': In fact, I think I might live here.

'''STRONG BAD''': I don't think so. If you lived here, you'd have less non-broken bones. And more crushed spirits.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{looking dejected}'' Yes sir.

'''STRONG BAD''': Frame shift left! WOOOOOAAHHH! ''{the screen starts shifting left to get Homestar out of the shot}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': See ya after the flashback!

''{We go to a picture of Strong Bad on the moon with a tennis racket. The drawing is in the style of the original children's book and we see that it's just a parody of that style. Although, the characters are still somewhat animated. Strong Bad doesn't read every little piece of text, so the text that's there that he doesn't read will be included in a parenthetical when it occurs}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Strong Bad meets the Homestar Runner.

''{turns the page to a picture of just Strong Bad}''

Everyone loves Strong Bad. He is an okay guy.

''(turns the page to a picture of Strong Bad and Coach Z playing tennis on the moon}''

One day Strong Bad was finishing up a game of tennis on the moon with his pal, the Coach Z. He won 1,000,000 to 3. "You see, 3 is clearly a smaller number than a million," said Strong Bad. "Ooooooh. Now I understand."

''{turn the page to them flying down a rainbow from the moon to earth}''

They flew on a sweet, sweet rainbow bridge back down to Free Country USA.

''{turn the page to Coach Z holding a towel and talking to Strong Bad}''

"I'ma go shower up!" said the Coach Z. "Gross!" said Strong Bad. "Shut up!"

''{turn the page to see Strong Bad walking toward a giant pink egg with yellow spots}''

Walking home, Strong Bad came upon a big ol' egg. "Waaaaaaaaagh!"

''{turn the page to a closer view of Strong Bad and the egg}''

"I wonder what's inside," thought tiny-handed Strong Bad.

''{turn the page to see Homestar behind the egg wearing a yellow shirt with a duck on it}''

"Hello! How do you like my egg, Mr. Strong Bad?" said a voice from behind. "Who the crap are you, Duckshirt?" asked No-shirt. "I'm The Homestar Runner!" said the duckshirt. "Some folk say I'm a terrific athlete."

''{turn the page to a closer view of the scene}''

"Well I folk say you're a terrific liar!" ''{said Strong Bad.}'' "This is plainly my egg. ''{in a King of Town voice}'' "What's all the commotion about?"

''{turn the page to zoom out to see the Prince of Town looking at Strong Bad and Homestar}''

...said the svelt, young Prince of Town. "And who's this weirdo in the duckie shirt?" "I'm The Homestar Runner! Some folk say I'm a terrific ''{athelete!" said Duckshirt.}'' "Prancibald over here says this egg belongs to him, when I found it first."

''{turn the page to a closeup of the Prince of Town}''

"We'll settle this with a ten-step footrace."

''{turn the page to see a bunch of the gang, including some characters from the original children's book, watching Strong Bad and Homestar at the start line of a race}''

And so they all gathered for a ten-step footrace. The slim and trim young Prince of Town explained the rules. ''{a piece of paper shows up reading: "Ten-step Footrace Official Rules. Rule One. Whoever goes the most distance in ten steps, will be the winner! Rule Two. No biting."}'' "Whoever goes the most distance in ten steps, will be the winner!"

''{turn the page to see Strong Bad and Homestar at the line and Marzipan giving the startoff.}''

"Ready-and-set-and-go-now." ''{they start running, with Homestar counting}'' "One, two, three, four, five, six..." ''{Strong Bad has tiny steps and is way behind}'' "Keep up the pace. Gotta break 4:40"

''{turn the page to see silhouettes of everyone, and Homestar has reached the end}''

"Ten!" "And the Duckie-man is the winner. Loser gets the egg."

''{turn the page to see Homestar up front and Strong Bad in the distance with the egg}''

"WHAAAAT??!!?&,:;%${}" "Hooray a-for me!!"

''{turn the page to see Strong Mad holding the egg over his head while Strong Bad watches}''

And so Strong Mad helped to break open the egg. ''{Strong Mad tosses the egg}''

''{turn the page to see the egg broke and a bunch of fishsticks pour out}''

And out poured a lifetime supply of fishsticks. And a The Cheat!!!!

''{The Cheat springs out of the egg, turn the page to give him his very own page. Turn the page again to see Strong Bad and the Cheat with the egg in the background.}''

"Awesome! My very own a The Cheat!"

''{turn the page to see everyone hanging out by a boombox}''

And so, The Cheat mashed play on an extremely expensive jambox with high-speed dubbing and everybody put their weight on it! ''{The Cheat plays music which happens to be a remix of the original intro music for H*R.com, and everyone dances)''

''{cut back to Strong Bad sitting at the stool, talking to Homestar, who's sitting on the ground listening to the tale}''

So that's pretty much how it all went down, huh?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Oh yes. Read me another one! Another one!

'''STRONG BAD''': Ohhhhh, very well. This one's called The Homestar Runner Gets Something Stuck In His Craw ''{Strong Bad pulls out a children's book of the same name. Compy beeps and turns blue with the caption "Congratulations! You have answered 100 emails." and ascii fireworks.}'' What the--whoah! Would ya look at that! 100 emails. I had no idea! I lost count around 51. Well, I suppose I should do something to celebrate...ooh! I'll say email 100 times!

''{proceeds to say email 100 times, [[The Paper]] comes down}''

Oo. I'm pa-I'm parched. ''{wheezes}'' I need a glass of water. ''{the screen creates a glass of water onscreen}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*When Strong Bad pulls out the book "The Homestar Runner Gets Something Stuck In His Craw," you can click on it to get a closer look.
*After Strong Bad says "Email" 100 times, you can click on the words:
**"Congratulations!" for a message from [[Limozeen]]
::'''LIMOZEEN:''' Congratulations Strong Bad on your 100th email!
::''{slight pause}''
::'''LARRY:''' WE'RE FROM THE BAND LIMOZEEN!
::'''GARY:''' Uh, I think it says that at the top of the screen, Larry.
::'''LARRY:''' WELL '''''I''''' DIDN'T KNOW THAT!
::''{The band members strike various poses and the frame freezes, as the central riff from "Because It's Midnite" plays}''
*** Direct link to Limozeen's greeting [http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail100_zeen.swf here].
**"you" to see Homestar deliver his message
::''{Homestar is standing in the field, wearing the Duckie Shirt}''
::'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Happy hundredth birthday, Strong Bad!
**"have" to see a funny message from Marzipan
::''{Marzipan is standing in her house near her answering machine}''
::'''MARZIPAN:''' Whoo-hoo, Strong Bad, whoo-hoo. I've almost caught up with you. I only have 90 more answering machines to go.
**"answered" to see Senor Cardgage say some stuff
::''{Senor Cardgage is standing in The Field near his bush}''
::'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' Many Combolations, Elizagerth! ''{holds up a sign reading "combolations, elizagerth, and puts it back down, then produces a melty candybar from behind his back}'' I hope you get all my... particles.
::'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{off screen}'' Man, so cool!
**"100" to see The Strong Bad making a telegram. His "doppelgänger" or "copy" is present-day Strong Bad.
::''{The Strong Bad is standing next to a telegraph machine. Half of his moustache has been ripped off, and he is holding a envelope that looks like it contains the missing half of the moustache}''
::'''THE STRONG BAD:''' ''{operating the telegraph}'' Well done, my doppelgänger! Stop! By the time you read this telegrammaparcel, I'll be long dead! Stop! Therefore, I've enclosed half of my moustache therein. Stop! I bid you good tidings, and may you continue to flummox those less fortunate than you!
*Also, clicking in the 2 areas where the fireworks go off will bring you to two other shorts.
**The firework on the left takes you to a TV ad for [[Discount Flashback Warehouse]].
::''{cut to Strong Bad's basement with the Television. Strong Bad's face appears on it}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' Come on down to Discount Flashback Warehouse.
::''{Discout Flashback Warehouse text appears, then disappears. Camera pans back so we can see Strong Bad's body}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' I've got this season. ''{gestures to the left, where a screen from "different town" appears}'' Last season. ''{gestures to the right where a screen from "band names" appears}'' Even stuff I've just made up! ''{The screenshots disappear and "just made up!!" appears as he says it}''
::''{Cuts to just his head again, next to text reading "These prices: $9 $6.53"}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' How can I make these prices any lower?
::''{cuts to Strong Bad standing beneath yellow text that reads "Discount Flashback Warehouse"}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' Just ask for me, the guy that works here ''{very quietly, trailing off}'' at the flashback place.
**The firework on the right shows you what became of the lifetime supply of fishsticks.
::''{cut to the field back in the flashback. The Prince of Town is standing near the broken-open egg}''
::'''THE PRINCE OF TOWN:''' Will no one claim this lifetime supply of fishsticks?
::''{Prince of Town proceeds to dance without any music in the background}''
*Notice the URL is "sbemailahundred.html". If you manually type "sbemail100.html", you'll get a short message from Strong Bad and Homestar with the "The page cannot be displayed" background. You could view this page before the real 100th email was published.
::''{The page starts out empty, there is a howling wind sound. After a couple seconds, Strong Bad walks in from the left.}''
::'''STRONG BAD''': ''{pointing and shaking}'' Oh, I suppose you think your pretty clever, huh? Thought you'd find something you weren't supposed to see yet. Well, It's not gonna--
::''{Homestar Runner walks in from the right.}''
::'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Hey, is this where the 100th e-mail is? ''{Looks around quickly.}''
::'''STRONG BAD''': No! Get out of here!
::'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': When are you gonna do one already??
::'''STRONG BAD''': 'K, just keep your pants on!
::'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Pants? ''{He looks up with his eyes closed, thinking.} Hmmm...''
::'''STRONG BAD''': Yeah, chew on that one for a while. ''{Begins walking off.}'' Teach ya to poke around in my HTML.
::''{After Strong Bad exits, the fake "This is real." alert window paper from [[50 emails]] gets posted onto the screen, reading "System Report: Keep your pants on. For real."}''

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
*The DVD commentary for this episode reveals several interesting facts - originally, it would have been animated in the normal style, and would have told a different story, until the Brothers Chaps decided to re-write it halfway through. Originally, story elements included Strong Bad wearing a star shirt, and Marzipan attempting to do something about Homestar's awful fashion sense (his [[Ducks | duckie]] shirt, and also in this version, a pair of sandals). She gets him a star shirt, and Strong Bad rips his own shirt off in protest, which is why nowadays, Strong Bad never wears a shirt.
*The email was assigned the URL of "http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemailahundred.html," breaking the convention of the previous ninety-nine. This was done because of [[Not the 100th Email!!!]].
*Strong Bad ''actually'' says the word "E-mail" exactly 100 times.
**The Paper comes down during “e-mails” #28 through #30
**For #49 he distinctly says “e-MAIL-a”
**For #67 he quickly says “e-mail-mail-nahduhluh”
**For #72 he says “e-meh-meh-meh-meh-mail”
**"E-mails" #91 and #92 blend together so much that it sounds like “email--mail,” but if it was just one “e-mail” then there would only be 99, so it’s been accepted to be 2 separate “e-mails”
*This is the first time a character has mentioned [[Free Country, USA]].
*To date this has the most easter eggs in a toon at a huge eight.

===Remarks===
*It is debatable whether the story in the book really "happened", since Strong Bad could be making it up. Homestar verifies the tale, but this may just be typical, dense Homestar behavior.
*More proof that Strong Bad's boxing gloves are his hands; the small boxing gloves are referred to as his tiny hands.
*Strong Bad couldn't have lost count at email 51 because in email 91 the intro is "Coming in at number 91, its, EMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIL". However it's possible that he could have said number 91 by coincidence.
*During the ten-step footrace, Strong Bad made more than ten steps, although that wouldn't have affected the result of the race, for he would have lost/won the egg anyway.
*When The Cheat jumps out of the egg Strong Bad says "Awesome! My very own a the Cheat!" but the text says "My very own the cheat!"
*When the Compy said Strong Bad had answered 100 e-mails, that's not entirely true. He answered 2 in [[50 emails]], 2 more in [[2 emails]], and you could say he answered more than one in [[huttah!]] (although he didn't answer any in [[anything]] or [[mile]]). Depending on your definition of "answering" an email, he read extras in [[spring cleaning]] (although they were promptly deleted). If you count by each toon being an e-mail, then he still answered in excess of 103 e-mails, since the 3 bonus e-mails on the DVD are presumably pre-100th. So really, at the time of the hundredth e-mail, Strong Bad actually has answered more than 100 e-mails.
*Though the style of the artwork and the voice acting for most of the characters resembled closely that of the classic Homestar cartoons, Strong Bad, for some reason, sounds nothing like the real "old-school" Strong Bad in the flashback. Old Strong Bad's manner of speaking was very loud and dramatic (almost overacted), and he had a strong Mexican accent. The Strong Bad in the flashback is just the opposite, speaking in a monotonal, mumbling fashion.

===Glitches===
*While the Limozeen video is up, the links beneath it are still clickable.
===Inside References===
*Present in the flashback are [[Mr. Bland]] and [[Señor]], who haven't been seen since [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (toon)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]].
*Strong Bad first uses "grrl" (seen here as grrrl) in [[i she be]]. The word is also used in the [[Teen Girl Squad|Teen Girl Squad Mainpage]] and [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].
*At the very beginning of the toon, the e-mail that Strong Bad starts to read (with the old [[Tandy 400]]-style text) before hitting the screen is the e-mail from [[some kinda robot]], the first-ever [[Strong Bad Email]].
*When he reads the Tandy e-mail, his accent is more like it is in the old cartoons (most notably, he pronounces "you" as "joo" a few times).
*Old style Marzipan, Strong Sad and Strong Mad refer to the concept sketches.
*Old style Coach Z and Bubs refer to "[[Where My Hat is At?]]"
*The Cheat mashing play on a [[Ghetto Blastro | jambox]] also happened in "[[Everybody Knows It]]".
*When Strong Bad gasps at the end of the e-mail, it is the same sound effect of the Dry Meal in [[20X6 vs. 1936]].
*The TV from the Discount Flashback Warehouse egg is from an old H*R.com main menu.
*The two e-mails in the Discount Flashback Warehouse egg are [[different town]] and [[band names]].
*When Senor Cardgage/Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad says "Many [[Combolations | combolations]], Elizagerth", it's a reference to the credits in [[japanese cartoon]].
*The Old-Timey Strong Bad has a sign in his telegram room that states Loafing Not Permitted, a reference to the [[No Loafing Sign|No Loafing sign]]. This also appears in #50, [[50 emails]].
*The Strong Bad appearing with half a mustache was inspired by a waiter [[The Brothers Chaps]] once encountered who sported the same odd facial hair style.
*Strong Bad is heard saying "Man, so cool" in the Senor Cardgage easter egg. He said the same thing in the email "[[kind of cool]]".
*The Cheat's page in the [[Yearbook Character Page]] mentiones that his origins are uncertain. This seems to contradict the events in this email.

=== Real-World References ===
*The widescreen is a perfect 1.85:1 aspect ratio.
*The guitar the guy is holding in the Limozeen egg is the same guitar that Homestar Runner steals in [[Puppet Time]], a Hamer "Bat" spin-off of the more popular Gibson Explorer shape. The bass the other guy is holding is a Fender Jazz-Bass.
*The melty candy bar Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad/Senor Cardgage holds up near the end appears to be a Zagnut bar, which was also seen in [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].

== DVD Version ==
*The Limozeen video is now in fullscreen and much higher quality.
**As well, you can use your DVD player's Angle Button while watching the Limozeen clip to change the clip's background image. There are three separate backgrounds in all.
* Due to it being widescreen, the characters in this email look a little stretched out from top to bottom, unless you are watching it on a widescreen TV. Computer monitors seem to have this problem as well.
*The DVD version features hidden creator's commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

"Hello! How do you like my egg, Mr. Strong Bad?" said a voice from behind. "Who the crap are you, Duckshirt?" asked No-shirt. "I'm The Homestar Runner!" said the duckshirt. "Some folk say I'm a terrific athlete."

''{turn the page to a closer view of the scene}''

"Well I folk say you're a terrific liar!" ''{said Strong Bad.}'' "This is plainly my egg. ''{in a King of Town voice}'' "What's all the commotion about?"

''{turn the page to zoom out to see the Prince of Town looking at Strong Bad and Homestar}''

...said the svelt, young Prince of Town. "And who's this weirdo in the duckie shirt?" "I'm The Homestar Runner! Some folk say I'm a terrific ''{athelete!" said Duckshirt.}'' "Prancibald over here says this egg belongs to him, when I found it first."

''{turn the page to a closeup of the Prince of Town}''

"We'll settle this with a ten-step footrace."

''{turn the page to see a bunch of the gang, including some characters from the original children's book, watching Strong Bad and Homestar at the start line of a race}''

And so they all gathered for a ten-step footrace. The slim and trim young Prince of Town explained the rules. ''{a piece of paper shows up reading: "Ten-step Footrace Official Rules. Rule One. Whoever goes the most distance in ten steps, will be the winner! Rule Two. No biting."}'' "Whoever goes the most distance in ten steps, will be the winner!"

''{turn the page to see Strong Bad and Homestar at the line and Marzipan giving the startoff.}''

"Ready-and-set-and-go-now." ''{they start running, with Homestar counting}'' "One, two, three, four, five, six..." ''{Strong Bad has tiny steps and is way behind}'' "Keep up the pace. Gotta break 4:40"

''{turn the page to see silhouettes of everyone, and Homestar has reached the end}''

"Ten!" "And the Duckie-man is the winner. Loser gets the egg."

''{turn the page to see Homestar up front and Strong Bad in the distance with the egg}''

"WHAAAAT??!!?&,:;%${}" "Hooray a-for me!!"

''{turn the page to see Strong Mad holding the egg over his head while Strong Bad watches}''

And so Strong Mad helped to break open the egg. ''{Strong Mad tosses the egg}''

''{turn the page to see the egg broke and a bunch of fishsticks pour out}''

And out poured a lifetime supply of fishsticks. And a The Cheat!!!!

''{The Cheat springs out of the egg, turn the page to give him his very own page. Turn the page again to see Strong Bad and the Cheat with the egg in the background.}''

"Awesome! My very own a The Cheat!"

''{turn the page to see everyone hanging out by a boombox}''

And so, The Cheat mashed play on an extremely expensive jambox with high-speed dubbing and everybody put their weight on it! ''{The Cheat plays music which happens to be a remix of the original intro music for H*R.com, and everyone dances)''

''{cut back to Strong Bad sitting at the stool, talking to Homestar, who's sitting on the ground listening to the tale}''

So that's pretty much how it all went down, huh?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Oh yes. Read me another one! Another one!

'''STRONG BAD''': Ohhhhh, very well. This one's called The Homestar Runner Gets Something Stuck In His Craw ''{Strong Bad pulls out a children's book of the same name. Compy beeps and turns blue with the caption "Congratulations! You have answered 100 emails." and ascii fireworks.}'' What the--whoah! Would ya look at that! 100 emails. I had no idea! I lost count around 51. Well, I suppose I should do something to celebrate...ooh! I'll say email 100 times!

''{proceeds to say email 100 times, [[The Paper]] comes down}''

Oo. I'm pa-I'm parched. ''{wheezes}'' I need a glass of water. ''{the screen creates a glass of water onscreen}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*When Strong Bad pulls out the book "The Homestar Runner Gets Something Stuck In His Craw," you can click on it to get a closer look.
*After Strong Bad says "Email" 100 times, you can click on the words:
**"Congratulations!" for a message from [[Limozeen]]
::'''LIMOZEEN:''' Congratulations Strong Bad on your 100th email!
::''{slight pause}''
::'''LARRY:''' WE'RE FROM THE BAND LIMOZEEN!
::'''GARY:''' Uh, I think it says that at the top of the screen, Larry.
::'''LARRY:''' WELL '''''I''''' DIDN'T KNOW THAT!
::''{The band members strike various poses and the frame freezes, as the central riff from "Because It's Midnite" plays}''
*** Direct link to Limozeen's greeting [http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail100_zeen.swf here].
**"you" to see Homestar deliver his message
::''{Homestar is standing in the field, wearing the Duckie Shirt}''
::'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Happy hundredth birthday, Strong Bad!
**"have" to see a funny message from Marzipan
::''{Marzipan is standing in her house near her answering machine}''

**"answered" to see Senor Cardgage say some stuff
::''{Senor Cardgage is standing in The Field near his bush}''
::'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' Many Combolations, Elizagerth! ''{holds up a sign reading "combolations, elizagerth, and puts it back down, then produces a melty candybar from behind his back}'' I hope you get all my... particles.
::'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{off screen}'' Man, so cool!
**"100" to see The Strong Bad making a telegram. His "doppelgänger" or "copy" is present-day Strong Bad.
::''{The Strong Bad is standing next to a telegraph machine. Half of his moustache has been ripped off, and he is holding a envelope that looks like it contains the missing half of the moustache}''
::'''THE STRONG BAD:''' ''{operating the telegraph}'' Well done, my doppelgänger! Stop! By the time you read this telegrammaparcel, I'll be long dead! Stop! Therefore, I've enclosed half of my moustache therein. Stop! I bid you good tidings, and may you continue to flummox those less fortunate than you!
*Also, clicking in the 2 areas where the fireworks go off will bring you to two other shorts.
**The firework on the left takes you to a TV ad for [[Discount Flashback Warehouse]].
::''{cut to Strong Bad's basement with the Television. Strong Bad's face appears on it}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' Come on down to Discount Flashback Warehouse.
::''{Discout Flashback Warehouse text appears, then disappears. Camera pans back so we can see Strong Bad's body}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' I've got this season. ''{gestures to the left, where a screen from "different town" appears}'' Last season. ''{gestures to the right where a screen from "band names" appears}'' Even stuff I've just made up! ''{The screenshots disappear and "just made up!!" appears as he says it}''
::''{Cuts to just his head again, next to text reading "These prices: $9 $6.53"}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' How can I make these prices any lower?
::''{cuts to Strong Bad standing beneath yellow text that reads "Discount Flashback Warehouse"}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' Just ask for me, the guy that works here ''{very quietly, trailing off}'' at the flashback place.
**The firework on the right shows you what became of the lifetime supply of fishsticks.
::''{cut to the field back in the flashback. The Prince of Town is standing near the broken-open egg}''
::'''THE PRINCE OF TOWN:''' Will no one claim this lifetime supply of fishsticks?
::''{Prince of Town proceeds to dance without any music in the background}''
*Notice the URL is "sbemailahundred.html". If you manually type "sbemail100.html", you'll get a short message from Strong Bad and Homestar with the "The page cannot be displayed" background.
::''{The page starts out empty, there is a howling wind sound. After a couple seconds, Strong Bad walks in from the left.}''
::'''STRONG BAD''': ''{pointing and shaking}'' Oh, I suppose you think your pretty clever, huh? Thought you'd find something you weren't supposed to see yet. Well, It's not gonna--
::''{Homestar Runner walks in from the right.}''
::'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Hey, is this where the 100th e-mail is? ''{Looks around quickly.}''
::'''STRONG BAD''': No! Get out of here!
::'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': When are you gonna do one already??
::'''STRONG BAD''': 'K, just keep your pants on!
::'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Pants? ''{He looks up with his eyes closed, thinking.} Hmmm...''
::'''STRONG BAD''': Yeah, chew on that one for a while. ''{Begins walking off.}'' Teach ya to poke around in my HTML.
::''{After Strong Bad exits, the fake "This is real." alert window paper from [[50 emails]] gets posted onto the screen, reading "System Report: Keep your pants on. For real."}''

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
*The DVD commentary for this episode reveals several interesting facts - originally, it would have been animated in the normal style, and would have told a different story, until the Brothers Chaps decided to re-write it halfway through. Originally, story elements included Strong Bad wearing a star shirt, and Marzipan attempting to do something about Homestar's awful fashion sense (his [[Ducks | duckie]] shirt, and also in this version, a pair of sandals). She gets him a star shirt, and Strong Bad rips his own shirt off in protest, which is why nowadays, Strong Bad never wears a shirt.
*The email was assigned the URL of "http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemailahundred.html," breaking the convention of the previous ninety-nine. This was done because of [[Not the 100th Email!!!]].
*Strong Bad ''actually'' says the word "E-mail" exactly 100 times.
**The Paper comes down during “e-mails” #28 through #30
**For #49 he distinctly says “e-MAIL-a”
**For #67 he quickly says “e-mail-mail-nahduhluh”
**For #72 he says “e-meh-meh-meh-meh-mail”
**"E-mails" #91 and #92 blend together so much that it sounds like “email--mail,” but if it was just one “e-mail” then there would only be 99, so it’s been accepted to be 2 separate “e-mails”
*This is the first time a character has mentioned [[Free Country, USA]].
*To date this has the most easter eggs in a toon at a huge eight.

===Remarks===
*It is debatable whether the story in the book really "happened", since Strong Bad could be making it up. Homestar verifies the tale, but this may just be typical, dense Homestar behavior.
*More proof that Strong Bad's boxing gloves are his hands; the small boxing gloves are referred to as his tiny hands.
*Strong Bad couldn't have lost count at email 51 because in email 91 the intro is "Coming in at number 91, its, EMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIL". However it's possible that he could have said number 91 by coincidence.
*During the ten-step footrace, Strong Bad made more than ten steps, although that wouldn't have affected the result of the race, for he would have lost/won the egg anyway.
*When The Cheat jumps out of the egg Strong Bad says "Awesome! My very own a the Cheat!" but the text says "My very own the cheat!"
*When the Compy said Strong Bad had answered 100 e-mails, that's not entirely true. He answered 2 in [[50 emails]], 2 more in [[2 emails]], and you could say he answered more than one in [[huttah!]] (although he didn't answer any in [[anything]] or [[mile]]). Depending on your definition of "answering" an email, he read extras in [[spring cleaning]] (although they were promptly deleted). If you count by each toon being an e-mail, then he still answered in excess of 103 e-mails, since the 3 bonus e-mails on the DVD are presumably pre-100th. So really, at the time of the hundredth e-mail, Strong Bad actually has answered more than 100 e-mails.
*Though the style of the artwork and the voice acting for most of the characters resembled closely that of the classic Homestar cartoons, Strong Bad, for some reason, sounds nothing like the real "old-school" Strong Bad in the flashback. Old Strong Bad's manner of speaking was very loud and dramatic (almost overacted), and he had a strong Mexican accent. The Strong Bad in the flashback is just the opposite, speaking in a monotonal, mumbling fashion.

===Glitches===
*While the Limozeen video is up, the links beneath it are still clickable.
===Inside References===
*Present in the flashback are [[Mr. Bland]] and [[Señor]], who haven't been seen since [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (toon)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]].
*Strong Bad first uses "grrl" (seen here as grrrl) in [[i she be]]. The word is also used in the [[Teen Girl Squad|Teen Girl Squad Mainpage]] and [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].
*At the very beginning of the toon, the e-mail that Strong Bad starts to read (with the old [[Tandy 400]]-style text) before hitting the screen is the e-mail from [[some kinda robot]], the first-ever [[Strong Bad Email]].
*When he reads the Tandy e-mail, his accent is more like it is in the old cartoons (most notably, he pronounces "you" as "joo" a few times).
*Old style Marzipan, Strong Sad and Strong Mad refer to the concept sketches.
*Old style Coach Z and Bubs refer to "[[Where My Hat is At?]]"
*The Cheat mashing play on a [[Ghetto Blastro | jambox]] also happened in "[[Everybody Knows It]]".
*When Strong Bad gasps at the end of the e-mail, it is the same sound effect of the Dry Meal in [[20X6 vs. 1936]].
*The TV from the Discount Flashback Warehouse egg is from an old H*R.com main menu.
*The two e-mails in the Discount Flashback Warehouse egg are [[different town]] and [[band names]].
*When Senor Cardgage/Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad says "Many [[Combolations | combolations]], Elizagerth", it's a reference to the credits in [[japanese cartoon]].
*The Old-Timey Strong Bad has a sign in his telegram room that states Loafing Not Permitted, a reference to the [[No Loafing Sign|No Loafing sign]]. This also appears in #50, [[50 emails]].
*The Strong Bad appearing with half a mustache was inspired by a waiter [[The Brothers Chaps]] once encountered who sported the same odd facial hair style.
*Strong Bad is heard saying "Man, so cool" in the Senor Cardgage easter egg. He said the same thing in the email "[[kind of cool]]".
*The Cheat's page in the [[Yearbook Character Page]] mentiones that his origins are uncertain. This seems to contradict the events in this email.

=== Real-World References ===
*The widescreen is a perfect 1.85:1 aspect ratio.
*The guitar the guy is holding in the Limozeen egg is the same guitar that Homestar Runner steals in [[Puppet Time]], a Hamer "Bat" spin-off of the more popular Gibson Explorer shape. The bass the other guy is holding is a Fender Jazz-Bass.
*The melty candy bar Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad/Senor Cardgage holds up near the end appears to be a Zagnut bar, which was also seen in [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].

== DVD Version ==
*The Limozeen video is now in fullscreen and much higher quality.
**As well, you can use your DVD player's Angle Button while watching the Limozeen clip to change the clip's background image. There are three separate backgrounds in all.
* Due to it being widescreen, the characters in this email look a little stretched out from top to bottom, unless you are watching it on a widescreen TV. Computer monitors seem to have this problem as well.
*The DVD version features hidden creator's commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.
