'''STRONG BAD:''' OK, let's see if we can kill a few email birds here with one big email bird killing stone. ''{reads email}''

<blockquote class="short tandy email">how are you why don't you make a joke 
kiss 
bettina</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad reads the email exactly as written}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Uh, I'm fine, Bettina. Why don't you make a sentence? ''{stops typing, pulls up second email}'' Let's see what else we've got here... ''{reads email}''

<blockquote class="short tandy email">Homestar Runner is a total dork. Don't you 
think he's a total dork? I think he's a total dork! 
-Jeffrey Gilligan</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' I agree. Don't you think I agree? I agree! ''{stops typing, pulls up third email}'' And lastly... ''{reads email}''

<blockquote class="tandy email">Do you like to horse ride? I am horse woman! 
neigh. Horse woman can beat Strong Bad up. 
*kick* 
 
-Naomi, AB</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad reads AB as "ab"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Strong Bad feed horse woman poison oats. *sting* Minus 15 hit points! ''{types that as "-15 hp}'' ''{stops typing}'' Ohh. That put me in the mood for a little text adventure. I'll talk to you guys later!

''{clears screen, bring up a text adventure, with the following text on the screen}''

<blockquote class="tandy email">Welcome to Text Quest 
 
You are in a hallway. Obvious exits are West, South, 
and Over There. Around you is a dagger and another 
dagger. 
 
What will you do?</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, this is gonna be good. I hope I find some scrolls. Or maybe a flask. ''{typing}'' get dagger

''{Text appears on the screen reading "What is 'dagger'?"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{angrily}'' Oh, you stupid game! The dagger you just told me about!

''{The Paper comes down}''

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
* You can hear the hum in the background when Strong Bad speaks, implying that this was recorded before [[The Brothers Chaps]] got a better mic and thus is an authentic old email.
*These emails were originally up on the now defunct [http://www.homestarrunner.com/wireless.html WAP version] of Strong Bad email.

===Real-World References=
*"What is dagger?" is probably a reference to how many old text adventures usually wouldn't do what you told them to.

===Fast-Forward===
*The text game probably led to [[Thy Dungeonman]], seeing as it's extremely similar.
**The comment on scrolls and flasks are referenced in [[Thy Dungeonman]], for these are key items in Thy Dungeonman.
**The dagger in Thy Dungeonman that you can get without even being told about it is probably a reference to this emai
