This is too minor to be its own page - it could easily belong in [[Dangeresque (film series)]] and/or [[Hanging Objects]] (which I didn't even know existed until [[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] told me... :P). I added a To Be Deleted notice to the page. {{User:Compgrl323/sig}} 05:21, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
:No need to give this an article, just add an image to Hanging Objects and '''delete'''. There's already an Inside Reference on [[Strong Badia the Free]] and a mention on Dangeresque (film series). {{User:The Chort/sig}} 19:51, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Is this necessary? {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 03:14, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
:Hmm, yes, it could be. That is, if we rounded up more facts. I like the idea personally. --{{User:Theyellowdart/sig}} 04:40, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
::I second that. Although, maybe the title could be changed to not generalize the article. Like, "Strong Bad Contradicting Himself". {{User:DevonM/sig}} 04:47, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
:::This is pretty much a rehash of [[Blatant Lies]]. I don't think this page is needed. {{User:Dr._Clash/sig}} 22:24, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
::::I said that to myself when I first saw this page. Then again, I don't really think anyone is really going to be looking for this, so i don't think a redirect is necessary. Basically, '''Dill beat''' it. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 22:35, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
:::::I disagree. While these are blatant lies exposed, this is a totally separate gag. Strong Bad being obviously lame is noteworthy and deserves its own article. Being cool is such an integral part of how SB portraits himself. '''Keep''' but '''rename'''{{User:Loafing/sig}} 22:56, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
::::::Hmm...how about the name "Strong Bad Admits" or something like that? I know it's not great, but it's the best I can think up.--[[User:NintenEthan|NintenEthan]] 00:32, 5 August 2008 (UTC) (Forgot to mention: I think this deserves its own page.--[[User:NintenEthan|NintenEthan]] 00:36, 5 August 2008 (UTC))
:::::::What about putting it into a section on Strong Bad's [[Strong Bad|character page?]] [[User:Shadoman|Shadoman]] 01:27, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
::::::::I agree with Shadoman, this should be mentioned on his character page. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 01:48, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::I think this could work as an article relating to Strong Bad's own admissions of well, lameness. But it needs a rename of some sort. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:09, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::I think "Strong Bad Contradicting Himself" was a good title (kudos to DevonM!). But how do you rename an article? (Being a newbie, I don't know stuff like this.) [[User:Bloohoo]] P.S. How do you make a sig?
:::::::::::We rename articles using the Move option, but only after a consensus is reached. Personally I think this should be added somewhere to the main paragraphs of [[Strong Bad]]'s article. For example, and I paraphrase, ''"While Strong Bad often claims to be pretty cool, he usually turns out to be actually quite lame. In [[your edge]], he responds to Gee Tee's concerns of him losing his edge by recounting the times..."'' and so forth. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 10:56, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::::Much Better Idea.™ XD [[User:Bloohoo]]
(restart chain) Actually, it looks like it's already been done somewhat. Here:

"Strong Bad talks a big line, claiming to be a criminal mastermind, a muscle man, and totally popular with the ladies, though there is little evidence of any of these claims, and no shortage of evidence that they are all untrue. Strong Bad refuses to acknowledge this however, and continues unaffected with his delusions of grandeur. He is convinced that Marzipan likes, or has a crush on, him when in fact she "really doesn't like him at all." Due to his delusional opinions about himself, much of what Strong Bad says is obviously untrue. But Strong Bad also seems to state that he is uncool as seen in the email pizzaz."

In other words, BALEETE IT! [[User:Bloohoo]]
:Update: Just moved it to "strong bad contradicting himself" (I don't feel like using capitals right now). -[[User:Bloohoo]]
::I think you missed the part about AFTER consensus has been reached. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:55, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
:::Oops. I apologize. <:P -Bloohoo

{{tbd}}
{{rename}}
While [[Strong Bad]] claims to be pretty cool, there are occasions where he trips up and reveals himself to be not quite so cool as he always says he is.

*Email [[lures and jigs]] — Strong Bad accidentally admits that he doesn't know how to get ladies.
*Email [[pizzaz]] — While questioning the [[Duplicate Characters|duplicate Strong Bad]]'s decision to wear a captain suit, Strong Bad tricks the duplicate to admit he is not cool.
*[[Decemberween Short Shorts]] — Strong Bad writes to the tube socks he'll be receiving that year, telling them that his bemoaning them is just a farce and that he actually appreciates them very much.
*Email [[your edge]] — Gee Tee worries that Strong Bad might be losing his edge. Strong Bad accidentally justifies this concern by recounting the times [[The Cheat]] and him consciously decided not to reinflate a deflated basketball, feathered [[Strong Sad]], and spread mayonnaise on some cardboard boxes before cleaning the mess up, vaccuming and using air-freshener thirty minutes later. It is also revealed that the pair play "pretend-we're-grandmas-baking time". In an attempt to regain their edge, Strong Bad stomps on a casserole and The Cheat saws a hole in the floor, which the two fall into. They remain in the hole for at least three hours.

Strong Bad is asked if he celebrates Thanksgiving like everyone else. He then shows a history book about the colonization of [[Strong Badia]].

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' {{Film|Strong Bad}}, {{Film|Strong Sad}}, {{Film|Homestar Runner}}, {{Film|The Cheat}}, {{Film|Bubs}}

'''Places:''' [[Computer Room]], [[The Field]], [[Strong Badia]]

{{Comp|Compy 386}}

'''Date:''' Tuesday, November 25, 2003

'''Running Time:''' 1:57

'''Page Title:''' Compy 386!!

{{dvd|strongbad_email.exe Disc Three}}

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' E''mail'' me don't e''mail'' me, e''mail'' me don't e''mail'' me. ''{He pulls up the email and reads it aloud.}''

<blockquote class="compy email">Hi Strong Bad! 
Do you celebrate thanksgiving 
normally? Or do you have special 
traditions for when Strong Badia was 
first colonized? What's the story 
about? 
 
From your Buddy, 
Shana Ma. 
Los Angeles, CA</blockquote>
''{Strong Bad reads "Shana Ma." as one word (Shanama). He also pronounces "Los Angeles" with a hard "g".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Oh, Shanama, the story of the colonization of Strong Badia is a tale as old as, say, the wireless Web ''{pause}'' or energy drinks maybe. It began in a period of strife...

''{Cut to a shot of an old book on a wooden table. It is open and pictures Strong Bad, in a pilgrim hat, squirting ketchup onto a plate of eggs, next to Strong Sad in a wig and typical 17th-century clothing.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voiceover}'' ...when I was being persecuted for my beliefs.

'''STRONG SAD''': ''{voiceover}'' Ewwww! Ketchup on eggs?!?

''{A caption reading "Ewwww! Ketchup on Eggs?!?" appears beneath the picture. The page turns to show Strong Bad reading the newspaper and seeing an ad saying "LOT FOR SALE! along with a page saying "Homestar declares eggs not a fruit."}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voiceover}'' I learned of a place where a man can be free. Free to do what he wants to do. Free to ketchup his eggs without being hassled by the man.

''{The page turns to show Strong Bad and The Cheat, also wearing a pilgrim hat, traveling across Free Country, USA, Strong Bad carrying a musket and eating a sandwich and The Cheat dragging a bag along behind him. A caption along the bottom reads "The Three Stout Sub Sandwiches: The Ham 'n' Swiss, The Dijon Chicken and the Veggie Delux."}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voiceover}'' So I set sail with three stout sub sandwiches, and my best The Cheat to find this mystical land.

''{The page turns to show the two of them meeting Bubs, who is waving at them, wearing a Sioux-style feather headband and wearing a loincloth.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voiceover}'' I met a strange man who had strange ways and strange odors.

''{The page turns to show Strong Badia in front of a glorious sunrise, above a caption reading "The Neu Wirlde."}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voiceover}'' And he led me to the new world, out beyond the dumpsters.

''{The page turns to show the Tire falling onto The Cheat, whose hat is sent flying from his head.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voiceover}'' There was a brief struggle with the indigenous peoples.

''{The page turns to show Strong Bad handing Bubs the rent check.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voiceover}'' At last, we reached an agreement to peacefully co-exist in this land, after I gave him my first and last months' rent deposit.

''{The page turns to show a ploughed field where Bubs is planting a fish. Strong Bad is looking at him, holding a fish and a corn cob in his hand.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voiceover}'' Then the strange man probably showed me how to put fish in the ground with corn, for some reason.

'''BUBS''': ''{voiceover}'' This'll grow ya some nice fishcorn bushes!

''{A caption reading "This'll grow ya some nice fishcorn bushes" appears at the bottom of the page. The page turns to show Bubs, The Cheat and Strong Bad sitting at a picnic table in Strong Badia, feasting on fast food.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{voiceover}'' Then we celebrated with a feast of some cold Hardee's he had laying around.

''{Cut back to the Compy.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{typing}'' So there you have it, Shana... Shanamana... ''{singing}'' Shanamanamanamanamana tonight! That shoulda been in your history books at school. I gotta get on those people over at Hoofton Mifflin. Those guys are slackin off. ''{stops typing}'' Okay, so until next week, leave me alone!

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

== Easter Eggs ==
*After the email is over, click the first part of the word Shanamanamanamanana and Strong Bad will "Shanama" into some songs.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing to the tune of "O Canada"}'' O Shanama... Do do doot doot doot doo... ''{stops singing}'' What else is there? Shana... Shanamatopoeia. Ooh, how 'bout this? ''{singing to the tune of "Panama" by [[Van Halen]]}'' Shanama! Shanama ho ho ho huh ho!
*Also at the end, Click on the words "history books" to hear Homestar Runner address the imaginary masses.
:''{Cut to a page in a history book with a drawing of Homestar, dressed in Colonial American attire (with powdered wig), with text below it reading "Homestar Runner addresses the imaginary masses." There is cheering.}''
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' A-hem. From this day forward, I hereby declare eggs... not to be... a fruit!
:''{More cheering.}''
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yes, yes, quiet down. And furthermore, no longer shall dirty diapers be accepted as legal tender!
:''{More cheering.}''
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hang on, I got one more. Henceforth, those named Henry will no longer be allowed to call themselves Hank. That's just too much of a stretch.
:''{More cheering. Homestar smiles.}''

== Fun Facts ==
===Explanations===
*"Shanamatopoeia" is a play on the literary term "[[onomatopoeia]]", defined as a word that sounds like what it represents, such as "sizzle", "pop", or even "[[preeeeow]]".

===Remarks===
*According to the later e-mail [[monument]], the [[Stop Sign]] and [[Cinder Block]] make up a monument of Strong Bad's right foot. However, they are shown in this e-mail as being part of the area when Strong Bad bought it from Bubs.
*We learn in this e-mail that Bubs owns Strong Badia (which is located behind the dumpsters), and Strong Bad just rents it from him. This fact may explain why Strong Bad said "Maybe get a little place in Strong Badia" in [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]].
**Despite this, it says in the [[Periodicals|Bubsifieds]] that there is a lot for sale
*In the Easter egg, when Strong Bad sings "Shanama" to the tune of Van Halen, his head appears to be floating in the air.

===Glitches===
*The crowd sound plays for a split second at the end of the Shanama easter egg.

===Inside References===
*The background music during Strong Bad telling the history of Strong Badia is an expanded version of the background music in the beginning of [[Tis True, Pom Pom, Tis True]].
*The crowd cheers in the second Easter egg are from [[A Decemberween Pageant]] and [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]].
*Strong Badia was originally established as being "out behind the Dumpsters" in [[i rule]].

===Real-World References===
*The entire story is based on the historical accounts of the [[Wikipedia:Pilgrims|Pilgrims]] founding the [[Wikipedia:Plymouth Colony|Plymouth Colony]], after they were persecuted for their religious beliefs in [[Wikipedia:England|England]]. Bubs's Native American character is probably based off of [[Wikipedia: Squanto|Tisquantum]], better known as Squanto, who, among other things, taught the Pilgrims to fertilize their crops (see below).
**Although the story is mainly based upon the Pilgrims, the "Three Stout Sub Sandwiches" most likely reference the [[Wikipedia:Niña|Niña]], the [[Wikipedia:Pinta|Pinta]], and the [[Wikipedia:Santa María (ship)|Santa María]], the three ships used by [[Wikipedia:Christopher Columbus|Christopher Columbus]] to travel across the Atlantic Ocean and discover the New World.
*"Shanama, Shanama ho ho ho ho ho!" is sung to the tune of "Panama" by [[Wikipedia:Van Halen|Van Halen]]; "O Shanama" is to the tune of "[[Wikipedia:O Canada|O Canada]]" the Canadian national anthem.
*Homestar declaring [[eggs]] not to be a fruit may be a reference to the famous 1893 Supreme Court decision ([[Wikipedia: Nix v. Hedden|Nix v. Hedden]]) that [[Wikipedia:Tomato#Controversies|tomatoes were not fruit]].
*Bubs planting fish-corn bushes is a reference to when the Native Americans showed the Pilgrims how to grow corn (they used fish heads as fertilizer).
*"Hoofton Mifflin" is a misspelling (and mispronunciation) of scholastic publisher [[Wikipedia:Houghton Mifflin|Houghton Mifflin]].
**Houghton Mifflin is correctly pronounced HOE-ton MIF-lin.
*[[Wikipedia:Hardee%27s|Hardee's]] is a fast-food chain primarily [http://cke.know-where.com/hardees/ located] in the Southeastern and Midwestern United States.
*Strong Bad saying "Free to do what he wants to do. Free to ketchup his eggs without being hassled by the man." is a reference to the movie ''[[IMDB:tt0061189|The Wild Angels]]'', in which Peter Fonda says "We wanna be free to do what we wanna do. We wanna be free to ride. We wanna be free to ride our machines without being hassled by The Man!".

==Transcript==

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing to the tune of [[The Cheat Theme Song]]}'' Who's that giving Strong Bad a hand? Email... Email... ''{stops singing}''

<blockquote class="tandy email">hey strong bad, 
help us come up with a name for our band. i was 
thinking about 'invisible robot fish' or 'for good or 
for awesome.' hurry up please, we have our first 
show tomorrow. 
you rule 
- dan</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{clears screen, typing}'' Well, Dan, the easiest way is to ,you know, just have a really cool last name and use that. You know like Van Halen, or Dokken, or to a lesser extent,... Z'Nuff. ''{clears screen}'' And then the other way is to take a really cool word but then spell it all wrong. You know like... ''{stops typing}'' "LAZOR",—

''{An index card with "LAZOR" written on it with red, jagged text appears onscreen. The L's bottom line goes beneath the other letters and connects to the R. All the other letters are connected as well. There's a red light flash after the word. High-pitched music plays.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —or "BIGG NIFE",—

''{The previous image disappears and another logo comes up. It uses blue text and has "BIGG" written on top in an metallic font, and then has "NIFE" written below it in a rounded font and an upward pointing knife replacing the letter I. A guitar strums.}''

'''SINGER:''' ''{offscreen}'' Well, all right!

'''STRONG BAD:''' —or something like "TARANCHULA"—

''{"BIGG NIFE" disappears and "TARANCHULA" comes up with red text. All the letters except for the C, U and L have long fangs hanging downward, and the first A, the N, and the last A are dripping something. Spooky-ish music plays.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —or maybe like "LIMOZEEN".

''{"TARANCHULA" disappears and the Limozeen logo comes up with the diamond-style blue text for everything but the red lightning-shaped "Z" in the middle. Gentle guitar music plays.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know, ''{starts typing}'' these are all—

''{The index card crinkles up and disappears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —great names. ''{stops typing}'' And you know, ''{resumes typing}'' go ahead and take them. I'm not going to charge you or nothing. Just, uh, put me on the guest list plus one for that show huh? I'll probably take Pom Pom. ''{stops typing}'' You know, ''{resumes typing}'' He's been pretty cool lately. ''{stops typing}'' Okay, so tune in next week, when my guests will be Lemmy from Motörhead and the guys from Krokus!

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

==Fun Facts==
===Remarks===
*"For Good or for Awesome", one of the potential band names Dan puts forth, was from [[some kinda robot]].
*"Bigg Nife" sound more like the modern day Limozeen. In this email, Limozeen bear more resemblance to [[Sloshy]].

===Goofs===
*Strong Bad accidentally puts a space before a comma with no space following when he types: ''"the easiest way is to ,you know"''

===Inside References===
*Bigg Nife is a reference to the recurring [[Big Knives]], which first appeared in [[i love you]].
*The coffee cup ring on the [[index card]] is from the recipe card in the [[Homestar Quiz]] when all of the questions are answered correctly.


===Real-World References===
*[[Van Halen]], [[Wikipedia:Dokken|Dokken]], [[Wikipedia:Enuff Z'nuff|Enuff Z'nuff]], [[Wikipedia:Motörhead|Motörhead]], and [[Wikipedia:Krokus (band)|Krokus]] are real bands.
*Strong Bad's "take a really cool word, but then spell it all wrong" method of band-name generation is most likely a reference to real-world bands such as [[Wikipedia:Led Zeppelin|Led Zeppelin]], [[Wikipedia:Def Leppard|Def Leppard]], and [[Wikipedia:The Beatles|The Beatles]], whose names seem to contain intentional spelling errors.
*"Lemmy from Motörhead" refers to [[Wikipedia:Lemmy Kilmister|Lemmy Kilmister]], the band's leader.

===Fast Forward===
*[[Limozeen]], [[Taranchula]], and [[Lazor]] have become actual bands in the Homestar Runner universe.
*When Strong Bad says the name of each made up band, music is heard in the background. Bigg Nife was what ended up sounding like Limozeen, as mentioned in the DVD commentary below.

==DVD Version==

*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch the DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

===Commentary Transcript===

('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])

'''MATT:''' That's, of course, The Cheat Party— I mean The Skate Party theme song for The Cheat. ''{pause}'' Uh, this was, I remember thinking this was the heyday of, like, when we were making these.

'''MIKE:''' This was a fun one to make 'cause I remember you were still working and we did it, um, we finished it up at the end, I think, the morning before you went to work ''{inaudible}''

'''MATT:''' Yeah, I was going into work around 11 or 12.

'''MIKE:''' I remember recording the guitar parts at, like, 8 or 9 in the morning.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. Uh, and making the, uh, coming up with the note cards and stuff. ''{makes guitar noises}'' That was pretty good. I like that uh, stain. What—what is that? Is that coffee? It looks more like Kool-Aid, though. It's a little red.

'''MIKE:''' More like what?

'''MATT:''' Kool-Aid? Fruit punch?

'''MIKE:''' Well, it's supposed to be coffee.

'''MATT:''' Well, you did a bad job.

'''MIKE:''' Thanks.

'''MATT:''' Poor...representation.

'''MIKE:''' I like—I just hit a harmonic note there.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, and that—it's—funny, though, because, like—

'''MIKE:''' Limozeen sounds nothing like that.

'''MATT:''' —Bigg Nife, yeah, Bigg Nife was what really ended up sounding like the Limozeen we've made today whereas this Limozeen just sounds like...Richie Kotzen...like, Deliverance.

'''MIKE:''' Extreme. Yeah.

'''MATT:''' That's a good song. You guys should check that out. Richie Kotzen.

'''MIKE:''' A lot of people listening to this aren't going to know about Richie Kotzen.

===Fun Facts===

*[[Wikipedia:Richie Kotzen|Richie Kotzen]] is a virtuosic guitarist who has been a member of [[Wikipedia:Poison (band)|Poison]] and [[Wikipedia:Mr. Big (band)|Mr. Big]], and has released several solo albums.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Um, I dunno, The Cheat, I don't think it was very good.. at all. I mean, the song was kinda catchy but the visuals were lacking, at best.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' This is the best video game I've ever played.

===Commentary Transcript===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Mike Chapman]], [[Matt Chapman]])

'''MIKE:''' So, here is the debut of The Cheat's flash animation style, right?

'''MATT:''' That's right, Mike!

'''MIKE:''' And this song was made by these two guys that just emailed us, Jesse and Josh, who we've, uh, since met.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, they're nice boys.

'''MIKE:''' They're nice boys. Where're they from, Nashville?

''{pause}''

'''MATT:''' Yes.

'''MIKE:''' I think, Tennessee, somewhere?

'''MATT:''' I believe so. Sorry, guys!

'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Anyway, so, they made this song, and uh, it was good, and we liked it. And lots of people thought it was us. Even our sister, like, really thought it was us, even after we put the Skate Party up there, they... "This is you, right"?

'''MATT:''' Yeah. Which is a testament to how, you know, it just matched out sensibilities so well! ''{pause}'' Umm... what else? I remember you made this in, like, a few hours! I— I was— I went to work; you had sort of messed around with it; I went to work at, like, eleven, of course, and then by, like, four, I think you were done.

'''MIKE:''' It'd be nice if we could do updates like that these days!

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Yeah, I agree.''{pause}'' Umm, and I think we— did we even decide that it was The Cheat that made it until we kind of thought like, "Oh, we should make it at the end!" Like, I don't think we set out— I think it was set out to be kind of weird and bad.

'''MIKE:''' T— Bad Flash video?

'''MATT:''' Yeah. ''{pause}'' This is the Debut of The Cheat's iMac, too, right— or no, was that— that email come first; I don't remember.

'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Yeah, I'm not sure.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Tangerine, Matt.

'''MATT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Tanqueray. Ta—

'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Tanqueray and Tab. Ernie McCracken.

===Fun Facts===
====Remarks====
*"That email" with [[Tangerine Dreams]] in it that Matt refers to is [[i she be]], which did come out shortly before this toon.

[[Image:Trapper Keeper Main.PNG|220px|thumb|Sketch'D!]]

Homestar is a sketch drawn on lined paper.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' {{Film|Homestar Runner}}

'''Place:''' A notebook.

'''Icon:''' Sheet of notebook paper.

'''Page title:''' "Trapper Keeper!!"

==Button Effects==
*'''[[TV Time Toons Menu|Toons]]''' — The paper background changes among four different kinds: white notebook paper, elementary-school lined writing paper, yellow legal pad paper, and graph paper.
*'''[[Scrolling Shooter Games Menu|Games]]''' — A circled F appears on the paper with the note, "See me after class."
*'''[[Character Videos|Characters]]''' — Logos of rock bands [[Van Halen]], [[Wikipedia:KISS (band)|KISS]] and [[Wikipedia:Led Zeppelin|Led Zeppelin]] appear.
*'''[[Downloads]]''' — Homestar's head lifts up, exposing a portion of his spine.
*'''[[Store]]''' — A [[Sticky Note]] with [[Strong Bad]]'s head and the message "I rule" is stuck over Homestar's head.
*'''[[Email]]''' — A paper football flies by.

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*Homestar's mouth is not animated for the "Store" button due to the Sticky Note over his face. Therefore, if you mouse over Store and move away again, Homestar appears to be talking without moving his mouth.
===Trivia===
*This and [[Main Page 12]] are the only Main Pages to use the old style Homestar.
*Homestar is drawn in an older style with smaller eyes and a different curve to his lower lip. He is also missing his propeller hat. *This is the very first, and so far, the only H*R main page that does not have any additional sound effects.
===Remarks===
*In the .swf version, a sketch drawn mouse cursor is visible outside the frame.
===Real-World References===
*[[image:Zoso.png|30px]] is the symbol that represents guitarist [[Wikipedia:Jimmy Page|Jimmy Page]] on Led Zeppelin's unnamed [[Wikipedia:Led Zeppelin IV|fourth album]].
*[[Wikipedia:Trapper Keeper|Trapper Keeper]] is a brand-name seller of American binders and notebooks, most of which are prepackaged with this style of paper.

==Transcript==

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' I got an email in my pocket, and I think it's starting to melt. ''{stops singing}'' Again with the--

''{reading email}''

<blockquote class="email">dear strong bad, 
what do you do on all the other days 
of the week? 
sincerely, 
brian holmes CA</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad reads the name as "B. Ryan Holmes, certified... arborist...")

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing and speaking like a robot while bobbing his head sporadically}'' Good question, Brian. I am going to answer this email like a robot. Don't you think this is a great idea? ''{normal voice}'' Yeah, sorry, me neither. OK, other days o' the week. Let's see ''{spells "lessee"}''...

''{A calendar appears with a heading "A Month" and weeks starting on Monday. On Monday is written "checka my e-mail".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' On Tuesdays, I check my snail mail.

''{"checka my snail mail" appears in handwriting on Tuesday. Cut to Strong Bad at a mailbox that reads "sb_snailmail.exe"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' I got a snail mail in my pocket, and I think it's starting to melt...

''{He opens his letter, clears his throat and reads it.}''

<blockquote class="email" style="background-image:none;border:2px solid black;background:#ffffff;color:#000">Dear Mr. Bad, 
This constitutes your final warning. 
Please remit payment of three(3) 
dollars and sixty-two(62) cents or 
you will be turned over to a "cut off 
your toes" -style collections agency. 

Swarthily, 
Bubs' Concession Stand</blockquote>

'''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... ''{normally}'' BMW?!?

''{Strong Bad pulls out the [[BMW lighter]] and burns the paper, laughing. He then looks around.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' BWA HA HA HA HA HA! Haa ha haw... Hoh.. Oh.. Um... Where's my house?

''{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" appears on Wednesday. Cut to the chalkboard with Coach Z and Strong Mad listening to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You gots to look insiiide yourself! Positate the negative! When life throws pies atcha, you make yourself a tall, cool glass of piemonade.

'''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" appears 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}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' You know... because we have to abbreve 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 ''soo'' 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" appears in the Saturday box}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' No, no, definitely not Speedo. ''{Short pause}'' 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.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...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" appears for Sunday. Cut to Strong Bad sitting at a gray computer with the word "BLOCK" in the bottom-left corner.}''

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

''{reading, translator speaks over Strong Bad in Polish: Silne Złe: Proszę rozwiązywać sznurowadło z tyłu głowy. Janusz, Polska}''

<blockquote class="email" style="border: 4px solid #999">Dear Strong Bad: 
Please to be untieing that shoelace on 
the back of your head? 
 
Janus 
Poland</blockquote>

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

''{Translator continues: Rozwiązywać sznurowadło, eh Janek? Twoja matka jest ograniczenie prędkości. Z aspiryną, Silne 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==
[[Image:Arborist.png|thumb|"B. Ryan Holmes, certified... arborist..."]]
*Click on "brian holmes CA" after Strong Bad says "Certified Arborist" to see B. Ryan Holmes's business card. The card reads:
<blockquote>B. Ryan Holmes 
Certified Arborist 
 
PHONE: 555-XYLM 
MOBILE: COMING SOON 
 
"I think it has to do with trees!" </blockquote>

*At the end, click on "my week" to see Strong Sad waking Strong Bad up for swim practice.

:''{cut to the couch. Strong Bad is sleeping on it, as usual. Strong Sad walks in wearing a pair of swimming goggles and a swimming cap}''
:'''STRONG SAD:''' Strong Bad...
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{mumbling}'' Dangit... chrona trigga!
:'''STRONG SAD:''' Strong Bad, wake up!
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{mumbling}'' Chrona trigga!
:'''STRONG SAD:''' We're going to be late for swim practice!
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{mumbling}'' Chrhn - Chrono Trigger!
:''{Strong Sad produces a stick with a pair of Speedo-style swimming trunks at the end of it, face turns away in disgust}''
:'''STRONG SAD:''' I've got your swim trunks.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{mumbling}'' Magus, I'm gonn... I'll kill ya.

*At the end click on "piemonade," to see an advertisement for real life [[Piemonade]].

==Fun Facts==
=== Explanations ===
*"Snail mail" is a term that refers to the postal service, in comparison to the significantly faster email service.

===Trivia===

*In Biz Cas Fri, Homestar wears a shirt labeled 'Diskettes Etc.', while Strong Bad's has 'Micro Palace'.
*The Battle Axe flyer reads:
<blockquote>BAD AT 
BATTLE AXEING??? 
 
Come join 
Dolph Hauldhagen 
and learn professional 
techniques that will 
boost your confidence 
and deadliness. 
 
Community Rec Center     "The Instruc-TOR" 
Sat. 6am-9am                 Dolph Hauldhagen 
 
PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN BATTLE 
AXE AND AN EXERCISE MAT. 
 
555-4AXE{x9}</blockquote>
*Brian Holmes and 'Holmes' (from [[huttah!]]) are both from California.
*[[Dolph Hauldhagen]] is just [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] with a [[horned helmet]]. The battleaxe is actually [[Puppet Stuff|Puppet Homestar]]'s stand, after being edited in Photoshop.
*The translator for Strong Bad's Polish email is the voice of [[Dan Cubus]], a friend of [[The Brothers Chaps]].
*The email was originally released without the translations.
*This is an occurance of [[Biz]].

===Remarks===
*The calendar starts on Monday, as per some European countries. North American 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 "[[Wikipedia:Frag|frag]]" is a kill.
*Strong Bad helps people "over the hump" on Wednesdays. Some people refer to Wednesday as "[[Wikipedia:Hump day|Hump Day]]" since it is in the middle of the week.
*The Cheat is seen cleaning the [[Tire]], so Strong Bad must have temporarily disabled the [[Bear holding a Shark]].
*At the end, the Paper comes down, but does not cover the first line of the e-mail, as it does in other e-mails. (This is probably because the Strong Sad Easter egg on "my week" is on this line, and could not be covered up.)
*In the "my week" Easter egg, Strong Sad enters the basement empty handed, yet he [[Hammerspace|somehow produces Strong Bad's swimming trunks]] from behind the couch.
*Strong Bad's mailbox says sb_snailmail.exe.

===Goofs===
*When Homestar says "so many frags" and is looking to the left, his torso is flipped, and consequently the buttons on his collar appear on the wrong side and "Diskettes Etc." appears backwards for a split second.
*When Strong Bad turns off the vacuum in Strong Badia, you can still see a patch behind the vacuum of the dirt cloud.
*When Strong Bad is vacuuming, his right eye is a lighter shade of green.

===Inside References===
*This is another instance of Strong Bad's [[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 reminiscent of that from "dullard".
*When Strong Bad mentions having to do community service for a prior arrest, it is likely a reference to the [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]].
*The way that Strong Bad answers the Polish email is a likely reference to the email [[little questions]] in which he answers another foreign email.

===Real-World References===
*Strong Bad's intro song for this email (as well as for the snail-mail and the East-European email) is sung to the tune of ''[[Wikipedia:Oh! Susanna|Oh! Susanna]]''.
*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 [[Nintendo#Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES)|SNES]] [[Wikipedia:CRPG|RPG]], ''[[Wikipedia:Chrono Trigger|Chrono Trigger]]''. The "I'll kill you" in the swim practice Easter egg is directed at [[Wikipedia:Magus (Chrono Trigger)|Magus]], a villain/party member in the game. ''(Also see Inside References.)''
** Janus, the name of the Polish email sender, is also a significant name in Chrono Trigger.
*The name of his other computer, "[[Block]]," is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Eastern Bloc|Soviet Bloc]]—the group of Eastern European nations which were under communist government.
*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 [[Wikipedia:Iron Maiden (band)|Iron Maiden's]] name almost always appears ([http://www.abstractfonts.com/search/Metal%20Lord Metal Lord]). One of their first songs ever, "Invasion", released only on a four track album of which 5000 copies were made, was about Viking invaders.
*Strong Bad's imitation of a robot seems to be a reference to Harry in the documentary "[[IMDB:tt0334405|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?"
*"Stay smart, vacuum...dirt" may be based on "Be Smart! Don't Start!", a motto used in a series of '80s PSAs trying to discourage minors from drinking alcohol.
*The phone number for Brian Holmes, Certified Arborist (555-XYLM), is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Xylem|xylem]], the major water transporting tissue of a tree.
*The style of voice-over during the Polish e-mail is reminiscent of that used on Polish television, where foreign language programs are not dubbed with different actors, but instead narrated entirely by a single actor, usually male. Also, unlike American dubbing, in which the re-dubbed track replaces the original, Polish dubbing is laid on top of the original audio track, as the narrator's voice is here.

===Fast Forward===

*"Biz Cas Fri" would be the subject of three Puppet Stuff features, [[Biz Cas Fri 1|Biz Cas Fri]], [[Biz Cas Fri 2]], and [[Biz Cas Fri 3]].
*Strong Bad's final payment notice is signed with Bubs's full name, which was revealed to be Bubs Concession Stand in [[Senorial Day]]. Here "Bubs'" has an apostrophe, though, as a possessive, which isn't seen in [[Senorial Day]].
*In [[Summer Short Shorts]], The Cheat is called "The Cheatasaurus" in the [[Powered By The Cheat]] clip.
*The Battle Axe Lessons flyer reappears in [[Lappynapped!]].
*In [[pizza joint]], Homestar shortens pepperoni to "p-roni", etc., similar to piemonade being shortened to "p-nade".
*It is revealed in ''[[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]]'' that Strong Bad's house is actually [http://files.telltalegames.com/strongbad/screenshots/strongbad-3.jpg just off the screen to the right] when he's checking his snail mail.

*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

'''MIKE:''' Welcome to the email commentary for this email.

'''MATT:''' Thanks! I feel really good about this one, and I am ready to go.

'''MIKE:''' All right, let's get started. All right. We started here, well Strong Bad has started,

'''MATT:''' Strong Bad needs to learn the abbreviations for states.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, that's true. He has a problem with them.

'''MIKE:''' Yes, it's true.

'''MATT:''' All right, here's Strong Bad's...

'''MIKE:''' Mailbox. Which has appeared one more time, one other time?

'''MATT:''' Yeah. Still no sign of his house, though.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. No house. Just a mailbox. Not on the road.

'''MATT:''' No.

'''MIKE:''' Just in the grass.

'''MATT:''' In the greens. I don't think Strong Bad's being very sincere right now, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' This is a good example of sarcasm.

'''MATT:''' We've had lots of requests for the BMW lighter. Did you mention that on the last DVD?

'''MIKE:''' I dunno. I don't think it exists.

'''MATT:''' No, it doesn't.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, it was early in the morning, wasn't it?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, it was, like, 2 in the morning, and I went to Kroger and got some pie and some lemonade,

'''MATT:''' Nice work!

'''MIKE:''' I think I got an extra piece of pie and ate it and I drank some lemonade.

== Stinkoman 20X6 sprites! ==

I love the animated sprites from Stinkoman 20X6 you've been getting. Are you planning on making any of 1-Up? <tt>[[User:Homestar Coder|Aurora the Homestar Coder]]</tt> 22:31, 1 May 2005 (UTC)
:Um, not at the moment. They're just for Stinkoman 20X6 Enemies, and 1-Up isn't in there. They aren't too hard to make, though. - [[User:Joshua|Joshua]]

Why did you move these? They were correct as they were. →''<tt>[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]</tt>''
: Beat me to it. I was about to ask the very same question. --[[User:Jay|''Jay'']] [[User talk:Jay|(Talk)]] 02:02, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
:: I didn't like it and asked about it in the talk page, but when nobody responded, I decided to try it and see what the response was. I had every intention to change it back if it wasn't wanted, but it seems like you did that instead. -- [[User:Joshua|Joshua]] 02:16, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

:::If you watch the answering machines 9-12, you'll see that it says "Version #.2", but I'm sure you knew that. Thanks for understanding. →''<tt>[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]</tt>''
::::Yes, but as I stated in the talk page, I don't like it, and if we do that, we might as well make all the others X.0. I just don't think it's nessecary, and I think it looks worse. I understand why it was done, I just think it needs to be changed. -- [[User:Joshua|Joshua]] 12:11, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

:::::We're just following what [[The Brothers Chaps]] do. If they decide suddenly to change all [[Strong Bad Emails]] to, say, "Strong Bad Email #5.8", we would, too. The other machine's don't need "#.0" on them because they don't on the offical site, yet the 9-12 do. Again, just doing what TBC do. →''<tt>[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]</tt>''

== 1933 ==

Actually, it was not I who [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Main_Pages&diff=114541&oldid=114538 first noticed this], but Darklinkskywalker. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:46, 31 Aug 2005 (UTC) P.S. If you're gonna put my name in the edit summary, notice the capitalization. I'd hate to be [[HRWiki:Da_Basement#Page-move_vandals_impersonating_members|confused for a troll]]. ;) But you can call me "Dot com" for short, if you want. :)
:But it was you who didn't want it to be changed to [[Old-Timey]] with everything else, because it had a verified date. - '''''[[User:Joshua|Joshua]]'''''
::Nah, I don't care about the actual date. [[1933]] just happens to be the name of the page for the pre-sound Old-Timey cartoons. That page could be called "Even More Old-Timey" and it would be just fine with me. Actually, that's a horrible title, but you get the point. My thinking on this subject is not very strong either way, but since 1933 is slightly more specific, I thought it should stay. I would, however, be interested in any suggestions or thoughts you have. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:25, 31 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:Well, the page title itself reads "Old Timey." But as you said, I don't care either way. But do we even have proof that it was released in 1933 (2000)? It could very well be a 1934 thing. - '''''[[User:Joshua|Joshua]]'''''
::Like I said, the date itself isn't my area of expertise. Look at the [[Main Pages]] page again. I put in another link. Do you think that improves it? — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:51, 31 Aug 2005 (UTC)
:I don't know if that's an improvement. Either link to 1933 or link to Old-Timey, but not to both. Remember that the 1933 blatantly links to the Old-Timey page anyway. Linking to Old-Timey in the description is like... linking to something in transcript dialogue. - '''''[[User:Joshua|Joshua]]'''''
::Well, I see you changed it back. I don't care about this enough to really put up a good argument, but I will say once more that you seem to be fixating on the ''year'' 1933, when I'm saying that I was just linking to the page with the ''title'' "1933", because that's the page for the soundless H*R era. It's just like how "Old-Timey" used to be called "1936". — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:08, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:::Yes, well, that would have been a good arguement if it weren't for the fact that your "1936" thing is about a week late, and now supports my preference. - '''''[[User:Joshua|Joshua]]'''''

== Stop editing me! ==

'''Joshua!! Stop editing my stuff!! What'd I ever do to ''you''?!''' -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]
:You were breaking the rules. So I fixed it so you wouldn't get in trouble. (Although it seems like you un-fixed it and got in trouble anyway.) - '''''[[User:Joshua|Joshua]]'''''

== ( )'s ==

Why not? — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:49, 13 Sep 2005 (UTC)

== Quote of the Week archive ==

Hi there Joshua. There's no need to archive the [[Quote of the Week]] page. The page is neither too long nor does it have many images on it. Thanks anyway though.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 01:56, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)
:Are you sure? I mean, it's going to get long eventually, and the other two weeklies need archiving. I think they should be archived in a similar fashion as [[H*R.com updates 2005|H*R Updates]]. - {{User:Joshua/sig}}

::Have you determined if there is community consensus for this pretty major change? I already started a discussion on the [[Talk:Quote of the Week]] page, feel free to add to it.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 02:00, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)
:::Well, I sort of did [[Talk:Weekly Fanstuff#Archive Page|here]]. I only got two replies, but they were both positive and that was 2+ weeks ago. I figured I would just do all three, starting with QotW. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 02:04, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

== [[The Geddup Noise]] ==

Joshua,
Yes, we're still missing some! Like i mentioned before in the [[Talk:The_Geddup_Noise#Still_Pending_.26_Suggestions|discussion]], I only went through 70-95 for sure on my end. That's why I put the "[[Talk:The_Geddup_Noise#Gettup_Noise_Approved|geddup noise approved]]" table, so that we could coordinate what emails had yet to be checked and where the noise was found if at all. That way we don't unnecessarily duplicate efforts and also guarantee thoroughness. Unfortunately I haven't had the chace to Finish the table (I haven't even put info on the ones I didn't find on the 70-95 range, nor are all the ones listed in the page in this table), but it's there for that purpose. TTYL --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 18:33, 6 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Wow. I greatly admire what you've done with your User Page! Let me be the first to say how sleek and easy to nagivate it is now. Very impressive. {{User:The Paper/sig}} 03:55, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
:Thanks. I'm happy that I finally got a cool, unique main page. :) - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 12:41, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

== Action captions ==
Hey, as long as you're overhauling old sbemails, can you fix problems with the ''{---}''-type action descriptions? [[HRWiki:Standards#Transcript]] seems to me to mean that brief descriptions should stay within the character's line, without a break, and may ''or may not'' be full sentences with capatilization and a period. Longer descriptions should get a new line, and the character can start speaking again after that. Those ''have'' to be full, capped, perioded, sentences. But if it has a period it should definitely start with cap, one way or the other. (I've also been reluctant to break character's sentences; see [[Family Resemblence]]. I left a lot of fairly short, full-sentence descriptions inline because otherwise Strong Bad's sentences would be chopped up into bunches of '''STRONG BAD:''' 's.) —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 13:21, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
:I'm aware with how the standards work, although I missed the whole "actions more than a few words long should have their own line" part. I'll fix that up. (Also, I noticed [[modeling]] is a huge mess, I might fix that up soon) - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 13:40, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
::Also, I think all actions that take place inside the dialogue (and not on their own line) should not be full sentences, for consistency's sake. - {{User:Joshua/sig}}

== We speak American here dog-gonnit! ==

In reference to your revert about Enligsh spelling, I have a general question. I am American and so are the creators of H*R, but what are the wiki standards of language. This is obviously an int'l site as JoeyDay the commander-in-chief of this wiki is an Aussie. How do we determine spelling for things such as color vs colour? From any Aussies, I'd also be interested to know if your spelling closer resemble, American or English spellings?
{{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 14:53, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
:See [[HRWiki_talk:FAQ#English_English_v._American_English_Spelling|here]] for a dicussion on this subject. And incidentally, you may want to read the second paragraph on [[User:JoeyDay|this page]] as well. {{User:Some HSR themed username/sig}} 15:09, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
::JoeyDay is an American, but this is an international site as it contains users from America, Canada, the UK, Australia, etc. Anyway, when it comes to favorite vs. favourite, do what you like, but I'm going to do it the way TBC do it. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 15:33, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
:::I stand corrected on Joey's country of origin. If there are any Aussie's here, I'd still be interested in how they spell? {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}}

:::One of my friends, [[User:Super Sam|Super Sam]], is an Aussie. He spells stuff with unnessecary vowels. (i.e. colour) - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 16:17, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
::Australian English generally is a mixture of both British and American English, however leans a lot more towrads British English. For example, we spell words like: "colour", "favourite", "defence", "cheque" and use words like "lift", "tap" and "aeroplane". That's not to say that ''some'' American words aren't favoured (darn "u"!) over British words (e.g. we use "truck", not "lorry"). {{User:Rainer/sig}} 08:30, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

==Fictional==

I would keep fictional in this case; otherwise, we would have similar sub-heads (seeing as the "real" got dropped off of the bands and companies on the contributors page. People would do searches and get confused (do you think that somebody who is trying to access information quickly will have time to read the entire page?)
:People shouldn't assume that bands and companies are real on a page about characters that are obviously fictional. Having real people and stuff on that page was a mistake. Once the memory of that mistake fades, there will be no more reason to have "Fictional Companies" than to have "Fictional Items" or "Fictional Places". - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 23:57, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
::I'm not talking about the page, I'm talking about the sub-head. The search engine works in categories. One of those categories is sub-heads. When the person does not get a page return for titles, they will look for sub-heads. Then, they will see two choices. They will pick one, read it, and close the window and get back to work. Isn't the wiki supposed to be designed for outsiders to obtain information easily (much like a newspaper)? It's the 10 minute theory: the average person today in American society (sorry if your a different nationality; this is the only statistic that I know is true) has only 10 minutes to watch the news.

== Stinkoman Playable Chars? ==

Heya Joshua... can you give me a brief rundown on what I "failed to add" when I shortened the descriptions and redid the formatting on [[Stinkoman 20X6 Playable Characters]]? I've done the same exact kinds of edits to numerous other pages, and those pages weren't reverted. I was just trying to make this page more consistent with others on the site, both in terms of formatting and the conciseness of the descriptions. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 17:50, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
:Well, first off I'd like to tell you that I'm a little protective of that page, as I worked so hard on it. Secondly, you simply took a lot of information out of it. Now a lot of your edit I found beneficial, but a some sections had a lot of information taken out of them, expecially the Stinkoman w/giant fist, 1-Up and Stinkowing sections. Mostly just a lot of missecallious information such as speed and shooting that apparently you thought was unneeded. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 17:56, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
::Well, sure. There was a lot of conversational info in those descriptions that didn't seem to directly benefit the player. The largest reduction was in the Stinkowing's description, where I basically reduced it to a functional description of what it is, what it does, and how to control it. The current description is about twice as long and contains fluff like "Gravity doesn't affect it". It was stuff like that that I was trying to cut down on. Perhaps you could just have added it back in rather than undoing the entire edit? {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 18:00, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
:Yes, a merge of both versions would probably be best. For example of the bad, in the Stinkoman with giant fist section, you made his ability to block lava flows and kill enemies very vague. You also got rid of all info regarding his lack of speed and jumping power. Losing information is never a good compromise to having less text. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 18:05, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
::I thought that was implied, personally, but again, that info is easy to just add back in. Reading back over my edit, I see a couple other spots where that sort of info may be missing. Would you mind if I took another shot at my rewrites, keeping in mind that extra info? {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 18:07, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
:::Yeah, you go do that, and then later today when I have more free time I'll go through it and fix anything I think still needs fixing. Keep in mind that most of the information lost was in the Fist, 1-Up and Stinkowing sections. ("Implied" info should still be recorded, for completeness' sake) - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 18:08, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
::::If you'd rather do it, go ahead. I don't want to step on any toes here. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 18:10, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
:::If you want me to do it, I'll take a while, as I'm busy at the moment. And then I might forget... so if you choose not to do it and then I forget, just give me a poke. - {{User:Joshua/sig}}
::::I took care of it. I think you'll be happy with the new text. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 18:28, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

==Aloha==

I just thought that I'd pop in and say hi.--{{User:Homsarroks/sig}} 18:26, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
:Um... do I know you? - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 18:49, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
Nope. I just found your name and thought that I would introduce myself. That's all.--{{User:Homsarroks/sig}} 19:17, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
:(If you're seriously creeped out Joshua, dont worry, Homsarroks has done that to a lot of users). {{User:Bubsty/sig}} 03:22, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

== HRWiki Tour ==

Why do you keep posting that? I already replied on the [[HRWiki_talk:Tour#Location|tour talk page]], which is the only place there really needs to be a discussion. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:41, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
:Oh, when you didn't reply on your talk page I assumed you ignored the question altogether. I'll go do... stuff. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 02:02, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

== Happy New Year! ==

I know it's a little late, I just wanted to wish you a happy new year, and my you creat new and funny fanstuff! {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 10:43, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
:Happy new year to you too. I got to milk a cow!!! ''{coughs}'' Errr... I didn't think you read my fanstuff. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 13:28, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

== Trogdor's pic ==

Why did you remove the new image from the [[Trogdor]] page? It didn't take up space, as it was in the same line. I find this image funny and I think it should be included. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 19:13, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
:The problem is that it simply was almost the same exact picture as the original, just holding an object. Hardly a "reincarnation". - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 19:15, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
::You know what? Nevermind. I'll just add it to Other Costumes. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 19:17, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

==My will==
I left you something at the fanstuff wiki my [[HRFWiki:User:H*bad|User page]].--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 04:16, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
:Sorry, but I have no need or desire for your already finished quiz thing. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 11:53, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

== TGS Issue 6/Dween Issue-What's Her Face ==

It may be true that she was alive in the Easter Egg, but characters have been killed and then been alive in easter eggs before in TGS: See [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 9|Issue 9]], where So-And-So is in an easter egg even though she is a ghost at the end, and [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 10|Issue 10]], where all characters except for The Ugly One are killed in the toon, and then they are all killed again in an Easter Egg. {{User:Dylnuge/sig}} 19:21, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
:True, but those examples are cuts from the continuity of the episode, while this Easter egg appears to take place right after the wave appears. (And What's Her Face still has babies clinging onto her, as if she survived the wave.) - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 20:03, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

== Q98 ==
How'd you notice this sighting? You don't live anywhere near where I live. [[User:Strong Devon|Strong Devon]] 11:37, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
:Huh-wuh-wha? - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 03:04, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
::Where did you get the Q98 sighting for the [[Radio Sightings]] page...you don't live near Fargo Moorhead. [[User:Strong Devon|Strong Devon]] 11:37, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
:::I don't recall recording that. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 13:49, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
::::The Q98 Sighting was {{pl|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Sightings&diff=67059&oldid=67056 added}} by an anonymous contributor... Joshua only {{pl|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Radio_Sightings&oldid=80729 added it}} to the [[Radio Sightings]] page because it was him who {{pl|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Sightings&diff=next&oldid=80639 moved it}} from the main [[Sightings]] page when that was split up. The second half of the sighting was later {{pl|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Radio_Sightings&diff=133232&oldid=133045 added}} by the same anonny. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 14:10, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

== HALP! (again) ==

Boo. Remember the guy named Bloohoo that needed help getting on the HRFW forum? It's me again, and this time, I can't find the 'new topic' button at ALL! Where is it? -Bloohoo P.S. Your fanstuff rules. :D

Edit: On the regular forum, I mean. The fanstuff forum in blocked off due to the purge.
:It is on the bottom left. Not quite all the way down, though. To the left of the "Page" indicator. --{{User:Theyellowdart/sig}} 05:06, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
::Thanks. Whew. [[User:Bloohoo]] Edit: Oops. Didn't realize the off-topic was locked off for now. Boo. :(
