==Transcript==

''{Theme music begins to play as the words "homestarrunner.com presents HREMAIL #7" gradually grow larger on the screen. "Copyright 2001" appears in the bottom right corner. Cuts to Homestar Runner in his [[Homestar Runner Evolution|fifth design]] doing a dance in time to the music, which soon ends.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh hello everybody everybody! I'm Homestar Runner.

''{Scene changes to show Homestar Runner sitting behind a wooden desk.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Today's question goes like-a this-a...

''{Drumroll sounds, Homestar taps his shoes in anticipation.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{Reading aloud.}'' Greetings Homestar Runner!

''{Zooms in on a piece of paper containing the e-mail.}''

<blockquote class="email" style="background:#FFF;color:#000">
Greetings Homestar Runner! 
Can you talk about some of your favorite drinks? 
~Johnny V. 
DeKalb, IL
</blockquote>

''{Reads "Johnny V." as "Johnny Vest in the Chest"}''

''{Scene changes back to the desk.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Of course I can talk about my fave-o drinks!

''{Cuts to an angle shot of Homestar.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' And as a national spokesmodel for the ''{logo appears in the corner of the screen}'' Ethical Advancement of Melonade, I am contractually unable to drink, ''{logo slides off-screen}'' talk about, or bathe in any other liquid!

''{Cuts back to desk.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Most folk think that melonade comes in but one flavor.

''{Zooms in on Homestar with desk top still visible.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' But thanks to giant leaps in melonade technology, we can now choose from hundreds of flavor-encrusted varieties. Some of my favo flavors include:

''{Zooms in on the melonade can on the desk.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Taco Annihilation, ''{replaces the can with one labeled the same in fiesta lettering and a mushroom cloud over a taco}'' Athletic Berry Blast, ''{slides another can next to it}'' Butt 1 Flavor, ''{places a can with a picture of a discarded cigarette butt on it near Taco Annihilation}'' Quadruple Triple, ''{slides it in front of Taco Annihilation and Athletic Berry Blast}'' CostaLatte Froth, ''{places a can with a picture of a teacup on it on the far right}'' and Sizzlin' Bacon Guava Quench. ''{places a can with bacon and guava fruit in front of Quadruple Triple and Casta Latte Froth}''

''{Zooms out to show Homestar again.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Or why not try the new line of powdered throat closers. ''{holds up a pink packet labeled Melonade Throat Closers}'' Apply directly to the esophagus!

''{Homestar Runner opens the packet and pours the powder into his mouth. He then begins to cough, his eyes growing increasingly smaller until his throat visibly tightens.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{gasping}'' Huuuh— that's good stuff!

''{Scene switches to show Strong Bad and The Cheat walking as music plays in the background.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing off-key}'' I have a face, and it ''{unintelligible}'', I'm Strong Bad, he's The Cheat and I'm Strong Bad...

''{Music stops as the two arrive at Homestar's desk where he's sitting unhappily.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What's going on here, crap for nose?

''{Zooms in on Homestar Runner.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{hoarsely}'' Oh, hi, Strong Bad. ''{gradually improves}'' I'm in the middle of responding to a fan email.

''{Switches to Strong Bad, scratching his head in confusion.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' A what-mail?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' An email, ''{zooms out to show everyone}'' like on the Internet!

'''STRONG BAD:''' A what-mail on the Inter-what?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You know, WWW, hyperlinks, AOL keywords, ''{the text "AOL Keyword> Macromedia Flash 5 Animation" appears at the bottom of the screen}'' and all that good stuff!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Homestar, your dumbness never ceases to amaze. I don't even know half the jibber you jabber these days!

''{Cuts to show Strong Sad waving his hand in the air.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' No, Homestar's right. Electronic mail ''{the screen goes black and hypnotic as he continues, his voice becoming increasingly echoed}'' is transmitted from one computer to another, via a web of computers connected to phone line—

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{screen suddenly goes back to normal}'' Hush down, crap for mouth!

'''STRONG SAD:''' When you dial up, it sounds like this!

''{Strong Sad starts imitating modem handshaking noises. Scene cuts to Strong Bad and The Cheat, then to Homestar Runner, who furrows his brow, then back to Strong Sad as he finishes. He slowly looks up. Then it cuts back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Let me get this straight. You guys are saying that my adoring fans could be sending me piles of what-mails right now, and I'm not getting them?

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{pronounces it slowly}'' Emails.

''{Switches to a closeup of Strong Bad's mouth.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Eeeee-mails? ''{his mouth begins to wobble as he tries pronouncing the word}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, you need an email address first. I can let you borrow strongbad@homestarrunner.com until you get your own domain.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, crap for ear. But my name at your name dot com sounds like a terrible email address. I'm sure I'll be able to figure out getting my own domain.

''{Zooms in on Strong Bad and The Cheat as they start walking to the left.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Come on, The Cheat. Let's walk over here a few feet and steal Homestar's computer.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Umm... that's my old one. It barely works. I'd be surprised if you could check more than forty emails on it.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ohh, you can't fool me. This thing's top of the line! It's got ''two'' contrast knobs! ''{grabs the [[Tandy 400]] out of the trash can}'' Let's go start answering fan mail in humorous fashion. Nobody's ever done that before!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks for taking my garbage out, guys! Come back and do the dishes if you want!

''{The screen shifts quickly over to Strong Sad, where he's still standing.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{angrily}'' Please, leave.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Awwwww... ''{walks off-screen sideways}''

''{Cuts back to a close-up of Homestar as music starts to play.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' So there you have it, Johnny! I talked about some of my favo drinks ''{holds up the various Melonade cans}'' just like you asked. I'll tell you about my non-Melonade favorite drinks in March of 2003, when my contract expires ''{holds up some stapled papers labeled 'The "Deal"'}''. Now I have to go make me a sweet-bath.

''{Zooms out as Homestar Runner walks offscreen.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing}'' a-Gonna take a bath in some Melonade... oh it kinda stings my skin...

''{The words "The End" slide down.}''

==Easter Eggs==
*Click on the 'D' at the end to watch Strong Bad's first encounter with the Tandy 400.
*:''{Strong Bad and The Cheat both look at the Tandy 400's blank screen.}''
*:'''STRONG BAD:''' So, are these green lines the emails from my fans or what?
*:'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''
*:''{zooms out to show the whole room.}''
*:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{waving arms frantically}'' I have to type something?? I thought this was a computer! ''{holding up his right arm}'' How am ''I'' supposed to type with—
*:'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{cuts him off, making exclamatory The Cheat noises}''
*:'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, yeah... smart thinking! Now go call Abdi and make him send me some fanmail!
*:''{The Cheat jumps off the stool and walks off.}''

==Fun Facts==
===Remarks===
*Clicking the contrast knobs on the [[Tandy 400]] has no effect.
**They can also be clicked through The Cheat's head in the Easter egg, but still have no effect.
*The short uses the old loading screen.
*The short says it is from 2001, but is listed as 2009 in the [[New Stuff]] menu.
*Although there were 40 "Tandy Era" emails, only 39 emails were actually answered on the Tandy. [[the bird]] and [[weird dream]] were answered using Pom Pom's Pom-Pilot and The Cheat's computer, respectively. Strong Bad replaced Tandy with the [[Compy 386]] in [[invisibility]], the 41st email. Finally, Strong Bad answered one last email on the Tandy in [[retirement]] (in 2006).
*Aside from Homestar's voice, the voices in the toon do not match the voices each character had in 2001, but rather are the voices they had at the time this toon was released.
*The Athletic Berry Blast, Butt 1 Flavor, and Sizzlin' Bacon Guava Quench cans have no mention of being or containing Melonade on them.
*Though he's not seen with it, Homestar ''was'' mentioned to have [[Mountain Dew]] in [[techno]], before the March 2003 contract expired.
*In [[email thunder]], Homestar having his own email show seemed to be a surprise to Strong Bad, but if he started his own email show after seeing Homestar's in progress as implied here, he shouldn't have been surprised when he found out about [[hremails]] in email thunder.
*In this email, Homestar has a lip-sync graphic for the [[Wikipedia:Voiceless labiodental fricative|'f' sound]], which his modern counterpart lacks.
*The Tandy appears to be on even though it isn't plugged in. This is not the first time this has occurred however, in email 41 [[invisibility]] in the easter egg, the Tandy 400 is sitting in a trash can, it's power cable clearly visible and not plugged in while messages are displayed on the screen.
*This toon conflicts with the continuity in [[candy product]]. During one scene, Strong Bad is adjusting the date of the [[Tandy 400]] on the last day of 1999. But according to Hremail #7, Strong Bad acquired the Tandy in 2001.
**However, it should be pointed out that this scene forms part of a commercial for Strong Bad's [[SBLOUNSKCHED! Bar]], which wasn't invented until 2006. Furthermore, Strong Bad is seen holding the candy bar, implying that although this scene is set in 1999, it was actually recreated in the year 2006.
**Strong Bad was also seen with the Tandy in the email [[no loafing]], in the year [[1987]].
**Strong Bad's very first email was shown on a laserdisc in [[lady...ing]], which the character designs were from [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]], which was released in 1999.
*Strong Bad had trouble saying the word "e-mail" in Hremail #7 and seemed ignorant of the Internet. But in [[looking old]], Strong Bad talked about "eStrong Vague Online Investments" that was sold in the late 1990s.
*Homestar Runner was unable to recognize a computer in [[50 emails]], despite Hremail 7 implying he understood technology in 2001.


===Goofs===
*Each of the characters in this toon are revisions from 2000, and each had a newer version before 2001, when this toon says it was made.
*When Homestar says, "Some of my favo flavors include:" The beginning of the sound clip is slightly cut off.
*The wrong [[font]] was used for the word "contrast" on the Tandy; it should be Tw Cen MT, but Arial was used instead.
*At the end, there is a small red mark beneath the 'D' in 'End'.

===Inside References===
*Homestar talks about [[Melonade]]. One of the flavors is [[smoking|Butt 1]].
*Strong Bad refers to Homestar with the phrases "[[crap]] for ear" and "crap for nose", even though [[Lack of Visible Body Parts|he does not have a visible ear or nose]].
**The intent is similar to when Strong Bad refers to someone as "crap [[for brains]]".
*In the Easter egg, Strong Bad instructs The Cheat to call up [[Abdi]], the sender of [[some kinda robot|the first Strong Bad Email]].
*In the Easter egg, [[The Cheat]] apparently tells Strong Bad [[How Do You Type With Boxing Gloves On?|how to type with boxing gloves on]].
*Strong Bad provides an explanation of why he never obtained his own domain name in [[April Fool 09]].
*Strong Bad's comments about answering emails from fans in humorous fashion mirrors [[email thunder]], where Homestar Runner states that he "answers emails from fans with humorous results".
*Homestar greets "everybody everybody", a reference to the [[Intro]].
*The fact that Homestar says "That's good stuff" even when he obviously seems to be in distress reflects a similar scene in [[environment]].

===Real-World References===
*Many athletes endorse a brand of sports drink, or other product, and are usually seen only with that product, as it is a contractual obligation of them to do so.
*The Melonade flavor ''Taco Annihilation'' could be a reference to the 1997 PC game [[Wikipedia:Total Annihilation|Total Annihilation]].
*The flavor ''Sizzlin' Bacon Guava Quench'' may be a reference to a [http://www.myspace.com/dietcokewithbacon 2006 April Fool's joke], which included a phony press release for a new bacon-flavored [[wikipedia:Diet Coke|Diet Coke]].
*Homestar's phrase "Apply directly to the esophagus" is a play on the slogan "Apply directly to the forehead" for the product [[Wikipedia:HeadOn|HeadOn]].
*When Homestar sings that he's going to take a [[Melonade]] bath, the melody he uses is the same as the Post "[[Wikipedia:Golden_Crisp|Golden Crisp]]" Cereal jingle (i.e.: "Can't get enough of that Golden Crisp; it's got the crunch with punch!").

'''Page Title:''' Lappy 486

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:'''
I had to pay my doctor just to have this email removed. A-so smooth.

<blockquote class="lappy email">
<div>subject: being nice</div>
Dear Strong Bad, 
I know you think being mean is fun, but I'm trying to teach 
my kids that that isn't right. Can you say something about 
being nice and point out why being mean isn't always the 
best choice. Thanks! 
-Nice Dad</blockquote>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' You're coming to ''me'' for nice lessons? You expect ''me'' to tell your wussy kids that being mean isn't the best choice? I wonder what other gems are in your sent mail outbox.

''{Strong bad types in other_gems.exe, bringing up another email, accompanied by a ding.}''

<blockquote class="lappy email">
<div>subject: chum</div>
Dear Hungry Shark, 
I'm trying to teach my wounded, bleeding sea lions that 
tearing other creatures apart is not the answer, and I 
immediately thought of you!! 
Your Pal, 
Nice Dad</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad picks up a drawing of a bloody-toothed shark at a laptop with the caption "HUNGRY SHARK EMAiLS" when he says "thought of you."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And there's probably one like...

''{Strong Bad types more_other_gems.exe as he says this, bringing up a third email.}''

<blockquote class="lappy email">
<div>subject: role model</div>
Hey 42 year-old online game playing man-child that still lives with his ex-wife's parents, 
It's me, Nice Dad! The boys need a lesson about 
responsibility and personal hygiene. Got time to stop by tonight 
between Goblin Keep Sieges? 
-N.D.</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad picks up a drawing of a goblin with the caption "GOBLiN KEEP SiEGE" when he says "Goblin Keep Sieges."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' The only time I know of when being mean isn't the best choice is when someone nearby is holding a ''really'' tall ice cream cone.

''{Cut to the Field. Homestar has an ice cream cone that towers above the top of the screen. Ice cream truck music plays in the background.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey wow, Homestar. That's a great same-shirt-you-always-wear you have on today.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks, Strong Bad. Did you want some of my...

''{Strong Bad approaches him and kicks him in the leg, sending the ice cream cone flying and landing on his face in pieces.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' OW!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Wahahahaha!

''{Homestar starts to lick the ice cream again. Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Oh, wait. Being mean is the best choice there too. Look, this is clearly not a job for me Nice Dad (translation: Uncool Dad). When it comes to teaching kids about behavior and choices and various other words from parenting books, there's only one place to look for answers, the Drama Club!

''{Cut to the King of Town in the Classroom. The camera "rotates" around him until it faces him straight-on.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Listen up, class. Instead of watching me doze off for the last ten minutes like we usually do, I've got a special treat for you all today. The drama club is going to perform a state-required skit about being nice, so we can avoid losing our accreditation! Now, give it up... for Coach Z's Nicetown Players!

''{Cut to the side of the room. The lights dim as Coach Z, Marzipan, and Strong Mad enter. They get into various still poses. A couple claps are heard.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{offscreen}'' You suck.

''{Slow music begins to play. A spotlight goes up on Coach Z.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Oh, man. What a great pratty. I wonder what kid's house this is.

''{The spotlight goes out, and another one comes up on Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' I wonder if he likes me. Will I make the team? I wish my parents would stop fighting.

''{The spotlight goes out, and a third comes up on Strong Mad.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' IS THIS MY CUE?

''{The lights go up. Zoom in on Coach Z.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Hey, Pants Pull-Upper! Nice pulled-up... pants!

''{Camera Pans right to Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' I shouldn't laugh, but I want to fit in. Good one, Head Male Cheerleader!

''{Zoom out showing all three. Strong Mad runs away.}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' BOO-HOO-HOO-HOO...

''{Close-up of Coach Z and Marzipan. Coach Z moves closer to Marzipan as she leans away from him.}''

'''COACH Z:''' My parents' room is out of town in my car. Wanna go park out?

'''MARZIPAN:''' But what about that poor nerd?

'''COACH Z:''' Ah, who cares about...

''{Wide shot of original stage area. Strong Mad runs in brandishing a baseball bat with spikes on the end. Marzipan screams. He swings it at Coach Z and then they all freeze. Marzipan comes forward as the lights dim. Strong Mad taps Coach Z with the bat, laughing while Coach Z says "Ow." "Stop." "Quit it.", while she speaks.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' This is why be'sing mean is not always the best choice.

'''COACH Z:''' Drap it! ''{A rap beat begins to play.}'' Now being mean ain't the greatest choice! My name's Coach Z and I—

''{The King of Town appears in front of him.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Aaaand we've run out of time.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{offscreen}'' You suck.

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' See how lame that was Nice Dad? I'm sure your kids could learn all sorts of crap-kicked-out-of-them lessons from superbly acted dramatizations like that. But don't take it from me, let's hear from our resident parenting expert, Hungry Shark.

''{He holds up the Hungry Shark Emails picture again.}''

'''HUNGRY SHARK:''' Sometimes the taste of blood in the water is just so sweet, makes me wanna... I just gon... uh, I'm gonna eat your kids.

''{[[New Paper]] comes down. Strong Bad moves the picture out of its way.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*When the King of Town is in the middle of the screen, click on the right-hand side of the chalkboard to change the image. It switches between an image of a [[gun]] shooting the King labeled "BANG" and a blob on the other side of him labeled "[[BRAINS]]", an Olympic stadium with a torch bearer setting the King's head ablaze, striped horns on the King's head labeled "[[croissants]]?", a [[bear]] with the King's crown as its lower jaw, ice cream in the King's crown labeled "ice cream 99¢", and a spear impaling the King labeled "THUCK!"
*After the paper comes down, click on the logo on Hungry Shark's computer to hear the rest of Coach Z's rap song. The scene cuts to an album cover labeled "COACH Z GETS NOICE!" with an insert that says "Learn all sorts of crap-kicked-out-of-you lessons!" and shows Coach Z holding a large Ice Cream cone like Homestar.
:'''COACH Z:''' Drap it! ''{The rap beat begins to play.}'' Now being mean ain't the greatest choice! My name's Coach Z and I likes to get noice! If you don't believe me, listen to my voice; I'll tell ya why being ''nice'' is the greatest choice!

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
*This email is listed as "being mean" in the Strong Bad Email menu, but "being nice" in the [[TV Time Toons Menu|Toons menu]].

===Remarks===
*[[Strong Bad Smiling|Strong Bad smiles]] while talking to Homestar, [[Strong Mad Smiling|as does Strong Mad]] in the being nice act.

===Goofs===
* When clubbed on the head by Strong Mad, Coach Z's arms are briefly separated at the elbow.

===Inside References===
*The music that plays during the ice cream cone scene is the music from [[Bubs]]' [[Baloney Sammich truck]].
*Marzipan mentions the word "[[Be's|be's]]", in the same way as Homestar in [[candy product]].
*The croissant-like horns in the King of Town Easter egg are a reference to [[3 Wishes]].
*This is another instance of [[blood]].
*This email features a case of [[Lowercase i's]] in place of Regular I's in the case of "HUNGRY SHARK eMAiLS" and "GOBLiN KeeP SieGeS". 
*Coach Z saying "Drap it!" before his rap song is a reference to [[your funeral]].
*The first eight beats of Coach Z's rap song are the same played after the first three lines of [[These peoples try to fade me]].

===Real-World References===
* The bad acting presentation and Coach Z's rap song parody after-school good-behavior shorts from the early '90s, such as [[Wikipedia:Don't Copy That Floppy|Don't Copy That Floppy]].

'''Everybody Knows It''' is the seventh and final installment of Puppet Jam with [[They Might Be Giants]].

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' John "flans" Flansburgh on guitar, John "linnell" Linnell on accordion, Marty "marty" Beller on skins, Puppet [[Homestar Runner|Homestar "homeslice" Runner]] on vox

==Transcript==

'''FLANSBURGH:''' ''{talking to Linnell}'' So, let's do it four times, then go up an chord, then four times and back down. So it goes 'round and round, and then we go back down.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{says at the same time as Flansburgh, after he says "'Round and round"}'' 'Round and round. ''{singing}'' 'Round and round, with love we'll find a way...

'''LINNELL:''' Ok, I'll just follow you.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing}'' Everybody knows it 
Everybody knows it 
Everybody knows it's true. 
Oh yeah. 
And work out twice a day.

''{Homestar pauses, and Flansburgh stops to play, while Linnell continues.}''

'''FLANSBURGH:''' ''{laughs}'' I feel like I was offset by, like, one beat.

'''LINNELL:''' Yeah, me too.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah. Me too. I was followin' ''your'' lead. And we were both off together. Yeah.

'''FLANSBURGH:''' Here we go, one more time!

'''LINNELL:''' This is gonna be the one.

''{starts to play}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing}'' Everybody knows it 
Everybody knows it 
Everybody knows it's true. 
Oh yeah. 
And work out twice a day. 
Don't ask me why I said it, 
'Cause I already forgot.

''{Flansburgh and Linnell speed up gradually}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing}'' I ALREADY FORGOT! I ALREADY FORGOT! 
I can't remember yesterday, 
I only remember Steve! 
I can't remember Steve now! 
''{Stops singing, and TMBG stops playing}'' Now I remember... April! Not a girl, the month! April! 
I always talk over the end. Does that ruin them?

'''LINNELL:''' No, that was the keeper.

'''FLANSBURGH:''' I think our job is done here.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah man, we recorded some solid hits! ''{"High fives" the Johns, by just moving closer. A high-five sound is heard}'' Put 'em on wax! Oh! Call the union! Call the Orkin army.

'''LINNELL:''' Textile union, local 802.

'''FLANSBURGH:''' All right, so uh...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks guys. Thanks for coming to my studio. ''{shifts right to see Matt holding the Homestar puppet. Marty Beller gets up and walks over to Homestar}''

'''LINNELL:''' ''{laughs}''

'''BELLER:''' You've got quite a nice hat.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' No, not anymore, it broke on the plane. ''{Beller attempts to spin the propeller, but it doesn't.}''

'''LINNELL:''' Awww...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...so this one's made of posterboard. It's supposed to be plastic.

'''LINNELL:''' Bummer.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah. It's my buzzer. Usually I ask people to spin my buzzer. ''{camera starts to shift left, and Flansburgh is seen walking over to Matt and rolling his sleeves up. The camera starts to fade to black.}'' It's like, it's like telling them to sit on it. ''{fades out}'' I'm like, SPIN MY BUZZER! It's how I mouth off.

'''LINNELL:''' Does Homestar go in the luggage?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I do. I've been in a duffel bag all morning.

'''FLANBURGH:''' That's your signature uh...

''{Cut to the end paper.}''

== Fun Facts ==
=== Trivia ===
*This is the only [[Puppet Stuff]] cartoon where you can see Matt Chapman.

=== Remarks ===
*Homestar speaking after the screen fades out references the end of the song, where he says he likes "to talk over the end".
*Judging by what Homestar and TMBG say, this is probably the last song of the whole recording session.

=== Real World References ===
* The song Homestar starts singing after Flansburgh says "round and round" is [[Wikipedia:Round And Round (Ratt Song)|Round And Round]] by 80s glam-metal band [[Wikipedia:Ratt|Ratt]]

== Easter Eggs ==

*You can click on "Directed by Strong Sad & The Cheat" before the video starts to get a commentary by Homestar Runner characters.

===Commentary Transcript===

('''Commentary by:''' [[Strong Sad]], [[The Cheat]], [[Strong Bad]], [[Homestar Runner]])

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, hello, this is Strong Sad...

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' ...and we're the co-directors of this video.

'''THE CHEAT:''' Meh!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, so my portion of this video details the life of a very lonely individual named Rondell who can't deal with the decisions of day-to-day life.

'''STRONG BAD:''' We interrupt this whining to bring you this important headline: "World bored to death by Strong Sad commentary."

'''STRONG SAD:''' Agh, what are you doing here? You're hardly even in this video!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, well, I woulda been the one directing it if weren't for those Super Giant guys.

'''STRONG SAD:''' That's not what they're called.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whatever they're called, that one right there with the glasses, he started talking all these vocabulary words at me and confusin' me and the next thing I know, I was relegated to this crappy bit part. ''{Referring to the top of two heads (one is wearing glasses, likely They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh)}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Hey, "relegated" sounds like a vocabulary word.

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'll relegate your face to a...bloody pulp!

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{Coffee was being hit with a drumstick}'' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, that part represented hitting coffee with a drumstick. Okay.

[[Image:gracious.png|thumb|"Aah! More like our 'I'll murder you in a back alley' host."]]
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{upon seeing a picture captioned "our gracious host"}'' Aah! More like our "I'll murder you in a back alley" host.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, so this next part ''{referring to tiny The Cheats erupting from cracks in Rondell's hands}'' is an allusion to one of my very favorite experimental films called--

'''STRONG BAD:''' Boring Johnny and the Get Bored Crew.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{exasperated}'' Would you quit it with the "boring" comments?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Look, if it weren't for that tentacle skull riding the old-timey bike, this video would have nothin'!

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, yeah, the first question on that pop quiz was, "Are you all going to be in my experimental film?" ''{Referring to Pop Quiz in clip}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{the tentacle skull is seen in ink on lined paper}'' Oh, look, there he is! Keep on old-timey bikin', tentacle-skull. ''{Gavin is seen}'' Hey, is that Gavin? I didn't know he was in this video. He's got, like, as much screen time as I do!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey guys, is this the Super Giants video?

'''STRONG SAD:''' That's not what they're—

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yes. But they cut us out of it.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, weird—then why'd they bother getting somebody who looks just like me? ''{Seeing himself in the clip}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' No, that is you, I just mean they mostly—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{Seeing Strong Bad and Strong Mad in the clip}'' And that guy looks just like you! And that big guy ''{referring to Strong Mad}'' looks just like Coach Z!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Now this part accurately represents what it feels like to watch this video. ''{Ticking clock shown}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{exasperated}'' Ohhh! This next part ''{the film shows Rondell's face, then begins to shake, and the image disappears as if burning, revealing animated Rondell}'' is all about Rondell's transformation into a new man.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I thought you said that was just an accident that happened because you loaded the film wrong.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{embarrassed}'' Uhh, why don't you shut up, Homestar?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I dunno... 'cause I guess I got a lot of stuff to say.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{when he, Strong Mad and Homestar are seen dancing}'' Check out my dance! Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! ''{The Cheat joins in}'' Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! ''{Homestar joins in}'' Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ahhh, this is the worst commentary ever!

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's what I've been saying this whole time!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, me too. Worst... commissary... ever.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{during the portion where components of the film are seen pogoing}'' At this point reality and fantasy have collided and everybody... pogos.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{as an animated Rondell walks up to an animated ATM}'' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{angry}'' What do you mean you tried to be as dumpy-accurate as possible?

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as Strong Bad is seen dancing, with the words "Real Smooth Moves" is seen above him}'' Let's talk about how "Real Smooth Moves" is like the best band name ever. The old Supreme Giants boys could take a cue from that one.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{as a muffin on a table is seen}'' I'm gonna take a cue from that kitchen table and go get me a blueb'ry muffin!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ohh, what a disaster. I hope I still get paid.

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*This toon was made for the second single from They Might Be Giants' tenth studio album ''[[TMBW:The Spine|The Spine]]''. The song is called [[TMBW:Experimental Film|Experimental Film]].
*The two head-tops belong to They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh and John Linnell. The one on the left is Flansburgh, as he has black hair and wears glasses, and the one on the right is Linnell.
*The answers for the "pop quiz" refer to the [[Wikipedia:Cotton gin|cotton gin]], an invention that revolutionized the cotton-growing industry; [[Wikipedia:Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia|Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia]], a town famous as the location where the [[Wikipedia:American Civil War|American Civil War]] ended; and the former all-time career record for home runs in [[Wikipedia:Major League Baseball|Major League Baseball]] (755), set by baseball player [[Wikipedia:Hank Aaron|Hank Aaron]]. [[Wikipedia:Barry Bonds|Barry Bonds]] recently broke Aaron's record. The first question was "Are you all going to be in my experimental film?"
*The Tentacle-Skull can be seen riding a [[Wikipedia:Penny-farthing|penny-farthing]] bicycle.

===Trivia===
*This toon was originally posted on [[The Brothers Chaps]]' other domain, [[Thorax:|thoraxcorp.com]], but was quickly taken down.
*This toon was released at approximately midnight, Atlanta time, on 13 July 2004—the release date of ''The Spine''.
*The joystick Homestar is using is for an [[Atari 2600]].
*According to [http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.07/play.html this Wired interview], TMBG were going to make a separate video for the [[Wikipedia:MTV|MTV]] crowd. Choice quote: "I feel like if MTV and Homestar collided, the world might explode." However, the H*R music video ''did'' air on MTV.
*This is the only Homestar Runner cartoon to ever be aired in full on television.
*Despite "resolving not to feel so bad about wanting to hit Homestar so much" (see [[Strong Sad's Lament]]), the commentary shows the first time that Strong Sad has stood up to Homestar. As expected, Homestar doesn't take him very seriously.
*The first frame of the actual song is labeled "[[Glossary#V|viderostart]]" internally (this label is used by the commentary scripts).

===Remarks===
*The first line of the song is "The color of infinity inside an empty glass." Strong Sad's glass is full.
*Even though Strong Sad says he can't jump in his blog, he jumps both here and in [[A Jumping Jack Contest]].
*For the shot of Strong Sad pointing the camera in the mirror at an angle to be possible, the view would have to be from a second camera filming this, or involve additional mirrors.
*In the commentary, Strong Bad comments that Gavin got as much screen time as he did, but in fact, Strong Bad has about 10 seconds of screen time, versus Gavin's 3 seconds.
*During what Strong Sad refers to in the commentary as "Rondell's transformation into a new man," [[Powered by The Cheat]] Strong Sad can be seen [[Strong Sad Smiling|smiling]].
*The clock has six seconds between the three and the four.
**This adds to Strong Bad's argument during the commentary that "this part accurately represents what it feels like to watch this video."

===Goofs===
[[Image:Homestarslegunattached.PNG|200px|thumb|Leg?]]
*When you click "Directed by Strong Sad and The Cheat" at the beginning for the commentary, it plays the normal video without commentary for a few seconds. It then goes back to the beginning and does the commentary.
*The first time the crowd uses the cards to make a picture of the Coffee Cup, at the bottom right corner on the second square up, the rim of the cup is yellow instead of white like the rest of the cup.
*As Homestar prepares to run away from Strong Sad, if you look closely, you can see that his leg is disconnected from his body.

===Glitches===
*Occasionally, the commentary will stop after about half of Strong Bad's first line, while the rest of the music in the background stays quieted. This continues throughout the entire cartoon.

===Inside References===
*When "It's a lion!" pops up for the first time, the lion is wearing Homestar's hat.
*Just before Homestar appears, the crowd flips the cards to a picture of an olive on a toothpick. This was the eye from the [[Homestar Jr.]] in [[Where's The Cheat?]]
*When the people in the grandstands flip the scenery cards to the mountain scene, it slightly resembles [[Main Page 2]].
*"Our gracious host" bears a striking resemblance to [[Monte Negro]] in [[Malloween Commercial]].
*Strong Sad, Strong Bad, and Homestar proclaim that this is the [[Best/Worst X Ever|worst commentary ever]].

====They Might Be Giants References====
*United States presidents are [[TMBW:Presidents|a common theme]] in TMBG's work; they have no fewer than five songs about U.S. presidents and frequently mention presidents in songs and on stage. Their [http://www.tmbg.com/froMain.html website] is also presidentially themed.
*Skulls (e.g. the Tentacle Skull seen riding the bicycle) are another [[TMBW:Skulls|frequent TMBG theme]]. In addition to being mentioned in several of their songs, it appears on the cover of their ''[[TMBW:Back To Skull|Back to Skull]]'' EP and on the back of their ''[[TMBW:John Henry|John Henry]]'' album. The skull might also be the [[TMBW:Skullivan|Skullivan]], as mentioned in the companion EP for ''The Spine'', ''[[TMBW:The Spine Surfs Alone (EP)|The Spine Surfs Alone]]''.
*[[TMBW:Coffee|Coffee]] is yet another common theme in the work of TMBG. The earliest videos and promotional matierials from the '80s show TMBG with cups of coffee. In the film ''[[TMBW:Gigantic|Gigantic]]'', TMBG confesses that they are insanely dependent on coffee.
*In the commentary, both Strong Bad and Homestar get TMBG's name totally wrong (both "Super Giants" and "Supreme Giants" are mentioned). This is, of course, [[TMBW:Monikers|not the first time this has happened]]. In fact, one of their early EPs included [[TMBW:Untitled|an answering machine message]] in which two people discuss "There Must Be Giants" and "There May Be Giants" and appear to be confused about the whole experience.
*The finger that comes up at one point might be a reference to the thumb on the cover of TMBG's [[TMBW:Dial-A-Song - 20 Years Of They Might Be Giants|"Dial-a-Song" album]], or perhaps the close-up of a cartoon finger pressing an elevator button in the video for "[[TMBW:(She Was A) Hotel Detective|(She Was a) Hotel Detective]]".
*This is not the first time TMBG have worked with Flash accompaniment. Their children's album, "No!" (2002) was an enhanced CD, with 13 of the 17 songs having Flash animation complementing the music.
*Strong Sad falling through the spiral of presidents could be a poke at the lyrics in [[TMBW:Spiraling Shape|Spiraling Shape]]. Example: ''"...And clawing at nothing you drop through the void..."''
*The "forest and mountains" backdrop in this toon was also used in TMBG's music video for [[Wikipedia:Birdhouse in your Soul|Birdhouse in your Soul]].
*In the commentary, Strong Bad reveals how "the one in the glasses" confused him with large vocabulary words. John Flansburgh is notorious for having a large vocabulary.

===Real-World References===
*The page title is a reference to a stand-up cliché of beginning jokes with the line "so a guy walks into a bar..."
*Strong Sad meeting the [[Grim Reaper]] through split screens is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Ingmar Bergman|Ingmar Bergman's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0050976|The Seventh Seal]]''.
*The scene with the film apparently burning (the one that Homestar credits to Strong Sad loading the film wrong) is a reference to Bergman's ''[[Wikipedia:Persona (film)|Persona]]''.
*Much of the imagery, and especially the scenes of Strong Sad watching film sprocket holds go by, is likely a reference to one of the first great experimental films, ''[[IMDB:tt0019760|The Man with a Movie Camera]]'' by [[Wikipedia:Dziga Vertov|Dziga Vertov]], which has a section in which the sides of the film are exposed, and the characters look outside their own frame/world at the holes running by.
*Ants (actually little The Cheats) crawling out of holes in Strong Sad's hands is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Luis Buñuel|Luis Buñuel's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0020530| Un Chien Andalou]]'' ("An Andalusian Dog") co-directed by famous surrealist painter [[Wikipedia:Salvador Dalí|Salvador Dalí]].
*Strong Sad shaving himself is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Jørgen Leth|Jørgen Leth's]] short film ''[[IMDB:tt0376821| Det perfekte menneske]]'' ("The Perfect Human").
*In the commentary, Strong Bad interrupts Strong Sad with the phrase "Boring Johnny and the Get Bored Crew". This is most likely a reference to the hip hop group "[[Wikipedia:Doug E. Fresh|Doug E. Fresh]] And The Get Fresh Crew".
*Homestar can be found playing a game much like ''[[Wikipedia:Space Invaders|Space Invaders]]'', only with presidents instead of aliens, as well as a dollar sign instead of a tank.
*The swinging lightbulb is from the famous penultimate scene in [[Wikipedia:Alfred Hitchcock|Hitchcock's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0054215|Psycho]]'', where Vera Miles finds Norman Bates' partially-preserved dead mother in the fruit cellar. The oscillating shadows that result are re-created in various places in the video/animation.
*Another Hitchcock film nod is made to ''[[IMDB:tt0052357|Vertigo]]'', when Strong Sad falls out of the film and into a descending spiral of presidential faces.
*When Homestar is agreeing with Strong Bad, he says "Worst commissary ever." A [[Wikipedia:Commissary|Commissary]] is a name used for a cafeteria located at a film studio.

===Fast Forward===
*Strong Sad is seen in the Grim Reaper costume again in [[trading cards]].

==DVD Version==
*The DVD version features two commentaries by Strong Sad, The Cheat, Strong Bad, and Homestar Runner. The first is available on the website and is transcribed above. The second is transcribed below. To access them, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

===Commentary Transcript===

('''Commentary by:''' [[Strong Sad]], [[The Cheat]], [[Strong Bad]], [[Homestar Runner]])

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, hello. This is Strong Sad.

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' And that's The Cheat, and we're gonna talk about this video. Oh, geez, it's already started. So the guys approached me to do a video for "Experimental Film", so I shot my own experimental film but the, uh, the glasses guy said that it was too much of a total drag, so they brought The Cheat on board to, as they said, "make it quit sucking," which I guess is an industry term, I dunno...

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, The Cheat wants you to know that he did this part. I think they probably figured that out. ''{The images of John Flansburgh and John Linnell's heads appear.}'' There he is! That glasses guy. You really dig those extreme climates, huh? The desert, the arctic, ''{As this is said, the scene shifts to the arctic.}'' football stadiums... So this scene is dealing with man's indecision and apathy.

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, that scene was dealing with hitting coffee with a drumstick, eh?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{"Our Gracious Host" appears.}'' Okay, The Cheat, come clean. Who is that creepy guy in the picture frame?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Who's Stephan?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, I can see he's "Our gracious host"! But what does he have to do with anything?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, whatever keeps you off the streets. ''{The Pop Quiz appears.}'' Let's see, those questions were, "How many home runs did Hank Aaron have?", "Where did Lee surrender to Grant?", "What did Eli Whitney invent?", and "Are you going to be in my experimental film?" What class is that for?!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, hello there, chumps!

'''STRONG SAD:''' What are you guys doing here?!

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm here to save this commentary from a death worse than... Strong Sad commentary.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' And I'm just here ridin' all y'all's coat tails.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, maybe you could tell me how you got that video game to come up on the ATM!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Maybe I'm some type of magic video game man. Maybe you should start dealing with that, Strong Sad.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Man, I wish I grabbed some of that black-and-white cash!

'''STRONG SAD:''' That was Monopoly money!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, but, I'm gonna... ''{coughs}'' uh, sneeze. Yeah, black-and-white Monopoly money! That stuff is priceless! I'd be livin' on Baltic Avenue!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, this part's all about rebirth and new life...

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, yeah, whatever. This part comin' up here is all about my new dance, The Side-swipe! ''{The dancing scene with Homestar, Strong Bad, and Strong Mad appears.}'' Check it out! Mm! Ah! Ooh side-swipe!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Sad.

'''STRONG SAD:''' What?!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Sad.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''What?!''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Umm... it's a lion. ''{As he says this, "It's a lion" appears in the football stands.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{A somewhat lengthy set of The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah, that was very insightful, The Cheat!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Yeah, yeah, totally!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooh! Mulligatawny!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Can we talk about something artistic?

'''STRONG BAD:''' No, but we can talk about how "Real Smooth Moves" is, like, the best band name I ever heard. These Super Giant guys should change their name from "Super Giant" to "Real Smooth Moves." That's a band name!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, I'm outta here! Hope I still get paid!

== This is sad... ==

The Wiki is losing its need for editing, it is so sad. [[User:72.150.230.125|72.150.230.125]] 19:38, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
:What is that supposed to mean.--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 19:57, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
::Guess there's not much to do when there isn't a significant update.. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 20:02, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
:::Well, there's still things to be perfected. As long as H*R keeps producing cartoons, we'll still have work to do. Thus, the wiki will never lose its need for editing. And when there's not a significant edit, just make minor fixes to pages. After all, I know that we don't all have prefect grammar. :P — {{User: Seriously/sig}} 20:09, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
::::And there's always [[Sound Effects]] to add. That one's a perpetual stub. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
:I think that the sound effects will always be a stub.--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 20:32, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
::As long as things are produced, it will be... There's always a new sound effect to add, or an old one you just suddenly notice from re-watching an old toon. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

== Recent rollback ==
Actually, the last part of my edit summary didn't mean much. I merely reverted it because of its innapropriate language. — {{User: Seriously/sig}} 18:50, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

==IP change==
How does an Ip address change if you don't change computers?--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 20:15, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
:Well, it's your Internet Service Provider that is changing the IP for whatever reason, probably just by random assignments. Generally, you have no control over what your IP is. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 05:04, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
::Ok thanks, that really scared me for a while.--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 05:18, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

==Sysop nom.==
Why haven't we had a sysop nomination in a while?--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 20:38, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
:There hasn't been a need for large-scale nominations in the past year. Back in the day, things were a bit different. The need for sysops was great, and there were many qualified users. The admins of the time decided that nominations would be an appropriate format for deciding sysops. It was a good way for the community to find the cream of the crop. Nowadays, the need for new sysops is not as great. The cream of the crop is now easier to spot out of the crowd. That is why the last two rounds of sysop appointments have been decided by the bureaucrats. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 20:51, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
::Is that why. Ok.--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 21:00, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
:::Another question. Why aren't you a beaucrat? Your a great user.--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 14:40, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
::::<nowiki>*</nowiki>blush* Thanks. But other people have done so much more than me. And I'm content where I am; bureaucratship isn't my goal. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 14:46, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
:::::Ok. It just seems to me that your a really great user. Also, since your my favorite sysop of the week, I have to copy you in some way. And do you know something I could copy of yours?--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 14:49, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
::::::Then you should copy his good editing style, his strong contributions, his keen eye for problems with the recent changes, and his sharp decision-making skills. (Incidentally, the ''only'' extra powers a bureaucrat has is to assign user groups (e.g. make sysops) and rename users. We've pretty much got that covered for a while.) — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 15:01, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
:::::::And good grammer skills.--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 15:02, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
::::::::You can look through my proudest contributions on my user page for ideas. I'm not saying that writing a transcript is a high honor, though. It is to some, but being able to transcribe something new on the Homestar Runner website is a very rare opporitunity, and I don't try too hard to do so. There are many things that you can do on the site that you don't have to wait for or compete for. DVD transcripts I like writing more, as you can see. However, I think the thing I enjoy doing most is all-around maintenance of the site. Patrolling recent changes, reverting trolls and vandals (which are much more abundant during the summer), perfecting pages [[Wikipedia:Obsessive-compulsive disorder|mild OCD style]], double-checking transcripts (I often call those last two "fix-ups" in my edit summaries). But everybody has different styles. Find something you are good at doing and like doing, and find ways to get it done. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 15:18, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

::It looks like a good start. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 14:25, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
:::Is it indanger of being deleted or close to it?--[[User:H*Bad|H*Bad]] 14:27, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
::::It could be. Depends on if you can get enough appearances to convince us that it's a running gag. Then, it's up to the community. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 14:29, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
:::::I have seen this one that was like just one appearance. Which reminds me to put the stub tag on it.--[[User:H*Bad|H*Bad]] 14:30, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

== "Strong" Vandalism? ==

Hi Joe. Why did you revert my edit on Strong's talk page, where I criticized his behavior? When I see someone create a user account and immediately start vandalizing user pages, I see a troll, and I thought trolls were universally dealt with as such. Am I wrong in thinking that? {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 14:17, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
: You should save the debate for my talk page; he doesn't need to see something like that on his talk page. I'm just trying something a little different. Because he says he wants to be blocked, I am not going to, but I want to show him that there are better things to do on this wiki. If it doesn't work out, then, that's that. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 14:18, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
::Eh, personally, I'd just have canned him anyway. Someone who's deliberately vying for that sort of attention doesn't want (or deserve) to be reasoned with. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 14:22, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
:::Maybe so, but there's always that chance that trying will affect his character. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 14:23, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

== Sorry ==

sorry for my vandilism I will contribute from now on but can you give me a intro on this wiki you can leave me a message on my talk page. -- [[User:Strong|Strong]] 17:25, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

What is the watchlist for? What do you do with it? Thank You for all your help, -marzipan1
:The watchlist is the thing that gives you a listing of when and what pages have been changed. You can choose what pages you would like to watch by pressing on the "watch" button at the top of the page.

You made a list when I said "...as follows and I '''quote'''." on the page [[HRWiki:Featured Article Selection]] Did you notice that? {{User:Justin Master of Nature/sig}} 19:06, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
:Yeah, I noticed it. Did you not see how the spaces at the beginning of the lines were causing page format issues? My edit had the intent of fixing the formatting, and I saw the asterisks that you put in there, so I assumed that you wanted a bulleted list. How you made it look now is grood. I mean great.

Oh yeah. Makes good sense. You sysops have good minds to think things like these through :). But that doesn't mean we should capitalize all of the email titles, should we? {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 23:19, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
:I wouldn't mind doing so, but not everyone feels that way. So, we're keeping the lowercase email titles like we've always done it. But I'll fight to make sure people don't forget that we ''do'' have the option to capitalize email titles when it looks best (for example, at the beginning of a sentence in a FA write-up). I did realize that a capitalized [[Dragon]], while looking normal to the rest of the world, would confuse the people heavily involved in this wiki. So I italicized it to ''[[Dragon]]'' to subtly indicate that it is a cartoon title. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 07:42, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

==Reply==

''(concerning my content on an anonny talk:''

''"I would advise two other things. (1) Choose your battles. Getting heated over punctuation placement is a bit much, don't you think? (2) If you really care so much about the wiki's content, why not sign up for an account? - Qermaq - (T/C) 04:14, 22 January 2007 (UTC)")''

I'm perfectly aware of what an idiotic thing it looks like, but I am demonstrating that ''my'' edits are made by ''my'' grammar rules that are correct where ''I'm'' from, and I don't appreciate them being needlessly and pointlessly 'corrected'. I appreciate that as an American cartoon, American language/spelling is used, but grammar is such a longshot.

So, tell me more about what defines an account as caring about what goes in the wiki? --[[User:90.240.34.177|90.240.34.177]] 04:19, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

:Hi! As we are documenting an American cartoon, we've agreed to largely stick to American rules of grammar and spelling. This means we prefer "color" to "colour", and that we keep to US conventions in grammar. (Not that that's always cut and dried, you'll understand.) But, there's an unwritten rule that's as true here as it is in real life - if it's not terribly important, don't bother with it. If a change makes things clearer, go for it, but if it's six of one, a half dozen of another, no action is really needed.
:Re: having an account. Not that it's fair, but the reality is most users accord a bit more credibility to someone with an account, as they've made a modicum of a commitment to the wiki. Also, this enables you to have a user page and let us get to know you through it, and that's an important part of acting within a community. I encourage you to get an account and get involved, as it seems you are sincerely interested in bettering the wiki. If that's indeed your goal, I think you should! {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 04:26, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
::I'm sitting here chuckling because I'm having trouble making out exactly what you're trying to say. Cut and dried? Six of one, half dozen of another? What are you on about? Anyway, believe me, I looked at the style guide before I edited and it doesn't say anything about "US conventions"... but it does say that it's better to stick punctuation outside of the quotation mark than inside in cases like that, so I did. I'm also not really appreciating the way you're addressing me, as though I was the one being picky in the first place: if my edit had been left alone, I wouldn't have kicked up such a fuss. It's not like I go around moving full stops everywhere I see them.
::Not to sound harsh but I'd rather have nothing to do with the 'community'. Fans scare me. The fact I'm already being referred to as an 'anonny', which I believe is a reference in itself, already has alienated me. And I don't like people that get too involved with wikis anyway. "I'm a vandal-fighter, look at my badges." Uh-huh, sure. --[[User:90.240.34.177|90.240.34.177]] 04:49, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

:::I assume that you are not American and my idioms confused you. I apologize for that. I do tend to talk very "American", and that might be unintelligible to others.

== Your recent comments ==

I didn't much appreciate the insulting comments you made about me in my recent challenge of the Stains on Head decline in [[Talk:KOT's VOQPCS!#Contesting of Stains on Head decline|KOT's VOQPCS!]]. I feel that I was being singled out by you because I didn't agree with your logic, and felt that you were more than a little rude and a jerk in your comments. I understand you didn't agree, but you didn't need to go the route you did. If you don't agree, fine. Don't make yourself seem like a superior being just because someone doesn't agree with you. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 16:23, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
:ISlayedTheKerrek: I personally think it was kind of rude to single Qermaq out as a so-called bad-faith voter when in fact he hadn't even voted. It seems that it really struck a chord with him and colored his response to you (which, though his tone of communication was clearly irritated that you hadn't done your homework, it was still somewhat modulated, methinks). — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:09, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
::Maybe so, but I did apologize for that, Dot Com. I thought I saw his name there when I wrote the comment, but after I rechecked I took it back. I screwed up, I said I was sorry. That's no excuse for what he did. (You'll have to excuse me if I misinterpreted what you were saying...not sure what "modulated," used in that context, means.) --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 05:34, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
:I find it odd that the person accusing me of behaving "like a superior being" began this whole affair by accusing fourteen users of voting in poor faith simply because the outcome of the STUFF vote went contrary to his wishes. While I found that tactic distasteful, I replied with what I felt was a fair and explanatory message as to why a majority of people seemed to find the fact unacceptable. I was met with a response which, in my opinion, fell just short of personal attack. Yes, I was upset about that, and I cannot apologize for that. I took exceedingly great care in crafting a post which expressed my reaction in clear and elevated language. In that sense, I suppose my message was modulated. Nonetheless, I hope you understand that when statements along the lines of "fourteen people voted a particular way for a dumb reason" are made, they are likely to be met with responses which might not be anywhere as civil as mine were. I feel, as I did then, that your reasoning was faulty, your post was made without reference to fact, and that your proposal to cancel a fair and compliant STUFF vote was in poor judgement of what's best for the wiki. That's why I attempted to explain the likeliest reasong for these voters' rejection of the proposed Fun Fact. Also, your second post seemed to ignore points I had made in my initial reply, simply reinforcing your message that the fourteen voters were obviously not acting in good faith, even after I showed how I felt they were.

:Now, while I intended to express my feelings of exasperation and insult, I never intended to express arrogance or to offend, and if my post did elicit those reactions, I am of course sorry. But please realize that all the users here are humans, and humans are prone to emotion and are apt to reply with those emotions undivorced from their message when they feel provoked. I believe that most of the time I am capable of responding to users with absolute modulation, and while I regret this was not one of those times, I still stand behind the statements I made in that talk. Unfortunately, there seems to be no common ground on this issue, so I ask that we leave it and continue our best efforts at civil cooperation in future encounters, so as to put this behind us. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 07:44, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

::Hey, I'm not saying that you didn't have a right to be insulted or, pardon my French here, pissed off at what I said. I do think that you did, in your response, were showing less of that and showing more of the arrogance and offensiveness that you mention. I do appreciate that you acknowledged that, and even though I also stand by most of what I said (except for the false accusation that you were one of the voters), I accept your apology. Hopefully there will be no more problems in the future. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 19:15, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

:::ISlayedTheKerrek, after reviewing both your and Qermaq's posts, I really don't know why ''you'' were offended by ''anything'' that Qermaq said. When it comes to "arrogance and offensiveness", you are the clear winner. I'm saying this because you just re-iterated your attack on Qermaq and re-confirmed that you stand by what you said earlier. I'm not impressed. To begin with, accusing STUFF voters (including myself) of making bad faith votes is a serious allegation, and I demand a retraction and an apology. Secondly, I wholeheartedly support Qermaq's last post. Please read it again, it is an excellent example of how to cooperate at this wiki instead fighting each other. You can and you should learn a lot from him.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 20:46, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

:Loafing, I read what he said, several times in fact. I did NOT reiterate my so-called "attack" (which was not an attack...if I was going to attack him I would have been a LOT more abusive than I might have been), all I said was that I do stand by most of what I said. I'm sorry if you were offended by anything I said, but I am not retracting what I said. I still believe coincidence and intent don't really have much to do with anything involved in the fun fact, just whether or not the fact was notable enough for inclusion. I'm sure none of us will say that it was the intent of the artists to make the stains look like a smiley face. What matters in the end is whether or not it's notable enough and not a stretch. Maybe "bad faith" was a little overzealous of me, and I do apologize for that, but I can disagree with the way the vote went, and I still do feel that way, even though I've withdrawn my challenge to said fun fact. I'm not going to suddenly change my opinions because you demand it. I already apologized for falsely accusing Qermaq of voting against the fact when in fact he didn't. I apologized for causing the trouble, and made the apology in good faith. I thought everything was settled and a truce existed, but apparently you don't believe so. You're making it seem like I go out on a regular basis to cause trouble on this wiki, and that couldn't be further from the truth. Yes, in the past I have done a few things that I probably shouldn't have, but most of the time I try and stay away from things like that. I understand you're a sysop, Loafing, and probably once you read that I didn't retract what I said that you're probably going to take away my editing privileges for an extended period of time. But if you are going to do that, know this: I don't go out of my way to cause trouble with votes (I may not like the way things go on certain ones, such as this, the "Seb" fact from [[mile]] and the little orphan Annie or Oliver one from whatever it was from...it escapes me that the exact moment, but this was my first time actually standing up and contesting it), I've been cooperative over my time here with nearly everything I've done, and even though I have had some minor spats and disagreements at times with some other members (which I have admittedly been wrong on several occasions), I respect everyone here and what is done here, and don't think that I should be labeled as uncooperative by anyone. In the future, I can say that I won't be as aggressive with the contesting as I was here (and I reiterate again that I'm sorry for wasting everyone's time with this whole bit), and that I will continue to be as cooperative as I have been in the past. But I do believe that it is my right to disagree with the way something goes, as I do in this case, and I can't retract what I said, outside of the words "bad faith", because that would imply that I agree, and I don't. If you still want to punish me, then so be it. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 05:12, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

== It's been a while ==

Regarding that thing I said about the opening credits for big toons, the reason I wanted to know was because that person drove away votes for "Where Credit Was Due" for an illegitimate reason. Also, he was dead wrong about the [[DNA Evidence|next big toon]] including opening credits. I also want to note that this is a very different case from "Evident STUFF" because looking old was the only 2007 email w/out DNA Evidence for 4 months, while SB is in jail is/was the last Big Toon with opening credits for '''3 years.''' I also want to know if that person thought I was talking about a different toon or if there actually is a chance of them coming back by the end of the decade. [[User:Bad Bad Guy|Bad Bad Guy]] 17:54, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
:Dude, I really think it's time to give this a rest. All anyone said on that stuff item was that there ''could'' be more eventually. At any rate, this item was declined 17 to 1. I really doubt all those people were driven away because someone wrote that there could be more toons (I suspect it has more to do with the argument "If it were the last toon ever that credited TBC and Missy, then maybe it would be notable, but Halloween '05 (which came later) gets that distinction to date.") In any case, I think the result of this vote is quite clear and that the community at large doesn't feel this is worth noting. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 18:21, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Why weekly featured articles instead of daily featured articles? We're supposed to feature every article on the site - and we'll do it quicker with daily articles. User:60.230.37.94|60.230.37.94 06:53, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
:Because not every article is up to snuff yet. Also, there is very little to write on some articles, especially [[:Category:Lists|list-based ones]]. Further, we'd probably run out fairly quickly if we did articles every day instead of every week. We only have about 1900.

:No. that would be not useful. To attract users to your userpage and talk page, why not contributing more to the wiki, like doing gnome work. Creating useful pages when sbemails and toons come out. {{User:Sam the Man/sig}} 16:04, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

== Image borders ==

In IE7, I've noticed that when an image on the main page has a height of an odd number of pixels, the bottom portion of the border around it doesn't appear correctly. The image appears to get shifted down a pixel and covers it. I decided to try it in Firefox and the borders all appear fine. But is there any way we can fix that for us die-hard IE users? Still plenty of us around, you know... {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 05:58, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
:While I'm sure the developers want to ensure good rendering on all browsers, you must also be aware that IE is notoriously non-compliant with the recommendations of the W3C.

'''They Might Be Giants''' is an alternative rock band that has collaborated with [[The Brothers Chaps]] on several occasions.

The story of the Homestar Runner collaboration:
<blockquote>"It was very circuitous. ... A photograph was taken of me wearing a Homsar shirt, which is one of the more obscure characters in Homestar. I was at an in-store thing wearing this shirt and a fan had taken a photograph of me signing their book or whatever, and the photograph of me showed up in some blog, and somebody made them aware of it. They were like, 'Hey look, they're wearing your shirt, you guys,' and so [the Brothers Chaps] knew that we were fans. And I guess Linnell kind of reached out to them and said, 'You know, if there's anything you want us to do, if you have any musical needs for your site or whatever, we'd be certainly happy to help you guys out,' and they took us up on that offer. We did a bunch of things with them — we did a jam session with the Homestar puppet, and they did this video for 'Experimental Film' — and it's kind of a mutual admiration society. We really enjoy what they do." — John Flansburgh from an interview in the [http://www.tucsonweekly.com/gbase/music/Content?oid=oid:59640 Tucson Weekly], 19 August 2004</blockquote>

== Collaborations ==
*They composed and performed the music for the [[Strong Bad Email|email]] [[different town]].
*John, John, and Marty jam with [[Homestar Runner]] in the [[Puppet Jam|Puppet Jam series]].
*The Brothers Chaps animated the [[Experimental Film|video]] for [[TMBW:Experimental Film|Experimental Film]], one of the songs from their 2004 CD [[TMBW:The Spine|The Spine]] and [[TMBW:The Spine Hits The Road|The Spine Hits The Road]]. This video was listed as the official music video for the song, and it aired once on MTV.
**They also animated the video for [[TMBW:Figure Eight|Figure Eight]] for the band's upcoming children's DVD, [[TMBW:Here Come The 123s|Here Come The 123s]].
*Puppets Homestar and [[Marshie]] joined They Might Be Giants onstage in Atlanta for their [[TMBG Concert - 25 Sep 2004|September 25, 2004 concert]].
*Puppet [[Strong Bad]] joined They Might Be Giants onstage in Atlanta for their [[TMBG Concert - 3 May 2006|May 3, 2006 concert]].

== Fun Facts ==
*In [[Thy Dungeonman 3]], there is an excerpt from [[TMBW:Fingertips|Fingertips]] when you type something that doesn't compute with the game (beginning with "I don't understand you...").
*[[Strong Sad]] quotes They Might Be Giants lyrics for the song "[[TMBW: Don't Let's Start|Don't Let's Start]]" in his [[Strong Sad's Lament|journal]]; "Everybody dies, frustrated and sad, and that is beautiful".

MrsCommanderson: /* Name that Tune */

==Pretend Reference??==
Strong Bad ordering a "Chateau Pretend" may be a reference to [[Wikipedia:François-René de Chateaubriand|François-René de Chateaubriand]], a French author/political figure from the 18-19th century. Strong bad uses the name in relation to food, and Chateaubriand was known for involvement in culinary arts.
:I think you're making the reference unnecessarily complicated. The way I see it, Chateau Pretend is a pretend wine. {{User:Kahteh/sig}} 11:06, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
::Lies. All lies. Clearly I'm the only one who knows how it all went down. Cast your mind back to [[car]], when Homestar gave a shout-out to Lemon Pretend. Whilst we can safely assume that within the fictional universe of Free Country, USA, Lemon Pretend is a type of pie, a search on Google turns back no recipies or even references to the existence of a Lemon Pretend pie (outside of the Homestar Runner reference, of course). It is through this method that I have come to the conclusion that the reference here is not a Real-World one, but one of the Inside demographic, and, as such, refers to the [[Strong Bad Email]] that usually goes by the name of "car". Thank you for your time. --[[User:Ppk01|Ppk01]] 12:27, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
:::Um... I'm not all that convinced that having the word 'Pretend' in a foodstuff's name really qualifies it as an inside reference. Unless you can find a way of working Great Uncle Pawdabber's Pre-Tend Ice Cream Showdown into the reference somehow. {{User:Kahteh/sig}} 16:28, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
::::Considering the three instances of the word "[[Pretend]]" in three separate cartoons, this should be considered an Inside Joke and a page should be made for it. After all, we've made pages for [[All Is On|less]]. --[[User:Ppk01|Ppk01]] 18:51, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
:::::It doesn't have to be a reference to be funny. Pawdabber's ice cream is pretend because it's really just sour cream and The Cheat fur. Chateau Pretend is pretend because the only real part of the restaurant is a cardboard box. There's nothing notable about Strong Bad using a regular English word to mean the same thing on two occasions. [[User:PolarBoy|PolarBoy]] 19:03, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
::::::Most likely a reference to [[Wikipedia:Château Latour|Château Latour]], considering he orders a bottle of it.
:::::::Agreed. Chateaubriand is a real stretch. [[User:JudahNielsen|JudahNielsen]] 22:09, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
::::::::''My'' first thought was that the wine was a tad [[Glossary#P|pretendous]]. [[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 23:43, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Just thought I'd mention, despite what is stated in the article, prétende IS actually a word in French - it is the subjunctive form of the verb prétendre.
:But it's being used here as an adjective, which isn't correct, right? Here's what our [[User talk:Meuhcoin#A couple transcript questions|resident native French speaker]] has to say about it... {{User:Trey56/sig}} 13:35, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
::Yes, it is clearly incorrect french. It is pseudo-french, which is part of the joke. But the article states that it isn't a word in french, which is also incorrect. I am also a native french speaker, by the way.

Gah... The tune the whale plays is ''extraordinarily'' familiar. I just can't place it, for the life of me. It's very frustrating. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 10:14, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Here's another idea [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Drive-Thru&diff=431666&oldid=431665 that was proposed]. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 13:14, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
<blockquote>The tune that the drive-thru whale plays appears to be the first few notes from the theme song for the television show ''Night Court''.</blockquote>
After listening to [http://youtube.com/watch?v=7pod-uZH8s8 the theme from Night Court], I think they're similar, but different. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 13:23, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
:I'm pretty sure it's from a game, possibly one on this site? (doubt it) - [[User:Quolnok|Quolnok]] 13:26, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Call me weird, but to me it sounds somewhat similar to the title screen themes in the Pokemon games. -Sumgirl

I think it's the beat that makes it familiar, rather than the tune. The beat is more or less the same as the [[Everybody Knows It]] song. [[User:Nsayer|Nsayer]] 17:09, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

TSSG3: When you try to match the two up, [[:Image:Speaker Song BW Koopa Village.ogg|even when you're nice]] to the beats, you don't get much of a hit. ¤ {{User:The Mu/sig}} 20:39, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Isn't it the chorus from the Gorillaz track "Dirty Harry"?

:I looked it up and it matches pretty well. [[User:Retromaniac|Retromaniac]] 22:23, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

:No, it's not. I just listened to it. --{{User:SyrenaV/sig}} 01:20, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

It's not Paper Mario, I have that game, or Night Court (I looked it up on YouTube). [[User:Retromaniac|Retromaniac]] 22:22, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't know, I'm pretty convinced by Night Court. The groove is different, but the melodic contour is the same. Both songs start on Bb, move through a major chord (w/ ornamentation) to rest briefly on F, peak on Ab, and descend by way of G and F. The crappy-speaker song is more or less what you'd get if you took Night Court, changed the tempo, set it to a different beat, and changed some of the little in-between notes. —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]]

For the musically challenged: [[:Image:Drive-Thru Tune.png]]. The real tune from the toon, the Koopa Village tune that TSSG3 posted, Night Court pulled from some MIDI I found on the net, and Dirty Harry, from me, since I own that one... all shifted to start on C, so they're easier to compare. They're don't really seem all that similar to me... {{User:Phlip/sig}} 00:24, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

The 2nd half of the song is identical for all intents and purposes to night court and the first half is 'similar' -[[User:JamesDean|JamesDean]] 03:22, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

It sounds a little Daytime TV to me, and it's said right after the word Password...does anyone know what the theme to that gameshow was? I've been trying to YouTube it for a few minutes...actually something in the background could have been it. I'll keep searching. There's 4 themes, I can find...one. Just a thought, probably nothing. ~ Shadix

The tune reminds me a bit of the music from the first level of the NES game Mappy Land.. but is slightly different. --[[User:AshyRaccoon|AshyRaccoon]] 05:54, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Which in turn was a lyricless version of "This little light of mine". The whales song does sound similar.{{User:Sesshoumaru Cian/sig}}

The instrument sounds extremely similar to keyboard-headed-Strong Bad's keyboard, and considering its association with the Drive-thru Whale, it might make sense, seeing as it's very similar to what one may expect from Sweet Cuppin' Cakes. --[[User:199.94.78.180|199.94.78.180]] 16:21, 20 March 2007 (UTC).

I figured it was the ''Night Court'' theme mainly because it works about the same way as Homestar's beanie: it plays the music when the thingie on top is in motion. [[User:Octan|Octan]] 05:14, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

:The only thing this discussion is showing is that this probably isn't based off of any actual song at all. I've heard all of the above-mentioned tunes, and I seriously doubt it's any of them. In my opinion, it was just a small jingle and nothing more. [[User:0rion|0rion]] 19:33, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Another thing it's kinda similar to but not really: the breakdancing rodent in [[isp]]. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 22:38, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

:Unfortunately for me, the tune reminds me of a less crappy version of Robbie Williams' "Lovelight". I doubt that TBC would have such terrible taste in music. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 20:03, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

I think I have an idea. This song sounded familiar to me when I heard it, and I have a keyboard that TBC evidently have, as evidenced by the fact that the jingle bells song in the decemberween sweet cuppin cakes was a demo on my keyboard. Maybe it's a demo song from some keyboard. TBC have a tendency to use keyboard demos often. I dunno, I'm gonna dig around for that keyboard tomorrow, I would tonight but the kids are asleep. James 03:33, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually, I think it kinda sounds like part of Space Captainface's theme song.

By Lord, I think I have it! It's just a simple tune [[The Brothers Chaps]] made. Case closed! [[User:68.205.128.200|68.205.128.200]]

I realize this is an Old topic, but I think it's from an old advert/comercial, I'll get back to you on which one, but I think it was a fast food place, which would make a LOT of sense. [[User:MJN SEIFER|MJN SEIFER]] 15:54, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Sorry to dredge this up, but I just bought ''Donkey Kong Country'' on the Wii's Virtual Console, and the bonus level song's opening notes sound very similar to the first few notes of the whale's song. --[[User:MrsCommanderson|MrsCommanderson]] 01:51, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

== Jeeves ==

Reginald Jeeves is a character created by P.G. Wodehouse who appears in a number of short stories and novels. In the literature, Jeeves works as the valet of Bertie Wooster.

Moron. The theory of special relativity says that nothing, absolutely nothing, can travel faster than the speed of light (or else imaginary numbers get introduced into the equations).

:I posted a rough calculation of the speed, but it looks like someone else got higher math involved before me. My intent for my posting was to display the absurdity of an air compressed rocket getting to Europa and back in the 2:19 running time of the e-mail.

== Why the first rocket launch fizzled ==

I tried to add this to the reference, but it was reverted.

The reason the rocket performed so poorly when Strong Bad first attempted to launch (without the compressOR) it was that he forgot to fill it half full of water. For those familiar with the toy water rockets in question, they behaved exactly that way without the water in them. Seems like everything I contribute gets immediately reverted. Sort of makes it not worth the attempt. [[User:Nsayer|Nsayer]] 21:30, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

<blockquote>When Strong Bad shouts at the drive-thru whale about being isolated in the middle of the field, his voice echoes even though there is nothing else in the field for the sound of his voice to bounce off of.</blockquote>
:I was the one that deleted it, and this is the reason: the speed of sound is exactly 769.5 miles per hour. An echo can bounce off of an object over 5 miles away given the proper conditions. Even during the two or three pan-outs of the field, there was simply no way to be certain that there was nothing for the echo to resound off of. We've also seen numerous buildings in Free Country, USA, any one of which could have been just out of our range of vision. In addition, even if it were true, the echo was made for comedic effect, as in many TV shows, movies, and cartoons. It's really no more noteworthy than say... Homsar's feet making a silly sound when he walks. Sure, that wouldn't normally happen, but it's a cartoon. Incidentally, thanks for taking this to the discussion page in order to clear this up. [[User:0rion|0rion]] 07:31, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

what this reminds me of, though its nothing to do with zelda, is the Lunar Whale from Final Fantasy V that carries characters from earth to the moon. Could it be a reference to that instead? (or a reference to both?)

::The Big Whale is from Final Fantasy 4, not 5, BTW. Kind of a stretch, either way, though... -{{User:YK/sig}} 06:30, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't think it was a reference to anything. I think it was just supposed to be some kind of alien pod sent to get food, in the same manner Strong Bad sent the toy rocket to get Lobsters. -[[User:Chupaqueso|Chupaqueso]] 00:14, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

If anything, the concept of a "Space Whale" could be a reference to the original SNES StarFox, which featured a space whale. By itself it's a reference to the game StarGlider II which also had space whales, and is the direct ancestor to StarFox (StarGlider II was from Argonaut). But ultimately, StarGlider II's space whales may be a reference to "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home".[[User:24.203.165.35|24.203.165.35]] 09:51, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

== severed limbs ==

Personally, I believe that the "sever your leg" comment is an inside joke. It is another reference to severed limbs. There should probably be a page for it.

You be the judge:

In the email "cliffhangers," Lappy has a "severed little toe," ie the comma. In "Halloween Potion-ma-jig" Pom Pom pulls out a severed toe to add to Homestar's potion. There's always the many references to Strong Sad's severed head. And, Strong Bad's severed head when he was commenting on the costumes, although I'm not sure which one it was. And Coach Z, at one point, thought he found Biscuitdoughhandsman's severed hand.

I'm not sure if there are any more. Those are the ones I could think of.

I hope this warrants a sub-category. If not, no worries. It was just a thought.

:Now that you mention it, severed body parts have come up alot... do they already have a page? Let me check. If not, we should put one up.--{{User:DongleGoblin/sig}} 19:37, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Have any of you noticed that before the sign swallowed the lobster it severed its claw when told to? This might be a stretch, but is it possible that the swallowing and take off sequence of the sign is somehow triggered by the severing of limbs? -Scholar of Homestar

[[Image:TrogdorGH2.jpg|thumb|The intro to ''Trogdor'', crediting the song to Strong Bad.]]

'''''[[Wikipedia:Guitar Hero (series)|Guitar Hero]]''''' is a series of video games formerly developed by [[Wikipedia:Harmonix Music Systems|Harmonix]] that enables players to play along to well-known rock songs using a guitar-shaped controller. The CEO of Harmonix, [[Wikipedia:Alex Rigopulos|Alex Rigopulos]], contacted [[The Brothers Chaps]] and asked if they would be willing to include a [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] [[song]] as a bonus track on ''[[Wikipedia:Guitar Hero II|Guitar Hero II]]'' (see [[Georgia Tech - 26 Apr 2007]]). Following the success of ''Guitar Hero II'', Harmonix developed ''[[Wikipedia:Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s|Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s]]'' and once again used a Homestar Runner song as part of the game's set list. Another sequel in the series, ''[[Wikipedia:Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock|Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock]]'', had many people's hopes up to have another song from the Homestar Runner body of work. Unfortunately, there is no song on the game from homestarrunner.com

==Guitar Hero II==
[[Image:Guitar Hero II Trogdor Bonus.JPG|thumb|The description of ''Trogdor'' from the in-game store.]]
[[Trogdor (song)|Trogdor]] is an unlockable bonus track in ''Guitar Hero II''. The description given for the song in the game's menu reads <blockquote>
The Trogdor song from the [[Strong Bad Email]] '[[dragon]]' was actually an afterthought that was added at the last minute. [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] was finishing up the cartoon and [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] suddenly started screaming the chorus while making eggs.
</blockquote>
The loading screen for the song displays what is apparently advice on playing the song from [[Strong Bad]]:
<blockquote>
"For squeadlies, [[Mashing|mash]] on the trembalo. For meadlies, tone up on your chord surpassers. Oh, and I'm awesome."
</blockquote>
This advice is based on Strong Bad's guitar terminology from [[guitar]].

==Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s==

[[Because It's Midnite]] is featured as an "encore" song in ''Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s''. The song is considered particularly difficult, because of the main guitar solo.
The Loading screen for the song reads <blockquote> While on tour, [[Limozeen]] used to demand leather sheets from the hotels they stayed at until the rashes and animal rights activists became a problem.

[http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/They_Might_Be_Giants] I'm sure the wording on our article could use a change, but remember that in the context of TMBG's work with [[The Brothers Chaps]], it's always been the five that are listed.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 06:10, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

== When Worlds Collide ==

I think that it's great that TMBG & The Brothers Chaps got together because they're all geniuses in their fields with similar sensibilties that makes their work so compatible, introducing so many fans of one or the other to a new world of entertainment.

There was, of course already an overlap in the fanbase prior to TMBG & h*r's collaberations. Via SBEmail and even more so the Experimental Film video and the Puppet Jams, a lot of Homestar fans were introduced to TMBG and a lot of TMBG fans were introduced to Homestar Runner. I was one of the latter, having watched my first toon, SBEmail #99 in March '04 after receiving a TMBG e-mail newsletter inviting me to do just that.

Well before the Experimental Film video came around, I had watched every toon on the site.

I hope that these guys get together again, and soon. Don't you?? --[[User:TDK|TDK]] 18:18, 17 November 2005 (UTC)

Well "Cheatsa Pizza" could be a reference to ''Mario Party 3'''s "Eatsa Pizza" mini game. I know that the Chapman brothers are Nintendo fans, just throught I'd throw that in there for debate. I didn't know where to put it. :P --[[User:MrsCommanderson|MrsCommanderson]] 20:44, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== Pizza and Grill ==

I vote '''Decline'''. But on what?

Someone will eventually claim that since a large number of people can fit into the KOT's grill and have a pizza joint party there, that it must come from a Warner Brothers cartoon in which Daffy or someone opens a fridge or oven and there's stock film of a party going on inside it; or that it comes from something similar held in Snoopy's doghouse.

On ''that''. {{User:Zoom/sig}} 01:48, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
:I assumed that it was definitely a reference to Looney-Tunes gags [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit_Every_Monday">] where there's a party in the oven. Why wouldn't it be? -chad [don't even know how to do this sorry if I screw something up]

==Hang on a sec...==
Does this mean that Strong Bad has finally hit it with the ladies? [[User:141.133.145.118|141.133.145.118]]

Debatable. The ladies were there for The Cheat. Strong Bad just moved in on his action. --{{User:Bigscarymike/sig}} 03:17, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== Floppy Disk Container is not an inside reference... ==

The name on the container is actually from the a game for PC and PS1 made in 1995 here's the wikipedia link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_(video_game)
-CujoSR First Post but long time lurker...
:The floppy disk container has [[-'d]] written on it, as a reference to [[Teen Girl Squad]]. ''That'' is the inside reference I'm talking about. [[User:141.133.145.118|141.133.145.118]] 02:09, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
::I'm pretty sure CujoSR is right. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 02:15, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== Background ==

Hey, is there a new background in this email? Because I don't remember seeing "trees" like that before. -[[User:141.133.145.118|141.133.145.118]] 02:46, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

:Yeah, I think you're right — I only remember seeing the ellipsoidal trees, which were used as recently as the last sbemail. I bet this is the new trees' debut! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 02:48, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== virtualpizz.biz ==

Looks like virtualpizz.biz has become official. The login page now redirects you to this SB e-mail. The domain is registered to some dude from Austin, Texas, so I'm guessing the Brothers Chaps aren't behind this, unless they recruited a partner! --{{User:Bigscarymike/sig}} 03:14, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

:Yeah, it's a fan — {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=pizza_joint&diff=500893&oldid=500892 this}} is the original message he had in the Easter egg. He sure registered that domain name and got the site up fast! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 03:16, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== One "Pizz Point" for a Cow Lamp? ==

When Strong Bad adds the Cow Lamp to his Virtualpizz.biz room, only one "point" is deducted from his total. In garage sale, Homestar says "You wouldn't get much for that thing anyways. It's not even a real cow." Do you think the cheap price is a reference?

Also, this is the first time I have done anything here, so I'm new to this. {{unsigned|Nameless2000|04:34, 25 September 2007 (UTC)}}
:Makes sense to me -[[User:Jdhannan|Jdhannan]] 15:13, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Hm...I think that's kinda far fetch'd for something like this...--{{User:Zerlock1124/sig}} 13:09, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
:I don't see this far fetched at all. All the other stuff costs a lot, and then there's a cowlamp for 1 point. If it's not a reference to that garage sale quote, there's still definitely something behind this, and should somehow be at least noted in some clause somewhere. --[[User:Sysrq868|Sysrq868]] 15:22, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== Indiana Jones reference? ==

"I belong in a museum!" seems to be a reference to ''Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'', when he tells the villain who stole the Cross of Coronado "it belongs in a museum!" (Twice, actually.)--[[User:Tenka Muteki|Tenka Muteki]] 05:46, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

:I think it's a coincidence, personally. I love The Ugly One's line there, though! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 06:01, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
::Coincidence. [[User:Xerzes|Xerzes]] 09:31, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
:::Third'd. [[User:74.136.201.5|74.136.201.5]] 12:39, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

-Since the ugly one is in a Egyption sarcaphagus, (note Egypt was not a location for The Last Crusade) that reference doesn't seem very plausible.

-That could be classified as TTATOT, since it could be a reference to many things and whatnot. I just wouldn't go there...--{{User:Zerlock1124/sig}} 13:11, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

:Okay, it's looking like the consensus so far is that it's not a reference, so I {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=pizza_joint&diff=501106&oldid=501105 removed it}}. Here's the fact as it was written. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 13:18, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
<blockquote>
The Ugly One's line, "I belong in a museum!" could be a reference to the opening sequence to ''Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'', in which Indiana is fighting a man on a ship for the Cross of Coronado and says, "It belongs in a museum!" The man replies, "So do you!"
</blockquote>

== real world reference. ==

first flash site by brothers chaps anyone?

:I'm pretty sure that would be homestarrunner.com, which was started in 2000. In fact the only other flash site they've done that I can think of is mellowmushroom.com (2001). What does this have to do with the sbemail? [[User:74.136.201.5|74.136.201.5]] 12:48, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

:: Think he was incorrectly assuming Mellow Mushroom came first, and trying to connect it with the pizza theme in this email. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:51, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== locations: Virtualpizz ==

isn't that website with a virtual strongbadia and homestar and the KOT a location? also, new character spin offs?(though the avatar's dont resemble Homestar and the King.

and did anybody notice a mouse cursor on Strong bad's computer? user: Raltaran (from starwars wiki)

:I don't think it should count as a location, since they weren't really there... it was just a simulation.

:Also, you're right that at least Strong Bad's version should go on [[Retro Gaming Character Variations]]. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 15:16, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== The delivery guy's flat ==

Does anyone else hear, "...the delivery guy caught a flat" as opposed to "got a flat"? I'm pretty sure I hear a hard "c" sound in there... --[[User:Lukeonia1|Lukeonia1]] 15:49, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
:I hear "caught". It's weird, though. :|[[User:Awexome|Awexome]] 18:59, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== Fourth Wall? ==

I'm reasonably sure Strong Sad's blatant mention of "Strong Bad Email 179" is an example of a [[Fourth Wall Break|Fourth Wall Break]]. I saw it mentioned last night, then removed. By its definition, it qualifies as a break of the 4th wall. Thoughts? [[User:PlasticDiverGuy|PlasticDiverGuy]] 15:52, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

:I {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=pizza_joint&diff=501115&oldid=501111 removed it}}. Strong Bad knows that he has an email show, and he occasionally mentions the number of the episode (e.g., [[flashback]], [[montage]], etc.) So, I don't think that Strong Bad is recognizing that they are cartoons in his review, he's just commenting on the episode as it happens. I could be wrong, though — sometimes it's difficult to determine what is a Fourth Wall Break and what isn't... {{User:Trey56/sig}} 15:57, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

:: I think it totally breaks the fourth wall, He points up to the address bar of the browser... that is a total break [[User:MisteR t|mister t]] 18:06, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

:::Oh, I didn't notice that he was pointing at the address bar — maybe you have a point, then. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 18:16, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
::::The pointing at the address bar was what I noticed, and I'm the one who suggested it in the first place. That, and the URL appearing on the screen. [[User:Awexome|Awexome]] 18:57, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

==Tire goof? ==

In the social networking scene, is the Homestar "slice" passing behind the tire a goof? [[User:Wear a Bikini|Wear a Bikini]] 17:05, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

== The Maxx ==

"The Max" could be a reference to Saved by the Bell or to the TV show/comic book "The Maxx" (which has showed up on h*r before)

==Pizza Party==

The way Homestar is saying "pizza party" reminds me of some cartoon where the character was saying "Party! Ice cream party!" the same way. [[User:Awexome|Awexome]] 19:02, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

The Brothers Chaps' Other Projects

MrsCommanderson — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 00:27:29 GMT

MrsCommanderson: /* Music and Music Videos */

[[Image:Mellow Mushroom.png|thumb|Notice any similarities to the [[Main Pages]]?]]
[[The Brothers Chaps]] have participated in several '''side projects''' independent of [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]].

==Websites==
*[[Mellow Mushroom]] — [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] and [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] designed this website in 2001 for a chain of [[pizza]] restaurants headquartered in [[Georgia]]. The layout, navigation, and [[sound effects]] are similar to that of Homestar Runner, and the voices of the brothers and [[Missy Palmer]] are very distinctive.
*[[Thorax Corporation]] — The Brothers Chaps, primarily Matt, created this website for a fictional company, and hid a link to the site in one of the [[Fortune Cookies]]. The Thorax Corporation is made up of stereotypical, overly aggressive domain-name owners who offer domain-name registration services while bombarding visitors with popups and ads.
*[http://www.greatworldofsound.com Great World of Sound] — The Brothers Chaps presumably made this fake website to promote the film they produced of the same name (see below). [[Forum:10623|According to Craig Zobel]], it was somewhat inspired by the Thorax Corporation website (see above).

==Television==
*''[[Wikipedia:Sealab 2021|Sealab 2021]]'' — Matt performed two songs in a [[Larry Palaroncini]]-style voice for an episode entitled [http://www.tv.com/sealab-2021/sharkos-machine/episode/380484/summary.html "Sharko's Machine"].
:*[http://www.adultswim.com/downloads/tools/audio/sealab/sealab_respektag.mp3 Download "Respek Knuckles"]
:*[http://www.adultswim.com/downloads/tools/audio/sealab/sealab_knowledge.mp3 Download "The Knowledge Hat"]

==Film==
*''[[IMDB:tt0826547|Great World of Sound]]'' — Matt served as an executive producer for this film, which was directed by [[Craig Zobel]] and produced by Missy Palmer. The film focuses on a scam in the music industry called "Song Sharking" and was shown at the [[Wikipedia:2007 Sundance Film Festival|2007 Sundance Film Festival]].
*Missy Palmer has a developing résumé of film credits, available at her [[imdb:nm0658371|IMDB page]].

==Music and Music Videos==
*[[They Might Be Giants]] — The Brothers Chaps have collaborated several times with this band: they animated a music video for their song "[[Experimental Film]]", and appeared with [[Puppet Stuff|Homestar Runner puppets]] at their concerts. The Brothers Chaps are also contributing a video for They Might Be Giants' upcoming children's album, ''Here Come The 123s!''.
*[[Wikipedia:of Montreal|of Montreal]] — Matt and Mike directed the music video for the song "Heimdalsgate Like a Promethean Curse".
**[http://youtube.com/watch?v=5VeIL7juFE0 Watch "Heimdalsgate Like a Promethean Curse"]
*[[Y-O-U]] — In exchange for their help with producing the [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]] CD, Mike and Matt animated the music video for their song "LA Lindsay".
:*[http://www.pleaserock.com/lalindsaymusicvideo.html Watch "LA Lindsay"]

==Family==
*[[If I Ran the Camera]] — Mike and Matt created this Flash slideshow for a poem that their sister [[Karen Wagner|Karen]] had written for their father, [[Don and Harriet Chapman|Don Chapman]], for Father's Day. The slideshow featured images of Don with his granddaughter [[Little Girl|Astrid Renee]] (Karen's daughter). This piece was a [[secret page]] originally posted on [[homestarrunner.com]], but it was removed sometime in 2003 after the Brothers Chaps realized that fans had discovered it.

''{The toon opens with Tompkins playing his Game Boy with a silhouette of his mother waving to him. The Teen Girl Squad theme music plays.}''

'''TOMPKINS:''' Aww, peas Momkins. I don't need a babysitter.

''{Zoom out to reveal Momkins, a robot wearing cowboy boots and a hat and carrying a pickaxe, along with a baby.}''

'''TOMPKINS:''' I can watch baby Timkins while you go out prospecting for future ex-husbands.

'''MOMKINS:''' Whatevs little man. You can't even take care of your own virtual pet.

''{Cut to a closeup of the Game Boy screen, displaying a bloated pet and the text, "Food: 600%". Music stops}''

'''VIRTUAL PET:''' Please stop feeding me!

''{Music continues. Tompkins begins mashing the buttons on the Game Boy.}''

'''TOMPKINS:''' Teh heh heh heh heh.

'''SO AND SO:''' Hello Mrs. Tomkinsrobotmomerson. I know I'm 3 hours early, but I wanted to...

'''MOMKINS:''' Listen, I'll be at a place until a time. My cell phone number is some numbers. The baby needs stuff. What's poison control? Punch Tomkins in the gut. Good luck.

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*The [[Wikipedia:SAT|SAT Reasoning Test]] is a test that is frequently taken prior to entry into college in America.
*[[Wikipedia:Phencyclidine|PCP]], also known as angel dust, is a recreational drug.
*''Eau de Toilette'' is [[French]] for "Toilet Water", usually signifying a cologne of some sort.
*A "[http://www.dict.org/bin/Dict?Form=Dict2&Database=*&Query=gold+digger gold digger]" is a person who marries/dates for profit.

===Trivia===
*This issue is the first of its kind to use a [[Wikipedia:Cold open|cold open]] instead of starting immediately with the opening credits.
*So and So is not included in the opening, as she has already been shown in the toon.

===Remarks===
* When the toon was first released, the button on the main page said only "teen girl squad" instead of the usual "New teen girl squad!"
* The '2 pantries' are actually one pantry with a reverse image next to it.

===Goofs===
* Tompkins's name is misspelled as "Tomkins" through the entire toon, except in the Snack Mix sequence ("Tompkins' Parlor").
* When Cheerleader is saying to sneak in through the back window, the text reads "the through", while she says "through the".

===Inside References===
*What's Her Face comments about the loss of her [[style]].
*When Tompkins pushes the buttons on his Game Boy to feed his virtual pet, the text [[Mashing Go|"m.a.s.h."]] appears.
*So and So saying "I can't do another nickel!" is in reference to [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 11]] when So and So was in jail for shoplifting.
*Tompkins's mom's name ends with [[Names ending in -erson|-erson]].

===Real-World References===
*Peacey P's voice and singing style is very similar to that of [[Wikipedia:Snoop Dogg|Snoop Dogg]].
**Peacey P might also be a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Stones Throw Records|Stones Throw Records]] artist [[Wikipedia:Percee P|Percee P]].
*So and So's line "You'll microwave the baby!!" and the book of urban legends she is holding reference the urban legend of a stoned babysitter [http://www.snopes.com/horrors/drugs/babysitter.asp mistaking a baby for a roast].
*The lines about the Snack Mix prior to What's Her Face's demise are based on the board game [[Wikipedia:Cluedo|Clue]].
*The title of the short is a reference to comedian Robin Harris' "Bébé's Kids" stand-up comedy act. After his death, his routine was adapted into a movie, also called "Bébé's Kids", the first animated feature with a majority African-American cast.
*"Ding dong. Ding dong, yo." is a reference to a line from the video for "Fat" by [[Wikipedia:Weird Al Yankovic|"Weird Al" Yankovic]].
*Dangling The Ugly One over the balcony is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Vanilla_Ice|Vanilla Ice's]] claim that rap record producer [[Wikipedia:Suge_Knight|Marion "Suge" Knight]] hung him up upside down on a hotel balcony in order to get Vanilla Ice to turn over his royalties. This relates to the rapper Peacey P shown earlier in the episode.
*The way the other three Teen Girl Squad members burst through the wall is similar to the [[Wikipedia:Kool-Aid Man|Kool-Aid Man]]'s entrances.
*When the police arrive, So and So thinks she is in legal trouble, but all the police want is to watch the fight on Pay-per-view. This is a take of a similar scene in [[Wikipedia:The Simpsons|The Simpsons]] episode [[Wikipedia:Homer_vs._Lisa_and_the_8th_Commandment|Homer vs. Lisa and the 8th Commandment]] when two policemen arrive to watch the fight on Homer's illegal cable hookup.
*The [[Wikipedia:PlayStation#PSone|PSOne]] is a smaller and redesigned version of the [[Wikipedia:PlayStation|PlayStation]] video game console, which was produced by [[Wikipedia:Sony Computer Entertainment|Sony Computer Entertainment]] in the mid-1990s.

== A reply! Muahahaha! ==

Thanks for your input. I always like to hear from people who like my page. It's pretty much my lot in life to drop random messages wherever I go, even if it's on my own page. Moving on, I have indeed read ''Full Tilt''. It's pretty cool. Where does this guy come up with this stuff, anyway? It's sort of like one of those Goosebumps books, the one about the amusement park that's run with homicide on the agenda. Anyway, back to Shusterman. Have you read any of his other stuff? If you have, then maybe you can tell me which character that has been in every other novel by Shusterman is missing from this one. If you haven't read anything else by him, read ''The Eyes of Kid Midas'', ''The Shadow Club'', or the ''MindQuakes'' series. Those are my favorite things by him. 
Thanks for the input,

*You can click on "Directed by Strong Sad & The Cheat" before the video starts to get a commentary by Homestar Runner characters.

===Commentary Transcript===

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, hello, this is Strong Sad...

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' ...and we're the co-directors of this video.

'''THE CHEAT:''' Meh!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, so my portion of this video details the life of a very lonely individual named Rondell who can't deal with the decisions of day-to-day life.

'''STRONG BAD:''' We interrupt this whining to bring you this important headline: "World bored to death by Strong Sad commentary."

'''STRONG SAD:''' Agh, what are you doing here? You're hardly even in this video!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, well, I woulda been the one directing it if weren't for those Super Giant guys.

'''STRONG SAD:''' That's not what they're called.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whatever they're called, that one right there with the glasses, he started talking all these vocabulary words at me and confusin' me and the next thing I know, I was relegated to this crappy bit part. ''{Referring to the top of two heads (one is wearing glasses, likely They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh)}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Hey, "relegated" sounds like a vocabulary word.

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'll relegate your face to a...bloody pulp!

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{Coffee was being hit with a drumstick}'' {The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, that part represented hitting coffee with a drumstick. Okay.

[[Image:gracious.png|thumb|"Aah! More like our 'I'll murder you in a back alley' host."]]
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{upon seeing a picture captioned "our gracious host"}'' Aah! More like our "I'll murder you in a back alley" host.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, so this next part ''{referring to tiny The Cheats erupting from cracks in Rondell's hands}'' is an allusion to one of my very favorite experimental films called--

'''STRONG BAD:''' Boring Johnny and the Get Bored Crew.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{exasperated}'' Would you quit it with the "boring" comments?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Look, if it weren't for that tentacle skull riding the old-timey bike, this video would have nothin'!

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, yeah, the first question on that pop quiz was, "Are you all going to be in my experimental film?" ''{Referring to Pop Quiz in clip}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{the tentacle skull is seen in ink on lined paper}'' Oh, look, there he is! Keep on old-timey bikin', tentacle-skull. ''{Gavin is seen}'' Hey, is that Gavin? I didn't know he was in this video. He's got, like, as much screen time as I do!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey guys, is this the Super Giants video?

'''STRONG SAD:''' That's not what they're—

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yes. But they cut us out of it.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, weird—then why'd they bother getting somebody who looks just like me? ''{Seeing himself in the clip}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' No, that is you, I just mean they mostly—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{Seeing Strong Bad and Strong Mad in the clip}'' And that guy looks just like you! And that big guy ''{referring to Strong Mad}'' looks just like Coach Z!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Now this part accurately represents what it feels like to watch this video. ''{Ticking clock shown}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{exasperated}'' Ohhh! This next part ''{the film shows Rondell's face, then begins to shake, and the image disappears as if burning, revealing animated Rondell}'' is all about Rondell's transformation into a new man.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I thought you said that was just an accident that happened because you loaded the film wrong.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{embarrassed}'' Uhh, why don't you shut up, Homestar?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I dunno... 'cause I guess I got a lot of stuff to say.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{when he, Strong Mad and Homestar are seen dancing}'' Check out my dance! Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! ''{The Cheat joins in}'' Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! ''{Homestar joins in}'' Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ahhh, this is the worst commentary ever!

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's what I've been saying this whole time!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, me too. Worst... commissary... ever.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{during the portion where components of the film are seen pogoing}'' At this point reality and fantasy have collided and everybody... pogos.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{as an animated Rondell walks up to an animated ATM}'' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{angry}'' What do you mean you tried to be as dumpy-accurate as possible?

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as Strong Bad is seen dancing, with the words "Real Smooth Moves" is seen above him}'' Let's talk about how "Real Smooth Moves" is like the best band name ever. The old Supreme Giants boys could take a cue from that one.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{as a muffin on a table is seen}'' I'm gonna take a cue from that kitchen table and go get me a blueb'ry muffin!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ohh, what a disaster. I hope I still get paid.

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===

*This toon was made for the first single from They Might Be Giants' tenth studio album ''[[TMBW:The Spine|The Spine]]''. The song is called [[TMBW:Experimental Film|Experimental Film]].
*The two head-tops belong to They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh and John Linnell. The one on the left is Flansburgh, as he has black hair and wears glasses, and the one on the right is Linnell.
*The answers for the "pop quiz" most likely refer to the [[Wikipedia:Cotton gin|cotton gin]], an invention that revolutionized the cotton-growing industry; [[Wikipedia:Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia|Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia]], a town famous as the location where the [[Wikipedia:American Civil War|American Civil War]] ended; and the all-time career record for home runs in [[Wikipedia:Major League Baseball|Major League Baseball]] (755), set by baseball player [[Wikipedia:Hank Aaron|Hank Aaron]]. The first question was "Are you all going to be in my experimental film?"

===Trivia===

*This toon was originally posted on [[The Brothers Chaps]]' [[Thorax:|thoraxcorp.com]], but was quickly taken down.
*This toon was released at approximately midnight, Atlanta time, on 13 July 2004—the release date of ''The Spine''.
*The joystick Homestar is using is for an [[Atari 2600]].
*According to [http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.07/play.html this Wired interview], TMBG were going to make a separate video for the [[Wikipedia:MTV|MTV]] crowd. Choice quote: "I feel like if MTV and Homestar collided, the world might explode." However, the H*R music video '''did''' air on MTV.
*Despite "resolving not to feel so bad about wanting to hit Homestar so much" (see Strong Sad's [[Strong Sad's Lament|Blog]]), the commentary shows the first time that Strong Sad has stood up to Homestar. As expected, Homestar doesn't take him very seriously.
*The first frame of the actual song is labeled "[[Glossary#V|viderostart]]" internally (this label is used by the commentary scripts).

===Glitches===

*Occasionally, the commentary will stop after about half of Strong Bad's first line, while the rest of the music in the background stays quieted. This continues throughout the entire cartoon.

===Remarks===

*The first line of the song is "The color of infinity inside an empty glass." Strong Sad's glass is full.
*Even though Strong Sad says he can't jump in his blog, he jumps here and in [[A Jumping Jack Contest]].
*For the shot of Strong Sad pointing the camera in the mirror at an angle to be possible, the view would have to be from a second camera filming this, or involve additional mirrors.
*In the commentary, Strong Bad comments that Gavin got as much screen time as he did, but in fact, Strong Bad has about 10 seconds of screen time, versus Gavin's 3 seconds.

===Goofs===

*When you click "Directed by Strong Sad and The Cheat" at the beginning for the commentary, it plays the normal video without commentary for a few seconds. It then goes back to the beginning and does the commentary.
*The first time the crowd uses the cards to make a picture of the Coffee Cup, at the bottom right corner on the second square up, the rim of the cup is yellow instead of white like the rest of the cup.
*The clock has six seconds between the three and the four.
**This adds to Strong Bad's argument during the commentary that "this part accurately represents what it feels like to watch this video."
*As Homestar prepares to run away from Strong Sad, if you look close, you can see that his leg is disconnected from his body.

===Inside References===

*When "It's a lion!" pops up for the first time, the lion is wearing Homestar's hat.
*Just before Homestar appears, the crowd flips the cards to a picture of an olive on a toothpick. This was the eye from the [[Homestar Jr.]] in [[Where's The Cheat?]]
*When the people in the grandstands flip the scenery cards to the mountain scene, it slightly resembles [[Main Page 2]].
*"Our gracious host" bears a striking resemblance to [[Monte Negro]] in [[Malloween Commercial]].
*When Homestar appears between the split screens, his lips move in such a way that he may be saying "[[Witches' Brew]]" yet again.

====They Might Be Giants References====

*United States presidents are [[TMBW:Presidents|a common theme]] in TMBG's work; they have no fewer than five songs about U.S. presidents and frequently mention presidents in songs and on stage. Their [http://www.tmbg.com website] is also presidentially themed.
**It should be noted, however, that while the band chose the album title ''Lincoln'' fully aware of its presidential overtones, the album is actually named after Lincoln, Massachusetts—the town where the two Johns grew up.
*Skulls (i.e. the Tentacle Skull seen riding the bicycle) are another [[TMBW:Skulls|frequent TMBG theme]]. In addition to being mentioned in several of their songs, it appears on the cover of their ''[[TMBW:Back To Skull|Back to Skull]]'' EP and on the back of their ''[[TMBW:John Henry|John Henry]]'' album. The skull might also be the [[TMBW:Skullivan|Skullivan]], as mentioned in the companion EP for ''The Spine'', ''[[TMBW:The Spine Surfs Alone (EP)|The Spine Surfs Alone]]''.
*[[TMBW:Coffee|Coffee]] is yet another common theme in the work of TMBG. The earliest videos and promotional matierials from the '80s show TMBG with cups of coffee. In the film ''[[TMBW:Gigantic|Gigantic]]'', TMBG confesses that they are insanely dependent on coffee.
*In the commentary, both Strong Bad and Homestar get TMBG's name totally wrong (both "Super Giants" and "Supreme Giants" are mentioned). This is, of course, [[TMBW:Monikers|not the first time this has happened]]. In fact, one of their early EPs included [[TMBW:Untitled|an answering machine message]] in which two people discuss "There Must Be Giants" and "There May Be Giants" and appear to be confused about the whole experience.
*The finger that comes up at one point might be a reference to the thumb on the cover of TMBG's [[TMBW:Dial-A-Song - 20 Years Of They Might Be Giants|"Dial-a-Song" album]], or perhaps the close-up of a cartoon finger pressing an elevator button in the video for "[[TMBW:(She Was A) Hotel Detective|(She Was a) Hotel Detective]]".
*The globe in the video is an nod to one of TMBG's more popular songs, [[TMBW:Ana Ng|Ana Ng]] in which a globe is reference in the beginning lines of the song.
*This is not the first time TMBG have worked with Flash accompaniment. Their children's album, "No!" (2002) was an enhanced CD, with 13 of the 17 songs having Flash animation complementing the music.
*Strong Sad falling through the spiral of presidents could be a poke at the lyrics in [[TMBW:Spiraling Shape|Spiraling Shape]]. Example: ''"...And clawing at nothing you drop through the void..."''

===Real-World References===

*Strong Sad meeting the Grim Reaper through split screens is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Ingmar Bergman|Ingmar Bergman's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0050976|The Seventh Seal]]''.
*The scene with the film apparently burning (the one that Homestar credits to Strong Sad loading the film wrong) is a reference to Bergman's ''[[Wikipedia:Persona (film)|Persona]]''.
*Much of the imagery, and especially the scenes of Strong Sad watching film sprocket holds go by, is likely a reference to one of the first great experimental films, ''[[IMDB:tt0019760|The Man with a Movie Camera]]'' by [[Wikipedia:Dziga Vertov|Dziga Vertov]], which has a section in which the sides of the film are exposed, and the characters look outside their own frame/world at the holes running by.
*Ants (actually little The Cheats) crawling out of holes in Strong Sad's hands is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Luis Buñuel|Luis Buñuel's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0020530| Un Chien Andalou]]'' ("An Andalusian Dog") co-directed by famous surrealist painter [[Wikipedia:Salvador Dalí|Salvador Dalí]].
*Strong Sad shaving himself is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Jørgen Leth|Jørgen Leth's]] short film ''[[IMDB:tt0376821| Det perfekte menneske]]'' ("The Perfect Human").
*In the commentary, Strong Bad interrupts Strong Sad with the phrase "Boring Johnny and the Get Bored Crew". This is most likely a reference to the hip hop group "[[Wikipedia:Doug E. Fresh|Doug E. Fresh]] And The Get Fresh Crew".
*Homestar can be found playing a game much like ''[[Wikipedia:Space Invaders|Space Invaders]]'', only with presidents instead of aliens, as well as a dollar sign instead of a tank.
*The swinging lightbulb is from the famous penultimate scene in [[Wikipedia:Alfred Hitchcock|Hitchcock's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0054215|Psycho]]'', where Vera Miles finds Norman Bates' partially-preserved dead mother in the fruit cellar. The oscillating shadows that result are re-created in various places in the video/animation.
*Another Hitchcock film nod is made to ''[[IMDB:tt0052357|Vertigo]]'', when Strong Sad falls out of the film and into a descending spiral of presidential faces.
*The Tentacle-Skull can be seen riding a [[Wikipedia:Penny-farthing|penny-farthing]] bicycle.
*When Homestar is agreeing with Strong Bad, he says "Worst...commissary...ever." A [[Wikipedia:Commissary|Commissary]] is a grocery market, located only on army posts.

==DVD Version==
*The DVD version features two commentaries by Strong Sad, The Cheat, Strong Bad, and Homestar Runner. The first is available on the website and is transcribed above. The second is transcribed below. To access them, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

===Commentary Transcript===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Strong Sad]], [[The Cheat]], [[Strong Bad]], [[Homestar Runner]])

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, hello. This is Strong Sad.

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' And that's The Cheat, and we're gonna talk about this video. Oh, geez, it's already started. So the guys approached me to do a video for "Experimental Film", so I shot my own experimental film but the, uh, the glasses guy said that it was too much of a total drag, so they brought The Cheat on board to, as they said, "make it quit sucking," which I guess is an industry term, I dunno...

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, The Cheat wants you to know that he did this part. I think they probably figured that out. ''{The images of John Flansburgh and John Linnell's heads appear.}'' There he is! That glasses guy. You really dig those extreme climates, huh? The desert, the arctic, ''{As this is said, the scene shifts to the arctic.}'' football stadiums... So this scene is dealing with man's indecision and apathy.

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, that scene was dealing with hitting coffee with a drumstick, eh?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{"Our Gracious Host" appears.}'' Okay, The Cheat, come clean. Who is that creepy guy in the picture frame?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Who's Stephan?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, I can see he's "Our gracious host"! But what does he have to do with anything?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, whatever keeps you off the streets. ''{The Pop Quiz appears.}'' Let's see, those questions were, "How many home runs did Hank Aaron have?", "Where did Lee surrender to Grant?", "What did Eli Whitney invent?", and "Are you going to be in my experimental film?" What class is that for?!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, hello there, chumps!

'''STRONG SAD:''' What are you guys doing here?!

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm here to save this commentary from a death worse than... Strong Sad commentary.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' And I'm just here ridin' all y'all's coat tails.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, maybe you could tell me how you got that video game to come up on the ATM!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Maybe I'm some type of magic video game man. Maybe you should start dealing with that, Strong Sad.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Man, I wish I grabbed some of that black-and-white cash!

'''STRONG SAD:''' That was Monopoly money!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, but, I'm gonna... ''{coughs}'' uh, sneeze. Yeah, black-and-white Monopoly money! That stuff is priceless! I'd be livin' on Baltic Avenue!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, this part's all about rebirth and new life...

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, yeah, whatever. This part comin' up here is all about my new dance, The Side-swipe! ''{The dancing scene with Homestar, Strong Bad, and Strong Mad appears.}'' Check it out! Mm! Ah! Ooh side-swipe!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Sad.

'''STRONG SAD:''' What?!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Sad.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''What?!''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Umm... it's a lion. ''{As he says this, "It's a lion" appears in the football stands.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{A somewhat lengthy set of The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah, that was very insightful, The Cheat!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Yeah, yeah, totally!

'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, so what kinda soup was that? Like, tomato-basil or some kind of bisque?

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooh! Mulligatawny!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Can we talk about something artistic?

'''STRONG BAD:''' No, but we can talk about how "Real Smooth Moves" is, like, the best band name I ever heard. These Super Giant guys should change their name from "Super Giant" to "Real Smooth Moves." That's a band name!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, I'm outta here! Hope I still get paid!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, well, I woulda been the one directing it if weren't for those Super Giant guys.

'''STRONG SAD:''' That's not what they're called.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whatever they're called, that one right there with the glasses, he started talking all these vocabulary words at me and confusin' me and the next thing I know, I was relegated to this crappy bit part. ''{Referring to the top of two heads (one is wearing glasses, likely They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh)}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Hey, "relegated" sounds like a vocabulary word.

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'll relegate your face to a...bloody pulp!

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{Coffee was being hit with a drumstick}'' {The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, that part represented hitting coffee with a drumstick. Okay.

[[Image:gracious.png|thumb|"Aah! More like our 'I'll murder you in a back alley' host."]]
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{upon seeing a picture captioned "our gracious host"}'' Aah! More like our "I'll murder you in a back alley" host.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, so this next part ''{referring to tiny The Cheats erupting from cracks in Rondell's hands}'' is an allusion to one of my very favorite experimental films called--

'''STRONG BAD:''' Boring Johnny and the Get Bored Crew.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{exasperated}'' Would you quit it with the "boring" comments?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Look, if it weren't for that tentacle skull riding the old-timey bike, this video would have nothin'!

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, yeah, the first question on that pop quiz was, "Are you all going to be in my experimental film?" ''{Referring to Pop Quiz in clip}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{the tentacle skull is seen in ink on lined paper}'' Oh, look, there he is! Keep on old-timey bikin', tentacle-skull. ''{Gavin is seen}'' Hey, is that Gavin? I didn't know he was in this video. He's got, like, as much screen time as I do!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey guys, is this the Super Giants video?

'''STRONG SAD:''' That's not what they're—

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yes. But they cut us out of it.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, weird—then why'd they bother getting somebody who looks just like me? ''{Seeing himself in the clip}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' No, that is you, I just mean they mostly—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{Seeing Strong Bad and Strong Mad in the clip}'' And that guy looks just like you! And that big guy ''{referring to Strong Mad}'' looks just like Coach Z!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Now this part accurately represents what it feels like to watch this video. ''{Ticking clock shown}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{exasperated}'' Ohhh! This next part ''{the film shows Rondell's face, then begins to shake, and the image disappears as if burning, revealing animated Rondell}'' is all about Rondell's transformation into a new man.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I thought you said that was just an accident that happened because you loaded the film wrong.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{embarrassed}'' Uhh, why don't you shut up, Homestar?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I dunno... 'cause I guess I got a lot of stuff to say.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{when he, Strong Mad and Homestar are seen dancing}'' Check out my dance! Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! ''{The Cheat joins in}'' Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! ''{Homestar joins in}'' Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ahhh, this is the worst commentary ever!

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's what I've been saying this whole time!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, me too. Worst... commissary... ever.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{during the portion where components of the film are seen pogoing}'' At this point reality and fantasy have collided and everybody... pogos.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{as an animated Rondell walks up to an animated ATM}'' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{angry}'' What do you mean you tried to be as dumpy-accurate as possible?

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as Strong Bad is seen dancing, with the words "Real Smooth Moves" is seen above him}'' Let's talk about how "Real Smooth Moves" is like the best band name ever. The old Supreme Giants boys could take a cue from that one.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{as a muffin on a table is seen}'' I'm gonna take a cue from that kitchen table and go get me a blueb'ry muffin!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ohh, what a disaster. I hope I still get paid.

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===

*This toon was made for the first single from They Might Be Giants' tenth studio album ''[[TMBW:The Spine|The Spine]]''. The song is called [[TMBW:Experimental Film|Experimental Film]].
*The two head-tops belong to They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh and John Linnell. The one on the left is Flansburgh, as he has black hair and wears glasses, and the one on the right is Linnell.
*The answers for the "pop quiz" most likely refer to the [[Wikipedia:Cotton gin|cotton gin]], an invention that revolutionized the cotton-growing industry; [[Wikipedia:Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia|Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia]], a town famous as the location where the [[Wikipedia:American Civil War|American Civil War]] ended; and the all-time career record for home runs in [[Wikipedia:Major League Baseball|Major League Baseball]] (755), set by baseball player [[Wikipedia:Hank Aaron|Hank Aaron]]. The first question was "Are you all going to be in my experimental film?"

===Trivia===

*This toon was originally posted on [[The Brothers Chaps]]' [[Thorax:|thoraxcorp.com]], but was quickly taken down.
*This toon was released at approximately midnight, Atlanta time, on 13 July 2004—the release date of ''The Spine''.
*The joystick Homestar is using is for an [[Atari 2600]].
*According to [http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.07/play.html this Wired interview], TMBG were going to make a separate video for the [[Wikipedia:MTV|MTV]] crowd. Choice quote: "I feel like if MTV and Homestar collided, the world might explode." However, the H*R music video '''did''' air on MTV.
*Despite "resolving not to feel so bad about wanting to hit Homestar so much" (see Strong Sad's [[Strong Sad's Lament|Blog]]), the commentary shows the first time that Strong Sad has stood up to Homestar. As expected, Homestar doesn't take him very seriously.
*The first frame of the actual song is labeled "[[Glossary#V|viderostart]]" internally (this label is used by the commentary scripts).

===Glitches===

*Occasionally, the commentary will stop after about half of Strong Bad's first line, while the rest of the music in the background stays quieted. This continues throughout the entire cartoon.

===Remarks===

*The first line of the song is "The color of infinity inside an empty glass." Strong Sad's glass is full.
*Even though Strong Sad says he can't jump in his blog, he jumps here and in [[A Jumping Jack Contest]].
*For the shot of Strong Sad pointing the camera in the mirror at an angle to be possible, the view would have to be from a second camera filming this, or involve additional mirrors.
*In the commentary, Strong Bad comments that Gavin got as much screen time as he did, but in fact, Strong Bad has about 10 seconds of screen time, versus Gavin's 3 seconds.

===Goofs===

*When you click "Directed by Strong Sad and The Cheat" at the beginning for the commentary, it plays the normal video without commentary for a few seconds. It then goes back to the beginning and does the commentary.
*The first time the crowd uses the cards to make a picture of the Coffee Cup, at the bottom right corner on the second square up, the rim of the cup is yellow instead of white like the rest of the cup.
*The clock has six seconds between the three and the four.
**This adds to Strong Bad's argument during the commentary that "this part accurately represents what it feels like to watch this video."
*As Homestar prepares to run away from Strong Sad, if you look close, you can see that his leg is disconnected from his body.

===Inside References===

*When "It's a lion!" pops up for the first time, the lion is wearing Homestar's hat.
*Just before Homestar appears, the crowd flips the cards to a picture of an olive on a toothpick. This was the eye from the [[Homestar Jr.]] in [[Where's The Cheat?]]
*When the people in the grandstands flip the scenery cards to the mountain scene, it slightly resembles [[Main Page 2]].
*"Our gracious host" bears a striking resemblance to [[Monte Negro]] in [[Malloween Commercial]].
*When Homestar appears between the split screens, his lips move in such a way that he may be saying "[[Witches' Brew]]" yet again.

====They Might Be Giants References====

*United States presidents are [[TMBW:Presidents|a common theme]] in TMBG's work; they have no fewer than five songs about U.S. presidents and frequently mention presidents in songs and on stage. Their [http://www.tmbg.com website] is also presidentially themed.
**It should be noted, however, that while the band chose the album title ''Lincoln'' fully aware of its presidential overtones, the album is actually named after Lincoln, Massachusetts—the town where the two Johns grew up.
*Skulls (i.e. the Tentacle Skull seen riding the bicycle) are another [[TMBW:Skulls|frequent TMBG theme]]. In addition to being mentioned in several of their songs, it appears on the cover of their ''[[TMBW:Back To Skull|Back to Skull]]'' EP and on the back of their ''[[TMBW:John Henry|John Henry]]'' album. The skull might also be the [[TMBW:Skullivan|Skullivan]], as mentioned in the companion EP for ''The Spine'', ''[[TMBW:The Spine Surfs Alone (EP)|The Spine Surfs Alone]]''.
*[[TMBW:Coffee|Coffee]] is yet another common theme in the work of TMBG. The earliest videos and promotional matierials from the '80s show TMBG with cups of coffee. In the film ''[[TMBW:Gigantic|Gigantic]]'', TMBG confesses that they are insanely dependent on coffee.
*In the commentary, both Strong Bad and Homestar get TMBG's name totally wrong (both "Super Giants" and "Supreme Giants" are mentioned). This is, of course, [[TMBW:Monikers|not the first time this has happened]]. In fact, one of their early EPs included [[TMBW:Untitled|an answering machine message]] in which two people discuss "There Must Be Giants" and "There May Be Giants" and appear to be confused about the whole experience.
*The finger that comes up at one point might be a reference to the thumb on the cover of TMBG's [[TMBW:Dial-A-Song - 20 Years Of They Might Be Giants|"Dial-a-Song" album]], or perhaps the close-up of a cartoon finger pressing an elevator button in the video for "[[TMBW:(She Was A) Hotel Detective|(She Was a) Hotel Detective]]".
*The globe in the video is an nod to one of TMBG's more popular songs, [[TMBW:Ana Ng|Ana Ng]] in which a globe is reference in the beginning lines of the song.
*This is not the first time TMBG have worked with Flash accompaniment. Their children's album, "No!" (2002) was an enhanced CD, with 13 of the 17 songs having Flash animation complementing the music.
*Strong Sad falling through the spiral of presidents could be a poke at the lurics in [[TMBW:Spiraling Shape|Spiraling Shape]]. Example: ''"...And clawing at nothing you drop through the void..."''

===Real-World References===

*Strong Sad meeting the Grim Reaper through split screens is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Ingmar Bergman|Ingmar Bergman's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0050976|The Seventh Seal]]''.
*The scene with the film apparently burning (the one that Homestar credits to Strong Sad loading the film wrong) is a reference to Bergman's ''[[Wikipedia:Persona (film)|Persona]]''.
*Much of the imagery, and especially the scenes of Strong Sad watching film sprocket holds go by, is likely a reference to one of the first great experimental films, ''[[IMDB:tt0019760|The Man with a Movie Camera]]'' by [[Wikipedia:Dziga Vertov|Dziga Vertov]], which has a section in which the sides of the film are exposed, and the characters look outside their own frame/world at the holes running by.
*Ants (actually little The Cheats) crawling out of holes in Strong Sad's hands is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Luis Buñuel|Luis Buñuel's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0020530| Un Chien Andalou]]'' ("An Andalusian Dog") co-directed by famous surrealist painter [[Wikipedia:Salvador Dalí|Salvador Dalí]].
*Strong Sad shaving himself is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Jørgen Leth|Jørgen Leth's]] short film ''[[IMDB:tt0376821| Det perfekte menneske]]'' ("The Perfect Human").
*In the commentary, Strong Bad interrupts Strong Sad with the phrase "Boring Johnny and the Get Bored Crew". This is most likely a reference to the hip hop group "[[Wikipedia:Doug E. Fresh|Doug E. Fresh]] And The Get Fresh Crew".
*Homestar can be found playing a game much like ''[[Wikipedia:Space Invaders|Space Invaders]]'', only with presidents instead of aliens, as well as a dollar sign instead of a tank.
*The swinging lightbulb is from the famous penultimate scene in [[Wikipedia:Alfred Hitchcock|Hitchcock's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0054215|Psycho]]'', where Vera Miles finds Norman Bates' partially-preserved dead mother in the fruit cellar. The oscillating shadows that result are re-created in various places in the video/animation.
*Another Hitchcock film nod is made to ''[[IMDB:tt0052357|Vertigo]]'', when Strong Sad falls out of the film and into a descending spiral of presidential faces.
*The Tentacle-Skull can be seen riding a [[Wikipedia:Penny-farthing|penny-farthing]] bicycle.
*When Homestar is agreeing with Strong Bad, he says "Worst...commissary...ever." A [[Wikipedia:Commissary|Commissary]] is a grocery market, located only on army posts.

==DVD Version==
*The DVD version features two commentaries by Strong Sad, The Cheat, Strong Bad, and Homestar Runner. The first is available on the website and is transcribed above. The second is transcribed below. To access them, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.

===Commentary Transcript===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Strong Sad]], [[The Cheat]], [[Strong Bad]], [[Homestar Runner]])

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, hello. This is Strong Sad.

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' And that's The Cheat, and we're gonna talk about this video. Oh, geez, it's already started. So the guys approached me to do a video for "Experimental Film", so I shot my own experimental film but the, uh, the glasses guy said that it was too much of a total drag, so they brought The Cheat on board to, as they said, "make it quit sucking," which I guess is an industry term, I dunno...

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, The Cheat wants you to know that he did this part. I think they probably figured that out. ''{The images of John Flansburgh and John Linnell's heads appear.}'' There he is! That glasses guy. You really dig those extreme climates, huh? The desert, the arctic, ''{As this is said, the scene shifts to the arctic.}'' football stadiums... So this scene is dealing with man's indecision and apathy.

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, that scene was dealing with hitting coffee with a drumstick, eh?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{"Our Gracious Host" appears.}'' Okay, The Cheat, come clean. Who is that creepy guy in the picture frame?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Who's Stephan?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, I can see he's "Our gracious host"! But what does he have to do with anything?

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

'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, whatever keeps you off the streets. ''{The Pop Quiz appears.}'' Let's see, those questions were, "How many home runs did Hank Aaron have?", "Where did Lee surrender to Grant?", "What did Eli Whitney invent?", and "Are you going to be in my experimental film?" What class is that for?!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, hello there, chumps!

'''STRONG SAD:''' What are you guys doing here?!

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm here to save this commentary from a death worse than... Strong Sad commentary.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' And I'm just here ridin' all y'all's coat tails.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, maybe you could tell me how you got that video game to come up on the ATM!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Maybe I'm some type of magic video game man. Maybe you should start dealing with that, Strong Sad.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Man, I wish I grabbed some of that black-and-white cash!

'''STRONG SAD:''' That was Monopoly money!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, but, I'm gonna... ''{coughs}'' uh, sneeze. Yeah, black-and-white Monopoly money! That stuff is priceless! I'd be livin' on Baltic Avenue!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, this part's all about rebirth and new life...

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, yeah, whatever. This part comin' up here is all about my new dance, The Side-swipe! ''{The dancing scene with Homestar, Strong Bad, and Strong Mad appears.}'' Check it out! Mm! Ah! Ooh side-swipe!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Sad.

'''STRONG SAD:''' What?!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Sad.

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''What?!''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Umm... it's a lion. ''{As he says this, "It's a lion" appears in the football stands.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{A somewhat lengthy set of The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah, that was very insightful, The Cheat!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Yeah, yeah, totally!

'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, so what kinda soup was that? Like, tomato-basil or some kind of bisque?

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooh! Mulligatawny!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Can we talk about something artistic?

'''STRONG BAD:''' No, but we can talk about how "Real Smooth Moves" is, like, the best band name I ever heard. These Super Giant guys should change their name from "Super Giant" to "Real Smooth Moves." That's a band name!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, I'm outta here! Hope I still get paid!

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

Everybody knows it's true. 
Oh yeah. 
And work out twice a day.

'''FLANSBURGH:''' All right, so uh...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks guys. Thanks for coming to my studio. ''{shifts right to see Matt holding the Homestar puppet. Marty Beller gets up and walks over to Homestar}''

'''LINNELL:''' ''{laughs}''

'''BELLER:''' You've got quite a nice hat.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' No, not anymore, it broke on the plane. ''{Beller attempts to spin the propeller, but it doesn't.}''

'''LINNELL:''' Awww...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...so this one's made of posterboard. It's supposed to be plastic.

'''LINNELL:''' Bummer.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah. It's my buzzer. Usually I ask people to spin my buzzer. ''{camera starts to shift left, and Flansburgh is seen walking over to Matt and rolling his sleeves up. The camera starts to fade to black.}'' It's like, it's like telling them to sit on it. ''{fades out}'' I'm like, SPIN MY BUZZER! It's how I mouth off.

'''LINNELL:''' Does Homestar go in the luggage?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I do. I've been in a duffel bag all morning.

=== Trivia ===
*This is the only [[Puppet Stuff]] cartoon where you can see Matt Chapman.

=== Remarks ===
*Homestar speaking after the screen fades out references the end of the song, where he says he likes "to talk over the end".
*Judging by what Homestar and TMBG say, this is probably the last song of the whole recording session.

:'''ANDREW:''' Adios to 5 hit points. Trogdor has badly wounded you.

:'''GILES:''' Well, wait a minute. What about my... ''{puts on glasses}'' bag of illusions?

:'''ANDREW:''' ''{scoffs}'' Illusions against a Burninator? Silly, silly British man. ''{Giles sips his wine again.}''

:'''AMANDA:''' I invoke a time flux on Trogdor.

== Monster House ==
In an episode of ''Monster House'' called "[http://www.tvtome.com/MonsterHouse/season1.html#ep18 Sports House]," the host Steve is wearing a Strong Bad T-shirt during the introductions. This episode first aired February 2, 2004.
In the Christmas House episode, a group of 'carolers' from across the neighborhood sings for the people living in the house. One girl is wearing a Strong Bad T-shirt.

== Pulse ==
In early 2004 the show Pulse on G4TechTV talked with the Brothers Chaps, and asked them about the new game that they are developing for the Atari 2600. They showed many video clips of their Atari game. The Chaps talked about how they record their voices and how successful they have been. They announced that later this year they are going to release a DVD with the first hundred emails. After the commercial break, the hosts interviewed the company that is developing the Homestar Runner game, Videlectrix, which was really just one of the Brothers Chaps wearing a fake mustache.

== Ripley's Believe it or Not! ==
In a segment talking about painted [[Wikipedia:Silicon Chip|silicon computer chips]], one of the examples shown has [[Strong Bad]] painted on it.

== The Boy ==
*There was an episode with "Compu" written on a game box.

== The Screen Savers ==
*An episode of The Screen Savers on G4TechTV featured a guest who is making a [[Homestar Runner RPG]] for the Atari 2600, which is still in development.

In this episode, puppet Strong Bad made his debut to answer questions from fans. The article also mentions that in order to learn more than one ever thought possible about [[Homestar Runner (Flash cartoon)|Homestar Runner]], one can head over to the Homestar Runner Wiki.

== Survivor: Pearl Islands ==
When Ryan Shoulders picks up some tree mail (the show's system of getting messages to the castaways), he sings the opening to SB Email [[techno]], singing it as "the tree mail, the tree mail, what, what, the tree mail."

== The Tonight Show with Jay Leno ==
Leno was showing examples of absurd eBay auctions and having the audience guess whether they sold or not. One of them was a laptop that had been shot with a shotgun. Its subject line said "LIKE USED! SLIGHTLY SHOTGUNNED!" like the tags on the similarly shotgunned Compy at the end of [[virus]]. It sold.

== WonderShowzen ==
In an episode of an alternative-style televison show, "Wondershowzen," a puppet named Chauncey, in one of many skits, informed the number Two that if she didn't stop talking, he would 'Puke his Pants.' Number Two proceeded to leave the screen.

== X-Play ==
On an episode of G4TechTV's ''X-Play'', the wrestling game "WWE: Day of Reckoning" is reviewed. To demo the "create your own wrestler" mode, the reviewers create a wrestler that looks suspiciously like Strong Bad, and appears to be named "ESSBEE".

Puppet Jam: Everybody Knows It

MrsCommanderson — Thu, 18 May 2006 01:36:06 GMT

MrsCommanderson: Transcript: I'm pretty sure that was Linnell... Correct me if I'm wrong-- Man, this is HARD!

[[Image:Puppet Jam 7.JPG|thumb|right|220px|"We recorded some solid hits!"]]
{{about|[[Puppet Jam]]}} {{for|Puppet Stuff|Everybody Knows It}}
'''Everybody Knows It''' is the seventh and final installment of Puppet Jam with [[They Might Be Giants]] and is exclusive to [[Everything Else, Volume 1]] DVD.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' John "flans" Flansburgh on guitar, John "linnell" Linnell on accordion, Marty "marty" Beller on skins, Puppet [[Homestar Runner|Homestar "homeslice" Runner]] on vox

'''Running Time:''' 2:38

==Transcript==

'''FLANSBURGH:''' ''{talking to Linnel}'' So, let's do it four times, then go up an chord, then four times and back down. So it goes 'round and round, and then we go back down.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{says at the same time as Flansburgh, after he says "'Round and round"}'' 'Round and round. ''{singing}'' 'Round and round, with love we'll find a way...

'''LINNELL:''' Ok, I'll just follow you.

''{They Might Be Giants starts to play}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing}'' Everybody knows it 
Everybody knows it 
Everybody knows it's true. 
Oh yeah. 
And work out twice a day.

''{Homestar pauses, and Flansburgh stops to play, while Linnell continues.}''

'''FLANSBURGH:''' ''{laughs}'' I feel like I was offset by, like, one beat.

'''LINNELL:''' Yeah, me too.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah. Me too. I was followin' ''your'' lead. And we were both off together. Yeah.

'''FLANSBURGH:''' Here we go, one more time!

'''LINNELL:''' This is gonna be the one.

''{starts to play}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing}'' Everybody knows it 
Everybody knows it 
Everybody knows it's true. 
Oh yeah. 
And work out twice a day. 
Don't ask me why I said it, 
'Cause I already forgot.

''{Flansburgh and Linnell speed up gradually}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing}'' I ALREADY FORGOT! I ALREADY FORGOT! 
I can't remember yesterday, 
I only remember Steve! 
I can't remember Steve now! 
''{Stops singing, and TMBG stops playing}'' Now I remember... April! Not a girl, the month! April! 
I always talk over the end. Does that ruin them?

'''LINNELL:''' No, that was the keeper.

'''FLANSBURGH:''' I think our job is done here.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah man, we recorded some solid hits! ''{"High fives" the Johns, by just moving closer. A high-five sound is heard}'' Put 'em on wax! Oh! Call the union! Call the Orkin army.

'''LINNELL:''' Textile union, local 802.

'''FLANSBURGH:''' All right, so uh...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks guys. Thanks for coming to my studio. ''{shifts right to see Matt holding the Homestar puppet. Marty Beller gets up and walks over to Homestar}''

'''LINNELL:''' ''{laughs}''

'''BELLER:''' You've got quite a nice hat.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' No, not anymore, it broke on the plane. ''{Beller attempts to spin the propeller, but it doesn't.}''

'''LINNELL:''' Awww...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...so this one's made of posterboard. It's supposed to be plastic.

'''LINNELL:''' Bummer.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah. It's my buzzer. Usually I ask people to spin my buzzer. ''{camera starts to shift left, and Flansburgh is seen walking over to Matt and rolling his sleeves up. The camera starts to fade to black.}'' It's like, it's like telling them to sit on it. ''{fades out}'' I'm like, SPIN MY BUZZER! It's how I mouth off.

'''LINNELL:''' Does Homestar go in the luggage?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I do. I've been in a duffel bag all morning.

'''LINNELL:''' That's your signature uh...

''{Cut to the end paper.}''

== Fun Facts ==
=== Trivia ===
*This is the only [[Puppet Stuff]] cartoon where you can see Matt Chapman.

=== Remarks ===
*Homestar speaking after the screen fades out references the end of the song, where he says he likes "to talk over the end".
*Judging by what Homestar and TMBG say, this is probably the last song of the whole recording session.

Coach Z

MrsCommanderson — Wed, 10 May 2006 20:45:45 GMT

MrsCommanderson: I think this isn't "formatted" correctly... so I'm gonna fix it. Correct it if I'm not right. =D Thanks.

{{charnav|Coach Z|cz|Marzipan|Bubs}}
[[Image:coach-z.png|thumb|right|200px|"You can't just rush into the score zone!"]]

==Biography==
'''Coach Z''' is the "[[Wikipedia:Coach (sport)|coach]]" of Homestar Runner and the gang, though it is unclear just which sports he coaches. He has a strong [[Wikipedia:Upper Midwest|Upper Midwestern]] [[Wikipedia:American English regional differences#North Central American English|accent]] which sometimes gets him into trouble. He almost never says anything negative to anyone, and he often offers more encouragement than is needed. When giving advice, he almost always starts with the phrase "You can't just rush into the score zone", which by now has pretty much lost its meaning. He wears a baseball cap and is famous for the large Z emblem around his waist, but nobody knows for sure whether his bright green color is his skin or a body suit (although the picture to the right might give a clue- apparently baby Coach Z is wearing footy pajamas).
[[Image:Babycz.PNG|thumb|The craptain of the foortball torm!]]

As Coach Z himself is not afraid to admit, he's got [[Spin 'n Say|more than two problems]]. Despite being a coach, he doesn't know what a basketball is, as indicated in [[secret recipes]]. It has been implied that he has a crush on [[Marzipan]], and he has on several occasions left inappropriate messages on [[Marzipan's Answering Machine|her answering machine]], including [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 5.0|one occasion]] where he was drunk. (Further evidence of his drinking problem is his consumption of mouthwash in [[The Best Decemberween Ever]].) Additionally, he had to apologize to her in the [[Fall Float Parade]] for "inapprapriate" comments. In addition to his frequent mispronunciations, Coach Z also seems to have mental problems, as evidenced by the time he spent "talking to his parents" on a [[Disconnected Telephones|disconnected telephone]], and claiming to be a mother in [[garage sale]]. He has even stated on [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 8.0|one occasion]] that he sometimes "forgets what's real, and what's just in his head". He also apparently has trouble managing his money, causing his electricity to be shut off each year. He works with [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Bubs]] as the apparent local law enforcement in [[Free Country, USA]], and he makes frequent jokes and references about [[Pants|pants]], whether his own or someone else's.

Coach Z is a fan of hip-hop and rap music, particularly the [[Wikipedia:Wu-Tang Clan|Wu-Tang Clan]]. He fancies himself a rapper as well: He released the single "[[These peoples try to fade me|These Peoples Try to Fade Me]]," which appeared on [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], and his solo album, entitled "The Z Is All Up Ins", features the smash hit "[[Hip Hop Dance]]."

Coach Z and Bubs apparently had a falling out at one point, as [[Fall Float Parade]] tells us.

*'''Domicile:''' [[Coach Z's Locker Room]]

== Character Video Transcript ==
''{'''Page Title''': Drop Down and Gimme 20!!}'' ''{'''Places:''' [[Coach Z's Locker Room]]}''

'''COACH Z:''' ''{looking slightly offscreen}'' Is that thing on? ''{turns to the camera lens}'' Hey there, ho there! I'm the Coach! The Coach Z, I'd guess you'd call me. Or plain old Coach is fine, seein' as I'm the only one around, so, probably no one else would answer to that. You say "Hey Coach!", and I'd say "Yeah?" or..."That's me!" or..."Hoo-hah!" ''{waves his arms in the air}'' Any one of those. There's rumors flyin' around that I sleep in one of these lockers ''{gestures to the lockers behind him}'', but uh, that's just not true. I usually crash on this bench here. ''{gestures to the bench behind him}'' My back's not in real good condition. ''{rubs his back}'' And now, I'd like to perform my hip-hop single, "These peoples try to fade me." ''{holds up a microphone, begins to sing}'' A one-two, a one-two—!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{appears in front of camera}'' Sorry. We're all out of tape.

==Coach Z's Accent==
The primary factor in his hilarity, Coach Z's Upper Midwestern accent has made him into a very quotable character.

===Phonetic Sounds Affected===
The most commonly mispronounced sounds are long /e/ (i.e. The Cheat) and the short /o/ (job), which both come out as an "or" or "aer" ("The Chort", "jaerb").

===Inconsistencies===

Evidence has suggested that Coach Z's accent may be bogus:
*After saying "track or trort" in [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]], Bubs gets on his case and he says it correctly. If given "Swedish Fish," said as "Swordish Forsh," Bubs gets on his case again and Coach Z says "It's a crowd-pleaser."
*In [[boring (really)]], while Strong Bad is writing his list of three-letter words, Coach Z interrupts him at the word "job", saying that "jorb is a four letters word."
*Coach Z says "The Cheat" immediately after "The Chort" in [[mascot]], though he speaks as though he's talking about two separate characters.
*In the DVD commentary for [[part-time job]], Mike exploits Coach Z's "accent" by implying that not only does Coach Z add the letter R to words, but now also likes to switch letters around sometimes, and in reply Coach Z partially admits to his accent being bogus.
**Furthermore, Marzipan implies in [[Fall Float Parade]] that Coach Z's way of speaking may just be a made-up language all in itself ("That's Pom Pom Balloon, for those of you who don't speak Coach Z").

MrsCommanderson: /* They Might Be Giants Reference */

== First Impressions ==
Okay, everybody, I have the benefit of being a timezone where it made sense to be awake when DMIII was released. Thus, I have started the article. This is my first ever HRWiki edit, so I tried not to be too ambitious. I'm sure you will have filled in the rest by the time I finish typing this. Thank you! [[User:Matthew McVickar|Matthew McVickar]] 10:26, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Hey everybody, this is the kid who made that one [http://s88340807.onlinehome.us/~bkr/archives/2004/02/24/thy_dungeonman_2_walkthrough.php walkthrough] for Thy Dungeonman II way back when. I was looking for a way to kill time between CS assignments at 2:00 AM and found that the Bros Chaps released a new Dungeonman game! Here is the basic sequence of steps: I know this awesome community will flesh it out. Thanks guys! [[User:The Lyrical Wondermind|The Lyrical Wondermind]] 10:43, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Best Dungeonman ever. - [[User:Volbeat A The Cheat|Volbeat A The Cheat]] 12:09, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
:I'll second this. This is the first one in the series that felt like a real Adventure-style game, rather than more of a series of jokes (not that there's anything wrong with series of jokes, either). | [[User:Totoro|Totoro]] 22:14, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

== Canonical name ==

I think these pages need to be moved to [[Thy Dungeonman 3]] (with the arabic numeral instead of the roman numeral). First of all, and most importantly, the actual title screen uses the numeral 3. In addition, the [[Videlectrix:videlectrix_catalog.html|game catalog]] lists a 3. I realize the [[Videlectrix:videlectrix_gallery.html|box art]] has a III, but that shouldn't outweigh what's displayed in the actual game, should it? — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:23, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
:Probably not. Though they should be left as redirects. {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 16:29, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
::The first title one would normally see is the box title, not the in-game title. I'd leave it as is. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 16:32, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
:::The only place it says III is on the box. ''Everywhere'' in the game it's referred to as 3. The updates button refers to it as 3. I vote for the move, keeping redirects. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 16:40, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
::::Qermaq: I didn't think of this earlier, but most people wouldn't even ''see'' the box art (you have to dig around Videlectrix to find it), whereas everyone who plays the game will see the title screen. Therefore, people searching for the game here will be using a 3. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:43, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
:::::The liberty TBC have taken with using roman/arabic numerals leads me to conclude that it's okay to use them interchangeably for this game. I would rather keep our counting method the same rather than duplicate what we see on the game's title screen. I would like it for us to have articles for Thy Dungeonman II and III, or Thy Dungeonman 2 and 3. I can't stand to see it both ways. —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 19:38, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
::::::I think it's more TBC's style to ''intentionally'' mix roman and arabic numerals. I think our need should be to get it right as it appears on the title screen, not by some arbitrary counting system. Coincidentally, it was I [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Thy_Dungeonman_II&diff=157446&oldid=146992 who noticed] that Thy Dungeonman II's title screen uses a roman numeral. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:14, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
:::::::Thy Dungeonman isn't the [[Wikipedia:Doom|only]] game [[Wikipedia:Descent (computer game)|series]] to use II and 3 in their game titles. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 05:28, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
::::::::Also, we've got the nonmatching Duck Guardians ("[[Duck Guardian One|One]]" and "[[Duck Guardian 2|2]]"). — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:38, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

== fake blood, um i mean fake ketchup. ==

kinda funny, using fake ketchup for fake blood... {{User:Csours/sig}} 19:16, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

I had a similar glitch; here's how I worked around it. The scrapbook first had two haglets, and it accepted 2 as the answer, but I missed the final question and had to restart. I looked at the scrapbook again and this time it had 4 haglets. I answered 4, but it didn't accept it. So I started again (again), looked at the scrapbook (still 4), then answered 2 and it worked. So perhaps the first # of haglets is persistent. | [[User:Totoro|Totoro]] 13:26, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

== Older games like this? ==

I seem to remember playing a game like this in middle school about twelve years ago on an old Apple II (the game was probably old even then). It was 2D, and it sported a series of monochrome drawings (or maybe it was just the monitor that was monochrome, I dunno) and crude animation (two frames for walking). You were a guy exploring a castle, and you had to collect items and solve puzzles. I remember barely anything about it, except that you could go up and down stairs and I think one of the objects was a magic goblet. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? :p [[User:68.33.67.116|68.33.67.116]] 04:03, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

== Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy? ==

"'Corn in thy ear' is a reference to an episode of Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy (entitled Scrambled Ed) in which Ed says 'Do you have corn in your ears, mister?'"

:That's a common phrase... --{{User:Venusy/Sig}} 20:49, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

::::I'm pretty certain that the phrase was already in common use before Tolkien wrote The Hobbit. It's a very old phrase - I'd have to look this up, but I believe you can trace this phrase's roots all the way back to the Bible (Proverbs, specifically). As it is, it's generally considered a proverb of sorts. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 01:15, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
::::Definitely an older phrase that was in very common use long before The Hobbit. What makes it confusing is that when it appears in the book, Tolkien pretends that he's exposing its origins: It evolved from Bilbo's quote "Escaping goblins to be caught by wolves." Tolkien did this sort of thing a ''lot''. For example, his composition of the "original extended version" of Hey, Diddle Diddle (as The Man in the Moon Stayed Up Too Late), not to mention the stories that eventually became The Silmarillion, which were originally (before decades of reconception) intended as the lost prehistory of the British Isles. --[[User:TheNicestGuy|TheNicestGuy]] 14:57, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

::::::I'll agree with that, but the use of the phrase as a chapter title is a very, very weak connection at best.

Just a few examples: "[[Teen Girl Squad Issue 9|Quit bitin' my style!]]", [[Styles Upon Styles]], "[[technology|Strong Bad gots the style]]", [[Price Style]].

== They Might Be Giants Reference ==
I don't know how best to put this into the Wiki... One of the game's responses is "I don't understand you. I cannot understand you. I don't understand a thing you say. I can't understand a single word." These are lyrics from They Might Be Giants' "Fingertips".

== Behold Thy 5 1/4" Floppy Noise! ==

More specifically, that "floppy" noise is from an Apple II-series external floppy drive. (This does not include the Apple IIc or IIGS, which had internal drives.) And even more specifically, the drive would make that "sputtering" sound when the computer is first powered on or reset, or if there is no disk in the drive.

Which means, if TBC had wanted this to be more lifelike, they would have included a quieter sound where you could hear the drive power up and the head seeking back and forth across the disk. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 20:52, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

== Better placement of references? ==

The Inside and Real-world References are pretty big, and I'm sure they're not done growing. Since so many of them explain specific commands and responses, it's difficult to describe the context briefly and clearly. At the same time, there's the danger of spoilers, which I assume we'd like to avoid on this page. Call me a radical, but I think it makes a lot more sense to move most of them to the [[Thy Dungeonman 3 Commands|Commands]] and [[Thy Dungeonman 3 Messages|Messages]] pages, and furthermore to attach them directly to their relevant game text, rather than lumping them all into a separate section. I'll admit that it could clutter up those pages, but consider that we would no longer need to explain what we're talking about before we explain what the thing we're talking about is talking about. Opinions? If there's a concensus, I'll volunteer to tackle it. --[[User:TheNicestGuy|TheNicestGuy]] 15:29, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
:How about like we did with [[Stinkoman 20X6]]? [[Stinkoman 20X6 Real-World References]], etc. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 17:43, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
::This page doesn't really need special formatting. The Fun Facts list isn't ''nearly'' as large as the one for Stinkoman 20X6, and a site like this shouldn't be concerned about spoilers. The entire site is a potential spoiler. And I think the Fun Facts entries are just about finished. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 17:54, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
:::Yeah, the so-called facts that are being added now border on being major stretches. As for being spoiled, if you don't want to know, you shouldn't be looking at the wiki page, plain and simple. When the game premiered, I didn't have time to play it right away, so I avoided these pages altogether. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:13, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Okay, never mind the spoiler argument. Nevertheless, with the current organization it is difficult to connect each reference to its location in the game. It works for toons, since they are both smaller in scope and linear. References fit in a manageable list, and can be ordered chronologically for convenience. Here, however, we have a larger list, poorly-defined chronology, and (worst of all) the content the references explain is not even on the same page. That doesn't make sense to me. Seriously, look at the Inside References. For most of them half of the space is taken up just building the context, and for the rest, unless you've got the game memorized, you have to either settle for insufficient context or hunt through one or two rather large pages to find it. Why not just move them where the context would be obvious? What are the advantages of this organization, other than consistency with the toon pages? --[[User:TheNicestGuy|TheNicestGuy]] 20:10, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

== Kigalonian = Xigbar? ==

Is it just me, or does the version of Kigalonian with the eyepatch and scar bear a striking resemblance to the character [[Wikipedia::Xigbar#II._Xigbar|Xigbar]] from Kingdom Hearts II? ~[ [[User:Bruce|Bruce]] 00:56, 2 May 2006 (UTC) ]
: I doubt it's intentional, especially since there are a number of different appearances for Kiga. That, and Xigbar has a scar and eyepatch on the same side of his face, something that's impossible for Kiga. That that, and I really don't think it looks that much like Xigbar at all. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:46, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

== MYSTified ==

The ''Myst'' Fun Fact needs some work. It's had a troubled youth, getting reverted and rereverted. At one point, this got added: "the image in question being a parody of the one on Myst's original box art". However, the adder unhelpfully failed to specify '''the image in question'''! Since then, someone has added something about the screen where you get the flask. Not having a copy of Myst's original box art handy I can't say for sure, but what I remember is a tiny detail of a human silhouette falling (in a horizontal, flailing position) above the island; I seem to recall the same image appearing in Myst's intro sequence as you get zapped to the island. Conclusion: the "image in question" is really the "VOIP!" screen. Can anyone verify or at least opine? 
'''(edit):''' After looking more closely, I think that ''is'' what the current version means. It could be a lot clearer, though; the next sentence about touching things makes it sound like it was talking about the Some Sanctum screen. —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 06:50, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

:I fixed your userboxes on Wikipedia; you may want them in a different layout than the tower I put them in (like what I have on my userpage there), but at least now they aren't all over the place. {{User:Granola/sig}} 08:50, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Why thank you Granola, for fixing my user page, even if you didn't ask. i sent you a thank you note on your wiki user page. how do you pronounce your wiki user name? thanks again [[User:Nikolce Kocovski|Nikolce Kocovski]] 09:17, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
:Your welcome. It's pronounced "yell-tin-zik." (I answered it there, but I'm also answering it here, in case HRWikians also want to know...perhaps I should put that on my userpage(s), it occurs to me that no one would have any way of knowing...) {{User:Granola/sig}} 09:41, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

::And as for your userboxes not appearing on your userpage, it was probably because you didn't purge the cashe. When you add a userbox, if you want it to appear right away, go to [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=User:Nikolce_Kocovski&action=purge this link], and then it should appear. Feel free to copy this link and put it somewhere. You can also make this link by pressing edit on your userpage, then replacing "edit" in the url with "purge", and pressing enter. It's the same thing. Hope that helps! {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 15:49, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

I looked in Firefox and Opera, it looked good there now. How's it to you? ''{image deleted}'' {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 18:06, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

:It looks a bit small. I suppose that an image wouldn't really line up with the text, since it would depend on your screen resolution and other things, correct? If you'll look on my userpage, the thumb image with the caption "{{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}}"; the arrows from that look pretty close to the same as the arrow from your image.

==The Stairs==

Thunderbird, I am so, so sorry about the rating and stairs pages.
I am known on the bswiki to be a great editor and troll lookout.
I have never vandalized any wiki before. (Unless you count what I just did, but I thought you would be ok with that.) Anyway, I am great at protecting wikis, so could you give me a chance at being an admin to protect the greatest wiki I have ever known?--[[User:Bonusstagefreak|Bonusstagefreak]] 16:55, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

:Don't worry about it. When I first came here I was unsure of the rules for any wiki, and got myself blocked for a day. ;) I hope you turn out to be a great contributor. We don't get new sysops very often, usually less than 10 a year. Becoming a sysop is an admirable goal to work towards, and some general guidelines are written out in the [[HRWiki:FAQ|FAQ]]. We don't get new sysops very often, and being only a sysop, I don't have the power to promote users. I hope that you turn out to be a great user here though, let me know if you have any other questions. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 20:20, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Well, I can't seem to upload any images! It's driving me insane!--[[User:Bonusstagefreak|Bonusstagefreak]] 22:34, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

See [[HRWiki:Personal images|here]] for the regulations on personal images. To upload an image, there's an option on the sidebar, namely [[Special:Upload|this one]]. Generally use PNG images. If you're still having trouble, let me know. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 22:38, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I know, but whenever I give it the picture and click on "Upload File", It says that the file is corrupted. 
What should I do? I've tried uploading on at least
6 wikis, but everytime it gives me the same thing.--[[User:Bonusstagefreak|Bonusstagefreak/sig]] 22:47, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

:Then most likely the file is corrupted, and it shouldn't be uploaded. It could have a script or virus hidden in it, or it could be the wrong MIME type. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 23:11, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

:Thanks. That happened the night before Flashforward, after I had left IRC to get an early night in bed before the big day. I noticed on recent changes Dot com and Tom were doing some kind of username debugging. So instead of going to bed I lurked for a while, after every test username he created, I would add another "journal entry" to corrispond to it. Nice to know my work is appreciated. ;) {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 02:22, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

== HP PhotoSmart 315 ==

Hi Thunderbird. Was just going to remark that I have the same exact camera model as you. May I ask if you used ''all three diamonds'' when you took [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Image:Flashforward_TBC.JPG this pic]? I was wondering what other users of that camera preferred to use. And while I'm here, I'd like to ask if you've received a package from me yet. And would it be OK to congratulate a [[User:E.L. Cool|certain someone]] on his recent bundle of ''keychains and more'' from you? Thanks a bunch. {{User:The Paper/sig}} 17:29, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

:Hey man, long time no see! The camera is my parent's, it's around 4 years old, and I rarely use it. I really didn't know much about it, now that you mention the diamond thing, I seem to recall something about it, more diamonds means better quality, or something, right? As for how many I used, I didn't even think to change it or anything, so it really just depends on what the default is. I haven't recieved your package yet, but I'm looking forward to it. And in case you didn't realize, the ''and more'' is the reason why I requested the replacements for myself. ;) {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 02:48, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
::Yeah, more diamonds means improved resolution and quality. I just thought I'd ask since it's such an old camera and all— older than the First generation iPod, in fact. I really hope you'll receive the package soon, since it's been a while now. It must due to the geographical distance between us. And yeah, I realized the reason for you needing replacements. =) {{User:The Paper/sig}} 15:44, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

== Tablage ==

Hey, you commented on how [[Songs]] might benefit from tables. I agree with you, but haven't ever done that before. Can you point me to examples of tables I can kinda go by to make that happen? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 03:43, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

:[[Floppy Disk Container]] is one. Here's a table you can copy if you wish:

(The stuff at the top is technical stuff, but if you really want to be creative with your table try changing it around a bit. obviously "#eeeeee" means color, and most of those little one digit numbers mean how thick most of the table lines are)
<pre>
{| border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2 style="border-collapse:collapse"
|- bgcolor=#eeeeee
! Something !! Another Thing !! As Many Things As You Want !! Let's try four this time.
|- id="id_tags_are_optional_but_sometimes_useful"
| Then you can stick something here, maybe an image or whatever. || See the two vertical line break things? Stick them there to seperate the column. || just remember that however many of the breaks you make || Are the same number as the double ! breaks you make first to name the columns.
|- id="id_tags_are_just_used_to_link_to_a_specific_part_of_the_table"
| Remember that after your four (or however many columns you chose), press enter, add a vertical line break, and then a dash, then go enter again. || When starting a new line for your table, you have to start it with a ''single'' vertical line as well, like the single ! you put first when naming your columns to begin with. || || You can even make sections blank, but you still need the right number of double line breaks.
|- id="and_as_a_technical_point_ids_can_not_start_with_a_number"
| <-- Don't forget that line to start your column. || <-- Or that there's the same number of those sets of breaks as there are title columns, in this case four. || [[Image:RebootTurbo.PNG|150px|An Image in a table can't be a thumb or anything]] || Finish off your table with a new line, then...
|} 
</pre>

That all makes...

{| border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2 style="border-collapse:collapse"
|- bgcolor=#eeeeee
! Something !! Another Thing !! As Many Things As You Want !! Let's try four this time.
|- id="id_tags_are_optional_but_sometimes_useful"

|} 

I hope that helps! There's lots of other technical stuff you can do as well, such as making a table only a certain width, lots of color variations, etc, but if you want a basic table, that's the layout. Once you start a table, users are bound to come over and tweak it a bit later. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 16:48, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

== Contents Question==
Is it possible to get a contents for your user page? I see that you got one in this user talk but when I went to see what you put in to get one of em the only thing I saw seperating the "⇔Thunversations⇔" from this part of the conversation page was a in caps message about not editing above this line or haveing to face the rath of some undetermined fate. So I look all over everywhere I can't find anything in there that let's you have a contents box though I did realize that the URL is different. Am I overlooking something, Is the Box supplied when you get a long enough page, Are some pages just equiped with this from the begining? When I held my mouse over the hide / show button it reads "javascript:toggleToc()" and I know what javascript is. Whenever i go to edit something I look at where the contents are and... it pulls a Houdini.... upon hiting the "Show preview" thing It includes this in the contents. If you don't mind clearing this up for my that would be appriciated.

:The top line regarding Thundery rath and all that, is just to protect my Talk archives navigation template, so you can go from month to month of old conversations. The reason my userpage does not have a table of contents, is simple. If you look at the very bottom of the code (by clicking "edit" but not saving it) I put at the bottom a little <nowiki>"__NOTOC__"</nowiki>. What that does, is prevents a table of contents from appearing. "Don't ask me why I did it... Because I already forgot." Now whether they appear or not, is somewhere under your personal preferences, the same place you set your sig, etc. You choose in your personal settings to display Tables of Contents or not. If you choose to show them, then once a page gets more than three headers (A header is defined by a little edit tag so you can edit the sub section), then it will display a table of contents for you. Putting <nowiki>"__TOC__", "__NOTOC__" or "__FORCETOC__"</nowiki> on a page will override your preferences. The first one will make the TOC appear after a page has three headings (regardless of what you have selected in your preferences), the second one will not allow the TOC to appear, and the third one will cause a TOC to appear on the page even when there's less than three headings. Some of these are used on pages around the wiki, for instance you'll notice [[H*R.com updates 2005|The updates pages]] shouldn't have tables of contents whether it's selected under preferences for you or not. Since that page has so many headings, a TOC would be very long, therefore we use <nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki>. But whether they appear or not, they're automatically generated, you won't see a code for them or anything. I hope that answers your question Yoshi, let me know if you have any others. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 07:45, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

::To clarify: normally a page will automatically get a TOC just before the first heading if there are ''more than 3'' headings on the page (provided it's turned on in [[Special:Preferences|your prefs]]). <code><nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki></code> forces there to be no TOC, <code><nowiki>__FORCETOC__</nowiki></code> forces there to be a TOC, and <code><nowiki>__TOC__</nowiki></code> forces there to be a TOC ''and'' moves the TOC to where you wrote <code><nowiki>__TOC__</nowiki></code> (instead of the normal place, between the opening text and the first heading). This lets you do fancy things, like <code><nowiki><div style="float:right">__TOC__</div></nowiki></code> to get a floating TOC (like on my talk page). On a tangent, is a similar tag, <code><nowiki>__NOEDITSECTION__</nowiki></code>, which stops the [edit] links from appearing next to the headers. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 07:56, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Anything happen to you?

:Hi Nikolce. Though I don't actually celebrate Easter, I do observe something similar, and I appreciate the sentiment.

I noticed NYU Talk on your unfinished jobs. I have the DVD of it as was planning on doing it. You want to do it together? {{User:Dacheatbot/sig}} 21:57, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

:Actually, I've been planning on getting around to it, but I'm still gonna be pretty busy for the next few days. What I was planning, was instead of trying to transcribe the whole thing, summarize it in the same fashion as the Flashforward page. Not only is that easier to write, as you can listen to a minute of it and then summarize without going over it repeatedly, but I find it's also an easier read than a terribly long mega-page. If you want to try and get some done in that way, go ahead. I'll also try and get it done sometime later, and I'm sure various users would go over what you write and fix any spelling or grammatical errors. That's what they did for me. :) {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 22:54, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
::Good Idea. Can I do it with you? {{User:Dacheatbot/sig}} 23:01, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

:If there is an active vandal, most likely there is a sysop watching recent changes who will block him without prompting.

If that fails, you could also try alerting somebody on the [[HRWiki:IRC channel|IRC]]. If even that fails, and the vandalism continues for more than 10 or 15 minutes, then likely by some bizzare happening there are no sysops here at all. Then you may leave a message on my talk page. But even then, it probably won't do any good, since by the time I log in and see it, most likely another capable sysop will already have logged in, seen the problem, and blocked them.

Hi Thunderbird. Was just going to remark that I have the same exact camera model as you. May I ask if you used ''all three diamonds'' when you took [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Image:Flashforward_TBC.JPG this pic]? I was wondering what other users of that camera preferred to use. And while I'm here, I'd like to ask if you've received a package from me yet. And would it be OK to congratulate a [[User:E.L. Cool|certain someone]] on his recent bundle of ''keychains and more'' from you? Thanks a bunch. {{User:The Paper/sig}} 17:29, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

:Hey man, long time no see! The camera is my parent's, it's around 4 years old, and I rarely use it. I really didn't know much about it, now that you mention the diamond thing, I seem to recall something about it, more diamonds means better quality, or something, right? As for how many I used, I didn't even think to change it or anything, so it really just depends on what the default is. I haven't recieved your package yet, but I'm looking forward to it. And in case you didn't realize, the ''and more'' is the reason why I requested the replacements for myself. ;) {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 02:48, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
::Yeah, more diamonds means improved resolution and quality. I just thought I'd ask since it's such an old camera and all— older than the First generation iPod, in fact. I really hope you'll receive the package soon, since it's been a while now. It must due to the geographical distance between us. And yeah, I realized the reason for you needing replacements. =) {{User:The Paper/sig}} 15:44, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

== Tablage ==

Hey, you commented on how [[Songs]] might benefit from tables. I agree with you, but haven't ever done that before. Can you point me to examples of tables I can kinda go by to make that happen? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 03:43, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

:[[Floppy Disk Container]] is one. Here's a table you can copy if you wish:

(The stuff at the top is technical stuff, but if you really want to be creative with your table try changing it around a bit. obviously "#eeeeee" means color, and most of those little one digit numbers mean how thick most of the table lines are)
<pre>
{| border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2 style="border-collapse:collapse"
|- bgcolor=#eeeeee
! Something !! Another Thing !! As Many Things As You Want !! Let's try four this time.
|- id="id_tags_are_optional_but_sometimes_useful"
| Then you can stick something here, maybe an image or whatever. || See the two vertical line break things? Stick them there to seperate the column. || just remember that however many of the breaks you make || Are the same number as the double ! breaks you make first to name the columns.
|- id="id_tags_are_just_used_to_link_to_a_specific_part_of_the_table"
| Remember that after your four (or however many columns you chose), press enter, add a vertical line break, and then a dash, then go enter again. || When starting a new line for your table, you have to start it with a ''single'' vertical line as well, like the single ! you put first when naming your columns to begin with. || || You can even make sections blank, but you still need the right number of double line breaks.
|- id="and_as_a_technical_point_ids_can_not_start_with_a_number"
| <-- Don't forget that line to start your column. || <-- Or that there's the same number of those sets of breaks as there are title columns, in this case four. || [[Image:RebootTurbo.PNG|150px|An Image in a table can't be a thumb or anything]] || Finish off your table with a new line, then...
|} 
</pre>

That all makes...

{| border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2 style="border-collapse:collapse"
|- bgcolor=#eeeeee

|- id="id_tags_are_optional_but_sometimes_useful"

|} 

I hope that helps! There's lots of other technical stuff you can do as well, such as making a table only a certain width, lots of color variations, etc, but if you want a basic table, that's the layout. Once you start a table, users are bound to come over and tweak it a bit later. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 16:48, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

== Contents Question==
Is it possible to get a contents for your user page? I see that you got one in this user talk but when I went to see what you put in to get one of em the only thing I saw seperating the "⇔Thunversations⇔" from this part of the conversation page was a in caps message about not editing above this line or haveing to face the rath of some undetermined fate. So I look all over everywhere I can't find anything in there that let's you have a contents box though I did realize that the URL is different. Am I overlooking something, Is the Box supplied when you get a long enough page, Are some pages just equiped with this from the begining? When I held my mouse over the hide / show button it reads "javascript:toggleToc()" and I know what javascript is. Whenever i go to edit something I look at where the contents are and... it pulls a Houdini.... upon hiting the "Show preview" thing It includes this in the contents. If you don't mind clearing this up for my that would be appriciated.

:The top line regarding Thundery rath and all that, is just to protect my Talk archives navigation template, so you can go from month to month of old conversations. The reason my userpage does not have a table of contents, is simple. If you look at the very bottom of the code (by clicking "edit" but not saving it) I put at the bottom a little <nowiki>"__NOTOC__"</nowiki>. What that does, is prevents a table of contents from appearing. "Don't ask me why I did it... Because I already forgot." Now whether they appear or not, is somewhere under your personal preferences, the same place you set your sig, etc. You choose in your personal settings to display Tables of Contents or not. If you choose to show them, then once a page gets more than three headers (A header is defined by a little edit tag so you can edit the sub section), then it will display a table of contents for you. Putting <nowiki>"__TOC__", "__NOTOC__" or "__FORCETOC__"</nowiki> on a page will override your preferences. The first one will make the TOC appear after a page has three headings (regardless of what you have selected in your preferences), the second one will not allow the TOC to appear, and the third one will cause a TOC to appear on the page even when there's less than three headings. Some of these are used on pages around the wiki, for instance you'll notice [[H*R.com updates 2005|The updates pages]] shouldn't have tables of contents whether it's selected under preferences for you or not. Since that page has so many headings, a TOC would be very long, therefore we use <nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki>. But whether they appear or not, they're automatically generated, you won't see a code for them or anything. I hope that answers your question Yoshi, let me know if you have any others. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 07:45, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

::To clarify: normally a page will automatically get a TOC just before the first heading if there are ''more than 3'' headings on the page (provided it's turned on in [[Special:Preferences|your prefs]]). <code><nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki></code> forces there to be no TOC, <code><nowiki>__FORCETOC__</nowiki></code> forces there to be a TOC, and <code><nowiki>__TOC__</nowiki></code> forces there to be a TOC ''and'' moves the TOC to where you wrote <code><nowiki>__TOC__</nowiki></code> (instead of the normal place, between the opening text and the first heading). This lets you do fancy things, like <code><nowiki><div style="float:right">__TOC__</div></nowiki></code> to get a floating TOC (like on my talk page). On a tangent, is a similar tag, <code><nowiki>__NOEDITSECTION__</nowiki></code>, which stops the [edit] links from appearing next to the headers. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 07:56, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

:Hi Nikolce. Though I don't actually celebrate Easter, I do observe something similar, and I appreciate the sentiment. Not much has happened lately, except that I've been looking after somebody's house and dog while they're in Italy. Talk to you later, {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 02:14, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

== NYU Talk ==

I noticed NYU Talk on your unfinished jobs. I have the DVD of it as was planning on doing it. You want to do it together? {{User:Dacheatbot/sig}} 21:57, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

:Actually, I've been planning on getting around to it, but I'm still gonna be pretty busy for the next few days. What I was planning, was instead of trying to transcribe the whole thing, summarize it in the same fashion as the Flashforward page. Not only is that easier to write, as you can listen to a minute of it and then summarize without going over it repeatedly, but I find it's also an easier read than a terribly long mega-page. If you want to try and get some done in that way, go ahead. I'll also try and get it done sometime later, and I'm sure various users would go over what you write and fix any spelling or grammatical errors. That's what they did for me. :) {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 22:54, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
::Good Idea. Can I do it with you? {{User:Dacheatbot/sig}} 23:01, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
:::Sure. You can start working on it, if I have time I'll try to get some done too. And of course I and other users will probably try to help out a bit too, once you get the ball rolling. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 05:19, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

== Personal Image ==

If it wouldn't be too much of a hassle for you, you could update the small homsar image with C Sours' image of homsar in motion, since this is the image in my sig right now. If it's too much trouble for you, you can just delete it. Thanks.--{{User:Homsarroks/sig}} 00:06, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

:It'll be done by tomorrow. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 20:16, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

== Excess images. ==

Nice work, man. You and Phlip. I'm sure you guys are having the time fo your life. I'm in school, so I can't help you there, but keep on tranglin'! {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 06:43, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

:All told, we managed to [[:Template:notorphan|tag]] around 25 images as ''[[:Category:Non-standard linked images|Non-standard linked images]]'', and clear out around 180 long abandoned, duplicate, incorrectly formatted, or otherwise unusable images. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 20:22, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

== Guitar ==

Hey, just so you know (though I'm sure you already do), I uploaded the guitar image for you folks again. Have some good times with it! - [[User:Jweb Guru|Jweb Guru]] 15:17, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
