That Guy Over There: /* Aren't these supposed to be "Fun" Facts? */

== Encyclopedia Brown and The Case of the Missing Casserole ==

The casserole is gone in the easter egg where the lights come on. - [[user:wecannotbesaved|Owen]]
:Maybe Strong Bad and The Cheat ate it already! :D --{{User:NevaDie/sig}} 14:08, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
::It's possible! Or maybe it's a goof? - [[user:wecannotbesaved|Owen]]

== Ping pong ball ==
I don't think the late ping pong ball is a goof.

:Me neither, and even if it was a goof, it would need to be reworded. It sounds pretty unprofessional.--{{User:NevaDie/sig}} 13:21, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
::Agreed. If it's even remarkable, it's certainly not a goof. {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 13:36, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

== Strong Sad's Revenge ==
I added this email to the [[Strong Bad and Strong Sad's Relationship#Strong Sad's Revenge|Strong Sad's Revenge]] page. Do we usually put a remark in Inside References linking to Strong Sad's Revenge?--{{User:NevaDie/sig}} 13:45, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
:No. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 14:21, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

== There's no "eye" in Bubs. ==

Okay, so what is it with Bubs' smaller eye? Strong Bad and The Cheat's pupils are claimed to be copies of it on the main paige, Strong Sad's bulgy eye in "caffeine" was declared so, and I could swear I've read more instances where something has been compared to it. I really don't get it! I mean, guys, Bubs' eye is simply a black pupil with white spots (call them light reflections or shiny spots or whatever)in them. It's an average cartoon pupil, an average animal eyestyle and there's absolutely nothing special about it. Not every shiny pupil on this earth (or any cartoon universe) is related to it in whatsoever. I mean, one might as well say that every black circle in the Disney universe is a resemblence to Mickey Mouse's ear. --[[User:Cass from Germany|Cass from Germany]] 15:06, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
: This is a Flash cartoon; everything you see is a Flah object. Their pupils are the same object as Bubs's eye. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:18, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
::Maybe the fun facts should be reworded slightly to make it explicit that the same Flash object is used in these cases, and not just that they are visually the same. I certainly never realized that's what was meant by those remarks. {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 16:48, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

==Thing==
Is it me, or is Strong Bad closing his eyes at similar points Homestar would? (E.G: Homestar would normally close his eyes at "ping pong ball" Strong Bad did) (I'm not reffering to the blinking.) [[User:Strong Intelligent|SI.com!]]
:They're just making his eyes more expressive than usual, since using his mouth shape and body language to convey emotion are out of the question. [[User:Octan|Octan]] 22:29, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

== Three Armed Strong Sad ==

I don't know if this is worth mentioning as a goof because it could be on purpose, but for one frame while Strong Sad is listening to SB yelling up from the hole, he has three arms before scratching his eye... thoughts [[User:Javaguy78|Javaguy78]] 21:48, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
*I have a screenshot, but don't know how to upload it.
[[Image:3armedss.png|thumb]]
:He's right. Here's a screenshot. It should definitely be added to the page. {{User:Peter222/sig}} 21:55, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
::First a three-legged Homestar, now a three-legged Strong Sad. What, will we be getting a three-headed Bubs next week? Anyway, yes, add it. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 22:06, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
::: Added! [[User:Javaguy78|Javaguy78]] 22:06, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
::::I don't think this is a goof, looks very intentional to me. If you watch it in context, the positioning of both arms makes sense with the physical motion that he is doing (sort of a "wind up" to scratching his eye). His arm moves very quickly which is why it is animated that way. It's not an uncommon animation technique. Remember, the toons are not intended to be watched in freeze-frame — watched normally the animation works well. This may still be notable, but not as a goof. {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 23:32, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
:::::I quite disagree. Even though you can only see it for a split second, you can tell that Strong Sad has three arms in that frame if you're looking closely enough. Even if it was done on purpose (which I doubt), it just doesn't look right <s>and I think it should be noted. I mean, if anybody else wants to cast a "nay" vote, then I guess it'll have to go, but as of right now, it looks to me likes it's three to one. I'll put it back up for now, but of course I'm open to more discussion.</s> Woah, hang on a sec there. I thought you deleted it. Never mind. I still maintain that it's a goof, though. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 03:18, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
::::::Another example of this sort of animation is in [[bike thief]], when Strong Bad throws his clipboard into the air. If you watch it frame by frame, there are 2 clipboards in each frame, but it's just a way that fast motion can be animated at the framerate they use. {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 03:29, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
:::::::I've gotta disagree with you on this one. One arm moves in exactly the wrong direction to show that it's fast motion, and it looks out-of-place within the one frame it's there even granted the second right arm. And it doesn't even work - Strong Sad ISN'T moving his arm THAT fast. Nope, this is a Goof. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 09:18, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
:::::::PS. Oh, and just to make matters better? Frame 1989. He now has ZERO right arms. There's no reasonable explanation for that. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 09:19, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
::::::::Also his arm disappears for a frame or two after he is done scratching. Not sure if anyone caught that. - [[user:wecannotbesaved|Owen]]
:::::::::I would say from looking at the post directly before yours it's pretty likely that Jay already noticed it. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 15:25, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

== edgetangle.com ==

Is edgetangle.com a reference to something? Seems like it must be, but I dunno.. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 23:25, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

:Well, [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 8|Breadtangle]]. And then there's [[pop-up|flesh-tangle]]/[[record_book#Commentary_Transcript|fleshtangle]]. That's all a quick search brought up, and I even looked in the [[Portmanteaus|likely places]]. If it's a reference to anything external, I'm not familiar with it. They just seem to have a fondness for tanglin. And [[lunch special|tranglin]]. -- [[User:Laser-Grilled Crab & Cheese Sandwich|LGC&CS]] 01:22, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

:::[http://whois.domaintools.com/edgetangle.com It has since been registered]. {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 04:54, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

== Hrmm... ==
This isn't very notable, and I'm certain I'm not the first to question this, but Strong Bad with pupils? And, he squints his eyes far more often than ever in the hole. Are the pupils just some kind of joke I'm missing, or are we just gonna assume that Strong Bad's eyes change color in the dark? --[[User:Askingforachallenge|AFAC]] 01:18, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Since The Cheat has pupils too I'm assuming it's to make them expressive. And someone farther up the page suggested the squinting was to make up for a lack of other visible body parts that generaly are used for expression.--[[User:Shaggy|Shaggy]] | [[User talk:Shaggy|talk]] 03:53, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

== Eggs and Toilet Paper ==

I really don't think we need to note that the eggs and the toilet paper are the same as ones previously used in Three Times Halloween Funjob. I mean, seriously, they may be the same Flash objects used, but that doesn't mean they need to be cited for it. Should we make a note every time the use the same Flash object for the Lappy too? It's just eggs and toilet paper. Why in the world should they make more Flash objects for eggs and toilet paper rather than just reusing ones from previous cartoons? I know the whole egg thing is an inside joke, but we've already got eggs referenced. I don't think the article needs to say they're the same eggs as Funjob. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 01:59, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
: I added it not so much because the objects themselves are recurring, but because it's implied that egging and TP-ing people's houses (or what-have-you) is one of the "shenanigans" SB and TC were planning, which they had also done in 3xHF. But feel free to open-debate on this. [[User:Octan|Octan]] 20:42, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

== Fourth Wall Break? ==

Wouldn't Strong Bad saying, "I suddenly feel so...easy to animate." be an instance of a fourth wall break? [[User:TheCheat486|TheCheat486]] 05:07, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
:I concur. [[User:Strong Intelligent|SI.com!]]
::I also [http://hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Fourth_Wall_Breaks&diff=577537&oldid=572381 counted it] as one. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 20:56, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
:::I added is to the "Remarks" section of the article.[[User:TheCheat486|TheCheat486]] 05:10, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

== Umm... Hello? ==

Am I the only person that noticed this is the first time Strong Bad has closed his eye all the way?
:There was also [[Jibblies 2]]. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 19:32, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
::Why is it that every time he closes his eyes, people think that it's the first time? {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 19:35, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
:::I'm sure he did it before J2, also. He has appeared in over 300 toons. {{User:Hrjcm/sig}} 21:03, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

No, in Jibblies 2 you can see his eyes are barely opened. As far as I know this was the first time.

== New Shrubs? ==

Do the bushes in the background of The Field look different, like they were re-designed, or am I just goin' crazy?
--[[Special:Contributions/68.78.44.178|68.78.44.178]] 22:29, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
:Since when? They do make new ones every now and then, but I don't know when the last time they were updated was. Compared to the previous email [[hiding]] they are identical though. [[Special:Contributions/98.212.197.124|98.212.197.124]] 22:50, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
::They were last updated in [[pizza joint]]. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 22:58, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
:::Thanks. I've been re-watching a bunch of the older toons, so I might have an older design in my head.

== Here Come The Goofs ==

[http://rapidshare.com/files/131875483/sbemail197.swf.html This] is the Flash file with all the goofs before they were fixed. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 15:39, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

== A wicked contact buzz from those roach foggers--I mean,.... from that gasoline? ==

This may be pure speculation, but with the gasoline in the "Three Hours later" easter egg, did Strong Bad and The Cheat either:

*get drunk from it?

or

*get a cop-off from the fumes?

: Why? They've clearly been known to play the Grandma game perfectly sober. [[User:Shelikescloth|Shelikescloth]] 05:39, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
: That, or they're just playing it the way they usually play it. ~Strong Kirby, who kinda needs to get an account D:
::That's called speculation. And yes, you do need to get an account. It's really easy. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 20:07, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

== Faint light ==

If you look in the article, it says, "''{Faint light appears from above}''" right before Strong Sad notices the big hole. But I don't even notice the change - the faint light above is already there BEFORE Strong Bad says, "Whoa, where are we?". That's why I'm thinking of taking that little part (''{Faint light appears from above}'') outta there.--[[User:Charlie Jr.|Charlie Jr.]] 18:29, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

: You're right, but I could have sworn that the faint light used not to be there until Strong Sad called from above. Did they change this after the fact? (The faint light effect basically disappears if the screen of my laptop is titled too far back, so my perceptions may have been unreliable.)--[[User:Shelikescloth|Shelikescloth]] 05:37, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

== Strong Sad lying ==

Isnt Strong Sad not checking the internet for edgeyness an instance of a [[Blatant Lies|blatant lie]]? [[Special:Contributions/82.168.116.166|82.168.116.166]] 19:18, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

== Goof that can only be seen NOT in the flash file?! ==

[[Image:Sbemail197wierdglitch.png]]

Does anyone have any idea why this would only appear in the webpage (left) and not in the swf (right)? {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 10:35, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
:I would suspect it's a Flash issue. To me, it looks more like a problem where pixels are being dithered due to scaling of the video. Try seeing if you can change the size of the SWF file and reproduce the issue. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 14:49, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
:: This is definitely a scaling issue. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:09, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
:::I would say so too. I've noticed it doesn't show when zooming in, either. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 19:01, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
::::So now the question becomes, do we leave the mention of it in the glitches section or not? On one hand, it's a Flash issue, on the other, it's clearly visible in the main method of viewing. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 21:00, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
:::::I'd say don't leave it in. It is not a goof by TBC but rather by flash. - [[user:wecannotbesaved|Owen]]
::::::Looks like there is several differences between those two pictures, but the one subject that covers all of them is pixellation. Yes, it's a flash/resizing issue. That's part of the reason I like Phlip's script, <s>'cause I never see any pixellation with it running.</s> Sorry, I'm wrong, but if you zoom in slightly, it DOES go away. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 08:17, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
It is clearly visible when watching the sbemail at the intended resolution. This means it needs to be included in the article. The question that remains is whether it is a glitch or a goof. If I remember correctly, we usually call this a goof. It may be a glitch, though.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 08:33, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
:Well, in my opinion, a glitch is a bug or a problem in Flash, and a Goof would be something that TBC did accidentally themselves. So, personally, I'd call it a glitch. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 09:12, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
[[Image:LappyFlaw.png|thumb|Back when the Lappy was male.]]
::It's a flaw in the Flash shape that has been around since the birth of the Lappy. Only visible at certain scales and/or zoom levels. As it happens, TBC chose to scale the shape in this sbemail in just such a way that the flaw is visible at 100%. Also, when Strong Bad's husky head isn't in the way, the flaw can be seen on the other side of the monitor, too (still only visible at certain scales/zoom levels). {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 21:59, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

== tapity tapity tap ==

The Remarks state that you can hear the sound of typing in the background as Strong Sad is pretending to type. I don't hear it. Can someone else confirm/refute this comment and deal with it accordingly? {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 05:52, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

:I noticed it the first time I watched the email. --{{User:Salty/sig}} 05:54, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
::Thanks. I hear it now. It's just real quiet. {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 22:29, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

== Explanations etc. ==

*Et cetera (abbreviated etc) is a Latin phrase meaning "and other things," so Strong Bad saying "yours, his, hers, mine, ours" is using the meaning of 'et cetera' to list various possessive pronouns.
This fact was removed for explaining the joke. I personally think it belongs there, as I didn't get what strong bad was doing until i read the literal definition of etc. What does everyone else think? {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:20, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
:You can get the joke even without the literal meaning. Also, the meaning of "etc" in the English language is "and so on". [[Wikipedia:Et cetera|check-it-out.exe]]. It's unlikely that Strong Bad used the Greek literal meaning that the Latin phrase is based on that we use in English. And I am out.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 00:40, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
::Strong Bad isn't intending any meaning other than the standard English ''[[AHD:61/50/E0225000.html|etc.]]'', which is so common in everyday language as to not need defining here. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 01:11, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

== novelle-ique ==

I didn't see 'kpdeia links or explanations for this word. Is this a made up word or a type of novel? If it a type of novel, it deserves a place in remarks. {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 03:38, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
:I think it might be a portmanteau. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 13:55, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
::I think SS doesn't know what he's talking about. He MIGHT mean Novelette. Novelique IS a real French word, but it refers to the novelty-ness of an item instead of a novel. {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 15:53, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

== Feathering ==

Strong Sad is saying something while being feathered but I can't tell what and unless I'm blind it's not in the transcript. Can anyone else make it out? {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 04:50, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
:When doing the subtitles, I thought it sounded like Oh. Ah. Ooh. E. Stop. Please. No. No. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 04:53, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

== A questionable goof ==

I was watching this with philip's GreaseMonkey script again and I just noticed something strange while viewing with show outside-the-frame action on. When it zooms in to SB saying "We can't go wrong" (frames 1231-1250) right before he tells The Cheat to saw a hole in the floor, his arms are not there. We should be able to see a little bit of his arms, gloves, and the nose of The Cheat, but the blurry background is apparently in front of those pieces. I can understand why the exclusion of The Cheat's nose, but this also covered SB's gloves and arms. Is this worthy of a mention or is should we remain silent on this leaving people none-the-wiser (although I just spilled the beans already :) ). {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 15:44, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
:You weren't quite specific enough. Is this "goof" only outside the border? Cause if so, it's not a goof. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 15:46, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
::Sorry. Inside the border we SHOULD see SB's arms and gloves, but we don't because they're covered by the blurry background. You wouldn't notice this at all unless you were looking behind the border, however. {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 15:55, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
:::Ah, I see what you mean. The arm is in the frame, it's even animated, but the background covers it, and the only way to tell is seeing it from outside the frame... interesting... I would have no problem seeing this documented on the page, even though it's not a traditional goof. Maybe under remarks? {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 16:01, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
::::That will work. This is what I came up with to say:
::::*During Strong Bad's close-up in his living room, his right hand is animated in the flash, but is obscured by the layer that the blurry background occupies. This can only be observed by viewing below the flash's border.
::::Probably needs to be reworded, though. Sounds a little clunky to me. {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 16:11, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

== Clapping Sound ==

When Strong Bad and The Cheat clap their hands, the sound is the same as the hands from Clapping Party from the email "slumber party".

== Stromestar Rad ==

Does anyone else think that Strong Bad sounds like Homestar when he says he keeps ping pong balls in his pants? Also, the eyes look the same... If not, who thinks Strong Bad sounds younger when he says this? {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 06:59, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

== Aren't these supposed to be "Fun" Facts? ==

*Strong Bad commits a common grammatical error by saying, "Like the other day. Me and The Cheat—" The phrase should be "The Cheat and I." Interestingly, he gets it right later in the email.

Am I crazy for thinking that common grammatical errors do not warrant a remark? {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 07:01, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
:I'm a grammar nutter, so you may want to take what I say with a grain of salt. Anyway, I think cases where Strong Bad himself makes grammatical errors are especially noteworthy because he's such a stickler about others' grammar. So I'm in favour of retaining this. Incidentally, the word "fun" in "Fun Facts" is really just for alliteration; it would probably be more accurate to call them "Notable Facts". In case that was a point of contention here. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 07:04, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
::I don't literally mean that I think they should be "fun." What I'm contending is that a grammatical error this minor doesn't warrant a Remark. However, seeing as how we're the only two debating it, I suppose it doesn't warrant deletion at this point. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 08:17, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

*:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{while Coach is counting his lines}'' Hey, Strong Bad, let's try it again.
*:'''EVERYONE BUT COACH Z:''' ''{groans}'' Oooh.
*:'''COACH Z:''' Aw, if I had a nickel for every time I've been groaned off stage.

== Fun Facts ==
=== Explanations ===
[[File:Which Ween Costumes loading screen.png|thumb|Loading screen]]
*No [[Halloween]] toon was released in 2010. To compensate, the characters are dressed up for [[Decemberween]] instead, and Strong Bad says they "have their 'weens' crossed" (the loading screen even features a jack-o-lantern wearing a [[Santaman]] hat).

=== Remarks ===
*This toon has no back button.
*This is the first toon featuring costumes since [[Homestarloween Party]] to not include [[Homsar]].
*This, like [[A Decemberween Mackerel]], has a higher [[Sound Quality|quality sound]] than most previous toons.
** The toon's "screen" is also twice as large as usual, again like the [[A Decemberween Mackerel|previous toon.]]
*Bubs's machine [[gun]] doesn't have a trigger.
*The King of Town suggests in his Easter egg that he is around 303 years old. However, in [[space program]], released five years earlier, he claimed to be in his sixties.
*The scene inside Pom Pom's snowglobe costume is slightly different from the real scene:
**The Cheat is in between Strong Bad and Marzipan instead of Strong Bad and Coach Z.
**Everyone else is in the same order, but they're spread out horizontally and are not as deep vertically.
**The stiletto heel Strong Bad is standing in is reversed.
**The miniature Pom Pom is empty instead of containing yet another scene of characters.
*The miniature Homestar inside Pom-pom's costume blinks its eyes.

=== Fixed Goofs ===
*When this toon was originally released, the King of Town's costume was misspelled "Heat Meiser" instead of the correct "Heat Miser". The error was corrected later that day.
*The label over The Cheat originally omitted the word "as".
*When clicking on the Strong Mad Easter egg, Bubs's teeth would lower and The Cheat's right arm would raise slightly. After Homestar finished talking, both characters returned to their default.

=== Inside References ===
*The Cheat pulls out the [[Telltale Games|Telltale]] [[Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People]] PC DVD with the [[Videlectrix]] alternate cover.
*Pom Pom's costume seems to indicate that he's hollow, which is reminiscent of Strong Bad's 108th email, [[pom pom]].
*[[Homestar Runner|Homestar]] mentions his [[Style|style]].

=== Real-World References ===
*''[[Wikipedia:Die Hard|Die Hard]]'' is a movie starring [[Wikipedia:Bruce Willis|Bruce Willis]].
*[[Wikipedia:Rankin/Bass|Rankin/Bass]] is the production company that produced the stop-motion ''[[Wikipedia:Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (TV special)|Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer]]'' Christmas special. They are also known for their erratic style of animation, which Strong Mad emulates.
*''[[Wikipedia:St. Elsewhere|St. Elsewhere]]'' was a TV show in the mid 1980s. In the series finale, it was revealed that the entire show was possibly the daydream of an autistic child staring at a snowglobe.
**[[Wikipedia:Ed Begley, Jr.|Ed Begley, Jr.]] was one of the actors on the show.
*The King of Town mentions the Bumpuses' dogs, which featured in the plot of ''[[Wikipedia:A Christmas Story|A Christmas Story]]''.
** Strong Bad also says Strong Sad looks like a "deranged Easter bunny" and a "pink nightmare" in his costume, which is how Ralphie's dad describes him in the movie.
** Strong Bad's costume, the leg lamp, is also from the same movie.
*Homestar confuses Strong Sad's costume for a [[Wikipedia:Donnie Darko|Donnie Darko]] costume.
*Homestar mistakes the King of Town for being a "Devil [[Wikipedia:Don King (boxing promoter)|Don King]]". (He previously mistook the King for Don King in [[Jibblies 2]].)
*Homestar comments on his own costume to the tune of "Do You Realize??" by [[Wikipedia:The Flaming Lips|The Flaming Lips]], whose lead singer wrote and directed the film from which Homestar's costume originates.
*The Heat Miser first appeared in [[Wikipedia:The Year Without a Santa Claus|The Year Without a Santa Claus]], another Rankin/Bass production. The King of Town also quotes the character's [[YouTube:wbfgVEk-mxQ|song]] from the movie when describing his costume.

That Guy Over There: Teen Girl Squad Issue 10

{{tbd}}
[[File:Twicestyle.png|thumb|Twicestyle]]
Occasionally, the word '''twice''' will be used in some pretty odd contexts, often as an interjection, rather than meaning "happening two times".

== Appearances ==
*Email [[interview]] — [[Strong Bad]] says "AaAaA! Rightio! I think I can twice!" when imitating [[Homsar]].
*Email [[privileges]] — Strong Bad's intro to his [[Strong Bad Email|email]] mentions "Once [[times]]! Twice times" for no particular reason.
*Email [[labor day]] — Strong Bad announces in an [[Easter Egg]] that [[Schenectady Crispies]] are so freaking good, they taste twice.
*[[Teen Girl Squad Issue 10]] — Strong Bad says "twice" while making out with his drawing of [[The Ugly One]].
*Email [[theme song]] — The narrator asks if you make butt at your job, and if you want to make twice butt.
*Email [[disconnected]] — [[Bubs]] tells [[Strong Body]] that his moves are "twicely fresh. Twicely fresh.", parodying the works of [[Sesame Street|Vincent Twice]] and his need to say his name twice.
*Email [[your funeral]] — A [[Twicestyle|boombox]] that Strong Bad uses to speak at his own funeral is named "twice[[style]]".
*Email [[licensed]] — [[Coach Z]] shows Strong Bad a Strong Bad Piñata, and tells him that he is twice.
*Email [[redesign]] — Strong Bad says that email is both nice and twice.
*[[Baddest of the Bands]] — Homestar says "thank you, thank you twice" as part of his rehearsal.
*Email [[videography]] — [[Homestar Runner]] chants "Oh! Twice!" while pretending to be a gift-giver.

As do most people on this wiki, I enjoy watching Homestar Runner cartoons. Wanna know how long I've been watching them? Well, that's a stupid question, Abdi. Check out my userbox!

As you've probably noticed if you've seen my contributions to discussion pages and STUFF, I can be a pretty argumentative person... but, naturally, only when I'm right. Some of my favorite things to do on this wiki are add fun facts, correct spelling and grammar, and, of course, participate in intelligent discussion on talk pages. I've also reverted vandalism on a couple of occasions, which makes me feel accomplished, but I'm happy to say I don't usually spot any.

I think my work speaks for itself (which is not always a good thing), so why don't you head on over to my [[Special:Contributions/That Guy Over There|contributions page]] and check it out?

In closing, I'd just like to clarify that I do not [[vacation#Postcard_5|''eat'' antiques]].

== Other H.R. Hurricanesnstuf ==
I speak with my friends almost exclusively in Homestar Runner references. This sometimes confuses people, which I find very amusing.

Once while in Florida in the Orange County Convention Center, a complete stranger, having no prior knowledge of my interest in Homestar Runner, walked up to me and quoted the intro to Teen Girl Squad. I also found this very amusing.

I have all kinds of jokes in my Spanish class. One of them last year was that I would always try to work the question "¿Dónde está un huevo?" into any and every oral assignment. For you non-Spanish speakers, that translates into "[[Where's an Egg?|Where is an egg?]]"

I like to write Homestar Runner quotes on the chalkboard in my sophomore history teacher's classroom. Only a select few cool people appreciate them. I'm... I'm one of the cool people. Really.

For my final project in physics last school year, I was assigned to build a roller coaster with a group. It was a virtual model and it was called, you guessed it, The Bowels of Trogdor. I even played the Trogdor theme song in the PowerPoint.

== I'll tell you what I think! ==

[[tape-leg|Tape-leg]] is actually kinda funny. [[the basics|The basics]] is indisputably the worst email ever, followed closely by [[winter pool]].

Everything Homsar says is hilarious.

Nothing Marzipan says is hilarious, with the singular exception of the quote listed above.

Strong Sad is almost never hilarious unless he's [[caffeine|loaded on caffeine]], being [[The Baloneyman|struck by a baloney sammich truck]], or [[A Folky Tale|telling the folky tale of Saddy Dumpington]].

The Lappy is way overdue for some sorta catastrophe. Seriously, folks. Strong Bad has checked over eighty emails on that thing.

Homestar's mention of [[unnatural|chocolate cake]] on that picnic table over there is an obvious reference to Homsar in [[strong badathlon]]. I don't care what the [[HRWiki:STUFF/Archive/unnatural|STUFF results]] tell you; that's the dang truth!

I would pay big money to see a Homestar Runner movie. I'd probably pay Dish Network for an extra channel if it had a Homestar Runner TV show on it, too.

==Transcript==
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Coach Z is not that cool; here comes an email.

<blockquote class="lappy email">
<div>subject: movie</div>
Dear Strong Bad, 
 I was at the movies last night and this little girl behind me 
wouldn't shut up! has that ever happened to you? 
Cooper 
Franklin TN.
</blockquote>
''{Strong Bad reads the name and address as "A person called Cooper, from the city of Franklin, in the state of Tennessee."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Told you I could do it.

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Oh, I feel ya, Coopreme. It's a good thing they make you turn off your bazookas before movies man, or every one of my theater-going experiences would end in smoldering crater fashion.

''{Cut to a cinema entrance lobby. Posters for Dangeresque 3 and King Bubsgonzola Supreme hang in the background. Senor Cardgage is an usher; Strong Bad, The Cheat, and Pom Pom walk in.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The experience starts out promising enough...

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' Good eef-ening, Bontilda. ''{takes Strong Bad's ticket and tears it}'' Forty-twone will be on your lest.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Just you watch, The Cheat. Some day ''I'm'' gonna be the one tearing tickets and telling folks that forty-twone will be on their lest.

''{Cut inside the cinema. Coach Z is watching the movie screen, fidgeting and thinking hard.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' It begins with the genius who can't resist answering the oh-so-challenging film trivia slides they show before the movie.

'''COACH Z:''' Oh, I know this one! The Brat Pack! Pan-and-scan! Spencer Tracy!

''{Cut to Strong Bad. The Cheat is visible on the right.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Real impressive, Ebert. We've only seen this slide ten times since we all sat down.

'''ANNOUNCER:''' ''{voiceover}'' If you answered "B", you're ready for film school.

''{Cut back to Coach Z}''

'''COACH Z:''' Awr, it was ''{hits himself}'' ice cold refreshment.

''{Cut to the screen, which reads:}''

<blockquote>
<big>MOVIE & REFRESHMENT TRIVIA*</big>
The correct answer was : 
B: Ice Cold Refreshment
*ACTUALLY JUST REFRESHMENT TRIVIA
</blockquote>

'''COACH Z: ''' I should've known.

''{Another slide is shown on the screen, with a picture of a bazooka with six tally marks on it, labeled "Please Be Considerate. Because no one wants to watch a smoldering crater."}''

'''ANNOUNCER:''' Be considerate of others. Please turn off your bazookas before the progrum.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then, once the movie starts, don't forget the guy who insists on rattling off the complete filmographies of each of the actors.

''{Cut back to the audience, and pan from Pom Pom to Strong Sad.}''

'''MOVIE:''' ''{voiceover}'' —but when I returned, the DNA evidence was gone!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ooh, ''{points at screen}'' and he had a cameo as Stevedore #2 in the prequel, and he was in that car commercial with the wisecracking transmission, and he has a Bacon number of 4! ''{holds up four fingers}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{gets up and turns back to face Strong Sad}'' And this is my FIST! ''{raises said fist}'' You might remember it from ''Bloodied Pulp'', the amazingly true story of your face in five seconds! ''{sits back down}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{pointing at Strong Bad}'' He was in ''Dangeresque 1'' and ''2''!

''{Cut to The Cheat, who is sitting next to Strong Bad and eating popcorn.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And if you think the guy sitting next to you munching popcorn is bad, ''{Strong Bad's head turns slowly in The Cheat's direction}'' try going to a theater where people regularly sneak in their own all-you-can-eat fajitas!

''{Cut to the King of Town, who is holding a frying pan covered in sizzling food, with a stack of similar pans in the seat beside him.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{Looks at the camera, popping his crown}'' What?! This was all in my box of Milk Duds.

''{Pan back, behind the King of Town, there are the Knight (with a guitar), the Hornblower (with a horn) and the Blacksmith (with maracas). The three of them play a brief Mariachi melody. Cut back to Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And that brings me to the little girl behind me who wouldn't shut up.

''{Pan behind Strong Bad, Homestar Runner is standing there, wearing a viking helmet.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing}'' Ever and more! Ever and more! Ever and more!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' This is the kind of person that likes to talk to the movie. But not in the usual ''{Homestar mouths Strong Bad's words}'' "Don't go in there!" or ''{Homestar mouths Strong Bad's words again}'' "Oh no he di'n't!" type of way. He just... makes small talk with the characters, and chit-chat.

''{Cut through white to some time in the movie. Homestar is sitting on his seat, with the viking helmet on the seat next to him.}''

'''MOVIE:''' ''{voiceover}'' Well, I figured out their plan.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, I figured I'd just cut up some iceberg lettuce, throw some tomatoes on there, maybe a little catalina. Nothing fancy, nothing fancy.

''{Cut through white to later in the movie. Homestar is lying on his seat, with his head resting on the helmet.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, man, have you ever been to a ground-breaking? I mean, what is the point of those things?

''{Cut through white again, Homestar is lying upside down on his seat, with his legs in the air.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You know where the real money is? ''{shakes his legs}'' Phone books.

''{Cut through white yet again, Homestar is sitting up normally.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I wonder how you spell tabasco. ''{stands up}'' TABASCOooo!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Gets up from his seat again and turns around.}'' What is wrong with you people?! Do you not notice the giant movie over here? Were all the local sit-around-and-suck-out-loud places closed?!

''{Strong Bad picks up a bazooka, holds it beside his head like a cell phone, and imitates a ringtone.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, di-a-lo-do, da-a-lo-do, di-a-lo-do, ''die''!!

''{Strong Bad lowers the bazooka to point at the camera and fires it. Fade back to the computer room.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' So, that's why I'm not allowed at the movies anymore. But I don't care. I brought my movie viewing into the digital age. And I dig-it-all!!! Check it out!

''{Strong Bad runs "karatecar.exe". An ASCII art movie starts. A stick figure man walks along a street, with buildings in the background, and a car drives across. The stick figure jumps and does a somersault over the car just before he gets hit.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{quietly}'' Oh, look out, Mister Slashy-Man!

''{The movie cuts to a closeup of the car.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{quietly}'' Ooh, something exciting!

''{The movie cuts to a closeup of the stick figure man, who says "Now THAT was a ''sports'' car!". He then does some karate moves and says "Hi-YA!".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{quietly}'' Aah, I guess I'm talking during the movie! Kind of a hypocrite! Gonna shut up now!

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

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*[[Wikipedia:Pan and Scan|Pan and Scan]] refers to a technique by which film originally shot in widescreen format is transferred into a format compatible with the shape of common TV screens. In contrast, DVDs made using an [[Wikipedia:Anamorphic widescreen|anamorphic widescreen]] technique automatically fill [[Wikipedia:High-definition television|high-definition television]] screens that have a 16:9 aspect ratio and make full use of the available resolution.
*[[Wikipedia:French dressing|Catalina]] is a type of salad dressing made from tomato ketchup and sugar.
*[[ASCII art]] is an artistic medium that makes pictures entirely out of typed characters.
*A [[Wikipedia:Groundbreaking|groundbreaking]] is a photo-op ceremony in which executives or other noteworthy people dig the first shovel of dirt from a lot in which a new construction will be built.
*The slashes on the bazooka in the "Be Considerate" ad are a common mark on guns, tanks, and war ships to show how many kills they've made.
*A [[Wikipedia:Stevedore|stevedore]] is a person who works at or is responsible for loading and unloading ships in port.
*[[The Knight]], [[The Hornblower]], and [[The Blacksmith]] are playing instruments as if they were in a [[Wikipedia:Mariachi|mariachi band]].
*"[[Wikipedia:Bacon number|Bacon number]]" refers to the number of degrees of separation an actor has from actor [[Wikipedia:Kevin Bacon|Kevin Bacon]]. This, in turn, stems from the [[Wikipedia:Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon|Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon]] game that was popular in the early 1990s.

===Trivia===
*The release date on the Dangeresque 3 poster is:<blockquote>COMING <del>JUNE 2004</del> <del>APRIL 2005</del> <del>MEMORIALS DAY 2005</del> <del>AUGUST 2006</del> WE'LL SEE...</blockquote>
*[[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]]'s [[Cool Shades]] in the poster have three lenses, relating to it being the third film. The number "3" is also visible, reflected in the center lens.
*The summary for the [[Podstar Runner]] RSS feed reads, "Strong Bad rants about why he hates fellow moviegoers."

===Remarks===
*Despite the lack of a specific release date and that it just says "We'll see", the frame around the poster for Dangeresque 3 still labels the film as "Now Playing".
*Note that the ASCII art is actually not real ASCII art as some of the characters are of different font sizes.
**This includes italicized fonts, including backward-italicized 1's and I's.


===Inside References===
*This is the third email in a row that mentions [[DNA evidence (running gag)|DNA evidence]].
*This email features another pronunciation of the word "program" as [[progrum]].
*Two of the movie posters are for ''[[King Bubsgonzola Supreme]]'' (based on [[unnatural]]) and ''[[dangeresque 3|Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]]'' (with no predetermined release date).
**The King Bubsgonzola Supreme poster was an Easter Egg in [[unnatural]].
*Strong Bad originally said in [[stunt double]] that Dangeresque 3 would come out in June 2004, hence the first crossed out date. The other three dates are of major releases: [[Stinkoman 20X6]], [[Senorial Day]], and [[Strongest Man in the World]], respectively.
*"Film school" was first mentioned in [[Puppets on the Road]].
*"Hi-YA!" is an example of [[Lowercase i's]].

*The voice heard during the trivia screens and during the first movie clip is the same voice heard narrating the [[The Strong Badian Administration of Some Aluminum Foil|SBASAF]] filmstrip.

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

'''HOMESTAR:''' Welcome to the King of Town's... DVD... extras bonus!

'''MIKE:''' Nah, this is, uh, Strong Bad Email, Homestar!

'''HOMESTAR:''' Yeah! The King of Town's...

'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' Hey! Hey! Take me to the movies.

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{laughing}'' Yeah!

'''MIKE:''' You ever—you ever say that?

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{laughing}'' Yeah, I do! All the time.

'''MIKE:''' All right.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Ahhh...

'''MIKE:''' ''{underneath}'' Have you—

'''HOMESTAR:''' What?

'''MIKE:''' Have you ever been... to the movies before?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Yeaaah!

'''MIKE:''' You...

'''HOMESTAR:''' Sometimes I go... and I s—I wear... my viking helmet.

'''MIKE:''' Oh, that's right. An—

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{interrupting}'' And I sing my favorite anthem of anthems!

'''MIKE:''' "Ever and More?"

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{playing up his impediment}'' Eva and moow, ev' and moow, evew an' mooooow!

'''MIKE:''' I think you're getting worse with your Rs.

'''HOMESTAR:''' When is Strong Bad gonna make that ''{with a soft 'g' throughout}'' Dangersqueal Three? Dangersqueal Three: ''{Mike laughs}'' The...Squealiest Danger. ''{pause}'' Who's that guy? Who's that skinny Strong Bad?

'''MIKE:''' Uh, that's...Cardgage.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Ohhhh, yeaah.

'''MIKE:''' Cardage. Is Cardage real? Homestar? 

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{confused}'' Is Cardage real?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{Coach Z shouts out trivia answers}'' I don't like the trivia before movies, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' It's usually pretty easy, and Tom Hanks is usually the answer.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Yeah! I don't wanna look at no silhouettes of Tom Hanks' head no more! ''{Mike stifles a laugh}'' ...and guess which curly-headed man this is! ''{Mike laughs aloud}'' That's what it always asks me.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughing}'' That's a... very poor trivia question.

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{laughing}'' I know! "Guess which curly-headed Tom Hanks this is." And I always—it's always ''Bachelor Party''.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs, regains his composure}'' It's not, uh... ahh, I was gonna say ''Johnny Dangerously'', but that's Keaton, right?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Yeaah.

'''MIKE:''' ''Gung Ho''?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Yap. 

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughing} Mr. Mom''?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Him and Tom Hanks are kinda the same.

'''MIKE:''' ''{snickers}'' Until Tom Hanks got all legit and... winning all those Oscars in the '90s.

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''Bantam.''

'''MIKE:''' ''Multiplicity'' never got...

'''HOMESTAR:''' Tom Hanks—

'''MIKE:''' ''{underneath}'' never got...

'''HOMESTAR:''' Tom Hanks was Bantam, though.

'''MIKE:''' Well... no.

'''HOMESTAR:''' And Kiefer was Keaton. ''{Mike snickers}'' Ummm....

'''MIKE:''' So what movie were you guys watching here?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Uh, this... must've been... ''Soo''—''Soos''!

'''MIKE:''' ''Seuss''? Like—

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''Soos-sayer''!

'''MIKE:''' ''Soothsayer''.

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{struggles to get out the 'th'}'' ''Soothsayer''.

'''MIKE:''' Ohhkay.

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{the King of Town appears}'' Oooh! Look at those fajitas! That is a sizzling plate! ''{Mike laughs}'' You better watch out. ''{at the pan to the mariachi band}'' Wooo!

'''MIKE:''' The guys.

'''HOMESTAR:''' It's the Kingsm'n. The Kingsm'n trio! ''{short pause}'' Umm... ''{Strong Bad mentions the "little girl"}'' Here's my big scene!

'''MIKE:''' Ohhh, you're—you were—

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{overlapping}'' We're—we were probably seeing the Vikings on... the Seas! ...movie. And so I was just singin' along.

'''MIKE:''' Eric the Viking?

'''HOMESTAR:''' He tries to pick me as if I was some kind of an annoy-ance. But I'm really—

'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' You were just part of the movie?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Yeah, it's like that movie where you throw... toast.

'''MIKE:''' Ohh, yeah. ''Rocky Horror''? Yeah.

'''HOMESTAR:''' No, ''Rocky IV''.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughing} Rocky IV''?

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''The Rocky IV Picture Show''!

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' When you throw toast at Drago?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Yeah! And you throw syringes at... Nikita Jamson. ''{Mike laughs aloud, Homestar stifles laughter}'' What's her name? She's tall and blonde.

'''MIKE:''' Brigitte Nielsen?

'''HOMESTAR:''' Jaquitte! ''{both laughing}'' Jaquitte Ribston! Throw some syringes!

'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' Y'know, she and... Rocky got married.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Rocky?

'''MIKE:''' Maybe. I can't—I can't remember— ''{quietly}'' —S—y'know, Stallone.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Oh.

'''MIKE:''' I dunno if it was after or before... ''Rocky IV''.

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{overlapping}'' I think he got married—I heard he got married to that robot... that's in... ''Rocky IV''.

'''MIKE:''' The robot?

'''HOMESTAR:''' His son has a cool robot.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughing}'' Oh, he does!

'''HOMESTAR:''' Um, Strong Bad...does Strong Bad really have a bazooka, Mike? I think this is him imagining things, 'cause I feel like if he really had a bazooka, we'd all be in some biiig troubles.

'''MIKE:''' Uhhh... is that—that was a rocket launcher, though. Wasn't it?

'''HOMESTAR:''' What'd I call it?

'''MIKE:''' A bazooka.

'''HOMESTAR:''' What's the diff?

'''MIKE:''' Uh, I don't really know, but—''{Strong Bad is watching karatecar}'' Ooh, look at that movie. That's a good movie.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Yeaaah! I remember one time some guy made that movie ''{entirely unintelligible through his impediment} Stuwws''. All with... little letters.

'''MIKE:''' ''Star Wars''? ...was made...?

'''HOMESTAR:''' ''{overlapping} Stuwws''. ''{Mike chuckles; Mr. Slashy-man takes his final pose} {as a greeting rather than an exclamation}'' Hiya!

=== Fun Facts ===
*Homestar's line about Dangeresque seems to indicate that this commentary was recorded sometime before the release of [[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]]. The DVD was released about a month later.
*Homestar and Mike mention a number of [[Wikipedia:Tom Hanks|Tom Hanks]] and [[Wikipedia:Michael Keaton|Michael Keaton]] films from the late '80s and early '90s, including [[Wikipedia:Bachelor Party (film)|''Bachelor Party'']], starring Tom Hanks, and [[Wikipedia:Johnny Dangerously|''Johnny Dangerously'']], [[Wikipedia:Mr. Mom|''Mr. Mom'']], [[Wikipedia:Gung Ho (film)|''Gung Ho'']], [[Wikipedia:Multiplicity (film)|''Multiplicity'']], and [[Wikipedia:Batman (1989 film)|''Batman'']], all of which starred Michael Keaton.
*Homestar's mention of Tom Hanks playing "Bantam" is probably typical Homestar confusion; Michael Keaton played Batman in the 1989 ''Batman'' and its sequel [[Wikipedia:Batman Returns|''Batman Returns'']], but Tom Hanks never played any character named Bantam.
*Homestar confuses [[Wikipedia:Rocky IV|''Rocky IV'']] with [[Wikipedia:The Rocky Horror Picture Show|''The Rocky Horror Picture Show'']], a movie which is well-known for having audience participation, including throwing toast at the screen during one scene.
*Despite Matt and Homestar's confusion, there is no real distinction between a bazooka and a rocket launcher, as "bazooka" has not been a technical term since World War II and "rocket launcher" has never been a technical term for man-portable weaponry. The truly correct term is "[[Wikipedia:shoulder-launched missile weapon|shoulder-launched missile weapon]]".
*Homestar is correct; the original ''[[Wikipedia:Star Wars|Star Wars]]'' has been entirely made in ASCII. It can be viewed [http://www.asciimation.co.nz/asciimation/index.html here].

== Contributions to HRWiki ==
As do most people on this wiki, I enjoy watching Homestar Runner cartoons. Wanna know how long I've been watching them? Well, that's a stupid question, Abdi. Check out my userbox!

As you've probably noticed if you've seen my contributions to discussion pages and STUFF, I can be a pretty argumentative person... but, naturally, only when I'm right. Some of my favorite things to do on this wiki are add fun facts, correct spelling and grammar, and, of course, participate in intelligent discussion on talk pages. I've also reverted vandalism on a couple of occasions, which makes me feel accomplished, but I'm happy to say I don't usually spot any.

I think my work speaks for itself (which is not always a good thing), so why don't you head on over to my [[Special:Contributions/That Guy Over There|contributions page]] and check it out?

In closing, I'd just like to clarify that I do not [[vacation#Postcard_5|''eat'' antiques]].

== Other H.R. Hurricanesnstuf ==
I speak with my friends almost exclusively in Homestar Runner references. This sometimes confuses people, which I find very amusing.

Once while in Florida in the Orange County Convention Center, a complete stranger, having no prior knowledge of my interest in Homestar Runner, walked up to me and quoted the intro to Teen Girl Squad. I also found this very amusing.

I have all kinds of jokes in my Spanish class. One of them last year was that I would always try to work the question "¿Dónde está un huevo?" into any and every oral assignment. For you non-Spanish speakers, that translates into "[[Where's an Egg?|Where is an egg?]]"

I like to write Homestar Runner quotes on the chalkboard in my sophomore history teacher's classroom. Only a select few cool people appreciate them. I'm... I'm one of the cool people. Really.

For my final project in physics last school year, I was assigned to build a roller coaster with a group. It was a virtual model and it was called, you guessed it, The Bowels of Trogdor. I even played the Trogdor theme song in the PowerPoint.

== I'll tell you what I think! ==

[[tape-leg|Tape-leg]] is actually kinda funny. [[the basics|The basics]] is indisputably the worst email ever, followed closely by [[winter pool]].

Everything Homsar says is hilarious.

Nothing Marzipan says is hilarious, with the singular exception of the quote listed above.

Strong Sad is almost never hilarious unless he's [[caffeine|loaded on caffeine]], being [[The Baloneyman|struck by a baloney sammich truck]], or [[A Folky Tale|telling the folky tale of Saddy Dumpington]].

The Lappy is way overdue for some sorta catastrophe. Seriously, folks. Strong Bad has checked over eighty emails on that thing.

Homestar's mention of [[unnatural|chocolate cake]] on that picnic table over there is an obvious reference to Homsar in [[strong badathlon]]. I don't care what the [[HRWiki:STUFF/Archive/unnatural|STUFF results]] tell you; that's the dang truth!

I would pay big money to see a Homestar Runner movie. I'd probably pay Dish Network for an extra channel if it had a Homestar Runner TV show on it, too.

'''Page Title:''' Lappy 486

==Transcript==
''{Homestar is sitting at his [[hremail]] desk. He has bags under his eyes and is slouching. He slips further and further down over the next line.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{half-mumbling}'' And that, Gordon Tiecollarondemous, is why I decided to ''keep'' calling you Gordon Tiecollarondemous...

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{from off-screen}'' Aaah! ''{A record scratch is heard.}'' I can't takes it no more!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, screaming.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Somebody hand me a rake!

''{A rake is handed to Strong Bad. He grabs it and smacks Homestar with it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Raaaake!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the rake}'' Somebody hand me a shovel!

''{A shovel is handed to him. He smacks Homestar with it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Shovel!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the shovel}'' Somebody hand me a Garden Weasel!

''{A tool with a very spiky end is handed to Strong Bad. Again, he hits Homestar. Homestar comes back up with a "CENSORED" sign over his face; bruises and a stream of blood can be seen around it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{calmly}'' Aw, a Weasel.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{wiping his brow}'' Phew.

''{Pan over to show Marzipan, holding the rake and shovel.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, Marzipan!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Always happy to help!

''{Cut to the Lappy. Strong Bad sits down in front of it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Sorry, Lappy. My triumphant return to checking emails calls for some fresh blood!

''{He closes the Lappy, leaving a faint backwards "Lappy 486" in the wall behind it. He pushes it off to the side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Tech nerds, feast your eyes... on ''Steak Sandwich!''

''{He places said sandwich on the desk in front of him to a trumpet fanfare. Cut to a solo image of the sandwich.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Steaky Steaky 6 Millenium Edition ''{a steak-shaped logo for this appears in the corner}'' is a processing wonder horse, capable of sauteed onions, ''{a logo for "Sauteed Onions Ghz" appears}'' grilled mushrooms, ''{a logo for "Grilled Mushrooms 32x" appears}'' and all right, never mind.

''{The Steak logo swivels as though its left side was no longer supported while the other logos fall off the screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' This is just a steak sandwich, isn't it?

''{Cut to a rear view of the desk, as Strong Bad looks at the sandwich.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know, I guess I'm a little... out-of-practice with this stuff. ''{to the Lappy}'' All right, Lappy, you can stay alive for at least one more week.

''{He pushes the sandwich aside and returns the Lappy to its rightful position. He opens the Lappy and a startup tone is heard. Cut to behind Strong Bad. The Female Lappy is visible.}''

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' Another week with you, Strong Bad, is like 8 dog-weeks in cat-years.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, are you sure you're not Senor Cardgage's computer?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' ''{from offscreen}'' No...

''{Cut back to show Senor Cardgage standing near Strong Bad, holding the sandwich.}''

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' This steak samwich is Beverly ''clearly'' my compooter, Bathsheba.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{smiling}'' Hey, Cardgage! D'you wanna help me come out of e-tirement?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' Ummmmm... no.

''{Strong Bad lowers his head in disappointment. Senor Cardgage turns around and starts walking in place while his hair gets slightly blown, and sounds of traffic are heard. Strong Bad looks up in confusion, and starts to nervously lean back.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm quite scared right now.

''{Cut to the Lappy as Strong Bad turns back to it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's start over. ''{types "strongbad_email.exe"}'' Oh, man, I haven't checked my email in so long, I bet there's gonna be a half-zillion messages waiting for me!

''{He presses Return. The following comes up with a ding: "Oh, smokes! You have 2 new messages!", which are "Coolness" from "Kelly" and "Thanks for loaning me your rake" from "Homestar".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Well, a half-''four'' messages waiting for me isn't bad. ''{He brings up "Coolness".}''

<blockquote class="email"><div>subject: coolness</div>
Dear Strong Bad, 
What was the coolest explosion you ever saw? 
 
From, 
Kelly 
USA

''{Strong Bad echos his own name. He says Kelly's name in a slightly seductive tone, leading into "USA" as "Oosa".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Mmmm! An exotic lady from the far east! ''{typing}'' That's kind of a vague question don'tcha think? That's like me asking, "Dear Kelly, what's your favorite molecule of air that you've breathed?" ''{not typed}'' Or... ''{clears screen, typing:}'' "What's your favorite Strong Bad muscle that you wanted to rub with hot oils?" You gotta narrow it down somehow. Like, do you wanna know about the coolest looking explosion I ever rigged up in Strong Sad's org-ethnic breakfast pouch on a Tuesday?

''{Cut to the kitchen of the Brothers Strong. Strong Bad is pretending to eat from a cereal bowl with a spoon. Strong Sad is standing next to him, wearing a tuxedo, and looking expectantly at a toaster.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{poorly acting}'' Mmm. This cereal is sooooo cerealy.

''{The toaster pops up a breakfast pastry with a conspicuous red light on it. Strong Sad catches it. Over the next line, the light begins to blink faster and faster while making ticking noises.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, child! I am gonna enjoy this saag paneer Pop-Tart with a vengeance! Then I've got to go stand around in this tuxedo with a ven— OOOHHH!!

''{The Pop-Tart explodes into green goo, which gets all over Strong Sad and leaves a green stain on the wall behind him.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Waa-ha-ha-ha!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Or do you wanna know like, the coolest explosion I ever saw that had one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings around it that've become so popular lately.

''{Cut to Strong Bad in his bathroom, holding a newspaper.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' 'Cuz I've caused ''plenty'' of those.

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But the coolest part was actually later on, when I was telling Coach Z all about it.

''{Cut to the Athletic Field. Strong Bad is talking to Coach Z.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And so first, there was this little explosion, that was like "Doooooosh!" ''{some drops of spit fly away from him toward Coach Z}''

'''COACH Z:''' Ya don't say?

'''STRONG BAD:''' And then secondary charges blew and it was like, "Ka-plssshhhhh!" ''{more drops of spit fly toward Coach Z}''

'''COACH Z:''' You say?

'''STRONG BAD:''' And finally one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings that've become so popular lately shot out, and was like "PSSSSSSHHHHH!!!!"

''{Strong Bad draws out the explosion. A wave of spit drops fly toward Coach Z. Coach Z pulls out a bar of soap and a bottle of "PORT PLUS +". He rubs the soap on his body and dumps some shampoo over his hat. He then tosses the bottle away and rubs his hat, which becomes sudsy.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Thanks for the great story, Strong Bad! I was gonna hit the showers, but now I don't has to!

''{Strong Bad spits a few more drops toward Coach Z. Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Everybody knows that the more spit it takes to describe an explosion, the cooler said explosion was. ''And'' the cooler said explosion-talker-abouter is!

''{Cut to Strong Sad talking to Coach Z in the Athletic Field.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' And then my saag paneer Pop-Tart said it like... "Ptoo."

''{A single large drop of spit flies toward Coach Z.}''

'''COACH Z:''' ''{angrily}'' Are you kiddin' me? I can't even warsh my hands with that mess!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But if history has taught us anything, then we all know that the coolest explosions have come from my very own computers.

''{A quick montage results where the Tandy explodes, throwing Strong Bad back, Strong Bad knocks the Tandy off the desk with an inexplicable explosion, Bubs' shotgun blows a hole in the Compy, Strong Mad gulps from a mini-explosion from the Compy, and the Tandy explodes in a green pixelated mushroom cloud with Homestar nearby. Cut back to the Lappy, with the female Lappy visible.}''

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' But waimt, Strong Bad, does that means?

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm afraid so, sweet Lappy. I figured that USB self-destruct button I bought a couple weeks ago woulda clued you in.

''{Cut to a closeup of a big red button with "dooj" written on it, connected to the Lappy via USB. Then cut to a rear view of the desk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' But... it's time. ''{Cut to behind Strong Bad}'' Why wait around for someone else to blow up your computer tomorrow when you can blow it up yourself today?

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' You should put that on your bwees-ness cards.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{mock-sadly}'' That's a great idea, Lappy. ''{cut to rear view of the desk}'' Good bye. ''{presses the button}'' Dooj.

''{Cut to a silhouette of the house with a tree beside it. The explosion knocks the tree away and blows the roof clear of the house. Two shockwaves appear as part of the explosion. A ghostly image of the Female Lappy icon with fangs appears in the explosion.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So popular lately.

''{Cut to Bubs and Coach Z on lawn chairs, watching the explosion.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Oooooor! Awwwwwr! 
'''BUBS:''' Ooooooh! Awwwwww!

'''COACH Z:''' I can't wait till Strong Bad tells me 'bout that one. I'm'a go ahead and strip down to da nude!

'''BUBS:''' ''{pointing at Coach Z}'' Ponk!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, standing next to the desk. Strong Bad himself is unharmed, but the desk it broken in two from the explosion, and the paint has been torn away.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And now that—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{poking in from the side}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' —is what I call—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{more angrily}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' —a—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{disappears off the side and reappears upside-down}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{jumping forward on his knee}'' —comeback!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{disappears and reappears rightside-up, makes an annoyed sigh}''

''{Homestar disappears while Strong Bad looks upward.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, if a paper survived that, maybe come down... now?

''{Black ashes fall from the top of the screen. Strong Bad looks down at them.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Looks like I need a new one of those, too.

'''Page Title:''' Lappy 486

==Transcript==
''{Homestar is sitting at his [[hremail]] desk. He has bags under his eyes and is slouching. He slips further and further down over the next line.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{half-mumbling}'' And that, Gordon Tiecollarondemous, is why I decided to ''keep'' calling you Gordon Tiecollarondemous...

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{from off-screen}'' Aaah! ''{A record scratch is heard.}'' I can't takes it no more!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, screaming.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Somebody hand me a rake!

''{A rake is handed to Strong Bad. He grabs it and smacks Homestar with it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Raaaake!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the rake}'' Somebody hand me a shovel!

''{A shovel is handed to him. He smacks Homestar with it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Shovel!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the shovel}'' Somebody hand me a Garden Weasel!

''{A tool with a very spiky end is handed to Strong Bad. Again, he hits Homestar. Homestar comes back up with a "CENSORED" sign over his face; bruises and a stream of blood can be seen around it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{calmly}'' Aw, a Weasel.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{wiping his brow}'' Phew.

''{Pan over to show Marzipan, holding the rake and shovel.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, Marzipan!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Always happy to help!

''{Cut to the Lappy. Strong Bad sits down in front of it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Sorry, Lappy. My triumphant return to checking emails calls for some fresh blood!

''{He closes the Lappy, leaving a faint backwards "Lappy 486" in the wall behind it. He pushes it off to the side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Tech nerds, feast your eyes... on ''Steak Sandwich!''

''{He places said sandwich on the desk in front of him to a trumpet fanfare. Cut to a solo image of the sandwich.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Steaky Steaky 6 Millenium Edition ''{a steak-shaped logo for this appears in the corner}'' is a processing wonder horse, capable of sauteed onions, ''{a logo for "Sauteed Onions Ghz" appears}'' grilled mushrooms, ''{a logo for "Grilled Mushrooms 32x" appears}'' and all right, never mind.

''{The Steak logo swivels as though its left side was no longer supported while the other logos fall off the screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' This is just a steak sandwich, isn't it?

''{Cut to a rear view of the desk, as Strong Bad looks at the sandwich.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know, I guess I'm a little... out-of-practice with this stuff. ''{to the Lappy}'' All right, Lappy, you can stay alive for at least one more week.

''{He pushes the sandwich aside and returns the Lappy to its rightful position. He opens the Lappy and a startup tone is heard. Cut to behind Strong Bad. The Female Lappy is visible.}''

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' Another week with you, Strong Bad, is like 8 dog-weeks in cat-years.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, are you sure you're not Senor Cardgage's computer?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' ''{from offscreen}'' No...

''{Cut back to show Senor Cardgage standing near Strong Bad, holding the sandwich.}''

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' This steak samwich is Beverly ''clearly'' my compooter, Bathsheba.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{smiling}'' Hey, Cardgage! D'you wanna help me come out of e-tirement?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' Ummmmm... no.

''{Strong Bad lowers his head in disappointment. Senor Cardgage turns around and starts walking in place while his hair gets slightly blown, and sounds of traffic are heard. Strong Bad looks up in confusion, and starts to nervously lean back.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm quite scared right now.

''{Cut to the Lappy as Strong Bad turns back to it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's start over. ''{types "strongbad_email.exe"}'' Oh, man, I haven't checked my email in so long, I bet there's gonna be a half-zillion messages waiting for me!

''{He presses Return. The following comes up with a ding: "Oh, smokes! You have 2 new messages!", which are "Coolness" from "Kelly" and "Thanks for loaning me your rake" from "Homestar".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Well, a half-''four'' messages waiting for me isn't bad. ''{He brings up "Coolness".}''

<blockquote class="email"><div>subject: coolness</div>

That Guy Over There: /**/Magnificent Marzipan

{{talk}}

==Category==
Should we categorize this as a toon, Homestar Runner email, or Strong Bad email? Maybe as all three? {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 06:42, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

:Definitely Hremail and Sbemail. It's already on the Email list, and it has Hremail already in the title. {{User:Itama/sig}} 06:46, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

::It's listed as a sbemail on homestarrunner.com. We should go with that.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 06:58, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

::: It's important to note that on the main page, it's listed as "New Toon," but does have "HREMAIL" in the title AND shows up in the SBEMAIL list on Denny's Menu... so, in a strange twist of fate, it is regarded as all three? [[User:Javaguy78|Javaguy78]] 14:15, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

That phrase Homestar says.. "Don't Call it a comeback"... isn't that an L.L. Cool J lyric?

== Fun Fact? ==

Should we add a fun fact that in the commentary for [[email thunder]], Matt Chapman said that there would be no more emails? Or is it not important enough? {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 08:50, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

== Easy Button? REALLY? ==

I was more reminded of those USB panic buttons and such, and TBH the 'easy button' isn't the only big red button out there. There's an excuse button, a bull**** button, an insult button, all kindsa buttons.
:I'm not trying to police the wiki, but I don't think you should use swear words, even on the talk pages. {{User:BubbleRevolution/sig}} 18:26, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
::No, really, they sell a such thing as a button that says 'Bull****' when you press it. And it's common courtesy not to edit peoples' statements on talk pages, so I'd like it if you don't edit what I said, even if for censorship purposes, which I don't really support anyway. [[Special:Contributions/98.176.133.158|98.176.133.158]] 21:33, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
:::Nobody cares what you don't support. Follow the rules, anonny. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 05:26, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
::::Please don't be hatin', peoples. If the curse word is removed per Wiki policy, then there's no need to continue the conversation. Back on the actual ''topic'' of this post, I think it looks really similar to the easy button, and is shown at a straight-on angle as in the commercials for whatever store (Office Max? Staples?). --{{User:Onamuji/sig}} 12:16, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::IMHO, it just looks like any other oversized red button. But whatever. [[Special:Contributions/98.176.133.158|98.176.133.158]] 13:29, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
::::::The easy button came to mind first for me, but I think nonetheless it's rather TTATOT. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 19:21, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== Trivia ==

I send a email for Homestar

Dear Strong Bad
the sbemail 200 is your last email. [[User:Lucsar|Lucsar]] 11:26, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

:Uhhhhhhh... no kiddin'... {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 11:51, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

::I think we should close this discussion topic. [[User:MenacingBanjo|MenacingBanjo]] 16:43, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== Disc 7 ==

So, having made this email, this either means TBC will put this on Everything Else Vol. 4, or strongbad_email.exe Disc 7. And if it is the email DVD, then they will have to make at least 29 more. And then stopping at 230 would look untidy, so then they might make another 70 and release it as discs 8 and 9. But then they might want to take it up to at least an even 10... Hmmmmmmm... {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 11:55, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

:Or maybe they don't _have_ to make anything but rather just do stuff they like whenever they have an idea and the time. ;) If they should decide to end sbemails for good one day and happen to end them with an uneven number or too little content for a new DVD, they can do that. They could put them on a mixed DVD with "Everything Else" or just leave it at that and never sell them at all. Or they would find other options. Anyway, I think you get my point. ;) (It's me, Cass from Germany. Comp just logged me out.) --[[Special:Contributions/95.222.57.4|95.222.57.4]] 12:17, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

::Yeah, maybe that would have been better to put on the forum... {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 09:14, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== Beth-shiba? ==

Is Senor Cardgage saying, "Beth-shiba," as written in the transcript, or [[Wikipedia:Bathsheba|Bathsheba]]?
:I'm pretty sure it's "Beth", because this is Senor we're talking about. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:37, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

:::::I tried, but it got removed as a "common name." I'm pretty sure it's not such in the US, at least outside of specific jewish communities, and even then I'd bet it's largely traceable to the Bathsheba refered to in the wiki link, but I'll let the wiki community decide, I guess. -[[Special:Contributions/132.183.140.130|132.183.140.130]] 17:04, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::As for pronunciation, i'm neutral... it's could be a portmanteau between "beth" and "bathsheba", or just "bathsheba". that's not why i'm commenting. I'm commenting because it is certainly not a RWR, and probably isn't necessary as an explanation. I feel like it's a commonly enough KNOWN name, even if not many people HAVE it. But then again, i do come from one of those jewish-type communities the anonny mentioned, so i may have a bit of a skewed perception. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 17:51, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== Moonwalking? ==

Is it just me, or does Senor Cardgage's walking in place look like a tribute to Michael Jackson's moonwalk move?

It's just you.--[[Special:Contributions/206.205.184.2|206.205.184.2]] 14:20, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

:Maybe if he had been walking backwards, but the way it was done, it seemed like it was just supposed to be some weird thing. [[User:Monkeytender|Monkeytender]] 14:27, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
::That's what i thought of given recent events, but [[Best_Caper_Ever#Real-World_References|you can't really say they would do something like that]], can you? {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 23:03, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

== Lappy 486 and Paper 2.0: Rest In Peace==
They killed off Lappy the same way they killed of Tandy, I wonder what new computer will replace it. Perhaps Strong Bad and Homestar will answer an email together. [[User:MICGAGUH]]
:Sorry, but stuff like this really belongs on the forum. [[User:Monkeytender|Monkeytender]] 14:48, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

== Kelly-usa? ==

This seems unlikely, but did anyone else think "Kelly-Usa" ("oosa") was a reference to Sailor Moon? There's a character named Chibi-Usa with the last part also pronounced "oosa." Being from a Japanese anime, it'd explain the "exotic lady from the Far East" comment. Reasons this is improbable: (1) -usa is not an honorific in Japan and was unique to the one character, making this reference pretty specific; (2) Chibi-Usa was a little girl, not an "exotic lady"; and (3) really, Sailor Moon?

If someone has an alternative explanation of SB's reaction, I'd like to see it.
:Actually, it's probably just an extention of the Homenadé joke made in [[Donut Unto Others]]. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 15:10, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

== sbemail201 ==

Do you think this counts as sbemail201? Because if not, sbemail201.html will be the first official sbemail to not be located at "sbeamil{#}.html". {{User:The thing/sig}} 15:59, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
:Yes, it counts (it's on the sbemail menu on the site), and [[flashback|no]], [[senior prom|it]] [[email thunder|won't]]. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:03, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
:It counts, and it's not the first. [[senior prom]] was located at "kingpoptoon.html".
::There an echo in here? --[[User:Jay|''Jay'']] [[User:Jay|''Jay'']] [[User:Jay|''Jay'']] [[User:Jay|''Jay'']] 17:34, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
:::speaking of echoes, when he says, "Dear Strong Bad Strong Bad Strong Bad Strong Bad", that echo has happened in at least one e-mail before. is this notable? incidentally, the file is kotpoptoon.html, not kingpoptoon, but w/e {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 21:24, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
::::and which email was it? {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 23:09, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

== Name styles ==

This may need to be listed on the [[HRW:STYLES|manual of style]] or its talk page, but I just wanted to state somewhere that this toon should be referred to as [[hremail3184]] when listed as a Strong Bad Email and [[Hremail 3184]] when listed as a Hremail or when TBC list it as such. I think our usage to this point has been consistent with the guideline, but I figured it should at least be mentioned out loud. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:43, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
:I was the one who originally moved the page from [[Hremail 3184]] to [[hremail3184]], and I wasn't sure if I should fix the pages listed in "What links here?" for the former article. I suppose that clears it up. [[User:Dalkaen|Dalkaen]] 04:29, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== scroll buttons ==

there is no scroll buttons song as of this sbemail

Yeah. We know. It's been stated on the page. {{User:BubbleRevolution/sig}} 18:26, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

:Hey, I did that! {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 09:17, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== takes, has, means... ==

So, at least three times in this email, the characters use the wrong word in a sentence. For example, SB says "I can't takes it no more", Coach Z says "... now I don't has to" and the Lappy asks, "does that means?" Are these mentionable? I think they are, in the same vein that "Be's careful" and "be's'ing mean..." were in previous emails... but how do we mention them in this email.... a little help? [[User:Javaguy78|Javaguy78]] 21:40, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
:"This email contains several instances of [[Deliberately Poor English]]." --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 21:55, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

== Identical explosion marks? ==

I dunno if anyone else noticed, but the explosion mark at the end of this toon is the exact same vector shape that was used in the same spot back in 'virus', after Bubs shot the Compy.
:I did notice, but I wasn't sure if it was worth noting. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 05:31, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

==32X Reference==

I did a basic edit about the Grilled mushrooms 32x reference, but since I'm new at this can some one perfect it?

==So popular lately==

Gas rings around explosions in pop culture probably started with the Star Wars Special Editions. Worth a Real World Reference?
:Unless you can make that "probably" into a "definitely", I'd say not. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:07, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Well, there are certainly earlier examples, notably in Star Treks II and VI, but the idea of adding a shock-wavey Saturn ring to make an explosion 'fancier' definitely starts with the SW SEs. Not that there's anything 'lately' about 1997, but SB probably doesn't have a DVD player yet. :)
:Meh, I think it's a bit [[TTATOT]]. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 05:33, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

==PONK!==
Anyone else notice the name of the beer Bubs was drinking?--[[User:Robotguy4|Robotguy4]] 05:17, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
:It is clearly "PONK!" Point? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 09:57, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
::I think [http://www.teamfortress.com/scoutupdate/energydrink.htm this] is his point. It really seems like it's a ''[[Wikipedia:Team Fortress 2|Team Fortress 2]]'' reference (right down to Bubs mimicking the Scout's constant "BONK" proclamations); I just haven't added it in because the relationship isn't absolutely obvious. --[[User:Shadow Hog|Shadow Hog]] 15:08, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

==Other Info==

Is anyone planning on putting the writing from Strong Bad's newspaper and business card in the article? [[User:CloneWarrior|CloneWarrior]] 08:38, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
:Bwees-ness card is a good idea, and we would all be grateful for the addition of it. Da NewsPapes, however, (and correct me if I'm wrong) says exactly the same thing it has in its other SB-on-da-toilet scenes, so it needs no transcription. --{{User:Onamuji/sig}} 12:07, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== Speech Impediment ==

Is it me, or does Homestar's Speech Impediment is kinda missing at the beginning of the hremail?--{{User:Darkangel/sig}} 08:54, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== traffic ==

Do the sounds of traffic during Senor Cardgage's part sound like the traffic in his part during the FBI Warning on strongbad_email.exe Disc Six? -Logged Out Open Source Greg
:It sounds like it might be the same, but that's a note for [[Sound Effects]]. --{{User:Onamuji/sig}} 12:07, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== No Broken Lappy Menu? ==

I think this is the first sbemail where a computer explodes and there is no special menu for the broken computer, like after the tandy and the compy. I can't remember if those came in right away, or a few days later. [[User:Nynexman4464|Nynexman4464]] 14:48, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
:I believe there's been a gap in between the destruction of the computer and the broken menu. The dates on [[virus]] and [[Broken Compy Menu]] back that up. It's probably done that way to avoid spoiling the surprise of the destruction. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 17:42, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

== Magnificent Marzipan ==

* The Magnificent Marzipan is a nod to [[Wikipedia:Sensational_Sherri|Sensational Sherri]] and/or [[Wikipedia:Don_Muraco|The Magnificent Muraco]].

What evidence is there to support this claim aside from the alliteration? This seems extremely weak to me. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 20:46, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

'''Page Title:''' Lappy 486

==Transcript==
''{Homestar is sitting at his [[hremail]] desk. He has bags under his eyes and is slouching. He slips further and further down over the next line.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{half-mumbling}'' And that, Gordon Titanamonderous, is why I decided to ''keep'' calling you Gordon Titanamonderous...

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{from off-screen}'' Aaah! ''{A record scratch is heard.}'' I can't takes it no more!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, screaming.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Somebody hand me a rake!

''{A rake is handed to Strong Bad. He grabs it and smacks Homestar with it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Raaaake!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the rake}'' Somebody hand me a shovel!

''{A shovel is handed to him. He smacks Homestar with it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Shovel!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the shovel}'' Somebody hand me a Garden Weasel!

''{A tool with a very spiky end is handed to Strong Bad. Again, he hits Homestar. Homestar comes back up with a "CENSORED" sign over his face; bruises and a stream of blood can be seen around it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{calmly}'' Aw, a Weasel.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{wiping his brow}'' Phew.

''{Pan over to show Marzipan, holding the rake and shovel.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, Marzipan!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Always happy to help!

''{Cut to the Lappy. Strong Bad sits down in front of it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Sorry, Lappy. My triumphant return to checking emails calls for some fresh blood!

''{He closes the Lappy, leaving a faint backwards "Lappy 486" in the wall behind it. He pushes it off to the side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Tech nerds, feast your eyes... on ''Steak Sandwich!''

''{He places said sandwich on the desk in front of him to a trumpet fanfare. Cut to a solo image of the sandwich.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Steaky Steaky 6 Millenium Edition ''{a steak-shaped logo for this appears in the corner}'' is a processing wonder horse, capable of sauteed onions, ''{a logo for "Sauteed Onions Ghz" appears}'' grilled mushrooms, ''{a logo for "Grilled Mushrooms 32x" appears}'' and all right, never mind.

''{The Steak logo swivels as though its left side was no longer supported while the other logos fall off the screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' This is just a steak sandwich, isn't it?

''{Cut to a rear view of the desk, as Strong Bad looks at the sandwich.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know, I guess I'm a little... out-of-practice with this stuff. ''{to the Lappy}'' All right, Lappy, you can stay alive for at least one more week.

''{He pushes the sandwich aside and returns the Lappy to its rightful position. He opens the Lappy and a startup tone is heard. Cut to behind Strong Bad. The Female Lappy is visible.}''

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' Another week with you, Strong Bad, is like 8 dog-weeks in cat-years.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, are you sure you're not Senor Cardgage's computer?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' ''{from offscreen}'' No...

''{Cut back to show Senor Cardgage standing near Strong Bad, holding the sandwich.}''

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' This steak samwich is Beverly ''clearly'' my compooter, Bathsheba.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{smiling}'' Hey, Cardgage! D'you wanna help me come out of e-tirement?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' Ummmmm... no.

''{Strong Bad lowers his head in disappointment. Senor Cardgage turns around and starts walking in place, while sounds of traffic are heard. Strong Bad looks up in confusion, and starts to nervously lean back.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm quite scared right now.

''{Cut to the Lappy as Strong Bad turns back to it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's start over. ''{types "strongbad_email.exe"}'' Oh, man, I haven't checked my email in so long, I bet there's gonna be a half-zillion messages waiting for me!

''{He presses Return. The following comes up with a ding: "Oh, smokes! You have 2 new messages!", which are "Coolness" from "Kelly" and "Thanks for loaning me your rake" from "Homestar".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Well, a half-''four'' messages waiting for me isn't bad. ''{He brings up "Coolness".}''

<blockquote class="email"><div>subject: coolness</div>
Dear Strong Bad, 
What was the coolest explosion you ever saw? 
 
From, 
Kelly 
USA
</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad echos his own name. He says Kelly's name in a slightly seductive tone, leading into "USA" as "Oosa".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Mmmm! An exotic lady from the far east! ''{typing}'' That's kind of a vague question don'tcha think? That's like me asking, "Dear Kelly, what's your favorite molecule of air that you've breathed?" ''{not typed}'' Or... ''{clears screen, typing:}'' "What's your favorite Strong Bad muscle that you wanted to rub with hot oils?" You gotta narrow it down somehow. Like, do you wanna know about the coolest looking explosion I ever rigged up in Strong Sad's org-ethnic breakfast pouch on a Tuesday?

''{Cut to the kitchen of the Brothers Strong. Strong Bad is eating from a cereal bowl with a spoon. Strong Sad is standing next to him, wearing a tuxedo, and looking expectantly at a toaster.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{poorly acting}'' Mmm. This cereal is sooooo cerealy.

''{The toaster pops up a breakfast pastry with a conspicuous red light on it. Strong Sad catches it. Over the next line, the light begins to blink faster and faster while making ticking noises.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, child! I am gonna enjoy this saag paneer Pop-Tart with a vengeance! Then I've got to go stand around in this tuxedo with a ven— OOOHHH!!

''{The Pop-Tart explodes into green goo, which gets all over Strong Sad and leaves a green stain on the wall behind him.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Waa-ha-ha-ha!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Or do you wanna know like, the coolest explosion I ever saw that had one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings around it that've become so popular lately.

''{Cut to Strong Bad in his bathroom, holding a newspaper.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' 'Cuz I've caused ''plenty'' of those.

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But the coolest part was actually later on, when I was telling Coach Z all about it.

''{Cut to the Athletic Field. Strong Bad is talking to Coach Z.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And so first, there was this little explosion, that was like "Doooooosh!" ''{some drops of spit fly away from him toward Coach Z}''

'''COACH Z:''' Ya don't say?

'''STRONG BAD:''' And then secondary charges blew and it was like, "Ka-plssshhhhh!" ''{more drops of spit fly toward Coach Z}''

'''COACH Z:''' You say?

'''STRONG BAD:''' And finally one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings that've become so popular lately shot out, and was like "PSSSSSSHHHHH!!!!"

''{Strong Bad draws out the explosion. A wave of spit drops fly toward Coach Z. Coach Z pulls out a bar of soap and a bottle of "PORT PLUS +". He rubs the soap on his body and dumps some shampoo over his hat. He then tosses the bottle away and rubs his hat, which becomes sudsy.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Thanks for the great story, Strong Bad! I was gonna hit the showers, but now I don't has to!

''{Strong Bad spits a few more drops toward Coach Z. Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Everybody knows that the more spit it takes to describe an explosion, the cooler said explosion was. ''And'' the cooler said explosion-talker-abouter is!

''{Cut to Strong Sad talking to Coach Z in the Athletic Field.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' And then my saag paneer Pop-Tart said it like... "Ptoo."

''{A single large drop of spit flies toward Coach Z.}''

'''COACH Z:''' ''{angrily}'' Are you kiddin' me? I can't even warsh my hands with that mess!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But if history has taught us anything, then we all know that the coolest explosions have come from my very own computers.

''{A quick montage results where the Tandy explodes, throwing Strong Bad back, Strong Bad knocks the Tandy off the desk with an inexplicable explosion, Bubs' shotgun blows a hole in the Compy, Strong Mad gulps from a mini-explosion from the Compy, and the Tandy explodes in a green pixelated mushroom cloud with Homestar nearby. Cut back to the Lappy, with the female Lappy visible.}''

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' But waimt, Strong Bad, does that means?

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm afraid so, sweet Lappy. I figured that USB self-destruct button I bought a couple weeks ago woulda clued you in.

''{Cut to a closeup of a big red button with "dooj" written on it, connected to the Lappy via USB. Then cut to a rear view of the desk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' But... it's time. ''{Cut to behind Strong Bad}'' Why wait around for someone else to blow up your computer tomorrow when you can blow it up yourself today?

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' You should put that on your bwees-ness cards.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{mock-sadly}'' That's a great idea, Lappy. ''{cut to rear view of the desk}'' Good bye. ''{presses the button}'' Dooj.

''{Cut to a silhouette of the house with a tree beside it. The explosion knocks the tree away and blows the roof clear of the house. Two shockwaves appear as part of the explosion. A ghostly image of the Female Lappy icon with fangs appears in the explosion.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So popular lately.

''{Cut to Bubs and Coach Z on lawn chairs, watching the explosion.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Oooooor! Awwwwwr! 
'''BUBS:''' Ooooooh! Awwwwww!

'''COACH Z:''' I can't wait till Strong Bad tells me 'bout that one. I'm'a go ahead and strip down to da nude!

'''BUBS:''' ''{pointing at Coach Z}'' Ponk!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, standing next to the desk. Strong Bad himself is unharmed, but the desk it broken in two from the explosion, and the paint has been torn away.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And now that—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{poking in from the side}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' —is what I call—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{more angrily}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' —a—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{disappears off the side and reappears upside-down}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{jumping forward on his knee}'' —comeback!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{disappears and reappears rightside-up, makes an annoyed sigh}''

''{Homestar disappears while Strong Bad looks upward.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, if a paper survived that, maybe come down... now?

''{Black ashes fall from the top of the screen. Strong Bad looks down at them.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Looks like I need a new one of those, too.

==Easter Eggs==
*When the [[Lappy]] tells [[Strong Bad]] to put his catch phrase about computer destruction on his "bwees-ness" cards, click "bwees-ness card" to see a business card for a computer destruction business.
*At the end, click on the hole in the wall to see an exchange between [[Strong Sad]] as the Gardenboy from [[yes, wrestling]] and [[The Announcer]].
:''{Cut to a scene at the [[Gymnasium]] with The Announcer at the left and Garden Boy at the right}''
:'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, you know, announcer man, that's right! All you gophers out there better listen up! The Magnificent Marzipan stole all Garden Boy's garden tools, and I don't care if she's a women's champion, a men's champion, a half woman-half man's champion... Uh, do we have one of those?
:'''THE ANNOUNCER:''' Uh, yes, I believe we do.
:'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, can I fight them instead?

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*[[Wikipedia:Saag|Saag paneer]] is an Indian curry based dish consisting of spinach, mustard leaf, and cheese.

===Trivia===
[[File:Homestar uncensored.png|thumb|"Aw, a Weasel."]]
*The hiatus between [[email thunder]] and this email (280 days, or nine months and one week) is the longest gap between any two Strong Bad Emails.
*Although it is only visible for a fraction of a second, the text on Homestar's desk has now been changed to "Still this guy!"
*When the Flash file is decompiled, Homestar's battered face is visible behind the censored box.
*The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container|mega race]]".
*This episode marks the first time Strong Bad actually acknowledges how creepy [[Senor Cardgage]] is.
*This is the first time the exterior of [[House of the Brothers Strong|Strong Bad's house]] is shown outside of [[SBCG4AP]].

===Remarks===
*In his flashback, Strong Bad knocks the broken [[Tandy 400]] off his desk to an explosion. There was no such explosion in [[invisibility]].
* In [[virus]], the virus caused everything to become corrupted. As part of the corruption, Bubs' shotgun resembled Homestar's leg. However, in the flashback, the shotgun is clearly still a shotgun even before the [[Compy 386]] is shot.
** After the virus was gone, Bubs was seen using a pump action shotgun, when in this clip, it is a double-barreled shotgun.
* Homestar Runner's email was not blocked by Edgar's Baby's Daddy or his Idiot Filter, as all Homestar emails are in [[candy product]] and [[Strong Badia the Free]], respectively.
* The USB standard had not yet been invented at the time 486-based laptops were available.

===Goofs===
*When Homestar is hit with the Garden Weasel, his face is still visible. The bruises, scars, and blood only appear ''after'' the camera zooms in.
*When the ashes of the paper come down, they fall in front of Strong Bad, but after, some are behind Strong Bad on the floor.
*When Strong Bad is holding the Garden Weasel and wiping his head, the arm wiping his head is not visible.
*The word "millennium" is misspelled during the description of the steak sandwich.

===Inside References===
*The text on the mug on Homestar's desk appears to read "Auntie Gertr♥de's Tea", which is likely a reference to [[Aunt Gert]], the pantyhose doll from [[garage sale]].
*[[Onomatopoeia|Dooj]], as the USB self-destruct button reads, is a common sound effect used for explosions in the Homestar Runner Universe.
*The scene of Bubs and Coach Z in the field is reminiscent of [[Happy Fireworks]], in which the two watched [[fireworks]] in a similar fashion.
**Likewise, the can of [[Cold One#Coldson Lite|Coldson Lite]] reappears.
*Strong Sad's "Gardenboy" wrestling persona (seen in the Easter egg) originated in the email [[yes, wrestling]].
*The entire toon is about [[explosions]]. [[Image:Lappy Explosion.JPG|thumb|The Lappy goeth into the NIIIIIIGHTTTT!]]
*Strong Bad [[Strong Bad Smiling|smiles]] when Senor Cardgage first shows up in his house, and he and [[Strong Sad Smiling|Strong Sad]] both smile in the Pop-Tart scene.
*Although censored, [[blood]] can still be seen trickling down Homestar Runner's face after being hit with the garden weasel.
*The scene in which Strong Bad introduces his "new computer" is a parody of the [[Lappy 486]]'s intro in the email [[animal]]. The background is originally from [[The Show]].
*Coach Z's "Port Plus" was previously mentioned in [[Jibblies 2]], where he asked the [[Horrible Painting]] for some.
*The Lappy's pronunciation "bwees-ness" was used previously in [[theme park]], where Strong Bad makes fun of how the email's author misspells "business".
*Strong Sad exclaiming "Oh, child!" echoes [[retirement]], when the Lappy exclaimed the same thing.
*The "Fightin' Coach Zs" logo from [[One Two, One Two]] appears on the athletic field.
*Strong Bad's line "Aaah! I can't takes it no more!" from offscreen is reminiscent of [[First Time Here?]].
*"Org-ethnic" is a [[portmanteau]] of "[[organic]]" and "ethnic".

===Real-World References===
*The [[Wikipedia:Garden Weasel|Garden Weasel]] is a garden implement made famous mainly through late night infomercials.
* Strong Bad's remark that Kelly-Usa sounds exotic is a reference to the [http://www.snopes.com/business/genius/usa.asp urban legend] about Japan renaming a town Usa. This legend was also referenced in [[Donut Unto Others]].
*Senor Cardgage's "Beverly clearly" is a reference to children's author [[Wikipedia:Beverly Cleary|Beverly Cleary]].
*Coach Z's "PORT PLUS +" is a reference to the shampoo/conditioner "Pert Plus", just in a Coach Z accent.
*Strong Bad's "Dooj" button resembles the "Easy" button from commercials for [[Wikipedia:Staples Inc.|Staples]], an office supply chain.
*Homestar repeating the phrase "Don't call it a comeback", is a reference to the first line of "[[WIkipedia:Mama_Said_Knock_You_Out_(song)|Mama Said Knock You Out]]" by [[Wikipedia:LL Cool J|LL Cool J]].
*Gardenboy's line in the Easter Egg that he doesn't care if Marzipan is a "women's champion or man's champion..." is a nod to [[Wikipedia:Andy_Kaufman|Andy Kaufman]], the intergender wrestling champion.

'''Running Time:''' 5:04

'''Page Title:''' Lappy 486

==Transcript==
''{Homestar is sitting at his hremail desk. He has bags under his eyes and is slouching. He slips further and further down over the next line.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{half-mumbling}'' And that, Gordon Titanamonderous, is why I decided to ''keep'' calling you Gordon Titanamonderous...

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{from off-screen}'' Aaah! I can't takes it no more!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, screaming.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Somebody hand me a rake!

''{A rake is handed to Strong Bad. He grabs it and smacks Homestar with it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Raaaake!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the rake}'' Somebody hand me a shovel!

''{A shovel is handed to him. He smacks Homestar with it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Shovel!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the shovel}'' Somebody hand me a Garden Weasel!

''{A tool with a very spiky end is handed to Strong Bad. Again, he hits Homestar. Homestar comes back up with a "CENSORED" sign over his face; bruises and a stream of blood can be seen around it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{calmly}'' Aw, a Weasel.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{wiping his brow}'' Phew.

''{Pan over to show Marzipan, holding the rake and shovel.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, Marzipan!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Always happy to help!

''{Cut to the Lappy. Strong Bad sits down in front of it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Sorry, Lappy. My triumphant return to checking emails calls for some fresh blood!

''{He closes the Lappy, leaving a faint backwards "Lappy 486" in the wall behind it. He pushes it off to the side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Tech nerds, feast your eyes... on ''Steak Sandwich!''

''{He places said sandwich on the desk in front of him to a trumpet fanfare. Cut to a solo image of the sandwich.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Steaky Steaky 6 Millenium Edition ''{a steak-shaped logo for this appears in the corner}'' is a processing wonder horse, capable of sauteed onions, ''{a logo for "Sauteed Onions Ghz" appears}'' grilled mushrooms, ''{a logo for "Grilled Mushrooms 32x" appears}'' and all right, never mind.

''{The Steak logo swivels as though its left side was no longer supported while the other logos fall off the screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' This is just a steak sandwich, isn't it?

''{Cut to a rear view of the desk, as Strong Bad looks at the sandwich.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know, I guess I'm a little... out-of-practice with this stuff. ''{to the Lappy}'' All right, Lappy, you can stay alive for at least one more week.

''{He pushes the sandwich aside and returns the Lappy to its rightful position. He opens the Lappy and a startup tone is heard. Cut to behind Strong Bad. The Female Lappy is visible.}''

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' Another week with you, Strong Bad, is like 8 dog-weeks in cat-years.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, are you sure you're not Senor Cardgage's computer?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' ''{from offscreen}'' No...

''{Cut back to show Senor Cardgage standing near Strong Bad, holding the sandwich.}''

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' This steak samwich is Beverly ''clearly'' my compooter, Bathsheba.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{smiling}'' Hey, Cardgage! D'you wanna help me come out of e-tirement?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' Ummmmm... no.

''{Strong Bad lowers his head in disappointment. Senor Cardgage turns around and starts walking in place, while sounds of traffic are heard. Strong Bad looks up in confusion, and starts to nervously lean back.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm quite scared right now.

''{Cut to the Lappy as Strong Bad turns back to it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's start over. ''{types "strongbad_email.exe"}'' Oh, man, I haven't checked my email in so long, I bet there's gonna be a half-zillion messages waiting for me!

''{He presses Return. The following comes up with a ding: "Oh, smokes! You have 2 new messages!", which are "Coolness" from "Kelly" and "Thanks for loaning me your rake" from "Homestar".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Well, a half-''four'' messages waiting for me isn't bad. ''{He brings up "Coolness".}''

<blockquote class="email"><div>subject: coolness</div>
Dear Strong Bad, 
What was the coolest explosion you ever saw? 
 
From, 
Kelly 
USA
</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad echos his own name. He says Kelly's name in a slightly seductive tone, leading into "USA" as "Oosa".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Mmmm! An exotic lady from the far east! ''{typing}'' That's kind of a vague question don'tcha think? That's like me asking, "Dear Kelly, what's your favorite molecule of air that you've breathed?" ''{not typed}'' Or... ''{clears screen, typing:}'' "What's your favorite Strong Bad muscle that you wanted to rub with hot oils?" You gotta narrow it down somehow. Like, do you wanna know about the coolest looking explosion I ever rigged up in Strong Sad's org-ethnic breakfast pouch on a Tuesday?

''{Cut to the kitchen of the Brothers Strong. Strong Bad is eating from a cereal bowl with a spoon. Strong Sad is standing next to him, wearing a tuxedo, and looking expectantly at a toaster.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{poorly acting}'' Mmm. This cereal is sooooo cerealy.

''{The toaster pops up a breakfast pastry with a conspicuous red light on it. Strong Sad catches it. Over the next line, the light begins to blink faster and faster while making ticking noises.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, child! I am gonna enjoy this saag paneer Pop-Tart with a vengeance! Then I've got to go stand around in this tuxedo with a ven— OOOHHH!!

''{The Pop-Tart explodes into green goo, which gets all over Strong Sad and leaves a green stain on the wall behind him.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Waa-ha-ha-ha!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Or do you wanna know like, the coolest explosion I ever saw that had one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings around it that've become so popular lately.

''{Cut to Strong Bad in his bathroom, holding a newspaper.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' 'Cuz I've caused ''plenty'' of those.

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But the coolest part was actually later on, when I was telling Coach Z all about it.

''{Cut to the Athletic Field. Strong Bad is talking to Coach Z.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And so first, there was this little explosion, that was like "Doooooosh!" ''{some drops of spit fly away from him toward Coach Z}''

'''COACH Z:''' Ya don't say?

'''STRONG BAD:''' And then secondary charges blew and it was like, "Ka-plssshhhhh!" ''{more drops of spit fly toward Coach Z}''

'''COACH Z:''' You say?

'''STRONG BAD:''' And finally one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings that've become so popular lately shot out, and was like "PSSSSSSHHHHH!!!!"

''{Strong Bad draws out the explosion. A wave of spit drops fly toward Coach Z. Coach Z pulls out a bar of soap and a bottle of "PORT PLUS +". He rubs the soap on his body and dumps some shampoo over his hat. He then tosses the bottle away and rubs his hat, which becomes sudsy.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Thanks for the great story, Strong Bad! I was gonna hit the showers, but now I don't has to!

''{Strong Bad spits a few more drops toward Coach Z. Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Everybody knows that the more spit it takes to describe an explosion, the cooler said explosion was. ''And'' the cooler said explosion-talker-abouter is!

''{Cut to Strong Sad talking to Coach Z in the Athletic Field.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' And then my saag paneer Pop-Tart said it like... "Ptoo."

''{A single large drop of spit flies toward Coach Z.}''

'''COACH Z:''' ''{angrily}'' Are you kiddin' me? I can't even warsh my hands with that mess!

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But if history has taught us anything, then we all know that the coolest explosions have come from my very own computers.

''{A quick montage results where the Tandy explodes, throwing Strong Bad back, Strong Bad knocks the Tandy off the desk with an inexplicable explosion, Bubs' shotgun blows a hole in the Compy, Strong Mad gulps from a mini-explosion from the Compy, and the Tandy explodes in a green pixelated mushroom cloud with Homestar nearby. Cut back to the Lappy, with the female Lappy visible.}''

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' But waimt, Strong Bad, does that means?

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm afraid so, sweet Lappy. I figured that USB self-destruct button I bought a couple weeks ago woulda clued you in.

''{Cut to a closeup of a big red button with "dooj" written on it, connected to the Lappy via USB. Then cut to a rear view of the desk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' But... it's time. ''{Cut to behind Strong Bad}'' Why wait around for someone else to blow up your computer tomorrow when you can blow it up yourself today?

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' You should put that on your bwees-ness cards.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{mock-sadly}'' That's a great idea, Lappy. ''{cut to rear view of the desk}'' Good bye. ''{presses the button}'' Dooj.

''{Cut to a silhouette of the house with a tree beside it. The explosion knocks the tree away and blows the roof clear of the house. Two shockwaves appear as part of the explosion. A ghostly image of the Female Lappy icon with fangs appears in the explosion.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So popular lately.

''{Cut to Bubs and Coach Z on lawn chairs, watching the explosion.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Oooooor! Awwwwwr! 
'''BUBS:''' Ooooooh! Awwwwww!

'''COACH Z:''' I can't wait till Strong Bad tells me 'bout that one. I'm'a go ahead and strip down to da nude!

'''BUBS:''' ''{pointing at Coach Z}'' Ponk!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, standing next to the desk. Strong Bad himself is unharmed, but the desk it broken in two from the explosion, and the paint has been torn away.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And now that—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{poking in from the side}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' —is what I call—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Don't call it a comeback.

''{Homestar disappears while Strong Bad looks upward.}''

For the record... I don't think they'd end the whole site. If this is "the end", it's probably just the last SBEMail. After which, they'd start something new. But that said, it's all just speculation on my part. The ending song "Save the last e-mail for Strong Bad" kinda hinted at that, though... But, yeah, as DumDe said, it also doesn't really fit that the Paper came down at the end. Why e-mail Strong Bad if there're gonna be no more SBEMail toons? Like I said, I'm probably jumping the gun.

I doubt they'd just ditch the site altogether. How many people, after all, have the dream life they do? To be able to make good money doing something they've always loved, and from the comfort of their own homes, no less. To give it all up and get "outside" jobs would be impractical, especially when you consider that Missy is pregnant, and she'd need Mike more than ever.

== Senor Cardgage Fishing Easter Egg-- Connection? ==

The odd "echo" sound effect heard in the fishing easter egg is also used in the first episode of the mockumentary TV series "Fishing with John", by actor/musician John Lurie.

I'm assuming that this is a stock sound effect, and simply a coincidence. To my knowledge, the similarities end with the sound itself and "fishing". But as a fan of both homestarrunner.com and Fishing with John, it made me laugh.

Fishing with John seems like the kind of indie/cult television show that ''could'' be referenced by HSR, though.

Anyone else think of this? - C

: Well, the same sound effect was used in the "Fishing with Coach Z" segment in [[lures & jigs]], I'd say it was probably intentional (check out the commentary transcript for that email). {{User:Saturn/sig}}

Haha! That's so awesome. I haven't viewed lures & jigs since before I got my hands on Fishing with John. - C

==No Little Strong Bad==

Not only is their no PBTC Strong Bad, but there isn't any Little Strong Bad, from [[flashback]] and [[highschool]]
:[[Atari Strong Bad]] is missing as well, as are any self portraits of him in Teen Girl Squad. Four of the made up animals are vacant also. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 18:12, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
::And plus, there's no [[highschool|Strongbadiophage]]. [[User:Trelawney|Trelawney]]

===List of missing Variations===
*PBTC - Does not exist in an alternate reality, Strong Bad has watched the toons of himself before.
*[[Little Strong Bad]] and Baby Strong Bad - It was an alternate reality machine, not a time machine.
*[[Made-Up Strong Bad Animals]] - Just Sterrence would have made more sense, but I guess they liked Da Huuuudge enough to represent him too.
*[[Atari Strong Bad]] - All video games represented by Vector.
*Self Portraits, Drawings, Etc - They aren't supposed to be alive or anything, just a portrait.
*Strongbadiophage - Yeah, he could have been there. But also represented by Teenage Strong Bad.
*[[Teen Girl Squad]] - Presumably, the comic variations are represented by Strong Badman. Also, as with PBTC, it does not exist in an alternate reality; Strong Bad made them himself. What's more, they technically are drawings.
*The [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]] version - Again, it's an alternate reality machine, not a time machine. It's one of the earliest forms of the Strong Bad as we know him today.

Seems like there's plausible reasons for missing variations by my viewpoint. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 19:03, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

I understand all of those reasons except PBTC. Seriously, why does it have to be made be Strong Bad? It's an alternate version! He even features on the Everybody Everybody poster.

:::Maybe they wanted to keep the repetition to a minimum?

:Yeah, it would have cool if they did a pop-up world. Though it might end up being too much like the Strong Badman comic. {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 22:55, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
Also there was no Catlefunnies Strong Bad or Dangeresque. But Dangeresque I can understand. {{User:Salty/sig}} 18:04, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
:Dangeresque was *sorta* there. Strong Bad wears his Dangeresque sunglasses in the scene where "Tiny-Handed Strong Bad" is "digging to China with his ears". I'm fairly certain that was an intentional Dangeresque reference. -{{User:YK/sig}} 04:18, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

What about the Teen Girl Squad variations? None of those ones are here either. I guess as with the PBTC versions, they don't exist in an alternate reality; Strong Bad made them himself, so they basically count as drawings. However, here's what I think should have happen if they did include a TGS scene: Strong Bad sees his TGS form making out with the hot version of The Ugly One, as seen in Issue 10. He then proceeds to make out with her himself, only to disappear suddenly. Strong Bad himself makes the disappearing noise. I think that's how it would happen if Strong Bad mets his TGS form. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 19:27, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

It's not like Strong Bad would actually visit every single alternate universe, you know. He probably only ended up in a few, and um... the rest were offscreen durring the song and had no solos. yah.

===Characters that shouldn't have been there===

*Old-Timey Strong Bad - Exists in the past, not an alternate realty. Explained in the 100th email, with him mailing half a mustache to SB.
*Senor Cardgage - Seen around FCUSA often. Unless that was supposed to be creepy comb over Strong Bad.
:From [[Senor Mortgage]]'s toon description: ''Wait. Is Senor Cardgage real?!'' {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 09:04, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
*Keyboard Strong Bad - watched, and admited created by Strong Bad in Decemberween in July.

So in conclusion, the whole thing doesn't make much sense, and we shouldn't read into it too much. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 18:49, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

What? Are you talking about? I mean...what are you talking about? OTSB should definitely be there. The interdimensional portal was invented in the exact same was as Homestar's time machine, which means that the portal would no doubt function as a time machine as well to some extent. [[User:VolatileChemical|VolatileChemical]] 00:05, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Umm, when talking about alternate universes in Homestar Runner, you just can't leave out Old-Timey. It's just...wrong. Even if he "shouldn't be there because he was in the past and not a new dimension", Old-Timey Strong Bad just HAD to be in an email talking about alternate universes. It would make less sense for him NOT to be used. Get what I'm saying?--[[User:That crazy DumDe!|DumDe]] 19:24, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

: I don't think there's any rhyme or reason behind the Strong Bads they chose. I think they just picked the variations they found most interesting or liked most. BTW, while I can kinda see an argument against Cardgage and Old-Timey, I don't see why Keyboard Strong Bad would be an exception any more than, say, Stinkoman or Sterrance, people that FCUSA's Strong Bad also blatently invented. --[Jay, not logged in] 19:46, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Is it worth mentioning that Bill Cosby also used this phrase on an episode of The Cosby Show? Most people would be more likely to have heard it on the show than on Himself.
:Actually, I thought it was a catchphrase of one of the Fat Albert characters, wasn't it? Which I ''think'' would make it older than Himself. (There's an unusual concept...) But what I'm more concerned about is the inconsistency between the phrase in the Transcript and the phrase in the Fun Fact. I'm not in a position to do any careful listening right now.

It is a fairly common expression these days, but I'm reasonably sure it started with Mushmouth even if most people don't realize it.

==Sequicentennial==

The word "sequicentennial" means 150 years. The "ennial" is related to the word "annual". Because sequicenten-email is a play on words, it works in this case. However, if he were to have called it his sequcentennial email, it would be incorrect, as he would have had to have started in 1856 and answered one annually in order to celebrate his sequicentennial. Perhaps "1936" could also have been "1856".
:They've usually referred to their milestones as years though – a 50th birthday candle in [[50 emails]] and in [[flashback]] Homestar says "Happy 100th birthday"... Hmm, running gag perhaps? {{User:Phlip/sig}} 02:20, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

:::No no no. That's not right at all. Strong Bad replaced the "ial" with "email," not the "ennial". I think that grammatically he should have just made it "sesquicentemail," which would actually make "150th email". I think that saying "sesquicentenn-email" makes it "150-year email," which would be wrong. I can't believe no one saw this talk post error in two years.

== Recorded Backwards? ==
Usually, to get the effect of the Coach Z Easter egg, the actors will record the lines, reverse them, imitate the reversal and reverse it back – so the phonemes are in the correct order, but the sounds fade in at the start instead of fading out at the end. However I'm not convinced they've done this in this email. 
{{Audio|Backwards Forwards.ogg|Listen to the clip, forwards and backwards}} 
I'm pretty sure they've just faked it – the reversed clip clearly sounds to me like it has more of a backwards sound to it, with the fading in at the beginning and such. What do you people think? {{User:Phlip/sig}} 02:33, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

:As I recall, The Simpsons also faked the effect for the second "Who Shot Mr. Burns?" episode. "Chief Wiggum. Don't eat eat the clues!"

== Aäa! ==

The one problem with using the ä is that a search for "doppelganger" will not turn up this version. Also, searching for "doppelgänger" (intentionally using the character) finds only the character usage, not the entity. The search here is incapable of allowing a, ä, and &auml; to all be found equally. The same is certainly true with other characters. Perhaps there's a fix? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 04:19, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
:An excellent point. Er, two points. Unless the admins can tell us there's some option to make the Search account for this, the fix is to settle for ''doppelganger'' with no umlauts, which is an acceptable English spelling in American Heritage and Webster's, and to do the same with other words when possible. Of course, there are some accented characters that should be kept, such as the distinction between [[Señor]] Havin' A Little Trouble and [[Senor Cardgage]], or entries on the [[Foreign Words]] page. But in general, we should probably just gloss over non-English characters as long as it doesn't make us look stupid.

== She Hulks She-Hulks by the Sea Shore ==

This is gonna sound super nerdy, but I think it's clear that when Strong Bad disparages the "geniuses behind She-Hulk," he's not talking about comic legends Stan Lee or John Buscema, her original creators. The more hit-or-miss John Byrne was the, uh, genius behind "The Sensational She-Hulk," the series that brought in all of the trademark fourth wall breaks and panel-walks. (For instance, sometimes, She-Hulk would face the viewpoint and shout, "Byrne!") The previous She-Hulk series, "Savage She-Hulk," and the modern She-Hulk series, simply "She-Hulk," eschew such tomfoolery.

:Doesn't look like a wince too much to me. And he's not off-key, nor all that out of tune. In fact, I reverted a comment in the transcript itself saying Stinkoman was singing out of tune. He's really no farther off pitch than Strong Bad ever is.
:Perhaps what people are thinking is this - the notes Stinkoman sings are:
<pre>
C D E F D A
I hope it's from a girl
</pre>

:And that last A is over a dominanttype harmony. Now, that's actually pretty common in this anthem-style rock, but I can see how the listener would expect a nice clean G there.

I removed a bunch of fun facts for various reasons:

*Strong Bad mentioned real fruit smoothies earlier in [[mascot]].

So what? It's not like that's really at all relevant.

*The word "VOIP" is a reference to the [[Visor Robot]]'s sound effect from [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 1]].

...among other places. And it's a standard cartoony sound effect.

*"Super Group" is a reference to [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 8]].

Likely coincidence. Not particularly noteworthy.

*"Number 1 jam" is a phrase previously used in [[time capsule]].

And it's been used more times since then.

*Old-Timey Strong Bad previously used the word "Doppelgänger" to refer to Strong Bad in [[flashback]].

Are we going to mention every time someone repeats something from the past?

*Stinkoman's lyric "I hope it's from a girrrrrrrl!" is probably a reference to Strong Bad's desire for female emailers, as mentioned in the [[Strong Bad Email Intros|email rap]] of [[dragon]].

Somebody read through this transcript. You'll find it's really awkward to get through because of the {comments} everywhere. Honestly, nobody cares whether or not Old-Timey Strong Bad turned left or right. It doesn't need to be pixel-perfect. I'd prefer it read well. [[User:86.136.82.105|86.136.82.105]] 12:52, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
:It reads fine. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 13:20, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, here's a question. There's a portion of the transcript that waffles between

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{leaning backwards}'' Ohbee Kaybee! ''{jumps off the stool and towards the swirl}'' Jump!

and

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{leaning backwards}'' Ohbee Kaybee!

''{He jumps off the stool and towards the swirl.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Jump!

I understood the rule to be that if it's only a few words, leave the action inline, but if it's a lot, split it. This seems to be a split situation, but is it? And what really IS the rule?? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 00:15, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

:I think this case should be a single line because Strong Bad says "Jump!" almost immediately after "Ohbee Kaybee!" His jumping off the stool happens at almost exactly the same time - just a little after, but close enough that we might even be able to get away with:

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{leaning backwards}'' Ohbee Kaybee! Jump!

''{Strong Bad jumps off the stool and towards the swirl. Then something happens. You know the rest.}''

::To quote the standards:
<blockquote>If a character does something while speaking a line of dialogue, or if more description is needed for their manner of speaking or inflection (e.g. if they're singing or whispering) the action (if it is not too long to describe in a few words) can be enclosed in curly braces — { } — and made italic, like this: {goes to the refrigerator}. Note that the curly braces themselves are also italic. Short actions like these do not need to be proper sentences.</blockquote>
::So if you're going to stick actions within dialogue, it needs to be...
* A few words long.
* Not a complete sentence.
* Relating to the speaking character.
::In this case, I think the action is a little too long for my tastes. :S I'm fine with both the 'Jump'-being-a-single-line version and KieferSkunk's solution. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 02:41, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
:::Although I've zealously hunted down situations that ''need'' bumping onto new lines, I also agree with anonny's point that we should avoid breaking up the flow as much ''as possible''. I'd like the rule of thumb "If you have to use a full sentence to describe the action, it should get a new line.

I've removed

from ==Goofs==, because technically it is a Flash artifact – if you zoom in, you'll see that the text is in fact normal. The result has something to do with Flash's [[Wikipedia:Anti-aliasing|anti-aliasing]] engine... I'm not sure exactly what the cause is, probably something to do with the [[Wikipedia:Moiré effect|Moiré effect]], but I'm not sure. Anyways, I'm in two minds about this... on one hand it's clearly a Flash artifact, but on the other it's a noticable glitch when you watch the email normally (no viewing the Flash file, no seek bars, nothing)...

== Big Nose? No Nose? ==

Stinkoman called Strong Bad "Big Nose" after a practice test in the Strong Bad Zone. What does Stinkoman mean by "Big Nose"? Does Strong Bad have a nose? If so, what is it? Is it his jewel? Is it his silver plate? [[User:24.151.40.232|24.151.40.232]]

[[User:24.151.40.232|24.151.40.232]]

== Outsiders reference you voted down ==

I'm sorry, guys, but in the context Strong Bad used the word "tuff" in, that was a reference to ''The Outsiders.'' I don't care if 25 people voted against it. I'm gonna use the same logic that all you people who tried to use against me in Change of Pace...just because you don't want something to be a reference doesn't mean it is.

:But there is overwhelming evidence against you. Think about that, please. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 05:43, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
::Well, first off, the reference doesn't make much sense. If he meant "tuff" as in "sharp", why would he come up with "Bulldozer"... last I checked, they aren't very pointy. Secondly, unless "kool" is also used in ''The Outsiders'', it's a bit more of a stretch – why would he intentionally mispell "cool" with no reference to anything, and then intentionally mispell "tough" with a reference to something else? Besides, do a search for "[[Google:tuff|tuff]]" on Google, you'll find [http://www.tuffshed.com/ many] [http://www.tufffemme.com/ examples] [http://www.tuffstuff.net/ of] [http://www.tuffcountry.com/ the] [http://www.tuffboat.com/ word] being used to mean "tough" (btw these examples were all on the first page, and ''all in a row''). {{User:Phlip/sig}} 06:08, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

For now I'll take the opportunity to mention that for an ambidextrous person to choose a left-handed guitar would be pretty weird. They're something of an oddity; even many southpaws opt to learn right-handed technique just because it's more common. So for someone we know can write with his right hand to be seen at one time with a [[Sketchbook#SK-2006-03-02|right-handed guitar]], then suddenly with a left-handed guitar, is difficult to reconcile.

I was just watching this e-mail again, and I noticed in the "vaudeville" scene that while the audience as a whole is a fairly shapeless mass, one distinctive shape rises up from it on the lower left.

Another of those little things where something in a cartoon reminds me of something, but it wouldn't be a good Fun Fact: On my most recent viewing, the way Homestar clears his throat and resumes talking normally after his backward-talking reminded me of the moment in ''The Princess Bride'' where the albino talks in a stereotypical scary hiss for the beginning of the line (in this subject heading), then clears his throat and continues in an anticlimactic normal voice. —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 22:02, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

There's one flaw in that fact: Look in the background while Strong Bad is talking to Strong Sad, or pretty much any time it's zoomed out.

== Puppet Soup ==

When I saw the scene of Strong Bad mirroring the motions of his Puppet Stuff counterpart, I immediately was reminded of the classic mirror scene from the Marx Brothers' movie Duck Soup. In said scene, Chico and Harpo noisily shatter a pane of mirrored glass during an espionage mission, and must stand in the empty space and silently mimic Groucho's motions when he comes to investigate. Am I alone in thinking that might be a reference? - 23:23, 29 March 2007
:Two similar characters moving in unison doesn't necessarily make for a reference to anything, even though they're "mirror images" of each other. In the scene you're talking about (as well as a similar happening between Harpo and Lucielle Ball on a classic 1955 episode of I Love Lucy), specifically involved creating an illusion of a mirror where there was none, and at least one character being (temporarily) fooled into thinking that a mirror was there. I really don't think that the puppet segment bears any significant similarity to the Duck Soup scene. - [[User:Uglinessman|Ugliness Man]] 05:29, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

== 2nd or 3rd contest ==

When Strong Bad mentioned that quote could he have been refering to "The Strongest Man in the World Contest" and "A Jumping Jack Contest"? -guest
:He could have, but I recall that addition being reverted in the past since the connection isn't very strong. Strong Bad may have heard of even more stupid contests. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 21:22, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

== Eva Cassidy reference? ==

Upon watching back the intro for this email, when Strong Bad sings a sentimental song to Strong Sad playing the acoustic guitar, I'm almost sure that the pair were dealing with it in the style of the late Eva Cassidy. The "flipping rainbows" line tends to refer to her work covering "Over the Rainbow", and the general rhythmic pattern of the jingle (especially in the second half) made me think of the rhythms of the melody for her interpretation of "Fields of Gold".

I don't know if this is me or not, but I thought it was worth bringing up. [[User:Rexy|Rexy]] 20:43, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

== Coach Z's Pants ==

in the easter egg with the eyeball pear, [[Coach Z]] says that he's not going to tell [[Homestar]] what he did in his [[pants]]. Is this a refernce to the fact that he doesn't wear pants?--[[User:Onestop|ONESTOP]][[Image:bowler derby.PNG|20px]] 22:22, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
:Coach Z wears pants - he shoved Strong Bad as a $100 bill into his waistbnd. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 22:26, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
::If you're talking about the email [[shapeshifter]], I think that's only gonna happen once and never again. I could be wrong though. Also look at the page for [[Coach Z]] and find the picture of his butt. Either he weras really tight pants or he's naked. (Ewww!!!!)--[[User:Onestop|ONESTOP]][[Image:bowler derby.PNG|20px]] 22:37, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
:::Or his butt is green. At any rate, there's too much confusion over the issue of Coach Z's pants, clearly, to have anything to his presence or lack of pants. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 22:38, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
::::He's also [[secret recipes|pukes his pants]]. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 22:40, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

== Real Fruit ==

Is it worth mentioning in the triva section, or as an addendum to the note in the Inside References section, that avocods are a real fruit, dispite the popular misconception that avocados are a vegetable? [[User:TrueTsumetai|TrueTsumetai]] 03:19, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
:Because avocados aren't actually referred to as vegetables in the toon, I'd say no. {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 03:38, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
::The point being: despite the peculiarity of the ingredients, it is a real fruit smoothie, a fact which most people wouldn't realize. {{User:TrueTsumetai/sig}} 06:06, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
:::But no one's making that joke here... {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 18:28, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

=="Let the little childrens go home"==

I recently edited Senor Cardgage's line in the song "Let the little childrens go" to "Let the little childrens go home", which is what I thought it was. It was quickly reverted. I've re-listened to the line several times since then, and he clearly says "Let the little childrens go home". I would edit it back in, but I don't want an edit war. So, what're your opinions? --[[User:BubbleRevolution|BubbleRevolution]]
:I don't hear "home." I just hear "go." there's no other syllable besides "go" in that sentence. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 19:25, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
::It's possible he's saying "Go-oh" in two syllables, but I definitely hear a second syllable.
:::I kind of hear "Grow" actually... {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 19:43, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
::::He might be singing "gome" or, to rhyme with "splode", "goad" (consider the singer), but there's pretty clearly only the one syllable. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 20:07, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
:::::I've always distinctly heard "Let the little childrens know." {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 23:49, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

That Guy Over There: /* Remarks */ Speculation!

{{hrenav|7|2000|24}}

[[Image:EthicalAdvancementOfMelonade.png|thumb|"I am contractually unable to drink, talk about, or bathe in any other liquid!"]]

In a classic Hremail, Homestar shares the goodness of melonade, then explains to Strong Bad what the internet is all about.

'''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.}''

''{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 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 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.

===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!").

**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 Fools 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.
*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]].

==Color Chameleon==

==Bubs Hums==
I think that Bubs is actually humming the villain's theme from Inspector Gadget. That would bookend with Homestar humming the main theme from the show.

To me, Bubs' "drum" sound as he's marching to his stand strongly resembles the actual drum beat played in [[isp]] when Strong Bad is marching to his hand. The style between the scenes is also pretty similar - a silhouetted character marching to Bubs' stand from the left on a solidly shaded background. Can someone else corroborate my story?

== From Usa, Homemadé ==

:::: +1 to That Guy Over There's comment, a quick Google search reveals:
::::* Donut: 8.72 million hits (approximately)
::::* Doughnut: 4.26 million hits (approximately)
:::: These numbers support the fact that "donut" is far more common, so I'd say that since the toon title contains "donut" we should spell it as such, except for taking note of "dognut" being misspelled. [[User:LobStoR|LobStoR]] 05:00, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::Note that Bubs' box spells it doughnuts, though, so the "donut" spelling isn't used exclusively in the toon, either. -[[Special:Contributions/128.103.10.135|128.103.10.135]] 05:03, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
::::::Google is not, however, the arbiter of correctness and standardisation. I support using "doughnut" in all instances, aside from where it is distinctly written as "donut" (similarly to how we already do it for "whoa"/"woah" and "all right"/"alright"). See also this discussion: [[HRWiki talk:Manual of Style#Donut vs. Doughnut]]. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 05:04, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

:::::::: Just provided the Google hits as a general metric of ''common''-ness... but woah, now that I've heard the logic over in the MoS thread, I'm alright with "doughnut" - as it retains the word "dough" that they are made of, which makes more sense than the brand-name-ish implications behind the spelling "donut" [[User:LobStoR|LobStoR]] 05:32, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::I was supportive of using "donut" to agree with the toon title until I noticed that the page title and url use "doughnut". It appears TBC aren't as big on consistency as we are. Since they seem to use them interchangeably, I suggest we use the more standard "doughnut". {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:15, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::All right, so I did not see that old discussion, and I'm now noticing that even TBC can't keep it straight within this toon (heck, just look at the page's title.) Hence, I retract the question. (Now if only people would stop trying to connect Bubs' humming to some old NES game that the song he sings ''far far'' predates...) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 10:07, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

== Taco Bell NASA ==

When KOT said the thing about NASA calculating his calorie intake, I immediately thought of that one Simpsons episode (the 22 stories from Springfield or something like that) were NASA had to calculate Barney's bar tab. Maybe this should be mentioned? Personally, I don't think it should be, but better to be safe and start a discussion than sorry.

:::: These numbers support the fact that "donut" is far more common, so I'd say that since the toon title contains "donut" we should spell it as such, except for taking note of "dognut" being misspelled. [[User:LobStoR|LobStoR]] 05:00, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::Note that Bubs' box spells it doughnuts, though, so the "donut" spelling isn't used exclusively in the toon, either. -[[Special:Contributions/128.103.10.135|128.103.10.135]] 05:03, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
::::::Google is not, however, the arbiter of correctness and standardisation. I support using "doughnut" in all instances, aside from where it is distinctly written as "donut" (similarly to how we already do it for "whoa"/"woah" and "all right"/"alright"). See also this discussion: [[HRWiki talk:Manual of Style#Donut vs. Doughnut]]. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 05:04, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Yeah, per the MoS link and discussion that Dorian provided, combined with the box of Bubs's that I mentioned a second ago, I support doughnut. -[[Special:Contributions/128.103.10.135|128.103.10.135]] 05:08, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::::: Just provided the Google hits as a general metric of ''common''-ness... but woah, now that I've heard the logic over in the MoS thread, I'm alright with "doughnut" - as it retains the word "dough" that they are made of, which makes more sense than the brand-name-ish implications behind the spelling "donut" [[User:LobStoR|LobStoR]] 05:32, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::I was supportive of using "donut" to agree with the toon title until I noticed that the page title and url use "doughnut". It appears TBC aren't as big on consistency as we are. Since they seem to use them interchangeably, I suggest we use the more standard "doughnut". {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:15, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::All right, so I did not see that old discussion, and I'm now noticing that even TBC can't keep it straight within this toon (heck, just look at the page's title.) Hence, I retract the question. (Now if only people would stop trying to connect Bubs' humming to some old NES game that the song he sings ''far far'' predates...) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 10:07, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

I speak with my friends almost exclusively in Homestar Runner references. This sometimes confuses people, which I find very amusing.

Once while in Florida in the Orange County Convention Center, a complete stranger, having no prior knowledge of my interest in Homestar Runner, walked up to me and quoted the intro to Teen Girl Squad. I also found this very amusing.

I have all kinds of jokes in my Spanish class. One of them last year was that I would always try to work the question "¿Dónde está un huevo?" into any and every oral assignment. For you non-Spanish speakers, that translates into "[[Where's an Egg?|Where is an egg?]]"

I like to write Homestar Runner quotes on the chalkboard in my sophomore history teacher's classroom. Only a select few cool people appreciate them. I'm... I'm one of the cool people. Really.

For my final project in physics last school year, I was assigned to build a roller coaster with a group. It was a virtual model and it was called, you guessed it, The Bowels of Trogdor. I even played the Trogdor theme song in the PowerPoint.

The Lappy is way overdue for some sorta catastrophe. Seriously, folks. Strong Bad has checked over eighty emails on that thing.

Homestar's mention of [[unnatural|chocolate cake]] on that picnic table over there is an obvious reference to Homsar in [[strong badathlon]]. I don't care what the [[HRWiki:STUFF/Archive/unnatural|STUFF results]] tell you; that's the dang truth!

I would pay big money to see a Homestar Runner movie. I'd probably pay Dish Network for an extra channel if it had a Homestar Runner TV show on it, too.

Donut Unto Others

That Guy Over There — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 00:48:33 GMT

That Guy Over There: /* Remarks */ Who is this Heath Inspector of which you speak?

{{toonnav|Shorts|doughnutstand|4 Gregs|Strong Bad Sings}}
[[Image:Doughnut.png|thumb|"Do you dough-not want one?"]]
Homestar Runner opens his own donut stand, much to the chagrin of Bubs.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' {{film|Homestar Runner}}, {{film|Marzipan}}, {{film|Bubs}}, {{film|The King of Town}}, {{film|Strong Bad}}

'''Places:''' [[Marzipan's House]], [[Bubs' Concession Stand]]

'''Date:''' Monday, April 6, 2009

'''Running Time:''' 3:56

'''Page Title:''' Hey There, Doughnut Rush!

==Transcript==
''{Homestar is seen cutting out dough rings in Marzipan's Kitchen. Marzipan enters}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh, that's sweet! Are you making me homemade donuts for the 16th anniversary of our 17th breakup?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Um, no. No way. Um, no way. You know how I've always dreamed of being my own boss at the donut factory!

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{looking annoyed}'' No, since when?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Why, just last night! ''{Homestar appears in his dream next to a high-jumping pit wearing a shirt with the Mexican flag on it and only one leg}'' I dreamt that I was a French long-jump champion with eight wooden legs!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Aaand that made you want to start a donut shop?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yes sir! Like I said, it's a boyhood dream of mine. Could you pass me that recipe?

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{Picks up a small note from the table}'' There's just this square of TP that says "dog-nut" on it.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, yeah. That's it. My secret recipe.

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{Sighs}'' I'm gonna go talk to anyone else but you.

''{cut to The Field. Homestar is in a large [[cardboard box]] marked "Do-Nots". Fat can be seen bubbling in the back.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I honestly wonder how many million donuts I'll sell on my first day. Three? Four? Eight? I've gotta be ready for the 3:09 p.m. donut rush, you know? Ooh, here it comes.

''{Bubs, with a red face and a '''VERY''' furious expression, enters from the right. As he speaks, cartoon smoke clouds emit from his head.}''

'''BUBS:''' ''{with forced restraint}'' Well, hello, Hoomestar.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey there, donut rush. What can I get for you?

'''BUBS:''' It's really great to very see you, Homestar.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Uhhm... it's good to see you, too, I guess.

'''BUBS:''' I'm delighted you've decided to set up shop about ten feet away from me!

''{cut to a shot revealing Homestar's stand being close to Bubs'}'' ''{cut back to Homestar and Bubs}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, we could be a conglomerate, like KFC-Taco-Bell-Raddison-Texas-Instruments-NASA!

'''BUBS:''' Yes. That is a really outstanding ideeeaaaa!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Um, Bubs? Are we in a fight?

''{as Bubs speaks, his face slowly returns to its normal blue color}''

'''BUBS:''' ''{slightly calmer}'' What do you think, man?! You opened up a competing donut place right across the street from me!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{examining the grass between the two stands}'' The street?

'''BUBS:''' Right across the way from me.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' But I thought you sold questionable medical coverage.

'''BUBS:''' That was two hours ago. ''{changes to his normal expression, now speaking normally}'' Now I'm in the donut bid-ness. How's that coverage working out for you, by the way?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Great so far!

'''BUBS:''' I gotta get ready for the big 3:09 p.m. donut rush. When next we meet, 'twill be on the donut field of battle!

'''BUBS:''' ''{singing/marching}'' Dubba dup dup dup dubba dup dup dup.

''{cut to a shot of a clock that strikes 3:09. Cut back to a shot of Bubs' Concession Stand and Homestar's Do-Not, when the The King Of Town poofs in with a puff of smoke.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oof! All right gentlemen, here's how this is gonna go down. I need fried dough so bad it hurts! According to the data I got back from Taco Bell-NASA, we're gonna need in the 3 to 8 million range to maintain my caloric intake. Now, commence marketing bombardment.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Mine's is homemade! ''{holds up a spatula with some donut batter and a few hairs on it}''

'''BUBS:''' Mine's is shipped from a 3rd world country named Homemáde, so I can legally print from "Homemade" on the prepackaged package. ''{holds up a package}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I've got grit, gumption, and an adorable speech impootaboot.

'''BUBS:''' My name's Bubs, I talk hard and fast.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Available in 57 different varieties!

'''BUBS:''' One flavor, over a hundred different names for it. ''{various names appear around Bubs}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{holds up a newspaper}'' Marzipan raves "Hey! Get outta my kitchen, you!"

'''BUBS:''' ''{cut to a shot of the box; as he says each descriptions, it appears onscreen}'' Fights cavities! Cleans Teeth! The American Dental Association does not approve the preceding statements.

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' All right, all right, all right. You both make excellent cases, but I've come to my decision.

'''BUBS:''' Health Inspector! Cheese it, everyone!

''{Bubs closes his stand}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Ooh! ''{he disappears}''

''{Strong Bad, in silhouette, is seen coming up and walks towards Homestar with a clipboard in his hand.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey potential customer, would you like several million donuts?

'''STRONG BAD:''' No, I don't want ''one''.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' But do you dough-''not'' want one? Hmmm?

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm the health inspector, here to hopefully shut you down. Now rub this swab under your grease trap and bring it back.

''{Homestar takes the swab and rubs it on the fat fryer.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yes sir, Inspector Heath! ''{Homestar starts humming}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And... a little bit of ''this''! ''{Strong Bad puts a note marked "F" on the side of Homestar's stand and pushes it over. Smoke begins to rise from it.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ah! My face!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{laughs and walks away}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' My delicious fried face! Bubs, is this covered by my questionable medical coverage... at least questionably so? Bubs?

''{cut to a long shot of both stands in silhouette. Bubs opens the back of his stand and is seen sneaking away.}''

'''BUBS:''' Dooot droot dooba doop doop doop...

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
*The newspaper reads:
{| style="border-collapse: collapse; border: 3px solid #999"
| style="border-right: 3px solid #999; font-size: 2em; text-align: center; line-height: 1em; padding: 5px; font-family:Times New Roman,serif" | The Imaginary Newspapes

Mexican high jumper Homestar Garcia Colon was unavalible for comment but French long jumper Chateau 'Octo' Etoile broke out the ol' soft shoe.
|}

===Remarks===
*In Marzipan's kitchen, the sink seen in [[Where's The Cheat?]] has disappeared.
* The note with Homestar's "recipe" is shown to have squiggly lines except in the closeup of it (in which it clearly says "dog-nut" and Homestar's signature).
*When Bubs warns that the health inspector is coming, he looks and points in a different direction than Strong Bad (as a health inspector) comes from.

===Inside References===
*Homestar claiming he was a French long-jump champion is another instance of [[French]]. The French name in the newspaper, "Chateau Etoile" means "Home Star".
*[[Trivia Time]] is shown in the kitchen.
*Strong Bad [[Strong Bad Smiling|smiles]] in this short.
*The King of Town appears from [[hammerspace]].
**Strong Bad also pulls the F slip out of [[hammerspace]].
*Homestar's dream uses the music from [[strong badathlon]].
*In the scene where Bubs and Homestar are marketing their donuts to the King of Town, the music playing is from [[No Hands On Deck]].
*In Homestar's newspaper, Marzipan is once again referred to as "The Marzipan" as she was in [[Date Nite]]. This is another example of [[Integral Article|integral articles]] before names.
*When the Health Inspector comes up, Bubs says, "Cheese it!", which is what Strong Bad says to Strong Mad and The Cheat when they steal Marzipan's radish in [[The Reddest Radish]].
*Homestar also used "Dough-''not''" in place of "not" in [[Weclome Back]].

===Real-World References===
* The toon's title is a pun on the [[Wikipedia:Ethic of reciprocity|Ethic of reciprocity]], commonly known as the "Golden Rule," which is often expressed as "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
* Homestar hums the theme to [[Wikipedia:Inspector Gadget|Inspector Gadget]].
* The flag that Homestar wears in his dream is the [[Wikipedia:Flag of Mexico|flag of Mexico]].
* The companies that Homestar lists as a conglomerate are real companies:
** [[Wikipedia:KFC|KFC]] and [[Wikipedia:Taco Bell|Taco Bell]] are restaurants owned by [[Wikipedia: Yum! Brands|Yum! Brands]].
** [[Wikipedia:Radisson Hotels|Radisson]] is a hotel chain owned by [[Wikipedia:Carlson Companies|Carlson Companies]].
** [[Wikipedia:Texas Instruments|Texas Instruments]] is a semiconductor and electronics maker.
**[[Wikipedia: NASA|NASA]] is the United States space agency, not part of a conglomerate.

==Transcript==
'''STRONG BAD:''' Bring to me a suitable email, that I may check it down.

<blockquote class="lappy email"><div>
subject: Strong Badia's Army</div>
Mr Strong Bad 
I have three sons that wish to join the Strongbadia army. 
Do you have any pamphlets, brochures, video information 
that could assist. 
Yours, 
Paul, Perth 
Western Australia
</blockquote>
''{He says "Mr" as "Mere" and says "Hey, I am no mere Strong Bad, okay?!" after reading "Mr Strong Bad". He also reads "Paul, Perth" as one name.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{clears screen, typing}'' Look Perthy Paul, I've been over this already: Strong Badia doesn't have/need''{pronounces have-slash-need}'' an army. When we need muscle, we farm it out to our favorite band of shady missionaries, er I mean mercenaries, MERCENARIES! In fact, if your sons are so bonzer to enlist, they can ''{doesn't type}'' just ''{typing}'' swing by their booth at our Vaguely Military Career Fair, which just happens to be starting right now!

''{Cut to a wide shot of The Cheat next to Strong Bad. Strong Bad turns around to face him.}''

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, it's not for three weeks. Okay.

''{Cut to a black screen reading "2 weeks later...". Cut to Strong Bad in his basement.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Introducing...

''{Cut to The Cheat on the couch, with a cane, a bowtie, and a top hat reading "Tito". He turns left and right and waves.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...Tito the Tophaticent! And his beautiful assistant,

''{Cut to a wide shot of the basement, revealing Strong Mad standing behind the couch with two basketballs in his singlet. He waves. Silhouettes of Strong Bad and Strong Sad are visible.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Strong Mad with two basketballs shoved down his singlet!

'''STRONG SAD:''' Yaaaay!! ''{claps}''

''{Cut to a black screen reading "1 week later...". Cut to Strong Bad sitting at a booth in the gymnasium, wearing an [[eyepatch]] and a taped-on mustache. On the booth is a muffler, a stack of brochures, and a pipe. Coach Z walks by.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Excuse me, Ganglo-Saxon. You look like the type of kid that gets his lunch handed to him daily. Well, if you'd like to be the lunch-handerer ''{raises his glove, revealing a robotic claw taped to it}'' for a change, then boy, do the On Point Kings have a brochure for you!

''{Strong Bad puts the brochure on the table. It has the On Point Kings logo on top of a camouflage-style background.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' It's a Roman trifold ''{opens brochure}'' printed on 65-pound cardstock.

''{The camera zooms in on the various features of the brochure.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' 14-point Helvetica, laid out using QuarkXpress! A ''pirated version'' of QuarkXpress!

''{Flips open to another side of the brochure, which shows photos of the On Point Kings in action.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' We specialize in black ops, brown ops, and the occasional beige op.

''{Cut to footage of Strong Badia, where a hopscotch grid has been drawn on the dirt. Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat are there, all wearing fake mustaches. "CLASSIFIED" has been stamped on the screen. The Cheat starts hopping along the squares.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Come on, The Cheat! Go for sixies! ''Sixies!''

''{Cut back to Strong Bad at the booth.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' How do you ever expect to get an ''{shows off his features as he says them}'' eye patch, mustache, or robotic arm like this— clank, clank— unless you join up with a shady band of missionaries? Oh, crap, I did it again! ''{camera moves away}'' Mercenaries, I meant mercenaries! ''{screen pans right and fades out}'' We do bad stuff!

''{Cut to The King of Town at his booth. He is asleep while he is fed Giblet Gravy through a mask and tube. There is a TV on his table, as well as a sign reading, "Out to lunch Watch video" and an arrow pointing to the TV. Two posters are on the wall. Cut to the video, which shows a silhouetted The Poopsmith slowly climbing up the King's castle.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{voiceover}'' The drive... the power... the skills... the motivation... the power again...

''{The Poopsmith has reached the top of the castle. He grabs his shovel.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{voiceover}'' The fortitude...

''{The Poopsmith holds the shovel by his side.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{voiceover}'' The strive...

''{The Poopsmith holds the shovel up to the dark, cloudy sky as lightning flashes.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{voiceover}'' The ideals...

''{Lightning strikes the shovel, which gives The Poopsmith dark gloves, a gas mask, a club, and a shield.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{voiceover}'' The list of attributes...

''{Zoom out on The Poopsmith, revealing a black and white poster with five Poopsmiths with the same gear. A King of Town logo is in the center and the words "The Municipality" are at the top.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Municipality. ''{words appear as the King says them}'' Honor. Valor. Buttor.

''{Cut to Homestar Runner's booth. Homestar is wearing an orange bowl on his head and is wielding an orange spoon. The table has the popcorn machine, Frank Bennedetto, behind a sign reading "Not free popcorn, memorial statue". There are two posters on the wall, one depicting Homestar wearing the same outfit, with the caption "Do You Has?", and another depicting the orange bowl and spoon, with the caption "Boond You Like?"}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Say, young man! Say, young man, young man, young man, young man, young man, young man, young man! ''{points at viewer}'' You look like you come from a long line of five bucks-havers. Well, the Homestarmy has a career for ''you'' ''{points}'' in the no-armed forces!

''{Cut to closeup of Homestar.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Say, you good at video games? I'm not good at video games. ''{chuckles}'' The last time I fired up one of my old Sega tapes, it made me a waffle. ''{zoom in}'' Say, you like pamphlets? ''{holds up a book of "Game Program Instructions" by [[Videlectrix]]}'' Here's a pamphlet! ''{tears book in half}'' Here's two pamphlets!

''{Cut to the original wide shot.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Say, you got a girlfriend? Well, what if your girlfriend was a ''{holds up spoon}'' wooden spoon and an ''{bowl flies off his head}'' orange plastic bowl? ''{lowers eyelids}'' That'd be really weird, man. What kind of screwed-up kid are you? ''{angry}'' We don't recruit your kind! ''{waves spoon}'' Get out of here!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad at the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' So that's fair, right Dinkum? You send your coolest son off to join the On Point Kings. He'll have to be jumped in. You send your fat son off to join The Municipality. He'll have to be ''{short pause}'' pooped in. And then you send your step-headed red-child off to certain doom in the Homestarmy. He's gonna wanna be jumped out. Well, I gotta go find the bicycle pump. Tito the Tophaticent's beautiful assistant's looking a little...lopsided.

''{Strong Bad gets up and leaves. [[The Paper]] comes down with an odd, sick-sounding noise; it is crumpled and torn. Strong Bad peeks in from the right side of the screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. That's a bad sign.

''{Strong Bad leaves again.}''

==Easter Eggs==
[[Image:Shady missionaries.png|thumb|Fairly Religious Overtones!]]
*Click on "Shady Missionaries" to see a [[Taranchula]] album of the same name.
* When Homestar says "The last time I fired up one of my old [[Sega tapes]], it made me a waffle", click anywhere on the screen to bring up a picture of a [[Wikipedia:Waffle iron|waffle iron]] with a [[Wikipedia:Sega Genesis|Genesis]]-like controller and cartridge attached to it.
*At the end, click on "Tito the Tophaticent's" to see a video clip:
:''{The Cheat, in his Firebert outfit, is standing in front of a sign that bears the Cheat Commandos logo and reads "Meet TV's Firebert!" After a long pause with cricket sounds, he takes out a fine tip red permanent marker and angrily replaces "Firebert" with "Trogdor." He smiles and sighs happily as a large crowd of people gathers around and mumbles to each other. The only discernible phrases are "Oh, Trogdor, man, it's Trogdor" and "He looks taller."}''

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*[[Wikipedia:Mercenary|Mercenaries]] are hired soldiers not currently a member of any national armed forces organization, while [[Wikipedia:Missionaries|missionaries]] preach religious teachings.
*Strong Bad uses stereotypical examples of [[Wikipedia:Australian English|Australian English]] in his reply, "bonzer" (meaning excellent) and "fair dinkum" (meaning true or genuine).
*[[Wikipedia:Black ops|Black ops]] are covert operations which involve activities of a legally or ethically questionable nature.
*Giblet gravy is [[Wikipedia:gravy|gravy]] with the [[Wikipedia:giblets|giblets]], or internal organs, of turkey or chicken. It is usually served with the type of poultry from which the giblets came.
*"Jumping in" is a typical gang initiation ritual where new members are attacked by several gang members at once. The new member must fight back to prove himself before being accepted.
*"Step-headed red-child" is a [[Wikipedia:Spoonerism|spoonerism]] of [http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=red-headed+stepchild "redheaded stepchild"], an expression used to refer to a social outcast.
*"Ganglo-Saxon" is a [[portmanteau]] of "gangly" and "[[Wikipedia:Anglo-Saxon|Anglo-Saxon]]".
*The brochure for the On Point Kings states that the version of QuarkXPress is registered to "B4KDØR H4XXØR" on the third inside page. This is a [[Leet]]-spelling of "Backdoor Hacker", a reference to [[Wikipedia:Hacker|computer hackers]] who use "[[Wikipedia:Backdoor|backdoors]]" to crack software copy-protection.
*Strong Bad's comment "You look like the type of kid that gets his lunch handed to him daily" could be explained as a [[portmanteau]]-like combination of "gets his [rear] handed to him" and "has his lunch money taken/stolen".

===Trivia===
[[Image:On Point Kings brochure.png|thumb|"Bro, sure!"]]
*The label on the [[Floppy Disk Container]] reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#dark seed|dark seed]]".
*This email contains another instance of [[Strong Mad smiling]].
*Apparently, The Cheat himself voices Firebert on the [[Cheat Commandos]] cartoon (which is no surprise, as Firebert appears to be the only Cheat Commando incapable of speech).
*When Strong Bad is explaining his brochure, an army style version of the Dangeresque theme is playing.
*The various parts of the brochure read:
{| style="width: 45em"
| rowspan="2" style="width: 15em; text-align: center"|ARE YOU ''ON'' POINT?
"Bro, sure!" All the ladies 
love a man that has this 
brochure in his back 
pocket.

This could be you!!!
| colspan="2" style="width: 30em; text-align: center" | {Black-and-white photo of Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat – all three have fake moustaches and their eyes are censored}

Made on a Quark Xpress Registered to B4KDØR H4XXØR
|}

*The [[Podstar Runner]] description of this email reads "Strong Bad takes us on a tour of his Vaguely Military Career Fair."

===Remarks===
*The [[font]] [[Wikipedia:Helvetica|Helvetica]] is not present anywhere on the On Point Kings' brochure. Part of it is actually set in Coolvetica, a knockoff version.
*The Cheat does not receive any visitors until he replaces "[[Firebert]]" with "[[Trogdor]]". It is strongly implied that his initial unpopularity is due to the name "Firebert", which was criticized in [[army]] and again in [[Shopping for Danger]].


===Goofs===
[[Image:Backwardscoachz.PNG|thumb|Backwards Coach Z emblem]]
*Coach Z's emblem is backwards.
*As Strong Bad leaves the screen the first time at the end, part of his reflection appears on the wall behind the Lappy, and the right edge of the table disappears.
*As Strong Bad enters the screen once The Paper comes down, his head appears behind the Paper.

===Fixed Goofs===
*When Strong Bad showed his robotic arm, his glove did not appear. This was fixed later in the day.

===Inside References===
*This email makes several references to [[army]]. These include:
**Strong Bad's claim that he already said Strong Badia has/needs no army.
**The memorial to [[Frank Bennedetto]], the only casualty of [[The Battle of Strong Badia]].
**A poster at Homestar's booth is captioned with "Do you has?" In [[army]], Homestar asks Strong Bad, "Do you has what it takes to join the [[Homestarmy]]?" This poster is also available as a [[Downloads|downloadable]] [[wallpaper]].
**In [[army]], Homestar tells his troops to give five bucks to the Homestarmy. Here, he states, "You look like you come from a long line of five-bucks-havers."
**The [[Cheat Commandos]] first originated in [[army]] by having [[The Cheat]] dress as [[Firebert]]. In the Easter egg, his Firebert costume is seen again.
*The Cheat's [[Tito]] costume is from [[part-time job]].
*The music during the Tito scene is from [[Strongest Man in the World]].
*[[The Municipality]] was previously mentioned in [[disconnected]].
*The Paper's poor condition is a reference to [[montage]], where it's stated that "The Paper stuck around until email #173, at which time Strong Bad upgraded to an inkjet printer" (this email is #172).
**The sound it makes is an extended version of the one from [[Sick Day]].
* The [[On Point Kings]] were first referenced in [[origins]].
*[[The smashed muffler]] and a pipe are sitting on Strong Bad's recruiting stand.
* In his "Homestarmy" monologue, Homestar mentions [[Sega tapes]].
*The time displayed on the scoreboard is [[Pi|3:14]].
*Homestar's line about pursuing a career in the "no-armed forces" references Homestar's [[Lack of Visible Arms|lack of visible arms]].
*Strong Bad's costume, from when he is running the On Point Kings booth, features a [[mustache]].
*The sound The Cheat makes in the beginning of the Firebert Easter Egg is similar to the one he made in [[mile]] after Strong Bad left.
*The skeleton costume visible on the hands of the "shady missionary" on the cover of Taranchula's album was also worn by the guitarist in their [[Moving Very Slowly (video)|Moving Very Slowly music video]].
*There is an appearance of [[Feeding Through a Tube]].
*The waffle iron in the Sega tape Easter Egg resembles the one on [[Main Page 5]].
*The pamphlet has two examples of [[deliberately poor English]]: "forefathers" and "identities" are respectively written as "fourfathers" and "identies".

===Real-World References===
*The Municipality video closely resembles a commercial for the [[Wikipedia:United States Marine Corps|US Marines.]]
**Similarly, the Poopsmith's shield has "Pooper Fi" written on it, a parody of the US Marines motto "[[Wikipedia:Semper fidelis#The United States Marine Corps|Semper Fi]]".
*[[Wikipedia:Joe Piscopo|Joe Piscopo]] is an American comedian known for his work on ''[[Wikipedia:Saturday Night Live|Saturday Night Live]]''.
*[[Wikipedia:QuarkXPress|QuarkXPress]] is a page layout application for Mac and Windows.
*The pamphlet for the Homestarmy features the cover art for the [[Atari 2600]] version of ''[[Wikipedia:Space Invaders|Space Invaders]]''.
*Strong Bad's mercenary costume closely resemblances that of [[Wikipedia:Major Bludd|Major Bludd]], a mercenary from the [[Wikipedia:G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero (TV series)|G.I. Joe]] cartoon series.

===Fast Forward===
*In the next e-mail, titled "[[the paper]]", The Paper finally breaks down and is replaced by [[New Paper]].
*The music during Strong Bad's brochure demo is used again as background music for [[Dangeresque: Puppet Squad]]

Talk:more armies

That Guy Over There — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 04:17:48 GMT

That Guy Over There: /* Spelling mistakes really goofs? */ 'Kay then.

==Continuation of "army"?==
Could this email be considered a continuation of the email [[army]] due to how the subject nature is so similar to the said email and how this email is called "more armies"? -- [[User:Bad Graphics Ghost|The BGG]]
:See [[Talk:more_armies#Email_sequel|here]]. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 20:30, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

== B4KD0R H4XX0R==

Anyone else catch the 1337/L337/LeeT in the brochure that read "Backdoor Hacker?"

== Benedetto!==
Just making sure. Frank Bennedetto was not in this email, but rather a memorial to him. Right? -
[[User:Drsandsattwo|Drsandsattwo]] 20:18, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Uhm... no. Frank was revealed to be alive in Labor Dabor (and sign your name please.) -[[User:Everybody!|Everybody!]] 21:49, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Sorry. What I realize Bennedetto is as alive as a psuedocharacter can be, but that is a memorial rather than the real thing. correct? -
[[user:Drsandsattwo|Drsandsattwo]] 23:38, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

I'd say that the memorial of Bennedetto counts as a character appearance as much as stuffed Strong Bad suplexing a cougar does. {{User:Jeadly/sig}} 16:39, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

My vote is that Bennedetto isn't so much a character as it is just an average everyday popcorn maker that Homestar, in all his geniusness, thinks is a character named Bennedetto. He's probably the only one who sees the memorial as an actuall memorial. To the rest of the world, the real question is: is it the same popcorn maker? Who can really say?--[[User:69.29.135.247|69.29.135.247]] 18:31, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

==Not-yet opened STUFF==

The third kid facing certain doom in the Homestarmy refers to military school.

- {{User:Gtxm78/sig}} 21:56, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

I think that, if anything, certain doom refers to the fact that Homestar is a ridiculously inept "commander" and will lead the Homestarmy to certain doom. - [[User:Chupaqueso|Chupaqueso]] 22:01, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

He's more of a "Col-o-nel". -WeatherPerson

==Jumped in?==
What's that mean? Strong Bad said you can send your kid off to join the On Point Kings, but he'll have to be jumped in. Funny, usually by the time I come here, the e-mail page is already done. It's odd to see it so new :). [[User:Kvn8907|Kvn8907]] 22:11, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

: It's the standard gang initiation... urban legends about flashing headlights and assaulting random people in front of Wal-Mart notwithstanding, most gangs simply beat the $*#! out of prospective members to make sure they're tough enough. That's called being "jumped in". [[User:68.13.21.225|68.13.21.225]] 23:22, 21 May 2007 (UTC) (a no-account good for nothing so and so)

Well, I remember in 5th grade we learned about gangs. (A police officer came as a special guest.) What gangs do, is they try and see how tough you are by beating the crap out of you. Then, you are in the gang, and there is bad stuff (I don't know the specifics, because I've never been in one, thankfully), like weapons and drugs. Then if you want to get out, they have to "jump you out." That means you get beaten up, but a lot harder, and some people have died trying to escape/get out of gangs. [[User:Tgcdse|Tgcdse]]

==Firebert to Trogdor==
It's possible that The Cheat didn't change Firebert to Trogdor just because his name was awful. I think it's more to do with the popularity of Trogdor and the amount of fan contributions it has spawned.
:Same here. {{User:4kai2lyn6/sig}} 00:10, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Is there some kind of arbitrary rule that you don't link the same page twice in a paragraph or something?

== The Cheat and Firebert ==

Is it fair to say that The Cheat voices Firebert in the Cheat Commando cartoons just as Crack Stuntman voices Gunhaver? Evidence to support this:
*The Cheat Commando cartoons are produced by members of the main Homestar Runner universe (hence Stuntman's message on Marzipan's answering machine). Theoretically, the other voice actors behind the CC characters exist alongside Homestar Runner, Strong Bad, etc.
*This email seems to indicate that The Cheat is making an appearance as the actor who plays Firebert.
*Firebert has never spoken English in any of the cartoons, but he made The Cheat noises in [[Shopping for Danger]].
*The Cheat also went by the name of Firebert in [[army]].
I think this makes sense, and I think it's intended by TBC, rather than simply speculation. Anyone agree or disagree? {{User:Trey56/sig}} 06:46, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
:Agree on all counts. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 02:04, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
*Isn't the real question being asked here whether Crack Stuntman is a product of Strong Bad's imagination that materializes on Marzipan's answering machine? What is REAL in the homestarrunner universe is an impossible question, although one that I think would be interesting to explore. For example, is Videlectrix a real video game company in the homestarrunner universe, or a product of Strong Bad's imagination? How could games that he conjures up in an email appear instantaneously as "real" video game cartridges, available in Free Country USA. Do we assume that Strong Bad is actually on staff at (or being plagiarized by) Videlectrix, or does Strong Bad actually have the most powerful "telekenisis" of all the characters, creating a corporation with real employees and products with the power of his mind? Is it possible that there is a sub-universe within the homestarrunner universe that is only as real to the characters as homestarrunner.com is to us? [[User:71.104.226.62|71.104.226.62]]
:What makes you think crack stuntman is a product of strong bad imagination? the cheat commandoes tv show is a real show in the HR universe, so clearly gunhaver needs a voice actor, hence a guy named crack. meanwhile, there are spin-offs, certainly, many of which are unexplained, like senor cartgage suddenly appearing, but these spin-offs should not be taken are a direct result of strong bad talking about them. -[[User:Neumannz|Zatchman]] 03:16, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
::Yeah, I guess you're right in this case, I thought that the cheat commandos were one of those things he kinda randomly starts talking about and then appears, but that's just firebert, and the cheat kinda invented him. [[User:71.104.226.62|71.104.226.62]]
:Well I agree. {{User:Supuhstar/sig}}
::No, there is no evidence that The Cheat does any voice-acting work on any cartoon TV programs in the Homestar Runner universe. If he did, wouldn't Strong Bad know about it and tell everyone? Using Occam's Razor, I believe Firebert may be The Cheat's favourite Cheat Commando character and he likes to dress up as him and get others to call him "Firebert". It's called "getting into character" and everyone does this at least once a year. Also, at a lot of these conventions, you get people paid to dress up as Lara Croft or Mickey Mouse or other fictional characters so that you're supposed to "meet" them. They aren't the REAL deal, of course, but you get a photograph at the end. By the way, Annony, you DO know that Homestar Runner is a product of the imaginations of [[The Brothers Chaps]] and, being a cartoon under their control, anything and anyone can just materialize and become regular characters and items in the Homestar Runner universe, right? You seem to be thinking too much over a cartoon about dumb animal characters. ;) {{User:The Chort/sig}} 14:20, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

== Jumped in/Jumped out Gang Reference ==

In school, we learned about gangs from a police officer, and these are confirmed facts: For anyone who doesn't know, gangs "jump in" potential members. When someone chooses to join the gang (a bad choice btw, if you've never learned that), the gang beats the crap out of you to test your toughness. Then, in the gang, they have bad stuff like weopons and drugs, so if you want to get out, they "jump you out." This is supposed to be even worse, where they give you no mercy, and beat the crap and everything out of you (some people have died trying to get away from a gang they were in).
Anyways, does anyone think that we should add it as a real world reference to gangs (when sb mentions jumping in and out)?
[[User:Tgcdse|Tgcdse]]
:It's already mentioned in [[more armies#Explanations|Explanations]]. But I don't think it explains what "jumping out" is, so you might want to add that information to the fact that's already there. {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 16:00, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

65lb Cardstock is likely a real-world reference to Kraft paper, generally used for making tubes for various use in pyrotechnics, sold as 'kraft paper', made with the Kraft process.

== And they feed the king through a tube? ==

Would the scene of the KOT eating giblet gravy count as feeding him through a tube? [[User:Bad Bad Guy|Bad Bad Guy]] 22:11, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
:The reason I asked was because I thought if it did, we could write an article about [[Feeding Through A Tube]] because there were also references in [[No Hands on Deck!]] and [[looking old]]. [[User:Bad Bad Guy|Bad Bad Guy]] 23:04, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

== Are you good at video games? ==

I don't know if this is noteworthy, but seems to me that Homestar's asking whether or not the implied scoutee was good at video games was a reference to the real world Army's (American) semi-recent practices aimed at getting gamers to join the army. Most notably their creation of the video game, army simulator hybrid "America's Army." [[User:70.146.127.219|70.146.127.219]] 06:22, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

I was just wondering, should it be an inside reference that the Military Fair isn't going on for three weeks?

== Question for Paul P. ==

Considering the current status that's going on with Podstar Runner, I'm sure we're all expecting this email to be available to download tomorrow.
Anyways onto the question: Paul, if you still have an account, were you aware about the fact that Strong Badia doesn't have or need an army before you sent your email? I.E. have you ever seen email 93 before the sending? Was that just toying with Strong Bad or something? Personally, I thought "Military Careers" woulda been a better title than "More Armies," but hey, it's all been done. I'll "not worry about it" when I'm asked to do so. --[[User:Charlie Jr.|Charlie Jr.]] 00:25, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

== Explanation of lunch-handeree label ==

Phlip removed the following comment of mine from the Explanations sections as being too speculative. I think it's the only explanation that makes sense, but I solicit other opinions, with the intention of putting it back on the page if no good counterarguments are offered:

:''Strong Bad's odd comment ''You look like the type of kid that gets his lunch handed to him daily'' (which would hardly be a source of humilitation) could be explained as a [[Portmanteau]]-like combination of "gets his ass handed to him" and "has his lunch money taken/stolen".''

[[User:Shelikescloth|Shelikescloth]] 13:23, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
:A portmanteau is a word. One word. Which is not multiple words. And as far as your example, it seems to me to be explaining the joke, which we do not do.
{{User:Qermaq/sig}} 13:37, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

:: Right, that's why I said "Portmanteau-like". But there could be a better way to express that: suggest one. As to "explaining the joke": [[HRWiki:Standards#Explanations]] directs us very clearly: "If you feel that a sizeable portion of the audience won't understand a joke, instead of explaining it directly, explain what the pieces of the joke are... and allow the reader to put them together." So there are only two valid objections to my comment: either (1) the explanation is wrong, or (2) it is right, but you think that most of the audience ''will'' get the joke without help. (We've got one implicit vote against (2) from Phlip, since he removed the comment as too speculative, and thus presumably not obviously right). [[User:Shelikescloth|Shelikescloth]] 13:51, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

::By the way, you're wrong that a portmanteau must be only one word; OED has citations in the meaning of "a term ''or phrase'' which encompasses two or more meanings". I've fixed the [[portmanteau]] page to reflect this. [[User:Shelikescloth|Shelikescloth]] 12:48, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Since no one's offered a clear counter-argument to my comment since I posted it a week ago, I'm going to put it back on the article page. [[User:Shelikescloth|Shelikescloth]] 11:04, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
:Oops, I didn't see this thread before... here's my thinking on my original removal of the fact: The link to "getting one's rear handed to one" is pretty obvious, and falls under your option number 2... however, this isn't a problem, as we tend to point out portmanteaus regardless of how obvious they are, mostly so that we can hang a link to the [[Portmanteaus|article]] (though we might want to reword it to get the swear out of it). The link to "having one's lunch money stolen", however, is much more tenuous... with merely the word "lunch" to hang on... it's because of this part that I thought was too speculatory to stay. I always saw it as just inserting the non-sequitur of "lunch" to replace the [[swear]] in the phrase, rather than a melding of two phrases together. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 12:58, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Make your case, Cloth person. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 19:09, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

I've put the comment back on the page, but various users keep trying to censor the word "ass" out of it. Since I can find no HRWIKI policy ruling out the use of this everyday non-obscenity, I regard the removal as the imposition of a few people's, to say the least, ''idiosyncratic'' little hang-up. As I pointed out in the edit summary, "crap" already occurs hundreds of times on this wiki and in the HR oeuvre. I would additionally point out that "ass" itself already occurs in the oeuvre, in the compound "smartass" in [[Hairstyle Runner]], so its inclusion on this wiki has already been accepted.

:::To see a precendent for the sensoring of this word, go to [[Talk:Fonts#Swears]]. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 19:30, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

:::: First of all, that thread deals with a longer compound word of which "ass" is only one part, so it's not clear that the objection was to the "ass" part at all. Secondly, the issue is raised by the same [[User:OptimisticFool]], so is not in any way additional independent evidence. [[User:Shelikescloth|Shelikescloth]] 19:39, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
:::::Let's not [[Wikipedia:Wikilawyering|wikilawyer]], please. Regardless of who suggested the censoring, it was agreed to by a large group of people at that discussion page.

:::::: ''Let's not [[Wikipedia:Wikilawyering|wikilawyer]], please'': I've just read the definition of that, and it does not apply here, since all I did was point out that the "precedent" is not a "precedent"; please do not try to bully me. To the main point: I never disputed the policy of avoiding "swears". I am disputing that ''ass'' is a "swear" (and supposedly "worse" than ''crap''). You both just keep ignoring that point and presupposing your own opinion.

::::::: As far as I know, ass is a swear when referring to the body part and not a swear when referring to the animal.

::::::::See [[HRWiki talk:Swears#What words are over the line?]]. Words in group 2 should only be used if said directly.

Turning aside from the [[HRWiki:swear|swear]] side-discussion... I still think the link between "has his lunch handed to him" and the stealing of lunch money is tenuous at best, and should be removed as speculation. Save for one mention that's relatively hidden on [[Hairstyle Runner]] (which is a rather old page), TBC have avoided using "ass" in H*R, to the point of [[lady fan|replacing it in other common phrases]]. I still think it's much more likely that they just replaced it with a non-sequitur than that it's a portmanteau of the two expressions. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 09:30, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

'''Page Title:''' Lappy 486

{{dvd|strongbad_email.exe Disc Six}}

==Transcript==

''{The email begins with a red curtain with "sbemail 200" on it. Then, the curtain opens to show the Lappy with a pixelated bugle on it. Trumpets begin to play. Pan out to the Computer Room with roses on its floor. The Cheat appears and plays a trill on a flute.}''

'''SINGER:''' Two hundred sbemails, exhausting just to think about.

''{During the song, "200" appears in the fonts of the Tandy, Compy, and Lappy sequentially, followed by "strongbad_email.exe" typed out. Strong Bad enters the computer room on the red carpet while roses are thrown. Marzipan and Coach Z are seen watching him enter}''

'''SINGER:''' How can we face two hundred sbemails?

''{Strong Bad continues to approach the computer, showing that the King of Town and Bubs are also in the room. We then cut to the singer, who is revealed to be the Poopsmith, wearing a bowtie and holding a microphone, as he finishes his song.}''

'''THE POOPSMITH:''' The thought of all those sbemails makes me weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeak!

''{Cut to Strong Bad standing on his stool. Strong Sad can be seen among the audience.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{finishing the song}'' ''Puke!'' ''{echoing}'' Please be seated. ''{The audience sits down.}'' ''{normally}'' How about that Poopsmith, huh? Breaking his vow of silence to perform my two hundredth sbemail intro song! ''{Close shot of Strong Bad}'' I'm almost ''{pantomimes wiping his nose}'' sniff ''{voice wavers}'' not totally disgusted!

''{Cut to the Poopsmith, surrounded by flies. He gives Strong Bad the thumbs up, and whatsit drips from his glove. Cut to Strong Bad sitting down at the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, I take that back. ''{types out "strongbad_email.exe"}'' Okay, here we go!

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*The term "Stealing One's Thunder" (from which the title is derived) is used in situations wherein one person is associated with hoopla stemming from the efforts of another person. In this case, sbemail #200 was intended to be for Strong Bad, but the email itself was addressed to Homestar Runner, who would therefore be recognized as the recipient of the 200th email.
*When Strong Bad sends his email, he mentions several technical terms:
**[[Wikipedia:Domain Name Server#DNS_resolvers|DNS Resolving]] is a process done by a DNS (Domain Name System) server in which it identifies the IP address of a [[Wikipedia:Domain name|domain name]].
**[[Wikipedia:Simple Mail Transfer Protocol|SMTP]], or Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, is a standard for servers sending email.
*[[Wikipedia:Universal Serial Bus|USB]] and [[Wikipedia:IEEE 1394 interface|FireWire]] are modern types of serial connections. Older serial connectors were defined by the number of connectors or "pins" they have. Therefore, a 4-pin or an 8-pin would have 4 or 8 pins, respectively, though no such standard connections existed. Serial ports were traditionally 9-pin and 25-pin.

===Trivia===
*Opening [[HR:hremail49.html|hremail49.html]] will play an excerpt from that email.
**Opening [[HR:hremail24.html|hremail24.html]] will play what is left of an event referenced in the previous [[hremail]].
*The label on the [[Floppy Disk Container]] reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#duck pond|duck pond]]".
*[[John Linnell]] provides the voice of the Poopsmith, marking the only main character who is not voiced by [[the Brothers Chaps]] or [[Missy]].
*This is the only time we unambiguously hear the Poopsmith talk. 
*The Cheat is playing a [[Left Handedness|left-handed]] flute at the beginning.
*When this toon was first released, the thunder sound effects and the flashing were not there when Strong Bad said "email thunder". These were added later.
*This email took the shortest amount of time for any Strong Bad Email to come to DVD, as [[strongbad_email.exe Disc Six]] came only two months later.
*The summary for the [[Podstar Runner]] RSS feed reads, "Strong Bad finds out Homestar has his own email show and is trying to steal his email thunder."

===Remarks===
*After the close-up on the Lappy, the cursor disappears.
*In the flashbacks to [[caper]] and [[long pants]], Strong Bad's design is the newest one, rather than [[Strong Bad Evolution|the one he had at that time, which was the sixth]].
*When The Paper comes down, it is clickable and will let you email Strong Bad until he accidentally burns it up.
*Strong Bad pulls the giant bottle of Mountain Dew from [[Hammerspace]].
*Strong Bad has no idea Homestar has an Email address, yet he knew exactly what it was in [[credit card]].
*Strong Bad is surprised at the email, but in [[the process]] he says he picks the email beforehand.
*The Strong Sad Easter egg simply said "sbemail200" on the corner of the screen without the ".html" at the end, as opposed to "sbemail179''.html''" in [[pizza joint]]. This may be because this email's URL is not "sbemail200.html" but "sbemailtwohundred.html".
*Rolling over "[[kind of cool]]" to show [[Senor Cardgage]] doesn't work on the word "cool", which is located at the beginning of the next line.
*Strong Bad never actually answers an email in this cartoon.
*During the closeup of "Dear Homestar", the following text is visible on the Lappy with a decompiler:
<blockquote>Oh...Steven! I think this may finally be it you guys! After 
200 emails I'm finally gonna get 
to make out with D-D-D </blockquote>
:This is most likely a scrapped response for the initial email, and was later featured in [[Quote of the Week#QW-2008-10-16|the Quote of the Week]].

===Goofs===
*When Homestar puts cinnamon on his face, his eyes are the wrong size. They're quite noticeably squished and placed too high on his face.
[[Image:EmailThunderOffSync.png|thumb|100px|Blurry blurry blurry blurry blurry blurry pants!]]
*In the clip from [[long pants]], when Homestar is blurred in the foreground, the table and carpet within the image of blurred Homestar are not in their proper places.
**Additionally, the first line of words on the screen are not there.
*On the end screen, there is no space between [[cheatday]] and [[pom pom]].
*The back button sends you to the [[TV Time Toons Menu|Toons page]] rather than the Sbemail page.

===Fixed Goofs===
*Originally on the end screen, highlighting [[ghosts]] would bring up a picture of [[Sterrance]], who never appeared in that email. This has since been corrected; the [[Bad Graphics Ghost]] now appears when that email is highlighted.
*Also originally on the end screen, sibbie was spelled "sibby".

===Glitches===
*If the Limozeen Easter egg is activated, followed by another Easter egg, Limozeen will continue to play over the other one.

===Inside References===
*Coach Z returning [[Strong Bad's fondue pot]] is a reference to [[50 emails]].
*Strong Bad signs his message to Homestar "Abdi", based on [[Abdi LaRue]], the sender of the very first email, [[some kinda robot]].
*This is another email featuring [[Mountain Dew]].
**Strong Bad pours Mountain Dew on the Happy like Homestar did to the Compy in [[anything]]. He also quotes Homestar's "apply liberally", imitating Homestar's impediment. He then [[Strong Bad Smiling|smiles]] twice while he pours it; once when sparks start to appear, and once when The Paper comes down.
*The Easter egg with Limozeen is lifted directly from [[flashback]].
*The Easter egg with Strong Sad refers to [[Strong Sad's Lament]], which, true to Strong Sad's words, hasn't been updated since September 9, 2005.
*In this email, The Cheat plays the [[Instruments|flute]].
*The Easter egg with Strong Sad uses the same theme as in the Strong Sad Easter egg in [[pizza joint]].
*Homestar's laptop [[Happy 8600]] is manufactured by [[Tandy]].
*Strong Bad apparently [[Interrupted Conversations|interrupts]] a Homestar Runner Email when he enters the room.
*The fonts used to write "200" in the intro are the fonts from each of [[Computers#Computers|Strong Bad's computers]].
*Homestar once again uses [[cinnamon]] for stubble.
*Homestar's disdain for the "repeat" pillow-fight topic seems to reflect the "topics the Brothers' Chap aren't likely to answer," most notably requests to "[[draw Trogdor again]]."
*Strong Bad's signs his email to Homestar with the catchphrase "[[Seriously|Sewiously]]", in the same vein as emails he received signed "[[Crapfully yours]]".
*"Squeazeled" and "cavalanche" are [[portmanteaus]].
*The Paper returns to beat up New Paper, making it the first appearance of the original on the site since the email [[the paper]].
*Strong Bad's exclamation, "WTC?" appears to be an initialism for "[[Crap|What the Crap?]]".
*There are three instances of [[Not X]] in this email: Strong Bad is "almost not totally disgusted" by The Poopsmith's singing; he asks Homestar for "a tour of your not-in-front-of-your-computer"; and in an Easter egg, Strong Sad tells viewers to "be sure and not check out my blog."
*Homestar's list of hremails is similar to the one in [[personal favorites]], in that they both have narration that says ''"like the one when... wrote in..."'' and ''"and the one where..."'', as well as the first two emails being real and the rest being fake.
*Homestar claims to have taken some of [[Strong Sad's Pills|Strong Sad's pills]] when remembering the email [[long pants]].

===Real-World References===
*The Poopsmith Easter egg refers to the song "My Michelle" by [[Guns N' Roses]].
*Homestar's laptop is modeled after an [[Wikipedia:OLPC XO-1|XO-1]], an inexpensive model distributed as part of the [[Wikipedia:One Laptop Per Child|One Laptop Per Child]] project. The laptop was made available to North American consumers during the 2007 holiday season in a "Give 1 Get 1" offer. Interestingly, the XO-1 keyboard is designed to resist liquids.
* The menu page description for this toon says, "Homestar will flip you. He will flip you for real." This is a reference to a memorable line spoken by [[Wikipedia: Benicio Del Toro|Benicio Del Toro's]] character in [[Wikipedia: The Usual Suspects|The Usual Suspects]].

==DVD Version==
*The roll-over egg and downloading of the song (for obvious reasons) is disabled.
*The HREmail 49 and 24 Easter eggs are directly accessible from the end of the toon.

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

'''MATT:''' A millstone, Mike, a Millstone coffee. This email is like a cup of Millstone coffee.

'''MIKE:''' So, we still really haven't decided if there'll be more sbemails or not.

'''MATT:''' Oh, I've decided.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah?

'''MATT:''' Yeah, there won't be.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' There won't be?

'''MATT:''' Yeah, that's— we're done.

'''MIKE:''' Okay.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, that e— that slow-motion walk clip, that was the culmination of all of eight years of efforts, or six years in Strong Bad Email case.

'''MIKE:''' In Strong Bad Email case?

'''MATT:''' Yeah. ''{pause}'' So we totally collaborated with John Linnell in this song, and for weeks ahead we sent him notes and he would send... rough drafts of the song back to us, and he totally didn't just make this song and send it to us and there was maybe one email exchange between the two of us.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Oh really?

'''MATT:''' Yeah, that was our creative process.

'''MIKE:''' Oh, okay.

'''MATT:''' It was not that. No, we told him, hey, do you— we had originally asked him to do something for 199, since he had done a song for email 99, but then email 199, we kinda just came and went, did a normal email, and then, uhh, he just made this.

'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously}'' He made this song.

'''MATT:''' He was like, hey, I made a little thing, a little intro for a— the sbemail 200.

'''MIKE:''' And then we listened to it about ten times in a row and then we thought, I dunno, it just came to us that maybe The Poopsmith should be singing it.

'''MATT:''' Yep. ''{pause}'' It's a bombshell, man.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, man.

'''MATT:''' TBC dropped a bombshell at the beginning of this email.

'''MIKE:''' That email thunder, the little lightning and thunder flashiness was added, like, a couple hours after it was up.

'''MATT:''' Oh yeah, that's right.

'''MIKE:''' I fixed a couple goofs, and then I added that, just cause I had the idea to add it.

'''MATT:''' Nice, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' I'm surprised we didn't add, we had always talked about putting something on Homestar's wall.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' It looks a little bare.

'''MATT:''' A picture of s— of, uhh, Señor Havin' A Little Trouble, maybe, or Mr. Bland. ''{pause}'' he— Homestar has, uhh, Ryan Sterritt's kitchen table.

'''MIKE:''' And Ikea's kitchen table.

'''MATT:''' And a nice molded-plastic chair. ''{pause}'' Oh, tappa-tappa-tappa.

'''MIKE:''' So we had talked about doing this for a long time, having a cartoon where you start on Homestar, and Homestar's doing a bunch of stuff, and falls asleep, and then it turns out that this was sort of the p— Homestar's version of the Strong Bad Email, where he would then come into a Strong Bad Email like this.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Did I explain that well?

'''MATT:''' Not well at all.

'''MIKE:''' We talked about making a cartoon where it's Homestar and then at the end of the cartoon or somewhere within the cartoon you see one of there little scenes where Homestar popped into a Strong Bad Email, and it was actually part of a larger story focusing on Homestar the Runner. That was eloquence. ''{unintelligible}''

'''MATT:''' Yeah, that was a little better. Now that spent half the commentary talking about that.

'''MIKE:''' We got nothing else to talk about

'''MATT:''' I like— I think Coach Z with that fondue pot on his head should be some kind of— ''and the tail'' should be some kind of Johnny Appleseed

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' We should make up like a, Saddy Dumpington— it should be the Saddy Dumpington version of Coach Z.

'''MIKE:''' Oh, yeah.

'''MATT:''' He's got a tiger tail.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Monday's update, I call that.

'''MIKE:''' Alright.

'''MATT:''' Get started, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' What was the, uh—

'''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' I've got diarrhea, I won't be able to do work on that one.

'''MIKE:''' What did you record the, uh, sound of Homestar's computer, uh, keyboard tapping sound?

'''MATT:''' Uh, it was on my— my old, uh, laptop at home.

'''MIKE:''' Oh.

'''MATT:''' Nothing— nothing interesting.

'''MIKE:''' ''{pause}'' Umm...

'''MATT:''' Whooyaa!

'''MIKE:''' He says some nice whooyaas several times.

'''MATT:''' Several, three or four whooyaas. ''{pause}'' Umm, so this is the first time we've ever seen Strong Bad re— like, send a, uh, actually send an email, right?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, the cursor blinking up in the subject bar.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, that was you, man.

'''MIKE:''' Mm-hn.

'''MATT:''' ''{pause}'' Umm, how does Homestar type with no gloves of any kind on? Right? Hands? Whoo!

'''MIKE:''' Uh, what do you call that?

'''MATT:''' A blurry swoosh.

'''MIKE:''' A swoosh?

'''MATT:''' That's a whip pan.

'''MIKE:''' A whip pan, that's what I was looking for.

'''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' A 180-degree whip stick.

'''MIKE:''' Did you see the stool, the stool was kinda slowly gliding back.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Maybe it had been greased recently.

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' That, uh, is that the same sign from, uh, the hygiene email? Gene's Mouth National—

'''MATT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Yeah, the one— Gene's Mouth National—

'''MIKE:''' Park.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' ''{pause}'' Do do do do do do do do guh guh guh guh guh guh! ''{pause}'' Umm... ''{pause}'' Throw— there's a lot of callbacks in this email.

'''MIKE:''' Mountain Dew, pouring Mountain Dew.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, there's really no original content in it at all.

'''MIKE:''' It's a clip show, it may as well just of been a clip show.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, you did a poor job on this 200th email.

'''MIKE:''' But, uh, I—

'''MATT:''' It's too bad this is the last email we're ever making.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' For sure, I decided right now, for certain, never again.

'''MIKE:''' Really?

'''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' Sorry.

'''MIKE:''' I bet by the time this DVD's out we will have made one already.

'''MATT:''' No.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Alright.

'''MATT:''' I'm holdin' out.

'''MIKE:''' Okay.

'''MATT:''' I have a sore throat and dia— diarrhea.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' I'm sure everyone needed to know that.

'''MATT:''' That one's my favorite.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, that one's my favorite.

'''MATT:''' Oh, I like that one, too.

'''MIKE:''' That one sucks.

'''MATT:''' Oh, I— oh, that one. Yeah, that one's bad.

That Guy Over There: undid revision 612103; That's not really worth noting.

{{sbenav|2}}

[[Image:sbemail2.PNG|thumb|"Uhdyeah, what ees it, Strong Baaaaayaad?"]]

{{aboutemail}} {{forcharacter|Homsar}}

A misspelling of "[[Homestar Runner|Homestar]]" leaves Strong Bad attempting to kill Homsar.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' {{Film|Strong Bad}}, {{Film|Homsar}}

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

'''Date:''' 2001

'''Page Title:''' Tandy 400!!!

{{dvd|strongbad_email.exe Disc One}}

== Transcript ==

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing, types "run Strongbad's__email"}'' I'm gonna check my email all of the time, doo doo doo...

<blockquote class="tandy email">Hi Strong Bad, 
If you hate Homsar so much, 
why don't you kill him? 
-Vinnie C.</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad says the last line as "From Vinnie C."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know what, Vinnie? You're right. I'll be right back. ''{gets up}''

''{Cut to Homsar standing in the Field. Strong Bad enters the frame in the foreground.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, Homsar!

'''HOMSAR:''' ''{faces Strong Bad}'' Uhdyeah, what ees it, Strong Baaaaayaad?

''{Strong Bad leaves the frame and the Heavy Lourde falls on Homsar, completely crushing him. Cut back to Tandy 400.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{sits down, typing}'' Oh man, Vinnie. That feels so much better. Thanks a lot! ''{stops typing}'' Okay, so until next time, keep sending me your questions, and I will keep making fun of your punctuation and spelling. I mean, answer them.

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

== Fun Facts ==
[[Image:Sbemail2 old emails button.PNG|150px|thumb|"old emails" button]]
===Trivia===
*This is the first email in which Strong Bad makes fun of someone's [[Poorly Written Emails|spelling]].
*This is also the first email that shows an area outside of the [[computer room]].
*This is the first email where a character other than Strong Bad appears.
*This marks the first appearances of Homsar and the [[Heavy Lourde]].
*The back button at the end of this email used to go to the games menu instead of the Strong Bad Email menu (an "old emails" button used to be present that would link to the old emails). After [[flashback]] was released, [[The Brothers Chaps]] removed the old emails button and fixed the back link.
*The conclusion is a reworded version of the one in [[some kinda robot]]

=== Remarks ===
* Strong Bad's mouth doesn't move when he says "doo doo doo."
* The Flash file for this email is the smallest in terms of file size at just over 100 kilobytes.
* The Heavy Lourde falls from [[Hammerspace|nowhere]].

===Goofs===
*Strong Bad's mask doesn't have laces on the back of it when he goes outside.
*Strong Bad's neck cannot be seen when he pulls away from the Tandy.

===Fast Forward===
*In [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 5.0]], Homsar leaves a message thanking [[Marzipan]] for the flowers she sent him while he was in the hospital. It's implied that he was in the hospital because the Heavy Lourde had been dropped on him in this email.

{{dvd|Everything Else, Volume 2}}
__FORCETOC__
== Transcript ==
''{Open to Strong Bad standing in a field in autumn, wearing a turkey costume.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Dun dun dadun dun DUN! Oh, I'm some stupid turkey, as stupid as they come! Cut off my head,

''{An axe, swung from above, cuts the "turkey" head from Strong Bad's costume.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' stuff me with bread,

''{With a "pop!", a loaf of [[bread]] appears in the "turkey" head's beak.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' go and suck your thumb!

''{The Cheat, Homestar Runner, Strong Mad, Bubs, and Coach Z appear from behind Strong Bad.}''

'''ALL:''' ''{singing}'' Go... and... suck... your...

'''ALL (except Coach Z and The Cheat):''' ''{singing}'' thuuuuuuumb! 
'''COACH Z:''' ''{singing, simultaneously}'' theeerrrrrrmb!
 
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{singing, simultaneously}'' meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Now let us go and partake of our wonderous feast!

''{Screen blanks with buttons reading "Back" and "Play Again" appearing}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{offscreen}'' Hey, wait a minute! Where's The King of Town?

''{Cut to the King of Town, who is much fatter than usual, and lying down behind an overturned table amidst dozens of cleared plates, a fish skeleton, and a platter holding the ribs of some meaty animal. He turns green for a split second, then his face goes back to normal.}''

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Doo hoo ooh..oooh....''{hiccups}'' More gravy, please!

''{The King of Town slowly turns greener. The "Back" and "Play Again" buttons reappear.}''

== Fun Facts ==

=== Trivia ===
* Though Strong Bad still has a bit of his Mexican accent, he is now starting to sound a bit more like he does today.
* The final "Go and suck your thumb" is in stereo. For example, notice how Homestar is only on the left channel.
* The title description used to say "Strong Bad gives thanks while the King tanks", but was later changed to "Strong Bad gives thanks". Now it says "Strap on that feed bag!!".

=== Remarks ===
*When the Back and Play Again buttons come up for the first time, they aren't clickable.
*At the end, the King of Town's face becomes greener and greener the longer you watch, but it eventually stops.
*As noted in Trivia, when everyone is singing "Go and suck your thumb", Homestar's voice is separate from all the others. If you pause the Flash file when the line is sung, Homestar's voice continues singing anyway.
*This toon was originally a belated Thanksgiving toon, having been released significantly after Thanksgiving of 2001.
*Five of the main characters appear from [[Hammerspace]].
**Additionally, the axe swings down from out of Hammerspace.

===Goofs===
* When Homestar talks, this hat moves up and down.

=== Inside References ===
*[[The King of Town]]'s line, "More gravy, please!" is a reference to his line, "More butter, please," which appears in [[Who Said What Now?]]

=== Real-World References ===
* The position of Strong Bad's turkey costume with its enormous plumage resembles the famous [[Wikipedia:National Broadcasting Company logos#NBC Peacock logos|NBC peacock]], especially prior to the current version of the six-feather peacock. The original peacock had eleven feathers, which is just one short of Strong Bad's costume, which features twelve feathers.

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

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

'''MATT:''' I did this... on Thanksgiving. I didn't think of it until Thanksgiving, and put it up, like, at— at 11:00 p.m. on Thanksgiving.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' That was when I lived in New York and I did it all myself.

'''MIKE:''' There's some size issues happening with all those characters!

'''MATT:''' Yeah, not to scale.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Yeah, I don't think that any of them are correct. ''{Homestar invites all to partake of the wonderous feast}'' ''{sadly}'' Okay...

'''MIKE:''' Oh, I— I did remember I like this King of Town, uh, all the plates.

'''MATT:''' Yeah?

'''MIKE:''' Stacked-up plates.

'''MATT:''' Were you impressed with my style?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, 'cause Matt did this one all by himself.

'''MATT:''' ''{stifles laughter}'' Those very flat... hills in the background. And there's shading on them.

'''MIKE:''' Not ''advanced'' shading, anyway.

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' No-ho, sir!

== Fourth Wall Breaks? ==

Hey Heimstern, I was just looking around the [[:Category:Articles_needing_cleanup|list of articles that need cleaning-up]] and I noticed that [[Fourth Wall Breaks]] is on there. When you look at its [[Talk:Fourth_Wall_Breaks|talk page]], it says that it's a featured article. Just curious, but why is it a featured article if it's marked for cleanup? -[[User:The Vector Kid|TVK]] 06:17, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
:Well, the problems that need cleanup may have developed after the article was featured, or it may simply be that we noticed problems that we didn't notice at the time of the feature. Note that we aren't quite as strict about the quality of our featured articles as Wikipedia is, also. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 18:39, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
::Gotcha. I'm just used to 'kipedia I guess, but thanks for the update!

== Sandbox thing ==

How do I at least get the CODE for my sandbox thing back after that guy got rid of it? Can you please help me? {{User:Acam30/sig}} 04:46, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
:You can find in [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&oldid=581704 this] revision. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:47, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
::Yes, thank you. I figured it out. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 04:48, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

== Complaint from Homsarstrongbad150 ==

i already told you peoples why i edited my page is because i thought i never got a reply that mike sent and he was clearly online because i saw him edit a page. most people check their e-mail daily. technically, you're not it's dot com, so you weren't asked to not block me, but i had a good reason this time. on top of that, it ''is'' my page, so why should i not be able to edit it. someone get Q over here. he'll agree that thinking the email was missing somewhere in the internet is a good enough reason to post there. and it is MY page. i should be able to use it. get Q over here. he'll agree. we're buds. he's on my [[User:Homsarstrongbad150#cool users list|cool users list]]. y'know what? i'm going to get Q, and i'm going to see what joeyday thinks of you. yeah, that's right. i'm going to the top, asking the big man. this was one edit, do you get it? i think i never got the reply to my email, so i asked, and now i can't use my own talk page for 2 days. so i did try not to post there. i had a legit reason to this time. that was a good question.

"thanks a lot", says {{User:Homsarstrongbad150/sig}} 03:11, 19 October 2008 (UTC) sarcastically and angrily
:I know perfectly well that you've told us why you edited your talk page. Your reason was not acceptable. The fact that you are having email problems or that Michael did not reply as quickly as you thought he should have does not mean we have to let you use HRWiki as a messaging service. As for your assertion that it's '''your''' talk page, you are entirely mistaken. Your talk page does '''not''' belong to you, it belongs to the entire wiki, and therefore it's subject to all the wiki's guidelines and policies. Your use of your talkpage is a privilege, and, since you abused that privilege, it was revoked. Call for Qermaq, JoeyDay, Tom, whoever to look over my edits and admin actions as much as you want; I believe they stand on their own and that most users will completely understand. You, by contrast, have taken actions that have gotten you blocked for a week. And did you notice that '''no one''' is defending you? That should cause you to think that just maybe '''you''' might be in the wrong, and not me, Phlip, Dot com and others who've warned and taken administrative action against you. Please realize also that if you return to this behaviour after your block is over, you can expect to be blocked again for longer (possibly indefinitely). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:24, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
::Hate to break it to you, Homsarstrongbad150, but Heimi is 100% in the good here. You were not requested to avoid chat on your user talk if it was convenient - you were told absolutely that a consequence was awaiting further misuse of the talk, and when that happened you got that consequence. There's really no wiggle room here. Specific behavior was expected of you, and you didn't demonstrate it. Hopefully in the next days you can cool off a little and come back prepared to follow the standards, policies and guidelines we all share here in order to make it pleasant for all the users. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 07:34, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

== Just wondering... ==

Is referring to someone "n00b" considered flaming? I've been careful to restrain myself, but I was just curious. Something tells me it's not a good idea. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 04:27, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
:I was just going down my user talk page recently and discovered that I left this question unanswered. Sorry about that, I forgot; didn't mean to ignore you or anything. Anyway, I'm not sure "n00b" is always flaming, but it's pretty much never a nice word, so I would advise against using it. "Newbie" can be a nice alternative sometimes, incidentally. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 11:13, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
::I actually prefer avoiding calling attention to it altogether - just say "I know this is new for you" or "It's clear you are like me when I first edited a wiki" or something. Particularly with a 'newbie', one should avoid language that might exclude and might telegraph their possible inferiority. They probably feel like an outsider, and the goal is to make them feel like they are welcome to edit as much as any insider. The language we use should reflect that. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 13:09, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Just for clarification, I have never referred to anyone as "n00b" on the wiki. I'm a good boy. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 15:33, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

As do most people on this wiki, I enjoy watching Homestar Runner cartoons. Wanna know how long I've been watching them? Well, that's a stupid question, Abdi. Check out my userbox!

As you've probably noticed if you've seen my contributions to discussion pages and STUFF, I can be a pretty argumentative person... but, naturally, only when I'm right. Some of my favorite things to do on this wiki are add fun facts, correct spelling and grammar, and, of course, participate in intelligent discussion on talk pages. I've also reverted vandalism on a couple of occasions, which makes me feel accomplished, but I'm happy to say I don't usually spot any.

I think my work speaks for itself (which is not always a good thing), so why don't you head on over to my [[Special:Contributions/That Guy Over There|contributions page]] and check it out?

In closing, I'd just like to clarify that I do not [[vacation#Postcard_5|''eat'' antiques]].

I speak with my friends almost exclusively in Homestar Runner references. This sometimes confuses people, which I find very amusing.

Once while in Florida in the Orange County Convention Center, a complete stranger, having no prior knowledge of my interest in Homestar Runner, walked up to me and quoted the intro to Teen Girl Squad. I also found this very amusing.

I have all kinds of jokes in my Spanish class. One of them last year was that I would always try to work the question "¿Dónde está un huevo?" into any and every oral assignment. For you non-Spanish speakers, that translates into "[[Where's an Egg?|Where is an egg?]]"

I like to write Homestar Runner quotes on the chalkboard in my sophomore history teacher's classroom. Only a select few cool people appreciate them. I'm... I'm one of the cool people. Really.

For my final project in physics last school year, I was assigned to build a roller coaster with a group. It was a virtual model and it was called, you guessed it, The Bowels of Trogdor. I even played the Trogdor theme song in the PowerPoint.

== I'll tell you what I think! ==

[[tape-leg|Tape-leg]] is actually kinda funny. [[the basics|The basics]] is indisputably the worst email ever, followed closely by [[winter pool]].

Everything Homsar says is hilarious.

Nothing Marzipan says is hilarious, with the singular exception of the quote listed above.

Strong Sad is almost never hilarious unless he's [[caffeine|loaded on caffeine]], being [[The Baloneyman|struck by a baloney sammich truck]], or [[A Folky Tale|telling the folky tale of Saddy Dumpington]].

The Lappy is way overdue for some sorta catastrophe. Seriously, folks. Strong Bad has checked over eighty emails on that thing.

Homestar's mention of [[unnatural|chocolate cake]] on that picnic table over there is an obvious reference to Homsar in [[strong badathlon]]. I don't care what the [[HRWiki:STUFF/Archive/unnatural|STUFF results]] tell you; that's the dang truth!

I would pay big money to see a Homestar Runner movie. I'd probably pay Dish Network for an extra channel if it had a Homestar Runner TV show on it, too.

According to the June 5, 2008 episode of [http://www.gamespot.com/video/945803/6192179/on-the-spot--06-05-08 On the Spot], the guys over at Telltale Games, the ''makers'' of the '''STRONG BAD VIDEO GAME''', don't know who Stinkoman is. That's just pathetic.

Apparently that's not all this increadible typo could mean, so I need your help: What does it mean, and should it be a Fun Fact? {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 01:40, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
:I assume simplicity. It means "Did you grandma?" and no, there's no real point in putting this in the facts section. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 01:52, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
::It's random crap, which is so commonplace in Homestar Runner cartoons that it's not worth noting. Besides, unless you can read either Matt or Mike Chapman's mind, we'll never know whether it was intended that way or a typo. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 03:13, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

== REAL page load error? ==

I don't know if this is just me... but when I try to play this toon it always stops after the "name the inconsistency" line. Is anyone else having this problem? {{User:Acam30/sig}} 02:52, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

It's not just you...And I haven't been able to get much of anything else on the website to load. Has homestarrunner.com been slashdotted?? :( [[Special:Contributions/76.114.174.169|76.114.174.169]] 14:38, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
:There was a server malfunction, which has since been fixed. --{{User:DENNIS/sig}} 22:03, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

==Button Easter egg or remark==

Don't know if this is worth mentioning, but at the end of the toon if you press the try again it starts it over...
--{{User:djm1791/sig}} 02:27, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
:Yes, it's already listed. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 02:30, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
::Should this be listed as an Easter egg or just a remark? — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:42, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
:::It was originally in the transcript, but i didn't like it there either. I'd lean towards easter egg, just because remark seems like too much of an understatement to what it is... even though calling it an egg is a bit of an overstatement, it's closer to egg than remark. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 18:40, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

==Relation to [[Not the 100th email!!!]]==
Simone named That Guy Over There claimed that it was already listed. Me no see where. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 13:41, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
:It's under [[Page Load Error#See Also|"See Also"]]. {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 13:54, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
::You'll also notice in the Remarks section it says, "This toon, similar to Not the 100th Email!!!, uses the URL 'sbemail200', while the real 200th email has an irregular URL like flashback's." {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 16:34, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
:::"See also" refers to toons of simmalar subject, I mean, the relationship between the two is stronger than this toon and SBemail 150?!?. It's like "Fast Forward"... only "Rewind". {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 20:24, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
::::There's really no point. That'd be like saying that every Puppet Stuff toon is a successor to the last one. The connection to "Not the 100th Email!!!" is pretty obvious and it's already been stated. Beyond that, the fact that the toons are similar doesn't make this one the "successor" to the previous one. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 23:29, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

[[Image:Visit_Historic_Over_There.png|thumb|left|300px|It really does look like that.]]
== Contributions to HRWiki ==
As do most people on this wiki, I enjoy watching Homestar Runner cartoons. Wanna know how long I've been watching them? Well, that's a stupid question, Abdi. Check out my userbox!

As you've probably noticed if you've seen my contributions to discussion pages and STUFF, I can be a pretty argumentative person... but, naturally, only when I'm right. Some of my favorite things to do on this wiki are add fun facts, correct spelling and grammar, and, of course, participate in intelligent discussion on talk pages. I've also reverted vandalism on a couple of occasions, which makes me feel accomplished, but I'm happy to say I don't usually spot any.

I think my work speaks for itself (which is not always a good thing), so why don't you head on over to my [[Special:Contributions/That Guy Over There|contributions page]] and check it out?

In closing, I'd just like to clarify that I do not [[vacation#Postcard_5|''eat'' antiques]].

I speak with my friends almost exclusively in Homestar Runner references. This sometimes confuses people, which I find very amusing.

Once while in Florida in the Orange County Convention Center, a complete stranger, having no prior knowledge of my interest in Homestar Runner, walked up to me and quoted the intro to Teen Girl Squad. I also found this very amusing.

I have all kinds of jokes in my Spanish class. One of them last year was that I would always try to work the question "¿Dónde está un huevo?" into any and every oral assignment. For you non-Spanish speakers, that translates into "[[Where's an Egg?|Where is an egg?]]"

I like to write Homestar Runner quotes on the chalkboard in my sophomore history teacher's classroom. Only a select few cool people appreciate them. I'm... I'm one of the cool people. Really.

For my final project in physics last school year, I was assigned to build a roller coaster with a group. It was a virtual model and it was called, you guessed it, The Bowels of Trogdor. I even played the Trogdor theme song in the PowerPoint.

== I'll tell you what I think! ==

[[tape-leg|Tape-leg]] is actually kinda funny. [[the basics|The basics]] is indisputably the worst email ever, followed closely by [[winter pool]].

Everything Homsar says is hilarious.

Nothing Marzipan says is hilarious, with the singular exception of the quote listed above.

Strong Sad is almost never hilarious unless he's [[caffeine|loaded on caffeine]], being [[The Baloneyman|struck by a baloney sammich truck]], or [[A Folky Tale|telling the folky tale of Saddy Dumpington]].

The Lappy is way overdue for some sorta catastrophe. Seriously, folks. Strong Bad has checked over eighty emails on that thing.

Homestar's mention of [[unnatural|chocolate cake]] on that picnic table over there is an obvious reference to Homsar in [[strong badathlon]]. I don't care what the [[HRWiki:STUFF/Archive/unnatural|STUFF results]] tell you; that's the dang truth!

I would pay big money to see a Homestar Runner movie. I'd probably pay Dish Network for an extra channel if it had a Homestar Runner TV show on it, too.

According to the June 5, 2008 episode of [http://www.gamespot.com/video/945803/6192179/on-the-spot--06-05-08 On the Spot], the guys over at Telltale Games, the ''makers'' of the '''STRONG BAD VIDEO GAME''', don't know who Stinkoman is. That's just pathetic.

===Remarks===
*The color of the steps are the same shade of gray as Homestar's shading, so his feet and soles do not appear to fit well.

===Goofs===

===Inside References===
*The Easter egg holds another instance of [[gender confusion]] and [[cross-dressing]].
*The second announcer referring to Homestar Runner as "Homerun Hitter" is a reference to the title page of his [[Page_Titles#Character_Videos|character video]], which in turn is a reference to the origin of his name.
*Marzipan's statement that her costume is "so offensive, it's not really offensive anymore" may be a reference to [[4 branches]], where Homestar's stupidity briefly "wraps" around to intelligence and he states Coulomb's Law.
*Marzipan ordering twelve Marzipan costumes may be a reference to [[garage sale]] and [[looking old]], when Homestar orders twelve of a product (himself and eStrong, respectively).
*The child on the flier for overprotective moms is dressed as [[Strong Sad Other Costumes|Twelve-Times-A-Day Man]], from [[fan club]].
*"Mancuso" was first referenced in [[Biz Cas Fri 3]], and later in [[Where's an egg?]].

Open on The Homestar Runner and Marzipan walking down an empty street. The windows and doors of the houses they pass are broken and boarded up, and there are many cracks in the walls and the road.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' This must be skid row.

''{They keep walking, and come upon a large box labelled "SOME HAMS".}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' This must be skid ro—

'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Wake up, Sickly Sam. Today's the first day of the day of your big outing.

''{Sickly Sam exits the box.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Up and at 'em.

''{Sickly Sam coughs twice, making dust clouds with the words "AS-" and then "ASBESTOS".}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' You need some dentifrice!

''{Behind Homestar and Marzipan is a garbage can with eyeholes. Cartoony eyes stick out of these holes as Homestar says the next line.}''

'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' If you're s'pose go on a big outing, we need to find you up a hot date.

''{Zoom in on the can with foreboding music, then cut to inside the can, where Strong Bad, Strong Man and The Sneak are present.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' So, that dead kid needs a hot date, eh? The only date he has is with the glue factory! ''{musical sting}'' Which I will sell him to! ''{musical sting}'' For money! ''{musical sting}''

''{cut to a room with The Homestar Runner and Sickly Sam inside}''

'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' First we gotta do something about that old 'tatoe sack.

''{The door is knocked}''

'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Uh oh, the doorbe—''{the scene quickly cuts to the same spot}'' There's a knock at the door.

</blockquote>

'''SICKLY SAM:''' Am I gonna make romance?

'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{placing a bow tie on Sickly Sam}'' Now let's get you dressed to the five and three-quarterses.

'''SICKLY SAM:''' I do believe you've spic'd my span.

''{The bow tie turns into a vampire bat and flies away with a Dracula-esque "bleh". Sickly Sam is now in a room with Marzipan, and the "Do a Dance" music is playing.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Come on, Jackson! Cut yourself a slice of rug! Let's turn those skeleton knees into bees' knees!

''{Sickly Sam starts doing the Charleston. After a short time his legs fall off, but he keeps dancing for a few seconds until his body falls to the ground. Sickly Sam is now on the football field with The Homestar Runner and Fort Wayne Locomotive.}''

'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Say there, Fort Wayne Locomotive, how's about a pep talk? Double-S here's about to go on his first date with a member of the opposite per-suasion.

'''FORT WAYNE LOCOMOTIVE:''' Well, I tell ya, Sickle Cell, when it comes to the ladies, you gotta turn and run the other way, like you're facin' the defense of the ''{holding flag}'' Sheboygan Booteaters! Dames is trouble! T-R-U-double-E-Bubble! ''{the camera zooms in as he spells "trouble", and the letters appear at the bottom of the screen as he says them}'' Hut one, hut two, and a hike!

''{Fort Wayne Locomotive hands a football to Sickly Sam and runs away, shouting gibberish. The football deflates in Sickly Sam's hands, and The Homestar Runner begins to walk away. Sickly Sam and The Homestar Runner are now in front of Bubs's cart, labeled "The Depot on Wheels!", with a handwritten sign reading "Fowlers 8bits/doz."}''

'''THE HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You're almost ready, Sickly Sam. Last thing you need is a reaaaaaaaaaaal... ''{The Homestar Runner's body begins to spin and his legs twist, pushing him upward. The camera zooms out as he keeps going up and off the panel, and he then abruptly snaps back down to the ground.}'' ...bouquet.

'''BUBS:''' Take a whiff.

''{He holds the bouquet in front of Sickly Sam. He takes a whiff, causing the flowers to combust into flames and set the rest of the flowers on fire. The entire film catches fire and burns away from the screen. The soundtrack cuts out abruptly, and after a couple of seconds of white screen, the scene cuts to Strong Bad laughing evilly as The Homestar Runner and Marzipan, tied up, slowly move along a conveyor belt toward a giant spinning sawblade. The scene then disappears and we see Sickly Sam, wearing a little hat with a flower on it, holding a box of 'Chockle,' standing on a wooden boardwalk, with a Coney-Island-style amusement park on a pier in the sunset in the background. Two very fake-looking birds 'fly' by, one from the left and one from the right, hanging from wires.}''

'''SICKLY SAM:''' I'm havin' a time.

''{Cut to another section of the boardwalk, with Strong Bad, Strong Man, and the Sneak.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, boys! Remember the plan! Step One: give him the business!

''{Strong Man flexes his muscles and the Sneak's nose wiggles sneakily.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Step Two: cocktails in the parlor! We shan't get foiled again!

''{Strong Man exits stage left, jumping out of the side of the frame and into the frame with Sickly Sam. He crashes through the wooden boards, leaving a jagged hole, from which three board-mounted 'shark fins' roil and dance greedily, as if invisible wooden sharks were feeding on him.}''

'''SICKLY SAM:''' What a pleasant hole.

''{Cut to closeup of Sickly Sam, who looks into the hole.}''

'''SICKLY SAM:''' I can't say 'nough good things about this hole.

''{Camera moves to boardwalk railing, along which the Sneak is sneaking, with a Big Knife held in his twirly tail. He poises his tail to strike like a scorpion, but is attacked by four wire-hung seagulls which caw and screech as they 'attack' him. They carry him into the distant background and drop him into the water. Cut to Strong Bad, who jumps into the frame from stage right and threatens Sickly Sam with a revolver as he speaks.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Curses, you bone-legged boob! I'll pump you generously full of lead, shot at high velocity out of my pistola! So as to pierce the flesh! Or in your case, the burlap sack!

''{Sickly Sam reaches out an improbably long right arm, opens his mouth, and, seizing Strong Bad by the head, slowly swallows him feet first. Strong Bad flings his pistol into the water in surprise.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Rrrah! I can't believe I'm being eaten! What a tragedy! I was supposed to sell you to the glue factory and whatnot!

''{Strong Bad is mustache-deep in Sickly Sam's mouth by now}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I can't believe I'm still being eaten! This is taking so much longer than I expected!

''{Cut to closeup of Sickly Sam}''

'''SICKLY SAM:''' ''{gulps}'' This is the finest meal I've ever had in my extremely lo-o-ong life!

''{Circle wipe from black screen to interior of Sickly Sam's torso. More dramatic organ music plays. There is a barrel, a shovel, a jug marked 'XXX,' and a Parcheesi board with a few tokens on it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Curses! All they've got in here is Parcheesi! Can't a gentle-man at least get a game of, say, pole-dagger, or Polynesian Roulette? What manner of uncivilized ribcage is this, anyways?

''{Fade out on Strong Bad shaking his fist in frustration. Organ music plays. Fade in on a smiling Sickly Sam standing in front of a glue factory. His left arm hugs a skinny, bony swaybacked horse with two enormous buck teeth, scraggly hair and a few strands of hair where a tail should be, wearing Far-Side-style ladies' glasses and a nametag labeled "Dee".}''

'''SICKLY SAM:''' I've finally found the love of a lifetime.

''{A big, beating pink heart appears over Dee's head. She leans into Sickly Sam's tender embrace as we circle-wipe to black. Only the heart is left above the words 'The End.' The organ music plays a final tune as the heart falls onto the lettering. The controls 'back?' and 'again?' appear.}''

===Trivia===
*This is the first full Old-Timey cartoon since 2004's [[That A Ghost]].
*This is the first full Old-Timey cartoon to include a color.
*This is the first full Old-Timey cartoon to not include [[Fat Dudley]] in the storyline.
*This is the first cartoon in which [[Fort Wayne Locomotive]] says anything.
**This is the first time the Fort Wayne Locomotive is made an official 1936 character, having previously been a background character. It is also the first time his name is officially used in a cartoon. The only other time he had been referred to by that name was in the commentary for [[Ballad of the Sneak]].

===Remarks===
*In the [[TV Time Toons Menu]]'s preview of the toon, the bouquets are completely black and white, whilst in the toon, they are partially pink.

*Fort Wayne Locomotive pulls the Sheboygan Booteaters flag out of [[hammerspace]].
*In the Honest Telegram, the word (STOP) is placed at the end of each line. This is syntactically incorrect, for (STOP) was used to indicate a period in telegrams (since punctuation marks cost extra), causing each line to be a sentence in itself. Also, the period in the last line makes the (STOP) redundant.

===Goofs===
*When Old Timey Strong Bad jumps in on the boardwalk, Sickly Sam's hat and [[chocolate]] disappear.
*Old-Timey Strong Bad's outline is visible on Sickly Sam and on the boardwalk when he is being eaten.

::::::I think it's worth noting, as it doesn't look like a typical "again" button like they usually do. It's set as a background item for most of the cartoon, and cannot be clicked.

:::::::::The buttons really have nothing to do with the cartoon. I have three "nay" votes - me, anonny, and It's Dot Com (if you scroll up, there's even a dispute as to whether it's a first at all). DorianGray, as far as I can tell, has only argued that the unique appearance should be noted, not the absence of a back button, and I'll agree with that. I see no consensus, however, that says it's notable that there's a "Play Again" button and no "Back" button. I say it stays off. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 01:03, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::I think we should acknowledge the fact that the "Try Again" button serves as a replay button, but not as an Easter egg. I don't even think it needs to be a Fun Fact.

How can we best mention "Name that Inconsistency" to link with [[Inconsistencies within the Homestar Runner universe]], if at all? --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:53, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

== Camping out ==

:''Camping out while waiting in line is a real practice of fan clubs, usually done while waiting for a major event (e.g. a major movie release, major sporting event, or for certain products, such as video games).''
I removed this because I don't think it really needs to be explained. Between all the examples listed, surely people are familiar with this practice. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:44, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
:I disagree. It was my understanding that we have long since abandoned the idea of not explaining references just because they're TOO well-known. I'm not even entirely convinced that it's famous enough to reasonably expect the majority of people to get it. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 17:54, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
::Yeah, there are still people out there who aren't familiar with camping out like that anyway. --{{User:Theyellowdart/sig}} 20:26, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
:::That's why I put it up there! {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 21:34, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
::::And at any rate, it is, by definition, a Real-World reference.{{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 21:36, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
:::::No, by definition, it's an explanation, not a reference to anything specific. We're explaining the joke. Our practice is specifically ''not'' to do that unless we truly believe a large segment of readers won't get it. Between sporting events, movies (think ''Star Wars'', ''Harry Potter''), and game systems (PS3, Wii), I'm fairly certain just about everyone who watches the toon already knows why they're doing what they're doing. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 21:48, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
::::::It is a reference to the common practice and stereotype of anything with a large and obsessed enough fan-base. That seems specific enough to me to be a reference. A reference to a common real-world practice still qualifies as a real-world reference IMO. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 21:56, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
:::::::"Common practice" and "stereotype" are the opposite of specific. If we're speaking about fan bases in general then we're not being specific. Fun facts that fit the form "Real-life group X did action Y at place Z" are real-world references. Fun facts that fit the form "The H*R characters are doing action X for reason Y" are explanations. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:48, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
::::::::It still is a reference, as a referance in [[magic trick]] has the following: "Strong Bad claiming he will stand on Bubs' Concession stand for six days is a parody of endurance artists, most notably David Blaine." Obviously, David Blaine is not the only one doing it, and there are many more referances as such, therefore, if you must take action on this edit, give an example, not a deletion. And another thing, as there are many fake practices in the Homestar Runner universe (e.g. water ballon lawsuits), it'd be a good idea to mention the reality of this particular practice, and not assume that "everyone knows this". That defeats the purpose of this Wiki. ...So, may I please have my edit back? Please? {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 23:23, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::Everything up to "most notably David Blaine" is an explanation. That last clause is what pushes it to be a reference. In the case of fans camping out, there's no one example that is any more notable than another. The reason we have a threshold for explanations is that if we explained ''everything'', our articles would be overrun with information the vast majority of people already know, and it's poor form to explain the joke. The question is, do we really think people are out there who are watching this toon and completely not getting it? (Note, I'm talking about a sizeable chunk of the intended audience; I'm not concerned with those one or two people who never get anything.) The fact should not be replaced until more people have had a chance to weigh in. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:01, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

== It WAS new, wasn't it? ==

Why was this never featured on the "What's New?" Menu on the front page? I found it by accident suspecting something like the "not email 100" thing was available. Also, don't these qualify for being secret pages? {{User:NFITC1/sig}} 17:19, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

== Name change from "Page Load Error" to "NOT the 200th Email!"?! ==

I remember that the sbemail teaser page for email 100 was called "NOT the 100th Email!", should we do the same here?

:Nope. You have to get it when it comes out. Think about it: if you could claim transcripts in advance, what if you were sleeping when the toon you claimed was released? The wiki'd have to wait for you to wake up. Wiki doesn't wait that long, I'm afraid. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:38, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

==The Perplexing Typo==
The question "Did you grandma?" appears to be a typo of either "Did your grandma?" or "Did you, grandma?", however, there is no way to tell which. Apparently that's not all this increadible typo could mean, so I need your help: What does it mean, and should it be a Fun Fact? {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 01:40, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
:I assume simplicity. It means "Did you grandma?" and no, there's no real point in putting this in the facts section. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 01:52, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
::It's random crap, which is so commonplace in Homestar Runner cartoons that it's not worth noting. Besides, unless you can read either Matt or Mike Chapman's mind, we'll never know whether it was intended that way or a typo. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 03:13, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

It's not just you...And I haven't been able to get much of anything else on the website to load. Has homestarrunner.com been slashdotted?? :( [[Special:Contributions/76.114.174.169|76.114.174.169]] 14:38, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Simone named That Guy Over There claimed that it was already listed. Me no see where. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 13:41, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
:It's under [[Page Load Error#See Also|"See Also"]]. {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 13:54, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
::You'll also notice in the Remarks section it says, "This toon, similar to Not the 100th Email!!!, uses the URL 'sbemail200', while the real 200th email has an irregular URL like flashback's." {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 16:34, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
:::"See also" refers to toons of simmalar subject, I mean, the relationship between the two is stronger than this toon and SBemail 150?!?. It's like "Fast Forward"... only "Rewind". {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 20:24, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
::::There's really no point. That'd be like saying that every Puppet Stuff toon is a successor to the last one. The connection to "Not the 100th Email!!!" is pretty obvious and it's already been stated. Beyond that, the fact that the toons are similar doesn't make this one the "successor" to the previous one. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 23:29, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
