Head with Bat wings
I think the connection between the image on Strong Bad's post-it and the Bubbles from Legend of Zelda is a bit flimsy. Heads with batwings arent exactly a unique occurance (D&D's Vargouille being a flagrant example) Ghilz 01:25, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
- But it's very close to the Legend of Zelda one, as seen at this link: [1] (look for "bubble"). The fact that both are skulls helps too. --DorianGray
- If you go on the IRC, you will find out that I am a huge Zelda fan. It looks almost exactly like a bubble, all it needs is a creepy aura. Rogue Leader / (my talk) 01:47, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
- My point isnt that it does NOT look like a Bubble, I know it does, my point is that it looks like countless otherflyingskulls; My point is, how can you be SURE it is a reference (as in, that the Brothers Chap meant it as such) to Bubble and not simply a depiction of something that already appears in culture generally? I dont disagree that it does resemble a bubble, but I want to point out it also resembles so many things, its seems arbitrary to 'pick one' as being the actual source of inspiration Ghilz 00:30, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
- Well, it may have been chosen due to the fact that the Chaps are known Nintendo fans. --DorianGray
- Take another look. The other skulls are in a variety of poses, but the original Ocarina of Time official art Blue Bubble looks IDENTICAL to the strong bad skull, Square teeth, diagonal angle, small bat wings in that precise pose, glowing eyes sunken into sockets. It's indisputable.

non-NPOV Fun Fact
- at the beginning, he should say "so few good emails" (Though this is, perhaps, an intentional error, playing on the expectation that he was about to say "so little time.")
This is non-NPOV—66.31.174.112 14:33, 10 Dec 2004 (MST)
- I agree, this is very poorly worded. I think I understand the writer's intent, but this certainly is a "non-NPOV linguistic prescriptivism". I'm thinking the part about the expression "So many [insert something here], so little time" might be worth a mention though. -- Tom 16:04, 10 Dec 2004 (MST)
- This is NPOV. It's a grammatical issue; because "emails" is a plural noun, "few" is the correct word and saying "so little good emails" isn't correct. --Upsilon
- A few seconds later he gets twisted up grammatically again. "More... more better". This isn't a good day for SB. --GregHosting 23:47, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
