DNA Evidence
Is this easter egg more evidence that TBC read the wiki?— Bassbone (TALK

- How so? They make the running gags, not us. My own speculation is that this will ultimately end in email 173 with something happening to The Paper. Or maybe in 175. —BazookaJoe 07:10, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, but the fact that in this email Homestar seems almost resigned to saying it leads me to believe that they've figured out we've been looking for it. Or perhaps it's there because they realized they've been putting DNA evidence into every email and they're making fun of themselves. I was just speculating, that's all. No need to jump down my throat.— Bassbone (TALK

- Not trying to jump down your throat. It would probably be really unhealthy anyways. They've got a great thread going on the Forum about this, if you want to add your voice to the mix. Seems like most people think that this will culminate with sbemail 173. Personally though, I don't know how TBC could accidentally go 5 emails in a row with unconsciously writing DNA evidence into them. —BazookaJoe 07:36, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

- Something about that windy sound and Homestar's sigh of resignation, combined with the strange non-sequitur and the suburban comfort of Marzipan's sofa reminded me of the scary moments in David Lynch's movies, particularly the recent Inland Empire. Anyone else here see a connection? Henebry 15:33, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
Maybe he's just desperate at finding a way to fit in DNA Evidence. 71.231.56.40 16:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
Strong Sad being somewhat violent upon Strong Bad...
Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but is this the first time that Strong Sad has ever been violent upon Strong Bad? - Ren Foxx 08:04, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- He did join the Homestarmy... But this is the first act of actual violence, according to Strong Bad and Strong Sad's Relationship.
- He also yelled at Strong Bad and Strong Mad in Experimental Film. Not physical violence, but close. 0rion 11:27, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- Actual physical violence was what I was looking for. Thanks! - Ren Foxx 15:10, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Preloader?
Is it just me, or does this toon not have a preloader? Might be worth watching to see if this changes. »Blendage t.c :: 10:31, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, you mean the Loading screen? There's one in the Flash file, but you're right, it's not used. This happened recently in another toon, but I don't remember which one offhand....

- It was your funeral, I think. —Shwoo 10:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, that's the one — good call. Trey56 10:38, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- The script for frame 1 simply says
ifFrameLoaded(15) gotoAndPlay(16);
. I assume that TBC simply forgot to subsitute 15 for a frame number that makes more sense. Loafing

- Nope, there's definitely a loading screen. I distinctly remember it taking a longer-than-usual time to load. Ppk01 12:53, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Strong Sad: Executive Lawyer?
Is Strong Sad's lawyer alter-ego part of the Rough Copy TV Show sequence, or is that really his profession? Strong Sader 12:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- The scene with Strong Sad the lawyer was after the Rough Copy opening credits, so I don't think it was part of it. It might be his profession, but he was a temp in the last email. —Shwoo 12:49, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
Todd Goldman
Does anyone think that this toon is a reference to the Todd Goldman copyright infringement accusations? It's been getting a lot of attention in the webcomic community. Here's a link that explains what happened and links to a lot of the responses. --Maxamegalon2000 13:30, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- After looking through that SomethingAwful thread, you're probably right on this. Would it be safe to put this as a Remark or a Real-World References? - Ren Foxx 15:25, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
Easter Egg Goof
Did no one notice that goof at the end when you click on the candy bar? Strong Bad's left cheek and his arm freak out when he backs away from Senor Cartgage! That's the kind of thing TBC will probably fix within a day or so, it's painfully obvious. -- Abelhawk 13:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, I did notice that. --

Sam & Max
The action-packed credit sequence reminded me of the "pleasantly understated credit sequence" in Sam & Max Hit the Road, especially the music... is it a possible reference? ShiversTheNinja 16:34, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
SB2O versus Sb2O
The current explanation states that the SB2O drink is diantimony oxide. This would be Sb2O, not "SB2O" (as the drink bottle labels clearly state), which would be a mixture of one sulphur atom, two boron atoms and an oxygen atom. I think this needs to be corrected. Jimmy91 17:16, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- No, the bottle has "B" insted of "b" so no change.
