I hate hushpuppies.

In Strong Bad's world of old technology, he appears to love some of his technological implements, namely his computers as well as The Paper, enough so that he treats them as though they were human beings. He refers to the Lappy 486 as having body parts, as well as speaking to both it and the Compy 386 and Tandy 400 as if he were talking to any other character. He is also able to carry out conversation with The Paper.

Strong Bad is not the only one to treat technology as human. The members of the Homestarmy consider Frank Benedetto to be a real member, and to have truly died in the Battle of Strong Badia.
