Coach Z and Bubs
- email narrator — Strong Bad refers to them as "old men".
- email caffeine — Coach Z refers to himself as "an old man".
- Fall Float Parade (Easter egg) — Homestar Runner calls Bubs "Old Mr. Bubs".
- email isp — Strong Bad calls Bubs "Old Man Bubs".
- email what I want and Decemberween Short Shorts — Coach Z's visage is featured on an ornament from 1974.
Homestar Runner
- Homestar recalls getting 22 butt pats from Coach Z in 1984 (trading cards), so he must have been alive at that time.
- In the sbemail highschool, Homestar was older than all of the characters that appeared as babies.
Marzipan
- In the Lil' Strong Bad video in stand-up, Coach Z mentions "Little Marzipan", implying that Marzipan and Strong Bad are around the same age. Coach Z, meanwhile, is full-sized, indicating that he is substantially older than Strong Bad.
Strong Bad
- Strong Bad is older than Strong Sad (depressio; different town; lady...ing) but younger than Strong Mad (the facts).
- Strong Bad and Strong Sad were kids at the same time, so they are probably close in age (The Secrets That I Keep).
- In the email stand-up, Lil' Strong Bad is shown to be younger than Coach Z.
- Since Strong Bad often refers to doing things in 1987, such as checking what Japanese cartoons are called (TrogdorCon '97), he was presumably born before this.
- Yet, in the photograph from the email 2 years, he does not look that much older than he does today, even though said photograph dates from 1987.
- The email looking old is about Strong Bad's attempts to stay relevant to a younger audience. He never states his exact age however.
Strong Mad
- Strong Mad is oldest of The Brothers Strong.
Strong Sad
- Strong Sad is the youngest of The Brothers Strong.
- According to boring (really), Strong Sad was not yet born in 1916.
- looking old (released January 22, 2007) hints that Strong Sad is between 18 and 24 years old.
The King of Town
- In the email space program, The King of Town claims to be "in [his] sixties".
- In Halloween Potion-ma-jig, The King of Town said that he buried his sandwich when he was nine.
Teen Girl Squad
- In Issue 5, Cheerleader claims that they are in college, while So And So claims that they are in 8th grade. It is implied that Cheerleader is lying.
- In Issue 3, Strong Bad states that the Teen Girl Squad are between the ages of 13 and 19.
- In Issue 9, What's Her Face claims to have had her driver's license for over a year. Given that American teenagers get their license around age 16, this would put What's Her Face around the age of 17.
Trogdor and Stinkoman
- As seen in Happy Trogday, Trogdor's birthday is the day that dragon debuted (January 13, 2003), making him 21 years old. Likewise, Stinkoman's birthday is the day that japanese cartoon debuted (January 6, 2003), possibly making him 21 years old.
