Of course it's real! It says so right there in the title bar!

Many times, objects are specifically (and often awkwardly) described as real or actual when it's plainly obvious that they are not.

Examples

  • Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 6.0Strong Bad insists that his girlfriend is real, over and over again.
  • Email credit card — The writers of the email "promise that [they] are real and not just trying to steal [Strong Bad's] money."
  • Email 50 emailsHomestar Runner posts a fake error message after crashing the Compy 386. The error message's title bar reads "This is real."
  • Email autobiography — Strong Bad specifically notes that the description of his alleged girlfriend was a true part.
  • Email technology (Easter egg) — Bubs advertises wireless extensions cords as being "lightweight, existent, and shockproof!"
  • Decemberween Short ShortsCoach Z tells Homestar Runner that he's having "all kinds of real people over to [his] house for a coupla real people parties."
  • Email diorama — Strong Bad's book, a "real book that exists", is allegedly written by "Ronmartin Realdude" (who insists that he is "a living, breathing person, not a cat") and printed by the "Actual Publishing Company". Coach Z talks to "Ronmartin Realdude" via a notepad with a cell phone drawn on it.
