Fire

From Homestar Runner Wiki

I also really like fake fire of any kind.

— Mike Chapman, HOW Magazine Interview

Things in the Homestar Runner universe have a tendency to catch or be set on fire, usually thanks to Strong Bad and The Cheat. Trogdor also enjoys burninating the countryside, the peasants, and the thatched-roof cottages.
