Feel free to edit this article. It's in my user space because the idea isn't developed enough or coherent enough to be a good stub yet. I wanted to go ahead and jot some things down so I don't forget them.

In the continuity of Homestar Runner, it's often unclear if things are made up or really happen. Occasionally, something that starts out as obviously made-up becomes real.

  • Trogdor was drawn by Strong Bad in the email dragon and then appeared outside Strong Bad's window in Trogday 08.
  • When introduced in animal, the Lappy 486 was a he. In dreamail, Strong Bad imagined it as a she, and she's been that way ever since.
  • When Strong Bad listed Limozeen and Taranchula in band names, it was implied that he was making them up on the spot (indeed, that's what TBC were doing), not listing bands that already existed in the Homestar Runner universe.
  • Senor Cardgage was just a creepy comb-over version of Strong Bad until Senor Mortgage came along.
  • In army, The Cheat dressed up as Firebert, a character he most likely made up. This later started the Cheat Commandos, an actual television show in Free Country.
  • 20X6 was originally made up by Strong Bad to describe himself as an anime. It has since taken on a life of its own and was shown to be real in alternate universe.
