| - | + | The '''Quote of the Week''' is a sound bite from the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] body of work. These are found by clicking on the ''Q'' at the top of the [[Main Pages]], and were generally updated each week on Thursday when Homestar Runner was more active. Here is a list of all Quotes of the Week collected since this feature started on January 10, 2002, under the name "Quote of the day". From early 2004 to 2009, the Quote of the Week was updated with more regularity. For some time before then, the quote of the week was a "[[Main Page Messages|what's new?]]" oval button. The dates of some quotes are estimated on the basis of the file-modified date. | |

As of the November 22 quote, however, the download option appears to only be as a straight MP3, and The Brothers Chaps appear to be deleting each quote of the week as soon as the next one is released.'' |
:''Quotes after November 11, 2004 are transcribed on the website. Directly saving and opening the [[HR:qod.swf|Flash file]] produces some odd results; the standard Homestar image will appear along with a default message, as shown on the right.'' | :''Quotes after November 11, 2004 are transcribed on the website.

| - | | | + | | This is the [[YouTube:YOohAwZOSGo|trailer]] version of a line spoken by Anton Chigurh, the antagonist in the 2007 film ''{{w|No Country for Old Men (film)|No Country for Old Men}}'', who was portrayed by {{wp|Javier Bardem}}. The line is actually a combination of two lines from the same scene. As Chigurh visits a filling station, he says to the proprietor, "What business is it of yours where I'm from, friendo?" Later in the scene, he allows the proprietor to choose his fate by a coin toss but only tells him to call it and doesn't say "friendo" again. The [[Halloween Safety]] teaser and the [[Sketchbook 2014#SK-2014-10-30|Sketchbook released the same day]] as the quote revealed that [[The Brothers Chaps]] were considering making Marzipan dress as Chigurh for [[I Killed Pom Pom]]. |
