Random Toon Button
This button was added to the main page alongside Quote of the Week, Weekly Fanstuff, and Sketchbook on September 12, 2005. It loads a random Toon, Strong Bad Email, Marzipan's Answering Machine, or Teen Girl Squad. If you don't like the selection it comes up with, you can press the "again" button on the left side of the box before you are redirected, which will restart the selection process. You can also press the "close" button on the right of the box to abort the selection.
Decemberween Puppet Style and Homestar vs. Little Girl (the two Decemberween In July puppet toons) are not currently included in the random list, although there is a comment in the XML file reminding The Brothers Chaps to add them.
random.bat
A similar button was also added to the top right of the Strong Bad Email menu on September 9, 2005, labeled "random.bat". Pressing it causes the menu to select several random emails in sequence. When it is done, it loads the last random email it picked. Strong Bad says one of several things:
- STRONG BAD: Brrrrrrakatakatakataka...ta..ka...tick...tick... Brring!
- STRONG BAD: {higher pitched and louder} Lakalakalakalaka... tuck... tuck... tuck... tuck... {low pitched} Bong.
- STRONG BAD: How 'bout this one? Donk. {a random email is then picked without a roulette of emails}
- STRONG BAD: Brooootakatakataka..ta..ka..ta...ka... Doosh.
Navigation Bar
The random toon button was also added to the navigation bar at the bottom of every page. It reads "rando". It doesn't show the roulette box, simply jumping straight to another toon. Thus far, this has not been added to the special navbars of Main Page 22 or virus.

- SBEMAIL: lady...ing takes you to sbemail405.html.
