== Biography ==

'''Strong Bad''' is one of the most well-known characters on [[Homestar Runner (flash cartoon)|HomestarRunner.com]]. He answers [[Strong Bad Email |e-mails]] with a passion, usually every Monday or Tuesday. He will [[Spelling|make fun]] of your grammar, punctuation, and spelling, but doesn't seem to be worried about his own.  He's [[Strong Sad]]'s big brother and [[Strong Mad]]'s little brother. His name was probably taken from a Nintendo wrestling game "Tag Team Pro Wrestling" where the team of bad wrestlers whom he resembles is called the "Strong Bads."  His is the dominant personality and he loves to push everyone around: he's often ridiculing Strong Sad, abusing [[Homestar Runner|Homestar]], kicking [[The Cheat]], or prank-calling [[Marzipan]]. He has boxing gloves for hands (that always have square window reflections on them, no matter where he is), a Mexican wrestling mask for a head, and it is confirmed that the mask IS actually his head in [http://members.shaw.ca/kevinscott/Homestar/page5.html this interview]. His favorite saying is (or was for a time) "holy crap." He hates to be asked "[[How Do You Type With Boxing Gloves On?|Hey, Strong Bad, how do you type with boxing gloves on?]]". He usually does what he does best when he gets an e-mail like that: '''[[DELETED|DELETED!!!]]''' The blue diamond on his face also gives him the power to mentally open [[Cold One]]s and even pop Homestar's hat off his head. Strong Bad owns his own country: [[Strongbadia]], a barren field behind the dumpster that is completely devoid of any sentient life.

He fancies himself as a criminal mastermind, and totally popular with the ladies, though there is little evidence of this latter claim, and even [[lures & jigs|admits]] on accident at one point that he doesn't really know anything about the ladies. He has delusions of grandeur about how much Marzipan likes him when she really doesn't like him at all.  He seems to have a grudge against [[The Birds|birds]], as shown in issues of [[Teen Girl Squad]]. He also loves to listen to Peter Frampton, [[Limozeen]] and [[Taranchula]]. His favorite show is [[Caleb Rentpayer]].

Strong Bad has sung many hit singles, his most popular being "[[Everybody to the Limit]]". He also stars as the protagonist in the blockbuster action series "[[Dangeresque]]". He works with Homestar at an unnamed tech company, though despite this fixed income, he seems to have financial troubles as he often attempts money making solutions of questionable legitimacy and burns his bills with his BMW lighter. Strong Bad is somewhat prejudiced; he has been banned from the UK, and often ridicules Eastern Europeans on their e-mails. He also hates children and old people.
