Fun Facts
Trivia
- "Strong Bad did a jig while holding all the grapes and The Cheat learned to fly" was mentioned in a Quote of the Week, in which the quote is actually spoken by Strong Bad (from the DVD Easter egg for the email kids' book).
Remarks
- Strong Bad says that he made "milk's meat" out of Homestar and Pom-Pom, but he probably means "mince meat."
- The Blue Knight in Peasant's Quest also used the phrase "milk's meat" when talking about Kerrek.
Goofs
- Strong Bad misspells the word "commode" as "comode."
Inside References
- The name "Strumstar" could be from Coach Z Talker where one of Coach Z's wrong word for Homestar was "Stramstar".
- One of the car's sounds, "breeeow!", is a slight variation on The Paper's onomatopoeia, which is "preeeeow."
Real-World References
- Strong Bad mentions the "original line-up of The Beatles," plus "Watch out PETE BEST!" Pete Best was the original drummer for The Beatles, replaced early on by Ringo Starr.
- The title "Strumstar Hammer" most likely refers to both strumming and hammer-ons, respectively. Both of these are basic guitar techniques.
