Current revision as of 08:44, 7 April 2010

The timing on this episode was off some.

I did not feel that the killings were quite so fast and/or random as in past episodes. -James

you have to admit, it's pretty fresh. and tompkin's "death" (whether he comes back or not, you can't tell with tgs) was hilarious. - evil tom nook

I thought the part where cheerleader was squished was hilarious. -Kevin "Shut it off!

[edit] Metallica???

*At the end Cheerleader's shirt says Coolier than Thou,
which is a reference to Metallica's Holier than Thou.

Metallica did not invent the phrase "Holier than thou", so how is this a specific ref to Metallica? - Drhaggis 13:43, 19 Sep 2004 (MST)

It must not be a reference then. I removed it. -- Tom 13:55, 19 Sep 2004 (MST)

[edit] I had a question...

When the guy on the slide killed Cheerleader, why did SB sound like he was eating something and then mumbled "squished" like his mouth was full?

How does Strong Bad type with boxing gloves on? There are a lot of random things on Homestar Runner, and this is one of them. -- FireBird

Maybe he was eating.--Hysterical Woman 18:53, 4 Oct 2004 (MST)

Okay then... It's one of those odd things he does that makes it funnier, I guess... --favetvshows1x3 18:54, 4 Oct 2004 (MST)

I thought that he was making those sounds because he couldn't think of what to say. --69.81.102.162 13:30, 13 Oct 2004 (MST)

I think it's the sound effect of the big fat guy coming down the slide. --Upsilon

I think it has to do with SB trying to clear his throat after doing the high-pitched teeny tiny girl voices.

Woah.. The Sound of Fat.. This could be the new Broadway musical hit! I'll make hundreds! Elcool (talk)(contribs) 03:38, 21 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Wow, that's pretty good. We should cut a solo album! I could be your manager! I'll make millions! Robert Benedicio

You'll do no such thing! It is I who shall come out the thousandaire!

[edit] Mrs Commanderson

What are the lyrics to that song, anyway? I can't make 'em out.

Mrs Commanderson, she's some kind of bird reptile, and she....?

The Easter Egg has now been transcribed. Have a nice day. --Upsilon

Actually, another thing I noticed is that the blocks next to the girls say "SD" which is an anime reference meaning "super deformed". It's used to describe when the normal characters go into tiny versions of themselves for comic relief. Coincidence?

[edit] What's Her Face

It said in the article that Cheerleader was the only one to die and return in the same episode. But didn't What's Her Face die when Mrs. Commander..son dropped her? Can someone change this? I'm scared that it might somehow be wrong and then I'll be trolling.-Alice

[edit] Closed STUFF

[edit] SD - Strong Dad? Could be

While So and So and The Ugly One were playing Pattycake, the two blocks on the ground had an "S" and a "D" in that order. In anime this stands for "Super deformed," and this accurately describes the style of these characters.

[edit] Angelica?

Maybe it's just me, but Cheerleader's showing off to the others and calling them 'kiddos' seems similar to Angelica's attitude in Rugrats. AK47x2 20:27, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
