Current revision as of 01:41, 31 July 2009
That Time of Year is a featured article, which means it showcases an important part of the Homestar Runner body of work and/or highlights the fine work of this wiki. We also might just think it's cool. If you see a way this page can be updated or improved without compromising previous work, feel free to contribute. |

[edit] Martini - First overt alcohol reference?
- Does the downloadable Strong Bad screensaver that advertises "Strong Beer: Alcoholic Cold Ones" count?
- What about Coach Z's "Coldson Lite" in the sbemail 'Labor Day'?
- And what about on http://www.thoraxcorp.com where on the staph page it says, "hear their drunken ramblings"?
[edit] SB's FIXING Southern Charm
- Given that the Brothers Chaps are from Atlanta, its probably not intentional.
- It could also explain why he thinks Southern Accents are hot.
- No wonder Strong Bad has a mexican accent!
- Well, he used to, I think he's grown out of it.
- "Southern" is totally different from "Mexican". I assume this whole Mexican Wrestling thing had more to do with it, prime example probably being Marshmallow's Last Stand.
- No wonder Strong Bad has a mexican accent!
- It could also explain why he thinks Southern Accents are hot.
[edit] The Magic Hate Ball
The "Fun Fact" below was removed from the page. Although an in-article editorial by Douglas was out of place on the main page and should have been placed here, he was correct in saying that this is a huge stretch. The Orb of Aldur is just one more magic rock that the fantasy genre is overflowing with. Why can't this just be a common crystal ball? One that burnsss usss, precioussssss... Render
The "magic ball" page is possibly a reference to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belgariad Belgariad] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Malloreon Malloreon] book series, in which a magic orb (the "Orb of Aldur") burns out the face and left hand of an evil character who takes advantage of the orb's power.
[edit] Keying
Does anybody notice that in the store scenes, when Strong Bad draws over it, the man unlocking his car door now looks like he just keyed the car.
- Yeah, I've noticed that. It seems a little awkward/irrelevant/minor to put in the transcript, though. --DorianGray
[edit] When and Where?
When was this made and where is it on the site? Retromaniac 22:19, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
- December 12, 2004 and Decemberween In July. TheYellowDart—(t/c)
[edit] Trodgor Reference
Since Trogdor can be seen on the wall in the Martinis part, shouldn't this page fall into the Trogdor Filmography Category? --Pants 3000 23:28, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
- Was Trogdor in the film? Put another way, if a photo of Robert DeNiro is seen in a film, is he in the cast? - Qermaq - (T/C) 23:56, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Guess who that voice sounds like
"The voiceover reading the original book sounds uncannily like Mike Chapman. " Do we reallly need that fact? I'm guessing quite a few of the voices on the site sound similar to one of TBC or the other, for certain reasons that I think you will understand. -132.183.140.154 01:41, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
