Does Strong Bad's use of the word "hork" require a reference to its origin (''The Adventures of Bob & Doug McKenzie: Strange Brew'', 1983) or has it passed sufficiently into the vernacular to stand on its own? --[[User:Darksasami|Darksasami]] 08:58, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Flintstones

Does anyone else think that the sound made by the group when they are running to Marzipan's party is ripped off from the Flinstones? Or is that a generic "cartoon running" noise ? -- Tony Stony 20:33, 29 May 2005 (UTC) Deleted:

  • Marzipan's guitar has an M on it instead of the word "Carol".
    • That's because the intrument isn't Carol but a Ukulele.

  • This was obviously made before A Jorb Well Done, so why is it higher on the list on the Toons Menu? Shouldn't it be lower? Poopsmith Z

Closed STUFF

Reference? (DECLINED)

In the beggining of the toon, when Homestar is "standing behind the gazebo", may be a reference to "A Jumping Jack Contest".

  • If it is a reference, then it's just accepted, but since there is no reference, it's DECLINE ALL THE WAY, scalawag My jingle says it all. THERE IS NO REFERENCE I CAN SEE AT ALL! YES, I MUST YELL! JEEZ! Cheatachu72 14:35, 22 May 2005 (UTC)Cheatachu72
  • Whaatever happened to.... Declination? It used to be so cooooooooool! EDY-innit 14:52, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
  • A Simple Decline - No, there is no connection. Simple as that. Actually, Rewrite. After thinking about it, there is a slight similarity, (Hence the fact that Homestar was drinking a lot more Melonade than he should and ended up having to use the bathroom), but it's really no reference. It just basically tells you that Homestar has a problem with over-drinking. Reword it not as a reference, but as a character trait. SaikoRoxi 8:28 PM, 23 May 2005
  • Decline Actually, there IS a similarity (think about it!) but not enough for me to call it a "reference". --Jay (Talk) 15:40, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Decline Nah. Donny vs Universe
  • Decline - I dunno how this is a "reference"...is it just because Homestar is releaving himself in both? I don't get the connection -- Tony Stony 18:22, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
    • I'm not supporting this fact, but I want to clue you in on the similarity. What do you think Homestar is DOING behind the gazebo? That makes the wood not light later on and had to do with melonades? --Jay (Talk) 22:28, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
      • Gotcha, and I stand by my decline -- Tony Stony 22:14, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Rewrite. Now that Jay has cleared it up, I know what was meant by the above Fun Fact. It just needs to be reworded in a way that makes sense. (I.e. Homestar drinking several glasses of melonade may be a reference to A Jumping Jack Contest.) Though we're never actually told in The Luau that Homestar urinated on all the logs that Strong Bad tried to light, it is obvious if you pay close attention. --Upset_Your_Balance 18:30, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment There's not enough for a reference. That's like saying that The poopsmith shovels crap is a reference to another time he shoveled crap.Cheatachu72 15:55, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC) (This would be a decline, but I've already voted)


The Whatever

A luau is a type of feast prominent in Hawaiian culture. It consists primarily of traditional Polynesian song and dance and the eating of an ethnic paste called poi, as well as roasting pork and salmon over an open rotisserie. Since Marzipan is a vegetarian, however, she instead roasts a slab of tofu.

Unexpected guests?

In Strong Bad's marshmallow roast, he was seen with 16 name tags. Yet, at the time, only 11 characters existed, and even if Homsar did, there would still be too many. Also, Strong Sad and Marzipan were at the luau, and the KOT was uninvited, so only eight tags were used, (Unless someone wasn't wearing one).

Hork, eh?

Does Strong Bad's use of the word "hork" require a reference to its origin (The Adventures of Bob & Doug McKenzie: Strange Brew, 1983) or has it passed sufficiently into the vernacular to stand on its own? --Darksasami 08:58, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
