Well, I feel like it should be STUFF'D at least for being phrased as a question. Maybe I'll do that in a moment. In addition, I know that those phrases are famous, but I'm not sure they were used collectively in any speech. I think they may just be clichès of hard times. But I don't know for sure. --[[User:Vannav|Vannav]] 18:30, 29 Nov 2004 (EST)

That Huuuudge looks like something off batman I saw... dont know when though...

Lure...?

I couldn't help thinking that maybe the Fangly Fish's lure should have been something that attracts other fish... Not scares them away.

Civil Rights Speech?

  • I believe the line "It is a time of desolation, chaos and uncertainty. Brother pitted against brother; babies havin' babies." comes from a famous speech made by someone during the Civil Rights movement, but I don't remember the exact one. Does anyone know?
    • It reminds me of Ghostbusters ... "Dogs and cats living together..."

About this Fun Fact: I'm not contesting it or recommending it for STUFF, but a quick Google search turned up nuffin. Anyone have an idea? --[[User:Southpaw018|Southpaw018|talk]] 16:12, 29 Nov 2004 (MST)

The "brother against brother" part is a cliche American Civil War line, the rest, I'm not too sure about. - Dr Haggis - Talk 17:05, 29 Nov 2004 (MST)

Yeah, I certainly couldn't find anything regarding the Civil Rights movement that involved this quote. I've removed it from the page. I also didn't like how it read "might possibly have come from a famous speech...but not for certain." Though as noted by Drhaggis, the "brother pitted against brother" part is common of American Civil War discussions. -- Tom 22:00, 29 Nov 2004 (MST)

Subject Lines, etc.

  • This is the first email in which we are shown the subject line. Also, this is the first email to have all the functions of a real email program (reply button, forward button, subject display), except for weird dream.

We might have to wait until next week, but these could just be new features of the Lappy. So, is this a fun fact? (I'll copy it over to STUFF, so please reply there.) --oddtodd 21:25, 29 Nov 2004 (MST)

Horns

  • Not sure where to put this, but I noticed that one of the characteristics Strong Bad lists of his creature is "horns," but the picture shows antlers, which are completely different from horns.

Also, the creature doesn't have power doors. ;) FireLily
