Opinion

In actuallity, I thought this e-mail was pretty funny. Or maybe I'm just like... pathetic. -- FireBird

I liked this email, i don't see why everybody hates it Sbdisciples

No name votes for Tapeleg goodness

At some point you'll notice that Strong Bad is static in his method of email jokes. It gets to the point where you can guess when he'll start sputtering excuses...or meandering into funny words...or listing-his-humor-with-hyphens-conjunctions-and-ellipses...

There was a point when Strong Bad truly did have pizzaz and not the mummification factor of the Simpsons. "The basics" was another one of those emails where it thrived alone; but those days are gone, baby, their greatest tenstiments unappriciated.

I don't think this is worst SBEmail...I think that honor would go to "some kinda robot". But maybe that's just me.

I always liked "some kinda robot" a wholeloattabunch. It has a robot in it, it has "for good or for awesome" in it. Classic. Tape leg is very uninspired. - Dr Haggis - Talk 01:01, 16 Feb 2005 (MST)

I think that "best thing" the worst email- i really didn't like that one.

You didn't like best thing? That's one of the best.

virus is the best. 12:00 is the worst

More Opinions

I think this email isn't too bad. The reason it's funny is that Strong Bad so vigorously denies being a tape-leg, you get the idea that... maybe he is a tape-leg? And of course it inspired a lot of references. --195.92.67.77 18:07, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

This email is just fine. You want to know what the worst email is? I'll tell you what it's: dreamail. That was one rotten pile of crap.—S*R 01:00, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
Three weeks after I made my comment, TBC gave me another email to mock: road trip. That email lacked so much humor and was comprised of so many forced moments that I almost cried.—S*R 22:49, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Tape-Leg Strong Bad Figurine

What if they have finally made a Homestarrunner Figurine of Strong Bad with tape on his leg? -Viklas 11:08, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Halloweener?

Is is just me, or when homestar (dressed as Strong Bad) gets his legs DUCT TAPED in the email halloweener, it sparks the image of this email? OpenSourceGreg 12:15, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

I don't think that's relevant, and I think it's a serious stretch. MichaelXX2 mail_icon.gif link_icon.gif 20:35, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
In one of the few emails released before this one, Strong Bad includes tape-leg in his Halloween costume. How is that not relevant? I've never noticed it before, but it doesn't seem like a stretch. Nicolas's brothers could've seen the email and assumed Strong Bad was some kind of tape-leg. Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 05:18, 19 September 2017 (UTC)

Claimant

On the YouTube video, user Nicolas Velilla is claiming he sent the video. He claims "I had asked why strong bad gave instructions to wrap your legs in tape when he was using homestar to demonstrate how to make a strong bad halloween costume. they told 10 year old me it was because his legs were made of tape". This is from halloweener. Wolf O'Donnel 07:27, 16 February 2020 (UTC)
