| - | == Strong Sad's pronunciation ==
| |
| - |
| |
| - | It sounds to me like the way Strong Sad delivers his last line is in, like, a faux french accent. Is that notable for this page? Further, it seems like he has a tendency to do this (like "chap au fan" or whatever in funeral, for example, I think there are others..) Should that be a running gag/page?mention somewhere/etc?

Before adding the fact I first checked in [[Homestar Runner Other Costumes]] and the most bare he was was with V-neck costumes like [[:Image:HR poncho.PNG|this one]].

| - | ==Larry The Legend==
| |
| - | Thought I'd post my explanation here and let you duke it out if it's legit or not. I had an entry that was deleted, guessing that "Gary the Legend" is a reference to Larry Zbyszko, aka "The Living Legend." Now, while the deleter said that the "legend" thing was tenuous at best (which I'd sort of agree with if that was a problem), I mainly made the association because of the rhyming aspect. Such as "Gary the Legend" and "Larry the Legend" (as Zbyszko is sometimes called). Is this too much of a stretch? (Also, I guess to add to this train of thought, when "Legend" is mentioned in pro wrestling, many times it refers to Larry Zbyszko. If I recall correctly, he once filed a lawsuit against Randy Orton for calling himself "The Legend Killer" ... "Legend" being the part of the nickname that he felt was trademarked.) --- El Santo

| |
