He is [[Mike Chapman]]'s favorite character in the entire Homestar Runner body of work.  Mike thinks he's a lot smarter and more aware of what's going on than modern-day Homestar. But Mike's dead wrong, The Homestar Runner isn't able to either hear or understand others very well, and responds with a flat "What?" to other characters who try to converse with him. Like his modern day counterpart, he frequently mispronounces words, saying "accumulated" as "acoomalated" and "Communist" as "Commonest".

This article is about the old-timey character. For the storybook world character, see The Homestar Runner (storybook).
"Go soak your fat head."

The Homestar Runner is the Old-Timey version of Homestar Runner. His primary interest is in finding something to eat with Old-Timey Marzipan and Fat Dudley during the Great Depression. He is frequently pitted against Old-Timey Strong Bad, who is typically unsuccessful at foiling The Homestar Runner's efforts.

The Homestar Runner can play "a mean worshboard" and appears to have incredible aim when firing a spitball out of a straw; he was able to peg Stinkoman in the eye from a great distance in 20X6 vs. 1936. He has also been kicking an old Can of Water Soup around ever since his dog "worshed" away in the storm of '28. While he seems to like most of the characters he meets, he dislikes Sickly Sam (their "worst friend") and Rumble Red, whom he labels a "Communist fool", and even killed him with the help of Old-Timey Marzipan and an invention.

The Homestar Runner apparently managed to call Marzipan using an empty soup can and a length of twine in Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 13.2, even though he exists in a different era than modern-day Marzipan.

Head shot straight-on.
