Revision as of 15:59, 29 December 2015
Some of the YouTube versions of Homestar Runner toons parody the Related Video Thumbnails commonly found in popular videos. Nine fake thumbnails for other videos appear at the official end of the toon, in order to give the effect that the video has ended, after which the Easter eggs are displayed automatically. None of the "videos" shown in the thumbnails have been released as of yet.
