hey strong bad, help us come up with a name for our band. i was thinking about 'invisible robot fish' or 'for good or for awesome.' hurry up please, we have our first show tomorrow. you rule - dan
STRONG BAD: {typing} Well, Dan, the easiest way is to, you know, just have a really cool last name and use that. You know like Van Halen, or Dokken, or to a lesser extent Z'Nuff.
{clears screen. Now every time Strong Bad says a band name, an index card featuring the band's logo appears on the screen accompanied by guitar riffs}
STRONG BAD: {typing} The other way is to take a really cool word but then spell it all wrong. You know like... "LAZOR", or "BIGG NIFE", or something like "TARANCHULA" or maybe like "LIMOZEEN". You know, these are all great names, and you know, go ahead and take them. I'm not going to charge you or nothing. Just, uh, put me on the guest list plus one for that show huh? I'll probably take Pom-Pom. You know that he's been pretty cool lately. {stops typing} Okay, so tune in next week, when my guests will be Lemmy from Motorhead and the guys from Krokus!
{The Paper comes out and it says "Click here to e-mail strong bad", click on the text to email him.}
