*Strong Bad claims that his monthly power bill is $70,000.  Assuming that he pays the US national average price of [http://www.eia.doe.gov/cneaf/electricity/epm/table5_6_a.html 9.86¢/kWh], that would mean that he uses approximately 710 MWh/month ([[Wikipedia:megawatt hours|megawatt hours]] per month). Since an average US household uses [http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/reps/enduse/er01_us.html 888 kWh/month], he uses enough power for about 800 of them. Assuming the Lappy consumes most of this power, and he leaves it on 16 hours a day, this would mean the Lappy draws about 1450 kW (or about 950 kW if he leaves it on 24/7). The most powerful power supplies for real PCs only draw 2 kW. (Real computers that use more than that are always on multiple rack-mounted motherboards.)

This would be roughly 800 times more than the average usage of [http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/reps/enduse/er01_us.html 888 kWh/month] per US household.
-
**Strong Sad claims that Strong Bad's bill uses eight trees' worth of paper.  Assuming a tree can produce [http://www.howstuffworks.com/question16.htm 80,500] sheets of paper, this would be about 644,000 sheets of paper. This means that each page of the bill averages out to be approximately 10.87¢.
+
**Assuming Strong Bad leaves the Lappy on all the time and he doesn't have any other ridiculous power consumers in his house, it can be computed that the Lappy's consumption demand is just under one megawatt.
-
**In addition, if a standard bill would cost about $87.56/month<!-- $0.0986/kWh x 888 kWh/month -->, there should be no more than 800 bills. Assuming each bill is distributed by a different power company, if a total of four sheets are included, the maximum paper that should be used is produced by just under one tree every two years.

===Remarks===
===Remarks===
-
*The only United States marketed hybrid car to achieve 65 miles per gallon in official tests was the [[wikipedia:Honda Insight|Honda Insight]] (61/70 mpg). It was out of production at this email's release, but has been reintroduced. Currently, the most efficient hybrid car is the [[wikipedia:Toyota Prius|Toyota Prius]] (45/48 mpg).

*Though the email senders say they are from Idaho and Missouri (ID and MO), the Easter egg shows the states Idaho and Montana (ID and MT).
-
*Just like Strong Sad in [[concert]], Homestar is either playing with a left-handed Atari 2600 joystick or is playing with the joystick sideways. The standard joystick has its button in the upper left hand corner.

**The next day, an additional Easter egg was added, fixing this and poking fun at the mistake.
-
*Absolutely technically, a 'Thelma & Louise DVD' may in fact be described as 'organic' in the sense of being composed of organic molecules (i.e., ones that have carbon in them), as every component in the item (plastic, glue, ink, card stock) is made primarily of organic molecules. This would, however, be deeply misleading from the standpoint of its usual usage in packaging- to indicate a crop was grown without pesticides.
