Editing Talk:Happy Hallow-day

== A goof to start it off ==

I got a goof to start it off: in the scene where Homestar makes the trap for halloween night, there is a problem with the layering when they show Coach Z. The candy goes over his arm on the right side. I uploaded a picture: [http://www.geocities.com/sbsp_fan_1/goof.JPG]
:I saw that too. o_o Not sure if it's a goof or a glitch, though... --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
::I'd say glitch, to my mind a goof is a spelling/plot/grammar error, wheras a glitch is a mistake in the making of the flash file [[User:DumbMuscle|DumbMuscle]] 18:53, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
::It is more of a goof, because they Brothers Chap forgot to add a mask to the candy. It isn't a glitch where the toon stops working or the toon messes up. It is human error. {{User:Raptor5ix/sig}} 20:51, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

== Easter egg ==

To avoid making edit to page in progress:

* When the camera cuts back from the close up on the King of Town, click the Poopsmiths head to see a scene with Homsar (plays at the end of the King of Town's scene)<br>
:''{Cut to Homsar in an Ed Grimley costume standing next to a pile of newspapers reading "Eggs Tree!" and in front of a tree with eggs on}''
:'''Homsar''': Eggs tree! Eggs Tree! This get up is my get down.
:''{as he says the last bit his head sinks into his costume}''

== And The Cheat says... ==

I hear it as "Red rum! Red rum!" But more to the point - I don't like the trend of putting words in The Cheat's mouth. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 19:14, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
:I don't hear it as anything specific, but it matches "Bright light! Bright light", as frequently called by Gizmo (The Cheat's costume). --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
::"Bright light! Bright light" is hands-down the most likely quote here. --[[User:Bill|Bill]]
:::I heard "My eyes! My eyes!". Eh. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 13:13, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
::::Me too. -Alex H.

== Monchhicheat? ==

I thought SB calls the Cheat "Monchhicheat", a pun on "Monchhichis" and a reference to the fact the The Cheat is hairier than usual (due to his Gizmo costume). [[User:Starblind|Starblind]] 20:17, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

== Jam On It? ==

Does The Skull really say "Ajambonee"? I thought it said "Jam on it". EDIT: if you listen closely, you can hear a "t" sound at the end of his sentence. I think that confirms it. &mdash; {{User:SamFisher1022/sig}} 15:24, 30 October 2006
I thought it said  a jam on it, a play on a curse on it.-Some Anon
:I concur. [[User:Retromaniac|Retromaniac]] 17:37, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

"Jam On It" was an old-school rap (from the mid-80's) by the band Newcleus. It was both the title and tagline...sounds to me like what the skull was saying. (You might have to ask Coach Z)

== "We need hamen?" ==

Uh, I'm fairly sure Marzipan says "We be jammin'", which makes a lot more sense in a reggae context.  Plus they are, you know, actual words.  ;)  GSL -- [[User:68.251.82.222|68.251.82.222]] 20:42, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

== Never Feed Them After Midnight ... ==

Mogwai don't turn into "some sort of horrible beastie" after being exposed to the sun.  The sun ''kills'' them.  It's ''feeding them after midnight'' that turns them into Gremlins.

Where would this comment best fit on the page?

== Orange and black loose tooth removers ==

While orange and black may be the color of the Marshie candies, they're also the color of the wrappers of Mary Jane/Bit-O-Honey candies. A photo and description is found here: http://www.typetive.com/candyblog/item/mary_jane_peanut_butter_kisses/  The candy is chewy and sticky, and perfect for pulling teeth or fillings. I'd say this is closer to a real world reference than an inside reference.
:That's true, but Homestar says "orange and black ''flavored''". Marshie said the same thing in [[Malloween Commercial]], which is why I consider this an Inside Reference. &mdash; {{User:SamFisher1022/sig}} 16:32, 30 October 2006
::I agree, the inside referance is the phrase "Orange and Black Flavored," not Orange and Black colored candies. [[User:Pyromaniac|Pyromaniac]]
:::No, no, no. Anyone remember... I think the house that gave Sucky Treats. Eaither that or the one after it, but it could also be a reference to the mini-game at the beggining where you have to slice open the bags and, guess what, the same exact candies come out. --[[User:Zoologist|Zoologist]] 05:29, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
::::I have to agree with the original post, those are real candies that are really gross, and would likely remove a loose tooth. I think it's a real world reference.

== Opening Glitch? ==

When I load the toon, Marzipan moves in silence for about two frames, and then the toon freezes for a moment before the audio begins and the video starts up again. Looks like a glitch (or a goof) to me. Perhaps it's an error in the synch between the audio and video? --[[User:Lukeonia1|Lukeonia1]] 23:06, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
:Not getting the praeblem here. &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 23:57, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
::I've noticed my old, slow computer often freezes for a moment before sound starts playing in any flash file.  That's probably what's happening here (something similar is happening to me, but I don't think it's a glitch in the toon itself). {{User:Saturn/sig}} 03:15, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

== I don't do so well in all this sunlight... ==

Could Strong Sad be suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasonal_Affective_Disorder)? One could take his mouth twitches to be an involuntary smile, a sign that the sunlight is effectively treating his depression. What do you think?
:Yes, definitely. That's the joke. &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 00:15, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
:Well, he IS on medication... no, I'm just kidding. But I doubt the SAD thing. Even if the abbreviation is the same as his name. The real point was just so we could see that a) Strong Sad can laugh and b) he doesn't want to. Maybe he's taking meds to MAKE himself depressed?[[User:Zero.exe|Zero.exe]] 00:49, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

== Poopsmith Glitch ==

"When the camera zooms in on Strong Sad after The Poopsmith's head becomes clickable (for the Homsar easter egg), that area of the screen is still clickable even though nothing is there."
Um, I'm pretty sure I didn't word this very well, so if anyone feels they can fix it, go ahead. And, um, do you guys think this would be a goof or a glitch?[[User:Zero.exe|Zero.exe]] 00:46, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

== Risque Real-World Reference ==

Ummm... this may be too adult-oriented for the wiki, but I think when Strongbad refers to the fact that they should have been out "turning treats" by then, he's making a play on the term "turning tricks" - which refers to prostitution. Treats instead of tricks. Just throwing it out there to see if I'm the only one with my brain in the gutter. ^___^; [[User:Dandon TRJ|Dandon TRJ]] 02:52, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
:That's what I figured too. Man, the costumes this year were great.
::For the record, I immediately thought the same thing, so no, you're not the only one. :) {{User:Saturn/sig}} 03:11, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
:::It's highly unlikely that this is an intendend similarity between the two expressions. It's not the kind of content that TBC use for H*R.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 04:16, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
::::I've gotta disagree with you there. Even though H*R appeals to younger fans, and TBC try to keep it clean, they definitely throw some humor over the kiddies' heads for the adult-types in the audience. You can tell from interviews that it's in their nature. As for the joke itself, "trick or treat" is the h'ween expression. Simply switch out that one word in the other expression, and there you go. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:39, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

==No Real Opening Credits==
For the first time ever on the website, no real opening credits accompany a Halloween toon; all we see is the phrase: "These ARE the opening credits!" What gives? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 06:40, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

:Those are the opening credits.&nbsp;-- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 07:03, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
:: I'm reminded of a webcomic I read. Characters that are clearly aliens walk around with shirts that read "Human" or "Homo Sapien" and nobody questions it. :p --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:05, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
