The word '''"style"''' is frequently used in [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]], carrying a variety of meanings. Although regularly used with the standard definitions of "manner of doing something" or "design and fashion", "style" is just as often appended to adjectives (in a manner similar to -[[type]]) or used as a noun with a positive connotation but indeterminate meaning. Its consistent presence in the vernacular makes it one of the most common word [[running gag]]s.
+
The word '''"style"''' is frequently used in contexts where it doesn't quite belong and has thus become something of a [[running gag]].
