Revelation?

This is the first time that Homestar's armlessness has been mentioned to him. Strong Bad has talked about it before, but only when not near Homestar.

From: Strong Bad is a Bad Guy
Posted on: 20:30, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Arguments for:

  • Homestar seems unaware that he has no arms in this cartoon.
  • Strong Bad said that he "didn't have the heart to tell" Homestar about his arms, implying that Homestar didn't know before.

Arguments against:

  • In fingers, it was implied that Homestar knows about it.
  • Who cares when it was first mentioned to him. What's at stake is whether this reveals the true status of Homestar's arms, which it doesn't really (see comment below).

Additional comments:

  • Just to clarify, the previous time was in The Interview, where Strong Bad referred to Homestar as a "no-armed whitey".
  • This is a running gag. It has been brought up before, and I think that, even taking this toon into account, TBC are keeping this ambiguous. After all, it was Strong Mad who said "You don't have arms," and what does he know.
    • We could revise this to mention it as the continuation of a running gag.
      • In the bird, Homestar flips the bird to Strong Bad, who seems to be able to see it.
        • You need to set up a page that documents the running gag. I suggest Invisible Arms, since it affects other characters besides Homestar. Also, it ties in with How Do You Type With Boxing Gloves On?.
          • I'm surprised that we don't have an Invisible Arms page yet, as it is one of the more common running gags.
            • Well, we do now. Somebody go to town with it.
  • Are we sure Strong Bad's lack of heart was about Homestar's lack of arms and not something else, like the dumbness of Homestar's tattoo ideas?
    • Yes.
  • Strong Bad didn't get a very good response when he told Homestar about his pants, or his lack thereof. So he probably didn't want to be the one to tell him.
