Mr. Strong vs. Mr. Bad

Although Strong Bad, Strong Mad and Strong Sad are brothers, and presumably share the family name "Strong" (aka Asian practice), the snailmail is addressed to "Mr. Bad". While this clearly makes the adressee unambiguous, it is an incorrect form of address.

From: other days
Posted on: 23:21, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Arguments for:

  • If "Strong" is the family name, then addressing mail to "Mr. Bad" is like addressing to "Mr. Billy".
  • The brothers are usually referred to as "The Brothers Strong". "Strong" is clearly the family name.

Arguments against:

  • He's been referred to as "Mr. Bad" before, in credit card.
  • He's a cartoon character. Naming conventions don't necessarily apply to him.
  • It could simply be an error on the part of the sender, assuming the 1st name is the given name and the 2nd name the family name - even if it is Bubs.

Additional comments:

  • We know it's an error, that's what the fact says.
    • Which doesn't make it any more valid.

Cut-off-your-canteloupe style

Bubs' collections agency letter is sent in retaliation for Strong Bad's collections agency prank in lackey.

From: other days

Arguments for:

Arguments against:

  • There's nothing connecting these events, except references to a (different) collections agency.
  • It's very possible that Strong Bad simply bought items on credit and never payed for them.
