So cool an Email.
I thought you would enjoy it.
Ding dong Dear Strong Bad.
The August 5, 2004 post has the following Haiku:
Broken slouchiness,
Smiling from outside the spine,
Sit up straight for once.
This night, black as pitch.
Doom from inside me wells up.
Pray I don't get egged.
Rapping at the door.
Fills up agèd pillow case.
So sick of Smarties.
A butt for a face.
Little brother: dork, dork, dork.
Stay out of my room.

In addition, the word "Haiku" has been mispronounced by Strong Bad.
