Sounds
These are the sounds spoken by Strong Bad whenever a specific action happens:
- Min — Awwww...
- Max — Ohh!
- Error — Holy crap!
- Windows Start (original) — Hello, stupid, and welcome to your crappy computer!
- Windows Start (updated) — Ongggg, doodle-ing! Ding ding ding ding! Welcome to Windows 98. WHY ARE YOU STILL USING WINDOWS 98??! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU??!! STOP BUYING COMPUTERS FROM THRIFT STORES, MAN!!
- Windows Exit — {singing} Good bye, stupid! We've had a lot of fun on your crappy computer! Please don't ever come back!
Description
The desktop background has a SB symbol with a boxing glove in the middle on it which is repeated in a pattern. The icons are Strong Bad's head (which represents My Computer), Strong Bad's boxing glove (Network Neighborhood), Strong Bad standing in front of a stack of papers (My Documents), and a toilet paper roll (Recycle Bin). When the bin is empty, the roll is, oddly, a full roll; when the bin has files in it, the roll is nearly used up. The waiting cursor is a bomb with an animated fuse.
