[[Bubs' Character Video|Hey there, every peoples!]] My name [[Not X|not]] [[Bubs]]! I love [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]], I love [http://www.minecraft.net Minecraft], and I'm just about the greatest guy ever! Or at least, some people think that. I know I do!

Hi there, I'm Lira (formerly known as SRMX12), a {{yearssince|5 Feb 2001}}-year old contributor from the US. Thanks for stopping by! Some of my interests include programming, art (digital and regular type) and theater. I like mangoes more than most people. Some of my favorite toons from childhood include [[Ballad of the Sneak]], [[Lookin at a Thing in a Bag]], and email [[mini-golf]]. Drop me a message on my [[User talk:Lira|talk page]] if you want to ask me or tell me something, or if you think I'm cool, or if I'm doing something wrong.

*My favorite Homestar Runner game is '''[[Stinkoman 20X6]]'''. I really wish they'd finish that dang thing.
+
Homestar Runner has been a part of my life since childhood mostly thanks to my parents, though it wasn't until 2015 that I discovered the existence of this wiki (I don't remember exactly how I stumbled upon it) and decided I had to join. Although I've appreciated Homestar Runner almost all of my life, it took a while for my obsession to take hold, and by that time the site was well into its [[HRWiki:Hiatuses|hiatus]] and I assumed updates were a thing of the past. Then a little later, around the time I discovered the wiki, I realized they were updating again, and I've been following it religiously ever since. The wiki has been more beneficial to me than I can enumerate. I've gleaned a wealth of interesting little tidbits of Homestar Runner history, and seen some toons I probably wouldn't have seen otherwise, like [[Where The Crap Are We?]].
-
*'''[[Lookin at a Thing in a Bag]]''' has got to be one of my favorite Homestar Runner [[toons]] ever.
+
-
*I really wish I could definitively name who my favorite character is, but I can't, so I'll just say-- I really like '''[[Homestar Runner]]''', '''[[Bubs]]''', and '''[[Senor Cardgage]]'''. (Man... [[kind of cool|so cool]].)
+
-
*I don't yet have '''[[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]]''', but I asked for it for [[Decemberween]], so I'll probably get it soon. I'll probably set up a whole section of my user page dedicated to it.
+
-
*I can get really, ''really'' worked up over '''[[Strong Bad's Rhythm 'n' Grammar|grammar]]'''. Don't type a run-on sentence any place where I might read it. [[Blubb-O's Commercial|I'll chop off your legs!]]

*Everybody loves my '''[[style]]'''!

I'm a sysop along with my good friend [[User:Gfdgsgxgzgdrc|Gfdgsgxgzgdrc]] at your local [https://hrfwiki2.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page Homestar Runner Fanstuff Wiki 2]. I sometimes make Homestar pixel art and pixelated [https://scratch.mit.edu Scratch] cartoons, which I like to call [http://hrfwiki2.miraheze.org/wiki/Pixstar_Runner Pixstar Runner]. My Twitter account is [[twitter:liracali|@liracali]], though you won't see me tweet very much.

So one of my major interests is [https://scratch.mit.edu/ Scratch], a kid-friendly programming language I started being self-taught in sixth grade. I've created quite a bunch of various fairly-simple not-entirely-lame games over the years-- you can visit my profile [https://scratch.mit.edu/users/MBGameCompany/ here].
+
Here's a few other random details about me.
 +
*I'm an INFJ on the [[wikipedia:Myers–Briggs Type Indicator|personality chart]].
 +
*I know a little [[German]].
 +
*I play trombone.
 +
*[[They Might Be Giants]] is my favorite band ever. I saw them perform in Boston on [[tmbw:Shows/2018-04-27|April 27, 2018]], and in Providence on [[tmbw:Shows/2020-02-07|February 7, 2020]].
 +
*I got [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]] for [[Decemberween]] in 2015, and I finally finished the [[8-Bit Is Enough|last episode]] sometime in 2017.
 +
*I attended The Brothers Chaps' [[PAX East - 8 Apr 2018|PAX East]] panel in April 2018.
 +
*My family backed [[Trogdor!! The Board Game]] in 2018, and we got our copy in July 2019. So much majesty in one box!
 +
*I have a high score of 9879 (level 78) in the Flash version of [[TROGDOR!]]. In the [[Ruffle]] version I've reached level 119 and scored 17399, but that version seems to have some glitches including allowing the player into treasure cottages they shouldn't be able to get in, so I don't know if I want to count that one.

But about halfway through the first semester of my [[highschool]] freshman year (that's this year), a revelation was had by me-- [[Why Come|why come]] I haven't made a Homestar Runner game yet?! So I sat down and created some [[Awexome Cross|awexome]] pixelated graphics for most of the main characters, and by now I'm well into the development of making:

'''Strong Bad's Attractive Game for Cool People!''' The point-and-click adventure game whose name is '''[[Blatant Lies|in no way, shape, or form]]''' copied off an [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People|existing Wii game]]! I mean... sorry. That's all I could come up with. I thought it was a good name.

But no-- this is a real, actual Scratch game that is probably going to be released for free public playing sometime in '''Spring 2016'''. You can see the preview/teaser/trailer-type thing '''[https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/92093757/ here]'''-- you'll see some of the game sprites, a sample of my made-up dialogue (I try to stay true to the [[characters]] as much as physically possible), and a [[User:SRMX12#SBAG4CP Development Blog|development blog]] that'll keep you [[All Up Ons|all up]] to date on the... development.

Cool words I have to say
...and while yes, no character in Homestar Runner canon has used they/them personal pronouns...

Wait, how could I forget? Galgabudge canonically goes by they/them pronouns! Good for them.

4.1.2021

Welcome to me

Hi there, I'm Lira (formerly known as SRMX12), a 24-year old contributor from the US. Thanks for stopping by! Some of my interests include programming, art (digital and regular type) and theater. I like mangoes more than most people. Some of my favorite toons from childhood include Ballad of the Sneak, Lookin at a Thing in a Bag, and email mini-golf. Drop me a message on my talk page if you want to ask me or tell me something, or if you think I'm cool, or if I'm doing something wrong.

Homestar Runner has been a part of my life since childhood mostly thanks to my parents, though it wasn't until 2015 that I discovered the existence of this wiki (I don't remember exactly how I stumbled upon it) and decided I had to join. Although I've appreciated Homestar Runner almost all of my life, it took a while for my obsession to take hold, and by that time the site was well into its hiatus and I assumed updates were a thing of the past. Then a little later, around the time I discovered the wiki, I realized they were updating again, and I've been following it religiously ever since. The wiki has been more beneficial to me than I can enumerate. I've gleaned a wealth of interesting little tidbits of Homestar Runner history, and seen some toons I probably wouldn't have seen otherwise, like Where The Crap Are We?.

I'm a sysop along with my good friend Gfdgsgxgzgdrc at your local Homestar Runner Fanstuff Wiki 2. I sometimes make Homestar pixel art and pixelated Scratch cartoons, which I like to call Pixstar Runner. My Twitter account is @liracali, though you won't see me tweet very much.

Here's a few other random details about me.


Good music

I highly recommend the following bands. I've included a YouTube link for each if you're interested in sampling a song.



This user likes fun. And so do you!
