Current revision as of 03:52, 25 November 2025

This paper has no official name. "CGI Paper" is a simple description.
"C-G-eeow..."

The CGI Paper is the current replacement for Compé-per after the Compé was compressed into the Lappier. It resembles The Paper, but in 3D, making it far thicker and blockier. It directs viewers to @StrongBadActual, rather than Strong Bad's email address of strongbad@homestarrunner.com as prior incarnations of The Paper did. It is not clickable, unlike past papers. This paper is accompanied by a "C-G-eeow!" onomatopoeia, narrated by Strong Bad; a reference to The Paper's preeeeow.

It is unknown if it is a physical object present within the Homestar Runner universe, as it has not yet physically appeared. Because of this, no characters have been shown to react to it, aside from Strong Bad's narration. Even then, it is uncertain whether he actually narrates it every time, or if it is simply the sound the paper makes. It is also unknown if it is sentient, as most of Strong Bad's other papers have been.

[edit] Text

In most appearances, the CGI paper reads:

> tweet here to email strong bad
@StrongBadActual

This text is the same across both site (Flash) and YouTube uploads.

As of mid-2024, usage of the @StrongBadActual Twitter account has decreased. The Strong Bad Email robots (released November 24, 2025) uses much simpler text on the CGI Paper:

>CGEEOW<

On the YouTube version of the toon, the CGI Paper reads:

>pretend here to email<
>>strong bad<<
