Several real and fake zip codes are used throughout the Homestar Runner site. These include:

• 30307

This is the zip code on the contact page. According to Zipdecode, that's Atlanta, Georgia, home town of the Brothers Chaps.

• 30356

Also an Atlanta zip code, this is the zip code given for Harmless Junk, Inc..

• 2x2x2

Used for the store questions. This of course is not a real zip code.

• 80808

Used for the FAQ. This code is for Calhan, CO. — not Mundelow, PA.

• Pronouncing this quickly might yield "eighty-eighty-eight". Given all the references to old computer hardware The Brothers Chaps are so fond of including - the Intel 8088 was one of the first CPU chips used in early personal computers (pre-Tandy 400).

• 642T2

If you check the ZIP code on the FAQ envelope below "Without having to email, US", it is 642T2, which seems to be a reference to the Strong Bad Sings cartoon. At the end, the announcer says to call 1-800-428-64 tooty-two.
