{reading}

crapful
geroge
{Strong Bad pronounces "geroge" literally, as in "gee-roje" with a hard G}
STRONG BAD: {typing} Oh, no way, Geroge {same as before}. We tried that once. Trust me, man. Bad idea.
{The scene changes and we see Strong Bad standing in The Field. He hears a bird singing and he looks up and around.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Umm... so this is another part where it's just me. And I'm kinda standing around. You know, just standing. I guess I don't do very much. {Strong Bad scratches his head} No wait, I just scratched my head. Yeah, I remember that part. I totally had to scratch my head then, man. I can't remember exactly what I was looking at there. Er, I think it was like a bird, or maybe a cloud that looked like a bird. You know, like a bird cloud.
{The scene changes back to Strong Bad sitting in front of the computer.}
STRONG BAD: {typing} I dunno. That wasn't so bad actually. You know its like, All Strong Bad, All the Time! But you know what they say, "Too much of a good thing is an awesome thing. But too much of an awesome thing is...umm...really, really dumb and bad." {stops typing} All right, so until next time send me a little email and I'll give you a little crap.
{The Paper comes down.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} So, this is where I just finished checking my email and I'm just kinda sitting there. You know, I...I think I was probably staring at my computer screen. You know, watching those green lines go by. I'd be like "Whoa, check at these green lines!" You know, they just keep going. {His eyes turn to green hypnotic circles and his head sways a little.} Those things could hypnotize you, man. If you watch them long enough. {His head drops to the keyboard.} Oh, see! There I go.
Fun Facts
Trivia
- This is the first e-mail where The Paper reads "Click here to e-mail strong bad strongbad@homestarrunner.com" instead of just "Click here to e-mail strong bad."
Remarks
- When Strong Bad's head hits the keyboard, nothing changes on screen.
- It's strange that Strong Bad says he shouldn't have his own cartoon, since the majority of the previous emails have had only him as a character.
Goofs
- Strong Bad did not put an apostrophe in the "it's" in the "You know its like, All Strong Bad, All the Time" part of his reply.
Inside References
- Strong Bad receives another email signed with the word crap.
Fast Forward
- A 3-D CGI version of the cartoon becomes a scene in Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People.
DVD Version
- The DVD version adds a hidden audio commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.
Commentary Transcript
(Commentary by: Mike Chapman, Strong Bad)
STRONG BAD: {singing} Here comes email 21!
MIKE: So, I'm here again with Strong Bad.
STRONG BAD: Hi Mike!
MIKE: How's it goin'?
STRONG BAD: Pretty good.
MIKE: So, um... We're going to have you do—this will be, like, uh, three layers of commentary on this.
STRONG BAD: Yes, yes.
MIKE: It might be hard to understand with so many Strong Bad voices going on.
STRONG BAD: Well I'm not talking in this part—
MIKE: Yes you are.
STRONG BAD: I'm talking over the talking. I ju- I remember doing the commentary for this part, watching myself, and I was looking around, you know, and my head looked really weird, 'cause you weren't very good at Flash yet. And, uh, I tippy-tapped... I was totally tippy-tappin' the toes... It was a bird cloud.
MIKE: You—
STRONG BAD: I remember now.
MIKE: You remember now.
STRONG BAD: After all this time, I had a—a regression hypno-therapies, and it was, just, it—
MIKE: Everything that—
STRONG BAD: Clearly a bird cloud.
MIKE: Was there anything you remembered from your hypno-therapy?
STRONG BAD: Yes.
MIKE: From your past?
STRONG BAD: Yes.
MIKE: What else?
STRONG BAD: Uh, I—
MIKE: Do you remember what the "R" in "routine" stands for?
STRONG BAD: I did {angry} until you just said it, I did!
MIKE: Oh, and now you forgot?
STRONG BAD: I for—aww, but if you hadn't brought it up, I'd have totally just said that.
MIKE: I... well...
STRONG BAD: Man.
MIKE: So is this when you got the hypno-therapy right here? 'Cause it looks like, here in a second, you start to get hypnotized.
STRONG BAD: No, but they did the same thing! They made me look at an old Apple monitor.
MIKE: Uh, yeah.
STRONG BAD: So this is me at the end of the email lookin' at the end of the email {starts speeding up} lookin' at the end of the email lookin' at the end of the email lookin' at—oh no! I've been through the time warp! Mike! It's yesterday!
MIKE: {laughs a little} Oh really?
STRONG BAD: Oh no! We're working on an email or something, I don't remember! Ohh... I hit the cheese.
MIKE: Hit the cheese.
