Strong Bad spelled as one word
This sandbox article, and its subheads, might could use a better commando name.
This issue comes up a lot, so I made a little song.
My name is Strong Bad (doodle-a-doop)
Those are two different words (deedlely-doop)
It's Strong because I'm strong, and Bad because I'm great!
So don't forget the space bar, you nerds!
Fans will often misspell Strong Bad as "Strongbad". This issue extends to Strong Badia.
"Strongbad" in official material
The proliferation of "Strongbad" is likely due in part to Strong Bad Email. Although The Paper (and its successor) read "Click here to e-mail strong bad", the email address "strongbad@homestarrunner.com" may have led to confusion on whether his name was one or two words. The Compé-per explicitly mentioned "click to email strongbad", an oddity rectified by the CGI Paper using "Strong Bad" again as usual. In addition, Strong Bad typically checks his email using the application "strongbad_email.exe" ("strongbad's_email" on the Tandy 400), a name shared by the Strong Bad Email DVD series.
In Peasant's Quest, the command "make friends with Kerrek" brings up the response, "Look, it didn't work for Strongbad and it's not going to work for you, either".
A hidden page simply contains the text "this is strongbad".
@StrongBadActual is one word, as Twitter does not allow for spaces or similar separators in usernames. However, the name uses camel case to indicate "Strong" and "Bad" are separate words.
"Strongbadia" in official material
- monster truck — A flyer reads "LIVE IN STRONGBADIA"
- Population: Tire — The opening text refers to "THE CITIZENS OF STRONGBADIA"
