Fun Facts
Explanations
- "It happened to my roommate" in the spam Easter egg probably refers to chain letters, and the fact that most chain letters involve some type of miracle happening, as well as saying "It happened to this person," as well as the fact of forwarding it to 50 people in order for it "to happen to you."
Trivia
- The quarters that Bubs gives Strong Bad in exchange for the email addresses total $1,250 ($0.25 × 5,000), and would weigh 62.37lbs.
Remarks
- Since Strong Bad clearly reads his emails on-screen using "strongbad_email.exe," there is no rational reason as to why he would print out the bad ones before giving the pages to Strong Mad for his origami.
- When The Cheat is filing the emails into short, medium, and tall stacks, the paper is regular copy paper. Apparently, these emails were not printed using Strong Bad's dot matrix printer of The Paper fame.
- This is the first time we see Strong Bad with CDs. His computer, however, probably doesn't have a drive capable of burning CDs.
- There is a gap/small skip between "give them to my" and "big brother Strong Mad", hinting that The Brothers Chaps used two takes, and spliced them together.
- Although Strong Bad deletes the email, it can still be seen on the screen afterwards.
Inside References
- According to commentary on the DVD, the "clavicus... majorus" line was originally to be used in the unfinished toon Tis True, Pom Pom, Tis True.
- When Strong Bad runs toward the computer he passes the same door and window about four times, as in gimmicks, when the Tandy explodes.
Real-World References
- The email address the Weekly Spamvertisement is directed to (squealydee678@kindergartencop.edu), a reference to the Arnold Schwarzenegger film Kindergarten Cop.
- "Clavicus" is a play on the clavicle (also known as the collar bone).
- The background when Strong Bad is running to his computer is used in most cartoon shows during a chasing scene, where the hallway is very long and has repeating animation, such as a door or a window.
