"How do you type with boxing gloves on?" and its variants are questions that Strong Bad is asked on a regular basis in his emails. The Brothers Chaps obviously must be asked it so often that they made it a running gag.

Strong Bad hates this question, and it is often DELETED. Old-Timey Strong Bad is apparently frequently asked the similar question, "How do you manage the telegramophone whilst wearing gentleman's sport gloves?" Strong Bad parodies this question in the Fan Costume Commentary and the email vacation. In the DVD commentary for the email video games, The Brothers Chaps say that they might come up with a way to answer this question someday. However, in February 2006, they also included this question as one of five topics which will likely never be addressed in a Strong Bad Email.

On a related note, in the email impression on Strong Bad's tape recording, Strong Sad tells Strong Bad to stop flicking his ear, but Strong Sad doesn't have any visible ears, nor does Strong Bad have visible fingers with which to flick someone's ear. Additionally, Strong Bad seems capable of typing not only with his boxing gloves, but with any part of his body he wishes. In sisters he types "head—hit—keyboard" by striking the keyboard with his head, and in funny he types "WOAH!! I CAN TYPE WITH ONE FOOT!" by hitting the keyboard with his foot. In bottom 10, he even typed when his keyboard was covered in vomit, and in tape-leg, he typed with one hand while removing tape from his shoe.

At one point, in the email fingers, he tried prosthetic fingers made of various items such as prawn, action figures, etc. Their effect on his typing skills, though, was disastrous. However, in morning routine he was able to type successfully with a Potate bag covering his right hand.

In the email highschool, Teenage Strong Bad plays the keyboard in The Homestar Runner Mysfit-steries, even though he doesn't have fingers.

In the email pop-up, the Tandy 400 was featured in the book asking "HOW TYPE BOX GLOVES?" Strong Bad described this as "his crappy old computer, asking the same crappy old questions."

A similar question that gets asked often is how Homestar, Marzipan, The King of Town, and Homsar, among other characters, are able to pick things up without having any arms.
