This article may need to think of a better commando name. If you have a suggestion, or if you would like to comment on one that may have already been proposed, please see the talk page.

Do you want to take it in a different direction?

Sometimes when Strong Bad answers an email, he disregards the content of the email or does the complete opposite.

Appearances

• Email homsar — Vinnie C. suggests that if Strong Bad hates Homsar, most likely a misspelling of Homestar so much, he should kill him. Strong Bad, however, takes this literally, leading him to kill Homsar instead. (This may have been intentional in order to keep Strong Bad from actually killing Homestar, and maybe to also introduce a new character to The Homestar Runner Body of Work)
• Email 1 step ahead — One of the choices is to TAKE IT IN A BIT OF A DIFFERENT DIRECTION. If this choice is picked, Strong Bad does, in fact, take it in a different direction by gluing Strong Sad's hands to his butt instead of his face.
• Email spring cleaning — Strong Bad deletes each email instead of doing what it suggests.
• Email superhero name — Stiny asks about Strong Bad's name, but Strong Bad instead makes fun of Stiny's.
• Email gimmicks — Strong Bad is reminded of the times when he didn't need a gimmick to be funny, shortly before his computer explodes.
• Email big white face — Jen C. asks Strong Bad why he is mean to the guy with the big white face and gray body (clearly referring to Strong Sad). Strong Bad replies by trying to do something nice for The Poopsmith by baking him a cake, but instead throws the cake at Strong Sad and he has to make The Cheat make him another one.
• Email stupid stuff — Kevin Grumbles asks Strong Bad to make Homestar say something stupid, but instead he tries to earn Grumblecakes by making Homestar say something smart.
• Email dangeresque 3 — The sender asks when Dangeresque 3 is coming out, and instead Strong Bad shows a remastered version of Dangeresque 1.
• Email old comics — Zack asks why The King of Town has a poopsmith, but instead Strong Bad talks about the time they apparently had their own old syndicated newspaper comic called The Castlefunnies.
• Email origins — Strong Bad pointedly refuses to talk about the origins of The Stick, and instead goes on a tangent about the Stick's hangingoutitude and the formation of the On Point Kings.
• Email what I want — Talon Jendro asks Strong Bad what he would like for Decemberween, but instead Strong Bad focuses on a list of presents he would not want.
• Email looking old — Andy Hsiao asks Strong Bad how old he is, but instead he tells us his age is a secret.
• Email strong badathlon — Lewis Rudkin asks Strong Bad to either through The Cheat as far as he could or beat the crud out of Homestar. Strong Bad instead talks about a contest held in Strong Badia called the Strong Badathlon.
• Email unnatural — Strong Bad is asked if Strong Badia ever has natural disasters, but instead talks about unnatural disasters, like the time Bubs became the giant King Bubsgonzola Supreme.
• Email yes, wrestling Strong Bad is asked to show some of his "awesome wrestling moves" but instead shows all about his career as a wrestler mostly referring to all the awesome gimmicks he used.
