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.

Many times, objects are specifically (and often awkwardly) pointed out to be real or actual when it's plainly obvious that they are not.

Examples

• Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 6.0 — Strong Bad insists that his girlfriend is real, over and over again.
• Email credit card — The writers of the email "promise that [they] are real and not just trying to steal [Strong Bad's] money."
• Email 50 emails — Homestar Runner posts a fake error message after crashing the Compy 386. The error message's title bar reads "This is real".
  • The System is Down, Not the 100th Email!!!, and Main Page 22 — Similar fake error messages to the above appear with "This is real" in the title bar.
• Email autobiography — Strong Bad specifically notes that the description of his alleged girlfriend was a true part.
• Email senior prom — Strong Bad tries to fake a phone message from a girl in front of Strong Mad and The Cheat, insisting that it's real.
• Decemberween Short Shorts — Coach Z tells Homestar Runner that he's having "all kinds of real people over to [his] house for a coupla real people parties."
• Email diorama — Strong Bad's book is allegedly written by "Ronmartin Realdude" and printed by the "Actual Publishing Company". Coach Z talks to "Ronmartin Realdude" via a notepad with a cell phone drawn on it.
