| + | ::The article doesn't explain the joke at all, though, it's just confusing. My interpretation of the joke is as follows: the first time, the logo reads Esq., you assume it's the title of social status, and the second time when it says GQ, you realize that Esq. could have also stood for the magazine - even though that abbreviation is typically only used to refer to the title. Regardless, this whole article strikes me as completely unnecessary, since Sbemailiarization has only occurred in two very closely related toons released a day apart. --[[User:Tim Tom|Tim Tom]] | ||

| Sbemailiarized Entertainment is a featured article, which means it showcases an important part of the Homestar Runner body of work and/or highlights the fine work of this wiki. We also might just think it's cool. If you see a way this page can be updated or improved without compromising previous work, feel free to contribute. |
Bill S. Preston Esq.
The "Esq." is not in reference to the men's magazine of the same name but rather the name suffix.
