[edit] Fast Forward

Should we put in a link to senior prom regarding the girl with skinny blonde hair? Senior prom refers back to this. I was thinking something along the lines of:

Strongbad fakes a message on an answering machine from a girl who had to go to Mars and thus could not go to a dance with him in senior prom, possibly the same person as the girl with skinny blonde hair.

I was wondering if we should mention Delilelia by name.--jqubed (talk) 04:47, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to put in:

Strong Bad fakes a phone message from a girl named Delilelia who had to go to Mars and thus could not go to a dance with him in senior prom. This might be the same person as the girl with skinny blonde hair.

[edit] "back" link

The "back" link works like an inch left of the word back. Is this worth noting and does it happen anywhere else? --ninja pirate 17:37, 2 Dec 2004 (MST)

Nope it is a valid glitch. I was looking over emails and saw you guys didn't have this one listed.

[edit] dumpus note

STRONG BAD: Wait a minute... lemme check something... {runs spellchecka.exe, it says "0 spelling errors found!"} No way! {typing} No misspellings, a good idea, made fun of Strong Sad {types "dumpus" in place of Strong Sad} ... don't get me wrong, Dan, I mean, I wanna make fun of you but, uh, you've put together a solid email! {while saying this, he types "No misspellings + good idea + made fun of dumpus = SOLID!!"}

---

I removed the {types "dumpus" in place of Strong Sad} because that note is already taken care of in {while saying this, he types "No misspellings + good idea + made fun of dumpus = SOLID!!"}. Is there a reason why you kept this, HR Coder? --BazookaJoe 16:11, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

She probably didn't notice the bottom part. Personally I think we should reword it- keep the "{types "dumpus" in place of Strong Sad} and remove this part from the "{No misspellings + good idea...}" part. —FireBird|Talk 16:14, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Aye, but if we put in {types "dumpus" in place of Strong Sad} and remove {while saying this, he types "No misspellings + good idea + made fun of dumpus = SOLID!!"}, shouldn't we then have to also put in {types "+ good idea"}, {types "= SOLID!!"} where necessary? Wouldn't it be easier to only have {...he types "No misspellings + good idea..."}? -BazookaJoe 16:21, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Oh, wait. I see where you're coming from. That idea is much better, yes. —FireBird|Talk 16:23, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Oh, sorry about that. Guess I was confused. Aurora the Homestar Coder 17:02, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Ok, I took it out. --BazookaJoe 03:08, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] No grammar errors, maybe

But Dan should have said "autobiography," not "biography"

[edit] Cussing?

Let's sort this out once and for all. Some users have recently tried to add the following Fun Fact:

When Strong Bad hits fast forward the first time, it is implied that Deke had cussed at Strong Bad.

Her's the problem: how do we know that Deke actually swore at Strong Bad? He could have called him a "freakin' idiot" and then beaten him up, for example; Strong Bad could have fast forwarded so we don't know that Deke got real mad at him. Furthermore, when a similar issue arose with trevor the vampire, it was decided not to mention the possibility of swearing on the basis that it didn't need to be pointed out and that the "f" was speculatory. In that case, why should "autobiography" be exempt? What does everyone else think? – The Chort 17:24, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] caffeine

In the email caffeine, Strong Bad receives another email with no spelling errors, that made fun of Strong Sad, and that he saw as a good idea. However, he doesn't comment about that at all. Worth a reference? —Guard Duck ^talk 05:25, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

I say no, because this comes before caffeine, and Strong Bad didn't find it as remarkable the second time it happened (rightly so). If he would have made his comment in caffeine and not in this one, that would have been noteworthy because he didn't notice the first time it happened, but the way it is, it's no big deal.--.Johnny Jupiter! ^talk _cont 06:53, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Incorrect Data....DELETED!

• "print_of_it.exe" is the first of Strong Bad programs other than "strongbad_email.exe" that incorporate an underscore.

This is not true. take_a_break.exe, does as well.--Geonightman 22:44, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Actually, it is true. The program in huttah! is take-a-break.exe, with hyphens, not underscores. --DorianGray 22:49, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Then someone fix that on the Compy's page.--Geonightman 04:43, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
