==Easter Eggs==
==Easter Eggs==
-
[[Image:Nathan TX Easter Egg.PNG|thumb|Way four more cylinders!]]
+
*This is the first Easter Egg in a String Bed YTP.
-
*Near the beginning, click on "standard Nathan" to see a drawing of "Standard Nathan" (some generic man) on an [[index card]].
+
[[Image:Nathan TX Easter Egg.PNG|thumb|World's famous bran flakes]]
-
**As the picture zooms in, it shows "the Nathan TX," which shows a weird smiling car in front of Standard Nathan. It is labeled "built-in smoke" (pointing to smoke from the tires), "3 front wheels" (pointing to its multiple front wheels), and "nathan" (pointing to Nathan).
+
-
*When the King of Town is eating the salt, click on the salt shaker to see a can of "Standard Nathan" Brand salt. (The link continues to work after the King has sucked up the shaker)
+
-
*While Homestar Runner is telling his second [[Wikipedia:redneck|redneck]] joke, click on Homsar in the background to see his record page. It reads "Chapter 81 - Awkwardnesses, The Semi-Annual Mustard Man Award Or Best Offer!: Homsar" and shows Homsar with the gum on his face and his hat over his eyes, but in a different background.
+
-
 
+
-
==Fun Facts==
+
-
===Explanations===
+
-
*The King of Town had a [[Wikipedia:heart attack|heart attack]] after eating the pile of [[Wikipedia:Edible salt#Health effects|salt]] because it contains [[Wikipedia:sodium|sodium]], a chemical element linked to [[Wikipedia:Hypertension|high blood pressure]]. Persistent high blood pressure is a risk factor for heart attacks.
+
-
 
+
-
=== Trivia ===
+
-
*The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#crush crumble and chomp|crush, crumble, & chomp]]".
+
-
 
+
-
===Remarks===
+
-
*As of July 25, 2005, the [http://www.iaaf.org/statistics/records/gender=W/allrecords/discipline=PV/index.html women's world record] for [[Wikipedia:pole vault|pole vault]] was 16 ft, 5 in. That record was set on July 22, 2005. Marzipan's world record is just one-quarter inch short of the [http://www.iaaf.org/statistics/records/gender=M/allrecords/discipline=PV/index.html men's world record] of 20 ft, 1.75 in.  However, that was set indoors, and the outdoor record is 20 ft., 1.25 in., which Marzipan beat.
+
-
*Though Strong Bad's record says "13.4 seconds", he only says "Bull Honkey" for 10.8 seconds, counting both "Bull" and the silent pause before "key". Just the Hooo&ndash; part lasts for 8.1 seconds. However from the time he starts saying "Bull Honkey" to The Paper coming down is 13.4 seconds. The number is more likely to refer to the fact that this is email #134.
+
-
*When Strong Bad was turning to the "Dirtiest Diapey" record, it looked like he was turning two pages, but instead, he turned seventy-four pages. Also, the same chapter (Chapter 4 - Records of Smell) continues 74 pages further.
+
-
*"Least healthiest man" is grammatically incorrect. It should be either "least healthy man" or "unhealthiest man".
+
-
<!-- We've seen Strong Sad smile in the past, and it's not so much of a rarity these days, so don't put it here. -->
+
-
*When Strong Bad spills breakfast on the record book, he is shown telling another [[blatant lie]].
+
-
*Ironically, Strong Bad's mouth remains rectangular instead of becoming round (as it normally does when he pronounces the "ou" sound) during "Most Rectangular Mouth!?".
+
-
*Although Strong Bad tells Coach Z that he can't win a record for "mak[ing] up some random crap that no one else will ever do," Strong Mad apparently does just that by nailing macaroni to a paper towel tube.
+
-
**Strong Bad himself gets into the record book with a similar gimmick.
+
-
*Count Longardeaux's book apparently has two chapter sevens &mdash; one for "Records of Loneliness", and one for "Saying Words For A Long Time Records."
+
-
 
+
-
===Goofs===
+
-
*Even after the King of Town swallows up the salt shaker ''and'' the record page appears, the Easter egg can still be activated. However, after the record page comes up, the Easter egg cannot be seen behind the record page.
+
-
*While Strong Bad is turned away from the Lappy, part of the screen is going over the outside of its normal area.

'''MIKE:''' That's cool, man! You should buy one!

+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, well, maybe ''you'' should buy one. ''{Mike and Ryan laugh}''
+
-
 
+
-
''{pause until The King of Town starts sucking in the salt}''
+
-
 
+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' I like the sound the King makes. ''{all three laugh}'' Whoa-ho-ho! Look out dude, he got the 7... the 7 shaker. ''{long pause}'' I'll say that again in a different cra-toon!
+
-
 
+
-
'''MIKE:''' They're all seven&mdash;
+
-
 
+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' What that thing next to him? You see that, there was a... ''{sees Homestar}'' What is he doing? Man. And what is with that soap box that keeps counting up?
+
-
 
+
-
'''MIKE:''' It gets one... It gets one more every time.
+
-
 
+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' One louder! ''{long pause}'' Ryan.
+
-
 
+
-
'''RYAN:''' Strong Bad.
+
-
 
+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' What's one of your favorite records-book-type things? Or like, freakshow types?

'''RYAN:''' The hai&mdash; the hairy forehead.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{laughing}'' The hairy forehead? ''{Mike laughs}''

+
-
'''RYAN:''' It was always a favorite.
+
-
 
+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' That's a good one. ''{sees him hitting himself}'' Oh-ho! I hated it so much, I had to punch myself in the face, to offset how much I hated it. ''{Ryan and Mike laugh}'' That seems like, half of the stuff you'd see, though, in the Guiness book. It'd be like, some guy's like, "Oh, I'm gonna do some arbitrary thing."

+
-
'''MIKE:''' "I'm gonna put a bunch of, uh... bees on my face."
+
-

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, the&mdash; The beard of bees? ''{Mike laughs}'' Man, that is no kind of record. ''{pause}'' It's stupid... and fun to watch. but it's not&mdash;
+
-
 
+
-
'''MIKE:''' It's not a world record.
+
-
 
+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' No!
+
-
 
+
-
'''MIKE:''' That's designated for things like the longest hair.
+
-
 
+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' That's right!
+
-
 
+
-
'''MIKE:''' Legitimate feats of wonder.
+
-
 
+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' Exactly! Longest fingernails. ''{long pause until Marzipan's record is shown}'' Yeah.
+
-
 
+
-
'''MIKE:''' She beat Sergey Bubka's record, maybe?
+
-
 
+
-
'''STRONG BAD:''' I think so! Awwwwww, Bubs! Cutest couple.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{overlapping}'' Look, this...is my fleshtangle, and I don't know why I didn't tell nobody at the time.

+
-
'''MIKE:''' A fleshtangle, huh?

-
'''STRONG BAD:''' That's what I call it. A fleshtangle of mouth. ''{pause}'' That's a pretty good Bull Honkey!

Transcript

STRONG BAD:

STRONG BAD: I can't remember if I'm in the record book or not. Let's take a look. {pronounced like "bük luke"}

{Cut to a table. Strong Bad places "RIP VAN RIPEND'S BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS!" on the table.}

STRONG BAD: All right, let's see what we got in here.

{He opens the book to page 42. The number "42" fades to static and disappears. The page shows a picture of a really dirty Coach Z with no clothes, and reads "Chapter 4 - Records of Shit, Longest Streaking Record 65 Days, 3 Hours, 42 Minutes: COACH Z."}

STRONG BAD: 65 days?! That's {warbled pitch} way outdated! I'm pretty sure he's surpassed that one.

{Turns to page 116. This page shows young Strong Bad in a diaper and reads "Chapter 4 - Records of Shit, Shittiest Diapey, Very, Very Dirty: LIL' STRONG BAD."}

STRONG BAD: Shittiest Diape— Whoa! {throws eggs, bacon, and coffee on the page and makes coughing noises} Coffee, eggs, bacon! Oh, too bad, I made breakfast all over that record.

{Cut back to the Lappy}

STRONG BAD: {typing} Clearly, this book is in serious need of an update. Let's begin with the title. How about: Awful Fawful's Book of YouTube Poops. {The book appears} Now that sounds like a book worthy of shitting in every toilet and magazine basket. Now let's go see about updating some o' them records.

{He gets up. We now see Strong Sad, holding a magnifying glass and humming softly, writing on a tiny Viagra pill. His face is magnified with fish-eye effect. Strong Bad walks up.}

STRONG BAD: 'Sup, double-ass? How much do you weigh?

STRONG SAD: What do you wanna know that for?

STRONG BAD: Awful Fawful has me out gathering new records {holds up a clipboard, which has a paper on it that reads "who the fattest ass?"} for his record book.

STRONG SAD: Oh! Well then this should interest you! I transcribed onto this single grain of basmati rice! {Cut to a view of the rice grain through the magnifying glass with red and blue blended colors a la 3D.} {robotic voice effect} In 3D!

STRONG BAD: Oh, yeah! That definitely deserves a record!

{An ear-rape buzzer is heard and a page of the book is shown. It reads "Chapter 7 - Records of Loneliness, Biggest Waste of Shit: Streng "The Biggest Waste of Shit" SAS." The picture shows Strong Sad looking through his magnifying glass at the camera, smiling up-side down.}

{Cut to the King of Town's castle. The King of Town is seen with a giant pile of salt with glowing dark colors in front of him. Strong Bad walks up.}

STRONG BAD: All right, King o' Town, I need some disgusting eating records. Why don't you just, uh, have lunch, and I'm sure you'll set several without even trying.

THE KING OF TOWN: Ooh! I like eating lunch!

{The camera pans over, and we can now see the entire pile. We can also see a salt shaker labeled with the number "7" sitting near the pile.}

THE KING OF TOWN: Vwoooooooooooooooooo.......!

{The King sucks the entire scene in in one gulp, like a vacuum cleaner, including the salt shaker,the KoT's Castle, and Strong Bad.}

{Fades to the outside of the KoT's castle and we see the KoT suck up the castle, the field, and the sky.}

{Fades to the KoT in space sucking up the Earth and the stars; after 13 seconds, the KoT stops sucking and the camera zooms into his stomach}

STRONG BAD: {echoing from the KoT's stomach} Whoa! Nice woik!

{A robotic-sounding buzzer emits, another page that reads "Chapter 3 - The King of Town Vacuum." The King "hiccups".}

{Cut to Homestar Runner in The Field on his soapbox, which now reads "Copyright 2012 Viacom."}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: What do you call a redneck, with no teeth? Ba-ha-ha-haaa! Man, they do not wear underwear!

{Cut to Strong Bad and Coach Z, also in The Field.}

STRONG BAD: So, Coach Z, what kind of wonderment do you have in store for us?

COACH Z: Well, I'm gonna set the world record for puttin' nine pieces {starts putting chewed gum with rainbow colors on his face} of chewed gum up on my face and hop around on one foot! {He starts hopping on one foot.}

STRONG BAD: Coach...

{Cuts quickly to text that reads, "There was no such record."}

{Homestar pops up.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: What does a redneck man call a dead redneck lyin' in the middle of the road? Ba-ha-ha-haa! Probably roadkill!

{An unseen audience groans. Patrick Star pops up laughing his ass off from the SpongeBob episode "Culture Shock".}

{Cut back to the Lappy.}

STRONG BAD: {typing} Well, I think we're just about done here. Oh, wait, I forgot about me. I gots to get in this record book somehow. I'll get the record for...

{Cut back to show The Cheat standing nearby.}

THE CHEAT: {makes The Cheat noises}

STRONG BAD: What?!

THE CHEAT: {makes The Cheat noises and puts his hands on his hips}

STRONG BAD: What a bunch of bull {making his mouth as round as possible} shhiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII {as Strong Bad is droning, a mad mix of wierd and creepy images from Creepypasta appear in his mouth}—

{A Vocoder buzzer is heard, followed by a page appears that reads "Chapter 7 - Saying Words For A Long Time Records, Longest 'Bullshit', 13.4 Seconds: The Human Strong Bad." The picture shows Strong Bad in the same position he was just seen in.}

STRONG BAD: —shit. Bullshit.

{The Paper comes down with text reading "Copyright 2012 Viacom"}
