What the dragon said

The Dragon's Chest said (in a spiral starting at the left most and going clockwise to the middle) 'Sudden Death' 'Pots N' Pans' 'Puree' 'Tumble Dry' 'Sanitize'. This could be an example of a middle aged convenience machine, used to clean and cook.

Arguments for:

  • This seems like the just type of fun fact that should be and is all over hrwiki.org.

Arguments against:

  • Too many combinations of machines: blenders, dishwashers, clothes dryers... If it was a gag, it'd be more to just one.
  • If that's indeed TBC's intention, then that would be explaining the joke.


Additional comments:

  • This is so absolutely speculative as to be completely unnotable.
  • Do "middle aged convenience machines" really exist? I'm not quite sure what the supposed reference is here...
    • Perhaps the allusion under question is to The Flintstones, whose appliances all consisted of animals and dinosaurs? (Not sure, but that's what this proposed fun fact made me think of.)
  • About the above argument against: If that's indeed TBC's intention, then that would be explaining the joke.
    • How is it explaining the joke? It's explaining the reference (if indeed there's a reference at all); therefore, it would be a perfectly acceptable fun fact.
      • A reference to what? There's no such thing as a "middle aged convenience machine". Are you trying to tell us that medieval knights used dragons as convenience machines?

Sample of Old Style?

The animation flaws are probably a reference to the "King of Town"/"In Search of the Yello Dello" era when the animation was much less neat than it is now.

Arguments for:

  • It's a valid reference and worth noting.

Arguments against:

  • They style is meant to show that the animation is a cartoon show, not "real" Homestar Universe
  • Not obviously stated in the toon, as TBC normally do for fun facts.
  • Animation flaws? What animation flaws?
  • The style is completely different and bears no resemblance to the earlier animation style.
  • Note also that there are several other examples of different animation styles used in Toons and Shorts. See The Reddest Radish for another example.
  • This might also be the begining of a new short toon series, in which case the "animation flaws" would be discarded
  • I don't see any of these intensional animation flaws. Where are they?
