Dear Strong Bad, Respond to this E-Mail in the funniest way ever. From Sam

STRONG BAD: {typing} Let's see here...I can tape this blank floppy disk to my head {he doesn't actually type blank} and start talking gibberish and acting like the crazy squeaky guy. LEEKO! LEEKO! LEEKO! I'm a squeaky guy! {jumps up on the table and starts dancing around} I got squeaky pants! Come check out my squeaky pants dance! Squee squaw squee squaw squee squaw {a bottle of ketchup falls from the ceiling into his hands and he starts pouring it over everything and hitting the keyboard with his foot, producing "WHOA!! I CAN TYPE WITH ONE FOOT!"} punkity punkity punkity punkity punkity punkity punkity punkity punkity punkity punkity punkity! Aunt Ruthie! Aunt Ruthie! There's ketchup on the computer! Halzee-WHOOP!
{He leaps from the table backwards and starts bouncing around the floor on his head}
Punk-REER! Punk-REER! Punk-REER! Punk-REER! Punk-REER! Punk-REER!
{He runs up to Strong Sad and starts yelling rhyming gibberish at him.}

STRONG SAD: Quit that!
STRONG BAD: Ooka Reetoo Taw!
STRONG SAD: You're freakin' me out.
STRONG BAD: {pauses shortly, then continues} Eeckoo Ickoo Ickoo Slaw! Hooka Hoo Ha!
STRONG SAD: Did you take some of my pills again?
{Cut to Compy. Bubs and The Cheat are dipping fries in the ketchup poured over the computer.}
BUBS: You know what? You're right, The Cheat! This computer ketchup is better than the regular kind! Or that purple kind.
{Strong Bad walks back in}
STRONG BAD: Alright alright. Clear outta here, you two! 'Cept for you, The Cheat. {The Cheat grumbles} You better start cleaning this mess up!
BUBS: What happened in here? Some type of ketchup bomb go off?
STRONG BAD: Nah, not really. I was answering an e-mail and dancing and acting like a squeaky guy and I started throwing ketchup everywhere.
BUBS: Oh. That's pretty cool.
{Strong Bad does a double-take behind him to make sure nobody's around.}
STRONG BAD: {sotto voce to Bubs} Hey man, are ketchup bombs real?
BUBS: Not yet! {walks off}
STRONG BAD: {to the Cheat} Well? Aren't you gonna go get your 409 or Awesome Sauce or whatever you're gonna clean this up with? {The Cheat squeaks at him and starts heading off} Maybe a moist chamois? {tries a fry with the computer ketchup} Ooh! This computer ketchup is pretty good! Needs more RAM, though. Maybe a couple of megachips.
{The Paper comes down.}
Easter Eggs
- If you click on Strong Bad's head while he is spinning upside down (the floppy disk itself does not work), Homestar will come out to say something funny. It may take a few tries to get it, you have to be quite quick.
- {Homestar Runner walks in from the left. Strong Bad re-enters from the right, still bouncing on his head and spouting his gibberish.}
- HOMESTAR RUNNER: Um... hi, Strong Bad. I was just stopping by to do something funny, but, um... I can see you don't need my help this week.
- {Strong Bad bounces off to the left while Homestar looks on.}
- At the very end you can click on a blob of ketchup near the left fries to see the ketchup bottle.
Fun Facts
Remarks
- The ketchup bottle falls from the sky into his hand!
Goofs
- When he says "I could put this blank floppy disk on my head" he does not type the word blank.
The tape for the disk appears behind the text on the screen.
Glitches
- When Strong Bad tapes the floppy disk to his head, the contrast dial does not affect it.
Inside References
- The sounds Strong Bad makes when he is next to Strong Sad are the exact ones from his e-mail song in big white face.
Real-World References
- Chamois is actually pronounced "Shammy." Strong Bad pronounces it "Sham-oyce," like it's spelled.
- The Purple Ketchup Bubs mentions does exist.
- The way Strong Bad says "funniest way ever" sounds very similar to the way The Simpsons character Comic Book Guy says "Worst episode ever."
- 409 is a reference to Formula 409, a cleaner/degreaser by Clorox.
