<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' So, in honor of Trogdor's 20th birthday, I was digging through some old stuff and found this long-lost back issue of EGGM! It came with a demo CD that teased the never released VGA version of Peasant's Quest!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the Compy CD-Rompy, Strong Bad's boxing glove puts the CD in the CD tray}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's-a, take a look! <br />
<br />
''{CD-Rom noises play as the Videlectrix logo appears with a white silhouetted Rather Dashing walking across the screen.}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' Coming soon from Videlectrix,<br />
<br />
''{The Peasant's Quest logo appears over the map of Peasantry, the text "VGA Edition" dissolves onto the screen.}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' It's Peasant's Quest like you've never played it before!<br />
<br />
''{A remix of the Peasant's Quest theme plays as a VGA style Rather Dashing walks in front of what resembles a Hobbit house before stopping on the far right of the screen}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' Experience the kingdom of Peasantry in glorious 256 color VGA graphics.<br />
<br />
''{Rather Dashing in the original Peasant's Quest walks to the well, the visuals fade into the VGA graphics, he touches the well and the text box reads "This well has 256 colors."}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' Featuring visuals and sound bites ripped straight from the feature film,<br />
<br />
''{Rather Dashing walks up to his burnt cottage and sighs, a box appears with the head of Rather Dashing from the movie, whose mouth moves slightly when he speaks}''<br />
<br />
'''MOVIE RATHER DASHING''': "Where's my cottage?!"<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the climbing of the cliff to Trogdor's cave, rocks are falling}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' State of the art motionally captured animations,<br />
<br />
''{cut to Rather Dashing, clicking his heels in joy in front of the Hobbit house from earlier, cut to Rather Dashing wandering aimlessly past the Knight, after that it cuts to Rather Dashing, near the well, squatting and picking something up}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' People actually agreed to this!<br />
<br />
''{The Knight has a text box over him with a quote from the movie}''<br />
<br />
'''MOVIE KNIGHT''': "You don't smell like a peasant!"<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Rather Dashing, in his burnt cottage, dancing. A text box appears saying "You're very good at this game."}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a keyboard with live action hands slapping themselves on it.}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' No more typing. <br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the game, where a cursor mouses over several options including walking, a hand icon, talking and throwing.}''<br />

''{The cursor clicks on the throw icon and Rather Dashing throws the baby into the lake. A text box appears saying "Baby thrown."}''<br />
<br />
''{Rather Dashing jauntily walks past the Knight, who shakes his fist at Rather Dashing as he passes.}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' Puzzle your way to the final confrontation<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to Rather Dashing climbing the cliff, this time from a slightly different angle, as he is near the top}''<br />
<br />
''{The inside of Trogdor's Cave is shown, a version of Trogdor resembling the miniature from the Board Game snorts smoke.}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' featuring pants-crapping graphics of Trogdor the Burninator.<br />
<br />
''{Rather Dashing walks towards him and turns around promptly after reaching him. Rocks begin falling from the ceiling. Trogdor roars and Rather Dashing stops, the view is now closer to him and he raises his sword as a fire effect falls from above, frightening him and transitioning to the logo.}'' <br />
<br />
''{The logo for Peasant's Quest appears again. The VGA Edition note now has a white asterisk following the word "VGA" and a note reading "Very Graphics Awesome"}'' <br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' Peasant's Quest VGA Coming Winter of 1994.<br />
<br />
''{as he says this, a spiky yellow bubble reading "Coming Winter '94" appears}''<br />
<br />
''{The Videlectrix logo appears and under it is text writing out what Videlectrix One says, a trademark symbol follows the phrase after he finishes speaking.}''<br />
<br />
'''VIDELECTRIX ONE:''' "We will definitely finish making this game!"<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to Strong Bad, this time flash animated and at the desk from the original dragon email, he has drawn a Trogdor shaped like a two. As he talks, he draws a Trogdor eating its own tail, meant to resemble a zero. }''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well, it's too bad that game never came out, but I have to say, after 20 years Troggy, you still look pretty pants-crapping to me. <br />
<br />
''{A slamming sound is heard as majesty lines are added to the drawing.}''<br />
<br />
''{After a beat, Strong Bad resumes speaking}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' This right here, ''{indicating the drawing}'' turned out a lot bit more disturbing than I intended.<br />
<br />
==Fun Facts==<br />
===Explanations===<br />
* VGA is for short for "Video Graphics Array". Personal Computers that have VGA compatibility allows software to use a palette of 16 or 256 colors.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*Strong Bad's magazine promises screenshots of "Halfthlon". In [[8-Bit Is Enough]], it was spelled [[Halfathlon]].<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*"Electronical Good Graphics Monthly" is a parody of ''{{w|Electronic Gaming Monthly}}'', a popular gaming magazine.<br />
*Trogdor biting down his own tail to make himself resemble a zero is a reference to ''{{w|Ouroboros}}'', a creature from Greek mythology.<br />
*The YouTube upload's description ends in "Do the math!", a reference to the "Do The Math" advertisement campaign for the ''{{w|Atari Jaguar}}''.<br />

<br />
The top corners show that this is the Scales of an Artist Beginner Piano Series produced by [[Cheap As Free]] Music. A caption in the center reads, "New H*R sheet music everyday!"<br />
<br />
Along the bottom are two rows of numbers. All but the first number were dimmed upon first release and lit up one-by-one as the month progressed. Clicking a lit number opens up the booklet to the sheet music for that day, which also features characters and diagrams.<br />

|description = The King of Town stands alone with his arms across his chest, tongue sticking out, moved to tears with some emotion, or possibly choking.<br />
<br />
Pom Pom, Homestar Runner, and Marzipan stand in a group in the center. Homestar and Marzipan are looking pleasantly at each other while Pom Pom has a neutral or unimpressed expression.<br />
<br />
A keyboard is featured with the white keys labeled "C D E F G A B C". A caption above it reads, "Remember the keys this a-way: 'Crispy Duck Eggs For Goodness And Badness, Champ!'"<br />

|description = Strong Bad, dressed as an art painter wearing a smock and a beret, stands next to an easel with an S drawn on it. He holds a paintbrush in his right glove and a pizza in his left glove. The pizza vaguely resembles a paint palette.<br />
<br />
A keyboard is shown with "Middlin' C" labeled. Above it is the caption "How to play piano with boxing gloves on". Dashed lines show the outline of where the gloves should go and are labeled "Left-O" and "Right-O".<br />

|description = The Homestar Runner dances with one leg raised and crossed over the other. He smiles broadly, showing a missing tooth. The word "SOUP" is faintly visible on his clothing. <br />
<br />
A dancing chart is featured with numbered outlines of feet and a hand connected by a jumbled mess of dotted arrows. Above it is the caption "The Well-Folks-You-Know-What-That-Means Shuffle".<br />

<br />
Next to him is the same frog from day 4 wearing a straw boater hat and holding a phone.<br />
<br />
Above the title are arms that hold up pieces of paper that say the letters C, N, G, and U in order.<br />
<br />
In the top right, a tuba with eyes is screaming.<br />

The Far Side version shows the exact same thing done in the style of the {{w|The Far Side|Far Side}} comics. A speech bubble above the Dumple reads "Science! I said science again!"<br />

<br />
==Fun Facts==<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*An {{w|Advent calendar}} is used to count the days of {{w|Advent}} in anticipation of Christmas.<br />
* '''Days 1 and 10:''' {{w|Mnemonic}} phrases are often used to memorize the order of various musical elements, like "Every Good Boy Does Fine" for the "E G B D F" of the treble clef lines.<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*All of the sheet music is written in 4/4 time and no listed key signature, and is played on a piano.<br />
*This is the first Decemberween-themed content since [[Dangeresque Puppet Squad: The Hot Jones Hijack]], five years prior.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
* The [[Decemberweenvent Calendar Character Variations|drawing style]] throughout the booklet is more stylized than normal, with most characters [[Lack of Visible Body Parts|gaining noses]] and some [[Lack of Visible Arms|gaining arms]], and being drawn in a style loosely resembling [https://kjos.com/piano/methods/bastien-piano-basics.html Bastien Piano Basics].<br />
* A {{w|Bookbinding#Stitched or sewn binding|saddle-stiched booklet}} should show the staples on the inside only on the center spread, around day 12.<br />
* Most of the song titles come from the [[Homestar Runner Original Soundtrack]]s.<br />
* Prior to day 12, only the intro for that day ever played, and that day's page had to be manually clicked. Beginning with day 12, the current day's intro loads and plays that day's sheet music automatically. The intros for the other days now play when clicking on their respective days, and can be skipped by clicking again on the "Skip" button that results.<br />
* '''Day 1:''' The keyboard keys are clickable, but do nothing.<br />
* '''Day 2:''' The instructions say to "use your staving fingers to play this kids' [[X 'em up|learn'em<!--sic--> up]] song".<br />
* '''Day 3:''' The instructions show [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|how to play piano with boxing gloves on]].<br />
* '''Day 4:''' On days 5–11, Strong Sad still said his line after the song was played, even though the relevant line that preceded it didn't play on the later release days. Beginning with the day 12 update, the relevant line was included.<br />
* '''Day 6:''' The letters on the illustration are in the order C-N-G-U, when the school is [[Crazy Go Nuts University]], or CGNU.<br />
* '''Days 7–10:''' Despite Strong Bad's assertion, his inflection on his line is slightly (and then not-so-slightly) different each day.<br />
* '''Day 10:''' Senor Cardgage's wrestling mask is portrayed as being painted on and he has real hands (one of which is holding a boxing glove).<br />
[[File:3job clean.png|thumb|I can count to G.]]<br />
* '''Day 11:''' There is only a single note that is covered up by Homestar's "bookmark". The fourth measure of the bass line simply consists of rests, while the fifth measure begins with a half note G below low C.<br />
* '''Day 12:''' Though the "back to menu" button disappears when the Cheat Commandos scene slides in, it is still clickable.<br />
* '''Day 14:''' Unlike previous days the song only partially repeats, ending after the fourth measure. However, it is missing the appropriate notation for {{w|List of musical symbols#Repetition and codas|repetition and codas}}.<br />
* '''Day 15:'''<br />
** The lyrics are crammed in where the words go quickly.<br />
** The song is in a different key {{--}} F major rather than C major {{--}} from the version of the song in [[flag day]]. However, the chord progression at the end, F to C, remains the same, resulting in a different cadence: I{{-}}V instead of the {{w|plagal cadence}} IV{{-}}I.<br />
* '''Day 16:''' The sixteenth notes in measures 1, 3, 9, and 11 should be notated as swing eighths.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
* In {{prs|1602670817552531458|12|13|2022|alt=a tweet}}, Strong Bad blamed any issues with the sheet music on the "weirdos at [[Cheap As Free]] Music". He bemoaned his appearance in the booklet and said that "any mistakes are just the musical equivalent of adding human noses."<br />
* "New H*R sheet music everyday" should be "every day".<br />
* Beginning with day 12, when the toon first loads, the transparency on the circle behind the current day is more opaque than the other circles. After the toon finishes and returns to the cover page, its opacity matches the rest of the circles.<br />
* '''Day 3:'''<br />
** The repeat sign is not vertically aligned to the staff.<br />
** The first three notes should be pickups to the first measure. Instead, the first beat of each measure is written as the third beat of the measure, and the notation rhythm is therefore displaced by two beats..<br />
* '''Day 9:''' Several times two notes are written together, but played separately as a grace note.<br />
* '''Day 12:'''<br />
** In both instances where two notes are played together, there should instead be separate grace notes.<br />
<br />
===Fixed Goofs===<br />
* '''Day 12:''' "Probably" was misspelled "probaby". This was fixed with the next update.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The calendar is entitled "Scales of an Artist", after [[Skills of an Artist]].<br />
* '''Day 1:''' "Used to could" is a double modal, much like "[[might could]]".<br />
* '''Day 3:'''<br />
** Strong Mad mentions his stop-motion movie ''[[Doug the Dino]]'' from [[the facts]] (which incidentally did have BGM beyond Strong Mad yelling).<br />
** Strong Bad says that he will look for baking [[chocolate]]. Strong Sad says that he used to eat baking chocolate when there was no chocolate in the house in [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].<br />
**The "S" drawn on the canvas and the label on the canister of coffee grinds that says "Taster's Choice" both refer to [[dragon]].<br />
*'''Day 4:''' <br />
** The images relate to previous audio clips heard from [[Caleb Rentpayer]] throughout the series:<br />
*** The beard is a reference to Tuxworth telling Caleb he can't grow a ZZ Top beard in [[winter pool]].<br />
*** The jacket tent and suitcase full of bricks are from the show's appearance in [[Bug in Mouth Disease]].<br />
*** The guitar with a wedding veil refers to Caleb attempting to marry his guitar, as heard in [[secret recipes]].<br />
** Strong Sad previously mentioned that he "needed some doom and gloom" in [[Happy Hallow-Day]].<br />
*'''Day 5:''' Stinkoman is depicted alongside The Homestar Runner, referring to when both danced together in [[20X6 vs. 1936]]. "The Well-Folks-You-Know-What-That-Means Shuffle" also references this.<br />
*'''Day 6:''' The amoeba Dumple says, "Science! I said science again!" as Homestar did when Strong Bad tried to get him to say something smart in [[stupid stuff]].<br />
*'''Day 7:''' The computer that Videlectrix Two is working at is very similar to the [[Tandy 400]].<br />
*'''Day 8:''' The [[Peanut Strong Bad]] action figure oozes radioactive goo like Strong Bad's hypothetical action figure.<br />
**The croissant represents Strong Bad saying his action figure would be armed with Chinese throwing croissants.<br />
**The pile of pancakes represents that Strong Bad wished his action figure would smell like [[hotcakes]].<br />
*'''Day 9:''' <br />
**The pile of marshmallows with the eyepatch, [[bowler hat]] and [[smoking|cigar]] is Pinner, from [[Meet Marshie]].<br />
**Marshie is also seen stacking marshmallows, an idea first introduced in [[Malloween Commercial]].<br />
*'''Day 10:''' [[Senor Cardgage]] is holding a fast food bag with a chicken leg printed on it, referencing when he asked for Chick-fil-A in [[Senor Mortgage]].<br />
*'''Day 12:''' [[Blue Laser Commander]]'s plan to blow up the ocean and his line "I just hate you so much!" come from the original [[Cheat Commandos (toon)|Cheat Commandos]] toon.<br />
*'''Day 13:''' The [[Teen Girl Squad]] gets "WHOLESOME[['D]]!", each responding with an "[[Ow! My X!]]" line.<br />
*'''Day 14:'''<br />
**Strong Sad's offscreen "I thought ''I'' was..." line was first used in [[Mario Paint Thursdays]].<br />
**Strong Mad previously mentioned a "glowy box" in [[Strong Bad is a Bad Guy]].<br />
*'''Day 16:'''<br />
** Strong Bad, who once said he would never, ever, ever, ever, ever write a song about [[Sibbie]], now wonders if they'll do one for the calendar.<br />
** The song he did "write" was essentially him chanting set to a drum beat, which he supposes wouldn't translate to the piano very well because it doesn't have any notes (although "I Freakin' Hate Sibbie!" did have a few).<br />
** The illustration features [[Tony Stony]], a gift Strong Mad received in the original toon.<br />
** The [[banana]] with the arrow shot through it was a potential gift Homestar plucked out of Bubs's filthy box of aught-four crap.<br />
*'''Day 17:''' <br />
**Strong Bad opens with a song reminiscent of his [[Strong Bad Email Intros|email intro]] to [[techno]].<br />
**In the email [[caper]]:<br />
***Strong Bad and The Cheat were stealing Homestar's newspaper Jumbles.<br />
***The Cheat broke Homestar's [[cow lamp]].<br />
***Homestar had red beard stubble made from [[cinnamon]].<br />
*'''Day 18:''' Strong Bad's intro is again derived from an email intro, this time that of [[butt IQ]].<br />
*'''Day 19:''' Strong Bad attempted to "buy [[Kerrek]] a [[Cold One]]" in the beginning of [[for kids]], and received the error response that the Kerrek was a teetotaler.<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
* '''Day 1:''' {{w|Lego}} has produced Advent calendars, each with 24 doors containing a minifigure or a simple small set, annually since 1998. Recent years have seen multiple calendars released each year, with themes such as [[George Lucas|Star Wars]].<br />
* '''Day 4:''' [[Strong Sad]] mentions he needs "Dickensian" Holiday doom and gloom, referencing author [[Charles Dickens]]. His description of "a stovepipe hat full of gruel, poor air quality, and inhumane working conditions" specifically reflect ''{{w|A Christmas Carol}}'', an iconic Dickens novella whose {{w|Adaptations of A Christmas Carol|adaptations}} have become popular Christmas traditions.<br />
* '''Day 6:''' ''{{w|The Far Side}}'' is a single-panel comic that features absurdist humor and is notable for its depiction of anthropomorphic amoebas and cows, cavemen, and science. For many years, creator Gary Larson produced a yearly tear-off calendar that contained a ''Far Side'' cartoon for each day of the year. Homestar Runner mentions a ''Far Side'' daily calendar on the cover page, and the artwork changes on the sheet music to a ''Far Side'' style after the song finishes playing.<br />
* '''Day 12:''' Blue Laser Commander talks and acts like the [[Hanna-Barbera]] character {{w|Snagglepuss}}, while Reynold similarly acts like {{w|Boo-Boo Bear}}.<br />
* '''Day 16:''' The Frog sticker references ''{{w|Happy Together (song)|So Happy Together}}'' by {{w|The Turtles}}.<br />

The van has a camper top, stripes along the front and side, and a large, airbrushed mural on the side depicting Trogdor breathing fire in a thunderstorm.<br />

In the foreground is a medium-sized square chest with a brass handle, edges, and corners. It is glowing brightly, radiating light in all directions.<br />

<br />
==Fun Facts==<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*An {{w|Advent calendar}} is used to count the days of {{w|Advent}} in anticipation of Christmas.<br />
* '''Days 1 and 10:''' {{w|Mnemonic}} phrases are often used to memorize the order of various musical elements, like "Every Good Boy Does Fine" for the "E G B D F" of the treble clef lines.<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*All of the sheet music is written in 4/4 time and no listed key signature, and is played on a piano.<br />
*This is the first Decemberween-themed content since [[Dangeresque Puppet Squad: The Hot Jones Hijack]], five years prior.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
* The [[Decemberweenvent Calendar Character Variations|drawing style]] throughout the booklet is more stylized than normal, with most characters [[Lack of Visible Body Parts|gaining noses]] and some [[Lack of Visible Arms|gaining arms]], and being drawn in a style loosely resembling [https://kjos.com/piano/methods/bastien-piano-basics.html Bastien Piano Basics].<br />
* A {{w|Bookbinding#Stitched or sewn binding|saddle-stiched booklet}} should show the staples on the inside only on the center spread, around day 12.<br />
* Most of the song titles come from the [[Homestar Runner Original Soundtrack]]s.<br />
* Prior to day 12, only the intro for that day ever played, and that day's page had to be manually clicked. Beginning with day 12, the current day's intro loads and plays that day's sheet music automatically. The intros for the other days now play when clicking on their respective days, and can be skipped by clicking again on the "Skip" button that results.<br />
* '''Day 1:''' The keyboard keys are clickable, but do nothing.<br />
* '''Day 2:''' The instructions say to "use your staving fingers to play this kids' [[X 'em up|learn'em<!--sic--> up]] song".<br />
* '''Day 3:''' The instructions show [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|how to play piano with boxing gloves on]].<br />
* '''Day 4:''' On days 5–11, Strong Sad still said his line after the song was played, even though the relevant line that preceded it didn't play on the later release days. Beginning with the day 12 update, the relevant line was included.<br />
* '''Day 6:''' The letters on the illustration are in the order C-N-G-U, when the school is [[Crazy Go Nuts University]], or CGNU.<br />
* '''Days 7–10:''' Despite Strong Bad's assertion, his inflection on his line is slightly (and then not-so-slightly) different each day.<br />
* '''Day 10:''' Senor Cardgage's wrestling mask is portrayed as being painted on and he has real hands (one of which is holding a boxing glove).<br />
[[File:3job clean.png|thumb|I can count to G.]]<br />
* '''Day 11:''' There is only a single note that is covered up by Homestar's "bookmark". The fourth measure of the bass line simply consists of rests, while the fifth measure begins with a half note G below low C.<br />
* '''Day 12:''' Though the "back to menu" button disappears when the Cheat Commandos scene slides in, it is still clickable.<br />
* '''Day 14:''' Unlike previous days the song only partially repeats, ending after the fourth measure. However, it is missing the appropriate notation for {{w|List of musical symbols#Repetition and codas|repetition and codas}}.<br />
* '''Day 15:'''<br />
** The lyrics are crammed in where the words go quickly.<br />
** The song is in a different key {{--}} F major rather than C major {{--}} from the version of the song in [[flag day]]. However, the chord progression at the end, F to C, remains the same, resulting in a different cadence: I{{-}}V instead of the {{w|plagal cadence}} IV{{-}}I.<br />
* '''Day 16:''' The sixteenth notes in measures 1, 3, 9, and 11 should be notated as swing eighths.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
* In {{prs|1602670817552531458|12|13|2022|alt=a tweet}}, Strong Bad blamed any issues with the sheet music on the "weirdos at [[Cheap As Free]] Music". He bemoaned his appearance in the booklet and said that "any mistakes are just the musical equivalent of adding human noses."<br />
* "New H*R sheet music everyday" should be "every day".<br />
* Beginning with day 12, when the toon first loads, the transparency on the circle behind the current day is more opaque than the other circles. After the toon finishes and returns to the cover page, its opacity matches the rest of the circles.<br />
* '''Day 3:'''<br />
** The repeat sign is not vertically aligned to the staff.<br />
** The first three notes should be pickups to the first measure. Instead, the first beat of each measure is written as the third beat of the measure, and the notation rhythm is therefore displaced by two beats..<br />
* '''Day 9:''' Several times two notes are written together, but played separately as a grace note.<br />
* '''Day 12:'''<br />
** In both instances where two notes are played together, there should instead be separate grace notes.<br />
<br />
===Fixed Goofs===<br />
* '''Day 12:''' "Probably" was misspelled "probaby". This was fixed with the next update.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The calendar is entitled "Scales of an Artist", after [[Skills of an Artist]].<br />
* '''Day 1:''' "Used to could" is a double modal, much like "[[might could]]".<br />
* '''Day 3:'''<br />
** Strong Mad mentions his stop-motion movie ''[[Doug the Dino]]'' from [[the facts]] (which incidentally did have BGM beyond Strong Mad yelling).<br />
** Strong Bad says that he will look for baking [[chocolate]]. Strong Sad says that he used to eat baking chocolate when there was no chocolate in the house in [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].<br />
**The "S" drawn on the canvas and the label on the canister of coffee grinds that says "Taster's Choice" both refer to [[dragon]].<br />
*'''Day 4:''' <br />
** The images relate to previous audio clips heard from [[Caleb Rentpayer]] throughout the series:<br />
*** The beard is a reference to Tuxworth telling Caleb he can't grow a ZZ Top beard in [[winter pool]].<br />
*** The jacket tent and suitcase full of bricks are from the show's appearance in [[Bug in Mouth Disease]].<br />
*** The guitar with a wedding veil refers to Caleb attempting to marry his guitar, as heard in [[secret recipes]].<br />
** Strong Sad previously mentioned that he "needed some doom and gloom" in [[Happy Hallow-Day]].<br />
*'''Day 5:''' Stinkoman is depicted alongside The Homestar Runner, referring to when both danced together in [[20X6 vs. 1936]]. "The Well-Folks-You-Know-What-That-Means Shuffle" also references this.<br />
*'''Day 6:''' The amoeba Dumple says, "Science! I said science again!" as Homestar did when Strong Bad tried to get him to say something smart in [[stupid stuff]].<br />
*'''Day 7:''' The computer that Videlectrix Two is working at is very similar to the [[Tandy 400]].<br />
*'''Day 8:''' The [[Peanut Strong Bad]] action figure oozes radioactive goo like Strong Bad's hypothetical action figure.<br />
**The croissant represents Strong Bad saying his action figure would be armed with Chinese throwing croissants.<br />
**The pile of pancakes represents that Strong Bad wished his action figure would smell like [[hotcakes]].<br />
*'''Day 9:''' <br />
**The pile of marshmallows with the eyepatch, [[bowler hat]] and [[smoking|cigar]] is Pinner, from [[Meet Marshie]].<br />
**Marshie is also seen stacking marshmallows, an idea first introduced in [[Malloween Commercial]].<br />
*'''Day 10:''' [[Senor Cardgage]] is holding a fast food bag with a chicken leg printed on it, referencing when he asked for Chick-fil-A in [[Senor Mortgage]].<br />
*'''Day 12:''' [[Blue Laser Commander]]'s plan to blow up the ocean and his line "I just hate you so much!" come from the original [[Cheat Commandos (toon)|Cheat Commandos]] toon.<br />
*'''Day 13:''' The [[Teen Girl Squad]] gets "WHOLESOME[['D]]!", each responding with an "[[Ow! My X!]]" line.<br />
*'''Day 14:'''<br />
**Strong Sad's offscreen "I thought ''I'' was..." line was first used in [[Mario Paint Thursdays]].<br />
**Strong Mad previously mentioned a "glowy box" in [[Strong Bad is a Bad Guy]].<br />
*'''Day 16:'''<br />
** Strong Bad, who once said he would never, ever, ever, ever, ever write a song about [[Sibbie]], now wonders if they'll do one for the calendar.<br />
** The song he did "write" was essentially him chanting set to a drum beat, which he supposes wouldn't translate to the piano very well because it doesn't have any notes (although "I Freakin' Hate Sibbie!" did have a few).<br />
** The illustration features [[Tony Stony]], a gift Strong Mad received in the original toon.<br />
** The [[banana]] with the arrow shot through it was a potential gift Homestar plucked out of Bubs's filthy box of aught-four crap.<br />
*'''Day 17:''' <br />
**Strong Bad opens with a song reminiscent of his [[Strong Bad Email Intros|email intro]] to [[techno]].<br />
**In the email [[caper]]:<br />
***Strong Bad and The Cheat were stealing Homestar's newspaper Jumbles.<br />
***The Cheat broke Homestar's [[cow lamp]].<br />
***Homestar had red beard stubble made from [[cinnamon]].<br />
*'''Day 18:''' Strong Bad's intro is again derived from an email intro, this time that of [[butt IQ]].<br />
*'''Day 19:''' Strong Bad attempted to "buy [[Kerrek]] a [[Cold One]]" in the beginning of [[for kids]], and received the error response that the Kerrek was a teetotaler.<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
* '''Day 1:''' {{w|Lego}} has produced Advent calendars, each with 24 doors containing a minifigure or a simple small set, annually since 1998. Recent years have seen multiple calendars released each year, with themes such as [[George Lucas|Star Wars]].<br />
* '''Day 4:''' [[Strong Sad]] mentions he needs "Dickensian" Holiday doom and gloom, referencing author [[Charles Dickens]]. His description of "a stovepipe hat full of gruel, poor air quality, and inhumane working conditions" specifically reflect ''{{w|A Christmas Carol}}'', an iconic Dickens novella whose {{w|Adaptations of A Christmas Carol|adaptations}} have become popular Christmas traditions.<br />
* '''Day 6:''' ''{{w|The Far Side}}'' is a single-panel comic that features absurdist humor and is notable for its depiction of anthropomorphic amoebas and cows, cavemen, and science. For many years, creator Gary Larson produced a yearly tear-off calendar that contained a ''Far Side'' cartoon for each day of the year. Homestar Runner mentions a ''Far Side'' daily calendar on the cover page, and the artwork changes on the sheet music to a ''Far Side'' style after the song finishes playing.<br />
* '''Day 12:''' Blue Laser Commander talks and acts like the [[Hanna-Barbera]] character {{w|Snagglepuss}}, while Reynold similarly acts like {{w|Boo-Boo Bear}}.<br />
* '''Day 16:''' The Frog sticker references ''{{w|Happy Together (song)|So Happy Together}}'' by {{w|The Turtles}}.<br />

==Fun Facts==<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*An {{w|Advent calendar}} is used to count the days of {{w|Advent}} in anticipation of Christmas.<br />
* '''Days 1 and 10:''' {{w|Mnemonic}} phrases are often used to memorize the order of various musical elements, like "Every Good Boy Does Fine" for the "E G B D F" of the treble clef lines.<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*All of the sheet music is written in 4/4 time and no listed key signature, and is played on a piano.<br />
*This is the first Decemberween-themed content since [[Dangeresque Puppet Squad: The Hot Jones Hijack]], five years prior.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
* The [[Decemberweenvent Calendar Character Variations|drawing style]] throughout the booklet is more stylized than normal, with most characters [[Lack of Visible Body Parts|gaining noses]] and some [[Lack of Visible Arms|gaining arms]], and being drawn in a style loosely resembling [https://kjos.com/piano/methods/bastien-piano-basics.html Bastien Piano Basics].<br />
* A {{w|Bookbinding#Stitched or sewn binding|saddle-stiched booklet}} should show the staples on the inside only on the center spread, around day 12.<br />
* Most of the song titles come from the [[Homestar Runner Original Soundtrack]]s.<br />
* Prior to day 12, only the intro for that day ever played, and that day's page had to be manually clicked. Beginning with day 12, the current day's intro loads and plays that day's sheet music automatically. The intros for the other days now play when clicking on their respective days, and can be skipped by clicking again on the "Skip" button that results.<br />
* '''Day 1:''' The keyboard keys are clickable, but do nothing.<br />
* '''Day 2:''' The instructions say to "use your staving fingers to play this kids' [[X 'em up|learn'em<!--sic--> up]] song".<br />
* '''Day 3:''' The instructions show [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|how to play piano with boxing gloves on]].<br />
* '''Day 4:''' On days 5–11, Strong Sad still said his line after the song was played, even though the relevant line that preceded it didn't play on the later release days. Beginning with the day 12 update, the relevant line was included.<br />
* '''Day 6:''' The letters on the illustration are in the order C-N-G-U, when the school is [[Crazy Go Nuts University]], or CGNU.<br />
* '''Days 7–10:''' Despite Strong Bad's assertion, his inflection on his line is slightly (and then not-so-slightly) different each day.<br />
* '''Day 10:''' Senor Cardgage's wrestling mask is portrayed as being painted on and he has real hands (one of which is holding a boxing glove).<br />
[[File:3job clean.png|thumb|I can count to G.]]<br />
* '''Day 11:''' There is only a single note that is covered up by Homestar's "bookmark". The fourth measure of the bass line simply consists of rests, while the fifth measure begins with a half note G below low C.<br />
* '''Day 12:''' Though the "back to menu" button disappears when the Cheat Commandos scene slides in, it is still clickable.<br />
* '''Day 14:''' Unlike previous days the song only partially repeats, ending after the fourth measure. However, it is missing the appropriate notation for {{w|List of musical symbols#Repetition and codas|repetition and codas}}.<br />
* '''Day 15:'''<br />
** The lyrics are crammed in where the words go quickly.<br />
** The song is in a different key {{--}} F major rather than C major {{--}} from the version of the song in [[flag day]]. However, the chord progression at the end, F to C, remains the same, resulting in a different cadence: I{{-}}V instead of the {{w|plagal cadence}} IV{{-}}I.<br />
* '''Day 16:''' The sixteenth notes in measures 1, 3, 9, and 11 should be notated as swing eighths.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
* In {{prs|1602670817552531458|12|13|2022|alt=a tweet}}, Strong Bad blamed any issues with the sheet music on the "weirdos at [[Cheap As Free]] Music". He bemoaned his appearance in the booklet and said that "any mistakes are just the musical equivalent of adding human noses."<br />
* "New H*R sheet music everyday" should be "every day".<br />
* Beginning with day 12, when the toon first loads, the transparency on the circle behind the current day is more opaque than the other circles. After the toon finishes and returns to the cover page, its opacity matches the rest of the circles.<br />
* '''Day 3:'''<br />
** The repeat sign is not vertically aligned to the staff.<br />
** The first three notes should be pickups to the first measure. Instead, the first beat of each measure is written as the third beat of the measure, and the notation rhythm is therefore displaced by two beats..<br />
* '''Day 9:''' Several times two notes are written together, but played separately as a grace note.<br />
* '''Day 12:'''<br />
** In both instances where two notes are played together, there should instead be separate grace notes.<br />
<br />
===Fixed Goofs===<br />
* '''Day 12:''' "Probably" was misspelled "probaby". This was fixed with the next update.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The calendar is entitled "Scales of an Artist", after [[Skills of an Artist]].<br />
* '''Day 1:''' "Used to could" is a double modal, much like "[[might could]]".<br />
* '''Day 3:'''<br />
** Strong Mad mentions his stop-motion movie ''[[Doug the Dino]]'' from [[the facts]] (which incidentally did have BGM beyond Strong Mad yelling).<br />
** Strong Bad says that he will look for baking [[chocolate]]. Strong Sad says that he used to eat baking chocolate when there was no chocolate in the house in [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].<br />
**The "S" drawn on the canvas and the label on the canister of coffee grinds that says "Taster's Choice" both refer to [[dragon]].<br />
*'''Day 4:''' <br />
** The images relate to previous audio clips heard from [[Caleb Rentpayer]] throughout the series:<br />
*** The beard is a reference to Tuxworth telling Caleb he can't grow a ZZ Top beard in [[winter pool]].<br />
*** The jacket tent and suitcase full of bricks are from the show's appearance in [[Bug in Mouth Disease]].<br />
*** The guitar with a wedding veil refers to Caleb attempting to marry his guitar, as heard in [[secret recipes]].<br />
** Strong Sad previously mentioned that he "needed some doom and gloom" in [[Happy Hallow-Day]].<br />
*'''Day 5:''' Stinkoman is depicted alongside The Homestar Runner, referring to when both danced together in [[20X6 vs. 1936]]. "The Well-Folks-You-Know-What-That-Means Shuffle" also references this.<br />
*'''Day 6:''' The amoeba Dumple says, "Science! I said science again!" as Homestar did when Strong Bad tried to get him to say something smart in [[stupid stuff]].<br />
*'''Day 7:''' The computer that Videlectrix Two is working at is very similar to the [[Tandy 400]].<br />
*'''Day 8:''' The [[Peanut Strong Bad]] action figure oozes radioactive goo like Strong Bad's hypothetical action figure.<br />
**The croissant represents Strong Bad saying his action figure would be armed with Chinese throwing croissants.<br />
**The pile of pancakes represents that Strong Bad wished his action figure would smell like [[hotcakes]].<br />
*'''Day 9:''' <br />
**The pile of marshmallows with the eyepatch, [[bowler hat]] and [[smoking|cigar]] is Pinner, from [[Meet Marshie]].<br />
**Marshie is also seen stacking marshmallows, an idea first introduced in [[Malloween Commercial]].<br />
*'''Day 10:''' [[Senor Cardgage]] is holding a fast food bag with a chicken leg printed on it, referencing when he asked for Chick-fil-A in [[Senor Mortgage]].<br />
*'''Day 12:''' [[Blue Laser Commander]]'s plan to blow up the ocean and his line "I just hate you so much!" come from the original [[Cheat Commandos (toon)|Cheat Commandos]] toon.<br />
*'''Day 13:''' The [[Teen Girl Squad]] gets "WHOLESOME[['D]]!", each responding with an "[[Ow! My X!]]" line.<br />
*'''Day 14:'''<br />
**Strong Sad's offscreen "I thought ''I'' was..." line was first used in [[Mario Paint Thursdays]].<br />
**Strong Mad previously mentioned a "glowy box" in [[Strong Bad is a Bad Guy]].<br />
*'''Day 16:'''<br />
** Strong Bad, who once said he would never, ever, ever, ever, ever write a song about [[Sibbie]], now wonders if they'll do one for the calendar.<br />
** The song he did "write" was essentially him chanting set to a drum beat, which he supposes wouldn't translate to the piano very well because it doesn't have any notes (although "I Freakin' Hate Sibbie!" did have a few).<br />
** The illustration features [[Tony Stony]], a gift Strong Mad received in the original toon.<br />
** The [[banana]] with the arrow shot through it was a potential gift Homestar plucked out of Bubs's filthy box of aught-four crap.<br />
*'''Day 17:''' <br />
**Strong Bad opens with a song reminiscent of his [[Strong Bad Email Intros|email intro]] to [[techno]].<br />
**In the email [[caper]]:<br />
***Strong Bad and The Cheat were stealing Homestar's newspaper Jumbles.<br />
***The Cheat broke Homestar's [[cow lamp]].<br />
***Homestar had red beard stubble made from [[cinnamon]].<br />
*'''Day 18:''' Strong Bad's intro is again derived from an email intro, this time that of [[butt IQ]].<br />
*'''Day 19:''' Strong Bad attempted to "buy [[Kerrek]] a [[Cold One]]" in the beginning of [[for kids]], and received the error response that the Kerrek was a teetotaler.<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
* '''Day 1:''' {{w|Lego}} has produced Advent calendars, each with 24 doors containing a minifigure or a simple small set, annually since 1998. Recent years have seen multiple calendars released each year, with themes such as [[George Lucas|Star Wars]].<br />
* '''Day 4:''' [[Strong Sad]] mentions he needs "Dickensian" Holiday doom and gloom, referencing author [[Charles Dickens]]. His description of "a stovepipe hat full of gruel, poor air quality, and inhumane working conditions" specifically reflect ''{{w|A Christmas Carol}}'', an iconic Dickens novella whose {{w|Adaptations of A Christmas Carol|adaptations}} have become popular Christmas traditions.<br />
* '''Day 6:''' ''{{w|The Far Side}}'' is a single-panel comic that features absurdist humor and is notable for its depiction of anthropomorphic amoebas and cows, cavemen, and science. For many years, creator Gary Larson produced a yearly tear-off calendar that contained a ''Far Side'' cartoon for each day of the year. Homestar Runner mentions a ''Far Side'' daily calendar on the cover page, and the artwork changes on the sheet music to a ''Far Side'' style after the song finishes playing.<br />
* '''Day 12:''' Blue Laser Commander talks and acts like the [[Hanna-Barbera]] character {{w|Snagglepuss}}, while Reynold similarly acts like {{w|Boo-Boo Bear}}.<br />
* '''Day 16:''' The Frog sticker references ''{{w|Happy Together (song)|So Happy Together}}'' by {{w|The Turtles}}.<br />

At the top left a roll of toilet paper and an egg look at each other and smile. A little less than a square's worth of the roll hangs free and the egg has no shell.<br />
<br />
At the top right is a carved pumpkin that vaguely resembles Homestar Runner with triangle eyes. A pair of leaves form the beanie propellers. Coming out of its wide mouth are pumpkin seeds that resemble spittle.<br />
<br />
Covering all of the bass staff of measure 4, the first note of the bass staff of measure 5, and the first half of the treble staff of measure 8 is an irregular smudge of real-life melted chocolate. A bright red foil wrapper has been flattened and is visible through the chocolate in various places.<br />

Gunhaver points sharply at Blue Laser Commander and seems to be loudly saying something. Blue Laser Commander looks back at them with a defiant expression.<br />

The van has a camper top, stripes along the front and side, and a large, airbrushed mural on the side depicting Trogdor breathing fire in a thunderstorm.<br />

==Fun Facts==<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*An {{w|Advent calendar}} is used to count the days of {{w|Advent}} in anticipation of Christmas.<br />
* '''Days 1 and 10:''' {{w|Mnemonic}} phrases are often used to memorize the order of various musical elements, like "Every Good Boy Does Fine" for the "E G B D F" of the treble clef lines.<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*All of the sheet music is written in 4/4 time and no listed key signature, and is played on a piano.<br />
*This is the first Decemberween-themed content since [[Dangeresque Puppet Squad: The Hot Jones Hijack]], five years prior.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
* The [[Decemberweenvent Calendar Character Variations|drawing style]] throughout the booklet is more stylized than normal, with most characters [[Lack of Visible Body Parts|gaining noses]] and some [[Lack of Visible Arms|gaining arms]], and being drawn in a style loosely resembling [https://kjos.com/piano/methods/bastien-piano-basics.html Bastien Piano Basics].<br />
* A {{w|Bookbinding#Stitched or sewn binding|saddle-stiched booklet}} should show the staples on the inside only on the center spread, around day 12.<br />
* Most of the song titles come from the [[Homestar Runner Original Soundtrack]]s.<br />
* Prior to day 12, only the intro for that day ever played, and that day's page had to be manually clicked. Beginning with day 12, the current day's intro loads and plays that day's sheet music automatically. The intros for the other days now play when clicking on their respective days, and can be skipped by clicking again on the "Skip" button that results.<br />
* '''Day 1:''' The keyboard keys are clickable, but do nothing.<br />
* '''Day 2:''' The instructions say to "use your staving fingers to play this kids' [[X 'em up|learn'em<!--sic--> up]] song".<br />
* '''Day 3:''' The instructions show [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|how to play piano with boxing gloves on]].<br />
* '''Day 4:''' On days 5–11, Strong Sad still said his line after the song was played, even though the relevant line that preceded it didn't play on the later release days. Beginning with the day 12 update, the relevant line was included.<br />
* '''Day 6:''' The letters on the illustration are in the order C-N-G-U, when the school is [[Crazy Go Nuts University]], or CGNU.<br />
* '''Days 7–10:''' Despite Strong Bad's assertion, his inflection on his line is slightly (and then not-so-slightly) different each day.<br />
* '''Day 10:''' Senor Cardgage's wrestling mask is portrayed as being painted on and he has real hands (one of which is holding a boxing glove).<br />
[[File:3job clean.png|thumb|I can count to G.]]<br />
* '''Day 11:''' There is only a single note that is covered up by Homestar's "bookmark". The fourth measure of the bass line simply consists of rests, while the fifth measure begins with a half note G below low C.<br />
* '''Day 12:''' Though the "back to menu" button disappears when the Cheat Commandos scene slides in, it is still clickable.<br />
* '''Day 14:''' Unlike previous days the song only partially repeats, ending after the fourth measure. However, it is missing the appropriate notation for {{w|List of musical symbols#Repetition and codas|repetition and codas}}.<br />
* '''Day 15:'''<br />
** The lyrics are crammed in where the words go quickly.<br />
** The song is in a different key {{--}} F major rather than C major {{--}} from the version of the song in [[flag day]]. However, the chord progression at the end, F to C, remains the same, resulting in a different cadence: I{{-}}V instead of the {{w|plagal cadence}} IV{{-}}I.<br />
* '''Day 16:''' The sixteenth notes in measures 1, 3, 9, and 11 should be notated as swing eighths.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
* In {{prs|1602670817552531458|12|13|2022|alt=a tweet}}, Strong Bad blamed any issues with the sheet music on the "weirdos at [[Cheap As Free]] Music". He bemoaned his appearance in the booklet and said that "any mistakes are just the musical equivalent of adding human noses."<br />
* "New H*R sheet music everyday" should be "every day".<br />
* Beginning with day 12, when the toon first loads, the transparency on the circle behind the current day is more opaque than the other circles. After the toon finishes and returns to the cover page, its opacity matches the rest of the circles.<br />
* '''Day 3:'''<br />
** The repeat sign is not vertically aligned to the staff.<br />
** The first three notes should be pickups to the first measure. Instead, the first beat of each measure is written as the third beat of the measure, and the notation rhythm is therefore displaced by two beats..<br />
* '''Day 9:''' Several times two notes are written together, but played separately as a grace note.<br />
* '''Day 12:'''<br />
** In both instances where two notes are played together, there should instead be separate grace notes.<br />
<br />
===Fixed Goofs===<br />
* '''Day 12:''' "Probably" was misspelled "probaby". This was fixed with the next update.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The calendar is entitled "Scales of an Artist", after [[Skills of an Artist]].<br />
* '''Day 1:''' "Used to could" is a double modal, much like "[[might could]]".<br />
* '''Day 3:'''<br />
** Strong Mad mentions his stop-motion movie ''[[Doug the Dino]]'' from [[the facts]] (which incidentally did have BGM beyond Strong Mad yelling).<br />
** Strong Bad says that he will look for baking [[chocolate]]. Strong Sad says that he used to eat baking chocolate when there was no chocolate in the house in [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].<br />
**The "S" drawn on the canvas and the label on the canister of coffee grinds that says "Taster's Choice" both refer to [[dragon]].<br />
*'''Day 4:''' <br />
** The images relate to previous audio clips heard from [[Caleb Rentpayer]] throughout the series:<br />
*** The beard is a reference to Tuxworth telling Caleb he can't grow a ZZ Top beard in [[winter pool]].<br />
*** The jacket tent and suitcase full of bricks are from the show's appearance in [[Bug in Mouth Disease]].<br />
*** The guitar with a wedding veil refers to Caleb attempting to marry his guitar, as heard in [[secret recipes]].<br />
** Strong Sad previously mentioned that he "needed some doom and gloom" in [[Happy Hallow-Day]].<br />
*'''Day 5:''' Stinkoman is depicted alongside The Homestar Runner, referring to when both danced together in [[20X6 vs. 1936]]. "The Well-Folks-You-Know-What-That-Means Shuffle" also references this.<br />
*'''Day 6:''' The amoeba Dumple says, "Science! I said science again!" as Homestar did when Strong Bad tried to get him to say something smart in [[stupid stuff]].<br />
*'''Day 7:''' The computer that Videlectrix Two is working at is very similar to the [[Tandy 400]].<br />
*'''Day 8:''' The [[Peanut Strong Bad]] action figure oozes radioactive goo like Strong Bad's hypothetical action figure.<br />
**The croissant represents Strong Bad saying his action figure would be armed with Chinese throwing croissants.<br />
**The pile of pancakes represents that Strong Bad wished his action figure would smell like [[hotcakes]].<br />
*'''Day 9:''' <br />
**The pile of marshmallows with the eyepatch, [[bowler hat]] and [[smoking|cigar]] is Pinner, from [[Meet Marshie]].<br />
**Marshie is also seen stacking marshmallows, an idea first introduced in [[Malloween Commercial]].<br />
*'''Day 10:''' [[Senor Cardgage]] is holding a fast food bag with a chicken leg printed on it, referencing when he asked for Chick-fil-A in [[Senor Mortgage]].<br />
*'''Day 12:''' [[Blue Laser Commander]]'s plan to blow up the ocean and his line "I just hate you so much!" come from the original [[Cheat Commandos (toon)|Cheat Commandos]] toon.<br />
*'''Day 13:''' The [[Teen Girl Squad]] gets "WHOLESOME[['D]]!", each responding with an "[[Ow! My X!]]" line.<br />
*'''Day 14:'''<br />
**Strong Sad's offscreen "I thought ''I'' was..." line was first used in [[Mario Paint Thursdays]].<br />
**Strong Mad previously mentioned a "glowy box" in [[Strong Bad is a Bad Guy]].<br />
*'''Day 16:'''<br />
** Strong Bad, who once said he would never, ever, ever, ever, ever write a song about [[Sibbie]], now wonders if they'll do one for the calendar.<br />
** The song he did "write" was essentially him chanting set to a drum beat, which he supposes wouldn't translate to the piano very well because it doesn't have any notes (although "I Freakin' Hate Sibbie!" did have a few).<br />
** The illustration features [[Tony Stony]], a gift Strong Mad received in the original toon.<br />
** The [[banana]] with the arrow shot through it was a potential gift Homestar plucked out of Bubs's filthy box of aught-four crap.<br />
*'''Day 17:''' <br />
**Strong Bad opens with a song reminiscent of his [[Strong Bad Email Intros|email intro]] to [[techno]].<br />
**In the email [[caper]]:<br />
***Strong Bad and The Cheat were stealing Homestar's newspaper Jumbles.<br />
***The Cheat broke Homestar's [[cow lamp]].<br />
***Homestar had red beard stubble made from [[cinnamon]].<br />
*'''Day 18:''' Strong Bad's intro is again derived from an email intro, this time that of [[butt IQ]].<br />
*'''Day 19:''' Strong Bad attempted to "buy [[Kerrek]] a [[Cold One]]" in the beginning of [[for kids]], and received the error response that the Kerrek was a teetotaler.<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
* '''Day 1:''' {{w|Lego}} has produced Advent calendars, each with 24 doors containing a minifigure or a simple small set, annually since 1998. Recent years have seen multiple calendars released each year, with themes such as [[George Lucas|Star Wars]].<br />
* '''Day 4:''' [[Strong Sad]] mentions he needs "Dickensian" Holiday doom and gloom, referencing author [[Charles Dickens]]. His description of "a stovepipe hat full of gruel, poor air quality, and inhumane working conditions" specifically reflect ''{{w|A Christmas Carol}}'', an iconic Dickens novella whose {{w|Adaptations of A Christmas Carol|adaptations}} have become popular Christmas traditions.<br />
* '''Day 6:''' ''{{w|The Far Side}}'' is a single-panel comic that features absurdist humor and is notable for its depiction of anthropomorphic amoebas and cows, cavemen, and science. For many years, creator Gary Larson produced a yearly tear-off calendar that contained a ''Far Side'' cartoon for each day of the year. Homestar Runner mentions a ''Far Side'' daily calendar on the cover page, and the artwork changes on the sheet music to a ''Far Side'' style after the song finishes playing.<br />
* '''Day 12:''' Blue Laser Commander talks and acts like the [[Hanna-Barbera]] character {{w|Snagglepuss}}, while Reynold similarly acts like {{w|Boo-Boo Bear}}.<br />
* '''Day 16:''' The Frog sticker references ''{{w|Happy Together (song)|So Happy Together}}'' by {{w|The Turtles}}.<br />

{{about|board game}} {{for-nothe|other uses|Trogdor (disambiguation)}}<br />
'''[[Trogdor]]!! The Board Game''' (shortened to '''Trogdor!!''') is a [[board game]] adaptation of [[TROGDOR!]], made by [[The Brothers Chaps]] ([[Boardelectrix]]) and [[wikipedia:James Ernest|James Ernest]]. The box art, game tiles, character cards, and item cards are drawn by Chris Schweizer. The rulebook was written with [http://lonesharkgames.com Loneshark Games]. The plastic miniatures were sculpted by Rick Van Velsor, the person who sculpted the [[Store#figurines set one|collectible figurines]].<br />
<br />
Trogdor!! is a cooperative puzzle area control game in which the players work together to burninate all of the game tiles, [[thatched-roof cottages]], and [[peasants]]. Every player controls Trogdor, assuming the role of one of the nine (twelve, counting Strong Bad's) [[The Three Keepers of Trogdor|Keepers of Trogdor]]. Each Keeper has unique powers and items, both decided by cards. The game is for one to six players, and play time is 30 minutes with variable levels of difficulty the players can set.

The [[kickstarter:projects/1999933720/trogdor-the-board-game|campaign]] was put on [[wikipedia:Kickstarter|Kickstarter]] on Tuesday, July 17, 2018 with a goal of $75,000, which was surpassed in the first few hours. The campaign ended on Wednesday, August 15, 2018, with a total of $1,421,903 (nearly 20 times the goal) and 23,338 backers. Preorders were available on [https://trogdor.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders Backerkit] from September 17 to [[Halloween|October 31]] (originally October 15). Extra items, such as [[character]] [[Meeple Character Variations|meeples]], enamel pins, and shirts, were also available with preorders. Shipping to backers began in early July 2019.<br />
<br />
A "Retail Edition" of the game was released in Fall 2020, after the Kickstarter concluded. This version does not include the wooden meeples or "Stack 'Em To The Heavens!" minigame, but is otherwise identical, and is sold in the [[myshopify:products/coming-in-fall-2020-trogdor-the-board-game-retail-version|Shopify]] and {{p|l=https://www.strongbadsspecialtyshoppe.com/listing/trogdor-the-board-game?product=2050 Teespring}} [[Store]]s. A print-and-play version can be made [[oldhr:printandplay|here]].<br />
<br />
The game was available on Kickstarter in two main levels: Wingaling Level ($40) with wooden meeples, and Burninator Level ($60) with plastic miniatures. Through a partnership with [https://wyrmwoodgaming.com/ Wyrmwood Gaming], there were also Wyrmwood Beefy, Majesty, and Consummate Levels ($200, $500, and $1800, respectively), featuring high-quality handcrafted boards with extra features and accessories. Due to all six Kickstarter stretch goals having been met, the game includes a "[[Malloween Commercial|Stack 'Em To The Heavens]]" mini-game featuring the meeples, a [[trogdorboardgame:soundboard|soundboard website]], and alternate Trogdor meeples of [[The S is for Sucks Dragon]], [[Strong Bad]]'s original Trogdor drawing, [[Strong Mad]]'s [[Dragons#Strong Mad's Attempt|"DAGRON" attempt]], [[Wormdingler]], and [[Strong Sad]]'s [[Dragons#Strong Sad's Dragon|chiaroscuro dragon]]. A "backer burnination Bingo" was also completed, in which people could submit their Trogdor fanstuff to complete a Bingo board and unlock a [[SBCG4AP Playthrough|live stream]] of [[Matt Chapman]] playing and voicing [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]] episode [[Homestar Ruiner]].<br />
<br />
In Spring 2022, the Magicks and 'Mergencies Expando Deck was released which adds new gameplay elements to the board game.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
[[File:Instagram3DCottage.png|thumb|The first hint at the board game]]<br />
The idea first came up after [[The Brothers Chaps]] started playing more board games with their kids and friends. They made a prototype with 3D-printed and painted pieces, and contacted [[wikipedia:Patrick Rothfuss|Patrick Rothfuss]], who introduced them to [[wikipedia:James Ernest|James Ernest]] of [https://cheapass.com/ Cheapass Games]. James helped make and playtest the game.<br />
<br />
On September 29, 2017, a [[@strongbadactual (Instagram)#BZo5JCJh4ij|video]] of a cottage being 3D-printed was posted on Strong Bad's [[@strongbadactual (Instagram)|Instagram]] account, the first indication of the board game. He later [[@strongbadactual (Instagram)#BaSiQY4B2I1|posted]] a [[3D Character Variations|CG model]] of Trogdor being rendered. After that, he posted pictures of the prototype game board, but none of them were clear enough to see well. A "Slantwise" card was revealed on January 24, 2018, in [[The Deleteheads Download]] Vol. 1.<br />
<br />
The game was confirmed on March 19, 2018, by both the [[Index Page]] and the [[@StrongBadActual]] Twitter account, with a [[@StrongBadActual Tweets 2018#975808792146391046|photo of the board]]. More cards were revealed on @StrongBadActual the same day in a reply. It was playable every day from 12 PM to 2 PM in Kickstarter Couchland (room 103) of [[PAX East - 8 Apr 2018|PAX East]]. During The Brothers Chaps' panel at PAX East, they revealed much more information about it. An [[@StrongBadActual Tweets 2018#1006762877397667841|advertisement video]] was posted on @StrongBadActual on June 12, 2018, announcing the release date of July. A dedicated [[Trogdor!! The Board Game Website|webpage]] was made for it on June 29, 2018, with a Twitter account (@trogdorgame) and a Facebook account ([https://www.facebook.com/trogdortheboardgame/ trogdortheboardgame]) created the same day. The @trogdorgame Twitter account is now deleted for unknown reasons. The Kickstarter campaign was live from July 17 to August 15, 2018. There was a playtest at [[wikipedia:Gen Con|Gen Con]] on August 2 and 3, 2018, another at PAX East at Uncle's Games in room 214 on April 5 to 8, 2018, and lastly JoCo Cruise in March 2019. Later, a [[Trogdor!! The Board Game Rulebook EP|rulebook EP]] was released.<br />

<br />
==Instructions==<br />
:''For complete instructions, see the [[trogdorboardgame:Trogdor_Rulebook.pdf|official rulebook]].''<br />
<br />
===General===<br />
The objective of the game, as outlined in [[Trogdor (song)|Trogdor's song]], is to:<br />
*'''Burninate the countryside:''' flip all twenty-five tiles to the burninated side.<br />
*'''Burninate the peasants:''' remove all peasants from the board, whether by chomping or burninating them.<br />
*'''Burninate the thatched-roof cottages:''' set all three cottages aflame.<br />
Once all three conditions have been met, the game ends in victory.<br />
<br />
===Setup===<br />
:''See [[Trogdor!! The Board Game Items]] for complete descriptions of game components.''<br />
[[File:gameGallery16.jpg|thumb|The map, cards, pieces, and Trog-Meter]]<br />
<br />
====Game Board====<br />
Place the twenty-five countryside tiles, unburninated side up, in a five-by-five grid. Players may use the board presets listed in the instruction booklet or come up with their own configurations. For easier play, place cottage and lake tiles on edges, and place the two tunnels far from each other. Once the board has been arranged, place one cottage and one peasant on each cottage tile. Place Trogdor on the center tile, and place the two knights and the archer on different tiles.<br />
<br />
Place the Trog-Meter, action deck, movement deck, and Void card next to the board, with space for two discard piles. Place the Troghammer and the flame helmet in their spaces on the Trog-Meter. Fill the Trog-Meter with the remaining four peasants.<br />
<br />
====Keepers of Trogdor====<br />
Each player will assume the role of one of the Keepers of Trogdor, granting them special abilities as described on the card. These abilities do not need to be recharged, and may be used only on the player's turn unless specified otherwise. Deal each player a Keeper card, either chosen or at random.<br />
<br />
====Items of Trogdor====<br />
Each player will have an item that may be used to perform a special action as described on the card. These actions may be used only on the player's turn, and must be recharged by satisfying the condition on the card before they can be used again. A player's item may only be recharged on their turn, and may not be used more than once per turn, regardless of recharge (though it may be used and recharged, or recharged and used, in the same turn). The Disk of Healing does not recharge and may only be used once per game. Deal each player an item card, either chosen or at random.<br />
<br />
====Action and Movement Deck====<br />
Players will draw from the action deck on their turn to determine the actions they can take. Seven of the action cards are Troghammer cards. Remove these from the action deck and set them aside; they will be shuffled in the first time Trogdor takes damage. Shuffle the action deck and deal one action card to each player.<br />
<br />
Movement cards will be used to specify the movements of peasants, knights, and the archer during the countryside phase. Shuffle the movement deck and place it where players can reach.<br />
<br />
Any method may be used to determine who takes the first turn.<br />
<br />
===Turns===<br />
[[File:gameGallery12new.jpg|thumb|A turn being played with meeples]]<br />
Each turn consists of two phases: one where the player controls Trogdor, and one where the countryside takes actions. Note that the countryside phase is still considered part of the turn of the player who just moved Trogdor.<br />
<br />
====Phase 1: Trogdor's Actions====<br />
Draw an action card. The player should now have two action cards in hand, and must choose one to play and one to "bank" for a future turn. Each action card should specify a number of action points (AP) and a special action or ability that Trogdor is allowed for that turn. Note that these abilities are optional and do not need to be used. If the player doesn't like either of their action cards, they may discard one to gain 5 AP with no special ability. Once an action card is chosen, it may be discarded.<br />
<br />
If a Troghammer card is drawn:<br />
*If the Troghammer is not yet in play, place it on the center tile.<br />
*If the Troghammer is in play, draw a movement card, and, ignoring all other information on the card, move the Troghammer along the movement path (damaging Trogdor and repairing cottages as in a normal knight movement).<br />
If at any time the Troghammer lands on a tile occupied by a knight or archer, draw another movement card and move it again. After a Troghammer card has been drawn, discard it and draw a new action card. Note that the Troghammer is a knight, and if he is in play, all rules applying to knights apply to him as well.<br />
<br />
[[File:gameGallery11new.jpg|thumb|Trogdor burninating a cottage]]<br />
Once an action card has been chosen for play, Trogdor may take actions{{--}}up to the number of action points specified on that card. These are the actions that players can do:<br />
*'''Move''' Trogdor one tile to the north, south, east or west. Trogdor does not have diagonal movement or wraparound movement unless granted by a Keeper or an action card.<br />
**Trogdor takes damage if he moves onto a knight's tile.<br />
*'''Chomp''' a peasant on the tile Trogdor occupies. Remove the peasant from the board and add it to the Trog-Meter (Trogdor's health).<br />
*'''Hide''' on a mountain tile, rendering Trogdor invulnerable to the knights and archer during the next phase. Set Trogdor on his side to represent his hidden status. This action will end the turn.<br />
*'''Burrow''' from one tunnel tile to the other.<br />
*'''Burninate''' a tile, a peasant, or an eligible cottage.<br />
**'''Burninate a tile:''' Flip the tile Trogdor occupies to the burninated side. This does not affect any other pieces occupying the tile. Note that burninated tiles retain any special function they had previously.<br />
***The lake tile must be surrounded by burninated tiles on all four sides before it may be burninated. (This condition does not wrap around if the lake is on the edge of the board.)<br />
***Cards that let players burninate a tile other than the one where Trogdor is standing ignore the usual burninating restrictions; for example, the lake tile can be burninated regardless of the condition of its neighbors.<br />
**'''Burninate a peasant''' on the tile Trogdor occupies: Crown the peasant with the flame helmet. Then draw a movement card, and, ignoring all other information on the card, move the peasant along the movement path, burninating each tile the peasant visits (including its starting tile). If the peasant reaches the end of its path without being saved by the lake (see below), it is removed from the board and placed in the Void, not on the Trog-Meter.<br />
***If the peasant visits an eligible cottage, the cottage is ignited. If the peasant's path ends on a burninated cottage, the peasant is re-ignited with a fresh movement card.<br />
***If the peasant visits another peasant, the other peasant is ignited{{--}}complete the current peasant's movement and then draw a fresh movement card for the other one.<br />
***If the peasant visits the lake, the peasant is extinguished and the lake is left unharmed, regardless of its burnination status. (There is, therefore, no point in burninating a peasant who is already at the lake, as it will be extinguished instantly.)<br />
**'''Burninate a cottage''' on the tile Trogdor occupies: In order to be ''eligible'', a cottage's tile must be burninated, as well as the eight tiles surrounding it. As with the lake, this condition does not wrap around. If the cottage is eligible, it may be burninated by flipping the piece to its burninated side.<br />
***Note: cottages may be repaired by knights. If the tiles around a burninated cottage are repaired by peasants, the cottage is not automatically repaired, but it will make it more difficult to re-burninate if it does get repaired.<br />
*'''Pass''' and forfeit any remaining action points.<br />
<br />
====Phase 2: The Countryside's Movements====<br />
It's time for the countryside to fight back. Draw a movement card. All peasants, knights, and the archer have ''wraparound movement'': if they move off the edge of the board on one side, they reappear on the opposite side.<br />
*Observe the number of peasants (zero to four) in the top left of the card. Spawn peasants from the Trog-Meter until the number of peasants on the board is greater than or equal to the number of peasants on the card. Note that health lost due to peasant spawning is not considered damage, and thus Trogdor cannot be killed by peasant spawning. Peasants may be placed on any cottage tile, given the following rules:<br />
**A cottage that is already occupied by a peasant cannot spawn peasants.<br />
**A burninated cottage cannot spawn peasants.<br />
**If there is no cottage that can spawn a peasant, or if the Trog-Meter is empty, no more peasants can be spawned. Peasants never spawn from the Void.<br />
*Move all peasants on the board one tile in the direction specified on the arrow. If the arrow is green, peasants repair the tiles they step onto. Peasants do not repair cottages{{--}}if a peasant steps onto the tile of a burninated cottage, the peasant is burninated.<br />
*Move the knights (including the Troghammer if he is in play) and the archer along the movement path.<br />
**If a knight visits Trogdor's tile, Trogdor takes damage; move one peasant from the Trog-Meter to the Void. If a knight visits a burninated cottage, that cottage is repaired. <br />
**At the end of the archer's movement, it fires arrows along its row (if it last moved horizontally) or column (if it last moved vertically). If Trogdor is in this row or column, he takes damage. Note that arrows do not touch the archer's tile; if the archer is on Trogdor's tile when he shoots, Trogdor is not harmed.<br />
*Remember to shuffle the Troghammer cards into the action deck the first time Trogdor takes damage.<br />
<br />
It is now the next player's turn. Turns move clockwise.<br />
<br />
===Trogdor's Fiery Rage===<br />
If Trogdor takes damage while the Trog-Meter is at zero, he dies{{--}}or rather, he "rage-quits". Trogdor's Fiery Rage is a special endgame phase in which Trogdor has one last chance to beat the game in a blaze of glory.<br />
<br />
Draw five movement cards, and, ignoring all other information on the card, move Trogdor along each movement path sequentially. Trogdor gains wraparound movement for this phase. Including his starting tile, Trogdor lays waste to everything he touches: tiles and cottages are burninated regardless of eligibility, peasants are removed (without triggering peasant burnination), and knights are killed (although the archer lives). If, by the end of the five movements, the win conditions have been met, Trogdor has achieved a "[[total]] table-flip victory". If not, "Trogdor [retires] in defeat, to burninate another day."<br />
<br />
Strong Bad encourages players to end each game, regardless of the outcome, with a rousing "[[Teen Girl Squad|IT'S OVER!]]"<br />
<br />
===Book of Haldo===<br />
:''For complete instructions, see the [[trogdorboardgame:BookofHaldo_Rulebook.pdf|Book of Haldo Rulebook]].''<br />
In a Tweet from {{prs|1249795875486007296|13|Apr|2020|alt=April 13, 2020}}, Strong Bad introduced a new set of rules for Trogdor!! The Board Game that affects how arrows shot by the archers affect other game pieces.<br />
<br />
If playing with Book of Haldo rules, the game board must be set up so two cottages are placed on any of the eight tiles surrounding the center.<br />
<br />
The archers now shoot arrows in all four cardinal directions (north, south, east and west) from wherever the archers land at the end of their movement path. Be sure to track the path of each arrow, as it will impact tiles and game pieces in new and chaotic ways. If more than one element occupies a tile touched by an arrow, resolve in the order listed below.<br />
#'''Flaming cottage:''' The arrow flies through the cottage and catches fire, making it a flaming arrow. Flaming arrows burninate every tile they pass through (including the lake), in addition to the effects described below.<br />
#'''Peasant:''' The peasant is shot and rendered "immobilized". Arrowed peasants do not move and do not count in the peasant spawning tally. However, Trogdor can{{--}}and must in order to win{{--}}still eat these peasants. Arrow path ends.<br />
##If the arrow is flaming, the peasant is burninated instead.<br />
#'''Tunnel:''' The arrow flies into the tunnel and out the other end, continuing in its original direction. Trogdor is hit by the arrow if he is standing on the "out" tunnel, but not if he is standing on the "in" tunnel.<br />
#'''Knight:''' The shot is deflected in the direction of the peasant movement on the movement card. The arrow continues flying until it hits something or reaches the edge of the board. If the arrow hits a second knight, the arrow is deflected again in the original direction that the archers shot it.<br />
#'''Unburninated cottage:''' The cottage blocks the shot. If Trogdor is on the same tile as the cottage, he hides behind the cottage and does not take any damage. Arrow path ends.<br />
##If the arrow is flaming and the cottage is eligible, the cottage is burninated.<br />
#'''Troghammer:''' He protects himself by performing a spin attack, damaging Trogdor if he is on any of the eight adjacent tiles (but not the tile on which the Troghammer stands). The spin attack does not affect peasants, knights, or archers, and does not wrap around. Arrow path ends.<br />
#'''Trogdor:''' Trogdor is arrowed as normal.<br />
<br />
If the archers end their movement path on the same tile that Trogdor occupies, Trogdor sets all four arrows on fire before they are shot.<br />
<br />

==Stack 'Em to the Heavens==<br />
[[File:StackEmToTheHeavens.png|thumb|"Now you can play a game called Stack 'Em to the Heavens!"]]<br />
'''Stack 'Em to the [[Heaven]]s''' is a competitive meeple-stacking minigame. A small white drawstring canvas bag comes free inside every board game box. The bag has an image of Marshie on fire, with the text "STACK EM TO THE HEAVENS!" and the rules on it. According to the Kickstarter page, the bag is intended to be used for keeping meeples in, so the game can be played anywhere. The title (and Marshie's presence on the bag and in the commercial) is a reference to Marshie's song in [[Malloween Commercial]], when advertising that [[Fluffy Puff Marshmallows|Fluffy Puff Malloweens]] fit on top of each other.<br />
<br />
Start by putting the peasant, knight, and Troghammer meeples in a bag, shake the bag, and roll the meeples onto a surface. The two players take turns stacking meeples on top of each other. Meeples that land face-up or on their edge are stacked upright and can be rotated however the player chooses, and face-down meeples are stacked flat. The objective is to make the tower as precarious as possible, making the other player topple the stack down, or to force the other player into placing a third consecutive peasant. If all the meeples are successfully stacked, the game ends in a draw.<br />
<br />
Originally, there was an animated GIF on the board game's Kickstarter page, depicting meeples being stacked. The GIF's caption jokingly mentioned that the reader could make up a minigame called "Stack Em To The Heavens". On July 17th, the day the Kickstarter campaign began, the second stretch goal was announced. It was stated that upon reaching $250,000, that joke would be turned into a real game, and a companion soundboard website would be created for the board game. The goal was achieved the next day. On August 15, 2018, [[Puppet Character Variations#Puppet Strong Bad|Puppet Strong Bad]], [[Mike Chapman]], and [[Lucky Yates]] played the game live during the [[Final Hours Playthrough]]. According to Strong Bad, the rules were made up the day before in five minutes. At this point, the archer was also included. On October 25, 2018, a [[Stack 'Em to the Heavens!|commercial]] was released on [[YouTube]].<br />
<br />
==Fun Facts==<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*There have been some changes throughout the making of the game.<br />
**The "That Dog Tennis Ball Thing, 'cept with Fireballs" item was originally called "Ball of Fire".<br />
**There was originally an item called "Pauldrons of [[Greg]]", with the ability to prevent Trogdor from taking one damage, recharging when Trogdor devours a peasant.<br />
**There was originally an item called "Bones of Luckman" that gave the player an extra Action point. This was replaced with Two Gross Beans, which gives the player +2 AP instead.<br />
**The "High Energy" card was originally called "Trog-Burst", and before that, "Extra Actions".<br />
**The "Jhonka Help" card originally provided 6 action points, and one of those could be used to eat a peasant on any tile on Trogdor's turn.<br />
**Peasants could originally only be eaten on burninated tiles.<br />
**The circumstances for summoning the Troghammer were different. The Troghammer was originally summoned to the board after three Troghammer cards were drawn rather than one, but the Troghammer cards started in the deck.<br />
*[[Naked Ned]] is visible on one of the forest tiles, seen [[twitter:StrongBadActual/status/1248449601365041152|here]].<br />

</blockquote><br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*In the toon the expansion deck is spelled "Majicks", while on the [[store]] it is spelled "Magicks".<br />
*This toon is animated in a noticeably [[Higher Frames Per Second|higher frame rate]] at certain points. Some examples include Homestar shaking his Stray Action Point card, the "Expando Deck" splash screen appearing, and the "appear" effect of the cards showing up on the live action wooden table.<br />
*When the cards on the wooden table appear, the lighting becomes a bit darker.<br />
*The new cards that are seen and readable in the toon are as follows:<br />
** '''Action Cards'''<br />
*** ''The Trogorb'' - 4 AP - Before Trogdor's actions, flip over the top movement card to forsee the Peasant and Knight movements.<br />
*** ''Wraparound Burnination'' - 5 AP - Once during Trogdor's actions, if he is on an edge tile, he may burninate one corresponding wraparound tile for free.<br />
*** ''Flaming Haldo'' - 4 AP - If Trogdor ends his turn on the Archer, a flaming arrow is shot in the direction Trogdor last moved, burninating all countryside tiles from the Archer to the edge of the board.<br />
*** ''Sneak 'Em Up Stan'' - 4 AP - Before Trogdor's actions, he may teleport to any tile occupied by a Knight without taking damage.<br />
*** ''Peasant Intern'' - 5 AP - For this turn only, every Peasant Trogdor visits becomes a Junior Burninator. When Junior Burninators move, they burninate the tile they start on and the tile they move onto, even if they're supposed to Repair. Peasants stay on the board.<br />
** '''Emergency Cards'''<br />
*** ''Stray Action Point'' - Add 1 AP to Trogdor's actions.<br />
*** ''Troghammer Rejection'' - Ignore a Troghammer card. Discard it and keep playing.<br />
*** ''Instant Recharge'' - Recharge any one Item of Trogdor... expect for Disk of Healing. Sorry.<br />
*** ''Movement Card Snob'' - If you don't like the movement card that was JUST drawn, discard it and draw the next one instead. You gotta stick with that one though!<br />
*** ''Third String Keeper'' - Choose any one Keeper NOT currently in the game (like, still in the box). For this turn, use both their power and the current player's power.<br />
*** ''Tile Swappins'' - Swap any 2 empty map tiles.<br />
*** ''Singular Consummate V'' - Move Trogdor one tile diagonally now.<br />
** '''Spell of Un-Voidening'''<br />
*** Perform these tasks (in any order) on a single turn to move one Peasant from the Void to the Trog-Meter.<br />
*** Card 1:<br />
****Burninate a tile Trogdor is not on<br />
****Visit a tile directly south of any Knight<br />
****End your turn on a burninated forest tile<br />
*** Card 2:<br />
****Move 3 tiles consecutively in the same direction<br />
****Visit the Archer<br />
****Hide in the Mountain<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
* In both the beginning scene with Strong Bad and the part where Strong Sad shows up to cast the "Spell of Un-Voidening", a peasant can be seen on the same tile as Trogdor. In the scene where the Emergency Card is demonstrated as the Knight advances towards Trogdor, the peasant on the aforementioned tile is not present.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*Like with the [[Trogdor!! The Board Game (video)|Kickstarter trailer for the board game]] and [[Stack 'Em to the Heavens!]], Homestar and Strong Bad are once again speaking in [[Poor Acting|monotone voices]].<br />
*Homestar previously made spoken siren noises in [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]].<br />
*One of the cards is Flaming [[Unusual Greetings#Haldo|Haldo]].<br />
*Another card is titled "[[X 'Em Up|Sneak 'Em Up Stan]]".<br />
*The grim reaper cloak that Strong Sad is wearing is first seen in [[trading cards]], where it was depicted on the "Deathly Pallor Lonely Lurker Attack" card.<br />
*The face on the onion powder bottle is that of [[Onion Bubs]].<br />
<br />
===Real World References===<br />
*The name "Magick's and Mergencies" is a parody of [[Wikipedia: Dungeons and Dragons|Dungeons and Dragons]].<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Image:JustOnionBubs.png|thumb|ONION BUUUUUUUBS!!]]<br />
<br />
'''Onion Bubs''' is an onion version of [[Bubs]] that, according to [[Strong Bad]], was one of the many temporary replacements for [[Original Bubs]]. Since Strong Bad apparently [[History according to Strong Bad#original|made up Original Bubs]], it initially seemed as though the same was also true of Onion Bubs, but it has since [[Made-Up Real Things|made other appearances]].<br />
<br />
In terms of appearance, Onion Bubs is nothing more than an onion with Bubs's face drawn on it. Curiously, despite allegedly replacing Original Bubs, his eyes and mouth are shaped more like those found on regular [[Bubs]]. Onion Bubs' design is similar to the "evil onions" in [[Let us give TANKS!]].<br />
<br />
Strong Bad describes him as a "fan favorite", and, indeed, his appearance was met, along with subsequent appearances, with great cheering and a single overenthusiastic voice shouting his name over and over again. This has since become a [[running gag]], and the voice occasionally shouts his name even when there is no mention of Onion Bubs.<br />
<br />
Onion Bubs speaks for the first time in [[Doomy Tales of the Macabre]], when Bubs's head flies off after being chomped off by his monster-transformed [[Bubs' Concession Stand|concession stand]]. As the head lands, Onion Bubs says "Welcome to ''my'' world!" and laughs evilly. [[Strong Sad]] was just making this up, so it's possible that Onion Bubs is not actually able to talk.<br />
<br />
In addition, an Easter egg in [[original]] indicates that there was once an "Onion [[King of Town (title)|King of Town]]". A bottle of onion powder with the same face gets the same cheering reception in [[Expando Deck Promo]].<br />
<br />
Onion Bubs received his own sticker pack in the form of the [[Onion Bubs iMessage Stickers]].<br />
<br />
==Appearances==<br />
[[File:3d onion.png|thumb|ONION THREEDEEEEE!!]]<br />
*'''Debut:''' Email [[original]] &mdash; Onion Bubs is mentioned as a fan favorite among the replacements for Original Bubs.<br />
*[[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]] &mdash; Onion Bubs is hiding among the onions in [[Marzipan]]'s enhanced garden as a prank for the cast.<br />
*[[Kick-A-Ball]] &mdash; With everyone playing kickball, [[The Announcer]] realizes that he has no idea who he's broadcasting to, and Onion Bubs is seen beside a radio that is playing his broadcast.<br />
*[[Doomy Tales of the Macabre]] &mdash; The front of Bubs' Concession Stand turns into Bubs's head. Bubs laments this before his own head is bitten off by the Concession Stand face. His head goes flying and lands next to Onion Bubs, who says, "Welcome to ''my'' world! Ehh-heheheheheh!"<br />
*[[@StrongBadActual]] &mdash;<br />
**July 18, 2017 &mdash; The Int-Ball, a Japanese camera drone aboard the International Space Station which vaguely resembles Bubs's head, is bumped out of position by Onion Bubs.<br />
**August 5, 2019 &mdash; Strong Bad suggests that a can of "Little Bubs" ale should have the name tweaked to "Onion Bubs" ale.<br />
*[[Fan 'Stumes 2019]] &mdash; Strong Bad describes a costume as an "Onion Bubs-headed Bubs costume" and suggests that it won't get the same enthusiastic reception as Onion Bubs.<br />
<br />
===Mentions===<br />
*[[A Death-Defying Decemberween]] &mdash; When Bubs opens the door during Homestar's stage scene, one person yells, "Onion Bubs!"<br />
*Email [[dictionary]] &mdash; A [[Wikipedia:Family Feud|Family Feud]]-style screen shows up, and in an Easter egg, the answer of "Onion Bubs" is revealed, worth 51 points, and the cheering and yelling of "Onion Bubs!" commence.<br />
*[[April Fool 2014]] &mdash; When [[Homestar Runner]] [[Fourth Wall Breaks|asks the audience]] if they want to hear him and Strong Bad perform the [[Homestar Runner Desktop Theme|Windows 98 shutdown song]], the "Onion Bubs!" voice can faintly be heard among the cheering.<br />
*[[Trogdor!! The Board Game]] Soundboard &mdash; Once again, the "Onion Bubs!" voice can be heard among the screaming [[peasants]] in the "Peasant Yell" sound.<br />
*[[Expando Deck Promo|Trogdor!! The Board Game: Expando Deck Promo]] &mdash; A bottle of onion powder with Bubs' face drawn on it appears at the end of the toon, accompanied with similar cheering and screaming.<br />

''{The next image shows a guy in a The Cheat hoodie kneeling down. A glow stick appears and spins in front of him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{resumes singing and mimics a techno beat mimics.}'' Doom doom doom doom. The system is bald! ''{The picture of the guy in the Strong Bad makeup appears again. The image then spins around.}'' Dah dah doh-la dah dah!<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows up with the same man as before, holding a glass next to a man dressed as Ned Flanders. A little piano ditty plays.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing to a different tune.}'' Now go have a Cold One with Ned Flanders!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a giant Homestar costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Impressive Homestar costume! I see you made him with his rectangle mouth, which I like to call 'Cartridge Mouth Homestar'! I'm always just tempted to shove a VHS tape ''{as Strong Bad lists the examples, the item gets inserted and pressed down into Homestar's mouth}'' or a dusty old musty Game Pak right in there!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I found that SHMUPs taste best! You know, like Xeliogravius... IV? ''{the box for Videlectrix game Xeliogravius IV drops down, showing a spaceship fighting a green alien inside a large mouth. On it is a caption that says "Not a total rip-off!"}'' That's a good game.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a man dressed up as Coach Z.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, there's actually some pretty good ''{the next slide shows another person dressed as the aforementioned character}'' looking Coach Z costumes this year! You guys have really&mdash; ''{the next slide appears, featuring a Coach Z costume with a skin-tight suit}'' Oh, the pain! ''{the next slide appears, with another Coach Z costume, this time a full-body suit}'' Oh, the mercy! All right, you guys! I'm calling it! I don't want to see anybody wearing these skin tight green jobs next year!<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Okay, you asked for it! ''{Coach Z hums to himself as some rustling and squishing noises are heard.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah! I was talking about the fans! And what did I tell you about humming those saucy "getting undressed" songs?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' INA-PRO-PRO! ''{The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the screen, accompanied with a buzzer noise.}''<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows a man dressed up as Senor Cardgage holding a bag. The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the image again.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh my dear yes! ''{The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp fades away.}'' Gonna have to get analogous on this one.<br />
<br />
''{An analysis sheet is pulled up. The top is written "ANALOGY WORKSHEET - Unit 1 - Cardgage" with the bottom written "this guy: cardgage:: cardgage: strong bad". A sketch of the person wearing the costume appears.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' This guy's costume is to ''{a sketch of Senor Cardgage appears}'' Cardgage, as Cardgage ''{the aforementioned sketch appears, but mirrored}'' is to ''{a sketch of Strong Bad appears}'' Strong Bad. ''{The sheet moves out of view.}'' He's like a Cardgage among Cardgages. He's like Cardgage squared! Aww, and look! ''{zooms in on the bag of a take out bag of Chick-fil-A lying on the ground. Strong Bad then imitates Cardgage.}'' Somebody finally took him to Chick-fil-A.<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows a guy dressed as D n'D Greg and a woman dressed as What's Her Face.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, that's a dead-on D n'D Greg and What's Her Face, and your wall even dressed up as D n'D Greg's front hallway!<br />
<br />
''{Speech bubbles for D n'D Greg and What's Her Face appear}''<br />
<br />
'''D N'D GREG:''' The KROKUS banner on my front porch drew her near... and this Slayer poster in my hallway won her heart.<br />
<br />
'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Uhh... I like pavement.<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows another giant Homestar costume standing in front of a closed door.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' B-WHOA-HO-HO! If I came out the bathroom and saw that thing standing in the hallway, I'd call in the SWAT flamethrower strike team. ''{Mimics a caller}'' Uh, yes, officer, there's a seven-foot-tall Homestar Runner with saggy ankles standing in my s-st-stounch! ''{laughs over his next few lines}'' That's what we call the area between the bathroom and the laundry room. The stounch. Come and get him. In my stounch.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide scrolls down with "Pree-ow" playing. A guy has The Paper taped on his face and is standing behind a computer monitor with a Tandy 400 background reading "a> Pretend this computer is 30 years old."}''<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a guy dressed as David Byrne and a woman dressed as The Log Lady. They are sitting on a table with candles and a picture of a plant on it, while the guy holds his hands up with his eyes closed.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' So wait, you didn't actually dress up as Strong Sad or Marzipan, you dressed up as the ''{a still showing Strong Sad and Marzipan appear on the bottom right}'' people they dressed up as one time, and then painstakingly ''{the images move up to the slide, scales to match the propositions and becomes translucent}'' recreated the scene in which they appeared. Well, that sounds exactly like the kinda nerdy thing those two losers would be into anyways. ''{The comparison fades away.}'' So good job.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a person dressed up as motion-capture Strong Bad.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Nothing like dressing up as an obscure Internet cartoon's even more obscure DVD bonus feature. ''{An image of motion-capture Strong Bad appears on the left side.}'' Mo-Cap Strong Bad, more like "Mowed-Down Strong Bad"! ''{Bubs's baloney truck runs into the picture of Mo-Cap Strong Bad and knocks it out of view.}'' 'Cause it's a very&mdash; there's a lot of black in the costume. Might be hard to see.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a guy wearing a giant light brown pillow over his head, making it resemble a bean. He's sitting on a chair with a travel case next to him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Finally, Large Bean's getting the respect he deserves!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows the same character with a cardboard bean on the person's face. The background is dark and blurred.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey! No fair blurring out the rest of your living room! How am I supposed to make fun of your family's terrible taste in decor?<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a boy in a Homsar costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' AaAaAaAaA! I'm a tall kitty in a pumpkin bag! ''{zooms in the kitty dressed decor in the background.}'' Or, ''{zooms back out}'' don't froth up, ''{zooms in on the unplugged appliance in the background}'' I unplugged the papasan! Man! Middle America's houses ''{zooms back out}'' are rife with Homsar quotes!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a guy dressed as Old-Timey Strong Bad sitting on the steps next to a sign. The image is in a sepia tone.}''<br />
<br />
'''OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD:''' Yes, feast your depression-era eyes on Strong Bad's Flavor Taste ''{zooms in on the sign}'' Tricks and Treats! ''{A logo of a spoon holding a white powder slide in from the top right}'' A spoonful of bakinged soda one could mistake for sugar and some molasses ''{a bottle of molasses slides in the bottom left with a dead goat on it. On it has the words "premulum" on it}'' bequeathed to me by a goat, upon its untimely demise! ''{zooms back out}'' Strong Bad is your number one candym'n!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows someone wearing a Coach Z costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys.<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows someone wearing a Senor Cardgage costume with some animals strapped on his knees, with a similar background and image quality.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows both images, with Senor Cardgage on the left and Coach Z on the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys!! These are good costumes. These are ''great'' costumes! But why, in the year of our King of Town 2017, when everyone has a 12-jillion gregapixel camera in their pocket, ''{close-up of the Senor Cardgage costume's mask}'' do you send me pictures that look like they were taken on your... ''{a pink flip-phone with "Sweet Digits" written on it slides to the center of the screen}'' grandma's candy flip-phone that you don't have the heart to tell her ''{the phone opens, revealing a cartoony winking face on the screen, and a hole filled with colored balls below the buttons, with some spilling out of the phone.}'' it's not a real phone?! ''{grandma voice}'' But I had ''such'' good conversations with Little Protelzo! ''{normal voice}'' That's her&mdash; that's her grandson. Little Protelzo.<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows one person dressed as il Cartographer, with a flag and map to the restroom, and a person dressed as Gardenboy beside him, with a rake and watering can, and a Kick The Cheat toy designed to look like Mr. Cheatayama, all against a wall with some sheets taped to it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, this costume thing is not a contest. But you guys... win the costume contest! ''{an instrumental version of the il Cartographer theme plays as an image of il Cartographer, Gardenboy, and Mr. Cheatayama in the wrestling ring appears in the corner, with the character in the same positions as the costumes. As Strong Bad points out various things, it cuts close to them.}'' It's all here! Il Cartographer's floppy hat! And flag! And maps to the restroom! The insidious Mr. Cheatayama with his trademark whisk! ''{Cut to the entire picture; the image in the corner disappears}'' And you even took the picture in front of a depressing basement wall with some sheets taped to it! That was an actual venue we used to wrestle in! ''{the music stops}'' That's where il Cartographer finally won... ''{A wrestling belt, with a gold waffle design in the middle, zooms in from the center of the screen. There is a carton, melting butter, and a muffin on the waffle design, with the words "Continental Breakfast Champion" written at the top and bottom. The AWMPSCE logo is on both of the sides. The music continues.}'' the Continental Breakfast title belt!<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''LEAD SINGER:''' He won the title match!<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''LEAD SINGER:''' He took-a no crap!<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''LEAD SINGER:''' He's gonna draw another map!<br />
<br />
''{A brown map flies in from the left side of the screen to the middle. There is a compass pointing north in the bottom-left corner. There is a road that goes past Carrot and Kazoo Hill (labeled "CK Hill") and The Stick (unlabeled) to an X near Bubs' Concession Stand, with an arrow pointing to it, with red text reading "here be savings". There is a Yello Dello (labeled "yello-dello") just past the stand. In the bottom right-corner, there is a Bubs head wearing a hat.}''<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' He's the il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I claim-a this belt in the name of Bubsmfort Inn & Suites! Home of the free continental breakfast! ''{quickly, quietly}'' Located just past Carrot-Kazoo Hill, one mile south of the Yello Dello.<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' ''{a speech bubble appears from the Bubs head on the map, as Bubs reads it:}'' Make yourself Bubsmfortable!<br />

<div>Just a normal fan of H*R, that's all.<br />
<br />
I've been a fan of this Internet cartoon ever since 2009, where a friend of mine introduced me to it. The only H*R character I remember first seeing before that was Pom Pom on a really old (and horribly outdated) image hosting website called Photobucket. For whatever reason, the image of Pom Pom was just called "turtle", so I mistook the character as that since.<br />
<br />
The only merchandise I ever owned was SBCG4AP (before TellTale closed down and the game was delisted) and the Trogdor Board Game. I'm hoping to snag the Expando Deck and the Character Meeples soon!<br />

<br />
''{Fade in. The Trogdor!! The Board Game box is standing upright in front of a stone-patterened wall.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{waving his hand in the shot}'' ''{rolling his R}'' Grrreetings, Six-Sadders. Here we are at the official unboxing video of Trogdor!! The Board Game.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Sad picks up the corner of the box so that the image of Trogdor shines in the light.}''<br />
<br />
'''STORNG SAD:''' Take a look at that spot UV on the cover there. That looks real nice.<br />
<br />
''{Fade to back cover of Trogdor!! The Board Game.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{flourishing his hand}'' And here's the back. ''{indicating the label}'' "From the web". ''{indicating the picture "taped" to the right side}'' Strong Bad has drawn some additions here. ''{indicating the icons at the top}'' We've got our icons at the top. Then let's get into it.<br />
<br />
''{Fade to the Trogdor!! The Board Game box sitting on the table.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, I got Mike here to help me.<br />
<br />
''{Mike waves his hand into the shot.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Hi, Strong Sad.<br />
<br />
''{Mike reaches in to take the box in both hands. He slowly lifts the cover of the box.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' He's got nicer fingers than I do.<br />
<br />
''{As the cover of the box is lifted, an emphatic "whumpff!" sound is grunted. The rulebook is on the top. Mike takes the rulebook and holds it toward the camera.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' What do we got?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Here's the rulebook.<br />
<br />
''{Mike turns the page.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Exciting, huh? ''{continues turning pages}'' Full color.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Page count.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{turns to the back page}'' A page count, and look, on the back, there's even a little turn summary.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, so you can use this as a quick reference when you're playing.<br />
<br />
''{Mike sets the rulebook aside.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Sure.<br />
<br />
''{Mike turns the game box a quarter turn so the long side faces the camera.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, let's... delve in, shall we?<br />
<br />
''{Mike picks up a white bag with Marshie's face on it that reads "STACK 'EM TO THE HEAVENS!". The bite on Marshie's head is on fire.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' All right, let's get rid of this abomination&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{simultaneously with "abomination"}'' Creepo.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' &mdash;here.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
''{Mike pulls the strings on the bag taut.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' It's a little sack for your meeples. <br />
<br />
''{Mike sets the bag down on top of the rulebook.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' There's a little game that you can play for stacking meeples.<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes out the little bag with the wooden dragon meeples in it.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So here are the, um, alternate Trogdor wooden meeples.<br />
<br />
''{Mike sets the bag aside.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' They all play the same, so just pick your fave&mdash;<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a close-up of the table. Mike places the notebook paper Trogdor meeple on it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' &mdash;before each game. Oh, there's the notebook paper Trogdor that started it all.<br />
<br />
''{Cut. The table is cleared. Mike places the DAGRON carving meeple.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Strong Mad's, carved in a desk, DAGRON.<br />
<br />
''{Cut. The table is cleared. Mike places the Chiaroscuro Dragon meeple.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, my personal favorite, Mike. Chiaroscuro Trogdor.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' You should finish that.<br />
<br />
''{Cut. The table is cleared.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' I&mdash; I never got a chance!<br />
<br />
''{Mike places the S is for Sucks meeple.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' The S is for Sucks dragon, looking quadruply beefy.<br />
<br />
''{Cut. The table is cleared. Mike places the Wormdingler meeple. The music stops.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh. Oh no.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, let's... let's move on.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Wormdingle.<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the game box. The music continues. The meeples are stood upright on the side of the box with the other items. Mike pulls out the bag with all the other meeples and shakes it in front of the camera.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And next&mdash; what's next, Mike?<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the empty table.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The rest of the wooden meeples.<br />
<br />
''{Mike places a peasant.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The... peasant!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' What's in that tiny bag?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{placing a flame helmet on top}'' Rocks!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Ooh, there he is with his flame helmet. He's burninating!<br />
<br />
''{Mike holds a cottage meeple.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And here's a cottage.<br />
<br />
''{Mike, still holding the meeple, flips it over to display the burninated side.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Clean side on one, burninated on the other.<br />
<br />
''{Mike sets the cottage down flat. He flips it over to the burnintated side.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Flip it, flip-a-dip.<br />
<br />
''{Mike places the archers meeple.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And the archer twins.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Mendelev.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And Dongolev. Haldo!<br />
<br />
''{Mike places a knight meeple.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Here's a knight. Look at him, Mike!<br />
<br />
''{Mike picks up the knight and plays around with it.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, he can do a little dance!<br />
<br />
''{Mike spins the meeple around.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, that's a lovely little dance. And a spin move!<br />
<br />
''{Mike places the Troghammer meeple.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And the ''Troghammer''. Who's a little bit more difficult, Mike. Who's way cooler looking.<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes the meeple away.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{whispering}'' It doesn't dance!<br />
<br />
''{Mike places the classic Trogdor meeple.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And there's Trogdor. What a lovely translation to a&mdash; a little chubby meeple.<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes Trogdor away.}''<br />
<br />
''{Pan across an overhead shot of all the assembled meeples.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' There's our line-up. Your starting line-up. For your Trog-lanta Hawks.<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the game box. Mike pulls out the deck of tiles.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, let's delve into more, Mike.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Here are the, uh, twenty-five terrain tiles here.<br />
<br />
''{Mike displays a tunnel tile to the camera, green side up.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Let's delve into untold depths.<br />
<br />
''{Mike flips the tile to show the burninated side.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Burninated on one side, and beautifully illustrated by our friend Chris Schweizer on the other.<br />
<br />
''{Mike sets the deck of tiles in front of the game box in three piles in sped-up motion.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Whoa, stop that!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{quickly}'' Yeah, here I go!<br />
<br />
''{Mike starts panting as he arranges the tiles, placing a burnintated tree tile on top of the three stacks.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' You're creeping me out! I don't like it!<br />
<br />
''{Mike reaches his hand in from the right to pull out the Trog-Meter.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{laughing, nearly breaking character}'' Now you're on that side! There's the Trog-Meter.<br />
<br />
''{Mike sets the Trog-Meter down on the other side of the box.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' You use that to put your peasants on to keep track of your peasant health.<br />
<br />
''{Mike pulls out a deck of cards reading Items of Trogdor.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And now, the Items and Keepers of Trogdor.<br />
<br />
''{Mike flips the deck, showing a card with an image of The Cheat on the bottom.}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to an empty part of the table. Strong Sad plays a card featuring the Keeper Worchex on the top, and then spreads the deck across the table, with Worchex separating from Galgabulge, Hardybardy and the rest of the cards.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' I'll spread these out like a true blackjack pr&mdash;professional.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Sad continues to spread the cards so the faces are all visible, including Crangolev, Yubbitz, Cranjegg, Stonklar, Helgetha, Brovelade, Just The Cheat, and others.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, it's close enough. Pretty good. There's twelve of these. Nine with good illustrations, and three with Strong Bad illustrations.<br />
<br />
''{The table is cleared. Strong Sad plays a deck with the Ring of Voip card on the top, and spreads them out from right to left.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Same with our i-tems of Trogdor.<br />
<br />
''{The cards are spread so That Dog Tennis Ball Thing, 'cept with Fireballs and the Disk of Healing, Two Gross Beans, Distracto's Pouch, Super Trinket, Ye Flask of Dennis, Shield of Cumberdale, Baubles of Astray, Trog Floaty, Keyswordtar and Old Man Rub cards become visible.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' That's a little better.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Little better this time. More practice. Uh, so again, nine of these, three by Strong Bad, making a total of twelve.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Good math, Strong Sad. Good math.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, there they are.<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the game box. Mike places the Items and Keepers deck on top of the Trog-Meter.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I'll put them right there.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{laughing}'' Good job!<br />
<br />
''{Mike pulls out the deck with a card that shows Stack 'Em to the Heavens! on top.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' What's this, Mike?<br />
<br />
''{Mike displays the deck for the camera.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So now we got the, uh, action deck.<br />
<br />
''{Mike separates the top card from the rest of the deck.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' On top here we got the, um, rule card ''{flips the card}'' for the, uh, Marshie's Stack 'Em to the Heavens! game.<br />
<br />
''{Mike tosses the card on top of Marshie's bag. He displays the Action Deck.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' That's a separate mini-game, unrelated to the base game. You don't need to play it.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' You probably shouldn't.<br />
<br />
''{Mike turns over the first action card, Majesty.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Here's some of the action cards. Majesty...<br />
<br />
''{Mike puts the card back on the bottom of the deck and draws another, Shot Put.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Shot Put... Ptooey!<br />
<br />
''{Mike puts the card back and draws another, Sidewise.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' So these are what you'll be using each turn to modify your gameplay.<br />
<br />
''{Mike set the deck down on top of the Trog-Meter. He pulls out a deck featuring Trogdor on a compass rose.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And, uh, now onto the Movement deck.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' This is how the Knights and Peasants move.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' The countryside fights back with this one.<br />
<br />
''{Mike dislays a black card with dark gray peasant silhouettes on it reading "The Void."}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, and there's the... here's the void card. This is another...<br />
<br />
''{Mike flips the card, reading "Also The Void."}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Also the void.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' This is just where the dead peasants go.<br />
<br />
''{Mike sets down the void card next to the tiles. He tosses a peasant meeple on the card.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, poor guy!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, he just lays there. In the void.<br />
<br />
''{Mike puts the peasant back with the others.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Sorry, dead peasant.<br />
<br />
''{Mike puts the void card on top of the Trog-Meter. He shows the movement deck again.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, and then what else on the movement deck?<br />
<br />
''{Mike flips the top card. It displays a peasant movement.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Well, we've got, uh, peasant spawning information up in the top left corner, peasant movement, and then knight and archer movement there on the right. Lot of info on that card.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
''{Mike sets down the card. He pulls out another one and turns it upright.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Why are we looking at so many of these, Mike?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' We're gonna edit this out. ''{pulling out another card}'' We don't need to look at three of them, they're pretty much the same.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' I feel like we should keep it in.<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes the discarded movement cards.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' We're not perfect.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{setting down the movement deck}'' No, we're edit&mdash; we're gonna edit it out.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' I think we're gonna keep this in. <br />
<br />
''{Strong Sad reaches into the frame, waggling his fingers.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, and last up, I can't stand it any longer! Let's get to these plastic miniatures!<br />
<br />
''{Mike carefully lifts the plastic cover off the side of the box with the miniatures.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' All right, let's take the plastic cover off here.<br />
<br />
''{An emphatic SHUUMP! is heard as Mike slips the cover off.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Ooh, nice shuump!<br />
<br />
''{Pan across the plastic figures in their housing, starting with cottages on the bottom, up to the peasants, Trogdor, and the Troghammer, with the Knights and the Archers on the top.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Look at these! Pre paintèd, plastic miniatures sculpted by our friend Rick Van Velsor. Let's take a closer look!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to an empty space on the table. Mike places a peasant miniature.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Okay, and here's our screaming peasant. And then with his flame helmet.<br />
<br />
''{Mike holds the flame helmet in his fingers.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Look for the two licks of flame in the front. ''{Mike points to it}'' That's the best side to put on.<br />
<br />
''{Mike places the flame helmet on the figure.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And it'll&mdash; won't snap down, but it should hold.<br />
<br />
''{Mike flips the figure upside-down. He shakes it, and the flame helmet stays on.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' See, look, the... like a Dairy Queen Blizzard.<br />
<br />
''{Mike sets the peasant down.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Should stay upside down.<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes the peasant away. He places a cottage.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And what's next?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' A&mdash; a cottage!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{French emphasis}'' Oh, a cott''age''!<br />
<br />
''{Mike removes the roof and flips it, showing flames on the bottom side and setting it down.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look at that. Burninated cott''age''.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' I see.<br />
<br />
''{Mike turns the cottage to the rear.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' And look at my favorite part in the back. Look at that little door.<br />
<br />
''{Mike points to the door.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Ooh, where does it lead?<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes the cottage away.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Into the cottage, probably.<br />
<br />
''{Mike sets down a knight figure.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, good, good point! Ah, there's a knight. That's all.<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes the knight away. He sets down the Troghammer.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And there's the Troghammer. Looks real cool. Real intimidating.<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes the Troghammer away. He places the archers.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' The archers again.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{deep, croaky voice}'' Haldo! ''{coughs, then repeats in a very scratchy voice}'' Haldo!<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes the archers away.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Ooh! Remember their involvement!<br />
<br />
''{Mike places Trogdor.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And here he is! The Burninator himself. Look at that beefy arm! Now can I grease that up, Mike?<br />
<br />
''{Mike rotates the figure.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' With like a... a Q-tip full of olive oil, perhaps?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Sure.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Yeah? Season it with some garlic?<br />
<br />
''{Mike takes Trogdor away.}''<br />
<br />
''{Pan slowly over the empty game box with all the game pieces assembled outside of it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' So there you have it. The contents of Trogdor!! The Board Game laid bare.<br />
<br />
''{Fade to the game box with all the pieces assembled outside of it. Mike and Strong Sad flourish their hands over it.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Aah.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Whoa, that was pretty good, let's do it again!<br />
<br />
''{Mike and Strong Sad flourish their hands again, this time in opposite directions.}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Whoa.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' All right, I'll go down, you go up.<br />
<br />
''{Mike and Strong Sad flourish their hands again, this time the opposite way they did before.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Wi&mdash; uh. And uh, greetings!<br />
<br />
''{Mike and Strong Sad waggle their fingers at each other.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Now two points!<br />
<br />
''{Mike and Strong Sad each point two fingers into the shot, then pull out.}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the die with Strong Sad's face. "end." is written below it in white.}''<br />

<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Aw man! If only I had one more action point. I could burninate that peasant!<br />
<br />

<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Whaaaaaaa-?<br />
<br />

'''STRONG BAD:''' It's like new cards that they didn't think of the first time they made the game.<br />
<br />
'''BOARDLECTRIX NARRATOR:''' That's right. ''{Cut back to the wooden table, only a set of action cards are seen, spread out. A banner appears reading "New Action Cards".}'' Brand new action cards, with the kind of dumb names that you've come to expect!<br />

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Peasant Intern? Ah ha haaaa ha!<br />

<br />
''{Cut to the Bar, showing the board game up close. The Knight is seen on the left tile and Trodgor is two spaces away on the right tile. As Homestar says "East", the Knight jumps one tile to the right, heading towards Trogdor.}''<br />

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' The Knight moves East-East.<br />

</blockquote><br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*In the toon the expansion deck is spelled "Majicks", while on the [[store]] it is spelled "Magicks".<br />
*This toon is animated in a noticeably [[Higher Frames Per Second|higher frame rate]] at certain points. Some examples include Homestar shaking his Stray Action Point card, the "Expando Deck" splash screen appearing, and the "appear" effect of the cards showing up on the live action wooden table.<br />
*When the cards on the wooden table appear, the lighting becomes a bit darker.<br />
*The new cards that are seen and readable in the toon are as follows:<br />
** '''Action Cards'''<br />
*** ''The Trogorb'' - 4 AP - Before Trogdor's actions, flip over the top movement card to forsee the Peasant and Knight movements.<br />
*** ''Wraparound Burnination'' - 5 AP - Once during Trogdor's actions, if he is on an edge tile, he may burninate one corresponding wraparound tile for free.<br />
*** ''Flaming Haldo'' - 4 AP - If Trogdor ends his turn on the Archer, a flaming arrow is shot in the direction Trogdor last moved, burninating all countryside tiles from the Archer to the edge of the board.<br />
*** ''Sneak 'Em Up Stan'' - 4 AP - Before Trogdor's actions, he may teleport to any tile occupied by a Knight without taking damage.<br />
*** ''Peasant Intern'' - 5 AP - For this turn only, every Peasant Trogdor visits becomes a Junior Burninator. When Junior Burninators move, they burninate the tile they start on and the tile they move onto, even if they're supposed to Repair. Peasants stay on the board.<br />
** '''Emergency Cards'''<br />
*** ''Stray Action Point'' - Add 1 AP to Trogdor's actions.<br />
*** ''Troghammer Rejection'' - Ignore a Troghammer card. Discard it and keep playing.<br />
*** ''Instant Recharge'' - Recharge any one Item of Trogdor... expect for Disk of Healing. Sorry.<br />
*** ''Movement Card Snob'' - If you don't like the movement card that was JUST drawn, discard it and draw the next one instead. You gotta stick with that one though!<br />
*** ''Third String Keeper'' - Choose any one Keeper NOT currently in the game (like, still in the box). For this turn, use both their power and the current player's power.<br />
*** ''Tile Swappins'' - Swap any 2 empty map tiles.<br />
*** ''Singular Consummate V'' - Move Trogdor one tile diagonally now.<br />
** '''Spell of Un-Voidening'''<br />

<br />
<br>Announcing '''"Majicks & 'Mergencies,"''' an all-new Expando Deck for Trogdor!! The Board Game!<br />
<br />
<br>It's NOT a Kickstarter! It's already a thing! And it should be '''''for sale in the next few weeks!'''''<br />
<br />
<br>This deck contains awesome new cards that give players more options, more interesting choices, and more chaotic burnination!<br />
<br />
<br>* New communal '''Emergency Cards''' can be used '''anytime''' on '''anyone's turn''' to get Trogdor out of tight jams!<br />
<br>* New '''Spell Cards''' have mini sidequests to complete that can bring Peasants back from the Void!<br />

<br>'''Keep On Burninating On,'''<br />
<br>'''Mike, Matt, and Missy'''<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*In the toon the expansion deck is spelled "Majicks", while on the [[store]] it is spelled "Magicks".<br />
*This toon is animated in a noticeably [[Higher Frames Per Second|higher frame rate]] at certain points. Some examples include Homestar shaking his Stray Action Point card, the "Expando Deck" splash screen appearing, and the "appear" effect of the cards showing up on the live action wooden table.<br />
*When the cards on the wooden table appear, the lighting becomes a bit darker.<br />
*The new cards that are seen and readable in the toon are as follows:<br />
** '''Action Cards'''<br />
*** ''The Trogorb'' - 4 AP - Before Trogdor's actions, flip over the top movement card to forsee the Peasant and Knight movements.<br />
*** ''Wraparound Burnination'' - 5 AP - Once during Trogdor's actions, if he is on an edge tile, he may burninate one corresponding wraparound tile for free.<br />
*** ''Flaming [[Haldo]]'' - 4 AP - If Trogdor ends his turn on the Archer, a flaming arrow is shot in the direction Trogdor last moved, burninating all countryside tiles from the Archer to the edge of the board.<br />
*** ''Sneak 'Em Up Stan'' - 4 AP - Before Trogdor's actions, he may teleport to any tile occupied by a Knight without taking damage.<br />
*** ''Peasant Intern'' - 5 AP - For this turn only, every Peasant Trogdor visits becomes a Junior Burninator. When Junior Burninators move, they burninate the tile they start on and the tile they move onto, even if they're supposed to Repair. Peasants stay on the board.<br />
** '''Emergency Cards'''<br />
*** ''Stray Action Point'' - Add 1 AP to Trogdor's actions.<br />
*** ''Troghammer Rejection'' - Ignore a Troghammer card. Discard it and keep playing.<br />
*** ''Instant Recharge'' - Recharge any one Item of Trogdor... expect for Disk of Healing. Sorry.<br />
*** ''Movement Card Snob'' - If you don't like the movement card that was JUST drawn, discard it and draw the next one instead. You gotta stick with that one though!<br />
*** ''Third String Keeper'' - Choose any one Keeper NOT currently in the game (like, still in the box). For this turn, use both their power and the current player's power.<br />
*** ''Tile Swappins'' - Swap any 2 empty map tiles.<br />
*** ''Singular Consummate V'' - Move Trogdor one tile diagonally now.<br />
** '''Spell of Un-Voidening'''<br />
*** Perform these tasks (in any order) on a single turn to move one Peasant from the Void to the Trog-Meter.<br />
*** Card 1:<br />
****Burninate a tile Trogdor is not on<br />
****Visit a tile directly south of any Knight<br />
****End your turn on a burninated forest tile<br />
*** Card 2:<br />
****Move 3 tiles consecutively in the same direction<br />
****Visit the Archer<br />
****Hide in the Mountain<br />

<hr />
<div>Just a normal fan of H*R, that's all.<br />
<br />
I've been a fan of this Internet cartoon ever since 2009, where a friend of mine introduced me to it. The only H*R character I remember first seeing before that was Pom Pom on a really old (and horribly outdated) image hosting website called Photobucket. For whatever reason, the image of Pom Pom was just called "turtle", so I mistook the character as that since. The only merchandise I ever owned was SBCG4AP (before TellTale closed down and the game was delisted) and the Trogdor Board Game. I'm hoping to snag the Expando Deck and the Character Meeples soon!<br />

<br />
==Biography==<br />
'''Coach Z''' is the "[[Wikipedia:Coach (sport)|coach]]" of the residents of [[Free Country, USA]], though it is unclear exactly which sports he coaches. He has a strong accent, based on an [[Wikipedia:Upper Midwest|Upper Midwestern]] [[Wikipedia:North Central American English|accent]] (though it is also sometimes simply nonsensical) which is sometimes difficult for other characters to understand. While occasionally tiresome, he is always ready to offer encouragement and is rarely critical of anyone. When giving advice, he tends to start with the phrase "You can't just rush into the score zone", which has lost its meaning through time. <br />
<br />
Coach Z wears a blue and purple baseball cap and a large gold Z emblem around his waist. Nobody knows for sure whether his bright green color is his skin or a body suit. However, [[Middle School Variation#Baby Coach Z|baby Coach Z]] seems to be wearing footy pajamas in the email [[high school]], and on more than one occasion, Coach Z has mentioned his [[pants]]. In [[shapeshifter]], Coach Z referred to his outfit as his "sweaty sweat-sweats", which was seen to have at least one pocket, and in [[Fan Costumes 2017]] he is implied to have undressed. His head is a white sphere with light gray circles for eyes. Coach Z [[Lack of Visible Body Parts#Coach Z's Face|lacks a visible nose and mouth]], but is able to talk, eat, and spit with ease. He has long arms and large feet, but very short legs.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Coach z butt.PNG|thumb|An unshaven Coach Z talking about his butt.]]<br />
As Coach Z himself is not afraid to admit, he's got [[Who Said What Now?|more than two problems]]. Despite being a coach, he doesn't know what a basketball is, as indicated in [[secret recipes]]. It has been strongly implied that he has a crush on [[Marzipan]], and he has occasionally made inappropriate comments about her; [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 5.0#Message 6|one occasion]] [[Marzipan's Answering Machine|on her answering machine]] when he was drunk, and another during the commercial break of the 4Tst annual [[Fall Float Parade]]. In [[diorama]], Coach Z even refers to Marzipan as his "gorgeous girlfriend". He also has difficulty pronouncing certain words, such as "job" (as shown in the "[[A Jorb Well Done]]" cartoon), instead pronouncing it as "jorb", "jaerb", or "jorearb". In addition to his frequent mispronunciations, Coach Z also seems to have mental and gender confusion problems, as evidenced by the time he spent "talking to his parents" on a [[disconnected telephone]], and claiming to be a mother in [[garage sale]]. He has even stated on [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 8.0|one occasion]] that he sometimes "forgets what's real, and what's just in [his] head". He has an apparent fixation with butts, and he seems to have a habit of [[butt-patting]]. He also has a slight obsession with ointments and body creams, like using 'Blue Star Ointment' to scare people in [[Halloween Fairstival]]. Many characters see him as a nuisance. Even Homestar treated Coach Z with contempt in [[Decemberween Short Shorts]], quickly refusing to allow Coach Z to come to his house for [[Decemberween]].<br />
<br />
When not working as a coach, Coach Z works with [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Bubs]] as the apparent [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon|local law enforcement]] in [[Free Country, USA]]. Coach Z is also the janitor at [[the office]] where Homestar and [[Strong Bad]] work. He is paid on hourly wage and is clearly jealous that Strong Bad is paid on salary. He has also spent time [[Blubb-O's Commercial|dressed as the Blubb-O's Drive-Thru Whale]] mascot. Coach Z owns four [[Wikipedia:Tony Award|Tony awards]], suggesting that he may have a background in theatre. Despite his numerous jobs, Coach Z has trouble managing his money, causing his electricity to be shut off each year.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Babycz.PNG|thumb|left|115px|The craptain of the foortball torm!]]<br />
Coach Z is a fan of hip-hop and rap music, particularly the [[Wikipedia:Wu-Tang Clan|Wu-Tang Clan]]. He fancies himself a rapper as well: He released the single "[[These Peoples Try to Fade Me]]", which appeared on [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], his solo album, entitled "The Z Is All Up Ins", features the smash hit "[[New Boots|Hip Hop Dance]]", and his own rap song, "[[Rap Song]]" (featuring [[Peacey P]] and [[Tenerence Love]]). Although his usual rapping prowess consists mainly of "count[ing] to two over and over again", as explained in [[nightlife]], he once had a very successful career during his days in the [[Two-o Duo]]. More recent works such as "[[Loading Screens]]" and "[[Fish Eye Lens]]" may indicate that his rap skills are starting to improve.<br />
<br />
[[Image:CoachZ3D.png|thumb|"Hey, watch where y'er pointin' that 3D!"]]<br />
Coach Z's [[Ages of Characters|age]] is ambiguous, as he appears to be grown up when Strong Bad was a kid in the email [[stand-up]] as well as appearing as an adult in 1974 in the 'toon [[Decemberween short shorts]] while they both appeared to be babies in the email [[high school]] (although this may simply be a product of Strong Bad's [[History According to Strong Bad|"doodle memory"]]). He is likely to be one of the older characters, since in [[caffeine]], Strong Sad's slaps provoke him to cry out "I'm just an old man!"; in [[slumber party]], Strong Bad refers to him, [[Bubs]], and [[The King of Town]] as "older kids"; and while narrating an interaction between Coach Z and Bubs in [[narrator]], Strong Bad labels them both as "weird old men". <br />
<br />
Coach Z and [[Bubs]] [[Bubs and Coach Z's Relationship|had a falling out]] at one point, as [[Fall Float Parade]] shows us; Bubs makes a "Coach Z, you jerk!" float for the parade, and Coach Z retaliates by saying "Serves him right, then" when [[Strong Mad]] steals [[Bubs Concession Stand|his concession stand]]. In the email [[narrator]], it was shown that they had made-up and returned to having boring conversations about [[Bubs's napkins]]. However, in [[Most In The Graveyard]], when it is implied that Coach Z fancies Bubs' sister, Bubs beats him up. In the same toon, it is also revealed that Coach Z and Bubs may actually be very distant cousins, although Bubs finds this hard to believe.<br />

==Coach Z's Accent==<br />
The primary factor in his hilarity, Coach Z's Upper Midwestern accent has made him into a very quotable character.<br />
<br />
===Sounds Affected===<br />
The most commonly mispronounced sounds are long e (e.g. The Cheat) and the short o (job), which both come out as an "or" or "aer" ("The Chort", "jaerb"), although in a few toons such as [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]], he's shown to purposely do it.<br />

===Inconsistencies===<br />
<br />
Evidence has suggested that Coach Z's accent may be bogus:<br />
*After saying "track or trort" in [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]], Bubs gets on his case and he says "trick or treat" correctly. If given "Swedish Fish", said as "Swordish Forsh", Bubs gets on his case again and Coach Z says "It's a crowd-pleaser."<br />
*In [[boring (really)]], while Strong Bad is writing his list of three-letter words, Coach Z interrupts him at the word "job", saying that "jorb is a four letters word."<br />
*Coach Z says "The Cheat" immediately after "The Chort" in [[mascot]], though he speaks as though he's talking about two different people. He also refers to "Cheat kickers" just before suggesting to "[[Kicking The Cheat|kick The Chort]]" in [[Baddest of the Bands]].<br />
*In the DVD commentary for [[part-time job]], [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] exploits Coach Z's "accent" by implying that not only does Coach Z add the letter R to words, but now also likes to switch letters around sometimes, and in reply Coach Z partially admits to his accent being bogus.<br />
*In [[cliffhangers]], in the process of his attempted unmasking of [[The Thnikkaman]], he says "secret sorcret" twice, referring to Thnikkaman's secret being revealed and his shame in having really bad hand-eye coordination.<br />
*While playing [[Renaldo]] in [[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]], he pronounces "off" both correctly and incorrectly in the same sentence.<br />
*In [[Loading Screens]], Coach Z's accent is much less pronounced than usual.<br />
* In [[Fish Eye Lens]], Coach Z tells Strong Bad "the people" need him. Strong Bad questions him, and he amends to say "the pyorple".<br />
This is inconsistent with the clear despair it causes him in [[A Jorb Well Done]], though it is possible that he's truly gained control over his accent after the mentioned toon, and he just keeps it around for the aesthetic.<br />

*It was revealed in issue #21 of [[Wonkavision Magazine Interview|Wonkavision]] magazine that Coach Z is named after [[Craig Zobel]].<br />
*According to [[trading cards]], Coach Z gave 23 [[Butt-Patting|butt pats]] in 1984 (22 to Homestar, 1 to himself).<br />
*Coach Z was originally known as "Coach Zee".<br />
*Strong Bad referred to Coach Z as "Green Bubs" in the email [[road trip]].<br />
*In [[Date Nite]] he is shown without his hat and wearing hair curlers, despite a lack of visible hair.<br />
*On Coach Z's emblem, the darker blue shine streak under the gold Z makes a backwards Z formation.<br />
*According to the [[Old Characters Page]], Coach Z wasn't much of a coach at the time, and he just added the title because it sounded "cooler than just Z". He has been seen coaching on numerous occasions since then, though his talent at it is still dubious at best.<br />
*Coach Z is given a new display of angry eyes, as shown in [[Kick-A-Ball]] and [[hremail 3184]].<br />

=== [[Halloween Costumes]] ===<br />
In each Homestar Runner Halloween special, Coach Z has dressed up as something rap or [[hip-hop]]-related, or in the case of Theo Huxtable and Malcolm, something he ''believes'' to be hip-hop related. (The [[wikipedia:Noid|Noid]] and [[wikipedia:Bob and Doug McKenzie|Doug McKenzie]] costumes were not released.) Strong Bad has questioned how much Coach Z actually knows about these artists.<br />

{{about|main character}} {{for|[[Teen Girl Squad]] character|Olympic Man and Coach}} <br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
'''Coach Z''' is the "[[Wikipedia:Coach (sport)|coach]]" of the residents of [[Free Country, USA]], though it is unclear exactly which sports he coaches. He has a strong accent, based on an [[Wikipedia:Upper Midwest|Upper Midwestern]] [[Wikipedia:North Central American English|accent]] (though it is also sometimes simply nonsensical) which is sometimes difficult for other characters to understand. While occasionally tiresome, he is always ready to offer encouragement and is rarely critical of anyone. When giving advice, he tends to start with the phrase "You can't just rush into the score zone", which has lost its meaning through time. <br />
<br />
Coach Z wears a blue and purple baseball cap and a large gold Z emblem around his waist. Nobody knows for sure whether his bright green color is his skin or a body suit. However, [[Middle School Variation#Baby Coach Z|baby Coach Z]] seems to be wearing footy pajamas in the email [[high school]], and on more than one occasion, Coach Z has mentioned his [[pants]]. In [[shapeshifter]], Coach Z referred to his outfit as his "sweaty sweat-sweats", which was seen to have at least one pocket, and in [[Fan Costumes 2017]] he is implied to have undressed. His head is a white sphere with light gray circles for eyes. Coach Z [[Lack of Visible Body Parts#Coach Z's Face|lacks a visible nose and mouth]], but is able to talk, eat, and spit with ease. He has long arms and large feet, but very short legs.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Coach z butt.PNG|thumb|An unshaven Coach Z talking about his butt.]]<br />
As Coach Z himself is not afraid to admit, he's got [[Who Said What Now?|more than two problems]]. Despite being a coach, he doesn't know what a basketball is, as indicated in [[secret recipes]]. It has been strongly implied that he has a crush on [[Marzipan]], and he has occasionally made inappropriate comments about her; [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 5.0#Message 6|one occasion]] [[Marzipan's Answering Machine|on her answering machine]] when he was drunk, and another during the commercial break of the 4Tst annual [[Fall Float Parade]]. In [[diorama]], Coach Z even refers to Marzipan as his "gorgeous girlfriend". He also has difficulty pronouncing certain words, such as "job" (as shown in the "[[A Jorb Well Done]]" cartoon), instead pronouncing it as "jorb", "jaerb", or "jorearb". In addition to his frequent mispronunciations, Coach Z also seems to have mental and gender confusion problems, as evidenced by the time he spent "talking to his parents" on a [[disconnected telephone]], and claiming to be a mother in [[garage sale]]. He has even stated on [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 8.0|one occasion]] that he sometimes "forgets what's real, and what's just in [his] head". He has an apparent fixation with butts, and he seems to have a habit of [[butt-patting]]. He also has a slight obsession with ointments and body creams, like using 'Blue Star Ointment' to scare people in [[Halloween Fairstival]]. Many characters see him as a nuisance. Even Homestar treated Coach Z with contempt in [[Decemberween Short Shorts]], quickly refusing to allow Coach Z to come to his house for [[Decemberween]].<br />
<br />
When not working as a coach, Coach Z works with [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Bubs]] as the apparent [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon|local law enforcement]] in [[Free Country, USA]]. Coach Z is also the janitor at [[the office]] where Homestar and [[Strong Bad]] work. He is paid on hourly wage and is clearly jealous that Strong Bad is paid on salary. He has also spent time [[Blubb-O's Commercial|dressed as the Blubb-O's Drive-Thru Whale]] mascot. Coach Z owns four [[Wikipedia:Tony Award|Tony awards]], suggesting that he may have a background in theatre. Despite his numerous jobs, Coach Z has trouble managing his money, causing his electricity to be shut off each year.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Babycz.PNG|thumb|left|115px|The craptain of the foortball torm!]]<br />
Coach Z is a fan of hip-hop and rap music, particularly the [[Wikipedia:Wu-Tang Clan|Wu-Tang Clan]]. He fancies himself a rapper as well: He released the single "[[These Peoples Try to Fade Me]]", which appeared on [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], his solo album, entitled "The Z Is All Up Ins", features the smash hit "[[New Boots|Hip Hop Dance]]", and his own rap song, "[[Rap Song]]" (featuring [[Peacey P]] and [[Tenerence Love]]). Although his usual rapping prowess consists mainly of "count[ing] to two over and over again", as explained in [[nightlife]], he once had a very successful career during his days in the [[Two-o Duo]]. More recent works such as "[[Loading Screens]]" and "[[Fish Eye Lens]]" may indicate that his rap skills are starting to improve.<br />
<br />
[[Image:CoachZ3D.png|thumb|"Hey, watch where y'er pointin' that 3D!"]]<br />
Coach Z's [[Ages of Characters|age]] is ambiguous, as he appears to be grown up when Strong Bad was a kid in the email [[stand-up]] as well as appearing as an adult in 1974 in the 'toon [[Decemberween short shorts]] while they both appeared to be babies in the email [[high school]] (although this may simply be a product of Strong Bad's [[History According to Strong Bad|"doodle memory"]]). He is likely to be one of the older characters, since in [[caffeine]], Strong Sad's slaps provoke him to cry out "I'm just an old man!"; in [[slumber party]], Strong Bad refers to him, [[Bubs]], and [[The King of Town]] as "older kids"; and while narrating an interaction between Coach Z and Bubs in [[narrator]], Strong Bad labels them both as "weird old men". <br />
<br />
Coach Z and [[Bubs]] [[Bubs and Coach Z's Relationship|had a falling out]] at one point, as [[Fall Float Parade]] shows us; Bubs makes a "Coach Z, you jerk!" float for the parade, and Coach Z retaliates by saying "Serves him right, then" when [[Strong Mad]] steals [[Bubs Concession Stand|his concession stand]]. In the email [[narrator]], it was shown that they had made-up and returned to having boring conversations about [[Bubs's napkins]]. However, in [[Most In The Graveyard]], when it is implied that Coach Z fancies Bubs' sister, Bubs beats him up. In the same toon, it is also revealed that Coach Z and Bubs may actually be very distant cousins, although Bubs finds this hard to believe.<br />

==Coach Z's Accent==<br />
The primary factor in his hilarity, Coach Z's Upper Midwestern accent has made him into a very quotable character.<br />
<br />
===Sounds Affected===<br />
The most commonly mispronounced sounds are long e (e.g. The Cheat) and the short o (job), which both come out as an "or" or "aer" ("The Chort", "jaerb"), although in a few toons such as [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]], he's shown to purposely do it.<br />

===Inconsistencies===<br />
<br />
Evidence has suggested that Coach Z's accent may be bogus:<br />
*After saying "track or trort" in [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]], Bubs gets on his case and he says "trick or treat" correctly. If given "Swedish Fish", said as "Swordish Forsh", Bubs gets on his case again and Coach Z says "It's a crowd-pleaser."<br />
*In [[boring (really)]], while Strong Bad is writing his list of three-letter words, Coach Z interrupts him at the word "job", saying that "jorb is a four letters word."<br />
*Coach Z says "The Cheat" immediately after "The Chort" in [[mascot]], though he speaks as though he's talking about two different people. He also refers to "Cheat kickers" just before suggesting to "[[Kicking The Cheat|kick The Chort]]" in [[Baddest of the Bands]].<br />
*In the DVD commentary for [[part-time job]], [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] exploits Coach Z's "accent" by implying that not only does Coach Z add the letter R to words, but now also likes to switch letters around sometimes, and in reply Coach Z partially admits to his accent being bogus.<br />
*In [[cliffhangers]], in the process of his attempted unmasking of [[The Thnikkaman]], he says "secret sorcret" twice, referring to Thnikkaman's secret being revealed and his shame in having really bad hand-eye coordination.<br />
*While playing [[Renaldo]] in [[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]], he pronounces "off" both correctly and incorrectly in the same sentence.<br />
*In [[Loading Screens]], Coach Z's accent is much less pronounced than usual.<br />
* In [[Fish Eye Lens]], Coach Z tells Strong Bad "the people" need him. Strong Bad questions him, and he amends to say "the pyorple".<br />
This is inconsistent with the clear despair it causes him in [[A Jorb Well Done]], though it is possible that he's truly gained control over his accent after the mentioned toon, and he just keeps it around for the aesthetic.<br />

== Fun Facts ==<br />
*Coach Z's accent came from a depressing Midwestern voice that [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] and some friends would do in college.<br />
*It was revealed in issue #21 of [[Wonkavision Magazine Interview|Wonkavision]] magazine that Coach Z is named after [[Craig Zobel]].<br />
*According to [[trading cards]], Coach Z gave 23 [[Butt-Patting|butt pats]] in 1984 (22 to Homestar, 1 to himself).<br />
*Coach Z was originally known as "Coach Zee".<br />
*Strong Bad referred to Coach Z as "Green Bubs" in the email [[road trip]].<br />
*In [[Date Nite]] he is shown without his hat and wearing hair curlers, despite a lack of visible hair.<br />
*On Coach Z's emblem, the darker blue shine streak under the gold Z makes a backwards Z formation.<br />
*According to the [[Old Characters Page]], Coach Z wasn't much of a coach at the time, and he just added the title because it sounded "cooler than just Z". He has been seen coaching on numerous occasions since then, though his talent at it is still dubious at best.<br />
*Coach Z is given a new display of angry eyes, as shown in [[Kick-A-Ball]] and [[hremail 3184]].<br />

=== [[Halloween Costumes]] ===<br />
In each Homestar Runner Halloween special, Coach Z has dressed up as something rap or [[hip-hop]]-related, or in the case of Theo Huxtable and Malcolm, something he ''believes'' to be hip-hop related. (The [[wikipedia:Noid|Noid]] and [[wikipedia:Bob and Doug McKenzie|Doug McKenzie]] costumes were not released.) Strong Bad has questioned how much Coach Z actually knows about these artists.<br />

{{about|main character}} {{for|[[Teen Girl Squad]] character|Olympic Man and Coach}} <br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
'''Coach Z''' is the "[[Wikipedia:Coach (sport)|coach]]" of the residents of [[Free Country, USA]], though it is unclear exactly which sports he coaches. He has a strong accent, based on an [[Wikipedia:Upper Midwest|Upper Midwestern]] [[Wikipedia:North Central American English|accent]] (though it is also sometimes simply nonsensical) which is sometimes difficult for other characters to understand. While occasionally tiresome, he is always ready to offer encouragement and is rarely critical of anyone. When giving advice, he tends to start with the phrase "You can't just rush into the score zone", which has lost its meaning through time. <br />
<br />
Coach Z wears a blue and purple baseball cap and a large gold Z emblem around his waist. Nobody knows for sure whether his bright green color is his skin or a body suit. However, [[Middle School Variation#Baby Coach Z|baby Coach Z]] seems to be wearing footy pajamas in the email [[high school]], and on more than one occasion, Coach Z has mentioned his [[pants]]. In [[shapeshifter]], Coach Z referred to his outfit as his "sweaty sweat-sweats", which was seen to have at least one pocket, and in [[Fan Costumes 2017]] he is implied to have undressed. His head is a white sphere with light gray circles for eyes. Coach Z [[Lack of Visible Body Parts#Coach Z's Face|lacks a visible nose and mouth]], but is able to talk, eat, and spit with ease. He has long arms and large feet, but very short legs.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Coach z butt.PNG|thumb|An unshaven Coach Z talking about his butt.]]<br />
As Coach Z himself is not afraid to admit, he's got [[Who Said What Now?|more than two problems]]. Despite being a coach, he doesn't know what a basketball is, as indicated in [[secret recipes]]. It has been strongly implied that he has a crush on [[Marzipan]], and he has occasionally made inappropriate comments about her; [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 5.0#Message 6|one occasion]] [[Marzipan's Answering Machine|on her answering machine]] when he was drunk, and another during the commercial break of the 4Tst annual [[Fall Float Parade]]. In [[diorama]], Coach Z even refers to Marzipan as his "gorgeous girlfriend". He also has difficulty pronouncing certain words, such as "job" (as shown in the "[[A Jorb Well Done]]" cartoon), instead pronouncing it as "jorb", "jaerb", or "jorearb". In addition to his frequent mispronunciations, Coach Z also seems to have mental and gender confusion problems, as evidenced by the time he spent "talking to his parents" on a [[disconnected telephone]], and claiming to be a mother in [[garage sale]]. He has even stated on [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 8.0|one occasion]] that he sometimes "forgets what's real, and what's just in [his] head". He has an apparent fixation with butts, and he seems to have a habit of [[butt-patting]]. He also has a slight obsession with ointments and body creams, like using 'Blue Star Ointment' to scare people in [[Halloween Fairstival]]. Many characters see him as a nuisance. Even Homestar treated Coach Z with contempt in [[Decemberween Short Shorts]], quickly refusing to allow Coach Z to come to his house for [[Decemberween]].<br />
<br />
When not working as a coach, Coach Z works with [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Bubs]] as the apparent [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon|local law enforcement]] in [[Free Country, USA]]. Coach Z is also the janitor at [[the office]] where Homestar and [[Strong Bad]] work. He is paid on hourly wage and is clearly jealous that Strong Bad is paid on salary. He has also spent time [[Blubb-O's Commercial|dressed as the Blubb-O's Drive-Thru Whale]] mascot. Coach Z owns four [[Wikipedia:Tony Award|Tony awards]], suggesting that he may have a background in theatre. Despite his numerous jobs, Coach Z has trouble managing his money, causing his electricity to be shut off each year.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Babycz.PNG|thumb|left|115px|The craptain of the foortball torm!]]<br />
Coach Z is a fan of hip-hop and rap music, particularly the [[Wikipedia:Wu-Tang Clan|Wu-Tang Clan]]. He fancies himself a rapper as well: He released the single "[[These Peoples Try to Fade Me]]", which appeared on [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], his solo album, entitled "The Z Is All Up Ins", features the smash hit "[[New Boots|Hip Hop Dance]]", and his own rap song, "[[Rap Song]]" (featuring [[Peacey P]] and [[Tenerence Love]]). Although his usual rapping prowess consists mainly of "count[ing] to two over and over again", as explained in [[nightlife]], he once had a very successful career during his days in the [[Two-o Duo]]. More recent works such as "[[Loading Screens]]" and "[[Fish Eye Lens]]" may indicate that his rap skills are starting to improve.<br />
<br />
[[Image:CoachZ3D.png|thumb|"Hey, watch where y'er pointin' that 3D!"]]<br />
Coach Z's [[Ages of Characters|age]] is ambiguous, as he appears to be grown up when Strong Bad was a kid in the email [[stand-up]] as well as appearing as an adult in 1974 in the 'toon [[Decemberween short shorts]] while they both appeared to be babies in the email [[high school]] (although this may simply be a product of Strong Bad's [[History According to Strong Bad|"doodle memory"]]). He is likely to be one of the older characters, since in [[caffeine]], Strong Sad's slaps provoke him to cry out "I'm just an old man!"; in [[slumber party]], Strong Bad refers to him, [[Bubs]], and [[The King of Town]] as "older kids"; and while narrating an interaction between Coach Z and Bubs in [[narrator]], Strong Bad labels them both as "weird old men". <br />
<br />
Coach Z and [[Bubs]] [[Bubs and Coach Z's Relationship|had a falling out]] at one point, as [[Fall Float Parade]] shows us; Bubs makes a "Coach Z, you jerk!" float for the parade, and Coach Z retaliates by saying "Serves him right, then" when [[Strong Mad]] steals [[Bubs Concession Stand|his concession stand]]. In the email [[narrator]], it was shown that they had made-up and returned to having boring conversations about [[Bubs's napkins]]. However, in [[Most In The Graveyard]], when it is implied that Coach Z fancies Bubs' sister, Bubs beats him up. In the same toon, it is also revealed that Coach Z and Bubs may actually be very distant cousins, although Bubs finds this hard to believe.<br />

==Coach Z's Accent==<br />
The primary factor in his hilarity, Coach Z's Upper Midwestern accent has made him into a very quotable character.<br />
<br />
===Sounds Affected===<br />
The most commonly mispronounced sounds are long e (e.g. The Cheat) and the short o (job), which both come out as an "or" or "aer" ("The Chort", "jaerb"), although in a few toons such as [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]], he's shown to purposely do it.<br />

===Inconsistencies===<br />
<br />
Evidence has suggested that Coach Z's accent may be bogus:<br />
*After saying "track or trort" in [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]], Bubs gets on his case and he says "trick or treat" correctly. If given "Swedish Fish", said as "Swordish Forsh", Bubs gets on his case again and Coach Z says "It's a crowd-pleaser."<br />
*In [[boring (really)]], while Strong Bad is writing his list of three-letter words, Coach Z interrupts him at the word "job", saying that "jorb is a four letters word."<br />
*Coach Z says "The Cheat" immediately after "The Chort" in [[mascot]], though he speaks as though he's talking about two different people. He also refers to "Cheat kickers" just before suggesting to "[[Kicking The Cheat|kick The Chort]]" in [[Baddest of the Bands]].<br />
*In the DVD commentary for [[part-time job]], [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] exploits Coach Z's "accent" by implying that not only does Coach Z add the letter R to words, but now also likes to switch letters around sometimes, and in reply Coach Z partially admits to his accent being bogus.<br />
*In [[cliffhangers]], in the process of his attempted unmasking of [[The Thnikkaman]], he says "secret sorcret" twice, referring to Thnikkaman's secret being revealed and his shame in having really bad hand-eye coordination.<br />
*While playing [[Renaldo]] in [[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]], he pronounces "off" both correctly and incorrectly in the same sentence.<br />
*In [[Loading Screens]], Coach Z's accent is much less pronounced than usual.<br />
* In [[Fish Eye Lens]], Coach Z tells Strong Bad "the people" need him. Strong Bad questions him, and he amends to say "the pyorple".<br />
This is inconsistent with the clear despair it causes him in [[A Jorb Well Done]], though it is possible that he's truly gained control over his accent after the mentioned toon, and he just keeps it around for the aesthetic.<br />

*Coach Z's accent came from a depressing Midwestern voice that [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] and some friends would do in college.<br />
*It was revealed in issue #21 of [[Wonkavision Magazine Interview|Wonkavision]] magazine that Coach Z is named after [[Craig Zobel]].<br />
*According to [[trading cards]], Coach Z gave 23 [[Butt-Patting|butt pats]] in 1984 (22 to Homestar, 1 to himself).<br />
*Coach Z was originally known as "Coach Zee".<br />
*Strong Bad referred to Coach Z as "Green Bubs" in the email [[road trip]].<br />
*In [[Date Nite]] he is shown without his hat and wearing hair curlers, despite a lack of visible hair.<br />
*On Coach Z's emblem, the darker blue shine streak under the gold Z makes a backwards Z formation.<br />
*According to the [[Old Characters Page]], Coach Z wasn't much of a coach at the time, and he just added the title because it sounded "cooler than just Z". He has been seen coaching on numerous occasions since then, though his talent at it is still dubious at best.<br />
*Coach Z is given a new display of angry eyes, as shown in [[Kick-A-Ball]] and [[hremail 3184]].<br />

<br />
=== [[Halloween Costumes]] ===<br />
In each Homestar Runner Halloween special, Coach Z has dressed up as something rap or [[hip-hop]]-related, or in the case of Theo Huxtable and Malcolm, something he ''believes'' to be hip-hop related. (The [[wikipedia:Noid|Noid]] and [[wikipedia:Bob and Doug McKenzie|Doug McKenzie]] costumes were not released.) Strong Bad has questioned how much Coach Z actually knows about these artists.<br />

<br />
''{Strong Bad reads "S to the Bad" as "Stothe Bad" and "FL" as "for life".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Don't sweat it, Mike. You're already on the right track by coming to me first. Instead of, ya know, like, your parents or a medical professional or any number of ''{text begins to become smaller as his voice gets quieter}'' non-email checking wrestlemen. ''{clears screen}'' And while I'm no dad meself, I actually do have some expertise on the subject. Turns out we all had to try out some child rearing in one of the nebulous health classes ''{The "health classes" text becomes wavy, distorted and starts to grow. The entire screen dims except the area around those words, while various "spooky" sound effects play. Traffic sounds also play. Eventually, the words and screen return to normal with a "pop" sound effect, and Strong Bad continues}'' that we for some reason allow Coach Z to teach us. <br />
<br />
''{Cut to a panning shot of Marzipan, Homestar and Strong Bad looking questioningly at bags of banana pudding.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' We were all given sammich bags full of banana puddin' to take care of as practice for raisin' a baby.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Coach Z, standing by a sign reading "HEY! A GOOD PERSON" with an arrow pointing at Coach Z himself.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' All right, potential parental units, you all have your R.H.B's, ''{produces his own bag of pudding}'' or as we in the medical field call ‘em: ''{He turns the page on the sign, showing a drawing of a bag of pudding with a face on it labeled:}'' “Real Human Babies”. Now, the next 18 to 35 years o' yer life are gonna revolve around keepin' this thing alive-slash-in a wi-fi hotspot. ''{He turns the page again, showing the pudding with a smartphone with a wi-fi symbol over its head.}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' How is this slopsack anything like a real human baby?<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Coach Z}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Exaca like an R.H.B.! It's small, it's mushy, smells like plastic, and it's fulla yellow goop! And whichever one o' youse keeps theirs alive the longest{{--}}<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the King of Town, who has opened his bag and is slurping up the last of the pudding through a straw.}''<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' And I'm out! ''{leaves}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to Coach Z.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' {{--}}gets a different bag of pistachio puddin' ''{holds up bag of pistachio pudding}'' as a ''re''ward!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar and Strong Bad}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{mumbling, with a different pose for each line as though imitating a whole crowd:}'' Oh, sounds pretty good! Didja hear? Pistachio pudding! Bag of pudding! Have you heard the latest news? Not a bad pudding! Sounds like a pretty sweet deal. Whadja say? I wasn't listening.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad gives Homestar an annoyed expression as crickets chirp for a few seconds.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What? I can be a one-man hubbub.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Coach Z}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Now get out there in that fierld and show me some defense!<br />
<br />
''{A whistle sounds as the scene wipes to Homestar, Marzipan, Strong Bad, Strong Mad, Strong Sad, and The Cheat shuffling around on a football field with Coach Z's silhouette in the foreground.}''<br />
<br />
'''ALL BUT COACH Z:''' ''{indistinct grunts}''<br /><br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' shimmy shimmy...<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Or... I mean... do all the good baby stuff and whatnot.<br />
<br />
''{Silhouettes of the six students appear, break off into pairs, and walk away from each other. A drum beat starts.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And so, we paired off into... er, pairs, and set off to experience the ponders of warenting.<br />
<br />
''{A splash screen with those last four words appears.}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad and The Cheat. The Cheat is holding the corner of the bag of pudding in his mouth. Its seal has come undone, and some of the pudding has dripped down to the floor.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Don't hold her like that! She'll get the droops! You gotta hold her by the corners. Like you would a real baby.<br />
<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{with an upset expression}'' ''{The Cheat noises}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well this ain't no Cheat-pup! Give it here! ''{He takes the bag and holds it up by the corners.}'' There there, pud-wad. Let's just settle down and scoop your brains back in. ''{He kneels down and starts scooping the pudding off the floor and back into the bag.}'' Like you would a real baby.<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, still reading "The Ponders of Warenting".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Sad, who has his bag of pudding sitting on top of some paper towels, with safety pins and a jar of talcum powder nearby.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oookay, gotta change this baby. Let's see... ''{cut to a view from above the bag, looking at Strong Sad}'' Triangle, quarter to tip, tuck down, scrimshaw right, scrimshaw left, and done!<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to show the bag of pudding now sitting in a paper hat. Strong Mad appears, holding an origami crane with banana pudding dripping from it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' I FORGOT TO SCRIMSHAW LEFT!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, still reading "The Ponders of Warenting".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad and The Cheat, walking toward the King of Town, who is behind a host podium at what appears to be a restaurant. A sign above them reads "SteaKasTle", with a T-bone steak in place of the "T". Strong Bad is wearing a baby carrier holding his and The Cheat's pudding bag.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Say there, local proprietor! My coparent ''{indicating The Cheat}'' and I were wondering if this is a family-friendly establishment. <br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' Oh, sure! I've been friendly to families at least a couple of times. Maybe you guys will get lucky! ''{winks while a "splat" sound effect plays}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{recoiling}'' Never wink at me again. ''{turns back to the King}'' Table for two, please, plus a highchair.<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' I've got this '70s highchair. ''{turns around}''<br />
<br />
''{Wipe to a rusty bear trap on chair legs with a rubber duck sitting inside it and cobwebs hanging from it. It shakes for a moment, and the trap snaps shut, severing the duck's head. A bubble appears above it reading "APPROVED BY 70's PEDIATRICIANS".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooooh, uh, ''{cut back to the three characters}'' maybe I'll just put her in my lap. You got a kids menu?<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' I've got this '70s kids menu.<br />
<br />
''{He produces a menu, which we then see in closeup. The top of the menu reads "SteaKasTle Kids' menu". On the left is a picture of a steak, labeled "Steak (Market Price)". Next to it is an "Activity Maze!", which is an empty rectangle with right-pointing arrows at the left ("start") and right ("end") labeled "Help the Steak get to the Cigar for smooth enjoyment! On the right is a lit cigar labeled "Cigars (Vincent Price)".}''<br />
<br />
'''LADY:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh, Barbara, what a riot!<br />
<br />
''{A bubble appears over the menu reading "APPROVED BY 70'S MOMS".}''<br />
<br />
'''LADY:''' ''{voiceover}'' Let's order one for the kids! I'll eat their cigars if they don't finish.<br />
<br />
''{The bubble's text changes to "SHUT UP, LADY!" Cut back to the characters, with Strong Bad looking extremely annoyed.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Do I even wanna know the condition of your '70s bathroom?<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' It's more like a ''seventeen''-seventies bathroom. ''{turns around}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a hole in the ground near the King's castle with bricks around it, a sign reading "the privy, prithee", and a roll of toilet paper reading "strides of great progreſſ" and "progreſſo soup". The Poopsmith leans out from behind the castle, giving the thumbs up, and then smirks. Cut back to Strong Bad, The Cheat, and the King.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{recoiling again}'' Gah! Unexpected Poopsmirk! That's it, we're going to a real family restaurant! ''{He and The Cheat turn to leave, and then both abruptly stop as Strong Bad turns around to say:}'' Like the micro-brewery! ''{They continue, then stop again.}'' Or a craft distillery! ''{They continue, then stop again.}'' Or that vape shop that also sells hot fries!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, still reading "The Ponders of Warenting".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar and Marzipan in Marzipan's kitchen. Homestar is wearing goggles and has a clothespin on his chin. A bag of pudding is on the counter, with a potted plant nearby.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' It's also important that we never water the plants in front of her. ''{He pushes the plant away from the bag.}'' Babies have inverse agricultural tendencies when they're this young. "Inverse" means "opposite", Marzipan, so she might grow up thinking you should ''never'' water plants! And that's just wrong. Just plain old dang old wrong. You have to water plants, Marzipan. With sunlight.<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{looming over Homestar more and more with each word, but constantly smiling and in a friendly voice}'' You have no idea what you're talking about, and I disagree with everything that comes out of your mouth, you lump of underbitten cluelessness.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{incredibly confused}'' Um, are you okay? It's like mean-say Marzipan's brain is coming out of nice-say Marzipan's face!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{stepping back from Homestar}'' Babies understand tone and body language. So it's very important that she doesn't know how much we hate each other until she's in college.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oooohh! Mean-say mean-say!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, now reading "The Donders of Warranty".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The donders of warranty!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a tablet, showing a screen with a diaper with a face and reading "SCREENBY SITTER". A bag of pudding is taped to it. The diaper on the tablet hovers around and speaks.}''<br />
<br />
'''SCREENBY SITTER:''' Eh-heh-heh-heh! You're doing great! Your parents are busy!<br />
<br />
''{Strong Sad's hand appears and picks up the tablet.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Strong Mad!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the door of Strong Mad's room. Strong Mad's silhouette is in the foreground, while Strong Sad holds the tablet and bag.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Did you tape the baby to a tablet so you could play video games on a different tablet for six hours?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' A DIFFERENT MORE EXPENSIVE TABLET!<br />
<br />
''{The screen pans over and Strong Mad comes into focus. He holds up a larger tablet than the first, which has "CLAPPING PARTY MOBILE!" playing on it. The tablet shines and the word "PRO" emanates from it.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR:''' Pro!<br />
<br />
'''SCREENBY SITTER:''' Eh-heh-heh-heh! Don't turn me off! I can teach you about... ''{considers for a moment}'' screens!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, now reading "The Jodhpurs of Clarencing".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The jodhpurs of clarencing!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar, wearing a gray jacket, holding a cup of Hot Jones, and staring at a smartphone. Behind him is a swing set in a sandbox. One bag of pudding is sitting in a swing, while another sits nearby with a toy shovel planted in the ground next to it.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What's that, sweetie? Daddy's working! ''{drinks some Jones}'' Uh huh, I see! That's great, sweetie! That's... some real... development... right there, that's... fine motor. Mommydaddy's so proud of you!<br />
<br />
''{The bag in the swing falls out of it, bumping into the other bag.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oopsie! Did someone have a fall-down-badoopsie?<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad suddenly runs up.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey! Your kid owes my kid an apology!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, they're just little puddin's. I doubt that was on purpose.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Kids don't just do stuff like that! That is some learned behavior! Is that the kind of messed-up stuff you're teaching there at the Star-Runner household?! ''{jumps up and hovers in place}'' Pushin' kids around in the sandbox?! ''{Homestar walks up to the bags as Strong Bad continues to hover}'' Er, where are you going? I didn't... I... ''{falls}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, sorry. I gotta post this. This is just adorable!<br />
<br />
''{He holds up his phone to the bags as Strong Bad kneels next to him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, good call. That ''is'' adorable. ''{smiling}'' Look up here, sweetie! Can you wave?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Everybody say "The Cheat"!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat!<br />
<br />
''{Homestar takes the picture.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{still smiling}'' Still gonna badmouth you online at the preschool forums.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, yeah, totally, totally.<br />
<br />
''{Homestar takes another picture. The "Ponders of Warenting" music plays, with no singers, as it cuts back to Coach Z in the classroom. The sign now shows a large bag of pudding, sticking out its tongue, with a graduation cap, reading "Fully Licensed Rents".}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Well clarss, you did it! You're all fully prepared to have kids!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' But we all kept them alive, so who wins the pistachio pudding?<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Well I do, of course!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' What why? ''{collapses on the desk}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{Pulls up a discolored plastic bag with a dark brown substance in it.}'' I've been keeping little Absorby <!-- DON'T CHANGE THIS! --> <sup><small><span id="footnoteref">[[#Footnote|[1]]]</span></small></sup> <!-- DON'T CHANGE THIS! --> Junior here alive since I was your age! ''{Coach Z nuzzles the bag.}'' Ain't that right, Absorby? <br />
<br />
''{The scene pans to Strong Bad and the other classmates, who all look disgusted and mutter to themselves.}'' <br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{offscreenn}'' Who's daddy's little puddin'? Who's daddy little baby?<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to Coach Z, who taps the bag.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{singing}'' Ba dorn dang dorn dorn dang dang dorn!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{offscreen}'' Truly distasteful.<br />
<br />
''{Scene cuts back to Strong Bad on his computer.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' And so Mike Morkleson, ''{stops typing}'' I-I don't know if that's your last name but you just seemed like a real Morkleson ''{resumes typing}'' thus ended my brief foray into the soirée of fatherhood. I've distilled it all down into ''{types "to" instead}'' 3 main points, so you can remember: ''{clears screen}'' Number one: ''{typed as "1."}'' Babies are totally boring for the first nine months. Give to Grandma. 2. Keep a drawer full of useless keys and TV remotes for some reasons. ''{not typed}'' And number ''{typed}'' 3. That much ballyhooed 'new baby smell' people are always talking about, ''{Strong Bad starts shouting}'' it just smells like crap! Babies just smell like crap! ''{The next line is typed in yellow at an angle}'' You just get used to it!! ''{The next line is typed in orange, slightly larger, at a different angle.}'' Don't let 'em fool you! ''{The next line is typed in red, even larger, and at yet another angle.}'' It's not a good smell! ''{Strong Bad stops typing and raises his fist.}'' BABIES SMELL LIKE CRAAAAAAAP! ''{Strong Bad falls over from his desk.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' ''{The CGI Paper comes down.}'' C-G-eeow!<br />
<br />
''{After a few moments, cut to a fake autoplay of "Top Ten Things You Missed in the Peasant's Quest Trailer", with an image of live-acted Rather Dashing. Then, cut to the SteaKasTle sign.}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' SteaKasTle! ''{The text on the sign moves forward while the sign dims out. The following tagline appears as the singers sing it:}'' "We put two steaks in our name!"<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR:''' One is the word "steak!" ''{The "Steak" in the name is underlined.}'' The other is the letter T. ''{A red arrow points to the T-turned-steak.}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to another fake autoplay of "Why You Should NEVER Say 'Boat Take' in Public", with an image of Strong Sad covering his mouth. Then, cut to a blue screen as "Styles Upon Styles" text bounces in.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR:''' Styles Upon Styles presents:<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar and Strong Bad at the playground, posing together, both in their gray jackets. Both are holding their phones, Homestar is holding his cup of Hot Jones, and both have sunglasses on their heads - Strong Bad's on his forehead, and Homestar's on the back of his head.}'' <br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR:''' The Dads at the Playground collection.<br />
<br />
''{Rapid closeup cuts, followed by a cut to the two characters' silhouettes on opposite sides of the swingset, while "Dads at the Playground" is written at the bottom of the screen. Cut back to the previous scene of the two posing.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I make waffles every Saturday, and leave the kitchen a huge mess.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I talk about coaching lacrosse, and... coaching lacrosse.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to an orange screen. Their gray jackets come into view.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR:''' Vests! ''{sunglasses appear over the jackets}'' Sunglasses! ...That's pretty much it, really. These guys are pretty one-note.<br />
<br />
''{Another fake autoplay shows up, now showing "Homepage Shared Cinematic Universe REVEALED", with images of various home pages in the background. Then, cut to Homestar in front of a microphone.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{mumbling as though imitating a crowd}'' What did he say? I didn't hear! Sounds a little abnormal. He'll rue the day! I don't like that!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Alex Hirsch, talking to Homestar through a video screen.}''<br />
<br />
'''ALEX HIRSCH:''' That was incredible, One-Man Hubbub! Nailed it again! Um, next we got a crowd, uh, fleeing a meteor. ''{Homestar nods}'' If you could sprinkle in a few old ladies.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay.<br />
<br />
'''ALEX HIRSCH:''' Any time you're ready.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Got it. ''{Cut to Homestar as he acts out the role:}'' Watch out! It's coming hither! Oh no, my house! I've gotta keep running in this direction! Look, Maudelaide<!--?-->, it's a twister! I thought he said it was a meteor! Well, either way, book club's been canceled!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the screen, as Alex Hirsch laughs.}''<br />
<br />
'''ALEX HIRSCH:''' Hahahahahaha! That's why you're the One-Man Hubbub! You're crackin' up everybody back here! Uh, next we got a courtroom, maybe scandalized murmur. For added difficulty, throw in a bailiff.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the mic.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I can't believe it's true! Did you hear?! I wonder what that's all about! Well I never! ''{unintelligible mumbling}'' Your honor, did you eat my dirty sammich?<br />

</blockquote><br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad reads "S to the Bad" as "Stothe Bad" and "FL" as "for life".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Don't sweat it, Mike. You're already on the right track by coming to me first. Instead of, ya know, like, your parents or a medical professional or any number of ''{text begins to become smaller as his voice gets quieter}'' non-email checking wrestlemen. ''{clears screen}'' And while I'm no dad meself, I actually do have some expertise on the subject. Turns out we all had to try out some child rearing in one of the nebulous health classes ''{The "health classes" text becomes wavy, distorted and starts to grow. The entire screen dims except the area around those words, while various "spooky" sound effects play. Traffic sounds also play. Eventually, the words and screen return to normal with a "pop" sound effect, and Strong Bad continues}'' that we for some reason allow Coach Z to teach us. <br />
<br />
''{Cut to a panning shot of Marzipan, Homestar and Strong Bad looking questioningly at bags of banana pudding.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' We were all given sammich bags full of banana puddin' to take care of as practice for raisin' a baby.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Coach Z, standing by a sign reading "HEY! A GOOD PERSON" with an arrow pointing at Coach Z himself.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' All right, potential parental units, you all have your R.H.B's, ''{produces his own bag of pudding}'' or as we in the medical field call ‘em: ''{He turns the page on the sign, showing a drawing of a bag of pudding with a face on it labeled:}'' “Real Human Babies”. Now, the next 18 to 35 years o' yer life are gonna revolve around keepin' this thing alive-slash-in a wi-fi hotspot. ''{He turns the page again, showing the pudding with a smartphone with a wi-fi symbol over its head.}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' How is this slopsack anything like a real human baby?<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Coach Z}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Exaca like an R.H.B.! It's small, it's mushy, smells like plastic, and it's fulla yellow goop! And whichever one o' youse keeps theirs alive the longest{{--}}<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the King of Town, who has opened his bag and is slurping up the last of the pudding through a straw.}''<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' And I'm out! ''{leaves}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to Coach Z.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' {{--}}gets a different bag of pistachio puddin' ''{holds up bag of pistachio pudding}'' as a ''re''ward!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar and Strong Bad}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{mumbling, with a different pose for each line as though imitating a whole crowd:}'' Oh, sounds pretty good! Didja hear? Pistachio pudding! Bag of pudding! Have you heard the latest news? Not a bad pudding! Sounds like a pretty sweet deal. Whadja say? I wasn't listening.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad gives Homestar an annoyed expression as crickets chirp for a few seconds.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What? I can be a one-man hubbub.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Coach Z}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Now get out there in that fierld and show me some defense!<br />
<br />
''{A whistle sounds as the scene wipes to Homestar, Marzipan, Strong Bad, Strong Mad, Strong Sad, and The Cheat shuffling around on a football field with Coach Z's silhouette in the foreground.}''<br />
<br />
'''ALL BUT COACH Z:''' ''{indistinct grunts}''<br /><br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' shimmy shimmy...<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Or... I mean... do all the good baby stuff and whatnot.<br />
<br />
''{Silhouettes of the six students appear, break off into pairs, and walk away from each other. A drum beat starts.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And so, we paired off into... er, pairs, and set off to experience the ponders of warenting.<br />
<br />
''{A splash screen with those last four words appears.}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad and The Cheat. The Cheat is holding the corner of the bag of pudding in his mouth. Its seal has come undone, and some of the pudding has dripped down to the floor.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Don't hold it like that! She'll get the droops! You gotta hold it by the corners. Like you would a real baby.<br />
<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{with an upset expression}'' ''{The Cheat noises}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well this ain't no Cheat-pup! Give it here! ''{He takes the bag and holds it up by the corners.}'' There there, pud-wad. Let's just settle down and scoop your brains back in. ''{He kneels down and starts scooping the pudding off the floor and back into the bag.}'' Like you would a real baby.<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, still reading "The Ponders of Warenting".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Sad, who has his bag of pudding sitting on top of some paper towels, with safety pins and a jar of talcum powder nearby.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oookay, gotta change this baby. Let's see... ''{cut to a view from above the bag, looking at Strong Sad}'' Triangle, quarter to tip, tuck down, scrimshaw right, scrimshaw left, and done!<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to show the bag of pudding now sitting in a paper hat. Strong Mad appears, holding an origami crane with banana pudding dripping from it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' I FORGOT TO SCRIMSHAW LEFT!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, still reading "The Ponders of Warenting".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad and The Cheat, walking toward the King of Town, who is behind a host podium at what appears to be a restaurant. A sign above them reads "SteaKasTle", with a piece of steak in place of the "T". Strong Bad is wearing a baby carrier holding both his and The Cheat's pudding bags.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Say there, local proprietor! My coparent ''{indicating The Cheat}'' and I were wondering if this is a family-friendly establishment. <br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' Oh, sure! I've been friendly to families at least a couple of times. Maybe you guys will get lucky! ''{winks while a "splat" sound effect plays}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{recoiling}'' Never wink at me again. ''{turns back to the King}'' Table for two, please, plus a highchair.<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' I've got this '70s high chair. ''{turns around}''<br />
<br />
''{Wipe to a rusty bear trap on chair legs with a rubber duck sitting inside it and cobwebs hanging from it. It shakes for a moment, and the trap snaps shut, severing the duck's head. A bubble appears above it reading "APPROVED BY 70's PEDIATRICIANS".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooooh, uh, ''{cut back to the three characters}'' maybe I'll just put her in my lap. You got a kids menu?<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' I've got this '70s kids menu.<br />
<br />
''{He produces a menu, which we then see in closeup. The top of the menu reads "SteaKasTle Kids' menu". On the left is a picture of a steak, labeled "Steak (Market Price)". Next to it is an "Activity Maze!", which is an empty rectangle with right-pointing arrows at the left ("start") and right ("end") labeled "Help the Steak get to the Cigar for smooth enjoyment! On the right is a lit cigar labeled "Cigars (Vincent Price)".}''<br />
<br />
'''LADY:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh, Barbara, what a riot!<br />
<br />
''{A bubble appears over the menu reading "APPROVED BY 70'S MOMS".}''<br />
<br />
'''LADY:''' ''{voiceover}'' Let's order one for the kids! I'll eat their cigars if they don't finish.<br />
<br />
''{The bubble's text changes to "SHUT UP, LADY!" Cut back to the characters, with Strong Bad looking extremely annoyed.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Do I even wanna know the condition of your '70s bathroom?<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' It's more like ''seventeen''-seventies bathroom. ''{turns around}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a hole in the ground near the King's castle with bricks around it, a sign reading "the privy, prithee", and a roll of toilet paper reading "strides of great progreff" and "progreffo soup". The Poopsmith leans out from behind the castle, giving the thumbs up, and then smirks. Cut back to Strong Bad, The Cheat, and the King.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{recoiling again}'' Gah! Unexpected Poopsmirk! That's it, we're going to a real family restaurant! ''{He and The Cheat turn to leave, and then both abruptly stop as Strong Bad turns around to say:}'' Like the micro-brewery! ''{They continue, then stop again.}'' Or a craft distillery! ''{They continue, then stop again.}'' Or that vape shop that also sells hot fries!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, still reading "The Ponders of Warenting".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar and Marzipan in Marzipan's kitchen. Homestar is wearing goggles and has a clothespin on his chin. A bag of pudding is on the counter, with a potted plant nearby.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' It's also important that we never water the plants in front of her. ''{He pushes the plant away from the bag.}'' Babies have inverse agricultural tendencies when they're this young. "Inverse" means "opposite", Marzipan, so she might grow up thinking you should ''never'' water plants! And that's just wrong. Just plain old dang old wrong. You have to water plants, Marzipan. With sunlight.<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{looming over Homestar more and more with each word, but constantly smiling and in a friendly voice}'' You have no idea what you're talking about, and I disagree with everything that comes out of your mouth, you lump of underbitten cluelessness.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{incredibly confused}'' Um, are you okay? It's like mean-say Marzipan's brain is coming out of nice-say Marzipan's face!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{stepping back from Homestar}'' Babies understand tone and body language. So it's very important that she doesn't know how much we hate each other until she's in college.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oooohh! Mean-say mean-say!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, now reading "The Donders of Warranty".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The donders of warranty!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a tablet, showing a screen with a diaper with a face and reading "SCREENBY SITTER". A bag of pudding is taped to it. The diaper on the tablet hovers around and speaks.}''<br />
<br />
'''SCREENBY SITTER:''' Eh-heh-heh-heh! You're doing great! Your parents are busy!<br />
<br />
''{Strong Sad's hand appears and picks up the tablet.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Strong Mad!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the door of Strong Mad's room. Strong Mad's silhouette is in the foreground, while Strong Sad holds the tablet and bag.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Did you tape the baby to a tablet so you could play video games on a different tablet for six hours?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' A DIFFERENT MORE EXPENSIVE TABLET!<br />
<br />
''{The screen pans over and Strong Mad comes into focus. He holds up a larger tablet than the first, which has "CLAPPING PARTY MOBILE!" playing on it. The tablet shines and the word "PRO" emanates from it.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR:''' Pro!<br />
<br />
'''SCREENBY SITTER:''' Eh-heh-heh-heh! Don't turn me off! I can teach you about... ''{considers for a moment}'' screens!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, now reading "The Jodhpurs of Clarencing".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The jodhpurs of clarencing!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar, wearing a gray jacket, holding a cup of Hot Jones, and staring at a smartphone. Behind him is a swing set in a sandbox. One bag of pudding is sitting in a swing, while another sits nearby with a toy shovel planted in the ground next to it.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What's that, sweetie? Daddy's working! ''{drinks some Jones}'' Uh huh, I see! That's great, sweetie! That's... some real... development... right there, that's... fine motor. Mommydaddy's so proud of you!<br />
<br />
''{The bag in the swing falls out of it, bumping into the other bag.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oopsie! Did someone have a fall-down-badoopsie?<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad suddenly runs up.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey! Your kid owes my kid an apology!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, they're just little puddin's. I doubt that was on purpose.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Kids don't just do stuff like that! That is some learned behavior! Is that the kind of messed-up stuff you're teaching there at the Star-Runner household?! ''{jumps up and hovers in place}'' Pushin' kids around in the sandbox?! ''{Homestar walks up to the bags as Strong Bad continues to hover}'' Er, where are you going? I didn't... I... ''{falls}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, sorry. I gotta post this. This is just adorable!<br />
<br />
''{He holds up his phone to the bags as Strong Bad kneels next to him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, good call. That ''is'' adorable. ''{smiling}'' Look up here, sweetie! Can you wave?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Everybody say "The Cheat"!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat!<br />
<br />
''{Homestar takes the picture.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{still smiling}'' Still gonna badmouth you online at the preschool forums.<br />
<br />

I've distilled it all down to 3 main points, so you can remember: Number one - Babies are totally boring for the first nine months. Give to Grandma. Number two - Keep a drawer full of useless keys and TV remotes for some reasons. And Number 3 - That much ballyhooed 'new baby small' people are always talking about, {Strong Bad starts shouting} it just smells like crap! Babies just smell like crap! {Strong Bad starts to type in yellow, orange and red for the next three sentences, they all aligned improperly with the rest of the text}. You just get used to it!! Don't let 'em fool you! It's not a good smell! ''{Strong Bad stops typing and raises his fist.}'' BABIES SMELL LIKE CRAAAAAAAP! ''{Strong Bad falls over from his desk.}''<br />

<br />
''{Strong Bad reads "S to the Bad" as "Stothe Bad" and "FL" as "for life".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Don't sweat it, Mike. You're already on the right track by coming to me first. Instead of, ya know, like, your parents or a medical professional or any number of ''{text begins to become smaller as his voice gets quieter}'' non-email checking wrestlemen. ''{clears screen}'' And while I'm no dad meself, I actually do have some expertise on the subject. Turns out we all had to try out some child rearing in one of the nebulous health classes ''{The "health classes" text becomes wavy, distorted and starts to grow. The entire screen dims except the area around those words, while various "spooky" sound effects play. Traffic sounds also play. Eventually, the words and screen return to normal with a "pop" sound effect, and Strong Bad continues}'' that we for some reason allow Coach Z to teach us. <br />
<br />
''{Cut to a panning shot of Marzipan, Homestar and Strong Bad looking questioningly at bags of banana pudding.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' We were all given sammich bags full of banana puddin' to take care of as practice for raisin' a baby.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Coach Z, standing by a sign reading "HEY! A GOOD PERSON" with an arrow pointing at Coach Z himself.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' All right, potential parental units, you all have your R.H.B's, ''{produces his own bag of pudding}'' or as we in the medical field call ‘em: ''{He turns the page on the sign, showing a drawing of a bag of pudding with a face on it labeled:}'' “Real Human Babies”. Now, the next 18 to 35 years o' yer life are gonna revolve around keepin' this thing alive-slash-in a wi-fi hotspot. ''{He turns the page again, showing the pudding with a smartphone with a wi-fi symbol over its head.}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' How is this slopsack anything like a real human baby?<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Coach Z}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Exaca like an R.H.B.! It's small, it's mushy, smells like plastic, and it's fulla yellow goop! And whichever one o' youse keeps theirs alive the longest{{--}}<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the King of Town, who has opened his bag and is slurping up the last of the pudding through a straw.}''<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' And I'm out! ''{leaves}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to Coach Z.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' {{--}}gets a different bag of pistachio puddin' ''{holds up bag of pistachio pudding}'' as a ''re''ward!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar and Strong Bad}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{mumbling, with a different pose for each line as though imitating a whole crowd:}'' Oh, sounds pretty good! Didja hear? Pistachio pudding! Bag of pudding! Have you heard the latest news? Not a bad pudding! Sounds like a pretty sweet deal. Whadja say? I wasn't listening.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad gives Homestar an annoyed expression as crickets chirp for a few seconds.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What? I can be a one-man hubbub.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Coach Z}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Now get out there in that fierld and show me some defense!<br />
<br />
''{A whistle sounds as the scene wipes to Homestar, Marzipan, Strong Bad, Strong Mad, Strong Sad, and The Cheat shuffling around on a football field with Coach Z's silhouette in the foreground.}''<br />
<br />
'''ALL BUT COACH Z:''' ''{indistinct grunts}''<br /><br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' shimmy shimmy...<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Or... I mean... do all the good baby stuff and whatnot.<br />
<br />
''{Silhouettes of the six students appear, break off into pairs, and walk away from each other. A drum beat starts.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And so, we paired off into... er, pairs, and set off to experience the ponders of warenting.<br />
<br />
''{A splash screen with those last four words appears.}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad and The Cheat. The Cheat is holding the corner of the bag of pudding in his mouth. Its seal has come undone, and some of the pudding has dripped down to the floor.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Don't hold it like that! She'll get the droops! You gotta hold it by the corners. Like you would a real baby.<br />
<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{with an upset expression}'' ''{The Cheat noises}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well this ain't no Cheat-pup! Give it here! ''{He takes the bag and holds it up by the corners.}'' There there, pud-wad. Let's just settle down and scoop your brains back in. ''{He kneels down and starts scooping the pudding off the floor and back into the bag.}'' Like you would a real baby.<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, still reading "The Ponders of Warenting".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Sad, who has his bag of pudding sitting on top of some paper towels, with safety pins and a jar of talcum powder nearby.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oookay, gotta change this baby. Let's see... ''{cut to a view from above the bag, looking at Strong Sad}'' Triangle, quarter to tip, tuck down, scrimshaw right, scrimshaw left, and done!<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to show the bag of pudding now sitting in a paper hat. Strong Mad appears, holding an origami crane with banana pudding dripping from it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' I FORGOT TO SCRIMSHAW LEFT!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, still reading "The Ponders of Warenting".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad and The Cheat, walking toward the King of Town, who is behind a host podium at what appears to be a restaurant. A sign above them reads "SteaKasTle", with a piece of steak in place of the "T". Strong Bad is wearing a baby carrier holding both his and The Cheat's pudding bags.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Say there, local proprietor! My coparent ''{indicating The Cheat}'' and I were wondering if this is a family-friendly establishment. <br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' Oh, sure! I've been friendly to families at least a couple of times. Maybe you guys will get lucky! ''{winks while a "splat" sound effect plays}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{recoiling}'' Never wink at me again. ''{turns back to the King}'' Table for two, please, plus a highchair.<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' I've got this '70s high chair. ''{turns around}''<br />
<br />
''{Wipe to a rusty bear trap on chair legs with a rubber duck sitting inside it and cobwebs hanging from it. It shakes for a moment, and the trap snaps shut, severing the duck's head. A bubble appears above it reading "APPROVED BY 70's PEDIATRICIANS".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooooh, uh, ''{cut back to the three characters}'' maybe I'll just put her in my lap. You got a kids menu?<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' I've got this '70s kids menu.<br />
<br />
''{He produces a menu, which we then see in closeup. The top of the menu reads "SteaKasTle Kids' menu". On the left is a picture of a steak, labeled "Steak (Market Price)". Next to it is an "Activity Maze!", which is an empty rectangle with right-pointing arrows at the left ("start") and right ("end") labeled "Help the Steak get to the Cigar for smooth enjoyment! On the right is a lit cigar labeled "Cigars (Vincent Price)".}''<br />
<br />
'''LADY:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh, Barbara, what a riot!<br />
<br />
''{A bubble appears over the menu reading "APPROVED BY 70'S MOMS".}''<br />
<br />
'''LADY:''' ''{voiceover}'' Let's order one for the kids! I'll eat their cigars if they don't finish.<br />
<br />
''{The bubble's text changes to "SHUT UP, LADY!" Cut back to the characters, with Strong Bad looking extremely annoyed.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Do I even wanna know the condition of your '70s bathroom?<br />
<br />
'''KING OF TOWN:''' It's more like ''seventeen''-seventies bathroom. ''{turns around}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a hole in the ground near the King's castle with bricks around it, a sign reading "the privy, prithee", and a roll of toilet paper reading "strides of great progreff" and "progreffo soup". The Poopsmith leans out from behind the castle, giving the thumbs up, and then smirks. Cut back to Strong Bad, The Cheat, and the King.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{recoiling again}'' Gah! Unexpected Poopsmirk! That's it, we're going to a real family restaurant! ''{He and The Cheat turn to leave, and then both abruptly stop as Strong Bad turns around to say:}'' Like the micro-brewery! ''{They continue, then stop again.}'' Or a craft distillery! ''{They continue, then stop again.}'' Or that vape shop that also sells hot fries!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, still reading "The Ponders of Warenting".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The ponders of warenting!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar and Marzipan in Marzipan's kitchen. Homestar is wearing goggles and has a clothespin on his chin. A bag of pudding is on the counter, with a potted plant nearby.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' It's also important that we never water the plants in front of her. ''{He pushes the plant away from the bag.}'' Babies have inverse agricultural tendencies when they're this young. "Inverse" means "opposite", Marzipan, so she might grow up thinking you should ''never'' water plants! And that's just wrong. Just plain old dang old wrong. You have to water plants, Marzipan. With sunlight.<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{looming over Homestar more and more with each word, but constantly smiling and in a friendly voice}'' You have no idea what you're talking about, and I disagree with everything that comes out of your mouth, you lump of underbitten cluelessness.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{incredibly confused}'' Um, are you okay? It's like mean-say Marzipan's brain is coming out of nice-say Marzipan's face!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{stepping back from Homestar}'' Babies understand tone and body language. So it's very important that she doesn't know how much we hate each other until she's in college.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oooohh! Mean-say mean-say!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, now reading "The Donders of Warranty".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The donders of warranty!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a tablet, showing a screen with a diaper with a face and reading "SCREENBY SITTER". A bag of pudding is taped to it. The diaper on the tablet hovers around and speaks.}''<br />
<br />
'''SCREENBY SITTER:''' Eh-heh-heh-heh! You're doing great! Your parents are busy!<br />
<br />
''{Strong Sad's hand appears and picks up the tablet.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Strong Mad!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the door of Strong Mad's room. Strong Mad's silhouette is in the foreground, while Strong Sad holds the tablet and bag.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Did you tape the baby to a tablet so you could play video games on a different tablet for six hours?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' A DIFFERENT MORE EXPENSIVE TABLET!<br />
<br />
''{The screen pans over and Strong Mad comes into focus. He holds up a larger tablet than the first, which has "CLAPPING PARTY MOBILE!" playing on it. The tablet shines and the word "PRO" emanates from it.}''<br />
<br />
'''NARRATOR:''' Pro!<br />
<br />
'''SCREENBY SITTER:''' Eh-heh-heh-heh! Don't turn me off! I can teach you about... ''{considers for a moment}'' screens!<br />
<br />
''{The splash screen returns, now reading "The Jodhpurs of Clarencing".}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' The jodhpurs of clarencing!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Homestar, wearing a gray jacket, holding a cup of Hot Jones, and staring at a smartphone. Behind him is a swing set in a sandbox. One bag of pudding is sitting in a swing, while another sits nearby with a toy shovel planted in the ground next to it.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What's that, sweetie? Daddy's working! ''{drinks some Jones}'' Uh huh, I see! That's great, sweetie! That's... some real... development... right there, that's... fine motor. Mommydaddy's so proud of you!<br />
<br />
''{The bag in the swing falls out of it, bumping into the other bag.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oopsie! Did someone have a fall-down-badoopsie?<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad suddenly runs up.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey! Your kid owes my kid an apology!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, they're just little puddin's. I doubt that was on purpose.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Kids don't just do stuff like that! That is some learned behavior! Is that the kind of messed-up stuff you're teaching there at the Star-Runner household?! ''{jumps up and hovers in place}'' Pushin' kids around in the sandbox?! ''{Homestar walks up to the bags as Strong Bad continues to hover}'' Er, where are you going? I didn't... I... ''{falls}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, sorry. I gotta post this. This is just adorable!<br />
<br />
''{He holds up his phone to the bags as Strong Bad kneels next to him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, good call. That ''is'' adorable. ''{smiling}'' Look up here, sweetie! Can you wave?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Everybody say "The Cheat"!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat!<br />
<br />
''{Homestar takes the picture.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{still smiling}'' Still gonna badmouth you online at the preschool forums.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, yeah, totally, totally.<br />
<br />
''{Homestar takes another picture. The "Ponders of Warenting" music plays, with no singers, as it cuts back to Coach Z in the classroom. The sign now shows a large bag of pudding, sticking out its tongue, with a graduation cap, reading "Fully Licensed Rents".}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{Pulls up an old plastics bag with a brown substance in it.}'' I've been keeping little Absorby Junior here alive since I was your age! ''{Coach Z rubs his cheek on the bag.}'' Ain't that right Absorby? ''{The scene pans to Strong Bad and the other classmates, who all look disgusted and mutter.}'' Who's daddy's little pudding? Who's daddy little baby? ''{The scene cuts back to Coach Z as he fondles with the bag.}'' Ba dorn dang dorn dorn dang dang dorn!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Really distasteful.<br />
<br />
''{Scene cuts back to Strong Bad on his computer.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Typing}'' And so Mike Morkleson, ''{Stops typing}'' I-I don't know if that's your last name but you just seemed like a real Morkulson ''{Resumes typing}'' thus ended my brief foray into the soirée of fatherhood. I've distilled it all down to 3 main points, so you can remember: Number one - Babies are totally boring for the first nine months. Give to Grandma. Number two - Keep a drawer full of useless keys and TV remotes for some reasons. And Number 3 - That much ballyhooed 'new baby small' people are always talking about, {Strong Bad starts shouting} it just smells like crap! Babies just smell like crap! {Strong Bad starts to type in yellow, orange and red for the next three sentences, they all aligned improperly with the rest of the text}. You just get used to it!!

<br />
''{The screen fades to white as the box for Trogdor!! The Board Game appears.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' OK, let's set up the table ''{A red banner labeled "SETUP" drops down on the screen.}'' for a rousing round of Trogdor!! The Board Game.<br />
<br />
''{Scene cuts to a Matt setting up the board game by placing the tiles on the table. The footage is sped up as Strong Bad continues to narrate.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The game board is made up of a 5x5 grid of map tiles, forming the peasant kingdom of Peasantry.<br />
<br />
''{An image of "Map Examples" appears on the left side of the screen, with a yellow circle flashing over the image second bottom right image of the map layout. It disappears a few moment later}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Here we're using one of the map examples from the back of the rulebook, but feel free to create your own. Now place the cottage on each of the tree cottage tiles with the roof unburninated side up. Now we place one peasant at each of those the cottages, then the knights, the archer and finally Trogdor himself!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Above the map, place the Trog-Meter, which serves as Trogdor's health. Prop the flame helmet, the Troghammer and the remaining four peasants in position a-like so. Put the void card above here, which is where peasants go when they die and the movement deck on top, which controls the countrysides movements as they fight back against Trogdor. And last, place the action deck over here after first removing all the TrogHammer cards and setting them aside.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Now we're ready to play!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' So, what's the objective of this game Mike?<br />
<br />
'''Mike:''' Well, are you familiar with the Trogdor song?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I wrote the thang did!<br />
<br />
'''Mike:''' Well we have to do the three things in the chorus of that song. We have to burninate the countryside by flipping over the- all 25 of these countryside tiles to their burninated state like this.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Double-sided!<br />
<br />
'''Mike:''' Yeah. {Speaks a bit quieter and wags his finger around the previous tile he flipped over} Look, fire.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I get excited!<br />
<br />
'''Mike:''' Charred.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' When it's double sided!<br />
<br />
'''Mike:''' {Resumes back to his normal speaking voice} And then, we also have to burninate...<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' The peasants!<br />

'''Page Title:''' Dress em' up Dan!<br />
<br />
==Transcript==<br />
''{As usual, the toon starts in the basement of the Brothers Strong; the light dims and the projector screen comes down. The first image displayed is a bald man wearing make up to resembles Strong Bad's mask. Two keyboards can be seen behind him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing in the tune of [[The System is down (song)|The System is Down]]. Every time he says "bald", the image is mirrored.}'' The system is bald! The system is bald! The system is bald! Bald, bald, bald, bald! ''{The image is covered with some rave effects and the image randomly reversed or flipped upside down.}'' DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE!<br />
<br />
{The next image shows a guy in a The Cheat hoodie kneeling down. A glow stick appears and spins in front of him.}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{resumes singing and mimics a techno beat mimics.}'' Doom doom doom doom. The system is bald! ''{The picture of the guy in the Strong Bad makeup appears again. The image then spins around.}'' Dah dah doh-la dah dah!<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows up with the same man as before, holding a glass next to a man dressed as Ned Flanders. A little piano ditty plays.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing to a different tune.}'' Now go have a Cold One with Ned Flanders!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a giant Homestar costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Impressive Homestar costume! I see you made him with his rectangle mouth, which I like to call 'Cartridge Mouth Homestar'! I'm always just tempted to shove a VHS tape ''{as Strong Bad lists the examples, the item gets inserted and pressed down into Homestar's mouth}'' or a dusty old musty Game Pak right in there!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I found that SHMUPs taste best! You know, like Xeliogravius... IV? ''{the box for Videlectrix game Xeliogravius IV drops down, showing a ship fighting a green alien. On it is a caption that says "Not a total rip-off!"}'' It's a good game.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a man dressed up as Coach Z.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, there's actually some pretty good {the next slide shows another person dressed as the aforementioned character} looking Coach Z costumes this year! You guys are really&mdash; ''{the next slide appears}'' Oh, the pain! ''{the next slide appears}'' Oh, the mercy! All right, you guys! I'm calling it! I don't want to see anybody wearing these skin tight green jobs next year!<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Okay, you asked for it! ''{Coach Z hums to himself as some rustling can be heard, accompanied by squishing noises.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah! I was talking about the fans! And what did I tell you about humming those saucy "getting undressed" songs?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' INA-PRO-PRO!<br />
<br />
''{The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the screen, accompanied with a buzzer noise. The next image shows a man dressed up as Senor Cardgage holding a bag. The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the image again.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh my dear yes! {The "INA-PRO-PRO stamp fades away".} Gonna have to get analogous on this one.<br />
<br />
''{An analysis sheet is pulled up. The top is written "ANALOGY WORKSHEET - Unit 1 - Cardgage" with the bottom written "this guy: cardgage:: cardgage: strong bad". A sketch of the person wearing the costume appears.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' This guy's costume is to {a sketch of Senor Cardgage appears} Cardgage, as Cardgage {the aforementioned sketch appears, but it mirrored} is to {a sketch of Strong Bad appears} Strong Bad. ''{The sheet moves out of view.}'' He's like a Cardgage among Cardgages. He's like Cardgage squared! Aww, and look! ''{zooms in on the bag of a take out bag of Chick-fil-A lying on the ground}'' Somebody finally took him to ''{imitates Cardgage}'' Chick-fil-A.<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows a guy dressed as D n'D Greg and a woman dressed as What's Her Face.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, that's a dead-on D n'D Greg and What's Her Face, and your wall even dressed up as D n'D Greg's front hallway!<br />
<br />
''{Speech bubbles for D n'D Greg and What's Her Face appear}''<br />
<br />
'''D N'D GREG:''' The KROKUS banner on my front porch drew her near... and this Slayer poster in my hallway won her heart.<br />
<br />
'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Uhh... I like pavement.<br />
<br />
{The next image shows another giant Homestar costume standing in front of a closed door.}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' B-WHOA-HO-HO! If I came out the bathroom and saw that thing standing in the hallway, I'd call in the SWAT flamethrower strike team. ''{Mimics a caller.}'' Uh, yes, officer, there's a seven-foot-tall Homestar Runner with saggy ankles standing in my s-st-stounch! ''{laughs over his next few lines}'' That's what we call the area between the bathroom and the laundry room. The stounch. Come and get him. In my stounch.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide scrolls down with "Pree-ow" playing. A guy has The Paper taped on his face and is standing behind a computer monitor with a Tandy 400 background reading "a> Pretend this computer is 30 years old." The next slide shows a guy dressed as David Byrne and a woman dressed as The Log Lady. They are sitting on a table with candles and a picture of a plant on it, while the guy holds his hands up and his eyes closed.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' So wait, you didn't actually dress up as Strong Sad or Marzipan, you dressed up as the ''{a still showing Strong Sad and Marzipan from [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] appear on the bottom right}'' people they dressed up as one time, and then painstakingly ''{the images move up to the slide, scales to match the propositions and becomes translucent}'' recreated the scene in which they appeared. Well, that sounds exactly like the kinda nerdy thing those two losers would be into anyways. ''{The comparison fades away.}'' So good job.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a person dressed up as motion-capture Strong Bad from [[Sample of Style Too]].}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Nothing like dressing up as an obscure Internet cartoon's even more obscure DVD bonus feature. ''{An image of motion-capture Strong Bad appears on the left side.}'' Mo-Cap Strong Bad, more like "Mowed-Down Strong Bad"! ''{Bubs's baloney truck runs into the picture of Mo-Cap Strong Bad and knocks it out of view.}'' 'Cause it's a very&mdash; there's a lot of black in the costume. Might be hard to see.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a guy wearing a giant light brown pillow over his head, making it resemble a bean. He's sitting on a chair with a travel case next to him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Finally, Large Bean's getting the respect he deserves!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows the same character with a cardboard bean on the person's face. The background is dark and blurred.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey! No fair blurring out the rest of your living room! How am I supposed to make fun of your family's terrible taste in decor?<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a boy in a Homsar costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' AaAaAaAaA! I'm a tall kitty in a pumpkin bag! ''{zooms in the kitty dressed decor in the background.}'' Or, ''{zooms back out}'' don't froth up, ''{zooms in on the unplugged appliance in the background}'' I unplugged the papasan! Man! Middle America's houses ''{zooms back out}'' are rife with Homsar quotes!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a guy dressed as Old-Timey Strong Bad sitting on the steps next to a sign. The image is in a sepia tone.}''<br />
<br />
'''OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD:''' Yes, feast your depression-era eyes on Strong Bad's Flavor Taste ''{zooms in on the sign}'' Tricks and Treats! {A logo of a spoon holding a white powder slide in from the top right} A spoonful of bakinged soda one could mistake for sugar and some molasses {a bottle of molasses slides in the bottom left with a dead goat on it. On it has the words "premulum" on it} bequeathed to me by a goat, upon its untimely demise! ''{zooms back out}'' Strong Bad is your number one candym'n!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows someone wearing a Coach Z costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys.<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows someone wearing a Senor Cardgage costume with some animals strapped on his knees, with a similar background and image quality.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows both images, with Senor Cardgage on the left and Coach Z on the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys!! These are good costumes. These are ''great'' costumes! But why, in the year of our King of Town 2017, when everyone has a 12-jillion gregapixel camera in their pocket, ''{close-up of the Senor Cardgage costume's mask}'' do you send me pictures that look like they were taken on your... ''{a pink flip-phone with "Sweet Digits" written on it slides to the center of the screen}'' grandma's candy flip-phone that you don't have the heart to tell her ''{the phone opens, revealing a cartoony winking face on the screen, and a hole filled with colored balls below the buttons, with some spilling out of the phone.}'' it's not a real phone?! ''{grandma voice}'' But I had ''such'' good conversations with Little Protelzo! ''{normal voice}'' That's her&mdash; that's her grandson. Little Protelzo.<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows one person dressed as il Cartographer, with a flag and map to the restroom, and a person dressed as Gardenboy beside him, with a rake and watering can, and a Kick The Cheat toy designed to look like Mr. Cheatayama, all against a wall with some sheets taped to it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, this costume thing is not a contest. But you guys... win the costume contest! ''{an instrumental version of the il Cartographer theme plays as an image of il Cartographer, Gardenboy, and Mr. Cheatayama in the wrestling ring appears in the corner, with the character in the same positions as the costumes}'' It's all here! Il Cartographer's ''{close-up of the il Cartographer costume's mask}'' floppy hat! ''{close-up of the flag}'' And flag! ''{close-up of his map to the restroom}'' And maps to the restroom! The insidious ''{close-up of Mr. Cheatayama}'' Mr. Cheatayama with his trademark whisk! ''{cut to the entire picture; the image in the corner disappears}'' And you even took the picture in front of a depressing basement wall with some sheets taped to it! That was an actual venue we used to wrestle in! ''{the music stops}'' That's where il Cartographer finally won... ''{A wrestling belt, with a gold waffle design in the middle, zooms in from the center of the screen. There is a carton, melting butter, and a muffin on the waffle design, with the words "Continental Breakfast Champion" written at the top and bottom. The AWMPSCE logo is on both of the sides. The music continues.}'' the Continental Breakfast title belt!<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''LEAD SINGER:''' He won the title match!<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''LEAD SINGER:''' He took-a no crap!<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''LEAD SINGER:''' He's gonna draw another map!<br />
<br />
''{A brown map flies in from the left side of the screen to the middle. There is a compass pointing north in the bottom-left corner. There is a road that goes past Carrot and Kazoo Hill (labeled "CK Hill") and The Stick (unlabeled) to an X near Bubs' Concession Stand, with an arrow pointing to it, with red text reading "here be savings". There is a Yello Dello (labeled "yello-dello") just past the stand. In the bottom right-corner, there is a Bubs head wearing a hat.}''<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' He's the il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I claim-a this belt in the name of Bubsmfort Inn & Suites! Home of the free continental breakfast! ''{quickly, quietly}'' Located just past Carrot-Kazoo Hill, one mile south of the Yello Dello.<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' ''{a speech bubble appears from the Bubs head on the map, as Bubs reads it:}'' Make yourself Bubsmfortable!<br />

<br />
==Transcript==<br />
''{As usual, the toon starts in the basement of the Brothers Strong; the light dims and the projector screen comes down. The first image displayed is a bald man wearing make up to resembles Strong Bad's mask. Two keyboards can be seen behind him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing in the tune of [[The System is down (song)|The System is Down]]. Every time he says "bald", the image is mirrored.}'' The system is bald! The system is bald! The system is bald! Bald, bald, bald, bald! ''{The image is covered with some rave effects and the image randomly reversed or flipped upside down.}'' DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE!<br />
<br />
{The next image shows a guy in a The Cheat hoodie kneeling down. A glow stick appears and spins in front of him.}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{resumes singing and mimics a techno beat mimics.}'' Doom doom doom doom. The system is bald! ''{The picture of the guy in the Strong Bad makeup appears again. The image then spins around.}'' Dah dah doh-la dah dah!<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows up with the same man as before, holding a glass next to a man dressed as Ned Flanders. A little piano ditty plays.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing to a different tune.}'' Now go have a Cold One with Ned Flanders!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a giant Homestar costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Impressive Homestar costume! I see you made him with his rectangle mouth, which I like to call 'Cartridge Mouth Homestar'! I'm always just tempted to shove a VHS tape ''{as Strong Bad lists the examples, the item gets inserted and pressed down into Homestar's mouth}'' or a dusty old musty Game Pak right in there!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I found that SHMUPs taste best! You know, like Xeliogravius... IV? ''{the box for Videlectrix game Xeliogravius IV drops down, showing a ship fighting a green alien. On it is a caption that says "Not a total rip-off!"}'' It's a good game.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a man dressed up as Coach Z.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, there's actually some pretty good {the next slide shows another person dressed as the aforementioned character} looking Coach Z costumes this year! You guys are really&mdash; ''{the next slide appears}'' Oh, the pain! ''{the next slide appears}'' Oh, the mercy! All right, you guys! I'm calling it! I don't want to see anybody wearing these skin tight green jobs next year!<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Okay, you asked for it! ''{Coach Z hums to himself as some rustling can be heard, accompanied by squishing noises.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah! I was talking about the fans! And what did I tell you about humming those saucy "getting undressed" songs?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' INA-PRO-PRO!<br />
<br />
''{The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the screen, accompanied with a buzzer noise. The next image shows a man dressed up as Senor Cardgage holding a bag. The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the image again, then fades away.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh my dear yes! Gonna have to get analogous on this one.<br />
<br />
''{An analysis sheet is pulled up. The top is written "ANALOGY WORKSHEET - Unit 1 - Cardgage" with the bottom written "this guy: cardgage:: cardgage: strong bad". A sketch of the person wearing the costume appears.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' This guy's costume is to {a sketch of Senor Cardgage appears} Cardgage, as Cardgage {the aforementioned sketch appears, but it mirrored} is to {a sketch of Strong Bad appears} Strong Bad. ''{The sheet moves out of view.}'' He's like a Cardgage among Cardgages. He's like Cardgage squared! Aww, and look! ''{zooms in on the bag of a take out bag of Chick-fil-A lying on the ground}'' Somebody finally took him to ''{imitates Cardgage}'' Chick-fil-A.<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows a guy dressed as D n'D Greg and a woman dressed as What's Her Face.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, that's a dead-on D n'D Greg and What's Her Face, and your wall even dressed up as D n'D Greg's front hallway!<br />
<br />
''{Speech bubbles for D n'D Greg and What's Her Face appear}''<br />
<br />
'''D N'D GREG:''' The KROKUS banner on my front porch drew her near... and this Slayer poster in my hallway won her heart.<br />
<br />
'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Uhh... I like pavement.<br />
<br />
{The next image shows another giant Homestar costume standing in front of a closed door.}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' B-WHOA-HO-HO! If I came out the bathroom and saw that thing standing in the hallway, I'd call in the SWAT flamethrower strike team. ''{Mimics a caller.}'' Uh, yes, officer, there's a seven-foot-tall Homestar Runner with saggy ankles standing in my s-st-stounch! ''{laughs over his next few lines}'' That's what we call the area between the bathroom and the laundry room. The stounch. Come and get him. In my stounch.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide scrolls down with "Pree-ow" playing. A guy has The Paper taped on his face and is standing behind a computer monitor with a Tandy 400 background reading "a> Pretend this computer is 30 years old." The next slide shows a guy dressed as David Byrne and a woman dressed as The Log Lady. They are sitting on a table with candles and a picture of a plant on it, while the guy holds his hands up and his eyes closed.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' So wait, you didn't actually dress up as Strong Sad or Marzipan, you dressed up as the ''{a still showing Strong Sad and Marzipan from [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] appear on the bottom right}'' people they dressed up as one time, and then painstakingly ''{the images move up to the slide, scales to match the propositions and becomes translucent}'' recreated the scene in which they appeared. Well, that sounds exactly like the kinda nerdy thing those two losers would be into anyways. ''{The comparison fades away.}'' So good job.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a person dressed up as motion-capture Strong Bad from [[Sample of Style Too]].}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Nothing like dressing up as an obscure Internet cartoon's even more obscure DVD bonus feature. ''{An image of motion-capture Strong Bad appears on the left side.}'' Mo-Cap Strong Bad, more like "Mowed-Down Strong Bad"! ''{Bubs's baloney truck runs into the picture of Mo-Cap Strong Bad and knocks it out of view.}'' 'Cause it's a very&mdash; there's a lot of black in the costume. Might be hard to see.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a guy wearing a giant light brown pillow over his head, making it resemble a bean. He's sitting on a chair with a travel case next to him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Finally, Large Bean's getting the respect he deserves!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows the same character with a cardboard bean on the person's face. The background is dark and blurred.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey! No fair blurring out the rest of your living room! How am I supposed to make fun of your family's terrible taste in decor?<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a boy in a Homsar costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' AaAaAaAaA! I'm a tall kitty in a pumpkin bag! ''{zooms in the kitty dressed decor in the background.}'' Or, ''{zooms back out}'' don't froth up, ''{zooms in on the unplugged appliance in the background}'' I unplugged the papasan! Man! Middle America's houses ''{zooms back out}'' are rife with Homsar quotes!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a guy dressed as Old-Timey Strong Bad sitting on the steps next to a sign. The image is in a sepia tone.}''<br />
<br />
'''OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD:''' Yes, feast your depression-era eyes on Strong Bad's Flavor Taste ''{zooms in on the sign}'' Tricks and Treats! {A logo of a spoon holding a white powder slide in from the top right} A spoonful of bakinged soda one could mistake for sugar and some molasses {a bottle of molasses slides in the bottom left with a dead goat on it. On it has the words "premulum" on it} bequeathed to me by a goat, upon its untimely demise! ''{zooms back out}'' Strong Bad is your number one candym'n!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows someone wearing a Coach Z costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys.<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows someone wearing a Senor Cardgage costume with some animals strapped on his knees, with a similar background and image quality.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows both images, with Senor Cardgage on the left and Coach Z on the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys!! These are good costumes. These are ''great'' costumes! But why, in the year of our King of Town 2017, when everyone has a 12-jillion gregapixel camera in their pocket, ''{close-up of the Senor Cardgage costume's mask}'' do you send me pictures that look like they were taken on your... ''{a pink flip-phone with "Sweet Digits" written on it slides to the center of the screen}'' grandma's candy flip-phone that you don't have the heart to tell her ''{the phone opens, revealing a cartoony winking face on the screen, and a hole filled with colored balls below the buttons, with some spilling out of the phone.}'' it's not a real phone?! ''{grandma voice}'' But I had ''such'' good conversations with Little Protelzo! ''{normal voice}'' That's her&mdash; that's her grandson. Little Protelzo.<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows one person dressed as il Cartographer, with a flag and map to the restroom, and a person dressed as Gardenboy beside him, with a rake and watering can, and a Kick The Cheat toy designed to look like Mr. Cheatayama, all against a wall with some sheets taped to it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, this costume thing is not a contest. But you guys... win the costume contest! ''{an instrumental version of the il Cartographer theme plays as an image of il Cartographer, Gardenboy, and Mr. Cheatayama in the wrestling ring appears in the corner, with the character in the same positions as the costumes}'' It's all here! Il Cartographer's ''{close-up of the il Cartographer costume's mask}'' floppy hat! ''{close-up of the flag}'' And flag! ''{close-up of his map to the restroom}'' And maps to the restroom! The insidious ''{close-up of Mr. Cheatayama}'' Mr. Cheatayama with his trademark whisk! ''{cut to the entire picture; the image in the corner disappears}'' And you even took the picture in front of a depressing basement wall with some sheets taped to it! That was an actual venue we used to wrestle in! ''{the music stops}'' That's where il Cartographer finally won... ''{A wrestling belt, with a gold waffle design in the middle, zooms in from the center of the screen. There is a carton, melting butter, and a muffin on the waffle design, with the words "Continental Breakfast Champion" written at the top and bottom. The AWMPSCE logo is on both of the sides. The music continues.}'' the Continental Breakfast title belt!<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''LEAD SINGER:''' He won the title match!<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''LEAD SINGER:''' He took-a no crap!<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''LEAD SINGER:''' He's gonna draw another map!<br />
<br />
''{A brown map flies in from the left side of the screen to the middle. There is a compass pointing north in the bottom-left corner. There is a road that goes past Carrot and Kazoo Hill (labeled "CK Hill") and The Stick (unlabeled) to an X near Bubs' Concession Stand, with an arrow pointing to it, with red text reading "here be savings". There is a Yello Dello (labeled "yello-dello") just past the stand. In the bottom right-corner, there is a Bubs head wearing a hat.}''<br />
<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' He's the il Cartographer!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I claim-a this belt in the name of Bubsmfort Inn & Suites! Home of the free continental breakfast! ''{quickly, quietly}'' Located just past Carrot-Kazoo Hill, one mile south of the Yello Dello.<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' ''{a speech bubble appears from the Bubs head on the map, as Bubs reads it:}'' Make yourself Bubsmfortable!<br />

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I found that SHMUPs taste best! You know, like Xeliogravius... IV? ''{the box for Videlectrix game Xeliogravius IV drops down, showing a ship fighting a green alien in what appears to be in a red and pink area with white spikes on the cover. On it is a caption that says "Not a total rip-off!"}'' It's a good game.<br />

<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, this costume thing is not a contest. But you guys... win the costume contest! ''{an instrumental version of the il Cartographer theme plays as an image of il Cartographer, Gardenboy, and Mr. Cheatayama in the wrestling ring appears in the corner, with the character in the same positions as the costumes}'' It's all here! Il Cartographer's ''{close-up of the il Cartographer costume's mask}'' floppy hat! ''{close-up of the flag}'' And flag! ''{close-up of his map to the restroom}'' And maps to the restroom! The insidious ''{close-up of Mr. Cheatayama}'' Mr. Cheatayama with his trademark whisk! ''{cut to the entire picture; the image in the corner disappears}'' And you even took the picture in front of a depressing basement wall with some sheets taped to it! That was an actual venue we used to wrestle in! ''{the music stops}'' That's where il Cartographer finally won... ''{A wrestling belt, with a gold waffle design in the middle, zooms in from the center of the screen. There is a carton, melting butter, and a muffin on the waffle design, with the words "Continental Breakfast Champion" written at the top and bottom. The AWMPSCE logo is on both of the sides.

<br />
'''BACKING SINGERS:''' He's the il Cartographer!<br />

==Transcript==<br />
''{As usual, the toon starts in the basement of the Brothers Strong; the light dims and the projector screen comes down. The first image displayed is a bald man wearing make up to resembles Strong Bad's mask. Two keyboards can be seen behind him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing in the tune of [[The System is down (song)|The System is Down]]. Every time he says "bald", the image is mirrored.}'' The system is bald! The system is bald! The system is bald! Bald, bald, bald, bald! ''{The image is covered with some rave effects and the image randomly reversed or flipped upside down.}'' DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE!<br />
<br />
{The next image shows a guy in a The Cheat hoodie kneeling down. A glow stick appears and spins in front of him.}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{resumes singing and mimics a techno beat mimics.}'' Doom doom doom doom. The system is bald! ''{The picture of the guy in the Strong Bad makeup appears again. The image then spins around.}'' Dah dah doh-la dah dah!<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows up with the same man as before, holding a glass next to a man dressed as Ned Flanders. A little piano ditty plays.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing to a different tune.}'' Now go have a Cold One with Ned Flanders!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a giant Homestar costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Impressive Homestar costume! I see you made him with his rectangle mouth, which I like to call 'Cartridge Mouth Homestar'! I'm always just tempted to shove a VHS tape ''{as Strong Bad lists the examples, the item gets inserted and pressed down into Homestar's mouth}'' or a dusty old musty Game Pak right in there!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I found that SHMUPs taste best! You know, like Xeliogravius... IV? ''{the box for Videlectrix game Xeliogravius IV drops down, showing a ship fighting a green alien in what appears to be in a red and pink area with white spikes on the cover. On it is a caption that says "Not a total rip-off!"}'' It's a good game.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a man dressed up as Coach Z.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, there's actually some pretty good {the next slide shows another person dressed as the aforementioned character} looking Coach Z costumes this year! You guys are really&mdash; ''{the next slide appears}'' Oh, the pain! ''{the next slide appears}'' Oh, the mercy! All right, you guys! I'm calling it! I don't want to see anybody wearing these skin tight green jobs next year!<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Okay, you asked for it! ''{Coach Z hums to himself as some rustling can be heard, accompanied by squishing noises.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah! I was talking about the fans! And what did I tell you about humming those saucy "getting undressed" songs?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' INA-PRO-PRO!<br />
<br />
''{The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the screen, accompanied with a buzzer noise. The next image shows a man dressed up as Senor Cardgage holding a bag. The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the image again, then fades away.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh my dear yes! Gonna have to get analogous on this one.<br />
<br />
''{An analysis sheet is pulled up. The top is written "ANALOGY WORKSHEET - Unit 1 - Cardgage" with the bottom written "this guy: cardgage:: cardgage: strong bad". A sketch of the person wearing the costume appears.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' This guy's costume is to {a sketch of Senor Cardgage appears} Cardgage, as Cardgage {the aforementioned sketch appears, but it mirrored} is to {a sketch of Strong Bad appears} Strong Bad. ''{The sheet moves out of view.}'' He's like a Cardgage among Cardgages. He's like Cardgage squared! Aww, and look! ''{zooms in on the bag of a take out bag of Chick-fil-A lying on the ground}'' Somebody finally took him to ''{imitates Cardgage}'' Chick-fil-A.<br />
<br />
''{The next image shows a guy dressed as D n'D Greg and a woman dressed as What's Her Face.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, that's a dead-on D n'D Greg and What's Her Face, and your wall even dressed up as D n'D Greg's front hallway!<br />
<br />
''{Speech bubbles for D n'D Greg and What's Her Face appear}''<br />
<br />
'''D N'D GREG:''' The KROKUS banner on my front porch drew her near... and this Slayer poster in my hallway won her heart.<br />
<br />
'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Uhh... I like pavement.<br />
<br />
{The next image shows another giant Homestar costume standing in front of a closed door.}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' B-WHOA-HO-HO! If I came out the bathroom and saw that thing standing in the hallway, I'd call in the SWAT flamethrower strike team. ''{Mimics a caller.}'' Uh, yes, officer, there's a seven-foot-tall Homestar Runner with saggy ankles standing in my s-st-stounch! ''{laughs over his next few lines}'' That's what we call the area between the bathroom and the laundry room. The stounch. Come and get him. In my stounch.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide scrolls down with "Pree-ow" playing. A guy has The Paper taped on his face and is standing behind a computer monitor with a Tandy 400 background reading "a> Pretend this computer is 30 years old." The next slide shows a guy dressed as David Byrne and a woman dressed as The Log Lady. They are sitting on a table with candles and a picture of a plant on it, while the guy holds his hands up and his eyes closed.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' So wait, you didn't actually dress up as Strong Sad or Marzipan, you dressed up as the ''{a still showing Strong Sad and Marzipan from [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] appear on the bottom right}'' people they dressed up as one time, and then painstakingly ''{the images move up to the slide, scales to match the propositions and becomes translucent}'' recreated the scene in which they appeared. Well, that sounds exactly like the kinda nerdy thing those two losers would be into anyways. ''{The comparison fades away.}'' So good job.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a person dressed up as motion-capture Strong Bad from [[Sample of Style Too]].}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Nothing like dressing up as an obscure Internet cartoon's even more obscure DVD bonus feature. ''{An image of motion-capture Strong Bad appears on the left side.}'' Mo-Cap Strong Bad, more like "Mowed-Down Strong Bad"! ''{Bubs's baloney truck runs into the picture of Mo-Cap Strong Bad and knocks it out of view.}'' 'Cause it's a very&mdash; there's a lot of black in the costume. Might be hard to see.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a guy wearing a giant light brown pillow over his head, making it resemble a bean. He's sitting on a chair with a travel case next to him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Finally, Large Bean's getting the respect he deserves!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows the same character with a cardboard bean on the person's face. The background is dark and blurred.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey! No fair blurring out the rest of your living room! How am I supposed to make fun of your family's terrible taste in decor?<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a boy in a Homsar costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' AaAaAaAaA! I'm a tall kitty in a pumpkin bag! ''{zooms in the kitty dressed decor in the background.}'' Or, ''{zooms back out}'' don't froth up, ''{zooms in on the unplugged appliance in the background}'' I unplugged the papasan! Man! Middle America's houses ''{zooms back out}'' are rife with Homsar quotes!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a guy dressed as Old-Timey Strong Bad sitting on the steps next to a sign. The image is in a sepia tone.}''<br />
<br />
'''OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD:''' Yes, feast your depression-era eyes on Strong Bad's Flavor Taste ''{zooms in on the sign}'' Tricks and Treats! {A logo of a spoon holding a white powder slide in from the top right} A spoonful of bakinged soda one could mistake for sugar and some molasses {a bottle of molasses slides in the bottom left with a dead goat on it. On it has the words "premulum" on it} bequeathed to me by a goat, upon its untimely demise! ''{zooms back out}'' Strong Bad is your number one candym'n!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows someone wearing a Coach Z costume.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys.<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows someone wearing a Senor Cardgage costume with some animals strapped on his knees, with a similar background and image quality.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows both images, with Senor Cardgage on the left and Coach Z on the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys!! These are good costumes. These are ''great'' costumes! But why, in the year of our King of Town 2017, when everyone has a 12-jillion gregapixel camera in their pocket, ''{close-up of the Senor Cardgage costume's mask}'' do you send me pictures that look like they were taken on your... ''{a pink flip-phone with "Sweet Digits" written on it slides to the center of the screen}'' grandma's candy flip-phone that you don't have the heart to tell her ''{the phone opens, revealing a cartoony winking face on the screen, and a hole filled with colored balls below the buttons, with some spilling out of the phone.}'' it's not a real phone?! ''{grandma voice}'' But I had ''such'' good conversations with Little Protelzo! ''{normal voice}'' That's her&mdash; that's her grandson. Little Protelzo.<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows one person dressed as il Cartographer, with a flag and map to the restroom, and a person dressed as Gardenboy beside him, with a rake and watering can, and a Kick The Cheat toy designed to look like Mr. Cheatayama, all against a wall with some sheets taped to it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, this costume thing is not a contest. But you guys... win the costume contest! ''{an instrumental version of the il Cartographer theme plays as an image of il Cartographer, Gardenboy, and Mr. Cheatayama in the wrestling ring appears in the corner, with the character in the same positions as the costumes}'' It's all here! Il Cartographer's ''{close-up of the il Cartographer costume's mask}'' floppy hat! ''{close-up of the flag}'' And flag! ''{close-up of his map to the restroom}'' And maps to the restroom! The insidious ''{close-up of Mr. Cheatayama}'' Mr. Cheatayama with his trademark whisk! ''{cut to the entire picture; the image in the corner disappears}'' And you even took the picture in front of a depressing basement wall with some sheets taped to it! That was an actual venue we used to wrestle in! ''{the music stops}'' That's where il Cartographer finally won... ''{A wrestling belt, with a gold waffle design in the middle, zooms in from the center of the screen. There is a carton, melting butter, and a muffin on the waffle design, with the words "Continental Breakfast Champion" written at the top and bottom. The AWMPSCE logo is on both of the sides.

Bald, bald, bald, bald! {The image is covered with some rave effects and the image randomly reversed or flipped upside down} DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE!<br />

''{The next frame shows a giant Homestar costume}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Impressive Homestar costume! I see you made him with his rectangle mouth, which I like to call 'Cartridge Mouth Homestar'! I'm always tempted to shove a VHS tape {as Strong Bad lists the examples, the item gets inserted and pressed down into Homestar's mouth} or a dusty old must Game Pak right in there!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I found that SHUMPs taste best! You know, like {a box of Xeliogravius 4 drops down, showing a ship fighting a green alien in what appears to be in a red and pink area with white spikes on the cover. On it is a caption that says "Not a total rip-off!"} Xeliogravius 4? It's a good game.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a man dressed up as Coach Z, as he speaks, he shows other people dressed up as the same character}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, there's actually some pretty good looking Coach Z costumes this year! You guys really- {reacts to the third photo} Oh, the pain! {the next image shows up in which he reacts to it again} Oh, the mercy! All right, you guys! I'm calling it! I don't want to see anybody wearing this skin tight green jobs next year!<br />

Aww, and look! {zooms in on the bag of a take out bag of Chick-fil-A lying on the ground} Somebody finally took him to Chick-fil-A!<br />
<br />

If I come out the bathroom and I saw that thing standing in the hallway, I's call in the SWAT flamethrower striped team. {Mimics a caller} Uh yes officer, there's a seven foot tall Homestar Runner with saggy ankles standing in my s-st-stounch! That's what we call the area between the bathroom and the laundry room. The stounch. Came and get him from my stounch.<br />

<br />

<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Aaa-oooo-aaaahhh! I'm a tall kitty in a pumpkin bag! {Zooms in the kitty dressed decor in the background} Or, {Zoom back out} don't froth up, {zooms in the unplugged appliance in the background} I unplugged the papason! Man! Middle American houses {zooms back out} are writhed with Homsar quotes!<br />

''{As usual, the toon starts in the basement of the Brothers Strong; the light dims and the projector screen comes down. The first image displayed is a bald man wearing make up to resembles Strong Bad's mask. Two keyboards can be seen behind him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing in the tune of [[The System is down (song)|The System is Down]]. Every time he says "bald", the image is mirrored}'' The system is bald! The system is bald! Bald, bald, bald, bald! {The image is covered with some rave effects and the image randomly reversed or flipped upside down} DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE DOO-DA-DOO-DA-DIDDLE!<br />
<br />
{The next image shows a guy in a The Cheat hoodie kneeling down. A glow stick appears and spins in front of him.}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Strong Bad resumes singing and mimics a techno beat mimics}'' Doom doom doom doom doom doom. The system is bald! {The picture of the guy in the Strong Bad makeup appears again. The image then spins around} Dah dah doh-la dah dah!<br />
<br />
{The next image shows up with the same man as before, holding a glass next to a man dressed as Ned Flanders}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' {A little piano ditty plays as Strong Bad sings in a different tune} Now go out and have a Cold One with Ned Flanders!<br />
<br />
''{The next frame shows a giant Homestar costume}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Impressive Homestar costume! I see you made him with his rectangle mouth, which I like to call 'Cartridge Mouth Homestar'! I'm always tempted to shove a VHS tape {as Strong Bad lists the examples, the item gets inserted and pressed down into Homestar's mouth} or a dusty old must Game Pak right in there!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I found that SHUMPs taste best! You know, like {a box of Xeliogravius 4 drops down, showing a ship fighting a green alien in what appears to be in a red and pink area with white spikes on the cover. On it is a caption that says "Not a total rip-off!"} Xeliogravius 4? It's a good game.<br />
<br />
''{The next slide shows a man dressed up as Coach Z, as he speaks, he shows other people dressed up as the same character}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, there's actually some pretty good looking Coach Z costumes this year! You guys really- {reacts to the third photo} Oh, the pain! {the next image shows up in which he reacts to it again} Oh, the mercy! All right, you guys! I'm calling it! I don't want to see anybody wearing this skin tight green jobs next year!<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' OK, you asked for it! {Coach Z hums to himself as some rustling can be heard, later accompanied by sounds of squishing liquid or slime}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah! I was talking about the fans! And what did I tell you about humming those saucy "getting undressed" songs?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' INA-PRO-PRO!<br />
<br />
{The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the screen, accompanied with a buzzer. The next image shows a man dressed up as Senor Cardgage holding a bag. The "INA-PRO-PRO" stamp is slammed onto the image again}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh my dear yes! You're gonna have to get anali-gius on this one.<br />
<br />
{An analysis sheet is pulled up. The top is written "ANALOGY WORKSHEET - Unit 1 - Cardgage" with the bottom written "this guy: cardgage:: cardgage: strong bad". As Strong Bad mentions the characters, the drawings of them show up. The second time Strong Bad mentions Senor Cardgage, the image for it is flipped}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' This guy's costume is to Cardgage, as Cardgage is to Strong Bad. {The sheet moves out of view} He's like a Cardgage among Cardgage's, he's like Cardgage squared! Aww, and look! {zooms in on the bag of a take out bag of Chick-fil-A lying on the grounf} Somebody finally took him to Chick-fil-A!<br />
<br />
{The next image shows a guy dressed as D n'D Greg and a woman dressed as What's Her Face. A Slayer poster can be seen behind them.}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, that's a dead on D n'D Greg and What's Her Face, and your wall even dressed up as D n'D Greg's front hallway!<br />
<br />
{Speech bubbles for D n'D Greg and What's Her Face appear}<br />
<br />
'''D N'D GREG:''' The krokus banner on my front porch drew her near and this Slayer poster in the hallway won her heart.<br />
<br />
'''WHAT'S HER FACE:''' Uhh... I like pavement.<br />
<br />
{The next image shows another giant Homestar costume standing in front of a closed door}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' B-WHOA-HO-HO! If I come out the bathroom and I saw that thing standing in the hallway, I's call in the SWAT flamethrower striped team. {Mimics a caller} Uh yes officer, there's a seven foot tall Homestar Runner with saggy ankles standing in my s-st-stounch! That's what we call the area between the bathroom and the laundry room. The stounch. Came and get him from my stounch.<br />
<br />
{The next slide scrolls down with "Pree-ow" playing. A guy has the Paper taped on his face and is standing behind a computer monitor with a Tandy 400 background reading "a> Pretend this computer is 30 years old." The next slide shows a guy dressed as David Byrne and a woman dressed as The Log Lady. They are sitting on a table with candles and a picture of a plant on it, while the guy holds his hands up and his eyes closed}<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' So wait, you didn't actually dress up as Strong Sad or Marzipan, you dressed up as the {a still showing Strong and Marzipan from 3 Times Halloween Funjob appear on the bottom right} people they are dressed up as one time, and then painstakingly {the image move up to the slide, scales to match the propositions and becomes translucent} recreated the scene in which they appeared. Well, that sounds exactly like the kinda nerdy thing those two losers would be into anyways. {the comparison fades away} So good job.<br />

*[[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]] &mdash; When you click on a character to vote on their costume, the subject that appears in the email you send is "I choose you, ''{character's name}''achu.<br />
*Email [[i she be]] &mdash; The Cheat's Instant Messaging [[Contacts|screen name]] is "cheatachu72". This screen name later appears in [[marzipan]] and [[english paper]].<br />

''{Cut to some sort of alleyway. Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat are standing in front of a brick wall with the word JOB stylishly written in graffiti. Strong Bad has a smile on his face}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, Coach, let's give this one more try. Repeat after me. JOB. ''{Because of his accent he pronounces it "jobe".}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Jorb.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad looks at Strong Mad and clears his throat}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Yes, uh, this sounds very good. Uh, my only recommendation would be, next time, try to add some more syllables. Perhaps three. Perhaps four. <br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad snickers, then bursts out laughing wildly, along with Strong Mad and The Cheat. Coach Z looks down, ashamed and embarrassed, and walks off. Strong Bad and the others continue laughing hysterically.}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the locker room. Coach Z is sitting on the bench, depressed with his head on one hand.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{dejectedly}'' Oh, jeez. I'm just not cut out to say the word "jaerb". How am I ever gonna face the boys at practice tomorrow?<br />
<br />
''{Strong Sad enters.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Uhh, Coach Z, uhh, I heard about your problem and I think that I can help. ''{hands him a [[Cassette_Tapes|tape]]}'' This is a tape I made from when I was practicing the dictionary. Listen to it while you slumber. And tomorrow, you may wake to find that...<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{interrupting; excitedly}'' Oh, wow! Thanks a lot, Strong Sad!<br />
<br />
''{Coach Z puts the tape in a tape machine. The tape is labeled "Job—285,194 times." He then presses PLAY and goes to sleep on a bench in the locker room.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{on tape}'' Job. Job. Job. Job. Job. Job. Job. Job...<br />
<br />
''{Coach Z starts having dreams about Strong Sad jumping over a fence and saying the word "job" over and over.}''<br />
<br />
''{The next day, at the athletic field, only Coach Z and Homestar are there. The scoreboard keeps track of how many times Homestar changes directions while running. Coach Z blows his whistle}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{eagerly}'' Well, Coach, how'd I do today?<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Well, I tell ya. You did a great... ''job'', ''{Homestar looks happily surprised}'' Hamstray.<br />
<br />
''{Homestar becomes annoyed and sighs. A small plume of black smoke appears over his head. He starts to leave.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' No, wait, I mean Hamster! I mean Stramstar. I mean Stairmaster. Homegrown! Ramrod? Humphel?!<br />
<br />
''{The words "the end" appear on the scoreboard. After a few seconds, the "[[Coach Z Talker]]" appears.}''<br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
===Trivia===<br />
[[Image:Old homestar jorb.PNG|thumb|150px|Old style Homestar?]]<br />
*This is the first full-length [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] cartoon that uses the [[The Brothers Chaps|Chaps']] current animation style, albeit only for Homestar (when he's facing forward), Coach Z, and Strong Mad (although his M is different). Marzipan, Strong Bad, Bubs, Strong Sad, The Cheat, Pom Pom, and Homestar (when he's facing away), are still drawn in the old style.<br />
**It is revealed from the [[#Commentary Transcript|DVD commentary]] that this cartoon was updated after it was made. Newer character designs from the front side were added, but the back of Homestar's head was left unchanged.<br />
*At the rate Strong Sad repeats the word ''job'' on the tape (about once per second), it would take him approximately 3 days, 7 hours, 13 minutes, and 14 seconds to say it 285,194 times.<br />
*This is the only time that a sidewalk in [[Free Country, USA]] can be seen. This may suggest that it has at least some pavement in it.<br />
*This toon contains one of the first instances of [[Strong Bad smiling]].<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*The old pop-up menu appears on this cartoon (at the bottom). All the buttons still work. Only this toon, [[Chinese Food Toons Menu]], [[Where's The Cheat?]], [[Broken Tandy Menu]], the [[Strong Bad Email#Strong Bad Email Menus|Strong Bad Email Vacation Menu]], and the [[Yearbook Character Page]] seem to still have it.<br />
*In the scene with Homestar at the chalkboard, the older version of Homestar's legs were used. They're supposed to be long and close together, but these are shorter and placed apart.<br />
*Marzipan says to make Coach Z's "mouth" round, even though he has [[Lack of Visible Body Parts#Coach Z's Face|no visible mouth]].<br />
*Strong Bad's mocking of Coach Z seems out of place, considering that ''job'' and ''jorb'' actually both have the same number of syllables, one.<br />
*Marzipan tells Coach Z to round his mouth to make the vowel in ''job''; however, she, like most North American English speakers, pronounces an [[Wikipedia:Open back unrounded vowel|open back unrounded vowel]] in the word. Also, she tells him to "make your mouth into an O, like this. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO", but she pronounces "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" with a [[Wikipedia:Close-mid back rounded vowel|different vowel sound]] (approx. IPA [o]), which does not occur in the word ''job''.<br />
*The name of the SWF file is [[URLs With the Number 2 In Them|cantsayjob2]], despite the toon being located at cantsayjob.html. The cantsayjob.swf file used to exist, but since it was later updated to include Homestar's newest design, the file was replaced.<br />
[[Image:cantsayjob2.png|thumb|Nice Use of Light and shadow, without picnic supplies &mdash; brightness turned up]]<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*All the locks on the lockers look identical, even though the ones on the open lockers should appear to be at a different angle from the ones on the closed lockers.<br />
*In the chalkboard scene, Coach Z is looking toward the camera instead of at the chalkboard.<br />
*When Strong Sad first walks into the locker room, the label on his "job" tape is written backwards.<br />
*Oddly enough, when Strong Sad and Coach Z are in the locker room, the wheels on the cassette tape are spinning, even though it isn't in a tape player. <br />
**This goof can't be seen until Strong Sad hands the tape to Coach Z, because the tape wheels are the same gray color as Strong Sad's body.<br />
*While Strong Bad is laughing, his right arm is disconnected from his body.<br />
*In Coach Z's dream, the "JOB" words flying in the background appear under the fence, but over the small hill that it's on.<br />
*The sound effect of Strong Bad laughing is played too early for the second time, overlapping the first sound.<br />
*Near the end of the scene where Homestar is showing Pom Pom Coach Z's pronouncing of "job", Homestar's head starts to shake.<br />
*In the Coach Z talker, the voices overlap. This is most evident when selecting "jorearb" and then another word.<br />
**Also in the Talker, Coach Z's head doesn't move until the mouse is let go.<br />
* When Homestar is laughing in the beginning, the front of his head slightly comes off of his body.<br />
*During the closeup on Coach Z when Pom Pom is showing him the movie, the outline on his neck sticks out a bit from where it should.<br />
*Before Coach Z blows his whistle the first time, the chain on it disappears.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*Homestar at the chalkboard wearing a teacher's cap refers to [[The King of Town DVD]].<br />
*This is an appearance of [[hypnosis]].<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*In the scene with Pom Pom in the Movie Theatre, the silhouette of [[Wikipedia:Tom Servo|Tom Servo]] of [[Wikipedia:Mystery Science Theater 3000|Mystery Science Theater 3000]] fame is present to the left of Coach Z. The entire scene of having the characters silhouetted against the movie screen is a parody of the style of the show.<br />
*Coach Z strapped into the chair in the theatre is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Ludovico technique|Ludovico technique]] in the [[Stanley Kubrick]] film [[Imdb:tt0066921|A Clockwork Orange]].<br />
*Coach Z calls Homestar Runner "Stairmaster," a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Stairmaster|Stairmaster]] work-out product.<br />
*"Pack it up, pack it in" is a reference to the old [[Wikipedia:House of Pain|House of Pain]] song [[Wikipedia:Jump Around|"Jump Around."]]<br />
*The smoke cloud appearing above Homestar when Coach Z mispronounces his name is an imitation of [[Peanuts]].<br />
*Coach Z's stereo is called [[Ghetto Blastro]]. This is a take on [[Wikipedia:Boombox#"Ghettoblaster"|ghetto blaster]], a popular nickname for boomboxes.<br />
*The background noises in Coach Z's dream are from the "Human Voice" preset on the [[Casio Keyboards|Casio SK-1]].<br />
<br />
===Fast Forward===<br />
*The A and O background noises in Coach Z's "Job Dream" are used again in [[lures & jigs]].<br />
*In [[boring (really)]], Coach Z tells Strong Bad that "jorb" is a four letter word in a list of three-letter words.<br />
*Coach Z later says job, in [[The Homestar Runner Gets Something Stuck In His Craw]].<br />
*This cartoon was later converted into a [[Strong Bad Email]] in [[Sbemailiarized]].<br />
<br />
== DVD Version ==<br />
*The DVD version features creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.<br />
*The Coach Z Talker is removed.<br />

=== Commentary Transcript ===<br />
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' This cartoon invents Coach Z's speech impediment—<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' —basically, doesn't it?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, he had the same voice, but he hadn't really mispronounced words. This cartoon I also feel like, sort of, was the start of the not showing a competition or sporting events-related, uh, cartoon, like Jumping Jack Contest or Marshmallow's Last Stand. It sort of became about the characters.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' The moments in-between those competitions.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' This is actually a redone version too, 'cause originally it was the fat-body Homestar.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah. This is the only cartoon we did this with, right?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I—<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' We went back and changed graphics?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I did it with Luau but we never updated it, we never put it on the website. <br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' You can tell because the back view of Homestar has the fat, old Homestar backward—the back-view head. <br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah. So there's a couple cartoons that has that in it, uh—<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, later?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I think the Stinkoman email—there's a back view of Homestar that we hadn't—it's still the fat-body Homestar back view. ''{Pause}'' Homestar's voice doesn't match his appearance here, compared to anything else on the site. <br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' His legs are a little short there, too.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah! Look at him! That might be the old, fat-body legs, too.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, 'cause I bet we just updated the head, and not his legs or anything. <br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I remember being very proud of this montage sequence here. I thought it was... genius filmmaking. ''{Mike laughs}'' The old Marzipan mouth, too. Look at the flickering flash on that projector! ''{Pause}'' There's Tom Servo, Mike. <br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' And this was I think the second appearance of the Poopsmith.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, that's right. <br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't think he was still... at this point he still wasn't considered a main character.<br />
<br />
''{Pause, until Strong Bad pronounces "Job" as "Jobe"}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{Imitating}'' Jobe. <br />
<br />
''{Pause}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't really, uh... we've never gone back to the brick wall location...<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' The graffiti wall?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The graffiti wall.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It's a background on the Dancin' Bubs game. Sort of.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh yeah, with the cardboard?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Mm hm.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look at that—he's got a spotlight on him! Where did that shadow come from? <br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' The spotlight that's aiming up at him from the ground. ''{Pause until Strong Bad laughs manically}'' Wow, he's really laughing there. ''{Pause again, until Coach Z says "How am I ever gonna face the boys at practice tomorrow?"}'' How's he gonna do it, Mike?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{Imitating Strong Sad}'' Oh, I've got some advice for you, Lonely... Swaddler—<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It's not only... you're not good enough! It's too close; you're not doing a bad enough job on your impression. ''{Doing a Strong Sad impression in a nasally voice that's nothing like him}'' This is a tape I made of a—when I practice the dictionary. Listen to it while you slumber. <br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' That's very good.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It's not whiny at all! <br />
<br />
''{Pause until Coach Z starts the tape}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He must have recorded that on low quality to get 285,000... 'cause that would take a long time.<br />
<br />
''{Matt laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' That's true.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' More than sixty minutes, definitely.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{As Strong Sad is jumping over a fence repeatedly}'' Here goes... There's some weird stuff with the fence, isn't there, when the word "Job" starts to kind of go through the fence... or maybe not. Look at that ball bouncing all by itself! ''{Both laugh}'' Homestar's scoring points somehow.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I think the ball was scoring points by bouncing.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' The ball was actually—<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Or it got points by changing direction.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' The ball was shutting Homestar out four to nothing, in the bouncing contest. ''{Pause until Coach Z says "Hamstray", then Matt sighs exasperatedly:}'' Arggh!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh there's the black—I was just wondering where the black, uh, little curly frustration thing—I was gonna use that today. I couldn't remember what we used it in. <br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' The Peanuts?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, when—<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Frustration smoke?<br />
<br />
''{Mike laughs}''<br />
