G man yo: /**/Strongsad rewind goof

== Format ==
This page does not follow the format at all. Please look at [[Strong Bad Email|emails one through twenty-two]] for examples. And take a look at the [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?page=TranscriptionStandards TranscriptionStandards] page. Please. -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 08:34, 28 Jul 2004 (MST)

:Holy crap!!!!
:I was just trying to get it to look like PomPom email. I didnt relize how diffrent the page looks in the normal skin. (I had a diffrent skin up to speed up page loading on my old computer.) I'll get to work fixing it right away. -James

::Man, thanks for catching all those, Tom. This is a lot of work. -- [[User:JoeyDay|JoeyDay]] 11:09, 28 Jul 2004 (MST)

:::Hey, I didn't catch them all. I left some for you guys. -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 11:23, 28 Jul 2004 (MST)

::::Man, I thought I'd cleaned up most of the problems with it, but it looks like there were plenty more. Page formatting can be a pain. :-P --[[User:James|James]]

:Is it normal for the Cheat's dialogue to be spelled out? Also, Firebert's action figure isn't listed as an Inside Reference to [[action figure]], or as a fast-forward to [[Cheat Commandos]], just explained under Easter Eggs. Is there a non-redundant way to do this? --[[User:notstrongorbad|notstrongorbad]] 04:18, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

==Removed fun fact ==
I removed this fun fact:

*Pay close attention when the [[Homestarmy]] arrives in Strong Badia. Homsar just wobbles off!

Because this had already been acknowledged in the transcript. --[[User:Upsilon|Upsilon]]

== Date Fun Fact ==
Is the fun fact

*This email was added on January 5, 2004

''really'' needed? We have the Updates section for the dates, so why should we have it here? --<small>[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]</small><sub>|[[User_Talk:FireBird|Talk]]</sub>

no-[[user:Jhonka|Jhonka]]

== Hold the Line! ==
What's that supposed to mean?

Strong Sad is trying to to keep the the [[Homestarmy]] from retreating so that the Strongbadians won't win the "battle". This kind of line is common in war movies. --[[User:Stong Bad|Stong Bad]] 17:19, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Is that line from any particular movie we could reference? -- [[User:TaranchulaVamp15|TaranchulaVamp15]] 14:33, 29 Sept 2005 (UTC)

:Please note what they say about it in the DVD Commentary, TaranchulaVamp. --[[User:notstrongorbad|notstrongorbad]]
::I've heard it a ''lot'', so I dont think its from a particular movie. {{User:Bubsty/sig}} 00:25, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

"Hold the Line" is also a song by [[Wikipedia:Toto (band)|Toto]] that enjoyed some popularity -- I mention it here because I think there's absolutely no relation at all.

== Do you HAS what it takes? ==

When Homestar says "Do you ''has'' what it takes...?" during his little recruitment speech (with particular emphasis on the "has"), I'd always thought that that was a Yellow Dellow reference. At one point in The Yellow Dellow, Homestar says "I think I has the solution!" This incorrect choice of words is mentioned by Strong Sad in the DVD commentary. I'd always heard Homestar's "Do you has what it takes...?" to be a reference to that (replacing "have" with "has").--[[User:Rocketlex|Rocketlex]] 08:37, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

== Hankatollah? ==

This is the stuff of which bad Real World References are made, but for that reason I was kind of surprised not to find anything in the history speculating that "Hankatola" is a reference to the Islamic title [[Wikipedia:Ayatollah|Ayatollah]]. Given the militaristic them of this email and current global events, this would be somewhat interesting. --[[User:notstrongorbad|notstrongorbad]] 04:18, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)

== Tape rewind noise ==

It's interesting to note that Strong Sad ''didn't'' forget to rewind. The rewind noise is clearly audible after the second "YEAH!". - [[User:SoulSkorpion|SoulSkorpion]] 10:14, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
:Yes, and it is indeed [[army#Goofs|noted]] {{User:Phlip/sig}} 10:20, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

== Shhh... Strong Sad's Asleep ==
To me, this email sounds a bit quieter than all of the others. I have done a comparison many times and still found this to be true. Does anyone else notice this? {{User:The_Coachsmith/sig}} 21:32, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

== Skirt? ==
In the transcript, it states that Homestar says "...trade in that skirt you're wearing." Am I the only one who thinks he says "scrap" instead of "skirt?" Anybody? {{User:The_Coachsmith/sig}} 21:36, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
:Uh... yes. He quite definately says skirt. {{User:Bubsty/sig}} 19:42, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

== Bennedetto ==

In the DVD commentary they say Frank's a Presto air popper, so it's more likely he's a Presto 04820 PopLite Popcorn Maker then a West Bend 01568 Popcorn Maker. The [http://www.epinions.com/hmgd-review-E38-1DE3023B-3A4906CE-prod4 Presto] has the orange top and everything.

But more importantly, should this be moved to Frank's character page? [[User:Qermaq|Qermaq]] 19:19, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

:With no further comments, it's been changed. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 02:38, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

== collin l homestar ==

yea yea i know it is just colonel pronounced phonetically, but still, are there any other references to collin l or homestar having another ( not different ) name {{User:Csours/sig}} 06:37, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

== Strongsad rewind goof ==

Should there be some reference to the fact that mike and matt actually mentioned the mistake they had made by putting the extra rewind sound in their comentary? [[User:G man yo|G man yo]] 10:53, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

When Strong bad sings at the start, it's to the tune of the theme music for the old kids' show "Romper Room." Where should I add this? --
[[User:Caradhras|Caradhras]] 03:01, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Apparently, no where. Seeing as it '''is''' no where. Add it! {{User:Bubsty/sig}} 04:59, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

can't beat that logic. oh, wait. you can. '''because that was the stupidest thing i have ever heard.'''[[User:Seriously|Seriously]] 18:40, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

I'm not so well hrwiki-educated, so I'm going to suggest somebody add in some of the scenery to the song- like when SB carves the logo on SM's arm, "close-up of The Cheat, who stands proudly" or something

I'm saying the whole thing is off-sync. Strong Bad sings in a kinda 3/4 time, while The Cheat plays the tune in a 4/4 time. --[[User:68.145.103.189|68.145.103.189]] 00:15, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Should we put it in the remarks that strongbad's voice when he says "population tire" at the end of the strong badia national anthem sounds almost exactly like homsar's voice? [[User:G man yo|G man yo]] 08:39, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
:I don't think so, as I don't really hear much of a similarity at at all. {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 09:36, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

::Really, because i heard the song from a download before actually seeing the e-mail, and i actually thought it was homsar singing. It does sound a little more strongbad-like than homsar, but it still has a sort of homsar sound to it. [[User:G man yo|G man yo]] 10:14, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
