== Easter Eggs ==
*You can no longer click on the word "abused" when Strong Bad says it, but originally it restarted the toon. It may have been a placeholder for an unactivated Easter egg, or it could have just been a glitch in the toon.
*You can click on the [[Pizza|pizza]] box to see the top of it. (It says: "[[Bubs' Old Pizza]] 'It's-A Really Old'")
*You can click on the ''[[Fretmagic]]'' magazines after the paper comes down to see [[Gary Palaroncini]] (from [[Limozeen]]) demonstrate the "Hardest Chord Ever" (be sure to do this ''before'' torching them, see below.) '''Note''': The chord requires eleven fingers. Talk about a difficult chord!
<pre> The Hardest Chord Ever

Staten Island fretmaster Gary Palaroncini discovered
the 'hardest chord ever' last week in his basement studio.
Palaroncini had been in hot pursuit of the chord for the
better part of 6 years. "I finally got it!" said Palaroncini.
The chord is a combination of a diminished 9th and a
demonished 10th. "This chord is going to land me a
sweet record deal
with Shrapnel and
hopefully some
fine honies, too.
The chord was
perfected on a
Ibanez G800-XV.
Palaroncini's mom
is reportedly very
proud. </pre>
*After doing the above, you can also click on The Cheat's hand to get him to torch the lame magazines.

'''HOMESTAR:''' Ooh, three points.

''{Strong Bad pokes his head in again}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooooh, and another point for you, The Cheat.

== Fun Facts ==
===Remarks===
*The hole punches are in the shape of Strong Bad's boxing gloves.
*The Cheat makes use of four of his new privileges in this toon: the [[Crisper drawer|crisper drawer]], the [[Remote Control|mute button]], pizza toppings (mushrooms and Pop-Tarts), and the [[BMW Lighter|BMW Lighter]] (to torch Homestar's magazines).
*The "Hardest Chord Ever", as explained by the Fretmagic article, technically doesn't exist. "Demonished 10th" is meaningless musical jargon, although there is a such thing as a diminished 9th chord.

=== Goofs ===
*Strong Bad and the stool are knocked to the ground, yet even though he never picks it up, he is still able to sit on it when checking The Cheat's new privileges.
*When Homestar walks in to deliver the pizza, his shirt changes color.
*The quote in the article ''The Hardest Chord Ever'' about how it landed Palaroncini a sweet record deal doesn't have a closing quote mark.

=== Real-World References ===
*"So long, and thanks for all the privileges" is a reference to "So long, and thanks for all the fish", a phrase (and [[Wikipedia:So Long, and Thanks For All the Fish|book]] of the same name) from the [[Wikipedia:The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy|Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]] series by [[Wikipedia:Douglas Adams|Douglas Adams]].
*Possible references for the TV show The Cheat is watching:
**''[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067023 Duel]'', a 1971 TV movie starring [[Wikipedia:Dennis Weaver|Dennis Weaver]] as a commuter menaced by a mysterious, homicidal tanker truck driver. It was [[Wikipedia:Steven Spielberg|Steven Spielberg's]] first feature-length film.
**''[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091499 Maximum Overdrive]'', a movie based on [[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King's]] story about trucks (among other things) that come to life and try to kill people.

*"The Flying Vee" is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Gibson|Gibson's]] [[Wikipedia:Flying V|Flying V guitar]]. Gibson designed it in 1958, along with the Explorer, in an attempt to doff its conservative image. However, it worked too well, as it sold poorly at that time. It wasn't until the late 1960s and '70s, and especially the advent of heavy metal, that the Flying V gained renewed popularity.
*[[Wikipedia:Ibanez|Ibanez]] (mentioned in the "Hardest Chord" Easter egg) is a real guitar maker whose guitars are popular in heavy metal circles; however, it doesn't appear that they've ever made any model called "G800-XV."
*"Saturday Segwayday" is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Segway|Segway]] scooter, a self-balancing scooter touted to revolutionize human transport. Investors expected hundreds of thousands of units to be sold, generating billions of dollars in sales in the first year. In reality, the Segway sold around only 10,000 units in its first few years and is still trying to overcome an identity crisis.

*"Going to Acapulco" is a song by Bob Dylan & The Band, from the album "The Basement Tapes".

===Fast Forward===
*The TV show watched by The Cheat is watched by Strong Bad in [[Cool Things]].

*The magazines come back after The Cheat torches them.

==Screenshot size==
I think that the recently added [[Media:invisibility.PNG|screenshot]] is a bit large. Usually we just stick to the default size displayed on H*R.com. Or there abouts. --[[User:Tom|Tom]] 16:47, 14 Sep 2004 (MST)

== Justin Bailey ==

The text below was moved from the article page. While this may or may not be valid, this is a case where the talk page should be used.

One thing I corrected was the change from "JUSTIN BAILEY ****** ******" to "****** JUSTIN BAILEY ******". The former code is the correct one (though the latter may work, that's not the standard code used). The asterisks are not placed there for emphasis, it's how the code is.

And for the record, the whole JUSTIN BAILEY thing is a coincidence. That code just happens to be one of the valid codes for swimsuit mode. You can verify this with a Metroid Password Generator.

This was NOT PORN, however. It was discovered when a gamer found out that by entering his name on the first line of the password entry and a series of dashes on the second, Samus became, for lack of a better term, "Super Samus". The password screen would look like this:
JUSTIN BAILEY

<nowiki>------ ------</nowiki>
The code works with spaces instead of dashes as well.

Uh... gamer name? That sounds like an urban legend. I've heard that it stands for 'JUST IN BAILEY', where 'bailey' is British slang for swimsuit, but no internet page will validate that. --[[User:83.88.139.108|83.88.139.108]] 08:58, 30 Nov 2004 (MST)

:I've read that the "bailey = slang" thing isn't true. I don't think anyone really knows who came up with the Bailey code. Another code that works is

== DVD Killed the Compy-o Star ==

It seems fairly obvious by the fact that the commentary for this e-mail mentioned the [[Lappy 486]] that the release of the DVD reminded the Chaps to get rid of the Compy. Anyone else think they should have waited a bit longer and/or used a different new computer so that it wouldn't seem that way? --[[User:205.188.117.9|205.188.117.9]] 17:13, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)

:I really don't like the Lappy, or at least I miss the compy way too much. The Lappy seemed like too much of a technical leap forward, almost like S.B. using the Cheat's iMac. --[[User:216.43.222.215|216.43.222.215]] 23:18, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
