Cut to Homestar Runner, with his cinnamon five-o'clock shadow, in bed yawning. Homestar sits up and looks out the window, and the music stops with a record scratch. It's the middle of the night.}'' <br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh crap! ''{cut to outside Homestar's window looking in}'' I set the alarm for 10 PM instead of AM again!<br /> <br /> ''{cut back to inside the bedroom}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I was supposed to go Decemberween shopping today! <br /> <br /> ''{Another record scratch as the camera focuses on a page-a-day calendar, which reads "Dec. 25 — 'The D'Ween, yo.'"}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh crap! It's Decemberween already! <br /> <br /> ''{Homestar jumps out of bed and runs off, and we hear the sound of him smacking into something. Pan right to reveal Homestar landing on the floor.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh crap! I ran into the door! <br /> <br /> ''{Homestar gets up and runs off again. The camera shakes to banging noises offscreen.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{dryly}'' Oh crap, I fell down the stairs. <br /> <br /> ''{Cut to outside Homestar's house. Naked and censored, Homestar leaps out and looks around.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sighing}'' And now, I ran out of the house, naked somehow. <br /> <br /> ''{Homestar looks up at the snow.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{happily}'' Ooh, but it ''is'' snowing. <br /> <br /> ''{Cut back to the calendar, over which the cartoon title appears, then to a field view with the the title "Blah blah blah — The Brothers Chaps," then to the side of Bubs' Decemberween-decorated concession stand and the title "Vocal Styles by Missy & Matt," and then finally to the Strongs' living room with the title "Here we go."}''<br /> <br /> ''{In the Strongs' basement, a Capsela set, present wrappings, and a box of [[The Cheatcakes|cheatcakes]] are on the floor. Strong Mad is on the couch wearing a green Decemberween sweater with snowflakes on it. He's happily tossing a large rock with a winking face drawn on it and a red ribbon up in the air and catching it.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG MAD:''' I LOVE YOU, TONY STONY! ''{holding the rock in front of his face}'' NO, I LOVE YOU MORE!<br /> <br /> ''{The camera pans over to reveal Strong Bad playing with an extending claw toy in front of a box labeled "Grabbo Arm."}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' This thing is awesome. The Grabbo Arm ''demands'' respect. ''{to Strong Mad}'' I'd like to see somebody front on this. ''{calling}'' Hey, The Cheat! <br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT:''' ''{off-camera}'' Meh?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Grab a hold of that egg nog. <br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT:''' ''{off-camera} {"Okay" noise}''<br /> <br /> ''{The Cheat yelps as Strong Bad extends the Grabbo Arm, grabs him, and pulls him onscreen. He's wearing a red nose and antlers and holding a glass of egg nog.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, man. <br /> <br /> ''{Cut to outside, where Homsar is waving a paintbrush, standing next to a Salvation Army-like red pail with a sign over it reading "Baked Beans." The paintbrush inexplicably rings like a bell. Homestar runs by, then skids to a stop in the snow and turns around.}'' <br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Listen up, shortstop. I need some presents. <br /> <br /> '''HOMSAR:''' Alms for the pudgy? ''{rings paintbrush}'' Alms for the pudgy?<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Uhm, I don't know what any of that means, but I will make use of your complimentary spit bucket. Ahct-poo! <br /> <br /> ''{Homestar then spits into the bucket and runs off.}'' <br /> <br /> '''HOMSAR:''' You're a real state trooper.<br /> <br /> ''{Homsar's hat flies up and goes off screen, and then falls down like a snowflake. Homestar runs across the countryside in silhouette, then to Bubs' Concession Stand.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{quickly}'' Bubs, I need to buy everyone and their brother Decemberween presents! ''{panting}''<br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' Running a little late, aren't we Homestar? <br /> <br /> ''{Zoom in on Homestar.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I've got an hour and 45 minutes. What do you got?<br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' ''{motioning to his left}'' Well, there's a bunch of my aught-four crap in that filthy box over there. Gotta make room for the aught-five crap!<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar walks over to the box, clearly labeled "aught four crap," and kneels down. The camera switches to inside the box looking out.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, what do we got here? ''{pulls out electrical tape}'' Electrical tape? Pom Pom loves electrical tape. What else, what else? ''{pulls out a steak knife}'' Ohh, rusty steak knife. That's got Coach Z written all over it.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to the locker room. Coach Z is sitting on the bench in front of a TV dinner on a tray.}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Ooh, Salisbury steak! Ring ring! ''{Picks up a phone with frayed wires, not attached to anything}'' Hellor? Ooh, Mom! Well, a very cheery Decemberween to you too! ''{shakes his head}'' Oh, Dad, it's you! Sorry about that. Yes, sir, I cooked a turkey, with the gravied yams and stuffinged ham. ''{camera zooms out to show entire bench}'' No, I'm not alone. Yes, this phone is plugged in.<br /> <br /> ''{The lights suddenly go out.}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Aww, crackles. ''{Dejectedly}'' I forgot to pay my bills again this year.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut back to the concession stand. Homestar pulls out a banana with an arrow through it.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey Bubs, check this out. For the Poopsmith who has everything. <br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' You give me anything in that box, you'll be gettin' a kick in the skull with a ribbon on it. <br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Right right. Ribbons. Bubs loves ribbons. Lessee... Strong Sad. Don't need to worry about Strong Sad.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to an old fashioned bathtub with chains holding the boards covering the top in place.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{singing, from locked inside the tub}'' One night in Bangkok and the rough got rougher...<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to Marzipan's house, where she is sitting on the couch sporting Decemberween lights in her hair.}''<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' If Homestar doesn't get here soon with my present, ''{camera zooms in}'' I'm gonna cook his goose!<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar runs in and trips, falling flat on his face in front of Marzipan. He gets up in a daze and hands Marzipan a wrapped present.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{groggily}'' Happy Decemberween, Marzi-man.<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar falls back on the floor and Marzipan opens the present.}''<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{sounding disappointed}'' Wire cutters? <br /> <br /> ''{Strong Bad walks in.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Foolish Homestar. Decemberween is not about getting people presents. It's about getting people ''good'' presents! ''Good presents!'' Not this last-minute discount crap you're trying to foist on us!<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{interrupting}'' Oh, Homestar, it's perfect!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER AND STRONG BAD:''' ''{both of them in unison}'' It is? ''{Homestar shakes his head a few times in disbelief of his blind luck}''<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' This is just what I need to free the baby seals from the crab traps down at the wharfs. ''{Marzipan walks off, singing to herself}'' Free the baby seals...<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Well, shut my mouth.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well well, Strong-o Bad-o. Looks like the ol' captain of the team still has what it takes.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{brandishing his Grabbo Arm}'' Oh yeah? Well, the Grabbo Arm has what it takes, ''{extends the the Grabbo Arm}'' and what it takes is Marzipan's purse.<br /> <br /> ''{The Grabbo Arm comes back with Marzipan's purse.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' No skin off my back.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, thanks! Have a nice last seven minutes of Decemberween, Homestar. ''{pokes Homestar with Marzipan's purse}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{increduously}'' There's only seven minutes left of Decemberween?! Oh, crap! I forgot to get everyone presents!<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar runs off again.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Ugh, it goes on and on like this.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{off-camera}'' Oh, crap! There's only seven minutes left of Decemberween?!<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar Runner runs back behind Strong Bad.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Seriously. Like until New Year's...<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{off-camera}'' Oh, crap! there's only seven minutes left of...<br /> <br /> ''{scene fades to black.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' I didn't know we had any wharfs. <br /> <br /> ''{The camera returns to Homestar's clock, which displays the number of minutes remaining until Decemberween/Christmas ends. The back button appears.}''<br /> <br /> == Easter Eggs ==<br /> *Click on "Homestar's Clock" at the end to see what happened to the three main characters left out of this toon.<br /> :''{The King of Town, the Poopsmith, and Pom Pom sit around a table in the King of Town's castle with two cans, one labeled "gravied yams" and the other labeled "stuffinged ham" on the table. On the wall behind them is a sign that reads, "Left Out Characters' Support Group & Buffet."}''<br /> :'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Pass the gravied yams, please. And don't bogart that stuffinged ham neither!<br /> <br /> == Fun Facts ==<br /> ===Explanations===<br /> [[Image:SevenMinutes.PNG|thumb|AW CRAP!! Only 7 minutes left of Decemberween! You never bought any presents!]]<br /> *At the end, [[Homestar's Clock]] originally counted down the minutes remaining of Decemberween 2004. It works by counting down the minutes until the end of the 25th of the current month (based on the local computer system's clock).<br /> **When the counter reaches zero, the clock reads, "It's over" (a [[Teen Girl Squad]] reference). It is possible to skip to the "It's over" message by choosing "Play" from the Flash menu while viewing the SWF directly.<br /> **After the 25th of the month, Homestar's Clock seems to run forward, counting the minutes since that day passed. The tens spot of the seconds is empty, and when the counter reaches 10 each minute, the tens are displayed in the ones spot, and ones are not displayed until the next minute.<br /> <br /> ===Trivia===<br /> *This is the third appearance of [[Cinnamon|cinnamon]]. Homestar's cinnamon beard, however, was first seen in [[caper]].<br /> *Strong Bad's Grabbo Arm makes the [[Sound Effects|same noises]] as Homestar's tricked-out propeller cap in [[car]].<br /> *The Cheat is dressed as Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer.<br /> *This episode marks Homsar's first appearance in a Decemberween toon.<br /> *Homestar's comment to Strong Bad referring to himself as the "ol' captain of the team" is also referenced in [[The Brothers Chaps|the Brothers Chaps']] [[Wired News Radio Interview - 23 June 2003|interview]] with [http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,59261,00.html Wired].<br /> *This is the first main Decemberween toon that does not end in a multi-character holiday greeting.<br /> *The sound quality is higher than normal, resulting in crisper sound compared to other toons on the site.<br /> <br /> ===Remarks===<br /> *If Homestar slept through December 24 (as many assume after watching this toon), he could not have changed his tear-away calendar to the 25th. <br /> *This is one of the few times we see the inside of [[Homestar's House]], and the very first time we see his bedroom. The outside looks as it did in [[The Best Decemberween Ever]], which is different from how it looked in older toons, such as [[The Reddest Radish]] and [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD]].<br /> *Homestar's alarm clock here is different from the alarm clock in [[radio]]. It was apparently made just for him, as it says "Homestar's Clock" right on it.<br /> **It is unclear how Homestar's clock could even differentiate between 10:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. &mdash; usually digital clocks have a light or indicator when it is night time, but Homestar's clock has none.<br /> *Homestar does not sleep in the Race Car Bed he bought with Marzipan's credit card in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 10.2]].<br /> *When Homestar runs from Homsar he doesn't leave any tracks.<br /> *Homestar takes about 15 minutes to go from his house to Bubs' Concession Stand; he woke up at 10, and then told Bubs that he had an 1 hour and 45 minutes left when he got to the concession stand.<br /> *Coach Z's "I forgot to pay my bills again this year" used to be "I forgot to pay my electric bill again this year".<br /> *Coach Z pronounces Decemberween correctly this year, as opposed to his pronunciation in The Best Decemberween Ever, in which he sings "Decemberwoyrn".<br /> *Apparently [[Free Country, USA]] has wharfs, although Strong Bad didn't know this either, despite him appearing in a boat in both [[lures & jigs]] and [[montage]].<br /> <br /> ===Inside References===<br /> *Coach Z's [[Disconnected Telephones|disconnected telephone]] resembles the one from [[replacement]].<br /> *Strong Sad is locked in the bathtub—something he said his brothers do to him every Decemberween, according to [[The Best Decemberween Ever]].<br /> *Also, some of the scenes in this toon are similar to those in The Best Decemberween Ever. They include:<br /> **The plot of the toon, which is to get someone a Decemberween present (though in The Best Decemberween Ever he only focused on Strong Bad, here, Homestar focuses on everyone).<br /> **Homestar emerging from his home (albeit naked, which was not the case with The Best Decemberween Ever).<br /> **The long shot of Homestar running (but in this case, it's night instead of day).<br /> **Homestar approaching [[Bubs' Concession Stand]].<br /> <br /> ===Real-World References===<br /> *[[Homestar Runner's Sleepwear|The piano T-shirt]] Homestar is wearing in bed is essentially the same as that worn by [[Wikipedia:Michael Jackson|Michael Jackson]] in bed in the video for [[Wikipedia:Beat It|"Beat It"]]. This includes the inaccurate depiction of a keyboard, showing both single black keys and three white keys in a row.<br /> *The toy seen briefly on the floor in the Strongs' living room is a [[The Strongs' Capsela|Capsela]] set, a module-based construction set which can be used to make portable fans, real floating boats, all manner of wheel and caterpillar-driven vehicles, and even remote-controlled robots. It appears as though their set in particular was used to make a boat (the "balloon" capsules on the bottom are a dead giveaway).<br /> *Strong Mad's rock is a reference to "pet rocks" which were popular in the mid-'70s.<br /> *Homsar's "Alms for the pudgy" request, and Baked Beans bucket/complimentary spit-bucket is a take on the [[Wikipedia:Salvation Army|Salvation Army]]'s annual Christmas drives.<br /> *While locked in the bathtub, Strong Sad sings a misquoted lyric from the song "[[Wikipedia:One Night in Bangkok|One Night in Bangkok]]," from the musical "''[[Wikipedia:Chess_(musical)|Chess]]''". It became a number one hit for Murray Head in 1984, and was composed and written by Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus of ABBA and Tim Rice. The correct quotes are "One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster," "One night in Bangkok makes the hard man humble," and "One night in Bangkok makes the tough guys tumble."<br /> *The term "bogart", meaning to hold out on, refers to the great [[Wikipedia:Humphrey Bogart|Humphrey Bogart]], to describe the way he would hold out on tapping his cigarette ash by instead letting it build up and fall on its own.<br /> <br /> == DVD Version ==<br /> *Homestar's clock at the end of the toon says "e:nd" instead of having the countdown.<br /> *The DVD version features creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.<br /> <br /> === Commentary Transcript ===<br /> ('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' This is the&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Well if it isn't Mike Chapman!<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' That's ''you''.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Oh.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Who are ''you''?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' I'm...Matt.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I wish I had that alarm clock.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah.

It might be ''you'' actually.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I doubt that.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{pause}'' Uh oh. I have a feeling that we're going to see something depressing with Coach Z, Mike.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Shh! ''{pauses and laughs a little as Coach Z talks on the phone.}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' So... do you think that he has parents?

Cut to Homestar Runner, with his cinnamon five-o'clock shadow, in bed yawning. Homestar sits up and looks out the window, and the music stops with a record scratch. It's the middle of the night.}'' <br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh crap! ''{cut to outside Homestar's window looking in}'' I set the alarm for 10 PM instead of AM again!<br /> <br /> ''{cut back to inside the bedroom}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I was supposed to go Decemberween shopping today! <br /> <br /> ''{Another record scratch as the camera focuses on a page-a-day calendar, which reads "Dec. 25 — 'The D'Ween, yo.'"}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh crap! It's Decemberween already! <br /> <br /> ''{Homestar jumps out of bed and runs off, and we hear the sound of him smacking into something. Pan right to reveal Homestar landing on the floor.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh crap! I ran into the door! <br /> <br /> ''{Homestar gets up and runs off again. The camera shakes to banging noises offscreen.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{dryly}'' Oh crap, I fell down the stairs. <br /> <br /> ''{Cut to outside Homestar's house. Naked and censored, Homestar leaps out and looks around.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sighing}'' And now, I ran out of the house, naked somehow. <br /> <br /> ''{Homestar looks up at the snow.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{happily}'' Ooh, but it ''is'' snowing. <br /> <br /> ''{Cut back to the calendar, over which the cartoon title appears, then to a field view with the the title "Blah blah blah — The Brothers Chaps," then to the side of Bubs' Decemberween-decorated concession stand and the title "Vocal Styles by Missy & Matt," and then finally to the Strongs' living room with the title "Here we go."}''<br /> <br /> ''{In the Strongs' basement, a Capsela set, present wrappings, and a box of [[The Cheatcakes|cheatcakes]] are on the floor. Strong Mad is on the couch wearing a green Decemberween sweater with snowflakes on it. He's happily tossing a large rock with a winking face drawn on it and a red ribbon up in the air and catching it.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG MAD:''' I LOVE YOU, TONY STONY! ''{holding the rock in front of his face}'' NO, I LOVE YOU MORE!<br /> <br /> ''{The camera pans over to reveal Strong Bad playing with an extending claw toy in front of a box labeled "Grabbo Arm."}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' This thing is awesome. The Grabbo Arm ''demands'' respect. ''{to Strong Mad}'' I'd like to see somebody front on this. ''{calling}'' Hey, The Cheat! <br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT:''' ''{off-camera}'' Meh?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Grab a hold of that egg nog. <br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT:''' ''{off-camera} {"Okay" noise}''<br /> <br /> ''{The Cheat yelps as Strong Bad extends the Grabbo Arm, grabs him, and pulls him onscreen. He's wearing a red nose and antlers and holding a glass of egg nog.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, man. <br /> <br /> ''{Cut to outside, where Homsar is waving a paintbrush, standing next to a Salvation Army-like red pail with a sign over it reading "Baked Beans." The paintbrush inexplicably rings like a bell. Homestar runs by, then skids to a stop in the snow and turns around.}'' <br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Listen up, shortstop. I need some presents. <br /> <br /> '''HOMSAR:''' Alms for the pudgy? ''{rings paintbrush}'' Alms for the pudgy?<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Uhm, I don't know what any of that means, but I will make use of your complimentary spit bucket. Ahct-poo! <br /> <br /> ''{Homestar then spits into the bucket and runs off.}'' <br /> <br /> '''HOMSAR:''' You're a real state trooper.<br /> <br /> ''{Homsar's hat flies up and goes off screen, and then falls down like a snowflake. Homestar runs across the countryside in silhouette, then to Bubs' Concession Stand.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{quickly}'' Bubs, I need to buy everyone and their brother Decemberween presents! ''{panting}''<br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' Running a little late, aren't we Homestar? <br /> <br /> ''{Zoom in on Homestar.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I've got an hour and 45 minutes. What do you got?<br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' ''{motioning to his left}'' Well, there's a bunch of my aught-four crap in that filthy box over there. Gotta make room for the aught-five crap!<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar walks over to the box, clearly labeled "aught four crap," and kneels down. The camera switches to inside the box looking out.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, what do we got here? ''{pulls out electrical tape}'' Electrical tape? Pom Pom loves electrical tape. What else, what else? ''{pulls out a steak knife}'' Ohh, rusty steak knife. That's got Coach Z written all over it.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to the locker room. Coach Z is sitting on the bench in front of a TV dinner on a tray.}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Ooh, Salisbury steak! Ring ring! ''{Picks up a phone with frayed wires, not attached to anything}'' Hellor? Ooh, Mom! Well, a very cheery Decemberween to you too! ''{shakes his head}'' Oh, Dad, it's you! Sorry about that. Yes, sir, I cooked a turkey, with the gravied yams and stuffinged ham. ''{camera zooms out to show entire bench}'' No, I'm not alone. Yes, this phone is plugged in.<br /> <br /> ''{The lights suddenly go out.}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Aww, crackles. ''{Dejectedly}'' I forgot to pay my bills again this year.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut back to the concession stand. Homestar pulls out a banana with an arrow through it.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey Bubs, check this out. For the Poopsmith who has everything. <br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' You give me anything in that box, you'll be gettin' a kick in the skull with a ribbon on it. <br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Right right. Ribbons. Bubs loves ribbons. Lessee... Strong Sad. Don't need to worry about Strong Sad.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to an old fashioned bathtub with chains holding the boards covering the top in place.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{singing, from locked inside the tub}'' One night in Bangkok and the rough got rougher...<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to Marzipan's house, where she is sitting on the couch sporting Decemberween lights in her hair.}''<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' If Homestar doesn't get here soon with my present, ''{camera zooms in}'' I'm gonna cook his goose!<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar runs in and trips, falling flat on his face in front of Marzipan. He gets up in a daze and hands Marzipan a wrapped present.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{groggily}'' Happy Decemberween, Marzi-man.<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar falls back on the floor and Marzipan opens the present.}''<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{sounding disappointed}'' Wire cutters? <br /> <br /> ''{Strong Bad walks in.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Foolish Homestar. Decemberween is not about getting people presents. It's about getting people ''good'' presents! ''Good presents!'' Not this last-minute discount crap you're trying to foist on us!<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{interrupting}'' Oh, Homestar, it's perfect!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER AND STRONG BAD:''' ''{both of them in unison}'' It is? ''{Homestar shakes his head a few times in disbelief of his blind luck}''<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' This is just what I need to free the baby seals from the crab traps down at the wharfs. ''{Marzipan walks off, singing to herself}'' Free the baby seals...<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Well, shut my mouth.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well well, Strong-o Bad-o. Looks like the ol' captain of the team still has what it takes.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{brandishing his Grabbo Arm}'' Oh yeah? Well, the Grabbo Arm has what it takes, ''{extends the the Grabbo Arm}'' and what it takes is Marzipan's purse.<br /> <br /> ''{The Grabbo Arm comes back with Marzipan's purse.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' No skin off my back.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, thanks! Have a nice last seven minutes of Decemberween, Homestar. ''{pokes Homestar with Marzipan's purse}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{increduously}'' There's only seven minutes left of Decemberween?! Oh, crap! I forgot to get everyone presents!<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar runs off again.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Ugh, it goes on and on like this.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{off-camera}'' Oh, crap! There's only seven minutes left of Decemberween?!<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar Runner runs back behind Strong Bad.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Seriously. Like until New Year's...<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{off-camera}'' Oh, crap! there's only seven minutes left of...<br /> <br /> ''{scene fades to black.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' I didn't know we had any wharfs. <br /> <br /> ''{The camera returns to Homestar's clock, which displays the number of minutes remaining until Decemberween/Christmas ends. The back button appears.}''<br /> <br /> == Easter Eggs ==<br /> *Click on "Homestar's Clock" at the end to see what happened to the three main characters left out of this toon.<br /> :''{The King of Town, the Poopsmith, and Pom Pom sit around a table in the King of Town's castle with two cans, one labeled "gravied yams" and the other labeled "stuffinged ham" on the table. On the wall behind them is a sign that reads, "Left Out Characters' Support Group & Buffet."}''<br /> :'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Pass the gravied yams, please. And don't bogart that stuffinged ham neither!<br /> <br /> == Fun Facts ==<br /> ===Explanations===<br /> [[Image:SevenMinutes.PNG|thumb|AW CRAP!! Only 7 minutes left of Decemberween! You never bought any presents!]]<br /> *At the end, [[Homestar's Clock]] originally counted down the minutes remaining of Decemberween 2004. It works by counting down the minutes until the end of the 25th of the current month (based on the local computer system's clock).<br /> **When the counter reaches zero, the clock reads, "It's over" (a [[Teen Girl Squad]] reference). It is possible to skip to the "It's over" message by choosing "Play" from the Flash menu while viewing the SWF directly.<br /> **After the 25th of the month, Homestar's Clock seems to run forward, counting the minutes since that day passed. The tens spot of the seconds is empty, and when the counter reaches 10 each minute, the tens are displayed in the ones spot, and ones are not displayed until the next minute.<br /> <br /> ===Trivia===<br /> *This is the third appearance of [[Cinnamon|cinnamon]]. Homestar's cinnamon beard, however, was first seen in [[caper]].<br /> *Strong Bad's Grabbo Arm makes the [[Sound Effects|same noises]] as Homestar's tricked-out propeller cap in [[car]].<br /> *The Cheat is dressed as Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer.<br /> *This episode marks Homsar's first appearance in a Decemberween toon.<br /> *Homestar's comment to Strong Bad referring to himself as the "ol' captain of the team" is also referenced in [[The Brothers Chaps|the Brothers Chaps']] [[Wired News Radio Interview - 23 June 2003|interview]] with [http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,59261,00.html Wired].<br /> *This is the first main Decemberween toon that does not end in a multi-character holiday greeting.<br /> *The sound quality is higher than normal, resulting in crisper sound compared to other toons on the site.<br /> <br /> ===Remarks===<br /> *If Homestar slept through December 24 (as many assume after watching this toon), he could not have changed his tear-away calendar to the 25th. <br /> *This is one of the few times we see the inside of [[Homestar's House]], and the very first time we see his bedroom. The outside looks as it did in [[The Best Decemberween Ever]], which is different from how it looked in older toons, such as [[The Reddest Radish]] and [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD]].<br /> *Homestar's alarm clock here is different from the alarm clock in [[radio]]. It was apparently made just for him, as it says "Homestar's Clock" right on it.<br /> **It is unclear how Homestar's clock could even differentiate between 10:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. &mdash; usually digital clocks have a light or indicator when it is night time, but Homestar's clock has none.<br /> *Homestar does not sleep in the Race Car Bed he bought with Marzipan's credit card in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 10.2]].<br /> *When Homestar runs from Homsar he doesn't leave any tracks.<br /> *Homestar takes about 15 minutes to go from his house to Bubs' Concession Stand; he woke up at 10, and then told Bubs that he had an 1 hour and 45 minutes left when he got to the concession stand.<br /> *Coach Z's "I forgot to pay my bills again this year" used to be "I forgot to pay my electric bill again this year".<br /> *Coach Z pronounces Decemberween correctly this year, as opposed to his pronunciation in The Best Decemberween Ever, in which he sings "Decemberwoyrn".<br /> *Apparently [[Free Country, USA]] has wharfs, although Strong Bad didn't know this either, despite him appearing in a boat in both [[lures & jigs]] and [[montage]].<br /> <br /> ===Inside References===<br /> *Coach Z's [[Disconnected Telephones|disconnected telephone]] resembles the one from [[replacement]].<br /> *Strong Sad is locked in the bathtub—something he said his brothers do to him every Decemberween, according to [[The Best Decemberween Ever]].<br /> *Also, some of the scenes in this toon are similar to those in The Best Decemberween Ever. They include:<br /> **The plot of the toon, which is to get someone a Decemberween present (though in The Best Decemberween Ever he only focused on Strong Bad, here, Homestar focuses on everyone).<br /> **Homestar emerging from his home (albeit naked, which was not the case with The Best Decemberween Ever).<br /> **The long shot of Homestar running (but in this case, it's night instead of day).<br /> **Homestar approaching [[Bubs' Concession Stand]].<br /> *One of the [[Pizza|pizza]] boxes on the floor is a box of [[Bubs' Old Pizza]].<br /> <br /> ===Real-World References===<br /> *[[Homestar Runner's Sleepwear|The piano T-shirt]] Homestar is wearing in bed is essentially the same as that worn by [[Wikipedia:Michael Jackson|Michael Jackson]] in bed in the video for [[Wikipedia:Beat It|"Beat It"]]. This includes the inaccurate depiction of a keyboard, showing both single black keys and three white keys in a row.<br /> *The toy seen briefly on the floor in the Strongs' living room is a [[The Strongs' Capsela|Capsela]] set, a module-based construction set which can be used to make portable fans, real floating boats, all manner of wheel and caterpillar-driven vehicles, and even remote-controlled robots. It appears as though their set in particular was used to make a boat (the "balloon" capsules on the bottom are a dead giveaway).<br /> *Strong Mad's rock is a reference to "pet rocks" which were popular in the mid-'70s.<br /> *Homsar's "Alms for the pudgy" request, and Baked Beans bucket/complimentary spit-bucket is a take on the [[Wikipedia:Salvation Army|Salvation Army]]'s annual Christmas drives.<br /> *While locked in the bathtub, Strong Sad sings a misquoted lyric from the song "[[Wikipedia:One Night in Bangkok|One Night in Bangkok]]," from the musical "''[[Wikipedia:Chess_(musical)|Chess]]''". It became a number one hit for Murray Head in 1984, and was composed and written by Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus of ABBA and Tim Rice. The correct quotes are "One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster," "One night in Bangkok makes the hard man humble," and "One night in Bangkok makes the tough guys tumble."<br /> *The term "bogart", meaning to hold out on, refers to the great [[Wikipedia:Humphrey Bogart|Humphrey Bogart]], to describe the way he would hold out on tapping his cigarette ash by instead letting it build up and fall on its own.<br /> <br /> == DVD Version ==<br /> *Homestar's clock at the end of the toon says "e:nd" instead of having the countdown.<br /> *The DVD version features creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.<br /> <br /> === Commentary Transcript ===<br /> ('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' This is the&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Well if it isn't Mike Chapman!<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' That's ''you''.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Oh.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Who are ''you''?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' I'm...Matt.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I wish I had that alarm clock.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah.

Uh.. wha&mdash;?! That's seems irreverent, Mike! "Blah blah blah"?! ''{Mike laughs}'' That's not the way that it should go! Look, some Capsela.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Ohhhh.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' And&mdash; And a penguins jersey, maybe.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' That's a good...

Stony Tony?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Tony&mdash; Tony Stony.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Tony Stony?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah... I don't like that, uh, bell sound. I can't believe that we couldn't find a bell to record to make that bell noise, Mike.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' It didn't bother me, Matt.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' It bothers me to this day.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{long pause; breathes a sigh}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ...Say a few syllables, Mike.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Ehh, it's uh&mdash; that's a very ''soothing'' scene...<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' The stars...<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Homestar sliding softly through the snow.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' The wind sound... yeah...<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' "Why would I be closed"?!<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Well... because it's almost Decemberween, Bubs.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' It's almost ''over'', in fact.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah!<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' It ''is'' Decemberween. ''{pause; makes snow-squish sound effects with his mouth}''<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Was that you&mdash;?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah. It might be ''you'' actually.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I doubt that.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{pause}'' Uh oh. I have a feeling that we're going to see something depressing with Coach Z, Mike.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Shh! ''{pauses and laughs a little as Coach Z talks on the phone.}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' So... do you think that he has parents? I hope that he has parents.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I don't think he parents like him very mu&mdash; They wouldn't&mdash; they wouldn't call him.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' So he has to have imaginary conversations with his parents on holidays. ''{Coach Z says the phone is plugged in; both laugh}'' He has to argue with them too!<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' It's sort of like when Homestar is controlling Carboard Marzi. ''{laughs}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah. He's doing a very accurate job&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' &mdash;including the arguments, and... ''{laughs as Homestar holds up his present to The Poopsmith}'' I think I'm going to give you a banana with an arrow through it for the next Christmas, Mike.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Until I watched this cartoon, if you had given me that, I would not have known what it was from.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Oh, so we see that he actually gets locked&mdash; that's how you get locked in the bathtub, Mike.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Which one was that in?

I'd like&mdash; I'd like to see that happen...in real life.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I used to have a set of Christmas lights that were battery operated.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' And you'd put them in the back of the windshield of the Madstyle&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' That's right.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' &mdash;I remember that.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' You might be able to pull that off if you had a big ol' ponytail like you ''used'' to.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Me?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Hey guys, Matt used to have a big long hair ponytail!<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' The ponytail wasn't very long, actually.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Well...<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' The hair was long, but the ponytail was meager. ''{long pause}'' So Homestar gets redeemed; he kind of wins in this one. It's been a while, it seems like. ''{pause}'' I'd like a Grabbo-arm, too. I like that little purse! A little, uh... ''statchbook''.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Is that what they call those?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah!<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Is that what all the sweater girls are calling them these days?

<p>Nickpick97: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:cellphone.png|thumb|right|"Pom Pom just wrote, directed, and distributed a movie on his cell phone!"]]<br /> The only known '''Cell Phone''' in [[Free Country, USA]] belongs to [[Pom Pom]]. When [[The Cheat]] missed a meeting at [[The Stick]], [[Strong Bad]] borrowed Pom Pom's cell to make a few calls to determine the whereabouts of his little yellow lackey. The last known number for his cell was (123) [[Wikipedia:555 telephone number|555]]-8307. [[Coach Z]] claims to own a cell phone in [[These peoples try to fade me]]. [[Stinkoman]] also [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 8.0#Message 3|claims]] to have a cell phone, but he's presumably not from Free Country, USA. In [[technology]], Pom Pom has a Palm [[Wikipedia:Treo 650|Treo 650]] cell phone. [[Strong Bad]] was seen in [[portrait]] holding a very large cell phone, but whether he owns it or not is unknown. It is very odd compared to traditional cell phone having all of its buttons on the top portion of the phone. Also, most phones typically have more than 9 buttons (ex. Call, Hang up, Camera, Menu, or even the 0 button).<br /> <br /> A [[Powered By The Cheat]] cell phone appears in [[Labor Dabor]].<br /> <br /> ==Appearances==<br /> <br /> *'''Debut:''' [[Where's The Cheat?]]<br /> *Email [[action figure]]<br /> *Pom Pom's [[Pom Pom#Character Video Transcript|Character Video]]<br /> *Email [[technology]]<br /> *[[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 13.2]] (mentioned)<br /> <br /> [[Category:Electronics]]</div>

He wears underwear and a shirt, unlike his grown-up counterpart. His head is more circular than when he grows up.

He apparently also holds the record for the "[[Diapers|Dirtiest Diapey]]" according to [[record book]].<br /> <br /> Lil' Strong Bad seemed to be on much more pleasant terms with Strong Sad than his grownup counterpart, although in [[origins]], it was implied that Strong Sad got his prominent belly button thanks to Lil' Strong Bad and a [[Strong Bad's Drill|power drill]].<br /> <br /> In the sbemail [[the chair]], Lil Strong Bad had a paper route.

In another example of the many rock references of the Homestar Runner world, Strong Bad may also be referencing Peter Criss of KISS fame, who was known by the stagename of Catman.<br /> *"Da boyz" and "da hood" are references to [[Wikipedia: Boyz N Da Hood|Boyz N Da Hood]].<br /> <br /> ===Some Items for Sale===<br /> *Except for the candle, the egg carton, Aunt Gert, and unpriced items, all prices refer to the number of the email in which the item first appeared.<br /> <br /> ====On Display====<br /> * Cheat Commandos [[Cheap_as_Free#Toys|Troop Transport]] - $93 <br /> ** The price refers to [[army]], the email which introduced the [[Cheat Commandos]]. <br /> * [[Old-Timey Strong Bad]]'s Telegramophone from [[50 emails]] - $50<br /> * [[Eggs]] from [[morning routine]] - $54<br /> * Box labeled "riverquest safariventure" from [[theme park]] - $1.04<br /> * [[Ab-Abber 2000]] from [[suntan]] - $77<br /> * [[Heavy Lourde]] from [[homsar]] - $2<br /> * "[[Words I Probably Said]]" tape from [[autobiography]] - $67<br /> * [[Swiss Cake Rolls]] - $50 <br /> ** The price indicates [[50 emails]], but Swiss Cake Rolls actually appeared in [[invisibility]] - which was Strong Bad Email #41, before 50 emails.<br /> * [['Lectric Boots]] from [[extra plug]] - $116<br /> * "sb_snailmail.exe" [[The Mailbox|mailbox]] from [[other days]] - $111<br /> * Tandy 400 [[Floppy Disk Container]], which first appeared in [[little animal]] (disk showing is "typing tutor jr") - $23<br /> * [[Strong Bad's Fondue Pot]] from [[50 emails]] - $50<br /> * [[Gooblies]] from [[suntan]] - $77<br /> * [[The Cloitsterizer]] from [[suntan]]: "Great for Graw Mad" - $77<br /> * Keg of [[Cold One]]s: "Great for Baby!" - $38<br /> ** This particular keg has not been seen before, but it is similar in shape to the [[Melonade]] keg seen in [[helium]] and other places.<br /> * Cheat Commandos [[Cheap_as_Free#Toys|Helicopter]]: "Great for Baby!" - $93<br /> ** The price refers to [[army]], the email which introduced The Cheat Commandos.<br /> * Marzipan's Answering Machine, the [[PhoneTime XL8]] - $129<br /> ** The price refers to the current email, which is the first one to have the PhoneTime XL8 outside an Easter egg.<br /> * Purple Candle from [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] - $00<br /> ** The price is zero since the candle had never been seen in an email before this one.<br /> * Egg Carton from [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] - $EGG<br /> <br /> ====Hidden Items==== <br /> * A bag of [[Potate]] chips (price not given)<br /> ** Appears out of frame in the Flash file when Bubs is haggling with Strong Bad<br /> * "[[More Like You Write A Book About Come-back Jokes, NERD!!]]" book from [[50 emails]]: "Great for Baby!" - $50<br /> ** Appears out of frame in the swf file when Bubs is haggling with Strong Bad<br /> ** Presumably bought by Coach Z, as it appears in his arms later in the cartoon<br /> <br /> ====Sold Items====<br /> * "Aunt Gert" pantyhose doll - $.25<br /> ** Sold to Bubs for 22½<small>&cent;</small><br /> * "Canopy's" can of [[Peas|peas]] - $99<br /> ** Presumably bought by Senor Cardgage for "Helvetica".<br /> ** The price refers to [[different town]] (e-mail 99), in which [[The King of Town]] was buried alive in a box of peas.<br /> ** The can may also be the one the Cheat opened in [[The Cheatar]].<br /> * [[Clock Radio]] from [[12:00]]: "Great for Baby!"

A knotted rope is dangling from above.}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Come on, Strong Sad, I knows you can do it! Just cram a little oom-pah down your pants, and you'll be up that rope in no times!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Look, I'm willing to ignore that ''{winces}'' "oom-pah down my pants" comment, ''{looks back at Coach Z}'' but I'm more concerned ''{looks up at the rope}'' with what that rope is attached to.<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Never you mind! Just get to climbin'!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Coach Z, ropes are for dopes!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' What's that jargle? Scripture? You quotin' Scripture?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' No, it's a quote from Saddy Dumpington, the legendary folk hero I made up.<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Sounds kinda like a terlet if ya ask me.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to the cover of a book entitled "The Folky Tale of Saddy Dumpington", with a picture of Saddy on it.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Hark to the Folky Tale of Saddy Dumpington...<br /> <br /> ''{The picture of Saddy on the cover turns around, and then turns back to his normal position. The cover slides off the screen, revealing a field with a young girl standing in it. Saddy Dumpington is walking over to her.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ...who traveled the lands, spreading good cheer and smiles to all who would listen.<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' I just saw a baby chick choke on a worm. They both died! Isn't that great?<br /> <br /> ''{The girl starts crying. Cut to another area of the field, with a tree stump and squirrel in it.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' Oh, I eat squirrels all the time. I made some soup out of the rest of your family just last night! Isn't that great?<br /> <br /> ''{The squirrel starts crying. Cut to the field at sunset. Saddy is walking along.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' But he wasn't very good at spreading cheer or smiles, just sadness and misery.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to a town.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' ''{playing his washboard}'' Fear not, townsfolk! Famine is no doubt right 'round the corner. And gross bugs and rats sleep in our beds! Isn't that great?!<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to a shot of Saddy and the Mayor standing in the town square.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So one day, the Mayor ordered&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover; interrupting}'' Oh, I know this part! <br /> <br /> ''{The Mayor and Saddy look around in confusion}'' <br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then the mayor ordered the very talented Dancing Brothers&mdash; <br /> <br /> ''{A paper falls from the top of the frame, reading "THE DANCING BROTHERS". Saddy and the Mayor each walk off either side of the screen as the three Dancing Brothers slide to the center.}'' <br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' &mdash;to perform at the annual "Rocks and Brown Grass" Festival! <br /> <br /> ''{Motown-style music starts playing, and the brothers start dancing}''<br /> <br /> '''SINGERS:''' Gonna have a good time tonight, gonna have a good time tonight!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' Look at 'em go!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z AND SINGERS:''' Gonna have a good time tonight, gonna have a real ''{Coach Z doesn't say "real"}'' good time toni&mdash; <br /> <br /> ''{The music stops abruptly with a record scratch}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Dancing Brothers' shoes broke and they stopped dancing immediately! <br /> <br /> ''{The shoes break, and a cane drags the brothers off-screen. Saddy and the Mayor fly back onto the screen from the left.}'' <br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Mayor then ordered Saddy Dumpington to leave town and never speak to its citizens again.<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' But, Mr. Mayor, sometimes, dogs get so hungry, they eat their own tails! Isn't that&mdash;<br /> <br /> ''{The mayor, now very angry, kicks Saddy. Cut to a hill far outside of the town.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' &mdash;greeeeeeaaaaattt! <br /> <br /> ''{Saddy flies out of the town and falls tenderly on the hill. Fade to a forest. Saddy is walking through it.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So Saddy Dumpington walked through the forest, befriending all manner of critters 'long the way.<br /> <br /> ''{Saddy picks up a cricket.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' Cheer up, Mr. Cricket. You have no central nervous system, so it won't hurt when I yank your legs off! Isn't that great?<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to another area of the woods, where Saddy is talking to a fox.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' Hello, Fox Joe!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover; interrupting}'' Have you met my good friends, The Dancing Brothers?<br /> <br /> ''{Saddy looks around. The piece of paper falls from the top of the screen again, and The Dancing Brothers fall into the frame, dancing.}'' <br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Glenn", "Martbell", and the "Killer Dynamo"! ''{music begins playing.}''<br /> <br /> '''SINGERS:''' Gonna have a good time tonight! Gonna have a good time toni&mdash; <br /> <br /> ''{Again, the music scratches to a halt. The Dancing Brothers look dejected}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' No! The Dancing Brothers are allergic to foxes, and they sneeze themselves into comas! <br /> <br /> ''{The Brothers start sneezing}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh, jeez, that's harsh!<br /> <br /> ''{We cut to a pond. Saddy is nearby.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then one day, ol' Dumps here got a message from town! <br /> <br /> ''{An arrow with a message attached flies into a tree. Cut to a close-up of the letter. As the message is spoken, the words appear on the page.}''<br /> <br /> <blockquote style="width:300px">Saddy,<br><br /> We haven't stopped laughing<br><br /> since you left. No one can get any<br><br /> work done.

I've never thought of such a thing. <br /> <br /> ''{An odd-looking purple snake with a tuft of hair on its head slithers toward Saddy.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' Um... would weird snakes be considered depressing?<br /> <br /> ''{cut to an evening shot of the field. Saddy is silhouetted against the background and appears to be wearing an odd tail.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So he strolled into town, dressed as a weird snake.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to the town. Saddy Dumpington is wearing a costume reminiscent of the weird snake he found by the pond. All the townsfolk are laughing.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' I'm a weird, weird snake, everyone. My name is Weird Snake Joe! Isn't that miserable and depressing?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' But instead of getting depressed, everyone laughed even harder until they passed out for the rest of their lives. <br /> <br /> ''{The townsfolk all collapse, and one person falls from above the frame. Cut back to the Athletic Field, the rope and Coach Z still present.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' And that brings me to this rope. I'm gonna pass out if I have to climb this rope!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Man, Strong Sad, that's a real load right there. A ''real load!'' That kind of thing might work on Coach X, or Coach Y, ''{loudly}'' ''but you're dealing with Coach dang Z!!'' Now get up that rope!!! <br /> <br /> ''{Strong Sad moans and passes out}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Oh, jeez! I killed the Elephant Man!! Oh, this is bad! This is rrrl bad, man! What would the Dancin' Brothers do in a sitch'ation like this?<br /> <br /> ''{thinks for a moment and then starts dancing and singing}'' <br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Oh, gonna have a good time tonight! Gonna have a good time tonight! ''{dances off the screen.}'' Gonna have a good time...<br /> <br /> ''{Strong Sad opens his eyes and turns his head toward the camera}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{grinning slightly}'' Works every time!<br /> <br /> '''SINGERS:''' ''{along with the music that starts playing}'' Gonna have a real good, good, good, good, good time tonight!<br /> <br /> ''{Strong Sad pretends to go back into unconsciousness. The screen darkens, and "end." appears, accompanied by Saddy Dumpington's head.}''<br /> <br /> == Easter Eggs ==<br /> * Click on the rope at the end to see what is really holding it up.<br /> :''{Homsar is upside down at the top of the screen. He has the rope in his mouth.}''<br /> :'''HOMSAR:'''  ''{tries to talk with his mouth full; his words are unintelligible, sounding slightly like "I'm a very good man"; meanwhile, his hat floats in a rectangular path off his head and comes back}''<br /> <br /> * Click on Strong Sad's head to see a scene with Bubs at his Concession Stand.<br /> :''{Cut to Bubs at his concession stand.}''<br /> :'''BUBS:''' ''{on the phone}'' What? No! Of course you can't come here! You need to get out of town, man! Lay low for a while! Yeah, all right, all right, you is my dog, too. Now get movin'!<br /> :'''COACH Z:''' ''{popping in from the top of the stand}'' Who was that?<br /> :<br /> :'''BUBS:''' Ah, that was just Homestar. Now keep outta sight!<br /> :'''COACH Z:''' ''{makes a panicked noise and hides again}''<br /> <br /> ==Fun Facts==<br /> <br /> ===Explanations===<br /> *[[Wikipedia:Vertebrates|Vertebrates]] possess a [[Wikipedia:central nervous system|central nervous system]] consisting of the brain and spinal cord. [[Wikipedia:Invertebrate|Invertebrates]] (including [[Wikipedia:insects|insects]] like [[Wikipedia:Cricket (insect)|crickets]]) possess a nervous system, but do not have a spinal cord.<br /> <br /> ===Trivia===<br /> *This is the first toon that features members of the main cast but in which neither [[Homestar Runner]] nor [[Strong Bad]] makes an appearance. However, it appears that Bubs spoke with Homestar on the phone.<br /> *The paper texture is made using a low-opacity bitmap overlay that covers the entire window. The drawings themselves are not bitmaps.<br /> <br /> ===Remarks===<br /> *Strong Sad says that "Ropes are for dopes" is a quote from the legendary folk hero he made up, but neither ropes nor dopes are mentioned in the story itself, or the blog entry where Saddy Dumpington first appeared.<br /> *In the scene where the townsfolk laugh until they pass out, the man in the front left looks identical to the man in the back right, only mirrored. Once everyone passes out, a man falls from above who looks identical to the person in the back left.<br /> <br /> ===Goofs===<br /> [[Image:folky tale goof.PNG|thumb|Look closely...|120px]]<br /> *When Strong Sad falls down at the end of the toon, the shape created and overlaid on the background to show his indention in the grass does not quite match the background. The green and the white are both slightly brighter, and the seam in the white circle doesn't line up.<br /> <br /> ===Inside References===<br /> *Saddy Dumpington was introduced in [[Strong Sad's Lament]].<br /> *Coach Z thinks he [[Death#Strong Sad's Imagined Death|killed Strong Sad]].<br /> *Listening to Bubs's end of the phone conversation, Homestar apparently calls Bubs his "dog." He refers to other characters this way in [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]] and [[Biz Cas Fri 1]].<br /> <br /> ===Real-World References===<br /> *The "Rocks and Brown Grass" Festival is probably a pun on the musical genres "[[Wikipedia:Rock (music)|rock]]" and "[[Wikipedia:Bluegrass music|bluegrass]]," though it may also be a reference to the [http://www.grassrootsfest.org/ GrassRoots Festival of Music and Dance].<br /> *Coach Z calling Strong Sad the Elephant Man is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Joseph Merrick|Joseph Merrick]] (1862&ndash;1890), a person from the late 19th century known for being deformed as a result of either [[Wikipedia:Proteus syndrome|Proteus syndrome]] or [[Wikipedia:Neurofibromatosis|Neurofibromatosis]].<br /> <br /> == DVD Version ==<br /> *The DVD version features creators' commentary.

A knotted rope is dangling from above.}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Come on, Strong Sad, I knows you can do it! Just cram a little oom-pah down your pants, and you'll be up that rope in no times!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Look, I'm willing to ignore that ''{winces}'' "oom-pah down my pants" comment, ''{looks back at Coach Z}'' but I'm more concerned ''{looks up at the rope}'' with what that rope is attached to.<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Never you mind! Just get to climbin'!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Coach Z, ropes are for dopes!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' What's that jargle? Scripture? You quotin' Scripture?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' No, it's a quote from Saddy Dumpington, the legendary folk hero I made up.<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Sounds kinda like a terlet if ya ask me.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to the cover of a book entitled "The Folky Tale of Saddy Dumpington", with a picture of Saddy on it.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Hark to the Folky Tale of Saddy Dumpington...<br /> <br /> ''{The picture of Saddy on the cover turns around, and then turns back to his normal position. The cover slides off the screen, revealing a field with a young girl standing in it. Saddy Dumpington is walking over to her.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ...who traveled the lands, spreading good cheer and smiles to all who would listen.<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' I just saw a baby chick choke on a worm. They both died! Isn't that great?<br /> <br /> ''{The girl starts crying. Cut to another area of the field, with a tree stump and squirrel in it.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' Oh, I eat squirrels all the time. I made some soup out of the rest of your family just last night! Isn't that great?<br /> <br /> ''{The squirrel starts crying. Cut to the field at sunset. Saddy is walking along.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' But he wasn't very good at spreading cheer or smiles, just sadness and misery.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to a town.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' ''{playing his washboard}'' Fear not, townsfolk! Famine is no doubt right 'round the corner. And gross bugs and rats sleep in our beds! Isn't that great?!<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to a shot of Saddy and the Mayor standing in the town square.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So one day, the Mayor ordered&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover; interrupting}'' Oh, I know this part! <br /> <br /> ''{The Mayor and Saddy look around in confusion}'' <br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then the mayor ordered the very talented Dancing Brothers&mdash; <br /> <br /> ''{A paper falls from the top of the frame, reading "THE DANCING BROTHERS". Saddy and the Mayor each walk off either side of the screen as the three Dancing Brothers slide to the center.}'' <br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' &mdash;to perform at the annual "Rocks and Brown Grass" Festival! <br /> <br /> ''{Motown-style music starts playing, and the brothers start dancing}''<br /> <br /> '''SINGERS:''' Gonna have a good time tonight, gonna have a good time tonight!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' Look at 'em go!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z AND SINGERS:''' Gonna have a good time tonight, gonna have a real ''{Coach Z doesn't say "real"}'' good time toni&mdash; <br /> <br /> ''{The music stops abruptly with a record scratch}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Dancing Brothers' shoes broke and they stopped dancing immediately! <br /> <br /> ''{The shoes break, and a cane drags the brothers off-screen. Saddy and the Mayor fly back onto the screen from the left.}'' <br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Mayor then ordered Saddy Dumpington to leave town and never speak to its citizens again.<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' But, Mr. Mayor, sometimes, dogs get so hungry, they eat their own tails! Isn't that&mdash;<br /> <br /> ''{The mayor, now very angry, kicks Saddy. Cut to a hill far outside of the town.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' &mdash;greeeeeeaaaaattt! <br /> <br /> ''{Saddy flies out of the town and falls tenderly on the hill. Fade to a forest. Saddy is walking through it.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So Saddy Dumpington walked through the forest, befriending all manner of critters 'long the way.<br /> <br /> ''{Saddy picks up a cricket.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' Cheer up, Mr. Cricket. You have no central nervous system, so it won't hurt when I yank your legs off! Isn't that great?<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to another area of the woods, where Saddy is talking to a fox.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' Hello, Fox Joe!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover; interrupting}'' Have you met my good friends, The Dancing Brothers?<br /> <br /> ''{Saddy looks around. The piece of paper falls from the top of the screen again, and The Dancing Brothers fall into the frame, dancing.}'' <br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' "Glenn", "Martbell", and the "Killer Dynamo"! ''{music begins playing.}''<br /> <br /> '''SINGERS:''' Gonna have a good time tonight! Gonna have a good time toni&mdash; <br /> <br /> ''{Again, the music scratches to a halt. The Dancing Brothers look dejected}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' No! The Dancing Brothers are allergic to foxes, and they sneeze themselves into comas! <br /> <br /> ''{The Brothers start sneezing}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh, jeez, that's harsh!<br /> <br /> ''{We cut to a pond. Saddy is nearby.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then one day, ol' Dumps here got a message from town! <br /> <br /> ''{An arrow with a message attached flies into a tree. Cut to a close-up of the letter. As the message is spoken, the words appear on the page.}''<br /> <br /> <blockquote style="width:300px">Saddy,<br><br /> We haven't stopped laughing<br><br /> since you left. No one can get any<br><br /> work done. We need you to come<br><br /> say something miserable and<br><br /> depressing so we can have our<br><br /> lives back.<br><br /> <br /> <div align="right">Talk atcha later,<br>The Townsfolk</div></blockquote><br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' Something miserable and depressing? I've never thought of such a thing. <br /> <br /> ''{An odd-looking purple snake with a tuft of hair on its head slithers toward Saddy.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' Um... would weird snakes be considered depressing?<br /> <br /> ''{cut to an evening shot of the field. Saddy is silhouetted against the background and appears to be wearing an odd tail.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So he strolled into town, dressed as a weird snake.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to the town. Saddy Dumpington is wearing a costume reminiscent of the weird snake he found by the pond. All the townsfolk are laughing.}''<br /> <br /> '''SADDY DUMPINGTON:''' I'm a weird, weird snake, everyone. My name is Weird Snake Joe! Isn't that miserable and depressing?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' But instead of getting depressed, everyone laughed even harder until they passed out for the rest of their lives. <br /> <br /> ''{The townsfolk all collapse, and one person falls from above the frame. Cut back to the Athletic Field, the rope and Coach Z still present.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' And that brings me to this rope. I'm gonna pass out if I have to climb this rope!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Man, Strong Sad, that's a real load right there. A ''real load!'' That kind of thing might work on Coach X, or Coach Y, ''{loudly}'' ''but you're dealing with Coach dang Z!!'' Now get up that rope!!! <br /> <br /> ''{Strong Sad moans and passes out}''<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Oh, jeez! I killed the Elephant Man!! Oh, this is bad! This is rrrl bad, man! What would the Dancin' Brothers do in a sitch'ation like this?<br /> <br /> ''{thinks for a moment and then starts dancing and singing}'' <br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Oh, gonna have a good time tonight! Gonna have a good time tonight! ''{dances off the screen.}'' Gonna have a good time...<br /> <br /> ''{Strong Sad opens his eyes and turns his head toward the camera}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{grinning slightly}'' Works every time!<br /> <br /> '''SINGERS:''' ''{along with the music that starts playing}'' Gonna have a real good, good, good, good, good time tonight!<br /> <br /> ''{Strong Sad pretends to go back into unconsciousness. The screen darkens, and "end." appears, accompanied by Saddy Dumpington's head.}''<br /> <br /> == Easter Eggs ==<br /> * Click on the rope at the end to see what is really holding it up.<br /> :''{Homsar is upside down at the top of the screen. He has the rope in his mouth.}''<br /> :'''HOMSAR:'''  ''{tries to talk with his mouth full; his words are unintelligible, soundong slightly like "I'm a very good man"; meanwhile, his hat floats in a rectangular path off his head and comes back}''<br /> <br /> * Click on Strong Sad's head to see a scene with Bubs at his Concession Stand.<br /> :''{Cut to Bubs at his concession stand.}''<br /> :'''BUBS:''' ''{on the phone}'' What? No! Of course you can't come here! You need to get out of town, man! Lay low for a while! Yeah, all right, all right, you is my dog, too. Now get movin'!<br /> :'''COACH Z:''' ''{popping in from the top of the stand}'' Who was that?<br /> :<br /> :'''BUBS:''' Ah, that was just Homestar. Now keep outta sight!<br /> :'''COACH Z:''' ''{makes a panicked noise and hides again}''<br /> <br /> ==Fun Facts==<br /> <br /> ===Explanations===<br /> *[[Wikipedia:Vertebrates|Vertebrates]] possess a [[Wikipedia:central nervous system|central nervous system]] consisting of the brain and spinal cord. [[Wikipedia:Invertebrate|Invertebrates]] (including [[Wikipedia:insects|insects]] like [[Wikipedia:Cricket (insect)|crickets]]) possess a nervous system, but do not have a spinal cord.<br /> <br /> ===Trivia===<br /> *This is the first toon that features members of the main cast but in which neither [[Homestar Runner]] nor [[Strong Bad]] makes an appearance. However, it appears that Bubs spoke with Homestar on the phone.<br /> *The paper texture is made using a low-opacity bitmap overlay that covers the entire window. The drawings themselves are not bitmaps.<br /> <br /> ===Remarks===<br /> *Strong Sad says that "Ropes are for dopes" is a quote from the legendary folk hero he made up, but neither ropes nor dopes are mentioned in the story itself, or the blog entry where Saddy Dumpington first appeared.<br /> *In the scene where the townsfolk laugh until they pass out, the man in the front left looks identical to the man in the back right, only mirrored. Once everyone passes out, a man falls from above who looks identical to the person in the back left.<br /> <br /> ===Goofs===<br /> [[Image:folky tale goof.PNG|thumb|Look closely...|120px]]<br /> *When Strong Sad falls down at the end of the toon, the shape created and overlaid on the background to show his indention in the grass does not quite match the background. The green and the white are both slightly brighter, and the seam in the white circle doesn't line up.<br /> <br /> ===Inside References===<br /> *Saddy Dumpington was introduced in [[Strong Sad's Lament]].<br /> *Coach Z thinks he [[Death#Strong Sad's Imagined Death|killed Strong Sad]].<br /> *Listening to Bubs's end of the phone conversation, Homestar apparently calls Bubs his "dog." He refers to other characters this way in [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]] and [[Biz Cas Fri 1]].<br /> <br /> ===Real-World References===<br /> *The "Rocks and Brown Grass" Festival is probably a pun on the musical genres "[[Wikipedia:Rock (music)|rock]]" and "[[Wikipedia:Bluegrass music|bluegrass]]," though it may also be a reference to the [http://www.grassrootsfest.org/ GrassRoots Festival of Music and Dance].<br /> *Coach Z calling Strong Sad the Elephant Man is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Joseph Merrick|Joseph Merrick]] (1862&ndash;1890), a person from the late 19th century known for being deformed as a result of either [[Wikipedia:Proteus syndrome|Proteus syndrome]] or [[Wikipedia:Neurofibromatosis|Neurofibromatosis]].<br /> <br /> == DVD Version ==<br /> *The DVD version features creators' commentary.

The clay dinosaur enters. Strong Mad makes various noises to go along with the action. Doug the Dino roars. The green cylinder flips over like a Slinky and a smiling face appears on it. Suddenly, Doug the Dino attacks it and it spills clay [[Blood|blood]]. While Doug is eating the green cylinder, a tape dispenser can be seen for a few frames. The yellow cylinder appears to flee as Doug licks his lips. A clay toilet enters and Doug presses the flush lever. The seat lifts and a red appendage appears out of the toilet, grasps Doug by the face, and pulls him in. The green cylinder "sits up" and smiles and Strong Mad's hand can be seen leaning on the table for a few frames.}''<br /> <br /> ''{Cut back to Compy 386.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Y'see? Misguided direction, no comedic timing, and the script is riddled with gaping plot holes. ''{not typing}'' And finally, ''{typing}'' Fact 6: Have you seen his computer?!?<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to Strong Mad's room, where Strong Mad has decorated a paper bag to look like [[Tandy 400]] (with the word "DISK" on the screen) and an up-turned cardboard box to look like Strong Bad's [[Floppy Disk Container]] (which says "disks").}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG MAD:''' E-COMMERCE! E-BUSINESS!!<br /> <br /> ''{Cut back to Compy 386.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' So let's review. Fact 1: Ehgh--<br /> <br /> ''{Pull out to Homestar Runner sitting on the desk, facing away from Strong Bad.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{speaking quietly}'' I want my own cartoon, Strong Bad.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' What? I'm over here!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{still quietly}'' Oh. ''{turns to face Strong Bad}'' I want my own cartoon, Pom Pom.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Homestar, a cartoon starring you would be horrible. It'd just be you saying "Sewiously" all the time and acting like a moron...all the time.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{normally}'' No, no! Not no more! I got a new catchphrase!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' No.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You wanna hear it?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' No!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'd be all the time sayin' "That's bupkis!" ''{whispering}'' Oh, sorry. "That's bupkis!" <br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' What are you whispering for?<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{whispering}'' Be''cause!'' Baby Strong Sad is ''sleeping!'' <br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Now, you see this disgusting little chit-chat we're having here? This is what your cartoon would be like.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Then it'd be a number one hit! ''{singing}'' And that's the end of my show! DONK!<br /> <br /> ''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Hey!<br /> <br /> == Easter Eggs ==<br /> *Clicking on "Script" shows the entire script for Strong Mad’s epic film, '[[Doug the Dino]]'.<br /> <blockquote>int: dinosaur - day<br><br /> go dougie!!<br><br /> RAWR!!<br><br /> toilet. (drawing of a [[Toilets|toilet]])</blockquote><br /> *Click on Homestar's star at the end to see Homestar's commercial break bumper.<br /> :''{A screen featuring Homestar holding a popsicle and the words "We'll Be Right Back!" appears}''<br /> :'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{singing, voiceover}'' Homestar Runner will be right right back!<br><br /> :Homestar Runner will be right right back!<br><br /> :Homestar Runner will be right right back!<br><br /> :We're coming right back after these messages!<br><br /> :We're coming right back after these messageeeees...<br /> <br /> == Fun Facts ==<br /> ===Explanations===<br /> * "Bupkis" is a Yiddish word used in English to mean 'nothing' or 'almost nothing'. Sample usage: "I work here for him ten hours a day, all week, and what does he give me? Bupkis!"<br /> ===Trivia===<br /> *This is [[The Brothers Chaps]]' [[Stop Motion|claymation]] debut.<br /> *The [[Cardboard Boxes|box]] on Strong Mad's desk that says disks on it also reads 'NOT CAR PARTS' upside down.<br /> *The email used to have a glitch in it. If you clicked the eject button on the video recorder during 'Doug the Dino', it would bring you back to the loading screen and freeze there. This may be due to [[The VCR|the VCR]] being copied from the "Characters" menu. (On that screen, the eject button pops out Homsar's tape.) The glitch has been removed, though. The eject button is now unclickable. <br /> *The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#thexder|thexder]]".<br /> <br /> ===Remarks===<br /> *If Strong Bad's measurements are correct, Strong Mad is 88 inches, or 7'4" (2.26 meters) tall and wide. However, The Cheat implied in [[i she be]] that Strong Mad was 6 feet tall. Meanwhile, according to a [[HR:smsticker.html|page]] that is no longer on the main site, Strong Mad weighs 900 lbs and is eight feet three inches tall. Of course, since it is known that Strong Mad is not actually a square; in fact, he's actually about 7.25% taller than he is wide. So, based on the dimensions given, if he were 88" wide, he would be approximately 95" tall. On the other hand, if he were 88" tall, he would only be about 82" wide. Finally, if he were 6' (72") tall as mentioned earlier, he would be a mere 67" wide.<br /> **Plus, these measurements do not correspond with the measurements of the other characters.<br /> ** In [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]], Strong Bad's and Strong Mad's weight combined is 1,000,000 Pounds. If Strong Bad weighs 150 pounds, then Strong Mad weighs 999,850 pounds! This contradicts Strong Bad's quote saying that he is 900 pounds. (Of course, this idea was an early one and is probably no longer true) <br /> *Strong Mad seems to be making "Doug the Dino" in the scene of him in his room, as there is a toy dinosaur and a green cylinder shaped block on his table.<br /> *Homestar Runner has claimed that "That's bupkis!" is his new [[Catch Phrases|catch phrase]] (to replace "[[Seriously]]..."), but he hasn't said it since this email debuted.<br /> <br /> ===Goofs===<br /> *When Homestar appears, there are no contrast buttons on the Compy.<br /> <br /> ===Inside References===<br /> *The TV set that plays "Doug The Dino" is the [[Telebision]] from the [[Old Telebision Toons Menu]]. <br /> *[[The VCR]] (in which the display is still blinking 12:00) is the same one that appears on the "Characters" menu and the emails [[12:00]] and [[dangeresque 3]].<br /> *Strong Bad calls Strong Mad "Graw Mad". According to the commentary for [[car]], this is what TBC's niece used to call Strong Mad (she also called [[Strong Sad]] "Gron Sad", a name which Strong Bad used in [[car]]).<br /> *"Doug The Dino" could be a reference to Strong Mad's managing to say "[[Douglas]]" in an Easter egg for the email [[sibbie]], after Strong Bad tried to get him to say it in [[cheat talk]].<br /> <br /> ===Real-World References===<br /> *The way Strong Bad says Jess G.OH's last name is a reference to [[Wikipedia:The Simpsons|The Simpsons]], in which one of [[Wikipedia:Homer Simpson|Homer Simpson's]] catch phrases is "[[Wikipedia:D'oh!|D'oh!]]"<br /> *The tune Homestar sings to in the Easter egg is the same tune as the intermission theme from [[Wikipedia:Pac-Man|Pac-Man]].<br /> *The ''"We'll Be Right Back!"'' song and screen are in the style of cartoon shows of the 1970s, '80s, and '90s, which frequently included lead-outs and lead-ins with freeze-frames (or animations) of the characters along with quirky jingles about the show returning.<br /> <br /> ===Fast Forward===<br /> *The background drum beat which is heard during the Cubeland scene would be reused in [[Bug In Mouth Disease]].<br /> *"Graw Mad" is again mentioned in [[garage sale]] and [[keep cool]], while "Baby Strong Sad" makes an appearance in [[highschool]].<br /> *Homestar's popsicle from the Easter Egg is reused for the ice cream bars in [[Bug In Mouth Disease]].<br /> *The Brothers Chaps used Claymation again in [[death metal]] to animate [[Taranchula|Taranchula's]] music video.<br /> *"Doug the Dino" would later be mentioned in the short [[Sbemail 150?!?]].<br /> <br /> ==DVD Version==<br /> *The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.<br /> ===Commentary Transcript===<br /> ('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]], [[Marzipan]])<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' OK, guys. It's Matt, Mike, and Marzipan. And, this is the one called "the facts." It's all about brother Strong Mad.<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' It is about brother Strong Mad. And he is actually my favorite brother.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Really? So you like him best?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Seems you get along with Strong Sad pretty well.

Would you like to visit that place Marzipan?<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{gasps}'' It looks like my freezer.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Does it?!<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' You got some.

See there? Strong Mad's making some Claymation there. Just like Mike and I used to as young boys.<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Really?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Strong Mad's got some sweet wallpaper in his bedroom.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah, I want that in my bedroom.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' What do you think of that wallpaper up there, Marzipan?<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' I like wallpaper. I prefer wallpaper over paint jobs.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Really?<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Yes.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' It's much harder to put up, though.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I don't think you have wallpaper in your house. I think you have paint.<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Well, guess what? I wish I had wallpaper. ''{long pause}''. Oooh, that's cool. That's on your desk, Mike. ''{referring to where Strong Mad's Claymation takes place}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' So this, um, so this Claymation movie is pretty much ninety percent of Claymation movies Mike and I made.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah, Matt's a&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' It usually involved a toilet. A dinosaur.<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Who made this?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Matt did. Matt was a very good&mdash; He's an award-winning Claymation animator in nineteen eighty...eight?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Nine.

It was internationally recognized.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{holding back laughter}'' As being ''important''?<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Well, that and&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' What was the award itself? Was it a medal? Or a trophy?<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' It was a virtual award.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{changing the subject}'' It looks like Strong Bad and Homestar are really hashing out some issues here. Sitting down and spending some quality time&mdash;<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah, he likes to perch on the end of desks and things. Doesn't he look cute?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' He does look kinda cute like that.<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{voluptuously}'' I think he has a good body.<br /> <br /> ''{Mike starts to laugh}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' What?

<p>Nickpick97: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:Swiss Cake Rolls.PNG|thumb|These things are bad for you!]]<br /> '''Swiss Cake Rolls''' are frosted, cylindrical chocolate cakes with a cream swirl inside. As such, they are a favorite snack food in [[Free Country, USA]] and in the real world, too. Sometimes they are treated as characters.<br /> <br /> Although other companies make a similar product (e.g. [http://www.hostesscakes.com/hohos.asp Hostess HoHo]), [http://www.littledebbie.com/products/SwissCake.asp Little Debbie Snacks] makes a cake with the name Swiss Cake Roll.<br /> <br /> ==Appearances==<br /> *[[Strong Bad Email#Trivia|Strong Bad Email Automatic Response]] &mdash; Back when [[Strong Bad Email]] was relatively new, whenever one emailed [[Strong Bad]], one got an automatic response, in which Strong Bad said something about reading the email after finishing off some Swiss Cake Rolls.<br /> *Email [[invisibility]] &mdash; Strong Bad steals a bunch of these from [[Bubs' Concession Stand]] while invisible.
