Strong Bad has to fight off hordes of The Cheat-lovers.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[The Cheat]]

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:''' Chee-wit! Chee-wit! Chee-wi-chee-wi-email.

''{reading}''

<pre>Dear Strong Bad,

How come you never let The Cheat
answer any emails?

Lasko
Milwaukee, WI</pre>

''{Strong Bad says "Lasko" low, long, and drawn-out and says "WI" as "Wisaconasin"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Well, Lasko ''{said as before}'', The Cheat is not very popular and he never really gets many emails and um, to tell you the truth, I don't even think he has a computer. ''{stops typing}'' Alright, next email.

''{He makes a vocal sound effect as the next email scrolls up (henceforth "vocal sfx"), and starts reading.}''

<pre>Hey Strong Bad!

i love The Cheat! can you ask him for
me if he is taken? because i like him
WAY better then you

-Nobuyoshi Shigeta, New York</pre>

''{Strong Bad stops reading at "i like him WAY better then-"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Augh, seen enough of that one.

''{vocal sfx; reading}''

<pre>Dear Strong Bad,

You and the Cheat are the only reason
I go on this website. Actually just
the Cheat, but you are ok too.

Love,
Mito</pre>

''{Strong Bad stops reading for a second after the first sentence, and says "Oh, thank you!" His mood sours for the rest of the email, however, and Strong Bad says "Dumpo" instead of "Mito"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Geez, all these Cheat emails. Moving on. ''{The screen flashes "MOVING ON!!" with the "deleted" noise and the blue screen. We zoom out to see The Cheat watching the email on [[Tangerine Dreams]] in the computer room. He gets progressively angrier with each email Strong Bad deletes.}''

''{vocal sfx; reading}''

<pre>Dear Strong Bad,
I think The Cheat is hot. Could
you hook us up?

Haelee,
Utah</pre>

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's funny, Haelee. I think The Cheat is deleted. BAAH! ''{DELETED!! reading}''

<pre>Hey Strong Bad

My girlfriend thinks The Cheat
is cute.

Tyler,
California</pre>

''{The Cheat storms off in a fit. Cut back to just Strong Bad at Compy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Come on, people! He's not even that cute! He looks like a...a cheese! ''{The Cheat walks up to him}'' Or maybe an anvil. ''{The Cheat squeaks angrily.}'' Uhhh...which are two of the finest things in life. A cheese...or an anvil. Hey The Cheat! Just, uh, talking you up to one of the fans here! ''{The Cheat squeaks}'' Oh. So you been...watching the email, huh? ''{The Cheat squeaks}'' No, I haven't been holding out on you! I made all those emails up! Uh... most of the emails you get are not that friendly, lemme tell you. If you just turn around for a second I could show you! ''{pause, then Strong Bad tapes a piece of paper to Compy saying "the cheat" covering the place where Strong Bad's name usually appears}'' HUTTAH!

''{reading}''

<pre>DEAR the cheat
WHERE THE HECK IS YOU SHIRT???
YOUR GLOVES ARE STUPID!

I HATE YOU,
HOLMES, California</pre>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{to The Cheat}'' See? This guy doesn't like that you don't have a shirt on, and he thinks your gloves are stupid! And then there's this one:

''{reading}''

<pre>Dear the cheat

how do you type with boxing
gloves on your hands?

derek</pre>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{to The Cheat}'' I've been wondering about that, too! What is with you and those boxing gloves anyway?

''{The Cheat squeaks and a black cloud of smoke escapes from his head. He walks away.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' So okay bye! Whooh. I think I handled that pretty well! That coulda been...awkward. I deserve a reward. ''{he runs take-a-break.exe, which is a screen saver of a beach}'' Aahhh... so relaxing. Fshhhhhhhhh! Fshhhhhhhhh! Listen to the waves, man. ''{a bird flaps past}'' Oh, hello my wing�d friend!

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*At the very end while Strong Bad is watching "Take-a-break.exe" you can click on the bird to download "take-a-break.exe" for Windows or Mac.

== Fun Facts ==

===Explanations===
*The email is called huttah! because that's what Strong Bad says when he slaps The Cheat's name onto the Compy.
===Trivia===
*With one exception, this is the only time that the Compy uses the proper "[[DELETED]]!!!" screen on a specific email. (It was being used more generally in [[unused emails]] and [[replacement]], and all other instances on the Compy are things like "MATT!!" and "NOTTA CHANCE!!") The exception is in [[2 emails]], but there it is not obvious or part of the plot of the email.
*This is the only email with an exclamation mark in the title.
===Goofs===
*When it shows the scene with Strong Bad and The Cheat the Compy has no contrast buttons.

== DVD Version ==
*You obviously can't download take-a-break.exe, but you can click on a hidden Strong Bad icon in the bottom-left corner of the Compy 386 screen to get a fullscreen demo of Take A Break.

[[Image:111snailmail.png|thumb|LET THE SNAIL MAIL BURN!!!]]

'''StrongBadEmail #111'''

Brian asks what Strong Bad does on all the other days of the week.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[Strong Mad]], [[Coach Z]], [[The Cheat]], [[Homestar Runner]], [[Strong Sad]] (Easter Egg)

== Transcript ==

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{talking}'' I got an email in my pocket, and I think it's starting to melt. Again with the

''{reading email}''

<pre>dear strong bad,
what do you do on all the other days
of the week?
sincerely,
brian holmes CA</pre>

''{Strong Bad reads the name as "B. Ryan Holmes, certified arborist")

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing and speaking like a robot}''Good question, Brian. I am going to answer this email like a robot. Don't you think this is a great idea? ''{normal voice}'' Yeah, sorry, me neither. OK, other days o' the week. Let's see...

''{A calendar appears with a heading "A Month" and weeks starting on Monday. On Monday is written "checka my e-mail.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}''On Tuesdays, I check my snail mail.

''{"checka my snail mail" gets written in on Tuesday. Cut to Strong Bad at a mailbox that reads "sb_snailmail.exe"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I got a snail mail in my pocket, and I think it's starting to melt.

''{he opens his letter and reads it}''

<pre>Dear Mr. Bad,
This constitutes your final warning.
Please remit payment of three(3)
dollars and sixty-two(62) cents or
you will be turned over to a "cut off
your toes" -style collections agency.

Swarthily,
Bubs' Concession Stand</pre>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{speaking sarcastically}'' Oh, no, final warning. Is there nothing I can do to dissuade you? Like maybe give you a ride in my BMW?!?

''{Strong Bad pulls out the BMW lighter and burns the paper, laughing. He then looks around.}''WA HA HA HA!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Um... where's my house?

''{Cut back to the calendar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then to better help folks over the hump, on Wednesdays I give free motivational lectures.

''{"give lecture" is written in on Wednesday. Cut to the chalkboard with Coach Z and Strong Mad listening to Strong Bad}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You gots to look inside yourself! Positate the negative. When life throws pies at you, you make yourself a tall, cool glass of piemonade.

'''COACH Z:''' I'm a new man!

'''STRONG MAD:''' I'M THE HUMP!

''{cut back to the calendar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Due to a prior arrest, Thursdays are community service days, so me and the old Cheatasaurus head down to Strong Badia and give the place a firm scrubbin'.

''{"community service" gets written in for Thursday. Cut to Strong Badia, where Strong Bad is vacuuming the dirt and The Cheat is washing the Tire}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You know what I always say, The Cheat. Stay smart, vacuum... dirt.

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Don't forget to wash where the sun don't shine.

''{cut back to the calendar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Then there's Business Casual Fridays, or as we say around the office, Biz Cas Fri. ''{"biz cas fri" appears on the Friday box}'' You know, because we have to abreeve everything.

''{cut to the office}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' That's the day we all wear the free polo shirts we got from various software companies.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, man. Did you play Online Gaming last night? No, yeah, no? I did. I got so many frags.

''{cut back to the calendar}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' On Saturday I certainly don't wake up at 6 A.M., put on a Speedo, and go to swim practice. ''{"NOT swim practice" gets written in the Saturday box}'' No, no, definitely not Speedo. But I do attend: {''a flyer for Battle Axe Lessons appears onscreen}'' BATTLE AXE LESSONS AT THE REC CENTER, with my teacher Dolph Hauldhagen, The Instruc-TOR! And of course, Sunday is the OTHER day I check my email, for our Eastern European viewers across the pond.

''{"checka my eastern european emails" gets written in for Sunday. Cut to Strong Bad sitting at a gray computer with the word "BLOCK" in the bottom-left corner}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I got a Polish e-mail in my pocket, and I think it's starting to melt.

''{reading, translator speaks over Strong Bad in badly pronounced Polish: Silny Złe: Prosze rozwiazywac sznurowadło z styl głowe. Januś, Polska}''

<pre>Dear Strong Bad:
Please to be untieing that shoelace on
the back of your head?

Janus
Poland</pre>

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Untie my shoelace, eh Janus? Your 
mother is the speed limit. 
Your aspirin, 
Strong Bad

''{Translator continues: Rozwiazywac sznurowadło, eh Janek? Twoja matka jest ograniczenia predkosci. Z aspriną, Silny Złe}''

''{cut back to Compy 386}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's pretty much my week. Now time for a refreshing glass of piemonade, or as we say around the office, p-nade.

''{Strong Bad gets up and leaves. The Paper comes down}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*Click on "brian holmes CA" after Strong Bad says "Certified Arborist" to see B. Ryan Holmes' business card.
**The card reads: "B. Ryan Holmes, Certified Arborist. Phone:555-XYLM Mobile:coming soon" It has pictures of green trees and says "I think it has to do with trees!" in cursive on the bottom.
*At the end, click on "my week" to see [[Strong Sad]] waking [[Strong Bad]] up for swim practice.
*Also at the end click on "piemonade," to see an advertisement for (Cool, Refreshing...) [[Piemonade]] (!!).

== Fun Facts ==
*When Strong Bad dismisses the email's text to make room for his new text, as he does often, it makes the standard typing sound effects instead of the hard "enter" hitting sound.
*The calendar starts on Monday, as per some European countries. United States calendars usually start on Sunday.
*Strong Bad's advice to "make Piemonade" is a reference to the saying "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade".
*When Strong Sad is waking up Strong Bad for swim practice, he mumbles various things, ranging from "I'll kill you" to the name of the classic [[Wikipedia:Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] [[Wikipedia:CRPG|RPG]], ''[[Wikipedia:Chrono Trigger|Chrono Trigger]]''.
**This is the third time that Strong Bad has talked in his sleep about Super Nintendo games. The last two times, for the record, were in [[morning routine]] and [[cheatday]]. I suppose this could qualify as some sort of running joke now...
***I'd have to say this is a running joke after three instances. The ''[[Wikipedia:Super Contra|Super Contra]]'' comment could have just been a reference to the ''[[Wikipedia:Bomberman|Super Bomberman]]'' one, but now this goes backwards twice.
**Judging from the muffled sounds Strong Bad makes during this, the "I'll kill you" is likely directed to Magus, a villain in the game (who can actually be one of your party members if you play things out right).
*[[The Office]] where "biz cas fri" takes place is the same as in [[dullard]] and the [[Senor Mortgage]] short, and the conversation is very reminiscient of that from 'dullard'.
*The room in which Strong Bad gives the "Motivational Speech" is reminiscent of the room in which he tries to teach people how to pronounce [[fhqwhgads]] in the email entitled [[sibbie]].
*When Strong Bad mentions having to do community service, it is likely a reference to the [[Strong Bad Is In Jail Cartoon]].
*On biz cas fri, Homestar Runner wears a shirt labelled 'Diskettes Etc.', while Strong Bad's has 'Micro Palace'.
*While talking about online gaming, Homestar Runner says, "I got so many frags". It seems he's been playing numerous [[Wikipedia:First-person shooter|first-person shooters]], in which a "frag" is a kill.
*When Homestar says "so many frags" and is looking to the left, "Diskettes Etc." appears backwards for a split second.
*The name of his other computer, "[[Block]]", is a reference to the Soviet Bloc - those eastern European nations which were under communist government.
*The translation method used for the "Eastern European Email" is one actually used on Polish television. The original sound will be overlaid by one or more translators rather than dubbed.
*In Message 2 of [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 11.2]] Łukasz speaks in Polish. This is the only other time we've heard Polish.
*The bit where Strong Bad starts talking like a robot is a reference to the spastic kid in the documentary "Spellbound," who says the same thing during an interview segment and starts talking like a weird robot.
*The Battle Axe flyer reads:

stunt double

2004-11-08T23:26:38Z

Phil Errup: /* Fun Facts */

[[Image:sbemail80.png|thumb|Dangeresque and Renaldo]]

'''StrongBadEmail #80'''

Louis wonders if [[Strong Bad]] has ever used a stunt double. [[Strong Bad]] responds by showing clips from his latest movie, "Dangeresque 2:''This Time, It's Not Dangeresque 1''".

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]]/[[Dangeresque]], [[Coach Z]]/[[Renaldo]], [[Strong Mad]]/[[Killingyouguy]] (possibly), [[Strong Sad]] (stunt double), [[Homestar Runner]], [[Bubs]]\[[Unnamed Bad Guy]], [[The Cheat]], [[Marzipan (character)|Marzipan]]/[[Cutesy Buttons]]

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD''': ''{singing}'' Oh, I took the email to the market, and I bought it some kind of fish sauce.

''{reading}''

<pre>Hello Strong Bad,
I'm a long time watcher first time
writer. I was wondering if you ever
use a stunt double.

Your whatever,
Louis</pre>

''{Strong Bad says "Ooh, an LTWFTW." after reading "long time watcher first time writer", reads "I was wondering" as "I was just wondering" and says "Louis" as "Louise. Lewis. Louie.")

'''STRONG BAD''': {''typing''} A stunt double?!? No way, Lucy! Only big wusses and lesser wimps use stunt doubles. I've always done my own stunt work. Check me out in this summer blockbuster we just finished. It's called ''Dangeresque 2: This time, it's Not Dangeresque 1''.

''{a cue card is held up with the title: "Dangeresque II: This Time, It's Not Dangeresque 1". Then a newspaper is shown. The headline has been covered with a piece of paper that says: "MISSING TAPE STOLEN. Dangeresque seen on the case. For real." Cut to an office scene with Strong Bad, wearing sunglasses, and Coach Z, wearing a turban.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': It's not going to be easy finding that missing tape.

'''COACH Z''': Well, Dangeresque, if anyone can do it, I'm sure you can.

'''STRONG BAD''': You're right, Renaldo. But the elevator's broken in this building. So I'm gonna have to jump! ''{makes a jumping motion}''

''{cuts to Strong Sad, wearing a paper bag on his head and oven mitts, standing on top of a ladder on the roof of Bubs' Concession Stand. He is pushed off and falls into a wading pool marked "shark pond". He walks out, and the shot is then edited so that it is Strong Bad walking away.}''

''{cuts to Strong Bad's basement, where Strong Bad and Strong Mad are standing.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Either give me that tape, or punch me in the face.

''{Strong Mad punches. Edits to Strong Sad, who gets punched in the face and goes flying back. We hear a crashing sound. Cuts to the field. Strong Bad is holding a mirror. Behind him are the missing tape and Homestar.}''

'''STRONG BAD''': Where is that tape?

''{Homestar realizes he can be seen and moves away.}''

''{cuts to Bubs holding The Cheat.}''

'''BUBS''': Welcome to oblivion, Danger-skew! ''{pulls a lever}''

''{cuts to Strong Bad standing in the field, then edits to Strong Sad. A [[Heavy Lourde]] falls on Strong Sad.}''

'''STRONG SAD''': It's what I like to call a broken neck.

''{cuts to Strong Bad and Marzipan in the field.}''

'''MARZIPAN''': I won't watch you die, Dangeresque.

'''STRONG BAD''': Don't worry, Cutesy Buttons. Tonight, dying's not on the menu. So I'm gonna have to jump!

''{Strong Sad is once again pushed off of Bub's Concession Stand, this time into a wading pool marked "Pie Factory". Edits to Strong Bad walking away. Cuts back to the office}''

'''COACH Z''': Sounds pretty dangerous.

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{turns around}'' No. Sounds... Dangeresque.

''{cuts back to the Compy}''

'''STRONG BAD''': ''{typing}'' Alright, you can all return from the edge of your seats. Wow, watching that gives me goosebumps every time, man. I mean, the stunts I do are so... done by me. And remember to watch out in June 2004 for "Dangerseque 3: The Criminal Projective". ''{a logo with this title appears}'' In 3D! ''{"3D" is added to the logo and the screen becomes drawn in red and blue lines, like a 3D movie.}''

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

==Easter Eggs==
*At the very end be sure have your 3D glasses ready and click on the big "3D" part of the logo.
*After the 3D spiel, be sure to click on the words "watch out" for some more 3D madness!

== Fun Facts ==
*The theme from the summer blockbuster "Dangeresque 2: This Time It's Not Dangereque 1" (instrumental bits of which can be heard in the email) is featured on the [[Strong Bad Sings CD]].
*The text of "The Local Newspapes" that appears in the beginning reads:
:''The Lemmer was treated for polar bear related injuries shortly after the 4th inning shenanigans. Officials say the bear 'wandered on down' from the North Pole with rich, creamy nougat on its mind. Nay-sayers have dismissed this as dismissable citing, "I think it might be just an inflatable polar bear, actually." The young gun was unavailable for a Young Guns 2 screening that took place in my basement a few months ago and I haven't forgiven him since. Seriously, Mark, I don't know what's up. We used to be so close and now you're acting all''
:*This is accompanied by a picture of some Atlanta Braves players on a baseball field with a polar bear digitally added in the background.
*"The Lemmer" in the above article is a reference to Mark [[LEMKE]].
*When Strong Sad falls into the wading pool the second time, watch the label very closely. It says "pie factory", but just for a split second it will say "shark pond" and then back to "pie factory".
*The Newspaper says "Newspapes".
*Strong Sad is wearing the oven mitts from the Yello Dello cartoon and [[The Best Decemberween Ever]] (Homestar quickly tosses them away before finding the Deep Impact DVD).
*The baseball field in the newspaper photo is Fenway Park.

Phil Errup: /* Fun Facts */

The Cheat gets the hiccups on Halloween and Strong Bad sets out to cure him.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[Strong Mad]], [[The Cheat]], [[Coach Z]], [[Strong Sad]], [[Bubs]], [[The King Of Town]], [[Pom Pom]], [[The Poopsmith]], [[Homsar (character) |Homsar]] (easter egg), [[Marzipan (character) |Marzipan]], [[Homestar Runner]]

'''Page Title:''' A Boogidy, Boogidy

== Transcript ==
''{Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat are walking along in regular clothing during the daytime. Then, a nighttime background scrolls onscreen, stitched right onto the daytime background. As the trio cross the [[Wikipedia:Terminator|terminator]] into nighttime, they get changed in to their costumes (with a slight slithering noise) as the opening credits roll; "Halloween Fairstival" / Spoken By Matt and Missy / Maken By Mike and Matt / Here go the first scene...}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Alright boys, it's Halloween night, what we gonna do?

''{The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Come again?

''{Again, The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What's wrong there, Philly Cheat-steak? You got-a some Hiccups?

''{Again, The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Well you picked the perfect night to have them. We shouldn't have any trouble scaring the hiccups out of you on Halloween. Let's see what's going on tonight. There's gotta be something scary.

''{Zoom in on poster with "Coach Z's Haunted Locka-room" adorned on it}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooh, that's perfect! I've seen some stuff in that locker room that would scare more than just the hiccups out of you, let me tell ya. Let's check it on out!

''{Cut to a haunted locker room with a dark screen and green gas along the floor}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You scared yet, The Cheat? What about that drippy towel over there? That's pretty scary, huh? ''{in a scared voice}'' Oh no, please don't drip on me! You smell like shin guards!

''{Coach Z appears}''

'''COACH Z:''' ''{in a frightening voice}'' Crackity towel! Tommy John surgery!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{clears throat}'' Coach, we're trying to scare the hiccups out of The Cheat. You got anything that's not just gross and moist?

'''COACH Z:''' What could be scarier than Blue Star Ointment?! Ooooooh! (pronouced "aawooooeeeeorrrrre")

'''STRONG BAD:''' Alright, this has gone from weird and kinda gross to a serious health risk. Let's bolt.

'''COACH Z:''' Hey! You guys didn't even get your candy out of the toilet there! ''{pronounces "toilet" as "terlet"}''

''{Cut to Strong Sad under a banner that says "Strong Sad's Haunted Haikus"}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{speaking a Haiku}'' 
This night. Black as pitch. 
Doom from inside me wells up. 
Pray I don't get egged. 

'''STRONG BAD:''' I don't know or care what a Hiookoo is. But we need to scare The Cheat.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ooh, I got just the thing! ''{speaking another Haiku}'' 
Rapping at the door. 
Fills up aged pillow case. 
So sick of Smarties. 
''{"aged" is pronounced with two syllables to make the second line have a total of seven}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, I get it, let me try one! ''{speaking his own Haiku}'' 
A butt for a face. 
Little brother: dork, dork, dork. 
Stay out of my room. 
I'm sorry, The Cheat, looks like we got to find some other way to scare the ever-loving hiccups out of you.

'''STRONG SAD:''' You don't SCARE the hiccups out of somebody! You gotta laugh 'em out!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! That sounds like a segue!

''{Segue to Bubs, against the side wall of his concession stand, under a neon sign reading "Bubs' Ha-Ha-Halloween comedy club"}''

'''BUBS:''' I mean, seriously, people, it's the 90s! Am I right? Am I left? ''{Strong Mad laughs}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Say, Bubs, your comedy club bears a striking resemblance to the side of your concession stand.

'''BUBS:''' Aww, that's rich. You know something else bears a striking resemblance to something else? Women can't drive!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Awwwww, let's get out here, my bad pennies.

''{Strong Bad and The Cheat leave}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' THIS GUY CRACKS ME UP!

'''BUBS:''' And, airline food! I mean, humminah-what? ''{Bubs hits his head with his microphone. Strong Mad laughs again}''

''{cut to sign 'The KOT's verry Halloween related turducken bob'; pan to the King of Town with three turduckens in mashed potatoes}''

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Hurry, hurry, hurry! Before I eat it all! Step right up and get your Halloween on! Bobbin' for Turduckens!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Dear Oldie, Shut up! Your pal, Strong Bad.

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Howdy, boys. Either of you got a wicked mashed potato Jones?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! Mashed Potato Jones. Now there's a fella I'd like to meet!

''{The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh yeah, we need to get rid of The Cheat's hiccups. You got any grody old man remedies?

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Sure! You gotta feed and feed the hiccups until they mature into liver failure! And then...

'''STRONG BAD:''' We're not trying to kill The Cheat! Don't ya have anything that could just scare him?

'''KING OF TOWN:''' I have this x-ray of my heart.

''{The King of Town holds up an x-ray showing a ham where his heart should be, labelled 'General Caveat Lower Eclusal'}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's not scary. That's... promising! Come on, The Cheat. Let's let the King die in peace.

''{The King of Town's mask spins into a sad face, like the character he's dressed up as}''

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Yes. Let's.

''{Cut to Pom Pom and the Poopsmith who are holding a silent auction}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What's up, no-talkers? Keep on... no-talking.

''{This is only if you clicked on the POOPSMITH'S belt: HOMSAR pops out of the sign and stands upside down on the screen}''
'''HOMSAR:''' DaAaAa... I blew it, man! I lose my touch.
''{He waddles around the screen once, while The Poopsmith's and Pom-Pom's eyes follow him}''

''{Cut to Marzipan standing with a guitar next to a stall of fruit}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What is this mess?

'''MARZIPAN:''' Ready, everybody? A-one, and a-two, and a-here we go! ''{Marzipan sings}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat, this is it! This is the most terrifying thing I have ever seen!

''{The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, man!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Good job, The Cheat! Now try harmonizing with the butternut squashes! ''{sings}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' This might not get rid of the hiccups, but it's about to give me the throw-ups!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh yeah! Lay it on me, Mr. Corn!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{appears from behind a tree, on which is a sign reading 'back alley dealings'}'' Hey guys, hey guys, hey guys guys guys! You guys...errrr...need some witches' brew? I got some right here. Two jars. Cold, hot, fresh witches' brew! Only ten bucks a pop! Side effects include wine, women, and song. ''{He holds up two jars labelled 'brüe'}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Witches' brew, eh? All right, we'll take one jar!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Here you go.

''{The Cheat drinks it and hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, crap! He's still got 'em!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That'll be ten bucks! Please drive around to the second window!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Aww, okay... But, uhhh, can you pay us the ten bucks tomorrow?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Nah, I'm good for it. I'll pay you the ten bucks right now!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, The Cheat, I'll give you ten bucks if you stop hiccupping!

''{The Cheat tucks the cash into his costume and stops}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooh! Hey, Homestar! I'll give you ten bucks if you stop breathing!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, you got a deal! ''{Homestar tries for a couple of seconds}'' Strong Bad... I couldn't do it... for very long...

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'd try again. Ten is a lot of bucks.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Right right, a lot of ducks!

*The page title is a reference to [[Malloween Commercial]].
*Shin Guards are used to protect shins(duh)while sparring in Karate and Kikboxing type sports.
*Although [[Witches' Brew|Witches' Br�e]] is a frequently-mentioned inside joke, this is the first time we've actually seen it and been informed of its supposed effects. Also, the product's misspelling in this particular cartoon may be a reference to the rock band [[Wikipedia:Motley Crue|M�tley Cr�e]].
*When The Cheat drinks the jar of Witches' Br�e, the jar is still full.
*The tune that Marzipan hums, and that plays under the opening credits and in most scene changes, is somewhat similar to the refrain from the song "I'm Your Captain" by the 1970s American rock & roll band [[Wikipedia:Grand Funk Railroad|Grand Funk Railroad]].

*The King Of Town is dressed as The Mayor of Halloweentown, from the 1993 Tim Burton film [http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0107688/ The Nightmare Before Christmas]. (As is the ability to turn his whole head around and turn it into a sad face.)

*When the orange sign first appears, it reads:
<pre>Halloween Festival
featuring:
Coach Z's Haunted
Lockerroom
Haunted Haikus
w/ Strong Sad
Bobbing for Apples
AND SO MUCH MORE!!!</pre>
:However, when the sign appears again before zooming in on the Coach Z part, it reads:
<pre>Halloween Fairstival
featuring:
Coach Z's Haunted
Locka-Room
Haunted Haikus
w/ Strong Sad
Bobbing for Apples("apples" is crossed out)
AND SO MUCH MORE!!!</pre>
*The "locka-room" may be a reference to [[Teen Girl Squad]], wherein phrases such as "Unda-Wears" appear.
*Strong Bad's series of belching sounds may be a reference to [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 7]], in specific the part in which the large wrestler lands upon little [[Cheerleader]], punctuated by several of Strong Bad's belching noises.
*Blue Star Ointment is a product used for ringworm and jock itch. It's frequently seen on the US version game show [[Wikipedia:The Price is Right|The Price is Right]].
*At the end when you click on Homestar he says, "So I've got that going for me. Which is nice." This line is spoken by Carl Spackler, the groundskeeper in the film [http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0080487/ Caddyshack], whom he is dressed as. This line also appears in [[Peasant's Quest]] if you try to make Rather Dashing eat or drink.
*"Grody old man remedies" may also refer to Peasant's Quest, in which the innkeeper has a closet full of "old man rub".
*Homestar's breath-holding skill was first seen on the [http://homestarrunner.com/yearbook.html yearbook] characters page.

*When Strong Bad talks to the King of Town he does it in the style of a Strong Bad Email.
*Homsar is dressed as Kumar, a character in the Wes Anderson film [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115734/ Bottle Rocket].
*"Strong Bad-as Cesar Romero-as The Joker" is a reference to [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]], where [[The Goblin]]'s costume is, Strong Bad, as the Bee.
*When Bubs says "Humminama-What?",that is a reference to [[Under Construction]], where [[Stinkoman]] says something similar.
*The candles next to Strong Sad when he does his Haikus are from the scene in [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]]
*The sign at the auction where we see the Poopsmith and Pom Pom says "CREEPING silent DEATH auction" which could be reference to Metallica's "Creeping Death", which was a reference to one of the Plagues in The Bible.
*The "[[Wikipedia:Tommy John surgery|Tommy John Surgery]]" that Coach Z mentioned is a surgery performed (mainly on pitchers) to replace a torn elbow ligament with one from another part of the body.
*Strong Bad is actually wearing purple boxing gloves, which is something he complained about in [[New Boots]].
*In the haunted locka-room, there is a sign in the top-left corner that says, "WEAR FLIP FLOPS." This may be a reference to the in-joke "[[Wear a Bikini!|WEAR A BIKINI!]]" Or it may just be because it's good policy to wear flip flops in public showers.
*This is more nitpicky than anything else, but if Strong Bad wanted to scare the hiccups out of The Cheat, why didn't he just use the bear-shark from Strongbadia? That always terrifys the little yellow squeaky guy to no end.
*Without the green hair and red crap. Strong Bad looks like the picture of Strong Bad with all white stuff on his face in the museum section of H*R website.
*The sign in the locka-room that reads "Don't go into the marsh!!!!" refers to a similar sign in the Monster Plantation ride at Six Flags Over Georgia.
*The KOT's sign originally spelled "Turducken" as "Terducken". This was fixed a few days after the cartoon was released.
*The reference to "my bad pennies" is, of couse, the name for the Joker's henchmen (high school dropouts) on the [http://www.clivebanks.co.uk/Batman/Jokergoestoschool.htm 60's television series]
*When the the gang leaves Coach Z's "locka-room" the puddle under the drippy towel overlaps Strong Mad, even though he's in front of it.
*It's kind of strange that Strong Bad doesn't know what a haiku is, considering that he used one in [[japanese cartoon]]. The haiku he makes in this cartoon is his second.
*Strong Mad apparently has a thing for athletes. He dressed as Kobe in [[A Decemberween Pageant]], and has dressed as a professional sports player in two of the last three Halloween episodes (Refrigerator Perry, Ben Wallace), and wore a baseball cap with the Detroit Tigers' logo on it as Magnum, P.I.

[[Strong Bad]] describes what he would look like as a japanese cartoon, and [[20X6]] is born.

'''Cast (in order of appearance):''' [[Strong Bad]], [[Stinkoman]], [[Pan Pan]], [[20X6 Homestar]], [[Homestar Runner]] {Easter Egg}'''

'''STRONG BAD:''' So cool an email. I thought you would enjoy it! Ding-dong...

''{reading}''

<pre>Dear Strong Bad,
what would you look like as a
japanese cartoon and what would
it be about?

-james f.</pre>

''{Strong Bad pronounces "f." "fffffffffff"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' A Japanese cartoon, eh, James? I saw one o' thems once. Let's see what I can remember.

''{cut to a white screen with Strong Bad standing there. As he describes how he would look different, the changes are applied}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, so first of all, my head would have to be a little bean. With real-real big eyes. Get rid of my thumbs, make me all shiny...my boots would be a whole lot cooler. Like robot boots. And for some reason, I got blue hair. You gotta have blue hair. Then there's my mouth. Real tiny when it's closed; ridiculously huge when it's open. And then you basically just put me in space and let me fly around in cool poses!

''{we see Stinko Man, the anime Strong Bad, flying around in all sorts of cool poses. He then lands down in a futuristic anime-rendition of the field.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And they'd probably have somebody else do the voices.

''{20X6 Homestar walks on}''

'''20X6 HOMESTAR:''' Hey Stinko Man! Everybody says you're the guy but, I wanna be the guy too!

'''STINKO MAN:''' No way, you're just a kid! Maybe when you're older.

''{Pan Pan, the anime version of PomPom designed to look like a panda, bounces in and squashes 20X6 Homestar}''

'''STINKO MAN:''' Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Pan Pan is fat! Ha ha ha ha ha! He fell on you! Ha ha ha ha! He's a good bear!

''{Suddenly, the cartoon transitions into an ink-drawing of the scene. The Stinkoman K theme song starts playing. The background then changes to a similar sketch of Stinkoman powering up, upon which the credits appear:}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{in Stinko Man's voice}'' Japanese cartoons are w-- ''{clears his throat}'' Oh, ahem, excuse me. ''{goes back to typing and uses his regular voice}'' Japanese cartoons are weird, man. Though I may be on to something with that blue hair.

'''Click Here To Email Strong Bad'''

''{You can click on the final "credit" to e-mail Strong Bad.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*At the very end you can click on the words, "Japanese Cartoons" and see "Stinkoman" in action.
*At the end of "Stinkoman K 20X6" you can click on "Japanese Cartoons" again to see Homestar Runner watching it and singing along to the theme song.
*While or after Homestar is watching the intro to Stinkoman, you can click on the "NES Endings" video tape to see various ending to NES games.
*Once the NES Endings window opens you can click on it to show more.

== Fun Facts ==
*The endings for the Nintendo games are as follows:
#Rad Racer (Rad Racer is also the source of the Stinkoman theme song)
#Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest (Normal Ending)
#Megaman 2
#Super Mario Bros. 2 (Super Mario USA in Japan)
#Arch Rivals: A Basket Brawl!
#Ghosts N' Goblins (Good Ending)
#Blaster Master
#The Legend of Zelda (First Quest)
#Metroid (1-3 Hours Finishing Time)
#Jackal
#Rygar

*In the third slide of the "credits", you can see a parody of Vegeta (Dragon Ball Z), all Strong Bad'd up.

*According to Strong Bad, the steps to making a cartoon character into a japanese cartoon character are:
*#Make the head a little bean
*#Have real-real big eyes
*#Get rid of the thumbs
*#Make it all shiny
*#The shoes would be a whole lot cooler, like robot boots
*#And for some reason, they'd have blue hair. You gotta have blue hair!
*#Then there's the mouth. Real-real small when closed, ridiculously huge when open
*#Then you just put them in space and have them fly around in cool poses

*This is one of two [[Strong Bad Email]]s in which the paper doesn't come down. The other is [[superhero name]].

*The name Stinkoman is a reference to [[island]]. Homestar suddenly calls Strong Bad "Stinkoman."

*20x6 is actually a reference to the first Metroid game, which is set in the year 20x5.

*The spaceship looks a lot like [http://starbase.globalpc.net/%7Ebhz/strongbad/images/galaxy5000.gif this] spaceship from the videogame Galaxy 5000.

*The credits for Stinkoman K are lifted from The Legend of Zelda for NES. One of the credits is S. Miyahon. This was a translation error in the original game, as it was meant to be the Legendary Shigeru Miyamoto, creator of Mario. The Kanji for Hon (Book), and Moto (Base) are the same Kanji.

*The theme music is lifted directly from [http://www.vgmuseum.com/images/nes/01/rad.html Rad Racer], an old NES game. ''Rad Racer'' 's music was composed by Nobuo Uematsu, who, of course, would later go on to become famous for his ''Final Fantasy'' soundtracks.

*At the begining of the email, Strong Bad recites a Haiku, which is very fitting:
**So cool an email
**I thought you would enjoy it
**Ding dong dear Strong Bad

*The first line of Strong Bad's haiku is a reference to Strong Bad E-mail #34, [[weird dream]], in which the Cheat's computer, [[Tangerine Dreams]], has an icon labelled 'So Cool A Flash'. This, in turn, refers to the Klez virus, an e-mail virus with the subject line 'So Cool A Flash'. The text inside the e-mail was 'I thought you would enjoy it', so the opening line of this e-mail is a reference to both [[weird dream]] and the Klez virus.

*The credit for H. Yamauchi is presumably a reference to Hiroshi Yamauchi, the president of Nintendo.

*The credits for Mike Rock and MattMatt are references to [[The Brothers Chaps|Mike and Matt Chapman]].

*The two videos next to the NES Endings are "Joy of Painting" from the Toons menu.

''{Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat are walking along in regular clothing during the daytime. Then, a nighttime background scrolls onscreen, stitched right onto the daytime background. As the trio cross the [[Wikipedia:Terminator|terminator]] into nighttime, they get changed in to their costumes (with a slight slithering noise) as the opening credits roll; "Halloween Fairstival" / Spoken By Matt and Missy / Maken By Mike and Matt / Here go the first scene...}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Alright boys, it's Halloween night, what we gonna do?

''{The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Come again?

''{Again, The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What's wrong there, Philly Cheat-steak? You got-a some Hiccups?

''{Again, The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Well you picked the perfect night to have them. We shouldn't have any trouble scaring the hiccups out of you on Halloween. Let's see what's going on tonight. There's gotta be something scary.

''{Zoom in on poster with "Coach Z's Haunted Locka-room" adorned on it}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooh, that's perfect! I've seen some stuff in that locker room that would scare more than just the hiccups out of you, let me tell ya. Let's check it on out!

''{Cut to a haunted locker room with a dark screen and green gas along the floor}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You scared yet, The Cheat? What about that drippy towel over there? That's pretty scary, huh? ''{in a scared voice}'' Oh no, please don't drip on me! You smell like shin guards!

''{Coach Z appears}''

'''COACH Z:''' ''{in a frightening voice}'' Crackity towel! Tommy John surgery!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{clears throat}'' Coach, we're trying to scare the hiccups out of The Cheat. You got anything that's not just gross and moist?

'''COACH Z:''' What could be scarier than Blue Star Ointment?! Ooooooh! (pronouced "aawooooeeeeorrrrre")

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{speaking a Haiku}'' 
This night. Black as pitch. 
Doom from inside me wells up. 
Pray I don't get egged. 

'''STRONG BAD:''' I don't know or care what a Hiookoo is. But we need to scare The Cheat.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Ooh, I got just the thing! ''{speaking another Haiku}'' 
Rapping at the door. 
Fills up aged pillow case. 
So sick of Smarties. 
''{"aged" is pronounced with two syllables to make the second line have a total of seven}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, I get it, let me try one! ''{speaking his own Haiku}'' 
A butt for a face. 
Little brother: dork, dork, dork. 
Stay out of my room. 
I'm sorry, The Cheat, looks like we got to find some other way to scare the ever-loving hiccups out of you.

'''STRONG SAD:''' You don't SCARE the hiccups out of somebody! You gotta laugh 'em out!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! That sounds like a segue!

''{Segue to Bubs, against the side wall of his concession stand, under a neon sign reading "Bubs' Ha-Ha-Halloween comedy club"}''

'''BUBS:''' I mean, seriously, people, it's the 90s! Am I right? Am I left? ''{Strong Mad laughs}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Say, Bubs, your comedy club bears a striking resemblance to the side of your concession stand.

'''BUBS:''' Aww, that's rich. You know something else bears a striking resemblance to something else? Women can't drive!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Awwwww, let's get out here, my bad pennies.

''{Strong Bad and The Cheat leave}''

'''STRONG MAD:''' THIS GUY CRACKS ME UP!

'''BUBS:''' And, airline food! I mean, humminah-what? ''{Bubs hits his head with his microphone. Strong Mad laughs again}''

''{cut to sign 'The KOT's verry Halloween related turducken bob'; pan to the King of Town with three turduckens in mashed potatoes}''

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Hurry, hurry, hurry! Before I eat it all! Step right up and get your Halloween on! Bobbin' for Turduckens!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Dear Oldie, Shut up! Your pal, Strong Bad.

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Howdy, boys. Either of you got a wicked mashed potato Jones?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! Mashed Potato Jones. Now there's a fella I'd like to meet!

''{The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh yeah, we need to get rid of The Cheat's hiccups. You got any grody old man remedies?

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Sure! You gotta feed and feed the hiccups until they mature into liver failure! And then...

'''STRONG BAD:''' We're not trying to kill The Cheat! Don't ya have anything that could just scare him?

'''KING OF TOWN:''' I have this x-ray of my heart.

''{The King of Town holds up an x-ray showing a ham where his heart should be, labelled 'General Caveat Lower Eclusal'}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's not scary. That's... promising! Come on, The Cheat. Let's let the King die in peace.

''{The King of Town's mask spins into a sad face, like the character he's dressed up as}''

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Yes. Let's.

''{Cut to Pom Pom and the Poopsmith who are holding a silent auction}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What's up, no-talkers? Keep on... no-talking.

''{This is only if you clicked on the POOPSMITH'S belt: HOMSAR pops out of the sign and stands upside down on the screen}''
'''HOMSAR:''' DaAaAa... I blew it, man! I lose my touch.
''{He waddles around the screen once, while The Poopsmith's and Pom-Pom's eyes follow him}''

''{Cut to Marzipan standing with a guitar next to a stall of fruit}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What is this mess?

'''MARZIPAN:''' Ready, everybody? A-one, and a-two, and a-here we go! ''{Marzipan sings}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat, this is it! This is the most terrifying thing I have ever seen!

''{The Cheat hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, man!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Good job, The Cheat! Now try harmonizing with the butternut squashes! ''{sings}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' This might not get rid of the hiccups, but it's about to give me the throw-ups!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh yeah! Lay it on me, Mr. Corn!

''{Strong Bad makes vomiting noises}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{appears from behind a tree, on which is a sign reading 'back alley dealings'}'' Hey guys, hey guys, hey guys guys guys! You guys...errrr...need some witches' brew? I got some right here. Two jars. Cold, hot, fresh witches' brew! Only ten bucks a pop! Side effects include wine, women, and song. ''{He holds up two jars labelled 'brüe'}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Witches' brew, eh? All right, we'll take one jar!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Here you go.

''{The Cheat drinks it and hiccups}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, crap! He's still got 'em!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That'll be ten bucks! Please drive around to the second window!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Aww, okay... But, uhhh, can you pay us the ten bucks tomorrow?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Nah, I'm good for it. I'll pay you the ten bucks right now!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, The Cheat, I'll give you ten bucks if you stop hiccupping!

''{The Cheat tucks the cash into his costume and stops}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ooh! Hey, Homestar! I'll give you ten bucks if you stop breathing!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, you got a deal! ''{Homestar tries for a couple of seconds}'' Strong Bad... I couldn't do it... for very long...

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'd try again. Ten is a lot of bucks.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Right right, a lot of ducks!

''{He keeps trying during the fade-out}''
