			<title>Hiatuses</title>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;MeltingObject:&amp;#32;/* 2011 - {{CURRENTYEAR}} */&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;{{tbd}}&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, [[The Brothers Chaps]] put all or part of the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] website on '''hiatus'''. This has been happening particularly recently, especially with [[Strong Bad Email]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Minor hiatuses==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Weclome Back.PNG|thumb|&amp;quot;What is it, like, mid-May or something?&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
With the exception of its early years, the first time Homestar Runner went on a hiatus of at least a month was December 2005/January 2006, starting with the release of the Strong Bad Email [[portrait]] and ending with the release of the Strong Bad Email [[highschool]]. Despite being short compared to the current hiatus, it caused almost as much discussion, as can be seen [[HRWiki:Main Page Talk Archive 8#Slow=Update?|here]]. It again went on hiatus in May/June 2006, after the release of the Strong Bad Email [[isp]]. This was because of a [[Very, Very Little Girl|baby]] that [[Mike Chapman]] and [[Missy Palmer]] gave birth to. This hiatus ended with [[Weclome Back]], which also explained what the Homestar Runner characters were up to during that time. The next hiatus was in December 2006/January 2007, between the releases of [[Decemberween Short Shorts]] and [[looking old]], and in July 2007, [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] and [[Jackie Chapman]] also gave birth to a baby and stated that Homestar Runner would be taking a break for this reason, but [[Where's an Egg?]] was released shortly after this announcement. The next hiatus was in December 2008/January 2009, between the releases of [[A Death-Defying Decemberween]] and [[Hremail 62]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Strong Bad Emails==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:lappysplosion.PNG|thumb|A comeback... or was it?]]&lt;br /&gt;
The first long Strong Bad Email hiatus was in between [[email thunder]] and [[hremail3184]], lasting 280 days (nine months and one week). It was the longest Sbemail gap when it came out, and for a while afterwards, one Strong Bad email came out each month. The last Strong Bad email, [[videography]], came out on October 5, 2009, and as of now it is the longest Strong Bad email gap in the history of the site (over two years). As of {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}, the hiatus is still ongoing. However, The Brothers Chaps do not seem to have forgotten about Strong Bad Email, as they have released [[Sbemail 136 Alternate Versions|drafts]] for the email that eventually became [[geddup noise]] as well as a [[2011 Calendar|calendar]] that documents the release dates of all Strong Bad Emails and shows an image and a quote from selected emails. In addition, Matt Chapman, as revealed on his Twitter page, revealed a partial image of scripting for sbemail 206, which he claimed will be revealed &amp;quot;when you least expect it&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2010==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:babylady.jpg|thumb|The original reason for the hiatus]]&lt;br /&gt;
During 2010, after the [[April Fools' Day]] toon [[Xeriouxly Forxe]] came out (itself the first major update in nearly five months), barely any material was produced on the website. Most of the articles presented on the main page were [[Store]] offers. This may be because of a new baby in the family, as noted on the [[FeedBurner page]], and the possibility they were busy working on a different project. For the first time in the site's history, no [[Halloween]] cartoon was produced in 2010. After over seven months of no updates, on November 22, [[Poker Night at the Inventory]] was released. On December 14, 2010, [[A Decemberween Mackerel]] was released, temporarily ending the hiatus. This was shortly followed by [[Which Ween Costumes?]] on December 22.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2011 - {{CURRENTYEAR}}==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:aquashot.png|thumb|How 2011 can be summed up for Homestar Runner]]&lt;br /&gt;
Following the holiday break into the new year, the site was back on hiatus, though [[Puppet Character Variations|Puppet Strong Bad]] did appear at [[Aquabats Concert - 18 Jan 2011|an Aquabats concert in January]]. There have been no updates since (with the exception of a Store offer), and for the third time in its history since the trend began, the site was not updated for [[Holidays#April Fools' Day (April 1st)|April Fools' Day]] in any way. In September, Matt created a [[Twitter]] account in which he stated that Homestar Runner would sooner be updated &amp;quot;sporadically and without warning&amp;quot;, and that he works for the [[Nickelodeon]] program [[Wikipedia:Yo Gabba Gabba|Yo Gabba Gabba]], for which he had previously created an animated segment. No [[Halloween]] toon was released in October, and no [[Decemberween]] toon was released in December.  December 22, 2011, marked the first time in the site's history that an entire year passed with no new content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As of {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}, no new material has been put on the site, though on the 27th February 2012 Matt did post an out-of-focus image of the apparent script for Sbemail 206 on his Twitter account, subtitling it &amp;quot;Someday when you least expect it...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Button Effects==&lt;br /&gt;
*'''[[TV Time Toons Menu|Toons]]''' &amp;amp;mdash; A bowling ball with [[Wikipedia: Eddie Van Halen|Eddie Van Halen]]'s &amp;quot;[[Wikipedia:Frankenstrat|Frankenstrat]]&amp;quot; stripe scheme bowls a strike.&lt;br /&gt;
*'''[[Scrolling Shooter Games Menu|Games]]''' &amp;amp;mdash; A watermelon-colored bowling ball gets a 7-10 split. Scroll again and the ball hits both pins for a spare.&lt;br /&gt;
*'''[[Character Videos|Characters]]''' &amp;amp;mdash; The lights dim, some lighting effects come on, and &amp;quot;[[The System Is Down (song)|The System is Down]]&amp;quot; is played.&lt;br /&gt;
*'''[[Downloads]]''' &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar holds a ball that looks like [[Strong Bad]]'s head, twirls it and puts it back.&lt;br /&gt;
*'''[[Store]]''' &amp;amp;mdash; A bowling ball that looks like a globe falls through the floor.&lt;br /&gt;
*'''[[Email]]''' &amp;amp;mdash; The globe ball rolls down the gutter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*The 7-10 [[Wikipedia:Split (ten pin bowling)|split]], as seen in the &amp;quot;games&amp;quot; option, is the hardest [[Wikipedia:Spare (bowling)|spare]] to pull off in bowling.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*For a while a sample from ''Renegade Master'' by [[Wikipedia:Fatboy Slim|Fatboy Slim]] was played when &amp;quot;Characters&amp;quot; was rolled over. (See [[Secret Pages#Music|Secret Pages]] for the loop.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*When you scroll on Store, the falling bowling ball makes no sound.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The globe bowling ball is the same image used in [[Main Page 1]] and is similar to the one used in the [[Theme Song Video]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The 4-pointed stars on the back wall are similar to the stars seen in the main bowling alley in [[Wikipedia:The Big Lebowski|''The Big Lebowski'']].&lt;br /&gt;
===Fast Forward===&lt;br /&gt;
*The lighting effects are nearly the same as [[The Cheat]]'s light raves that he makes with his own special [[The Cheat's Lightswitch|light switch]] in [[Computer Room|Strong Bad's computer room]], as seen in the email [[techno]], which also included &amp;quot;The System is Down&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

==Other Sportsinterviewses==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Beverly Sportsinterviews===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:ewwclairewhy.png|thumb|left|125px|Some Awards are worth it]]&lt;br /&gt;
''Beverly Sportsinterviews'' (also known as ''Bev Sportsinterviews'') is another author in the [[Homestar Runner universe]]. She is apparently a parody of children's author [[Wikipedia:Beverly Cleary|Beverly Cleary]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two of her books (''Ewww, Claire!! Why???'' and ''Laramie, Why?'') have won the &amp;quot;Some Award&amp;quot; award. Her third book, ''&amp;quot;Cat,&amp;quot; spoke Anne, &amp;quot;Wash!&amp;quot;'', received the &amp;quot;Gold Circle&amp;quot;, while her fourth and fifth, ''Problem Brian'' and ''Scar, Let Moe!'', were given the &amp;quot;Round Award&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beverly collaborated with Lem Sportsinterviews on ''Laramie, Why?''. In [[Late Nite JengaJam Interview - 4 Oct 2007|one interview]], [[Matt Chapman]] suggests that she is Lem's ex-wife.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beverly is credited as the writer for [[Twenty THANXty Six]] as &amp;quot;Beverly Sportsinterviews-Chimendez&amp;quot;, suggesting that she may have married [[A. Chimendez]]. This also suggests that Beverly may be a relative of Lem as opposed to an ex-wife, as the practice of hyphenating a last name is far more commonly used to retain a birth surname than it is to retain a surname from a previous marriage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Collected Works====&lt;br /&gt;
*Email [[origins]] &amp;amp;mdash; Wrote ''[[Books by Sportsinterviewses#Ewww, Claire!! Why???|Ewww, Claire!! Why???]]'' (in [[origins#Easter Eggs|Easter egg]]).&lt;br /&gt;

*[[Twenty THANXty Six]] &amp;amp;mdash; credited as writer in the end credits (as Beverly Sportsinterviews-Chimendez)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Crazy Prof. Sportsinterviews===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Fishwasdelish.PNG|thumb|right|135px|Two heads, an arm, and one great story.]]&lt;br /&gt;
''Crazy Prof. Sportsinterviews'' is yet another author in the Homestar Runner universe. His or her relationship to, or whether he or she is a pseudonym of, Lem or Beverly Sportsinterviews is unknown. His or her books appear to be parodies of [[Dr. Seuss]]'s books.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Collected Works ====&lt;br /&gt;
*Email [[radio]] &amp;amp;mdash; Wrote the children's book ''[[Books by Sportsinterviewses#The Fish was Delish and it made Quite a Dish!|The Fish was Delish and it made Quite a Dish!]]'' (in [[radio#Easter Eggs|Easter egg]]).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;{{tbd}}&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, [[The Brothers Chaps]] put all or part of the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] website on '''hiatus'''. This has been happening particularly recently, especially with [[Strong Bad Email]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Minor hiatuses==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Weclome Back.PNG|thumb|&amp;quot;What is it, like, mid-May or something?&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
With the exception of its early years, the first time Homestar Runner went on a hiatus of at least a month was December 2005/January 2006, starting with the release of the Strong Bad Email [[portrait]] and ending with the release of the Strong Bad Email [[highschool]]. Despite being short compared to the current hiatus, it caused almost as much discussion, as can be seen [[HRWiki:Main Page Talk Archive 8#Slow=Update?|here]]. It again went on hiatus in May/June 2006, after the release of the Strong Bad Email [[isp]]. This was because of a [[Very, Very Little Girl|baby]] that [[Mike Chapman]] and [[Missy Palmer]] gave birth to. This hiatus ended with [[Weclome Back]], which also explained what the Homestar Runner characters were up to during that time. The next hiatus was in December 2006/January 2007, between the releases of [[Decemberween Short Shorts]] and [[looking old]], and in July 2007, [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] and [[Jackie Chapman]] also gave birth to a baby and stated that Homestar Runner would be taking a break for this reason, but [[Where's an Egg?]] was released shortly after this announcement. The next hiatus was in December 2008/January 2009, between the releases of [[A Death-Defying Decemberween]] and [[Hremail 62]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Strong Bad Emails==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:lappysplosion.PNG|thumb|A comeback... or was it?]]&lt;br /&gt;
The first long Strong Bad Email hiatus was in between [[email thunder]] and [[hremail3184]], lasting 280 days (nine months and one week). It was the longest Sbemail gap when it came out, and for a while afterwards, one Strong Bad email came out each month. The last Strong Bad email, [[videography]], came out on October 5, 2009, and as of now it is the longest Strong Bad email gap in the history of the site (over two years). As of {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}, the hiatus is still ongoing. However, The Brothers Chaps do not seem to have forgotten about Strong Bad Email, as they have released [[Sbemail 136 Alternate Versions|drafts]] for the email that eventually became [[geddup noise]] as well as a [[2011 Calendar|calendar]] that documents the release dates of all Strong Bad Emails and shows an image and a quote from selected emails.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2010==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:babylady.jpg|thumb|The original reason for the hiatus]]&lt;br /&gt;
During 2010, after the [[April Fools' Day]] toon [[Xeriouxly Forxe]] came out (itself the first major update in nearly five months), barely any material was produced on the website. Most of the articles presented on the main page were [[Store]] offers. This may be because of a new baby in the family, as noted on the [[FeedBurner page]], and the possibility they were busy working on a different project. For the first time in the site's history, no [[Halloween]] cartoon was produced in 2010. After over seven months of no updates, on November 22, [[Poker Night at the Inventory]] was released. On December 14, 2010, [[A Decemberween Mackerel]] was released, temporarily ending the hiatus. This was shortly followed by [[Which Ween Costumes?]] on December 22.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2011==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:aquashot.png|thumb|How 2011 can be summed up for Homestar Runner]]&lt;br /&gt;
Following the holiday break into the new year, the site was back on hiatus, though [[Puppet Character Variations|Puppet Strong Bad]] did appear at [[Aquabats Concert - 18 Jan 2011|an Aquabats concert in January]]. There have been no updates since (with the exception of a Store offer), and for the third time in its history since the trend began, the site was not updated for [[Holidays#April Fools' Day (April 1st)|April Fools' Day]] in any way. In September, Matt created a [[Twitter]] account in which he stated that Homestar Runner would sooner be updated &amp;quot;sporadically and without warning&amp;quot;, and that he works for the [[Nickelodeon]] program [[Wikipedia:Yo Gabba Gabba|Yo Gabba Gabba]], for which he had previously created an animated segment. No [[Halloween]] toon was released in October, and no [[Decemberween]] toon was released in December.  December 22, 2011, marked the first time in the site's history that an entire year passed with no new content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2012==&lt;br /&gt;
As of {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}, no new material has been put on the site.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Records Set ==&lt;br /&gt;
* Least amount of toons in a year: 0&lt;br /&gt;
* Fewest weekly updates: 0&lt;br /&gt;
* Fewest big toons in a year: 0&lt;br /&gt;
* Longest time between updates: 8 months (with the current hiatus exceeding one year).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Sports and practice! Sports and practice!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A loud buzzer is heard, and Strong Sad stops running just before the finish line.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{dejected}'' Oh, hash potatoes! I'll never be the number-one pick!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Bright red text reading &amp;quot;HOLD ON!&amp;quot; is seemingly slapped onto the screen, and Strong Sad looks into the camera.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''NARRATOR:''' ''{off screen}'' Hold on! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The words on the screen start to skew backwards and then speed offscreen quickly. A graphic of a video tape - titled &amp;quot;Coach Z's 110% Hustle for Sports Instructional Video&amp;quot; - spins onto the screen over Strong Sad who smiles as the narrator continues to speak.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''NARRATOR:''' ''{off screen}'' Introducing Coach Z's 110% Hustle for Sports Instructional Video!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Brightly colored lines gleam from the video's box.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{After a few seconds, an electro-pop type song starts playing, while clips of Homestar running on The Athletic Field, Coach Z talking to The Cheat doing jumping jacks in the Gymnasium, Strong Mad talking to Coach Z near the lockers in the Locker Room, and Strong Sad standing at the track, with Coach Z walking up to him fly across the screen. The latter makes its way to the center of the screen and zooms in to cover the complete viewing area.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' ''{turns to the camera, and starts speaking very statically and detached}'' Hi. I'm Coach Z. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom in on Coach Z}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' And the makers of this commercial have asked me to speak in a more toned-down voice. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Quick zoom in on the coach from another angle}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' As coach of world-champion hustlers and try-harders, ''{He holds up a trophy marked &amp;quot;HUSTLE&amp;quot;, and a medal inscribed &amp;quot;You Tried!&amp;quot;, and puts them down within a few seconds}'' I've cram-packed these&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a whitish-gray screen, where 18 &amp;lt;!--Yep, it's not 19. Count them.--&amp;gt; VHS boxes marked with the instructional video's packaging stack up. The initials &amp;quot;VHS&amp;quot; appear, and letters fly in from the right to make the initials now say &amp;quot;Video Hustle Series&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' &amp;amp;mdash;nineteen 'VHS' cassette tapes, ''{cut back to Coach Z}'' with all the secrets to step-by-step sports instructional videros ''{pronounced as &amp;quot;vid-ee-air-o-s&amp;quot;}''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Homestar at The Field, the edges of the screen tinted white. He turns around and speaks to the viewer}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hustle for sports!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to an orange background, where blue tapes marked with the tape number and titles like &amp;quot;TAPE FOUR: the fundamentals&amp;quot; (showing a basketball player punching someone in the face), &amp;quot;TAPE NINE: advanced techniques&amp;quot; (showing a baseball player hitting a catcher in the head with his baseball bat), and &amp;quot;TAPE FOURTEEN: training tips&amp;quot; (showing a tennis player preparing to hit a rabbit flying through the air) float around the screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''NARRATOR:''' ''{off screen}'' The fundamentals! Advanced techniques! Training tips! ''{Four tapes marked &amp;quot;THE JOCK- part one&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;THE JOCK- part two&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;THE JOCK - part three&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;THE JOCK- part four&amp;quot; stack up on each other, each one depicting a jockstrap}'' And a some lot more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the Athletic Field where Homestar (in his &amp;quot;Team Kneepads&amp;quot; shirt), Strong Sad and The Cheat are standing behind three tires and three baseball gloves. A folded sign with &amp;quot;DRILLS&amp;quot; on it is present in front of The Cheat's tire. Homestar, Strong Sad, and The Cheat start to lean forward, pat their butts, and jump about in a 'warm-up like' fashion.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' My butt-patented system will get the results ''your'' youngster needs to not get made fun of out on the fierld.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut again to reveal Homestar standing around in a similar fashion to before, only at the Athletic Field, slowly zooming in with white borders. He turns around.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hustle for sports!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad, wearing a blue baseball cap, standing in front of an orange background with &amp;quot;This Pr&amp;amp;hearts;duct&amp;quot; repeated on it (in a similar way to the [[Index Page]]). The logo of the video is hovered in front of his cap very awkwardly and doesn't match his movements.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' This product is a product ''I'' endorse. ''{Makes a punch-like gesture at the viewer, and pauses awkwardly for a second}'' On my hat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Homestar in The Locker Room, white borders. He turns around.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hustle for sports!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a [[Charts|pie chart]] over a blue background, &amp;quot;HUS 75%&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;T 16%&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;L 6%&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;E 3%&amp;quot; are marked as so on the chart.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' My whole deal's backed up with ''{A green pie-chart piece reading &amp;quot;extra 10%&amp;quot; is dropped onto the chart}'' actual scientific findings&amp;amp;mdash; ''{Text reading &amp;quot;!!!!&amp;quot; appears, with a line connecting it and the new green pie-chart piece}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A horizontally rotating wireframe model of a human figure appears on the screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' &amp;amp;mdash;and rotating computer graphics, so you ''know'' it's legit! ''{&amp;quot;100% Rotatey&amp;quot; appears on the screen, with a line connecting it to the rotating figure}''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the Locker Room, where Homestar, glistening with sweat and with a towel around his shoulders, is being interviewed. Microphones marked &amp;quot;Sporto TV&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Sports Mics Inc.&amp;quot; are held up to him, and TV bugs containing the text &amp;quot;LIVE-ish&amp;quot; and a logo for &amp;quot;VSTV - Vague Sports Television&amp;quot; are also on screen. Flash photos are being taken.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''REPORTER:''' ''{off screen}'' Homestar Runner, ''you'' just won the sports, how you diddat?&amp;lt;!--sic--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{out of breath}'' Well, we just brought our A game, you know? Everybody stepped it up out there, ''{wipes sweat off brow with towel}'' and then we stayed within ourselves, and decided that it would be a good strategy to try and score more points than our opponents within the allotted time. ''{sudden enthusiasm, holding up Coach Z's intructional video}'' Thanks, Coach Z's 110% Hustle for Sports Instructional Video!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a blue background, with 5 of the videos stacked among each other, a flashing &amp;quot;CALL NOW!!&amp;quot;, and the price of &amp;quot;$59.95*&amp;quot;. Below them is the text &amp;quot;We Accept:&amp;quot;, followed by four credit cards}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''NARRATOR:''' ''{off screen}'' Coach Z's 110% whatever machine! Only $59.95 plus shipping and handing, or free with proof of VCR-have ''{The text &amp;quot;*Free with proof of VCR-have&amp;quot; appear at the bottom}''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a black background, slowly zooming in, with bright lines moving around randomly. Homestar appears again, back to the camera. He turns around, sporting a mustache, and speaks to the viewer.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hustle for sports!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the &amp;quot;pricing&amp;quot; screen, where &amp;quot;CALL NOW!!&amp;quot; is still flashing.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Easter Eggs==&lt;br /&gt;
*At the end, click on the video with the visible cover to see another Strong Bad promo.&lt;br /&gt;
*:''{The footage of Strong Bad from the main toon is shown again, the only difference being that Strong Bad's hat now reads &amp;quot;[[Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People|sbcg4ap]]&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
*:'''STRONG BAD:''' This product is a product I endorse. ''{Makes a punch-like gesture at the viewer, and pauses awkwardly for a second}'' On my hat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*The acronym &amp;quot;VHS&amp;quot; stands for &amp;quot;Video Home System&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*All four different [[credit cards]] read &amp;quot;5555 555 555&amp;quot; as their card numbers.&lt;br /&gt;
**The one to the left reads &amp;quot;plastuique&amp;quot; on a diagonally striped blue/white/red background.&lt;br /&gt;
**The next one is green, reads &amp;quot;$$$&amp;quot; on it and has a circle at the top left corner.&lt;br /&gt;
**The third one reads an orange &amp;quot;[[Portmanteaus|plascardo]]&amp;quot; on a gray fill card.&lt;br /&gt;
**The one to the right reads &amp;quot;VCR&amp;quot; on a card that resembles a VHS video.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Though the ad says &amp;quot;Call now!&amp;quot;, there is no phone number listed.&lt;br /&gt;
*Coach Z says there are 19 VHS tapes, but only 18 are shown.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*One of the exercises Coach Z demonstrates is [[butt-patting]].&lt;br /&gt;
*This is another instance of [[poor acting]], with almost all characters speaking in monotone or cheesy voices.&lt;br /&gt;
*This is another appearance of [[Team Kneepads]] (although [[Homsar]] is absent).&lt;br /&gt;
*The picture of Coach Z painted in the field is the Fightin' Coach Z from [[One Two, One Two]].&lt;br /&gt;

Occasionally, [[The Brothers Chaps]] put all or part of the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] website on '''hiatus'''. This has been happening particularly recently, especially with [[Strong Bad Email]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Minor hiatuses==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Weclome Back.PNG|thumb|&amp;quot;What is it, like, mid-May or something?&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
With the exception of its early years, the first time Homestar Runner went on a hiatus of at least a month was December 2005/January 2006, starting with the release of the Strong Bad Email [[portrait]] and ending with the release of the Strong Bad Email [[highschool]]. Despite being short compared to the current hiatus, it caused almost as much discussion, as can be seen [[HRWiki:Main Page Talk Archive 8#Slow=Update?|here]]. It again went on hiatus in May/June 2006, after the release of the Strong Bad Email [[isp]]. This was because of a [[Very, Very Little Girl|baby]] that [[Mike Chapman]] and [[Missy Palmer]] gave birth to. This hiatus ended with [[Weclome Back]], which also explained what the Homestar Runner characters were up to during that time. The next hiatus was in December 2006/January 2007, between the releases of [[Decemberween Short Shorts]] and [[looking old]], and in July 2007, [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] and [[Jackie Chapman]] also gave birth to a baby and stated that Homestar Runner would be taking a break for this reason, but [[Where's an Egg?]] was released shortly after this announcement. The next hiatus was in December 2008/January 2009, between the releases of [[A Death-Defying Decemberween]] and [[Hremail 62]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Strong Bad Emails==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:lappysplosion.PNG|thumb|A comeback... or was it?]]&lt;br /&gt;
The first long Strong Bad Email hiatus was in between [[email thunder]] and [[hremail3184]], lasting 280 days (nine months and one week). It was the longest Sbemail gap when it came out, and for a while afterwards, one Strong Bad email came out each month. The last Strong Bad email, [[videography]], came out on October 5, 2009, and as of now it is the longest Strong Bad email gap in the history of the site (over two years). As of {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}, the hiatus is still ongoing. However, The Brothers Chaps do not seem to have forgotten about Strong Bad Email, as they have released [[Sbemail 136 Alternate Versions|drafts]] for the email that eventually became [[geddup noise]] as well as a [[2011 Calendar|calendar]] that documents the release dates of all Strong Bad Emails and shows an image and a quote from selected emails.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Site &amp;amp;mdash; 2010==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:babylady.jpg|thumb|The original reason for the hiatus]]&lt;br /&gt;
During 2010, after the [[April Fools' Day]] toon [[Xeriouxly Forxe]] came out (itself the first major update in nearly five months), barely any material was produced on the website. Most of the articles presented on the main page were [[Store]] offers. This may be because of a new baby in the family, as noted on the [[FeedBurner page]], and the possibility they were busy working on a different project. For the first time in the site's history, no [[Halloween]] cartoon was produced in 2010. After over seven months of no updates, on November 22, [[Poker Night at the Inventory]] was released. On December 14, 2010, [[A Decemberween Mackerel]] was released, temporarily ending the hiatus. This was shortly followed by [[Which Ween Costumes?]] on December 22.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Site &amp;amp;mdash; 2011==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:aquashot.png|thumb|How 2011 can be summed up for Homestar Runner]]&lt;br /&gt;
Following the holiday break into the new year, the site was back on hiatus, though [[Puppet Character Variations|Puppet Strong Bad]] did appear at [[Aquabats Concert - 18 Jan 2011|an Aquabats concert in January]]. There have been no updates since (with the exception of a Store offer), and for the third time in its history since the trend began, the site was not updated for [[Holidays#April Fools' Day (April 1st)|April Fools' Day]] in any way. In September, Matt created a [[Twitter]] account in which he stated that Homestar Runner would sooner be updated &amp;quot;sporadically and without warning&amp;quot;, and that he works for the [[Nickelodeon]] program [[Wikipedia:Yo Gabba Gabba|Yo Gabba Gabba]], for which he had previously created an animated segment. No [[Halloween]] toon was released in October, and no [[Decemberween]] toon was released in December.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Records Set ==&lt;br /&gt;
* Least amount of toons in a year: 4&lt;br /&gt;
* Fewest weekly updates: 0&lt;br /&gt;
* Fewest big toons in a year: 0&lt;br /&gt;
* Longest time between updates: 8 months (with the current hiatus exceeding one year).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;[[Image:SBEmail 124.PNG|thumb|The dynamic duo in action, grossing out [[Coach Z]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
'''[[Strong Bad]] and [[The Cheat| The Cheat's]] relationship''' is a mix of several feelings. While they often work together, they're not always kind.

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;{{tbd}}&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally [[The Brothers Chaps]] have put part or all of the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] website on '''hiatus'''. This has been happening particularly recently, especially with [[Strong Bad Email]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Strong Bad Emails==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:lappysplosion.PNG|thumb|A comeback... or was it?]]&lt;br /&gt;
The first long Strong Bad Email hiatus was in between [[email thunder]] and [[hremail3184]], lasting 280 days (nine months and one week). It was the longest Sbemail gap when it came out, and for a while afterwards, one Strong Bad email came out each month. The last Strong Bad email, [[videography]], came out in October 5th, 2009, and as of now it is the longest Strong Bad email gap in the history of the site (over two years). As of {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}, the hiatus is still ongoing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Site &amp;amp;mdash; 2010==&lt;br /&gt;
During 2010, after the [[April Fools' Day]] toon [[Xeriouxly Forxe]] came out (itself the first toon in nearly five months), barely any material was produced on the website. Most of the articles presented on the main page were [[Store]] offers. This may be because of a new baby in the family, as noted on the [[FeedBurner]] page, and the possibility they were busy working on a different project. For the first time in the site's history, no [[Halloween]] cartoon was produced in 2010. After over seven months of no updates, on November 22, [[Poker Night at the Inventory]] was released. On December 14, 2010, [[A Decemberween Mackerel]] was released, temporarily ending the hiatus. This was shortly followed by [[Which Ween Costumes?]] on December 22.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Site &amp;amp;mdash; 2011==&lt;br /&gt;
Following the holiday break into the new year, the site was back on hiatus, though [[Puppet Character Variations|Puppet Strong Bad]] did appear at [[Aquabats Concert - 18 Jan 2011|an Aquabats concert in January]]. There have been no updates since and for the third time in its history since the trend began, the site was not updated for [[Holidays#April Fools' Day (April 1st)|April Fools' Day]] in any way.&lt;/div&gt;</description>

&lt;div&gt;[[File:Homestar Bubs Conflict.png|thumb|&amp;quot;I'm ''delighted'' you've decided to set up shop about ''ten feet away'' from me!&amp;quot;]] &lt;br /&gt;
'''[[Homestar Runner]] and [[Bubs]]'s relationship''' is often a good and steady friendship. Homestar usually talks to Bubs nicely while buying from or just hanging out at his [[Bubs' Concession Stand|concession stand]]. Rarely have these two gotten into arguments, unless it was personal.&lt;br /&gt;

*[[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]] &amp;amp;mdash; Bubs would give Homestar a ''Jurassic Park III'' collector's spoon for the funky dancing. In the epilogue, Homestar would complement Bubs' costume.&lt;br /&gt;

*[[No Hands on Deck!]] &amp;amp;mdash; Bubs is intrigued by Homestar's idea of building a deck and goes to buy lots of [[melonade]] for the both of them to celebrate all summer long.

*[[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar brags that he could get a million pounds of candy while trick-or-treating, but Bubs is unimpressed by it. At [[Marzipan's House]], Bubs laughs at Homestar for getting [[whatsit|&amp;quot;bum candy&amp;quot;]] from [[The Poopsmith]].&lt;br /&gt;

*[[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]] &amp;amp;mdash; Bubs would give Homestar low grade items for either singing a ''terrible'' sing or giving out the ''worst'' Reagan impression Bubs ever heard. In the epilogue, Homestar mistakes Bubs' costume as Lando Calrissian.

*[[Donut Unto Others]] &amp;amp;mdash; Bubs both metaphorically and ''literally'' gets steamed to see that Homestar has set up a competing doughnut place, [[Do-Nots]], about ten feet away from his concession stand.

Bubs intends to outdo Homestar at the 3:09 P.M. doughnut rush before and when [[The King of Town]] arrives to buy something, but Homestar seems less competitive. After Strong Bad attacks Homestar, Bubs sneaks out the back of the concession stand with triumph.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[The Animated Adventures of Puppet Homestar]] &amp;amp;mdash; After becoming Puppet Homestar's pile manager, Puppet Bubs betrays Puppet Homestar when Puppet Strong Bad claims the pile for himself, replying &amp;quot;Sorry Piles, I got my own styles.&amp;quot;  Puppet Bubs becomes Strong Bad's pile manager afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;

Later on, after Homestar admits he was lying about seeing what was that &amp;quot;thing in a bag,&amp;quot; Bubs accosts him for it.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar brags that he could get a million pounds of candy while trick-or-treating, but Bubs is unimpressed by it. At [[Marzipan's House]], Bubs laughs at Homestar for getting [[whatsit|&amp;quot;bum candy&amp;quot;]] from [[The Poopsmith]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Email [[lunch special]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar is pretty much sure that Bubs is lying about himself being able to fly.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Broken Compy Menu]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar accuses Bubs of trying to &amp;quot;sell him a lemon&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Bug In Mouth Disease]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar is annoyed by Bubs not paying attention about the &amp;quot;good times&amp;quot; and questions him about being an unethical quack, to which Bubs responds that he is the most &amp;quot;quackinest.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]] &amp;amp;mdash; Bubs would give Homestar low grade items for either singing a ''terrible'' sing or giving out the ''worst'' Reagan impression Bubs ever heard. In the epilogue, Homestar mistakes Bubs' costume as Lando Calrissian. After Bubs corrects himself as being the &amp;quot;Master of Disaster,&amp;quot; Homestar warns The Poopsmith to &amp;quot;get ready.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Date Nite]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar is shocked to hear that [[Marzipan]] is having a date with Bubs.&lt;br /&gt;
*Email [[licensed]] &amp;amp;mdash; Bubs sells Homestar a Strong Bad piñata full of broken glass from the black market, which made Homestar start bleeding, though he was too ignorant to get upset about it.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[The Baloneyman]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar becomes annoyed with Bubs repeating that one particular sandwich was '&amp;quot;shaped&amp;quot; like there was a bite taken out of it'.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[A Death-Defying Decemberween]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar seems annoyed at Bubs' joke of not knowing about the show, which is currently on air. He then gets nervous when Bubs presents the gravestone epitaph on the sled.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Donut Unto Others]] &amp;amp;mdash; Bubs both metaphorically and ''literally'' gets steamed to see that Homestar has set up a competing doughnut place, [[Do-Nots]], about ten feet away from his concession stand. Homestar thought Bubs was still selling [[Questionable Services|questionable]] medical coverage before setting up shop, but that was two hours ago. Bubs intends to outdo Homestar at the 3:09 P.M. doughnut rush before and when [[The King of Town]] arrives to buy something, but Homestar seems less competitive. After Strong Bad attacks Homestar, Bubs sneaks out the back of the concession stand with triumph.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[The Animated Adventures of Puppet Homestar]] &amp;amp;mdash; After becoming Puppet Homestar's pile manager, Puppet Bubs betrays Puppet Homestar when Puppet Strong Bad claims the pile for himself, replying &amp;quot;Sorry Piles, I got my own styles.&amp;quot;  Puppet Bubs becomes Strong Bad's pile manager afterwards.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;[[Image:SS Smile DNA.PNG|thumb|&amp;quot;Yes.  The world will ''never'' know for sure!&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{about|running gag}} {{for|toon|DNA Evidence (toon)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In six consecutive [[Strong Bad Email]]s, characters referred to [[Wikipedia:Genetic fingerprinting|'''DNA evidence''']] without any context given for why they would be discussing it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The appearances remained unexplained until they were tied together in the toon [[DNA Evidence]], in which it was revealed that [[Marzipan]] found the vial of green DNA evidence in her couch after [[Marzipan's House|her house]] was broken into. She then brought it to be analyzed by [[Bubs]], but only got back another vial marked &amp;quot;tampered with&amp;quot;. Bubs had sold the actual DNA evidence to [[Strong Bad]] in a snow cone, in lieu of green apple flavoring, and had most likely then refilled the vial with &amp;quot;purple&amp;quot; flavored snow cone syrup and given it back to Marzipan. Strong Bad had deliberately deprived Bubs of green apple flavoring in order to get the DNA evidence, which he hoped to use for genetic experiments involving [[The Cheat]]. [[Homestar Runner]] drank the melted-snow-cone DNA evidence, thinking it was [[Mountain Dew]], and spat it on The Cheat, who then dried himself off with a towel. The towel was used by [[Coach Z]] to do his janitorial work at [[the office]], when it inexplicably disappeared. It was revealed at the end that the evidence was [[Strong Sad]]'s DNA, and Strong Bad had intended to use it to find out if Strong Sad was &amp;quot;[[soolnds|part elephant]] or [[impression|part hippo]] or something&amp;quot;. Strong Sad was extremely pleased that no one found out, and recovered the DNA by stealing the towel from Coach Z's cart. He hides the DNA evidence in the box with [[The Secrets That I Keep|the rest of his secrets]]. While [[Homsar]] witnessed this revelation, it seems unlikely he will be able to communicate it to anyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Wikipedia:DNA|DNA]] is often used in [[Wikipedia: Forensic science#Applications and subdivisions of forensic science|forensic science deduction]] to connect bodily fluids or tissue found at a crime scene to a particular individual. It may also be used to identify a corpse. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Sequence of events==&lt;br /&gt;
*'''Debut:''' Email [[strong badathlon]] &amp;amp;mdash; Marzipan believes the DNA evidence has been tampered with.&lt;br /&gt;
*Email [[unnatural]] &amp;amp;mdash; Strong Bad reveals to The Cheat that he was the one who tampered with the DNA evidence.&lt;br /&gt;
*Email [[the movies]] &amp;amp;mdash; A character in the movie says that when he returned, the DNA evidence was gone.&lt;br /&gt;
*Email [[your funeral]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar Runner comes home and Marzipan asks if he found the DNA evidence.&lt;br /&gt;
*Email [[from work]] &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar Runner tells [[Pom Pom]] that he'll have the DNA evidence on his desk by 5:00.&lt;br /&gt;
*Email [[rough copy]] (Easter Egg) &amp;amp;mdash; Homestar Runner sits on the couch, and flatly says &amp;quot;DNA evidence&amp;quot; after a long pause and an exasperated sigh.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[DNA Evidence]] &amp;amp;mdash; Strong Sad investigates the story behind the gag, and all our questions are answered... sort of.&lt;br /&gt;

== Transcript ==&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad is at the Compy 386, playing ''Peasant's Quest''. He has a score of -38 and is in the area with Kerrek.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, let's see here... ''{typing}'' Make friends with Kerrek. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A message appears, reading, &amp;quot;The Kerrek says he has enough friends already. And he doesn't like your short, short pants.&amp;quot; His score also drops to -40.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' What the...!? ''(presses enter; the Kerrek starts making his way over to Rather Dashing}'' Um... ''{typing}'' Buy Kerrek a cold one. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Kerrek smashes Rather Dashing on the head. The Game Over tune plays. Another message appears, reading, &amp;quot;The Kerrek is a teetotaller and is offended by your offer. He pounds your head into the ground. You dead.&amp;quot; His score also drops to -45.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' WHAT?!? Oh man... Stupid game! ''{presses enter; types &amp;quot;quit&amp;quot;. A message reads, &amp;quot;You quitter.&amp;quot;}'' I guess I should do the thing... that I do. ''{pulls up the a&amp;gt; sign and types &amp;quot;strongbad_email.exe&amp;quot;}'' ''{Reading}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Coolest guy ever - - - Strong Bad,&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I've been wondering if you ever&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
thought of making your own television&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
series? Kids everywhere would love&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
you, and your awesomeness.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Allison , NJ&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad reads &amp;quot;- - -&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;henna henna henna&amp;quot;. After reading the greeting, he says, &amp;quot;Whoa! Three hennas! Must be an important one!&amp;quot;  After the comma in the last sentence, he says &amp;quot;unnecessary comma,&amp;quot; and he pronounces &amp;quot;Allison&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;All is on&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Television?!! Kids?!! Wait, do you people think I'm intended for children? Like, the littlest, tiniest babies? You know, they watch those shows on public television. I don't think I'm cut out for that sort of sugarjob.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a piece of yellow paper of the sort used to teach kindergartners writing. Strong Bad is superimposed on it with a rocket launcher/bazooka, a monster with horns, a bunny with fangs, and a creature that resembles a man sticking its tongue out drawn in crayon around him.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Smiling beatifically}'' Okay, kids, we're gonna play &amp;quot;Where's The Cheat?&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a side-view of Strong Bad, who faces at the camera.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Can you say, &amp;quot;a-The Cheat&amp;quot;? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KIDS:''' ''{half incoherent}'' The Cheat. ''{one child mumbles}'' Christopher Columbus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{stops smiling}'' Not good enough. F minus minus. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{&amp;quot;F--&amp;quot; appears on the screen. The [[DELETED]] [[Sound Effects|buzzer]] is heard. Cut back to Strong Bad. Behind him are crayon drawings of a tree, an open box and a toilet.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, dumb children. ''{rubs his hands together}'' Find The Cheat! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The Cheat comes out from behind the box and waves.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KIDS:''' ''{say things like &amp;quot;He's over there,&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Right there.&amp;quot; They continue saying this.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Um, no, he's behind the box. ''{turns around and points to The Cheat}'' No, uh, he's not even ''behind'' the box, he's ''barely obscured'' by the box. ''{turns around and looks downwards; his hands becomes fists and he looks back up}'' Look, ''The Cheat is behind the freaking box!!'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Kids stop talking and the music soundtrack screeches to a halt accompanied by a record scratch. The Cheat jumps slightly. Strong Bad breathes heavily, then suddenly jumps to a position much closer to the viewer, and starts waving his arms}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{screaming} HE'S BEHIND THE BOX! {slides down, then gets even closer} I'LL KILL YA!! I'LL KILL ALL YOUR DOGS''&amp;lt;!-- It's dogs, not dolls, as revealed in the DVD commentary. --&amp;gt;!! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back via static to Strong Bad at the Compy 386}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' So, you can see how that might be less than pleasant. What with all the letter writing and the angry mothers and the subsequent stringing me up in town square for all to see. But you know who's a natural for that sorta thing? None other than America's favorite blue midget Homestar: Homsar!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to an all-white scene. Homsar comes through a faraway door. He walks closer to the viewer and stops.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KIDS:''' Whaddaya know, Haddi-man?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homsar opens his mouth and his hat flies up in the air. Cut to a background with white, yellow, purple and green flowers spinning counter-clockwise. As the words are sung, they are shown one by one at the bottom of the viewer's screen. A caricature of Homsar rides by from right to left in a boat with a red flag. His shirt says &amp;quot;if you lived here you'd be home&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MAN:''' We'll have an adventure, and several long trips. We'll make some new friends&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Smiling, multi-ethnic children appear behind Homsar as he sails left off the screen}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MAN:''' &amp;amp;mdash;and maybe get a bite to eat!!! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{An orange with &amp;quot;abc&amp;quot; on it appears. Seven Homsar silhouettes now fan like a hand of cards from left to right, and then disappear in reverse order.}''  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MAN:''' All 'cause we say... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A red silhouette of Homsar with the flag from the boat appears. White liquid spills onto the screen. A logo that says '''&amp;quot;Whaddaya Know Haddi-man?&amp;quot;''' with a second caricature of Homsar on it appears.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KIDS:''' Whaddaya know, Haddi-man?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The real Homsar pops up on the left side of the screen in the lower left corner.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMSAR:''' DaAaAaA! I'm a trendy tote bag!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a tan scene. Homsar disappears and reappears in various places, accompanied by raspberry noises. When he stops in the left half of the foreground, a blue lower case &amp;quot;g&amp;quot; appears beside him.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KIDS:''' A &amp;quot;G&amp;quot;!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMSAR''': I'm not gonna lie to you, that's a healthy piece of real estate!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KIDS:''' A &amp;quot;G&amp;quot;!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a purple background with a seated, mustachioed man playing a guitar. As the words are sung, they appear on the screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STAVE IT OFF GUY:''' Stave it off, 1-2-3, and now you can count to three.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMSAR:''' That's a real popular song! Who wants to hear of it fifty times more?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KIDS''': ''{shouts of approval}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the previous screen. Now we see two of the guitar-playing people, one in a darker shade superimposed behind the other. Again, as the words are sung, they appear on the screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STAVE IT OFF GUY:''' Stave it off, 1-2-3, and now you can count to three.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The darker shaded guitarist is suddenly upside-down, and the song is repeated as are the words on the screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STAVE IT OFF GUY:''' Stave it off, 1-2-3, and now you can count to three.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the Compy via static.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Good gravy. ''{Spoken: GOOD... GRAVY.}'' I've got two words for the children that are raised on that crap: ''{in monotone}'' HELD BACK. REPEATING THE THIRD GRADE. LOW STANDARDIZED TEST SCORES. I GUESS THIS WAS MORE THAN TWO WORDS. THE PAPER, PLEASE TAKE US HOME.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''&lt;br /&gt;

== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*A person who practices total abstinence from alcoholic beverages is called a [[wikipedia:Teetotaler|teetotaller]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Peasant's Quest Responses|commands]] Strong Bad uses in [[Peasant's Quest]] were not originally part of the game but were added after this email debuted. &lt;br /&gt;
**Typing &amp;quot;make friends with kerrek&amp;quot; results in the message &amp;quot;Look, it didn't work for Strongbad &amp;lt;!--sic--&amp;gt; and it's not gonna work for you either.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
**Typing &amp;quot;buy kerrek a cold one&amp;quot; results in the message &amp;quot;The Kerrek is a teetotaller and is offended by your request. You've really cheesed him off now.&amp;quot;, and causes the Kerrek to move twice as fast.&lt;br /&gt;
*If you type &amp;quot;quit&amp;quot; in the real Peasant's Quest, the game shows a different message than the &amp;quot;you quitter&amp;quot; message, and quits.&lt;br /&gt;
*Given the use of &amp;quot;teetotaller,&amp;quot; this email seems to prove that the oft-mentioned &amp;quot;cold one&amp;quot; is in fact an alcoholic beverage.&lt;br /&gt;
*It is impossible to get a negative score in the real game, despite Strong Bad's miserable showing.&lt;br /&gt;
*In [[Peasant's Quest Preview]], it is said the maximum requirements for Peasant's Quest are a 286 CGA enabled PC. The Compy, judging by its name, contains a 386 processor.&lt;br /&gt;
*The positions of the crayon graphics in the first scene are all rearranged when the scene zooms in on Strong Bad's face. &lt;br /&gt;
*If the &amp;quot;Stave it off&amp;quot; song were really looped 50 times (including the pause heard in the email) it would last for 6 minutes, 10 seconds.&lt;br /&gt;
*As Homsar says the word &amp;quot;trendy,&amp;quot; his hat changes in size; first larger, then smaller, then back to normal.&lt;br /&gt;
*Homsar's eyes on the &amp;quot;Whaddaya Know Haddi-man?&amp;quot; logo are mirrored versions of the smaller of [[Bubs]]' eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;All Is On&amp;quot; tune is [[Singing Out Of Tune|not in the same key]] as the lyrics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*Adjusting the contrast while Strong Bad plays Peasant's Quest affects his reflection in the game, but not the game itself.&lt;br /&gt;
*All the Haddi-Man children have shadows except the girl.&lt;br /&gt;
*When Homsar talks after the lowercase &amp;quot;[[g]]&amp;quot; shows up (complete with various head movements and hat flyings, as per usual), his shadow stays still.&lt;br /&gt;
*The real Peasant's Quest game shows the score as &amp;quot;# of 150&amp;quot;, not &amp;quot;# ''out'' of 150&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*If you click on the &amp;quot;All is on&amp;quot; album while the music is still playing it will disappear but the music will continue to play.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The sounds that Homsar makes when he opens and closes the door are the same sounds made by the front door in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad says &amp;quot;HE'S BEHIND THE BOX! I'LL KILL YA!! I'LL KILL ALL YOUR DOGS!!&amp;quot; This is an instance of one speaking of [[Killing Dogs|killing someone's dog]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The fake show hosted by Strong Bad is a spoof of many children's shows; the kids heard shouting the answers to Strong Bad's questions are taken from the [[Nickelodeon]] show [[Wikipedia:Blue's Clues|Blue's Clues]]. Strong Bad's show is actually a strange reversal of Blue's Clues; in Blue's Clues the kids know all the answers to the questions asked but the host is completely clueless, whilst in this email, Strong Bad knows the answers and the kids are clueless.&lt;br /&gt;
*The way Homsar enters and walks closer to the viewer is from the British kids' show [[Wikipedia:Bod (television)|&amp;quot;Bod&amp;quot;]]. This is likely, as [[The Brothers Chaps]] have claimed that [http://www.retrocrush.com/homestar/index2.html Bod was one of their influences.]&lt;br /&gt;
*The noise Homsar makes when he teleports around are similar to noises on the [[PBS]] show [[Wikipedia:Boohbah|Boohbah]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The Guitar Playing Man bears a striking resemblance to folk singer [[Wikipedia:James Taylor|James Taylor]]. Taylor has made numerous appearances on the children's TV program [[Sesame Street]], often singing educational songs.&lt;br /&gt;
*Homsar asking the kids if they want to &amp;quot;hear of [the song] 50 times more&amp;quot; may be a reference to the [[Wikipedia:British Broadcasting Corporation|BBC]] show [[Wikipedia:Teletubbies|Teletubbies]], in which whenever a &amp;quot;real-life&amp;quot; clip is shown, it is always repeated per request of the Teletubbies.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;letter of the day&amp;quot; feature in Homsar's show is reminiscent of Sesame Street, which ends each show with the mock sponsorship, &amp;quot;Sesame Street was brought to you... by the letter __!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*The bizarre way Homsar comes onto the screen from an unseen door in the unseen distance, and the way he jumps around the screen without moving otherwise, is a reference to early Sesame Street skits which were noted for their surreality.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;animated&amp;quot; Homsar's shirt says &amp;quot;If you lived here you'd be home,&amp;quot; bringing to mind the common billboard campaign for new houses under construction, &amp;quot;If you lived here, you'd be home by now.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

===Commentary Transcript===&lt;br /&gt;
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]], [[Ryan Sterritt]] '''on guitar''')&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Ryan's guitar playing throughout the commentary}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' You're listening to the smooth, sultry, sounds of the Strong Bad DVD commentary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Dim the lights, Matt. Who's on lights? Matt are you on lights?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I know one thing for sure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' What's that, Mike?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Ryan Sterrit's on the guitar right now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' ''{over Mike}'' Oooooohhhhhhhh yyyyyyeeeeeaaaaaahhh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' What's that Ryan?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Hey um&amp;amp;mdash; re&amp;amp;mdash; re&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{over Ryan}'' Make it sing. Make it sing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Regarding the P&amp;amp;mdash; the Peasant's Quest thing we&amp;amp;mdash; or&amp;amp;mdash; before the email or just after we went back and added the phrases.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{over Ryan}'' Those two commands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Oh, into the game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Oh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And you'd get the same responses, right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Y&amp;amp;mdash; something like that. Something similar. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Or maybe&amp;amp;mdash; no.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Oh no, that's right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' ''{yelling}'' Check&amp;amp;mdash; Try&amp;amp;mdash; Try it out at home. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Find out yourselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Give it a shot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' I'm sorry. I'm not being sufficiently jazzy in my role.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' No! We're all, uh&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Hey it's all good. It's all hot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Everything&amp;amp;mdash; we're all a family here at Strong Bad Email. This is a little technique I used to make look like crayon drawing Flash it's the&amp;amp;mdash; it's the stippled stroke. There's a stroke in your stroke tool all you Flash animators at home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Stroke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It looks sort of like pebbles. Just do several different layers of it and maybe cut and paste the same layer, move it up a little bit. Instant crayon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{imitating child in the email}'' Christopher Columbus!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Wait&amp;amp;mdash; wait, this is where Strong Bad gets violent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah this is gonna be good contrast to&amp;amp;mdash; here...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. I don't think&amp;amp;mdash; I don't think I wanna watch this part.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Strong Bad! Calm down, man!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' You need to cool out, Strong Bad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Does he say, &amp;quot;I'll kill all your dogs&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Or &amp;quot;all your dolls?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE AND MATT:''' Dogs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' That's what I thought he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He's ang&amp;amp;mdash; he's angry. It's a little rough. There's some kids at home who I don't think could handle that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Yeah. It's like&amp;amp;mdash; it's like the new Star Wars episodes. Not suitable for children. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' That's what I hear. The world's most childish...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Hey Ryan. How 'bout some more finger picking. ''{Ryan plays a little more}'' Thank you. That's ''nice''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' This is a, uh&amp;amp;mdash; this is a sweet intro I think to Homsar's show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah. I really wanna make this show, or at least watch it. I don't want to make it. I wanna watch it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' I like the, um, the construction paper appearance in this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Those kids and that orange&amp;amp;mdash; that orange I wanna snack on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Those kids are diverse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' They are! ''{talks over Mike}'' They're from all over the world, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{talks over Matt}'' There's some diversity in those kids.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Haddi-man is accepting of all cultures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{short pause}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' And fart noises.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{all laugh}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughing}'' I wonder&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' &amp;amp;mdash;like a&amp;amp;mdash; statistical analysis on the number of, uh, fart noises or toilets or something like that delay this 1:30.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''Is'' there?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' I don't know. There's the toilet and the claymation thing that&amp;amp;mdash; there's probably a lot! Not that you guys resort to&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Who's uncle? That's&amp;amp;mdash; that's Ryan right now. Looks just like that guy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' He does! His legs crossed like that!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He's got his legs crossed, tapping one foot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You need to put some socks on underneath your flip-flops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{short pause}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Me! Me! Me! Me! That's my favorite kid that's in the background&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Is he wearing sandals and socks?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I don't think he is, but I always sort of interpreted those weird lines around his foot as that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Hey guys, I'm sorry if I was implying that you guys do a lot of potty humor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah. We're gonna cut this out&amp;amp;mdash; we're gonna cut you out of the DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{all laugh}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' But, I'm not in the DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' You ''are'' in the DVD actually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You are cut out!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Umm&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Nothing to cut.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{short pause}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Keep it going. Keep it going, bro.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Keep it going. Low standard&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' How long does&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT: ''' Let's keep our standardized test scores low this evening, ladies and gentlemen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''RYAN:''' Test scores&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' The Paper&amp;amp;mdash; Ryan, take us home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;{{tbd}}&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally [[The Brothers Chaps]] have put part or all of the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] website on '''hiatus'''. This has been happening particularly recently, especially with [[Strong Bad Email]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Strong Bad Emails==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:lappysplosion.PNG|thumb|&amp;quot;A comeback... or was it?&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
The first long Strong Bad Email hiatus was in between [[email thunder]] and [[hremail3184]], lasting 280 days (nine months and one week). It was the longest Strong Bad gap when it came out, and for a while after that it was slightly more slow than usual, most of the time with one Strong Bad email coming out each month. The last Strong Bad email, [[videography]], came out in October 5th, 2009, and as of now it is the longest Strong Bad email gap in the history of the site. The gap is still going.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2010==&lt;br /&gt;
During 2010, after the [[April Fools' Day]] toon [[Xeriouxly Forxe]] came out, barely any material was produced on the website. Most of the articles presented on the main page were [[Store]] offers.&lt;br /&gt;
There was no [[Halloween]] toon.&lt;/div&gt;</description>

'''Uh... you're Coach Z. No point in beating a dead horse.'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello, I'm ''MeltingObject'', a senseless person. Why you are looking at my profile, I have no idea.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm British, which automatically makes me scum for Strong Bad. It's a bit of a shame, but hey, it'll pass.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the meantime, please accept my spam advertising and take a look at my YouTube channel: [http://www.youtube.com/BlackMagnumFilms]. Thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Right-o, I have some unnecessary pages to create that will be put on consideration for deletion within the first few seconds. Voilà!&lt;/div&gt;</description>

I continue to believe that this does not deserve an article. First of all, the Strong Bad Email hiatus section is already covered on [[Strong Bad Email]], and that's where it belongs, not here. As for the current complete hiatus, I don't think there's enough to say. All there is is &amp;quot;the site has been on hiatus since November 2009, with a brief return for April Fool's Day 2010.&amp;quot; That's pretty much what it says now, and that's pretty much all the potential it has. If the hiatus ever ends, then it might have a spot on [[Acknowledged Update Delays]], but for now, it does not merit coverage. '''Delete.''' {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:09, 27 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I have to agree with Heimstern here, with same reasons. So, '''delete''' as well. {{User:ColdReactive/sig}} 07:05, 27 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::I think it's an interesting article. It does not just cover the Strong bad Email hiatus. I think we should '''keep''' as of now. {{User:MeltingObject}} 07:05, 27 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::My comment didn't only address the Sbemail hiatus, either. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:30, 27 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::For right now, I would agree that this article doesn't have much information on it. However, the Acknowledge Update Delays page has no information on the current break whatsoever, and Strong Bad Emails only says &amp;quot;They again went on hiatus in October of 2009 and have been since then.&amp;quot; I feel that a not insignificant amount of people would come to the wiki to find out about the recent shortage of toons. If we put a few more facts about current projects we know TBC are working on, like Poker Night at the Inventory, I think this might merit its own page, and possibly a main page link as well (to cut down on people posting &amp;quot;Is HR coming back or not?&amp;quot; on talk pages everywhere). '''Keep'''. {{User:Itama/sig}} 06:04, 28 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::I will repeat what I said at [[Talk:Main Page#Hiatus page]]. AUD and this page are entirely different things. The purpose of AUD is to cover instances when, inside of a cartoon, TBC indicate that they know about a delay. This page is, or at least I believe it is, intended to provide fans with information about the delay between major updates. This page could easily be in the HRWiki namespace, and be more aimed at giving users information about the wiki's communication with TBC. I don't think the article as it exists now is up to our standards, but it deserves to exist. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 06:23, 28 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::::An HRWiki-space page on this is totally fine by me. The problem I have is with us writing an mainspace article that's not about content but rather some attempt to explain a lack of content. We don't really know why the hiatus exists; explaining it with things like Poker Night and the Jim Henson movie are actually speculatory (TBC didn't completely stop making cartoons during SBCG4AP, for example). If we want a page to tell confused fans &amp;quot;Here's what we know about what's going on...&amp;quot;, I believe the HRWiki space is the proper place for that. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:29, 28 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::::I think from my perspective it could do with a bit more information, but it sums up the hiatuses okay and I think most of us are satisfied.

I continue to believe that this does not deserve an article. First of all, the Strong Bad Email hiatus section is already covered on [[Strong Bad Email]], and that's where it belongs, not here. As for the current complete hiatus, I don't think there's enough to say. All there is is &amp;quot;the site has been on hiatus since November 2009, with a brief return for April Fool's Day 2010.&amp;quot; That's pretty much what it says now, and that's pretty much all the potential it has. If the hiatus ever ends, then it might have a spot on [[Acknowledged Update Delays]], but for now, it does not merit coverage. '''Delete.''' {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:09, 27 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I have to agree with Heimstern here, with same reasons. So, '''delete''' as well. {{User:ColdReactive/sig}} 07:05, 27 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

:::My comment didn't only address the Sbemail hiatus, either. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:30, 27 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::For right now, I would agree that this article doesn't have much information on it. However, the Acknowledge Update Delays page has no information on the current break whatsoever, and Strong Bad Emails only says &amp;quot;They again went on hiatus in October of 2009 and have been since then.&amp;quot; I feel that a not insignificant amount of people would come to the wiki to find out about the recent shortage of toons. If we put a few more facts about current projects we know TBC are working on, like Poker Night at the Inventory, I think this might merit its own page, and possibly a main page link as well (to cut down on people posting &amp;quot;Is HR coming back or not?&amp;quot; on talk pages everywhere). '''Keep'''. {{User:Itama/sig}} 06:04, 28 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::I will repeat what I said at [[Talk:Main Page#Hiatus page]]. AUD and this page are entirely different things. The purpose of AUD is to cover instances when, inside of a cartoon, TBC indicate that they know about a delay. This page is, or at least I believe it is, intended to provide fans with information about the delay between major updates. This page could easily be in the HRWiki namespace, and be more aimed at giving users information about the wiki's communication with TBC. I don't think the article as it exists now is up to our standards, but it deserves to exist. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 06:23, 28 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::::An HRWiki-space page on this is totally fine by me. The problem I have is with us writing an mainspace article that's not about content but rather some attempt to explain a lack of content. We don't really know why the hiatus exists; explaining it with things like Poker Night and the Jim Henson movie are actually speculatory (TBC didn't completely stop making cartoons during SBCG4AP, for example). If we want a page to tell confused fans &amp;quot;Here's what we know about what's going on...&amp;quot;, I believe the HRWiki space is the proper place for that. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:29, 28 October 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

==Transcript==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing over guitar music}'' I've been walking on clouds and flipping off rainbows, on the wiiiiings of an emaiiil...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a wide view of the desk. Strong Sad is standing to the right of Strong Bad with a classical guitar. Strong Bad turns to face him.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' No prob, Bob.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;lappy email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;subject: alternate univer$e&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Dear Strong Bad, &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Got some ?'s for you: &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. What would you do with a hundred million dollars? &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. What would you do if you suddenly found yourself in &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
an alternate universe somehow? &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Jody (not a girl), TX&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad says &amp;quot;question marks&amp;quot; for &amp;quot;?'s&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;Number one&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Number two&amp;quot; for &amp;quot;1.&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;2.&amp;quot;, respectively.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{says everything inside parentheses normally}'' Ya know, you could probably ditch that (not a girl) thing, if you just replaced it with something tough and cool and kool and tuff. Like (Bulldozer). Jody (Bulldozer). Nobody's gonna think that guy's a girl. ''{clears screen}'' Well Ms. Dozer, you pretty much answered question mark #1 ''{read &amp;quot;number one&amp;quot;}'' with question mark #2 ''{read &amp;quot;number two&amp;quot;}''. Cuz a hundred million dollars is exactly how much The Cheat spent on our alternate universe portal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a wide view of the desk. The Cheat is standing to the right of the Lappy with a blender containing a [[Nintendo]] Game Boy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Isn't that right, The Cheat?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' What? This thing only cost us fourteen bucks? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{agreeing The Cheat noise}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well... that's like a hundred million dollars in... dog years, right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{affirmative The Cheat noise}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{leans towards The Cheat suddenly}'' All right! Mash go on that blender!&lt;br /&gt;

''{Camera zooms out a little as The Cheat presses a button on the blender.  The blender shoots out white bolts as the lighting in the room flashes.  Soon after, the blender stops with the Game Boy intact, and there is a large swirl to the right of the desk.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad's conversion of fourteen dollars into [[Wikipedia:Aging in dogs|dog years]] refers to the often-confused (and inaccurate) folk formula that dogs age seven &amp;quot;years&amp;quot; for every human year.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Rent control|Rent control]] is a policy used in some urban communities where the market price is deemed too high. Rent controlled dwellings are highly coveted in the communities where they are available.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Vaudeville|Vaudeville]] is a style of multi-act theatre that flourished in North America from the 1880s to the 1920s, later succeeded by silent movies. Acts included anything from acrobats to mathematicians and from song-and-dance duos to trick high divers.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Sarsaparilla|Sarsaparilla]] (spelled incorrectly as &amp;quot;sarsparilla&amp;quot; in the flashback scene) is a type of plant used to make beverages, and is a common ingredient in [[Wikipedia:Root Beer|root beer]].  It is more commonly pronounced &amp;quot;sass-parilla&amp;quot; than &amp;quot;sar-sparilla&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;sar-sa-parilla&amp;quot;. It is also commonly misspelled &amp;quot;sasparilla&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
*A freemason is a member of a fraternal men's organization such as the [[Wikipedia:York Rite|York Rite]] or the [[Wikipedia:Scottish Rite|Scottish Rite]]. Other organizations permitting women and/or minors as members (including [[Wikipedia:DeMolay International|DeMolay]], [[Wikipedia:Job's Daughters International|Job's Daughters]], [[Wikipedia:Order of the Eastern Star|Eastern Star]]) fall under the umbrella of [[Wikipedia:freemasonry|freemasonry]], etc.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Electrolyte|Electrolytes]] are solutions of [[Wikipedia:Ion|ions]] (such as sodium and potassium salts) that are lost during [[Wikipedia:perspiration|perspiration]].  Drinks containing electrolytes, such as popular sports drinks, are often used to ease [[Wikipedia:Dehydration|dehydration]].&lt;br /&gt;
*A [[Wikipedia:Supergroup (music)|Supergroup]] is a musical group comprising artists who were previously members of earlier, well-known groups.&lt;br /&gt;
*A [[Wikipedia:Doppelg&amp;amp;auml;nger|Doppelg&amp;amp;auml;nger]] refers either to a creature from folklore that mimics people's appearances as an omen of death, or to the theory that everyone in the world has someone else that looks exactly like them.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Adobe Photoshop|Adobe Photoshop]] is a widely used image editor from Adobe Systems Incorporated. The term &amp;quot;[[Wikipedia:Photoshopping|Photoshopped]]&amp;quot; has come to mean any digital edit done to an image, even if it wasn't done in Photoshop itself. The term is often used pejoratively to say that something is rather obviously edited.&lt;br /&gt;
**At one point Strong Bad says 'cool down on the liquefy button'. There is a liquefying tool on Photoshop which can stretch or distort an image, as can be seen in the portal.&lt;br /&gt;
*Stinkoman calls Strong Bad &amp;quot;big nose&amp;quot;, a derogatory term used in eastern Asia to describe Westerners, whose noses tend to be genetically larger than Asians'. This is also a reference to the anime art style, where noses are less pronounced than most American cartoons, as well as to the fact that Strong Bad has no apparent nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*This email was the longest email when released, almost a full minute longer than [[flashback]] (previously the longest). However, it has since been surpassed by [[retirement]].&lt;br /&gt;
*When Strong Bad jumps down several panels in the Strong Badman comic, he passes a panel containing an explosion (with the word &amp;quot;TADAOW!&amp;quot;), and another panel with [[Strong Badman Characters#Deutschman|Deutschman]] (from [[haircut]]) holding a chain of sausages.  Deutschman is saying &amp;quot;KINDER UBERRASCHUNG!!&amp;quot;, the German name for [[Wikipedia:Kinder Surprise|Kinder Surprise]] (though Uberraschung should be spelled &amp;amp;Uuml;berraschung).&lt;br /&gt;
*The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads &amp;quot;[[Floppy Disk Container#weird dreams|weird dreams]]&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the first time Stinkoman has been seen smiling without laughing.&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the first time the Da Huuuuuudge's voice is heard.&lt;br /&gt;
*This marks the second time in which characters from at least two different universes come together in one universe. The first time was in [[20X6 vs. 1936]], in which The Homestar Runner shows up on [[Planet K]].&lt;br /&gt;
*When the portal appears, along the side of it, there is some pixel disruption, where the individual pixels can be seen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad has [[Lack of Visible Body Parts#Strong Bad's Nose|no visible nose]] [[Lack of Visible Body Parts#Ears|or ears]], despite the fact that those body parts were mentioned in this email.&lt;br /&gt;
*Senor Cardgage is the only one of Strong Bad's alter egos who had been seen talking with him prior to this email, as seen in [[kind of cool]], [[garage sale]], and [[Senorial Day]].&lt;br /&gt;
*This is a rare occasion of [[Strong Bad and Strong Sad's Relationship#Strong Bad and Strong Sad Getting Along|Strong Bad being nice to Strong Sad]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]], Strong Sad is seen writing with his right hand.  In this email, Strong Sad is playing the [[Strong Sad's Guitar|guitar]] [[Left Handedness|left-handed]]. This may suggest that Strong Sad is ambidextrous.&lt;br /&gt;
*When Strong Bad types &amp;quot;Well, Ms. Dozer&amp;quot; he types Ms. (pronounced 'miz', used by both married and single women) but pronounces it 'miss', which is the form of address for unmarried women.&lt;br /&gt;
*If every dollar was a &amp;quot;dog year&amp;quot;, then according to the [[Wikipedia:Dog years|popular formula]], the money would still only sum up to ninety-eight dollars.&lt;br /&gt;
**Conversely, if Strong Bad were correct, each &amp;quot;dollar in dog years&amp;quot; would be worth over $70,000.&lt;br /&gt;
*Frappé is spelled as &amp;quot;Frappe&amp;quot; when Strong Bad talks to The Cheat. It is lacking the acute accent.&lt;br /&gt;
*During the Vector Strong Bad segment, the cartoon's border changes to red.&lt;br /&gt;
*The console in the blender is an original Game Boy.&lt;br /&gt;
*When the mug of root beer appears, the hole is under the hammock; before, it was beside the hammock. &lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar pronounces the word &amp;quot;fruit&amp;quot; without his usual speech impediment.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not all Strong Bad versions were included, missing are: &amp;lt;!-- The page for the cartoon &amp;quot;Loading Screens&amp;quot; has all missing versions, so this should be fine now. Also, the missing made-up animals are not significant enough to list.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Super NES]] version&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Powered By the Cheat]] version&lt;br /&gt;
**[[The Reddest Radish]] version&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Lil Strong Bad]]&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Baby Strong Bad]]&lt;br /&gt;
*During the recording session at the end, Strong Badman's words appear in a speech bubble, but Vector Strong Bad's words do not appear in text as they always otherwise do.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the same scene, the wall's grey spot pattern is made from a single image of dots copied and pasted multiple times.  This results in some half dots appearing between the copied images.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the recording studio, the characters use wireless microphones. While wireless microphones are handy in live performance (to prevent signal loss on a long cable run, as well as to avoid tangling of cables), they are actually rarely used in studio work because cabled microphones deliver truer fidelity.&lt;br /&gt;
*The puppet Strong Bad is the only doppelg&amp;amp;auml;nger Strong Bad visited that did not appear in the ending screen.&lt;br /&gt;
*As Coach Z moves his head during his line in the Black Lodge Easter egg scene, the way the coffee dripping from the bottom of his head is animated makes it look as though the coffee breaks the rules of gravity; it seems to be dripping at an angle.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the Easter Egg with Senor Cardgage, when Strong Bad disappears, his voice can still be heard even though he is probably far away from where Senor Cardgage is.&lt;br /&gt;
*Though Vector Strong Bad's phrase &amp;quot;What it is, my doge?&amp;quot; is supposed to be a bad translation, the word &amp;quot;doge&amp;quot; is an actual word. It refers to a medieval Italian equivalent of a duke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Altuniv1318-1319.png|thumb|&amp;quot;Because, mere mortal... The panels change colors!&amp;quot;.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*At the beginning of the email, Strong Bad's reflection is out of sync with his movements.&lt;br /&gt;
*After cutting to the wide shot showing The Cheat with the blender, the Lappy's screen includes the text &amp;quot;Isn't that right, The Cheat?&amp;quot;, even though Strong Bad didn't actually type it.&lt;br /&gt;
*When Strong Bad first jumps into the alternate universe portal, his stool disappears briefly while he's in the process of warping. It briefly reappears after Strong Bad leaves, but for the remainder of the email, the stool is missing.&lt;br /&gt;
*During the comic scene, the panel below the one after &amp;quot;Because, mere mortal...&amp;quot; has a blue background at first. When it moves to the next panel (&amp;quot;Is rent controlled!&amp;quot;), the background changes to green.&lt;br /&gt;
*Several times during the email, Strong Bad's pants change color from black to dark navy (although the pant legs remain the same color), such as the first scene with Vector Strong Bad and the recording session at the end.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Alternateuniversegoof.png|thumb|And so both Strong Bads entered the &amp;quot;find the missing start line contest&amp;quot;.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*In the &amp;quot;Dig to China with your ears contest&amp;quot; part, the starting line disappears when the camera cuts to the giant mug of root beer.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- Old-Timey Strong Bad's scratch line appearing outside his body in the flashback scene is not a goof.  This is a defining trait of Old-Timey characters appearing in non-Old-Timey universes. See &amp;quot;20X6 vs. 1936&amp;quot; for another example. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*In the &amp;quot;Save The Last Email&amp;quot; song, Vector Strong Bad is behind Strong Badman, yet his white and green lines appear above Strong Badman when talking/singing.&lt;br /&gt;
*Stinkoman does not have any shine on his chest. This also happened in [[Happy Trogday]], prior to this toon.&lt;br /&gt;
*At the end, Strong Bad is missing a layer of black from his pants, making them purple.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fixed Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*When the email was released, &amp;quot;girl&amp;quot; was misspelled as &amp;quot;gir&amp;quot; in Jody's email. This was fixed shortly thereafter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad's intro song refers to flipping [[the bird]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Sad was previously seen playing an acoustic guitar in a [[Sketchbook 2006#SK-2006-03-02|Sketchbook]] entry, although that guitar was a twelve-string. Here he plays a six-string classical guitar.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:HSRTimeMachine.PNG|thumb|Homestar's Time machine]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The alternate dimension machine is a [[Blender#Game Boy in a Blender|Game Boy in a Blender]]. In [[2 emails]], Homestar claims to have made a time machine by sticking a Game Boy in a [[blender]] while the email is fast-forwarding.&lt;br /&gt;
*This is another example of [[mashing]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;In a bulding&amp;quot; &amp;lt;!-- sic --&amp;gt; line, including its accent and pronunciation, is straight from the [[Sketchbook (video)|DVD Sketchbook]] (though it was spelled correctly there).&lt;br /&gt;
*The woman on Strong Badman's television is holding a [[Big Knives|Big Knife]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Doge&amp;quot; is a reference to [[Biz Cas Fri 1]], where Homestar misspells the word &amp;quot;[[my dog|dog]]&amp;quot; (&amp;quot;dawg&amp;quot;) the same way.&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad comments that the &amp;quot;Dig To China With Your Ears Contest&amp;quot; is the &amp;quot;second or third to worst contest I ever heard of.&amp;quot;  The worst contests that originated in children's storybooks are likely to be the &amp;quot;Strongest Man in the World Contest&amp;quot; from the [[Original Book]], and the &amp;quot;Ten Step Footrace&amp;quot; from [[flashback]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Dry T-Shirt contests, dance contests, jumping jack contests are not mentioned because the reference makes more sense if confined to storybook-originating contests.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*The fence used for the puppet Strong Badia set is the same one used in [[Homestar vs. Other Little Girl]].&lt;br /&gt;
*This is another appearance of the [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]] sunglasses.&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad previously mentioned &amp;quot;real fruit smoothies&amp;quot; in [[mascot]], saying that he had promised to buy some for the team if they won the game.&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar Runner's &amp;quot;real fruit smoothie&amp;quot; is another example of a [[concoction]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Stinkoman's line in the song &amp;quot;I hope it's from a girl&amp;quot; is a possible reference to the e-mail song in [[dragon]] (&amp;quot;Every week I hope that it's from a female!&amp;quot;).&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad visits many previous emails in his travels:&lt;br /&gt;
**Strong Badman, his well-drawn abs and Stiny originated in [[superhero name]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Deutschman originated in [[haircut]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Vector Strong Bad is from [[video games]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Stinkoman originated in [[japanese cartoon]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Tiny-handed Strong Bad is from [[flashback]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Keyboard Strong Bad originated in [[crazy cartoon]] and played the same song then as in this email. &amp;lt;!-- This tune and &amp;quot;Grumblecakes&amp;quot; happen to share the same first few notes. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
**Da Huuuuuudge and Sterrance are both from [[animal]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Teenage Strong Bad and the term &amp;quot;strip&amp;amp;egrave;d pants&amp;quot; are from [[highschool]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Senor Cardgage originated in [[kind of cool]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In addition, some of the music accompanying the scenes Strong Bad visits are also reused from other parts of the website. They include:&lt;br /&gt;
**The music from [[action figure]]; later used in [[suntan]] and [[army]] (during the Strong Badman scene).&lt;br /&gt;
**Old-Timey Strong Bad's theme music from [[Parsnips A-Plenty]]; later used in [[50 emails]] (during the Old-Timey scene).&lt;br /&gt;
**[[The Homestar Runner]]'s dance music (also during the Old-Timey scene).&lt;br /&gt;
**The synthesized drum tune from [[Main Page 21]] (during the [[Vector Field]] scene).&lt;br /&gt;
**The music from [[flashback]] (during the [[Original Book]] scene).&lt;br /&gt;
**Keyboard Strong Bad's demo music from [[crazy cartoon]].&lt;br /&gt;
**The music during Coach Z's dream scene from [[A Jorb Well Done]]; later used in [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]] (during the fishing Easter egg scene with Senor Cardgage).&lt;br /&gt;
**The music during Strong Sad's storyboard scenes from [[Sbemail 150?!?]] (during the Coach Z Easter egg).&lt;br /&gt;
*The Easter egg with coffee-drenched Coach Z and the eyeball pear begins exactly as described and storyboarded by Strong Sad in [[Sbemail 150?!?]].&lt;br /&gt;
**The word ''sesquicentenn-email'', (&amp;quot;150th email&amp;quot;), was also coined by Strong Sad in Sbemail 150?!?.&lt;br /&gt;
*The fishing boat, lake and background sounds are all from [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The word &amp;quot;VOIP&amp;quot; is a reference to the [[Visor Robot]]'s sound effect from [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 1]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In the fishing trip scene, [[Strong Bad Smiling|Strong Bad smiles.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Real-World References ===&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Cacodemons]] are evil spirits or demons, the opposite being an angel or &amp;quot;agathodemon&amp;quot;. However, the name cacodemon is better known as the flying, red, one-eyed enemy from the  ''[[Wikipedia:Doom|Doom]]'' series of computer games. The plot for these games involved demons escaping hell via portals.&lt;br /&gt;
*The pronunciation &amp;quot;ohbee kaybee&amp;quot; for &amp;quot;okay&amp;quot; was frequently said by the character Mushmouth on the animated ''[[Wikipedia:Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids|Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids]]'', as well as being used by [[Bill Cosby]] himself in his famous &amp;quot;Dentists&amp;quot; routine.&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[font]] in the comic book alternative universe, known as &amp;quot;Peanuts&amp;quot;, was designed to emulate the style of lettering used in the ''[[Wikipedia:Peanuts|Peanuts]]'' comics.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:She-Hulk|She-Hulk]] is a comic book heroine from [[Wikipedia:Marvel Comics|Marvel Comics]] and the cousin of ''[[Wikipedia:Hulk (comics)|The Incredible Hulk]]''. She-Hulk comics were once noted for their [[Fourth Wall Breaks|fourth-wall breaks]], similar to Strong Bad's comments on the quality of the Strong Badman comic and his ability to travel from panel to panel. These not-always-appreciated gags were introduced by writer [[Wikipedia:John Byrne|John Byrne]], who may be the &amp;quot;genius&amp;quot; Strong Bad ridicules.&lt;br /&gt;
**However, in the commentary to this email, the Brothers Chaps claim they were not aware of this when writing the email.&lt;br /&gt;
*The phrase &amp;quot;maxed and relaxed&amp;quot; may be a reference to the ''[[Wikipedia:The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air|Fresh Prince of Bel-Air]]'' theme song, in which [[Wikipedia:Will Smith|Will Smith]] states he is &amp;quot;maxin' and relaxin' all cool&amp;quot;. Additionally, Smith uses the phrase throughout the series and his own raps.&lt;br /&gt;
*The surreal Coach Z Easter egg is an homage to a famous scene from the similarly surreal TV series, ''[[Wikipedia:Twin Peaks|Twin Peaks]]''. The background for the scene featured red drapes, and the starring character, Dale Cooper, spills coffee on himself, represented here by Coach Z's streaming hat of coffee. The unusual speech used by Homestar, meanwhile, was the hallmark of the scene; the actors actually spoke their dialogue backwards, and the recording was then played in reverse, so that the words were heard by the audience in their proper order (though they still sounded unusual and contorted, just as Homestar sounds here). It seems as though Matt Chapman faked this technique, rather than actually recording his lines backwards. ''Twin Peaks'' was co-created by director [[Wikipedia:David Lynch|David Lynch]], whom Strong Sad cited as an influence in [[Sbemail 150?!?]].  Additionally, the phrase &amp;quot;I'm not at liberty to discuss [...]&amp;quot; is a direct lift from the lines of Major Garland Brigs, a character on Twin Peaks, who is often unable to talk about what he does for a living.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Alonzo Mourning|Alonzo Mourning]] is an NBA basketball player.&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[sound effect]] in the fishing Easter Egg that starts right after Strong Bad says &amp;quot;Wow, a fishing trip with Senor Cardgage!&amp;quot; is from ''[[Wikipedia:Fishing with John|Fishing With John]]''.&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad jumping from panel to panel resembles the game [[Wikipedia: Comix Zone|Comix Zone]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--The Bob the Builder reference was declined. Please do not add it.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--VOIP is a common sound effect, and is not a reference to internet video phones or anything else.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Fast Foward ===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Total Load was seen again in [[Homestar Ruiner]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== DVD Version ==&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Alternate Universe Video|Video of Matt singing]] the song from the email is included as a separate Easter egg.&lt;br /&gt;
*When Strong Bad meets his puppet double, the scene is shown is closeup. The quality is lower than usual, since most DVD releases of Puppet Stuff have the quality improved.&lt;br /&gt;
*The DVD version features creators' commentary. To access it, switch the DVD player's audio language selection while watching.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Commentary Transcript ===&lt;br /&gt;
'''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]], [[Old-Timey Strong Bad]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD:''' I refuse to speak about this SBEmail!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Ohhhh, Old-Timey Strong Bad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD:''' Aren't you glad to see-a me?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Do you go by Old-Timey Strong Bad or are you just Strong Bad?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD:''' I'll go by you with a spine-toothed comb!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Uhh... I forgot&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''OLD-TIMEY STRONG BAD:''' And I'm out!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh! Uh, who was that, Mike?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I don't know. I guess he didn't think he could make it though the whole email?&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I don't know. He said he was refusing to comment on it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I didn't remember that Strong Sad played, uh, backup on the email song.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, it's a sweet&amp;amp;mdash; it's one of the few&amp;amp;mdash; one of the few tender moments between those brothers. When he says &amp;quot;No prob Bob,&amp;quot; it makes me want to cry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' So, it was&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Like those times when we were kids and you would be nice and let me hang out with you and John Radle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' They were few and far between. It was usually just so we could beat you up or pour something on you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Spray something in your eye.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh, Gameboy in a blender, Mike, so that's a reference to&amp;amp;mdash; What email is that? The one where Strong Bad fast&amp;amp;mdash; The one where he fast forwards. 2 emails?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' 2 emails. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look at that!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Whoa!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look at that portal!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Whoa! What a portal! ''{pause}'' Definitely.  Portals&amp;amp;mdash; Anybody that's developing portals right now, in the military or in science needs to stop. 'Cause video&amp;amp;mdash; if video games have taught us anything, it's that a bunch of evil demons from Hell are gonna come out of it, and, kill us all. ''{pause}'' Oh! Of&amp;amp;mdash; In&amp;amp;mdash; In Principal Belving's office!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' So, this email was kind of, you know we had to do something, special for 150.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, definitely. Bring all the Strong Bad&amp;amp;mdash; the various Strong Bads together.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' The many faces of Strong Bad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' The many facets, even.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' This was, uh... we had written a Strong Badman years ago, three or four years ago, that was sort of based on this premise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, he was just gonna get an apartment, and feel like his apartment was gonna help him take over the world, and he'd just have a landlord that he would&amp;amp;mdash; He hits him with ping&amp;amp;mdash; with a ping-pong...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' A ping-pong ball, yeah. Is that in here?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' No.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' No.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It's not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I can't remember. He throws a ping-pong ball&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' At his landlord.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Landlord, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' Yeah. ''{pause}'' Uh, it was just on cable. Whoa. And on Animal Planet. Probably.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' So, apparently She-Hulk was well known for breaking the fourth wall.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And having good writing. ''{laughs}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, too. Which we didn't know.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' Yeah, we didn't know. I just assumed She-Hulk&amp;amp;mdash; I've never read an issue of She-Hulk. One time she was in this Fantastic Four versus X-Men that I got. That's about as&amp;amp;mdash; all the exposure I have.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' I think I read about her in the Marvel&amp;amp;mdash; Didn't they have those Marvel universe, just kind of encyclopedias?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, yeah. ''{pause}'' Good-time parlor tricks! So, back then, people were apparently so easily amused that you could do nothing. You could make nothing appear, and people would&amp;amp;mdash; people would ooh and ahh at you. ''{pause}'' Look, so these guy are buddies, Mike! My doge! That's a reference to a Biz Caz Fri.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, Stinkoman. And to the right!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Your nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh... Oh, look out, Stinkoman. ''{pause}'' Uh... There he goes, rubbin' his head on the ground. He's wearing his Dangerask shades. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Dangerask shades. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Dangeresque. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, it's like, sort of like danger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' What?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Dangeresque. It's means sort of like danger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I was saying Dangerask. That's why I corrected myself. Oh, look, there's Casio head Strong Bad. Oh, look, now, he's in the real world, and in a real Strong Badia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' That's in the next room.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It is.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It's where we play video games.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Mmm hmm. ''{laughs}'' That's all that Strong Bad talks about, is stripèd pants. ''{referring to the vitamin bottle behind Homestar}'' Total Load! Do you think our brother still has some Total Load somewhere in his house. He used to get Ultra-Fuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' Hy-hydro Fuel and Ultra-Fuel?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, yeah. ''{pause}'' What up, Cardgage?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Is Cardgage's hair backwards there?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Probably. I think his hair doesn't follow any&amp;amp;mdash; His comb-over switches sides. ''{pause}'' What game is in there? Weird Dreams, remember that game?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I do remember.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Sometimes, you were inside a giant cotton candy machine. ''{laughs}'' ''{pause}'' Nobody wants to record a hit&amp;amp;mdash; a hit #1 jam with him. ''{pause}'' Hey, we're using a pop screen on our microphone right now, Mike!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' And we're sitting in a room with ceiling tiles on the wall just like that!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It's true. ''{laughs}'' Old-Timey Strong Bad did not like that high note Stinkoman tried to hit. Sterrence is not singing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{pause}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' This is a pretty good song. I like that, uh, guitar going in the background.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{guitar noises}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Da Huuuuuudge ''{pronounces 'the'}'' has a heavenly voice. Who woulda thought?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Senor Muybueno's not in there. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Well, there's a few that it's missing, but this is the, you know&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Those are all the ones that have appeared more than once, probably.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Except Da Huuuuuudge has only appeared once before that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fun Facts===&lt;br /&gt;
*Senor Muybueno is from the [[Strong Libs]] Easter Egg from [[lackey]] and the [[Kicking The Cheat]] Lite scene of [[pop-up]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Occasionally [[The Brothers Chaps]] have put the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)]] website on '''hiatus'''. This has been happening particularly recently, especially with [[Strong Bad Email]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Strong Bad Emails==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:lappysplosion.PNG|thumb|&amp;quot;A comeback... or was it?&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
The first long Strong Bad Email hiatus was in between [[email thunder]] and [[hremail3184]], lasting 280 days (nine months and one week). It was the longest Strong Bad gap when it came out, and for a while after that it was slightly more slow than usual, most of the time with one Strong Bad email coming out each month. The last Strong Bad email, [[videography]], came out in October 5th, 2009, and as of now it is the longest Strong Bad email gap in the history of the site. The gap is still going.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==2010==&lt;br /&gt;
During 2010, after the [[April Fools' Day]] toon [[Xeriouxly Forxe]] came out, barely any material was produced on the website. Most of the articles presented on the main page were [[Store]] offers.&lt;/div&gt;</description>
