== Fourth Wall Breaks? ==

Hey Heimstern, I was just looking around the [[:Category:Articles_needing_cleanup|list of articles that need cleaning-up]] and I noticed that [[Fourth Wall Breaks]] is on there. When you look at its [[Talk:Fourth_Wall_Breaks|talk page]], it says that it's a featured article. Just curious, but why is it a featured article if it's marked for cleanup? -[[User:The Vector Kid|TVK]] 06:17, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
:Well, the problems that need cleanup may have developed after the article was featured, or it may simply be that we noticed problems that we didn't notice at the time of the feature. Note that we aren't quite as strict about the quality of our featured articles as Wikipedia is, also. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 18:39, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
::Gotcha. I'm just used to 'kipedia I guess, but thanks for the update!

== Sandbox thing ==

How do I at least get the CODE for my sandbox thing back after that guy got rid of it? Can you please help me? {{User:Acam30/sig}} 04:46, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
:You can find in [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&oldid=581704 this] revision. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:47, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
::Yes, thank you. I figured it out. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 04:48, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
:::Incidentally, Heimstern's post there points out a useful feature. Namely, you don't have to keep reverting the sandbox to any particular revision (and getting worked up in the process) in order for GreenHelmet to see it. Just use the permanent link. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:52, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

== I should have known... ==

H*Bad was banned here, too. *wry smile* -- Alex H.
:Yes, that's true. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:01, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

== German ==

Marshie is saying "You can't destroy me!". I believe it's from the sbmail candy bar. {{User:Ivoj Nob/sig}} 18:49, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
:Yes. Though that quote had already been translated previously. Still, good work. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:00, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
I speak German. What's that little German contest you got on your userpage? With the language I'm not the best at it, but I could probably live fine in Germany. Es war eine gute Idee sein, daß Homestar Runner in Deutsch als Ihren Benutzernamen. Danke! {{User:Mas12806/sig}} 03:46, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
:I haven't done the German contest in a while. It was basically something where people guess what lines from toons I've written in German. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 07:37, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
:Oh I see. Thanks. Also Sie nicht tun ein jederzeit schnell wieder? {{User:Mas12806/sig}} 22:55, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

== Complaint from Homsarstrongbad150 ==

i already told you peoples why i edited my page is because i thought i never got a reply that mike sent and he was clearly online because i saw him edit a page. most people check their e-mail daily. technically, you're not it's dot com, so you weren't asked to not block me, but i had a good reason this time. on top of that, it ''is'' my page, so why should i not be able to edit it. someone get Q over here. he'll agree that thinking the email was missing somewhere in the internet is a good enough reason to post there. and it is MY page. i should be able to use it. get Q over here. he'll agree. we're buds. he's on my [[User:Homsarstrongbad150#cool users list|cool users list]]. y'know what? i'm going to get Q, and i'm going to see what joeyday thinks of you. yeah, that's right. i'm going to the top, asking the big man. this was one edit, do you get it? i think i never got the reply to my email, so i asked, and now i can't use my own talk page for 2 days. so i did try not to post there. i had a legit reason to this time. that was a good question.

"thanks a lot", says {{User:Homsarstrongbad150/sig}} 03:11, 19 October 2008 (UTC) sarcastically and angrily
:I know perfectly well that you've told us why you edited your talk page. Your reason was not acceptable. The fact that you are having email problems or that Michael did not reply as quickly as you thought he should have does not mean we have to let you use HRWiki as a messaging service. As for your assertion that it's '''your''' talk page, you are entirely mistaken. Your talk page does '''not''' belong to you, it belongs to the entire wiki, and therefore it's subject to all the wiki's guidelines and policies. Your use of your talkpage is a privilege, and, since you abused that privilege, it was revoked. Call for Qermaq, JoeyDay, Tom, whoever to look over my edits and admin actions as much as you want; I believe they stand on their own and that most users will completely understand. You, by contrast, have taken actions that have gotten you blocked for a week. And did you notice that '''no one''' is defending you? That should cause you to think that just maybe '''you''' might be in the wrong, and not me, Phlip, Dot com and others who've warned and taken administrative action against you. Please realize also that if you return to this behaviour after your block is over, you can expect to be blocked again for longer (possibly indefinitely). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:24, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
::Hate to break it to you, Homsarstrongbad150, but Heimi is 100% in the good here. You were not requested to avoid chat on your user talk if it was convenient - you were told absolutely that a consequence was awaiting further misuse of the talk, and when that happened you got that consequence. There's really no wiggle room here. Specific behavior was expected of you, and you didn't demonstrate it. Hopefully in the next days you can cool off a little and come back prepared to follow the standards, policies and guidelines we all share here in order to make it pleasant for all the users. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 07:34, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

== Just wondering... ==

Is referring to someone "n00b" considered flaming? I've been careful to restrain myself, but I was just curious. Something tells me it's not a good idea. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 04:27, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
:I was just going down my user talk page recently and discovered that I left this question unanswered. Sorry about that, I forgot; didn't mean to ignore you or anything. Anyway, I'm not sure "n00b" is always flaming, but it's pretty much never a nice word, so I would advise against using it. "Newbie" can be a nice alternative sometimes, incidentally. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 11:13, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
::I actually prefer avoiding calling attention to it altogether - just say "I know this is new for you" or "It's clear you are like me when I first edited a wiki" or something. Particularly with a 'newbie', one should avoid language that might exclude and might telegraph their possible inferiority. They probably feel like an outsider, and the goal is to make them feel like they are welcome to edit as much as any insider. The language we use should reflect that. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 13:09, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Just for clarification, I have never referred to anyone as "n00b" on the wiki. I'm a good boy. {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 15:33, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

== Heimy vs. Heimi? ==

I never knew it was "Heimi" instead of "Heimy"? Weird. {{User:Sam the Man/sig}} 22:24, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
:YES IT IS HEIMI. NO IT IS NOT HEIMY. THANK YOU. xD I prefer to call him Heimi. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 04:22, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
::Umm, yay shouting? And the reason it's "Heimi" is that it's a German name, and therefore follows the German practice of having "i" instead of "y" (which is largely a foreign character in that language). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:35, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Mkay. That's all I wanted to hear. Thank you. {{User:Sam the Man/sig}} 22:06, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

== Signature Phase ==

*Me again, Heimstern! And since I'm at your talk page, I was kind of wondering about replacing my old user shortcut with a signature just to make it look cöoler. Sorry about the "ö" in cooler. So until then, keep up the good work. -[[User:Umlaut76|Umläut76]] 14:01, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
::You could check [[Help:Signature]]; that would probably have more info than I could give you. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 08:40, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Ökäy. - [[User:Umlaut76|Umläut76]]

== User Subpages ==

We should at least be able to make user subpages like fake tv shows or fake tracks, and stuff. Opinion? {{User:Sylar/sig}} 03:13, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
:No thanks; just wait for the Fanstuff to be back. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 07:34, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

== Monobook ==

I am having trouble changing the logo on my monobook. {{User:Sylar/sig}} 07:36, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
:I'm afraid I don't really know much about that. There's something about it [[HRWiki_talk:FAQ/9#Personal_Logo_Change|here]], if that helps. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 07:54, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

==German Contest==

Are you going to be doing another German Contest, I can speak quite a bit of German, for example:

Hallo! Ich heisse Alex! Ich habe am 24 Februar Geburtstag. Ich komme aus Newcastle Upon Tyne. Ich spiele fussball, weil es prima findet, aber ich spiele Schlagzeug, das ist fantastich! Ich habe keine Haustiere, aber ich hatte gern einen hund.

I couldn't get umlauts and please forgive me if my spelling sucks.

({{User:ALJ123456/sig}} 17:02, 9 December 2008 (UTC))
:It's not too bad, really! Viel Spaß beim Wikiing! {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:10, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

== Hallo! ==

HI! Thanks for being so welcoming! I showed the translation of the names to my friend who is also taking german, and likes HR, and she wants to know if there is a transaltion for Sterrance? Thanks!
-Stark Traurig
:I don't think there would be, no. It seems like it's basically just a proper name that wouldn't be translatable (like Bubs). Incidentally, instead of typing out your username, you can write four tildes (like this: <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>) and it'll add your name and a link to your userpage. Hope that helps! {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:29, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
::-Thanks [[User:Stark Traurig|Stark Traurig]] 18:53, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

== What the... ==

Why did you revert [[:Image:Hremail.PNG|this image?]] I liked the newer version a lot better. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 01:24, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
:I reverted it because you shouldn't have overwritten an existing image with a completely different image, since some people may still want to use the old image. If you want to use the new image, upload it under a completely separate filename. Notice also that Bad Bad Guy is currently using that image on his userpage. By re-uploading that image, you effectively changed his userpage, which I don't think I need to tell you isn't acceptable. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:28, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

== Accel=sockkie ==

Sylar admitted it on IRC that Accel is a fake. So there. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 05:57, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
:Please see my comments on your talk. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:01, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

== double post ==

Sorry about that, not sure how it happened. {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 05:38, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
:Usually when that happens, it means you hit save a couple times and thus the system registered your post twice. It's especially common if the page takes a long time to load after hitting save: you're like "what's taking so long?" and you hit save again, but actually it already got it the first time, and hitting save again causes a double post. I dunno if that's what happened here. In any case, it's no big deal, as it was easy to revert to one post. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:41, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

== Thanks! ==
Hey thanks for blocking that Ren Guy. Me and MichealXX2 kept reverting his vandalism till a sysop like you came! Thanks again!-{{User:Record307/sig}} 01:47, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
:No problem. This sort of thing happens sometime (like that one time in '06 when Lapper and I kept reverting an annoying vandal all night after all the sysops went to bed). Keep it up. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 02:02, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

== Thinking of yooou... ==

Today I saw some kid wearing a sweatshirt that said "HEMI". Like the car or whuteva. And unconciously I think my mind said "HEIMI!!!" really loud and with extra exclamation points. LOL, i felt I just had to share that. xD {{User:Acam30/sig}} 03:46, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
:Huzzah! (Sorry for the delay; was on vacation last weekend and then forgot about this message until now.) {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 10:41, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

== An extremely important issue ==

Is this [http://wuw.clamburger.org/wiki/Dinoshaur%27s_Revenge legitimate German]?

I have no way to tell because I am German-illiterate but you are my German go-to guy okay - {{User:Super_Sam/sig}} 06:46, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
:Not sure what this is I'm reading, but to provide a brief analysis: Of course, the ending line and stage direction, being written in English, are not legitimate German. I suspect (would hope!) you already knew this. The opening line, SB's line and The Cheat's line are legitimate German, except the word "basebell", which is neither a legitmate German nor English word, so far as I'm aware. I find Homestar's line very curious. In and of itself, it doesn't make a grammatical or logical sentence, but leave out that "Hallo" at the beginning and throw in a couple umlauts and some better capitalization, and you've got the title of a duet from Mozart's [[Wikipedia:The Magic Flute|The Magic Flute]], "Bei Männern welche Liebe fühlen". How that fits the context of the rest of this work is beyond me. So, there you go. I guess the answer to your original question is "kind of". {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 07:12, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

== Sandbox deletion ==

When you deleted the Sandbox, you basically erased eleven thousand edits that I can't get back - I timeout before the undelete page loads. Would have been better just to edit the Sandbox to no longer be a redirect. Too late now (hopefully Dot com can fix it?), but just a heads-up for next time. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 02:11, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
:The deletion was accidental because Phlip and I attempted to revert a move at the same time: the result being that he moved it, and then I accidentally deleted it to make way for a move (an incorrect move, since it had already been made). And yes, we can't do anything about it for now, though I imagine DC should be able to. Incidentally, I've just had an idea that might be appropriate to stop this from happening again. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 02:15, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
:: Oooohhhhh... my apologies. I didn't read far enough into Recentchanges to fully comprehend what happened. Sorry for making it sound like you did something wrong. But, yeah, turning off moving was a good plan... shame it didn't happen sooner. --{{User:Jay/sig}}
:::Never seemed necessary until this evening, did it? That's always the way; no one realizes what preventative measures they need until the thing that needs preventing occurs. No problem about misreading the situation, by the way; it was rather confusing. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 02:24, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
:::: I'm concerned. Are the edits salvagable? --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 02:42, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::Let's wait for DC. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 02:43, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::: Who are they? The guys who run Wikia software? Or DC as in Washington? I know you mentioned them, but I want to be clear.--[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 02:47, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::::He means Its dot com. -[[Special:Contributions/132.183.138.49|132.183.138.49]] 02:49, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::::: Okay, thanks. I always abbreviated his name as IDC. Then again, that is internet slang for "I don't care" and then all the stuff gets confused as if he doesn't care and then <big>-Okay, bye</big>--[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 02:55, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

== Re:Forum ==

Yeah, well, I was just really angry that day and I didn't really mean any of that stuff I posted. This probably won't get me unbanned. But, I'm sorry. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 01:37, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

== DELETION!!!!! ==

HOW DO I DELETE A PAGE!!!!!!!!!! I WANT TO HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]]
:Only sysops can delete pages. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 02:53, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
::Man, I really wanted to help with that vandal![[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]]
:::Well, if there are no sysops around, you can use <nowiki>{{delete|Vandalism}}</nowiki> to tag the page. But if there's already a sysop dealing with it, it's not necessary. Also, it's not a good idea to shout and yell when we have vandals around; seeing people react that way may actually make them want to troll even more. If a sysop's around, they'll get to cleaning it up whether you shout or not. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:02, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
::::On a related note, I do hope that you sysops have a way of deleting/surpressing the edits made tonight, since I ''really'' don't want to have those show up in the histories... ick. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 06:04, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::I'll mention it to DC; he can do that sort of thing. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:05, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

== uploads ==

Hey, first of all, thanks for the comment on my talk page. Nice to hear from some old friends. Second, due to my hiatus, I've forgotten how to upload pictures. Can you please give me a refresher course? {{User:LePorello/sig}} 17:54, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
:I may not be the best person to ask that question, since I don't do much with images. Assuming you're using the default skin, the upload file button should be in the toolbox on the left. If you need more help than that, you can ask and I'll get someone to answer your question. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 18:20, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
::you should ask [[User:The Chort|The Chort]]. he seems to know a lot about it whenever i upload a picture. {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 04:25, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

== Question about my banning? ==

It is a perma ban, right?

Just wanting to clarify. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 04:40, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
:Mm-hmm. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:44, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
::That's bullcrap. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 07:28, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Opinion noted. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 07:52, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::::What is with you trying to suck the fun out of anything? I (unfortunately) requested /b/ to eliminate you. However, I don't think the post went through. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 08:37, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::From what I've seen, your definition of "fun" seems to be "posting hostile comments". In other words, trolling. Under that definition, I'll gladly suck the fun out of anything. Though before you continue to accuse me or try to get me "eliminated", I remind you that it was not I who banned you from the forum; indeed, it was done before I even saw the topic you made about me. In fact, the admin who banned you was ready to do so when you sent me that hostile PM on 31 July, about a week before your actual banning. He only didn't do so because I asked him not ban you. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 08:48, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::Yes, I know that you didn't ban me. It's just that since I do not know who banned me. (Nor do I want to know). But the point is, my definition of "fun" is Pokemon and Mario and Kirby and random animated gifs and torturing Sims in The Sims 2 and 3. Does that make me a bad person? Plus, I only "trolled", quotes due to the fact that I believe calling someone a moron isn't trolling someone as they've said it in Homestar cartons, why not here? Like three times. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 10:09, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Is there a reason we're having this conversation? You haven't asked me to do anything, nor have you brought any substantial discussion of my actions (only a vague reference to my "sucking the fun out of" things). If there's something you want to ask me to do or an action of mine you want to intelligently discuss, please do so. If not, I can't see that there's anything more for us to talk about. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 10:44, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Yes, there is. From what you said, the admin who banned me wanted to do so due to the hostile PM I sent you. If I recall, the only hostile part of the PM was "Freaking Nazis". Now, that may seem hostile, but as any intelligent person may say (not saying you aren't) when someone is angry, they do things they regret. Like hitting a woman or starting a fight or saying n____. Also, I have received several PMs since I was banned, and since I'm banned I can't read them. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 10:28, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::You still haven't told me what you want me to do, if anything. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 10:40, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::I just want to be unbanned to read the PMs. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 11:06, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::: From what I understand, you called him, or at least someone, a Naiz. If that was because he speaks German, that's actually just as, if not more offensive as the other N word. You are basically putting him down in a way that is frowned upon in most civilized conversation. Nazis were not good people, to say the very very very {goes on for ten minutes} least. To call someone that, even as a joke, is unnaceptable in my opinion. Just wanted to clear that up. This isn't up to me, but I just wanted to say what you did was wrong. I'll leave this to the people who have the happy power to ban people. L%C3%A4ufer, this is up to you. Do your worst. --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 12:57, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::I was calling him a Nazi because he was trying to make the forums a serious place of discussion where you aren't allowed to really do anything fun on the forums. Just have serious discussion. Which, works for some forums. Forums for a web cartoon it doesn't. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 13:06, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::At this point, we're not willing to unban you, sorry. I understand that people do in fact do things in anger that they later regret, such as your sending me that hostile PM, but that doesn't change the fact that people have to live with the consequences of those actions. Furthermore, it was not one offence but several that got you banned: your calling another user a moron and your hostile reply when I told you not to, the "Freaking Nazis" message and your "Go Funk yourself" thread (which, may I point out, you continued to post in after Homestone Wrecker pointed out that it was going to get you into trouble). Lose your temper once, that might be a minor thing; lose it repeatedly, that's different. The fact that you've continued to be hostile in this very thread on my talk hasn't helped your case either. In short, no, we're not unbanning you at this time. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:43, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::That may be, but as you yourself may be presently aware of, I screwed up my grammar in the last sentence. But, as you may know, if my memory serves me right, I made the Nazi comment in the same PM. Now, most, if not all forums, would do it in this order. Calling someone a moron. Warning in a post. Insulting someone in a PM, simply asking what was wrong and why I did it. Telling someone to go Funk Themselves, a warning, and depending on the severity, a temporary banning of up to a month or so. All aside, I just want to read the freaking PMs. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 13:55, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::What other forums would do is immaterial. We are bound by no forum's convention save our own, and if we're a bit less tolerant of misbehaviour than some others, that is no one's business but our own. As for the PMs, you should have thought of that before you behaved in such a way as to get banned. If you know who sent them to you, have them resend them using another mode of communication. If not, sorry, you're out of luck. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:00, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::I didn't want to do this. I have ordered /b/ to place a DoS attack on the forums. Targeted only at you. They may or may not comply with it and effect anyone. I'm sorry. {{User:Ugozima/sig}} 14:08, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Threatening a denial of service attack goes beyond a mere dispute between us. If you threaten the whole site, you are not welcome here, so I've blocked your account indefinitely. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:37, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::: A DoS? Heimstern, you are eligible to call the cops on this guy! He's threatened to hack you and the site! Don't let his threats go unchecked! This guy could crash the site. Could he actually do this? Can we stop him? --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 15:26, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

== Drama on IRC - I need an adult ==

Could you please ban the user Jicem from the #hrwiki-fanstuff channel? He's been really annoying to all of us for months now and we'd just like a bit of peace. Here's a sample:

<Jicem> Until the Industrial Revolution, it wasn't easy to pick all that cotton and those crops

<Jicem> They needed help

He is talking about slavery. He's also been constantly ranting and raving about his extremely conservative agenda, even after we've requested him to stop. I know you don't have ops on that channel, but could you put in a word for us with the higher ups? That'd be swell. -- {{User:NachoMan/sig}} 19:44, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
:Um, NachoMan, I know I didn't look good when I started out, but if you read all the logs, you know that I was giving a reasonable opinion. Plus, no one ever told me to stop, they just flamed and threatened me. {{User:HRjcm/sig}} 00:35, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
::First, for the record, I've spoken to NachoMan on IRC about this matter, and I believe that I've done everything I can on the matter. Secondly, as a general and purely advisory remark, I'd suggest we all be more sensitive about what we say '''and''' that we all do everything we can not to be easily offended. That's about all I have now. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:23, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

== Oops! ==

Can you rename [http://www.hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Espemon333/Nomination&rcid=637512 this.] I forgot to add the [User:] in front of it. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:34, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
:Please see my comment on your talk. In this case, it's not an issue because that page isn't allowed, anyway. In the future, if you need to rename a page, you can use the "move" tab at the talk of the page. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:41, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
::::Ok. As long as the contest stays. Get it gone, {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:44, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

== Comment ==

That comment that you reverted was a big embarrassment for me. I don't want to show those people who read through talk page archives, and I don't want to look at it every time I look at that archive. --{{User:Fangoriously/SIGGY HERE!}} 01:15, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
:Then I suggest contacting the user who owns that talk page in private and asking him to remove it himself. And besides. How often do people read old talk page archives? {{User:Elcool/sig}} 05:40, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
::What Elcool said, pretty much. It's not something for you to remove once it's been answered and even archived; instead, it needs to be the person who "owns" the archive. I don't think it should be that big an embarrassment; we all make mistakes from time to time, and most people who read it (which, as Elcool observes, is likely very few people, anyway) will likely chalk it up as a newbie error. And we've all made those. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:29, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

== Heim (~dac0358e@wikipedia/Heimstern) Quit (K-Lined) ==

come back Heim, we miss you already - {{User:Super_Sam/sig}} 03:37, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
:This sort of thing happens sometimes because I'm on a public webchat. I gather some other dork-on using it starts spamming, and to stop him, they have to temporarily kill the whole thing. I'm back now. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:14, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

== Notes from Maudi ==

Hi, Heimstern Läufer!

A user named Druelselstein X2000 wants to "improve" those orders of [[Strong Bad|Strong Bad's]] and [[The Cheat|The Cheat's]] commentaries on [[Main Page 15]], and I don't care if that guy's doing at this situation, like messing up with Homestar Runner Wiki. But he wants to ''improve'' the orders of [[Strong Bad|Strong Bad's]] and [[The Cheat|The Cheat's]] commentaries on [[Main Page 15]]. I dare not agree with that user, and I only want [[Main Page 15]] as it is. So... look out with Druelselstein X2000, he can sometimes mess up with Homestar Runner Wiki, but I just don't care of how those orders of [[Strong Bad|Strong Bad's]] and [[The Cheat|The Cheat's]] commentaries on [[Main Page 15]] is, but it doesn't make any sense for us, especially me. So now you are with me also, Heimstern Läufer! :)

--[[User:Maudi Algabban|Maudi Algabban]] 12:29, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

== Summary  ==

For some reason, I really liked your "no Lappy in this email" edit summary! I might like it because of "no Lappy." --{{User:Fangoriously/SIGGY HERE!}} 17:32, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
:Happy to entertain. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:47, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

==Sig Fix==
It's not mine, but [[User:Power Pie/sig|this guy's sig]] doesn't "finish", per say, and now whenever that sig is used, everything after it turns into the same color font. Could you fix it? --[[User:Essence of Ghost Water|Essence of Ghost Water]] 12:31, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
:Never mind, DeFender fixed it. --[[User:Essence of Ghost Water|Essence of Ghost Water]] 12:34, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
::Yup. Incidentally, my talk probably isn't the best place for this sort of issue in the future because I'm pretty much coding-illiterate. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 12:41, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
:::Oh. Well, since there's no way of telling who's on, you're the only sysop I knew that was online. --[[User:Essence of Ghost Water|Essence of Ghost Water]] 12:47, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

== 700,000 Revision WAS Removed... ==

[http://hrwiki.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=700000 this link] says so. Put in a 1 instead of the last zero and you'll see this is an actual way to see any revision, so I'm not making stuff up. {{User:ColdReactive/sig}} 08:51, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
:Assuming that diff ever existed, it wasn't removed by any admin or editorial action, so there's nothing we can do. Besides, as I think you pointed out on your talk, the 700,000th edit is kind of a trivial matter, anyway. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 08:55, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
::Cold Reactive - i think Heimstern already knows about that. i don't think the edit itself was removed. It appears to take two edits to move a page, and then two more to move a talk page. so 699999 and 700000 were combined into one edit, unfortunately numbered 699999, and 700000 was no longer usable. The same thing happened between edits 700011 and 700016. w/e; i'm sure HL can give you a better answer than i can. HL, anything you'd like to add/correct to that? {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 09:01, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
:::Actually, no, I've nothing more to add. Your answer may be correct; I dunno. I actually have fairly limited knowledge of the inner workings of MediaWiki; I just know how to click the right buttons to keep the place running properly. The developers probably know why, but I'm disinclined to ask them over a trivial matter like this. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:10, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

== Self-blocking ==

How do you feel, blocking yourself after nearly five years of a clean block log? {{User:RickTommy/sig}} 03:11, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
:Pretty much the same way I felt before. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:13, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
::Also, there's a question for you on the Main Page's talk page. And on a side note, are you planning on going to Germany sometime? {{User:RickTommy/sig}} 00:49, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
:::I don't really have an answer to your question on talk:Main; I don't really remember things like why exactly I punctuated something exactly how I did, and it's not like anyone needs to know, anyway. (You may recall that it's been mentioned in the past that you ask too many "why" questions that have no answers, this is another one of those.) As for Germany, someday, I hope. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:57, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

== Welcome and milestones ==

Hi, SINJF. Welcome to HRWiki! We're glad to have more contributors. I see that you're particularly interested in Strong Bad Emails, and especially in the current long hiatus. I wanted to let you know, however, that the fact you've added to [[videography]] about a milestone at 300 days has been removed from the article three times by other editors because they believed this wasn't a significant milestone. So if you think this should be added, it would be a good idea to discuss it at [[Talk:videography|the talk page]] to see if you can establish a consensus on this.

Again, welcome to the wiki. If you have any questions, you may feel free to ask at [[User_talk:Heimstern_L%C3%A4ufer|my talk page]]. Talk atcha later! {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 21:22, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

To Whom It May Concern; (aka Strong Bad) 
I'm getting married in August. I'm looking to hire a "videographer" to videotape our wedding. Could you use all your skills and powers and take on such a task? I want it to look real nice. 
Robert McSwain 
Video Media Technologist 
ITS Department
{{compeemailend}}

''{Strong Bad reads "aka" as written, "and take on" as "to take on", and "ITS Department" as "Iiiit's Da Partment!"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Well McSwobert, that works out perfectly, because "videographer" is just one of my many professions that have quotes around them.

''{clears screen}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' I'm also a—

''{A photo showing Strong Bad in his living room wearing nurse's scrubs and holding a chainsaw appears over the scene. It is labeled:}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voice over, still typing}'' "heart surgeon",

''{The photo disappears and another photo appears. This photo depicts Strong Bad in the classroom wearing a lab coat. He's still holding the chainsaw. It is labeled:}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' a "licensed technician",

''{The photo is replaced with an image of Strong Bad at a dining table. A rusty pan with a single chicken wing sits on the table in front of him. Again, he is holding the chainsaw.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' a "poultry farmer",

''{The photo is replaced with an image of Strong Bad at The Field. There is a can of lighter fluid and a can of gasoline on the ground nearby. He's holding the chainsaw again, but the chainsaw is now on fire.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' and a "fireman".

''{The photo disappears.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And you say you're getting married in August? So like, 2 months ago? Also, not a problem. My videograph will have so many fancy wipes, fades, and transitions, your wife will never even know you guys aren't in it! Take a look at my demo reel.

''{cut through static to a miniature screen of Strong Bad in The Field behind a scrolling background with "Demo Reel" written. It disjointedly gets larger until it fills the entire screen}

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hello there. I'm famed quotation marked videographer Strong Bad. ''{The word "Videog-rapher" appears onscreen, taking up two lines}'' Do you like quick zooms and solarizing effects? What about diamondy transitions, pixelated wipes, or slow fade-outs? ''{an example of each of these effects is shown as Strong Bad names them}'' All these effects and more will make your cherished event that happened last month be cherished forever.

''(diamond cut to Locker Room}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Jimmy's lacrosse debacle never looked so good.

''(the screen briefly solarises. Static cut to Strong Bad's shoes at The Field)''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Unintelligible mumbles}'' Little Jimmy is playing lacrosse! ''{More mumbles, the POV briefly switches up to a view of the sun}'' Oh, he scores the winning... lacrosse point! ''{A whistle is heard}''

''{Pixel wipe to three lacrosse sticks being held in the air}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, and his dad was totally there and not at Applebee's! ''{The camera lowers to reveal The Cheat holding the sticks before clock-wiping back to Strong Bad's shoes}'' ''{the text "Good Shot, Johnny!" appears on-screen}'' Good shot, John—Jimmy! ''{the on-screen caption corrects the name}''

''{static cut to The Garage. There are four VCRs stacked on the table. Strong Bad is holding a CD with "Seedy Rom" written on it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Add panache, pizzazz, and pep with a Seedy Rom work of unanimated clip art and copyright-free classical music.

''{Videlectrix Mascot-wipe to a title screen reading "Video Evidence of Homestar & Marzipan's 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, and 10th Anniversary Celebration!!!" Classical music plays}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{voice-over}'' Are you sure this will work, aka Strong Bad?

''{Videlectrix Mascot backwards-wipe to Homestar in his living room}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voice-over; whispered}'' Definitely! Just act like you're celebrating!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{dancing and throwing confetti}'' Oh, twice! I'm a lavish gift-giver!

''{Cut back to Strong Bad in The Garage}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{As he says each name, a tape reading those words appears from each of the VCRs.}'' Weddings? Bar-mitzfvfahs? Bar-Fvfights? First steps? Droopy ''{snickers}'' drawers? ''{a photo of [[Lil' Strong Sad]]'s backside appears.}'' You name it! I'll videographafize it!

''{Cut to Strong Bad in a cowboy outfit at a table}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{in a faux-cowboy accent}'' Take family meatloaf night back to the ooold west! ''{normally}'' Did somebody say—

''{cut to a meatloaf on the table. The image changes to sepia tone as Strong Bad speaks.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —''sepia tones?'' ''{"Here Comes The Strong Bad" theme music plays, and the text "FAMILY MEATLOAF NIGHT" appears over the image}''

'''VARIOUS VOICES:''' ''{voice-over}'' Uh, no. I don't... think so. I definitely didn't.

''{Cut to Strong Bad in the kitchen, with four toasters bearing the current logo of Video Toaster}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And with our new sweet, sweet suite of video toasters, ''{the four toasters pop out VHS tapes, one per toaster}'' your precious memories will have titles that defy the very laws of reason.

''{Cut to a picture of a decoration. The caption "YOUR WEDDING VIDEO" appears on-screen. The word "Your" twirls around in 3D, while a rocket sound plays.}''

'''VOICES:''' ''{voice-over}'' Oooh!

''{Cut to a picture of a rose. The text "The Union of ROBERT McSWAIN: VIDEO MEDIA TECHNOLOGIST and THE LADY HE MARRIED IN AUGUST" appears on-screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voice-over}'' Hopefully that will be enough to keep your wife from wondering why her video media technologist husband wasn't smart enough to think of putting a video camera on a tripod across the room and press record.

''{Cut to Computer Room}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But you could probably also get away with just putting—

''{cut to a shelf of VHS tapes. Two are labelled "blank", and a third is labelled "especially blank". Another with a blue label is titled "Problem Child 1-8"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voice-over}'' —a label that says "WEDDIN TAPE" on a VHS cassette— ''{Strong Bad places a piece of masking tape marked "WEDDIN TAPE" over the Problem Child video's label}''

''{cut back to the computer room}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' —since none-out-of-none couples actually ever watch their wedding video. Unless of course a baby drops an f-bomb, somebody pukes in their toupee, or Grandmaw Auntpaw rolls down the stairs in her wheelchair. In which case you simply post it online and turn it into internet gold! And I can ''definitely'' arrange for some of that stuff to happen at your wedding, if you enlist my services as an "event coordinator." ''{stops typing; the words "event coordinator" shift slightly on each syllable}'' A-heh heh heh, heh heh heh-HEM.

''{The [[Compé-per]] comes up}''

==Easter Eggs==
*Clicking on "Grandma Auntpaw" at the end shows a short clip of Strong Bad showing off his video camera.
*:'''STRONG BAD:''' My state-of-the-art camera has a state-of-the-art microphone mounted right next to the giant videotape motor. So you're guaranteed to hear mostly that, and not what Grandmaw Auntpaw just said on her hundred-and-ninth birthday.
*:''{Title card reading "Grandmaw Auntpaw's 100-Somethingth Birthday Stand-around" appears. Cut to a scene showing a wall and the shadow of an old woman sitting in a wheelchair just out of frame. The recorder's motor plays loudly.}''
*:'''GRANDMAW AUNTPAW:''' ''{barely audible}'' I never loved any of you.
*Clicking on "internet gold" at the end brings up a scrap of paper showing the [[YouTube]] video ID (_Z-C8NU3SVM) for [[Coach Z pukes in dude's toupee]].

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*[[Wikipedia:Lacrosse|Lacrosse]] is a field [[sport]] played with a solid rubber ball and long-handled racquets. The object of the game is to score the most goals by shooting the ball into the net, much like hockey.
*The sport of [[Wikipedia:boxing|boxing]] is sometimes referred to as [http://www.thesweetscience.com/ The Sweet Science].
* AKA stands for "Also Known As".

===Trivia===
*The [[FeedBurner Page#Sbemail - Videography|RSS description]] of this toon is:
<blockquote>'''Strong Bad says''' - A self-proclaimed Video Media Technologist apparently needs to hire me as 'videographer' to videotape his wedding. If I ignore the inherent creepitude that comes from putting 'videographer' in quotes *shudder*, then I'm still left with the fact that a Video Media Technologist couldn't figure out how to put a tripod in a corner and press REC. That's like King Tut asking you to mummify his cat for him, right? That analogy is solid gold!</blockquote>
*On July 14,2010, a full 281 days had elapsed since the posting of this Sbemail, marking the longest ever hiatus between two sbemails.

===Remarks===
*Clicking on "internet gold" originally linked directly to the YouTube video. This was changed later that day.

===Goofs===
*After the camera zooms out in Marzipan's kitchen, the cabinet in the background is gone.
*The "sbemail.exe" text overlaps the Email window for a single frame.

===Inside References===
*Strong Bad's intro references [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|typing with boxing gloves]].

**Strong Bad was last shown with the pan with a [[chicken|chicken leg]] in it, as seen in the "poultry farmer" photo, in [[slumber party]].
*The music played at the beginning of Strong Bad's demo reel is the theme song from the [[Sbemailiarized]] toons.
*Strong Bad's wallpaper is one of the [[wallpaper]]s from the [[Downloads]] page.
*The music that plays during the meatloaf night scene is the theme song to "The Strong Bad", which was introduced in [[pizzaz]].

*Several [[VCR]]s are hooked to [[Laser Lemon|The Cheat's oscilloscope]] from [[coloring]].
*"Seedy Rom" is a [[homophone]] of "CD-ROM".
*"Dropping an F-Bomb" is another reference to [[Swears|swearing]].
*One of the transitions is the [[Videlectrix]] mascot.
*Homestar exclaims the word "[[twice]]".

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' This is just a steak sandwich, isn't it?

''{Cut to a rear view of the desk, as Strong Bad looks at the sandwich.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, I guess I'm a little... out-of-practice with this stuff. ''{to the Lappy}'' All right, Lappy, you can stay alive for at least one more week.

''{He pushes the sandwich aside and returns the Lappy to its rightful position. He opens the Lappy and a startup tone is heard. Cut to behind Strong Bad. The Female Lappy is visible.}''

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' Another week with you, Strong Bad, is like 8 dog-weeks in cat-years.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, are you sure you're not Senor Cardgage's computer?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' ''{from offscreen}'' No...

''{Cut back to show Senor Cardgage standing near Strong Bad, holding the sandwich. Strong Bad is smiling.}''

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' This steak samwich is Beverly ''clearly'' my complooter, Bathsheba.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{still smiling}'' Hey, Cardgage! D'you wanna help me come out of e-tirement?

'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' Ummmmm... no.

''{Strong Bad lowers his head in disappointment. Senor Cardgage turns around and starts walking in place while his hair gets slightly blown, and sounds of traffic are heard. Strong Bad looks up in confusion, and starts to nervously lean back.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{sounding uncomfortable}'' I'm quite scared right now.

''{Cut to the Lappy as Strong Bad turns back to it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's start over. ''{types "strongbad_email.exe"}'' Oh, man, I haven't checked my email in so long, I bet there's gonna be a half-zillion messages waiting for me!

''{He presses Return. The following comes up with a ding: "Oh, smokes! You have 2 new messages!", which are "Coolness" from "Kelly" and "Thanks for loaning me your rake" from "Homestar".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Well, a half-''four'' messages waiting for me isn't bad. ''{He brings up "Coolness".}''

<blockquote class="lappy email"><div>subject: coolness</div>
Dear Strong Bad, 
What was the coolest explosion you ever saw? 
 
From, 
Kelly 
USA
</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad echos his own name. He says Kelly's name in a slightly seductive tone, leading into "USA" as "Oosa".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Mmmm! An exotic lady from the far east! ''{typing}'' That's kind of a vague question don'tcha think? That's like me asking, "Dear Kelly, what's your favorite molecule of air that you've breathed?" ''{not typed}'' Or... ''{clears screen, typing:}'' "What's your favorite Strong Bad muscle that you wanted to rub with hot oils?" You gotta narrow it down somehow. Like, do you wanna know about the coolest looking explosion I ever rigged up in Strong Sad's org-ethnic breakfast pouch on a Tuesday?

''{Cut to the kitchen of the Brothers Strong. Strong Bad is pretending to eat from a cereal bowl with a spoon. Strong Sad is standing next to him, wearing a tuxedo, and looking expectantly at a toaster.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{poorly acting}'' Mmm. This cereal is sooooo cerealy.

''{The toaster pops up a breakfast pastry with a conspicuous red light on it. Strong Sad catches it. Over the next line, the light begins to blink faster and faster while making ticking noises.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, child! I am gonna enjoy this saag paneer Pop-Tart with a vengeance! Then I've got to go stand around in this tuxedo with a ven— OOOHHH!!

''{The Pop-Tart explodes into green goo, which gets all over Strong Sad and leaves a couple of green stain drips on the camera.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Waa-ha-ha-ha-ha!

''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Or do you wanna know like, the coolest explosion I ever saw that had one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings around it that've become so popular lately.

''{Cut to Strong Bad in his bathroom, holding a newspaper.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' 'Cuz I've caused ''plenty'' of those.

''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But the coolest part was actually later on, when I was telling Coach Z all about it.

''{Cut to the Athletic Field. Strong Bad is talking to Coach Z.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And so first, there was this little explosion, that was like, "Dooooooj!" ''{some drops of spit fly away from him toward Coach Z}''

'''COACH Z:''' Ya don't say?

'''STRONG BAD:''' And then secondary charges blew and it was like, "Ka-plssshhhhh!" ''{more drops of spit fly toward Coach Z, who draws back}''

'''COACH Z:''' You say?

'''STRONG BAD:''' And finally one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings that've become so popular lately shot out, and was like, "PSSSSSSHHHHH!!!!"

''{Strong Bad draws out the explosion. A wave of spit drops flies toward Coach Z for nearly eight seconds. As Strong Bad continues the explosion, Coach Z pulls out a bar of soap and a bottle of "PORT PLUS +". He rubs the soap on his body and dumps some shampoo over his hat. He then tosses the bottle away and rubs his hat, which becomes sudsy.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Thanks for the great story, Strong Bad! I was gonna hit the showers, but now I don't has to!

''{Strong Bad spits a few more drops toward Coach Z. Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Everybody knows that the more spit it takes to describe an explosion, the cooler said explosion was. ''And'' the cooler said explosion-talker-abouter is!

''{Cut to Strong Sad talking to Coach Z in the Athletic Field.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' And then my saag paneer Pop-Tart said-a, like... "Ptoo."

''{A single large drop of spit flies toward Coach Z.}''

'''COACH Z:''' ''{angrily}'' Are you kiddin' me? I can't even warsh my hands with that mess!

''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But if history has taught us anything, then we all know that the coolest explosions have come from my very own computers.

''{A quick montage results where the Tandy explodes, throwing Strong Bad back, Strong Bad knocks the Tandy off the desk with an inexplicable explosion, Bubs' shotgun blows a hole in the Compy, Strong Mad gulps from a mini-explosion from the Compy, and the Tandy explodes in a green pixelated mushroom cloud with Homestar nearby. Cut back to the Lappy, with the female Lappy visible.}''

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' But waimt, Strong Bad, does that means?

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm afraid so, sweet Lappy. I figured that USB self-destruct button I bought a couple weeks ago woulda clued you in.

''{Cut to a closeup of a big red button with "dooj" written on it, connected to the Lappy via USB. Then cut to a rear view of the desk.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' But... it's time. ''{Cut to behind Strong Bad}'' Why wait around for someone else to blow up your computer tomorrow when you can blow it up yourself today?

'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' You should put that on your bwees-ness cards.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{sadly}'' That's a great idea, Lappy. ''{cut to rear view of the desk}'' Good bye. ''{presses the button}'' Dooj.

''{Cut to a silhouette of the house with a tree beside it. The explosion knocks the tree away and blows the roof clear of the house. Two shockwaves appear as part of the explosion. A ghostly image of the Female Lappy icon with fangs appears in the explosion.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So popular lately.

''{Cut to Bubs and Coach Z on lawn chairs, watching the explosion.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Oooooor! Awwwwwr! 
'''BUBS:''' Ooooooh! Awwwwww!

'''COACH Z:''' I can't wait till Strong Bad tells me 'bout that one. I'm'a go ahead and strip down to da nude!

'''BUBS:''' ''{pointing at Coach Z}'' Ponk!

''{Cut to Strong Bad, standing next to the desk. Strong Bad himself is unharmed, but the desk it broken in two from the explosion, and the paint has been torn away.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And now that—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{poking in from the side; quickly}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' —is what I call—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{more angrily; still quickly}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' —a—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{disappears off the side and reappears upside-down}'' Don't call it a comeback.

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{jumping forward on his knee}'' —comeback!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{disappears and reappears rightside-up, makes an annoyed sigh}''

''{Homestar disappears while Strong Bad looks upward.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, if a paper survived that, maybe come down... now?

''{Black ashes fall from the top of the screen. Strong Bad looks down at them.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Looks like I need a new one of those, too.
