The '''Visor Robot''' is a futuristic robot that was invented by [[Strong Bad]] while making up stories at the [[Homestarloween Party]]. In [[Strong Sad]]'s version of the story, the robot had a human brain which belonged to an old man who was the father of [[The Sad Kids]]. Inside the robot's head there is a red light bulb that makes the visor light up when talking. His voice in [[Everybody to the Limit]] comes from Macintosh's Zarvox, while his voice in [[Senor Mortgage]] is derived from [[Wikipedia:Microsoft Sam|Microsoft Sam]]. In his testimonial, he claims that the mortgage company helped consolidate his "whole life into this tiny box." He has been known to shoot lasers out of his visor with a loud "VOIP".

The Visor Robot has never been unambiguously named on the website: Strong Bad referred to it as "the robot" in his story, and later [[Senor Cardgage]] called it "Valerie" (a name the robot later denied) in a commercial for [[Senor Mortgage|Senor Cardgage Mortgage]]; it also appeared with the label "[[fhqwhgads]] robot" in the [[Sketchbook 2005#SK-2005-04-28|Weekly Sketchbook]] after its brief appearance in [[Everybody to the Limit]]. In the [[Everything Else, Volume 2|DVD]] commentary for [[Homestarloween Party]], [[The Brothers Chaps]] revealed that although they never specifically named the robot, they now refer to it by the name Visor Robot because of the longtime usage of the name by this wiki.

[[Stinkoman_20X6_Enemies#Bosses|Stlunko]], a boss from the game [[Stinkoman 20X6]], bears a strong resemblance to the Visor Robot. Therefore, it is possible that Stlunko is the Robot's [[20X6]] counterpart. The Visor Robot also bears a resemblance to [[Wikipedia:Maximillian (The Black Hole)|Maximillian]], the evil robot from the movie ''[[IMDb:tt0078869|The Black Hole]]''.

== The Amazing Amazement That is the Life of Strong Awesome, [[retirement|Lalalalalala!]] ==
.....Eh, it'll work, i s'pose. Makes my average life sound cool. 
 
Greetings, fellow HRwikians! I am StrongAwesome, or, as "real-live" people call me, Matt. You may also call me Matt if you please. I currently reside in the State of [[the bet|Mish-E]][[original|E-gan]], and.... that's pretty much it. 
I have a variety of interests, such as the following:
*[[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner,]] obviously.
*I enjoy a myriad of classic music, such as
**The Rolling Stones
**Styx
**The Kinks
**The Police
**The Beatles
**Pink Floyd
**Led Zepplin
**And More
*My favorite books are the [[Wikipedia:The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy|Hitckhiker's]] series. I enjoy some [[Wikipedia:Watchmen|Watchmen]] and [[Wikipedia:Artemis Fowl (series)|Artemis Fowl]] at times too.
*My life is spent mostly on [[Special:RecentChanges|here]] and [http://www.reddit.com/ here].
*And anything else similar to that.

== How I found Homestar and The Wiki ==
I went over my friend's house, and he was playing [[TROGDOR!]], which looked pretty cool. As I ventured home, I went on the website he was on, and watched the [[Cool Things|Latest toon.]](at the time.) I was instantly hooked. The hilarity of those dumb animal characters [[Hremail 7|never ceases to amaze.]]

=The Story Of H*R=
----
Warning: '''''Be advised that the following section is a joke (hopefully), and does not represent the views of anybody cool. Oh, except me. I'm cool.'''''
----
''The following is an excerpt of the book "2 to 3: The entire history of the world between 2000 and 2999", written in 3026 by Μαθθαιος Kgapnam.''
<blockquote>

Another thing that had began just before 2000 was [[homestarrunner.com]], the fortress created by the brothers of [[Matt Chapman|Matthew]] and [[Mike Chapman|Michael Chapman]]. It housed the deities of a tall, athletic person named [[Homestar Runner]] and his arch-rival, [[Strong Bad]]. The fortress frequently released strange things called "[[toons]]" to entertain the populace and to contact the deities. The first decade of the 21st century was all about homestarrunner, shortened as "H*R", so popular in fact that a man named [[User:JoeyDay|Joshua Dal]] founded an entire country with their national religion to worship this cartoon show, named [[Main Page|HomestarRunnerikiW]]. The "HRwikians", as they were called, spent every single waking moment documenting every single thing that was involved in H*R, that the {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} documents that they created could wrap around the world 138 times if they were all lined up together. 
 
H*R created a large array of things that the world began to use in everyday life. The skill of [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|typing with boxing gloves on]] was first dreamt of in H*R, and thanks to Steven Q. Esquire in 2375, the practice is now done by 85% or today's households. At the dawn of 2003, a [[Beefy Arms|beefy armed]] dragon named [[Trogdor|Jrogfor the Lurninator]] threatened to destroy the fortress, but Strong Bad tamed the beast as a pet. In 2008, The Chapman Brothers (or TBC) invented a company known as "Tale Games Tell", and they in turn, with the help of [[Videlectrix]], a mystical orc TBC raised, created the world's first video game, SBCG4AaoP. This was an acronym for "Super Bodaciously Carving Game For Aardvarks and other People." The game starred Strong Bad, who had recently defeated Homestar Runner in a great battle and was more popular with the pesants. The players goal was to try to handle the [[style]] and awesomeness of Strong Bad, which was a very challenging thing to do. 
 
Sadly, the great empire of homestarrunner.com was not a long rule, and ended after a decade of hilarity. Late in '09, a new heir to the Chapman throne had been born of Matthew and his wife. After that, hardly any toons were released, and the streets of HomestarRunnerikiW were quiet and barren. Many HRwikians moved away, losing hope. A few stayed in the nation, believing that the gods would soon answer their prayers. No answer. To cheer themselves up, the remaining HRwikians attempted to view old toons, but a few toons [[HRWiki:Toon_loading_problems|refused to work.]] Soon, all of the toons were malfunctioning, and the HRwikians had no way of contact to H*R. 
 
No one knows what became of H*R, nor the inhabitants of HomestarRunnerikiW. But one thing is for certain. The town, and H*R, live on in the hearts of those whose hearts were frozen at the time of H*R's rule.

Z' ShopChan

Strong Awesome — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 19:47:37 GMT

Strong Awesome: rv; unfortunately we don't know its serial number.

[[Image:Shopchangeneric.PNG|thumb|"It's more important that I establish what I ''don't'' want for Decemberween."]]
[[Image:Zshopchanlogo.PNG|thumb|Z' ShopChan]]
'''Z' ShopChan''' is a TV shopping network hosted by [[Strong Bad]] and [[Marzipan]] in the [[Shopping Network Studio]]. It is shown in [[what I want]], when Strong Bad tells what he ''doesn't'' want for [[Decemberween]].

It heavily resembles shopping networks such as [[Wikipedia: QVC|QVC]].

==Items Sold==
===Ornaments===
Strong Bad states that ornaments are the "perennial all-star of bad awful Decemberween presents", seeing as they are presents that cease to be useful the moment they're opened, and have to be put away for another year. Marzipan describes giving an ornament as a gift as saying "I have no idea what your interests are."

===[[Dancin' Musical Nobots]]===
Strong Bad describes Dancin' Musical Nobots as "the kind that you accidentally activate by getting too close." He criticizes them for barely allowing you to hear the song that they are playing over the plastic gears and motors clanking together. Marzipan states that the presents scream "I stopped at the drug store on my way over."

===Homemade Gifts===
Strong Bad states that homemade items are all about "the false notion that just because you made something yourself, it's not a worthless piece of crap." It is also stated that gifts that are both homemade ''and'' an ornament are known as "anti-gifts", and that you actually have to pay a person who gives you one of those.

==Transcript==
===Marzipan's Greeting===
'''MARZIPAN:''' Hi this is Marzipan. I'm off volunteering in the Coches Mountains, teaching the heathens how to bend pipe cleaners. I'll be back in—

''{Strong Sad's arm appears and he presses the "record" button.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Sorry, Marzy.

''{Cut to full view of Strong Sad in front of the table.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Time to exercise one of my favorite perks of house-sitting!

''{Strong Sad presses the button again. Cut to shot of the answering machine.}''

===Strong Sad's Greeting 1===
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{rolls R}'' Grrrreetings weary telephone traveler. I sense you have come in search of Marzipan, but you have stumbled upon so much more. 'Tis I, Strong Sad, house-sitter extraordinaire. Please organize your thoughts for Marzipan in order of least depressing to most depressing. As for crank calls, allow me to give you a theme: furtive glances.

''{Strong Sad presses the button again. Cut to full view of Strong Sad in front of the table.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{puts hand on head}'' Ugh, too verbose. Come on, Sads, ''{smacks belly}'' quick and to the point! In and out! Hook 'em and cook 'em!

===Strong Sad's Greeting 2===
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{rapping}'' Marzipan be gone! Strong Sad be here, so drop your purpose in mine ear! I'll pass it on before too long—

''{Strong Sad presses the button again. Cut to full view of Strong Sad in front of the table.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Let's pretend that never happened.

''{Strong Sad presses the button again. Cut to shot of the answering machine.}''

===Strong Sad's Greeting 3===
'''STRONG SAD:''' Hello, this is Strong Sad, temporary steward of Marzipan's domicile. Please leave your jumbled message at the tone, so I can articulately reword it in journal form for Marzipan to read upon her safe return.

''{Strong Sad presses the button again. Cut to full view of Strong Sad in front of the table.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Good enough for guv'ent work I say.

''{Cut to a black screen with red lettering reading "SOON..."}''

===Message 6===

'''STRONG BAD:''' Wait, what? Hold on, I wasn't prepared for this. Just gimme a sec. ''{Writing noises, paper turning, and Strong Bad mumbling in the background}'' Okay, I'm ready. Yes, this is... ''{very long and drawn out}'' Strooong Baaad calling for... Strooong ''{pause}'' Saaad... uh, I'm gonna knee you in the face... for breakfast? Hold on, let me reconfigure and call back.

===Message 5===

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, Ella Phantzgerald. I left some of my stuff over at Marzipan's the last time she always had me over there for dinner all the time. So when you come home, could you be sure to grab my Marzipan's TV, my Marzipan's guitar and amp, and oh yeah, my Marzipan's cash and her jewelery. ''{A silhouette of Strong Bad carrying a large object walks across the screen}'' If you do, the chance of dead things in your bed drops into the 42 percent range!

''{Zoom out to reveal Strong Bad carrying a large [[Instruments#Amplifier|guitar amp]] with jewels hanging on the corner. Strong Sad is standing next to the answering machine.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, you can ignore that one.

''{He walks off the screen. Cut back to answering machine.}''

===Message 4===

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Dang, Marzipan, you sounding fine. You sound finer than the fine you get when you return a movie late to the movie store!

''{Zoom out to reveal Homestar standing next to, and facing away from, Strong Sad and the answering machine. Strong Sad has a disgusted look on his face. Homestar is actually speaking as opposed to the sound being a recorded message.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You're even sounding finer than a three dollar fine for new releases! Maybe I should swing by for a lit—

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{Hands on hips, yelling at Homestar, angrily}'' That is ''quite'' enough!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{Turns around, surprised}'' Oh! Marzipan! ''{Dejected}'' You look, um, gray... -t. Is that a new... skin you're wearing?

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{angrier}'' It's Strong Sad!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' It is! It is strong sad and strong unfortunate what happened to your face! ''{Gets right up in Strong Sad's face}'' Ooh! Pyoww!

''{He runs off-screen, then runs back on, and gets back in Strong Sad's face}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Call me! Pyoww!

''{He runs off-screen again}''

===Message 3===

'''COACH Z:''' What a crock! This is not what I plunked 9 bucks in quarters into a broken pay phone to hear! Strong Sad, remind me to kick your shins unmercifully next time I see ya! And also, ya think the five hundred feet from Marzipan's house thing still counts if she's not in it? Cause I cop some sweet gooseflesh when I hit that four hundred 'n ninety-seven foot range. Ooh! Creeped myself out there. Gonna hang up!

===Message 2===

'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{Munching}'' What? Sorry, I didn't hear your outgoing message. I was choking down a chocolate-dipped tapeworm. Anyways, agent Panzimar, about the plot against S. Sad, things are moving along just as planned. Hit a snag with step 2, though: the camel died and was decidedly undelicious. Will move forward with barrel of hot sauce approach. Provided that makes it past dinner time, look for my signal in the northwest sky. Ting of Kown, out!

===Message 1===

'''MARZIPAN:''' Strong Sad! What did you do to my outgoing message? Those things are like my adopted foreign babies! Anyway, I forgot to tell you that a guy named Slick Somebody called from a place called—

''{Cut to wide shot of the room. Strong Sad is gone. There are foot imprints are in the carpet where he stood.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' —Marzipan's Stupid Face plumbing, and said he replaced my toilet's Roman candle valve? Whatever that is. So maybe don't flush the toilet until—

''{From offscreen, Strong Sad flushes the toilet and several explosions go off. Several flashes are seen and toilet water splashes onto the floor.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{weakly}'' Ohhh...

''{Cut back to the answering machine.}''

==Easter Eggs==
* After listening to all the messages, click on the tape deck to hear Bubs.
: '''BUBS:''' Marzipan, it's Bubs! You're three weeks late on that movie rental, lady! And that V. I. Warshawski still counts as a new release! That's three dollars a day! Plus, what's wrong witcha voice? You sound all fat, depressing, and Allan Poe. And you're gonna be ''real'' po' if you don't pay that late fee! Heh heh heh. Shop at Bubs'!

Talk:Overlapping Voices

Strong Awesome — Tue, 18 Jan 2011 23:42:43 GMT

Strong Awesome: My opinion.

Is this really an interesting page? I mean, none of these things seem noteworthy. So what if the voices overlap? We don't note every time the letters T and I are in a word or why Titanic isn't mentioned in this cartoon. I'm truly sorry to say this, I really am, but this page just screams [[HRWiki:Spoons|spoon]] to me. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 21:50, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
:Um... I'm not sure what planet you've been living on where it doesn't defy the laws of physics for someone to say two separate words out of their mouth at the same time, but here on Earth, it's considerably less common than the letters T and I.--{{User:Johnny Jupiter/sig}} 22:31, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
::I'm on the fence with this one, mainly because all the examples are singing, when it's used as a fancy effect. If someone was just having a regular conversation and they started speaking different words at once, I'd be okay with that. But I don't believe that that has ever happened. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 23:42, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

'''Page Title:''' Compy 386!!

{{dvd|strongbad_email.exe Disc Three}}

== Transcript ==

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Driving down the strip in my cool cool car, checkin' all the emails out!

''{reading}''

<blockquote class="compy email">Hey Strong Bad! 
 
Whatever happened to that "No Loafing" 
sign you used to have? 
 
Ryan, CO</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad reads "CO" as "Co... colo-colorado."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, great question, stupid! Here's an answer. ''{typing}'' The year was 1987, not a very good year for productivity. And as a result, productivity was down something-eight percent.

''{A pie-chart, circa 1987, falls down displaying the productivity rating}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I realized things were gonna spiral out of control unless I gave them a little jumpstart. A sign that said "No Loafing"—

''{A picture of Strong Bad standing by the sign appears}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' —was the answer. ''{clears screen, continues typing}'' But that was a long time ago. I suppose ol' Loafy might be losing his edge. Maybe I should put up some of those inspirational posters and stuff to get things back in gear. You know, the kinds that have ''{stops typing}'' like ''{resumes typing}'' whales or sunsets or windsurfers on em. And they say stuff about determination and giving a care.

''{Cut to the garage. Strong Bad walks in on Strong Mad and the Cheat sleeping under the "No Loafing" sign next to a [[The Smashed Muffler|beat-up muffler]] and a length of pipe. He has a bunch of posters under one arm.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You guys are pathetic.

'''STRONG MAD:''' Dah?

'''STRONG BAD:''' Have you forgotten what got us here?

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{questioning The Cheat noise}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' No Loafing got us here!

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{indifferent The Cheat noise}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Take a look at these bad boys and get back to work!

'''STRONG MAD:''' Dah!

''{Strong Bad begins posting the posters. The first one is a picture of a whale's tail sticking out of the clouds and it is captioned "Remember the 'tivities: Creativity; Productivity; Activity; Get Back To Work."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' This one's got like some kinda whale...in space...

''{He puts one up that has a picture of a windsurfer and the caption "Failure is not a four-letter word."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And this one talks about cussing...

'''STRONG BAD:''' And this one's incredibly inspirational...

''{He puts one up with a picture of a guy jumping out of the water and it's captioned "I HAVE FRIENDS! Keep working, little man"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...with the bursting waters...

''{He puts up a framed picture of a dog captioned "The Cheat, watch your freakin' back, Squeaky."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Here's one a-those hush puppies. They'll make you work for it.

''{He places a wood-burning with a horse on it on the wall. It is captioned "The loneliest goat sees the last sunset last..."}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' And this wood-burny thing's got some kinda old adage on it. About goats.

''{Strong Mad instantly leaps up with a yell. The Cheat tosses him the pipe, which he uses to smash the muffler.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Excellent! That-a way, boys! Chins up! Tifle down! And so on...

''{Strong Bad walks back to his computer}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Well, whoever, I see I've gotten things back on track. Sounds like I deserve a three-hour lunch. I'ma head over to Bubs' for one of his 30-cent lunch specials.

''{Strong Bad puts a sticky note on the screen reading "out to lunch, then appointment, then something else" and leaves. [[The Paper]] comes down.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
[[Image:Bubs lunch special.PNG|thumb|Out to lunch]]
*At the very end you can click on "lunch specials" to see [[Bubs]]' lunch specials:
** 2 buffalo wing bones (hot)
** A cup of ice
** A half-eaten candy bar
*Also at the end you can click on the word "appointment" on the Post-It to see exactly what that appointment was.

:''{Cut to Strong Sad's room. Strong Sad is in bed.}''
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{jumping up and down on Strong Sad}'' I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you.
:'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Ooh! Ooh! Ow! Ooh! Oh!

== Fun Facts ==

===Trivia===
[[Image:No Loafing!.PNG|thumb|right|Ol' Loafy in the late-'80s.]]
*When the picture of Strong Bad pointing to the No Loafing sign in 1987 flashes up, the screen of the [[Tandy 400]] reads:
<blockquote class="tandy email" style="background-image:none">Dear Strong Bad, 
I like your wallpaper. 
 
-Mendelev</blockquote>
:The wallpaper shown is done in the style of a typical '80s home, complete with pears and two other angiosperm flowers.
*In an earlier version of this e-mail, this spot contained the same screen seen in [[little animal]] right up until Strong Bad calls the Cheat over.
*The [[Charts|chart]] reads: Productivity 5%, Loafing 95%. Hence the sign.

===Remarks===
*Strong Bad's arms are too short to reach the tops of the posters as he puts them up.
*Instead of being in its original place above the computer desk, the [[no loafing sign]] is in the top right-hand corner.

===Goofs===
*When the picture of Strong Bad in front of the Tandy comes up, the green lines on the Tandy are moving, even though it's supposed to be a photo.
*When Strong Mad takes hold of the pipe and his hand is up, he has five fingers. When his hand is down, he only has four.
*When Strong Bad puts up the poster with the bursting water it is not covering the "NO LOAFING" sign, when the view zooms out the poster seems to be covering the "NO LOAFING" sign.

===Inside References===
*Strong Bad mentions the year [[1987]] for the second email in a row.
*Bubs's 30-cent lunch special ad features [[Real-Live Foods|live-action food]].

===Real-World References===
[[Image:no_loafing_Strong_Sad_poster.png|thumb|[[Wikipedia:The Promise Ring|The Promise Ring]]]]
*The poster on Strong Sad's wall in the "appointment" Easter egg is of the emo band [[Wikipedia:The Promise Ring|The Promise Ring]].

===Fast Forward===
*[[Mendelev]], the wallpaper-admirer, turns out to become a character in [[Peasant's Quest]], much like [[Jhonka]] and [[Kerrek]].
*The [[Hanging Objects|poster]] of the whale's tail that says "Remember the 'Tivities:" is used later in the [[Puppet Stuff#Biz Cas Fri|Biz Cas Fri]] toons on Strong Bad's wall.
*Strong Bad would later try to get Bubs to give him a free lunch special in the [[lunch special|Strong Bad Email of the same name]].
*The No Loafing sign would get redesigned in [[redesign]].
*Strong Mad and The Cheat smash a muffler with a pipe again in [[origins]] and [[Strong Bad is a Bad Guy]].
*The "goats" sign and the "hush puppy" picture reappear in the [[Living Room of the Brothers Strong]] in [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]].
*The flowery wallpaper will return in [[imaginary]].

== DVD Version ==
*To see Bub's lunch special Easter egg, select the hidden Strong Bad logo at the bottom left of the screen at the end of the video.
*To see Strong Bad's other appointment Easter egg, select the hidden Strong Bad logo at the bottom right of the screen at the end of the video. This Easter egg has been extended from the original version, making it more practical for DVD players that take a while to load the clip.

===Commentary Transcript===
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])

'''MATT:''' So, no loafing, the no loafing sign... I'm trying to figure out where...where it first came from when we first used it.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, well, where it comes from is an old Batman episode. The uh, Joker, his lair, in the background, on the wall there's this sign that says "no loafing."

'''MATT:''' ''{laughing}'' Is that it? When The Joker goes to school?

'''MIKE:''' It's behind the candy store; their secret hideout's behind the candy store

'''MATT:''' The "Easy Living" Candy Store.

'''MIKE:''' That's right.

'''MATT:''' Um, so anyway, the no loafing sign is uh, another reference to Batman

'''MIKE:''' Oh, that right there, that chart, I used to have this job where I made graphics just like that all the time, so that's why it was so well shaded. Oh, and I want to make that wallpaper.

'''MATT:''' And, that, uh, you'll notice, in that still photograph, the lines are moving on the computer.

'''MIKE:''' What lines?

'''MATT:''' The lines on the old computer. The green lines!

'''MIKE:''' Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! I missed... Oh!

'''MATT:''' Yeah. It's one of those "Harry Potter" photographs.

''{Mike laughs}''

'''MATT:''' A Muggle photograph. Er, non...non-Muggle.

'''MIKE:''' Now this was fun to make, to make these posters and stuff.

'''MATT:''' Them, that's a reference to the basis movie I made in college where these no good-nicks are beating on a muffler with a lead pipe. Mike made that one.

'''MIKE:''' That was fun to do. Whales...

'''MATT:''' That one's great.

'''MIKE:''' And look...

'''MIKE AND MATT:''' There's our friend Matt!

'''MIKE:''' At the beach!

'''MATT:''' He's on later, he has a voice appearance

'''MIKE:''' Appearance, yeah. Which e-mail is that in?

'''MATT:''' ''{Imitating the other Matt}'' Mom!!

'''MIKE:''' He says that

'''MATT:''' Yeah. Shins up... They've really given up the works there.

'''MIKE:''' Batbede... That's another song that gets into our heads ''all'' the time.

'''MIKE AT MATT:''' ''{singing}'' BatbedededeBatbededede ''{laughing}''

'''MIKE:''' I like Bubs', uh... Hey, do we get– ''{cut off}''

===Fun Facts===

*Matt calls the moving photograph a "Harry Potter" photo. This is referring to the moving pictures in the ''[[Wikipedia:Harry Potter|Harry Potter]]'' series of books and movies. He first calls it a "Muggle" photograph and then corrects himself and calls it a "non-Muggle" (i.e. magical) photograph. [[Wikipedia:Muggle|"Muggle"]] is a word referring to non-magical people in the Harry Potter universe.
*When Matt refers to The Brothers Chaps' friend Matt's voice appearance, he is referring to the TV voice in [[sibbie]]. He is mistaken in saying that the appearance is "on later" because "sibbie" actually comes ''before'' "no loafing".

Talk:The King of Town and The Poopsmith's Relationship

Strong Awesome — Thu, 13 Jan 2011 03:56:40 GMT

Strong Awesome: /* Happy Hallow-day, showing friendship */ My opinion.

{{tbd}}
==The title: why did it change?==

There was a reson I made the poopsmith's name first in the title when I first wrote: Their relationship mainly centers around the poopsmith's like/admiration of the king. So I ask you; why did the title change so the king's name would be first? {{User:Haldo/sig}}
:[[User:DeFender1031/Character_Relationships|This page]] said The KOT's name should go first, and he is more significant to the H*R body of work than that guy who says nothing and shovels lots of crap is. [[User:Bad Bad Guy|Bad Bad Guy]] 22:18, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
::Oh. I see. Could you at least see my reasoning? {{User:Haldo/sig}}
:::Bad Bad Guy, DeFender's table of character relationships is just to show which character relationship articles do and do not exist. It is not designed to dictate what they will be named when they get created; that would be too presumptuous. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 22:44, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

==Delete==
I don't think this relationship is worth an article. There's just nothing to make the King of Town's relationship with The Poopsmith interesting or special: It's a one-sided relationship, with nothing contrary to how we would expect the King to treat a servant/employee or vice versa. It also doesn't play a really major role in the H*R body of work, the way H*R and Strong Bad's or Coach Z and Bubs's does. I suggest deletion. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 22:34, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
:The same could be said about strong sad and homsar. {{User:Haldo/sig}}
::How's that? Homsar isn't a "servant/employee" of Strong Sad's. They just have a weird "friendship". Not really relevant here, IMO. -{{User:YK/sig}} 02:58, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
:::What I meant was that Strong Sad and Homsar don't have a very conflicted relationship. There is some conflict on strong sad's part, though. I think that this article is relevant because it contradicts the entire Homestar Runner Universe. There is ALWAYS conflict in two character's relationships, right? Not here. It is the only relationship were there is much contact that is "perfect." The King cares about the Poopsmith, and in return the Poopsmith admires the King. See? The perfect relationship. {{User:Haldo/sig}}
::::"I keep telling him the sun don't rise and set on that pile of whatsit, but he don't wanna listen." Sounds like conflict to me. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 20:55, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
::::I agree with Heimstern, there is nothing special about their relationship. The article should be '''deleted'''.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 20:53, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
:::::Yarg, did anyone listen to my long, drawn out reply?! {{User:Haldo/sig}}
::::::DorainGray probably did since he pointed out a flaw. Did ''you'' listen to ''him''? [[User:Bad Bad Guy|Bad Bad Guy]] 01:16, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
:::::::Yes. Yes, I did. And I found another time where the king insults the poopsmith: "Poopsmith? you smell like a ''crap''smith!" That's exactly the number of disturbances in the relationship there are in "Strong Sad and Homsar's Relationship". And there was one more, it was... AUGH, way computer shut down before I finished and I forgot what the other one was! Anyway, I still say '''KEEP'''.
::::::::HEY, wait a second! If THIS can't have it's own page why should [[Homestar Runner and Coach Z's Relationship]]?!?! '''YARG!!'''
:::::::::Actually, that's not a bad point: Homestar Runner and Coach Z's relationship isn't especially interesting. Either way, you ought to relax. And anyway, that's not what ''this'' talk page is about. As for this article, I'd say it can go. '''Delete.''' {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 01:44, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
::::::::::KK. Question: If I added the two times where they didn't get along, would you accept it? {{User:Haldo/sig}}
:::::::::::Until there is a clear consensus, I'd invite you to update the page how you see fit. Anytime you can improve an article, improve an article.

Concerning the remark about the sun not rising/setting on the pile of whatsit: I just don't think a single remark with no real significance in the plot of the toon (and that doesn't exactly imply a strong conflict, anyway) does enough to make the relationship notable. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 02:08, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
:This may seem a bit defensive on my part, but that's about as significant as the "Homsar, we're playing connect four!" line in SS/H's Relationship.

::Hmm, now that i've said this I'm kinda reluctant to add the bad-ish part of their relationship to the article... Your thoughts?
:::Okay, i don't get this. Any time we have a relationship page, someone wants to delete it. When we have a page about a relationship that's consistent, we get the "this isn't really worth describing as it's always the same" but when we have pages where it isn't consistant we get arguments that "this relationship has no pattern and is too erratic to be worth documenting." Either we don't like chocolate ice cream, or we don't like vanilla, but if we're going to have ice cream at all, we can't not like both, it's like going mudsliding and complaining about getting dirty.

I think that before any more discussions are had about deletion of these types of pages, we should really figure out what the scope of this category is so that we don't assume on this page that consistency is bad but on that page that variety is bad. That's all i'm saying. Figure out what we want before we decide whether this fits it. Foundation before the building. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 03:37, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Me, I think some vetting is necessary in determining which character relationship pages are needed. I'm not sure of what the litmus test is, but there needs to be consensus on one.

Their relationship is actually very similar to [[Strong Mad and The Cheat's Relationship]], and I think everyone agrees that article needs to stay. There are quite a few more instances of their friendship that should be noted here. In fact, I'd say that ''because'' their relationship never changes, it needs a article.

== Happy Hallow-day, showing friendship ==

<blockquote>* [[Happy Hallow-day]] - When The King of Town is telling [[Strong Sad]] about his diet, The Poopsmith nods in confirmation.</blockquote>
This does show friendship. It's voluntarily backing up something unrelated that the KOT was saying to someone else, in a way that wouldn't have made sense for someone who wasn't his friend or otherwise had inside information into the king's personal affairs and cared enough to make sure other people took him seriously when he talked. I definitely think it belongs on this page, and under friendship seems the most appropriate place.--{{User:Johnny Jupiter/sig}} 02:57, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

:I don't think it's worth a mention. We eventually decided not to note the smiley face-shaped globs of whatsit adorning the Hornblower in [[KOT's VOQPCS!]]. The notability requires intent, you see. It's likely coincidence. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 21:46, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
::Definitely not a coincidence. It looks unmistakably like florida.

== Inside reference is probably wrong. ==

It's probably not the first time this has happened. Anyways, I don't think that the comic was named for Real Mutants #87 (Obscure, I'm sure). I think it was named so because of the fact that it was email 1'''87'''. I'm sorry, obscure comic fanboys, but it's not true. Try again next time. - [[User:Eruption257|Eruption257]]

== Frog Eggs ==
<blockquote>
"Frog Eggs" refers to the science fiction novel ''[[Wikipedia:His Master's Voice (novel)|His Master's Voice]]'' by [[Wikipedia:Stanisław Lem|Stanisław Lem]], in which scientists try to decipher an alien message, but only manage to create a gelatin-like substance they call "Frog Eggs".

The "Frog Eggs" reference seems to be too far-fetched for me. There's no real relation, apart from the two words. [[User:JudgeDeadd|JudgeDeadd]] 04:31, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

::::That's a ridicolous kind of "proof". There's absolutely no proof that this is what was intended, apart from the name ("frog eggs" is a common phrase!), gelatinuosity (real frog eggs are truly gelatinous, aren't they?), and notice that Strong Bad is saying "How we doing here, frog eggs?" - thus implying he was referring to Homestar and Strong Sad, not the stuff in the pool.
:::::The fact here isn't just about Frog Eggs, it's about the science fiction novel "His Master's Voice" by Stanislaw Lem, which is something that would generally be within Strong Sad's geekines. We're talking about Jell-o here, and unless anyone can come up with another 'frog eggs' linkage, and moreover one that fits the "I don't even" comment, I say the fact stays. — [[User:Flashfight|Flashfight]] 13:29, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

::::::::: I think that the connection between the two very plausible, since we are talking about a fairly famous science fiction novel, and there is a linkage between the word SB uses and the substance in that particular novel ''and'' in the pool. And I would use a counter example to DeFender's argument; Mystery Science Theater often pulled in the most obscure references. The point was not that everybody got it, but if only a few people did. In this case, "Frog Eggs" on the surface seems like a non-sequitur by Strong Bad, but if you know the novel, then you get the joke.

Homestar and Strong Bad's voices are distorted similarly to how Strong Bad's was after he was preserved in the funeral episode. That it's a reference is strengthened by Homestar's request to be preserved in red Jell-O.

Now, as I recall, while Wikipedia is uncensored, the hrwiki strives to be family friendly. Don't we usually mark links which lead to possibly objectionable content as such? The link to the Wiki page on 187 should certainly be marked as such, along with...well, a lot of the links we have to Wiki pages which contain bad language.

Other sightings often warns us of objectionable content on sites like Weebl & Bob or VGCats, which, while using some inappropriate remarks, are nothing compared to what certain Wiki pages contain.

Just a thought. Is there a template for this, like [objectionable content] or something? If not, should we creat a new one?

== Strong Bad Swearing ==

During the DVD commentary for this email, Strong Bad uses a swear ("****head"). It seems that in accordance with [[HRWiki:Swears]], we must "''always transcribe toons and other material produced directly by The Brothers Chaps and intended for inclusion in the Homestar Runner body of work exactly as it is presented, verbatim.''" This means that we aren't going to censor it out. But shouldn't there be a content warning at the beginning of the transcript? Have a look at [[HRWiki:Youth protection]]: "''there are several exceptions where the site may contain images, text, or links that some users find offensive. These exceptions are material to the project and are clearly marked''". This means that we add content warnings if we link to external websites containing objectional content, or at the beginning of interviews in which swears are used. So, naturally, I tried to add a content warning to the article but was reverted because ''apparently'' "it's a name, not a swear". Eh? What? It may be a name but it still contains a swear! So I have decided to create this thread so we can discuss this matter without resorting to edit wars. Please not that I'm not trying to be overally protective on here, (I'm sure almost all kids know a wide range of swears). I just feel we should give some form of warning, as it would be rather irresponsible of us not to. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 20:47, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
:So you think if we had a user whose real name was like... Jacob Shithead, he should have a content warning on his user page? or perhaps, not be allowed to say his name at all, given that it's not from "material produced directly by The Brothers Chaps"? no. In this case, it's a name, not a swear, and there's no reason to censor or warn about it. Let me put it another way, there's no content warning on [[SBCG4AP Dev Blog]] where it mentions Dick Van Dyke. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 20:51, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
::Of course it's a swear. The whole point Matt as Strong Bad is making is that [[snopes:racial/language/names.asp|people supposedly name their babies swear words]] (although I doubt they actually do as often as people say). Coming straight from Strong Bad's mouth, so to speak, it should not be censored, but I wouldn't be opposed to a small warning at the top of the commentary. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 21:08, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
:::''(edit conflict)'' You're twisting my argument in a ridiculous manner. Firstly, if we had a user called Jacob Shithead, he would be quickly told to choose a different username by the sysops, so the first part of that argument is completely irrelevant. Secondly, I would not agree with your statement about Dick Van Dyke because it's not being used as a swear in that case. I'm pretty sure calling someone a shithead would cause some offense and get you into trouble. I know that if that person was ''really'' called Shithead, even though this would not happen in real life as Strong Bad is talking hypothetically, then it ''might'' not as offensive because it is not being used in an abusive manner. But seriously, does that make it instantly acceptable? Are you saying if Strong Bad used the f-word, you'd take no further action? Ok, maybe I'm getting a bit worked up about this, I was merely questioning the judgement in just leaving it the way it currently is. If that's how you really want it to be, fine. Go ahead, I won't stop you. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 21:13, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
::::(As I pointed out in an edit summary, Strong Bad says it as "shih-TED".. yes, it is obviously intended to be spelled as the swear. I point the pronunciation out here so that those without the DVD can, perhaps, better add to this discussion. That is all. (Huh huh, huh huh.. DeFender said Dick Van Dyke).) {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 21:17, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
:::::Firstly, I didn't say user name, i said real name. secondly, if that really was his name, you still think the ops would say so? I don't. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 21:20, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
::::::But the thing is, it would never be his real name, because no one actually has that name. The it's an urban legend and a joke, just like the others in the snopes link. -[[Special:Contributions/132.183.138.157|132.183.138.157]] 21:22, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

HRWiki:Changing username

Strong Awesome — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 01:49:53 GMT

Strong Awesome: Sometimes you just need a little less name.

{{shortcut|CU|float=left}}

<div style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">__TOC__</div>
The user name users choose for themselves is not set in stone. On request, [[HRWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrats]] can change user account settings and article histories such that all previous edits of a given user are attributed to the new name using [[Special:Renameuser]]. Note: You must make the request from the account you want renamed; anonymous requests (except users whose usernames begin with a lowercase letter and therefore cannot log in) are ignored for security reasons.

==Requesting a change==

To have your name changed, please make your request on this page. Please follow the procedure carefully or your request will not be fulfilled. With rare exceptions, multiple name-change requests by the same user will not be honored.

===Instructions===

#Check if the new name you want does not exist ([[Special:Listusers]]). '''Do not create an account under the new name'''. ''(If you already created the new account, don't worry. We can do some stuff and fix it, but it's still recommended that you don't.)''
#Sign in with the account that you want renamed.
#:''Of course, this is not possible if your account has a lowercase first letter. If you can't log in, then skip this step.''
#Add your request to the '''bottom''' of the section below. Use the following template: <code><nowiki>{{renameuser|Old username|New username}}</nowiki></code>
#Once your request is dealt with, all edits from your old account will be reattributed to your new account.
#Move and redirect your user page and talk page to the new name if it has not already been done.

==Current requests==
<div style="background:#FFC;text-align:center;border:1px solid #CC9">'''Please use this template for new requests: <tt><nowiki>{{renameuser|Old username|New username}}</nowiki></tt>'''</div>

=== Peter222 ===
{{renameuser|Peter222|Peter22}}
I don't really like my username. To many 2's. If you get rid of one it'll bother me less. Thank you.{{User:Peter222/sig}}
:On your user page, you state "I also despise my username", which says to me that you would not want to be stuck with Peter22. In order to avoid having to change your name a second time, I'm just going to wait till you come up with something you like as opposed to something that doesn't bother you as much. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 03:53, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
::The excessive two's are the only reasons I dislike it. If I have one less I'd be fine with it and probably wouldn't change it again. Peter22 would not bother me at all.{{User:Peter222/sig}}

Well, Mr. I Can't Get A Good Username Here, instead of adding periods to your name, why don't we come up with a ''good'' username for you instead.

:Okay how about The Username Searcher? [[User:MICGAGUH]]
::MICGAGUH, you have the opportunity to ''think'' for a while about your username, and you should take this opportunity to do that. You don't ''have'' to have a username that implies you can't get a good username. Unless that's what you really want, in which case, I can't change it. But say so and a Bureaucrat will. {{User:Thy Not Dennis/sig}} 15:16, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

===Fotoshop===
{{renameuser|Fotoshop|Fuchsiania}}
When I signed up for an account at the Homestar Runner Wiki, my username "Fotoshop" was three years old. Now it is five.

While the phonetic source is obvious, the origin of the name, per se, is not. I formulated the username when I was in the third grade, for a Club Penguin account, as a roundabout means of bragging about my (rudimentary) skills with Photoshop. Of course, nobody who played Club Penguin knew what Photoshop was. As my devotion to Club Penguin declined, I began to use the name "Fotoshop" for other websites. Almost immediately, "Fotoshop" became my main handle. However, as I veered away from Photoshop and toward the open-source GIMP, and began to realize the utter simplicity and uncleverness of the username, "Fotoshop" began to seem less appealing and relevant. I began to despise the name.

I proceeded to experiment with other usernames when I finally settled on "Fuchsiania", the name of one of five hundred achievements in a Flash game of mine. I choose this name because ''1'') it's a portmanteau (I like those), ''2'') it's relevant, as I mentioned earlier, ''3'') it begins with the same letter as "Fotoshop", softening the transition, as I find that many people tend to associate by initials, and ''4'') it's easier to form a consistent visual identity than Fotoshop.

Now, I ask, can you please change my username on both the wiki and the forum to Fuchsiania, if you may be so kind?

Thank you in advance, 
Fotoshop — 04:24, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
:Done. Just one question: how do you ''pronounce'' it? Okay, actually two questions: it's a portmanteau of ''fuchsia'' and what? — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 19:16, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Hey, I was just wondering why you blocked the anonny 68.39.230.211, when he'd only made three edits? Yes, he plugged the Sandbox with nonsensical links, but couldn't you have talked to him and asked him to stop it? I'm not sure if you did talk to him or not.

Okay, I know you have a fanstuff talk page. But this is serious. Joshua, the sysop, did something like blackmail. Now the forum is messed up and Super Sam blocked him. Can you please fix this mess? {{User:Sam the Man/sig}} 14:47, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

== If you notice anything strange... ==

This may just be me being paranoid, but I just thought I'd let you know that MySpace told me I got phished and... I kinda had this thing going where I used the same password for everything... including my email, in which I saved an email to myself detailing how to log in to my account on this website...

So, if anybody does anything funny under my account, I just thought I should let someone with special authorities and privileges and whatnot know about it (although I have since changed my password). I might start a new account just in case, but I'm not sure yet how that'll work out.

Anyway... now you know. {{User:Lux Acerbus/sig}} 18:10, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
:Don't start a new account. Changing your password should be adequate. By the way, to add a section to a talk page, just click the little plus (+) next to the edit button.

== Forum Redirect ==

Since the HRWiki forum is down, alot of the regular users have taken refuge to http://www.inversetiger.com/forum/ . However, pretty much the only way for people on the forum to communicate to each other now is by email. Since barely anyone shows their email address, the last resort option is to communicate by editing your sig. Even then, most people don't go looking through a locked forum looking at people's sigs(which is where I found the link). The result: Only the regular users found link. So, I figured that it would be best if you posted some sort of link on the front page of the Wiki or something so people can find it.

== Fanstuff Purge: Wiki User Emails ==

There are currently a few Wiki User Emails on the list of fanstuffs to be saved, and it's been decided that this would be a great chance to get them over to the Wiki User Wiki. My question is whether it would be easier to use whatever fancy method you're using to transfer them across or whether it would be easier to just do it manually. 
Cheers, {{User:Super_Sam/sig}} 19:39, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
:I don't know if this is the specific fancy way that DC's going to use, but if you want to transfer stuff, then the easy way is to go to [[HRFWiki:Special:Export]], and put in all the page-names (one per line), and mash go. That'll give you an XML file that you can feed into Special:Import on WUW (you'll need to be sysop to use Special:Import, but Special:Export can usually be run by anyone). As well as being able to copy lots of pages in one hit, you can also (if you want) include each page's history, and all the templates they use. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 22:47, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

== Redirect pages ==

Hi there It's Dot Com, hope you don't mind me asking something. I was trying to create a redirect from [[Coach Z's 110 percent]] to [[Coach Z's 110%]], but it doesn't work as an actual redirect. How do you create a redirect page, and how is it different from a normal one? Thanks! {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 01:02, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
:Note, it won't act like a redirect in the preview, you have to save it. And the syntax is "<nowiki>#REDIRECT [[Pagename]]</nowiki>". And this is probably the wrong place to ask this kind of question. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:05, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
::Oh, so that's what happened, I only saw it in the preview. Sorry for bothering you, is there a better place for questions like that? {{User:GuardDuck/sig}} 01:08, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
:::You can ask me on my talk page, i don't get annoyed by technical questions, but the best place is probably the talk for one of the help pages or something... {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:11, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
::::[[HRWiki talk:FAQ]] is actually the place we've set aside for questions. If a discussion needs to be on a more specific page, it can be referred to the other page from there. And it is true that a question on any central or highly visible public talk page will likely be answered. Similarly, while I'm not encouraging you to post on any one user's talk page, you could do worse than this one. It's watched by a good number of users, and I have a [[#The System Is Down|whole section]] of the page devoted to technical issues. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 02:58, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

:Strictly speaking, yes, I am making fun, but I'm not trying to be mean.

I myself blank the sandbox on occasion, but not like clockwork. Generally speaking, having a blank or non-blank sandbox makes no difference, and so I find it interesting that you've kept it up. But I'm just teasing, not trying to be offensive. :) (By the way, if it's not obvious, the icon there is a blank sandbox.) Cheers. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 01:42, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

I've been good, nearly done hiugh school, which leaves me to my first question:

I'll be leaving Homestar Runner wiki, temporarily, for school reasons. Anyhow, can someone you tell me where i can find a banner template to place on my wikipage saying I'll be off wiki for a while?

Thanks a bunch.

[[User:Nikolce Kocovski|Nikolce Kocovski]] 07:59, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
:Wow, Nikolce, long time no hear from. We don't really have a template for that kind of thing, but you can make a banner by taking some code from one of our other templates and putting it on your page. Then you can update the message to suit whatever you need it to say. I'm curious how long a while is (your last edit was last April, which is what I'd consider a while). — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 11:42, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Whoa, April, man school's been taking my time man. As well as school, sometimes my internets gets capped, meaning it becomes slow, and when it comes to wikis, they don;t load up.

Thanks for the help again.

Hey Its Dot Com, can you tell me what happened to the fanstuff? I left a long time ago but when I tried to come back everything was different.

:Block you? You're wrong though. We consistently treat scenes as though the characters have normal arms and/or fingers (regardless of what's "really" the case) and are directly manipulating objects. In other words, we say that Homestar is picking up an object (and don't worry about how), not that it mysteriously starts floating. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:37, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

<blockquote class="lappy email" style="width:90%;font-family:Verdana,Trebuchet MS,sans-serif;font-weight:normal">
<div>subject: name change</div>
Dear Mr. Com,
I understand that you must envisage me as a person who takes the Homestar Runner Wiki for granted, as I have created several different users. I am writing here to plead my case to change my username.
When I first created the account Jagger88, I looked at my talk page, and deleted the Welcome comment straight away. I therefore did not look at any information I may have needed. Therefore, I had no idea there was a way to change your username, and therefore created new users whenever I wanted to have a different username. If you look at recent changes, you will see that I have not used Do-Nots, Open Source Greg, or the new paper rox since you gave me a warning (the user Hremails was my brothers before he got confused with all the computer language). 
Please consider my application to change my name to TNDY, as I believe in recent times I have proved myself useful to this wiki. (I did like, the whole transcript for [[Pistols for Pandas]], discovered [[Career Day]], and the [[Sbemails' 50 Greatest Hits DVD]], aswell as along the way improving my understanding of this wiki. 
I'm only a teenager, and I actually think this wiki has what it takes to teach me some respect and responsibility. 
Sincerely, {{User:Jagger88/sig}} 09:19, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Hello, sorry if this is in the wrong place, I didn't know where to put it.

On the recent changes page, there seems to be a large number of accounts being made. normally if it was 1 or 2 I wouldn't notice, but there's been 8 in the last 5 minutes. I think it might be a troll or vandal. {{User:BubbleRevolution/sig}} 01:11, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
:Yes, this is the wrong place to put this, but these accounts are all being made by the same person, because they all are common names (all having something to do with the Eragon series, I have read the books), except maybe [[User:Sbe-Mail Checker Dan]], he's probably a coincidence. Also, you probably shouldn't use the word TROLL or VANDAL yet, since the user(s) haven't made any edits yet, and might not know about the sockpuppet rule. Can someone go talk to him/her? I'm not sure how to do this. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 01:17, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

== A Probably <s>Bad</s> Good Idea ==

We all know about the decomisionning of STUFF, which I do support, but I reviewed your new version of the STUFF template and I loved it.

==Another Fanstuff Thing==
I don't mean to kill the already several dead horses about this topic, but I don't think the sysops are going to fix the Fanstuff Wiki. I know you have a life, n'stuff, but we want some stuff done. I don't care if you do half a page a day. Any progress is good progress. And if your schedule doesn't allow for any Fan-Wiki work, then get people that will accualy work. The regular people word be WAY more willing, and more faster, to fix these unfinished pages. In short, I hope you take some time to work on the Fan-Wiki, get better workers, and always, ALWAYS edit blank pages. [[User:Anonomous]]

Why do you still do this? You're managing the same website you did three years ago, and still for no reason. You're thirty three years old! You don't think that maybe it's time to start a family?

Please, just stop this whole thing.

== Thanks for the purge! ==

Hi Dot Com. I was just passing by to tell you that I, for one, am most delighted about how the purge took over 500 days. Without the purge, I'd still be dwelling on the Fanstuff Wiki with not much else to do, but since its absence, I've pursued other hobbies and personal projects, which most probably wouldn't have happened if the Fanstuff Wiki was still around. For example, since it went down with the purge, I've started to learn more about programming and website creation, not to mention polishing up my English skills and discovering my humble abilities as an amateur musician. That's really all I have to say. And again, thank you. No this contains no sarcasm whatsoever. -[[User:20eric06|20eric06]] 02:07, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

== Regarding [[Talk:Scroll_Button_Songs#Mirror_Glitch|Mirror Glitch]] ==

Hey, man. I just went over the articles for cleanup and saw [[Scroll Button Songs]]. The article looked OK and I went over the last few talk page posts to see why it should be cleaned up. I saw no problem, and I was just about to remove the template, when I decided to dig in the history a little and came across [http://www.hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Scroll_Button_Songs&diff=prev&oldid=645922 this edit] from almost exactly a year ago. That discussion started two and a half years ago, and the article has been in "cleanup" ever since. Is that REALLY such a big of an issue? I mean, it looks like some technical thing to fix that should not bother the casual reader. I didn't even notice the email list on the mirrors after I read the talk page. I just listened to the songs. What I'm suggesting is to remove the template and you'll just fix whatever you need to fix whenever you got the time, since the article itself is fine. {{User:Elcool/sig}} 06:41, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
:I'm not sure why you're asking me. I already {{p|l={{fullurl:Scroll Button Songs|diff=559384&oldid=559344}} removed that cleanup template}} once, and I didn't make the edit you linked to. The same user who made that edit is the one who {{p|l={{fullurl:Scroll Button Songs|diff=624822&oldid=606972}} put the template back}}. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 17:33, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

well, you caught my attention with the chat on Super Sam's talk on the fanstuff wiki, and i didn't get to put my idea in before you locked it out. i figure this is as relevant a topic as any. if the sysops and moderators are the problem, why don't you get some new ones over there? i don't think this is worth closing that wiki. I'm sure there's a lot of people that would be capable enough to run that wiki that update frequently enough to care. I'm not saying it's me, i haven't done anything on either for over a year besides now, but I'm sure there are people that care about the fanstuff wiki as much as you care about the knowledge base. and i don't believe either site deserves to die just for lack of usage after the purge. a lot of the users just said "screw it" after waiting so long for it to come back, it seems unfair to close it for good before there's time to get more people interested again.

== New Logo ==
Did you make that? What a great idea! {{User:Homestar-Winner/sig}} 03:11, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
:Actually, the idea came from the annony of [[{{#ifexist:HRWiki:Main Page Talk Archive 40|HRWiki:Main Page Talk Archive 40#Wiki image|Talk:Main Page#Wiki image}}|this Main Page discussion]], who was concerned about the bandwidth being [[isp|sucked up]] by that giant, 1 MB GIF. That is some epic decompiler work you did there, Dot Com! I've always wondered how you got Homestar in the logo like that, and I enjoy the little Easter Egg. The addition of Flash detection is also very nice. Except I'm not that big of a fan of the lost Decemberween colors, but it adds consistency and balances the page, in my opinion. Also, you might want to remove the special no-click treatment for the 'flakes. It's making my cursor spazz-out. Anyway, great work! Now everything is tiny. {{User:Soiled Bargains/sig}} 04:16, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
::Well, to be fair, all he said was that we should make it into a SWF, which is an idea that I had years ago but had never taken the time to implement. So really he just nudged me into going ahead and doing it.

Hey, I just like to comment the new years logo. I like how after a few seconds Homestar blows a party blower and confetti falls. It really caught my eye. I thought I saw something on the logo other (of course other than Homestar blinking every 3 seconds) and I waited a few seconds and I saw Homestar blowin' a party blower and confetti falling from [[Hammerspace]]!.

Didnt Strong Mad have a Trogdor poster in this email?

This is probably a stupid thought, but since it doesn't actually ''say'' TROGDOR on the poster in Strong Mad's room, (it says PUBERTY) perhaps Strong Bad ripped off Trogdor from that dragon? Or maybe subconciously drew the same thing based off his childhood memory of it? I know, kind of far fetched. --[[Special:Contributions/76.248.84.243|76.248.84.243]] 15:43, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

:Both are examples of stereotypical cartoon bandages though, and we all remember how SS got his belly button... {{User:Strongkinghomsarsmith/sig}} 22:37, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
::True, and yet the location and styling seem too uncannily similar, and it wouldn't be the [[montage|first Punch-Out reference]]... {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 23:37, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
:::It's clearly a reference to [[origins]], and not necessarily a reference to King Hippo at all. I say stick with the reference we know over the reference we don't. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 23:50, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
::::That doesn't mean it couldn't be both at once, though. If it were just a reference to origins, it could easily have been a regular band-aid type bandage (like, tan with brown sides) rather than a cartoony, X-shaped white tape one. Just a thought. -[[Special:Contributions/132.183.138.174|132.183.138.174]] 16:31, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::I still think that it's not a reference to king hippo's bandage, but to bandages them selves. sure they didn't use a bandage, but do they have to? I say no reference. [[User:origonalname]]

== Hey! ==
Strong Sad has Homsar as a friend, then again, Strong Bad hates Homsar almost as much as Strong Sad, so that's why Homsar wasn't mentioned as a friend.
:This is great for the forum. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:47, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

== E. mail? ==

I'm all for correct grammar and punctuation, but since we have used the spelling "email" everywhere else on the site, should we really start spelling it "E. mail?"--[[User:Rotanagol|Rotanagol]] 18:18, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:No, that's not how we do it. I've reverted it, along with a few other things the annony did that aren't the way we do stuff here. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 18:22, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
::"E. mail" is simply wrong, period. The proper spelling is "e-mail", with a hyphen, but that's clearly not how Strong Bad spells it, so we don't either. Also, the anonny who made those edits is a vandal we've seen before (he always tries to make words more awkwardly complex - "Interior References", which is a completely meaningless term, is his giveaway.) Unfortunately, he has a dynamic IP address and rarely makes more than two or three edits at a time, so it's hard to do much about it. (Besides revert, revert, revert, I mean.) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:55, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:::Noted. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 18:57, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
::::Also, ''e-mail'' is losing currency to ''email'' every day, and already looks as quaint as ''to-day'' and ''per-cent''. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 19:06, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::Well, no, "e-mail" will never become as quaint as terms that, if they even ever existed at all, are older than the ''concept'' of e-mails. ;) Of course, there should be no question here, when Strong Bad himself consistently calls them "emails". But even if you think "e-mail" looks antiquated - I disagree - it's a far cry better than "E. mail", to say nothing of "game-play" or "wall-paper", which just look stu-pid. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:16, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

::::::::This has to do with page content, which is EXACTLY what the talk pages here are for. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:40, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

== Last!?! ==

Email 200 was meant to be the last email. then they had Hremail 3184, which was some how a sbemail. Now they have a 202? Why do the chaps keep changing there minds?
:(continued from my post in the previous thread) THIS, however, it speculation about TBC's motives and is unrelated to page content. Posts like these are better for the forum, not the other way around. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:40, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
::But since this thread is here anyway, it should be noted that it was heavily implied that TBC never seriously intended to stop sbemails after #200 (though they did end up taking an extended hiatus). -[[Special:Contributions/132.183.138.174|132.183.138.174]] 00:58, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

== Wisconsin References? ==

This troper-- er, editor-- is from Wisconsin and I couldn't help but think "Deer. Steer. Beer." was a big reference to Wisconsin.

DEER
-John Deere, a large part of the tractor business.
-Very common wildlife.

STEER
-Bovine; Wisconsin is known for them.

BEER
-Wisconsin is known for this as well, being a very German state. It narrowly missed ending up as our state drink (losing to milk).
:That sounds like too much of a stretch. There are plenty of places known for deer, cows, and alcohol.--[[Special:Contributions/66.29.169.1|66.29.169.1]] 15:41, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
::Besides, he says "Streer". --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:13, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
::The e-mail was from Wisconsin, though. I'd let "streer" go, though.

== Is it just me... ==

Or does Scotty Titi bear a remarkable resemblance to Homsar? --[[User:Blu Aardvark|Blu Aardvark]] [[user talk:Blu Aardvark|(talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Blu Aardvark|(edits)]] 06:47, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
:No. Not at all. [[User:Strong Intelligent|SI.com!]]

::Actually, to me he did, but it was a quick thought as I abruptly noticed that he had no legs. The shape was a mound, kind of like homsar, the hat was similar, but not the same, so it's not just you, Scotty did have a small resemblance to Homsar. -AlfstarRunner
:::Yes, but not enough to mention in the article. Also, I don't see how a lump WITH A COMPLETLY DIFFERENT KIND OF HAT constitiutes Homsar. [[User:Strong Intelligent|SI.com!]]

==Imaginary/Invisible==

Could Lil' Strong bad confusing imaginary with invisible be a reference to Drive Thru where the two words were used interchangably?

==Dialog==

It sounds to me like Strong Bad says "stand there and blink", not just "stand and blink". It sounds akward, and to make it work he'd have to say "Stand aaaaand blink". Can anyone offer proof that the article is right?--[[Special:Contributions/24.255.171.220|24.255.171.220]] 21:14, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
:That's the joke. Also "aaaa" sounds nothing like "there". He clearly says "Stand and blink". {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 21:16, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
::I did, and it still sounds like he says "there", just quickly, almost like he pronounces it "dere".--[[Special:Contributions/24.255.171.220|24.255.171.220]] 17:42, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
:::I thought i heard there, then i listened more closely, then i realized that it's just an extended first letter of and. it does sound kind of weird hearing a lot more of the word "and" than you would have expected. {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 18:51, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

== Fun Facts ==
=== Explanations ===
*No [[Halloween]] toon was released in 2010. To compensate, the characters are dressed up for [[Decemberween]] instead, and Strong Bad says they "have their 'weens' crossed".

=== Remarks ===
*This is the first toon featuring costumes since [[Homestarloween Party]] to not include [[Homsar]].
*This, like [[A Decemberween Mackerel]], has a higher [[Sound Quality|quality sound]] than most previous toons.
*Bubs' machine [[gun]] doesn't have a trigger.
*This is a rare instance that [[Free Country USA]] is mentioned directly.
*The King of Town suggests in his Easter egg that he is around 303 years old. However, in [[space program]], released five years earlier, he claimed to be in his sixties.

=== Goofs ===
*When clicking on the Strong Mad easter egg, Bubs' teeth lower and The Cheat's right arm raises. After Homestar is finished talking, both characters go back to their default.

=== Fixed Goofs ===
*When this toon was originally released, the King of Town's costume was misspelled "Heat Meiser" instead of the correct "Heat Miser". The error was corrected later that day.
*Also fixed was that when the mouse was hovered over The Cheat, the label omitted the word "as".

=== Inside References ===
*The Cheat pulls out the [[Telltale Games|Telltale]] [[Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People]] PC DVD with the [[Videlectrix]] alternate cover.
*Pom Pom's costume seems to indicate that he's hollow, which is reminiscent of Strong Bad's 108th email, [[pom pom]].
*[[Homestar Runner|Homestar]] mentions his [[Style|style]].

=== Real-World References ===
*''[[Wikipedia:Die Hard|Die Hard]]'' is a movie starring [[Wikipedia:Bruce Willis|Bruce Willis]].
*[[Wikipedia:Rankin/Bass|Rankin/Bass]] is the production company that produced the stop-motion ''[[Wikipedia:Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (TV special)|Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer]]'' Christmas special.
*''[[Wikipedia:St. Elsewhere|St. Elsewhere]]'' was a TV show in the mid 1980s. In the series finale, it was revealed that the entire show was the daydream of an autistic child staring at a snowglobe.
*The King of Town mention the Bumpuses' dogs, which featured in the plot of [[Wikipedia:A Christmas Story|A Christmas Story]].
*Coincidentally, Strong Bad as the "Fragile Lamp," and Strong Sad as "Ralphie Parker" are both elements from [[Wikipedia:A Christmas Story|A Christmas Story]]
*Homestar confuses Strong Sad's costume for a [[Wikipedia:Donnie Darko|Donnie Darko]] costume.
*Homestar mistakes the King of Town for being a "Devil [[Wikipedia:Don King (boxing promoter)|Don King]]". (He previously mistook the King for Don King in [[Jibblies 2]].)
*Homestar comments on his own costume to the tune of "Do You Realize??" by [[Wikipedia:The Flaming Lips|The Flaming Lips]], whose lead singer wrote and directed the film from which Homestar's costume originates.
*The Heat Miser first appeared in [[Wikipedia:The Year Without a Santa Claus|The Year Without a Santa Claus]], another Rankin/Bass production. The King of Town also quotes the character's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbfgVEk-mxQ song] from the movie when describing his costume.

Talk:A Decemberween Mackerel

Strong Awesome — Sun, 19 Dec 2010 23:32:46 GMT

Strong Awesome: /* Photo caption */ Reply

== Hallelujah! Hallelujah! ==

After who knows how long, we finally get a toon! This truly is a D-Ween Mackerel!
On to Bweeze-Ness. Here are some things I have noticed.
*On the Main Page it says "New Holiday Toon", and when hovered over it says "For real!"
*When Cardgage is "revived" he makes the same shine and noise as when "Eh, Steve!'s mouth exploded the universe" in Cactus Coffee and the No Tell Hotel"
*Non specific mouthwash and the guy who says I'm going to need you to sign this makes fun of people being sued for using product names.
*Marzipan and Homestar both sung a modified version of O, Decemberween.
*Strong Sad being locked in the tub is a reference to other D-Ween toons.
*This toon constantly references Cardgage's death. And hints at Homsar's
*When Marzipan and Homestar are walking at the beginning, Homestar has footsteps and Marzi is leaving a solid trail, again hinting she is just a mass in a dress shape
*When Cardgage comes out of the bush, he makes the same traffic noise as in his FBI warning and Hremail 3184
*Coach Z is wearing a Blubb-Os box.
*The Bubs scene could be an instance of duplicate characters.
*Homeschool winner, Preshy, Rafferdy, Champeen, The Hurricane and another mass I can't identify at the end of the line are all in the bubs scence
*The Defib unit was previously seen in the Breakfast cereal email
*This is an toon not only in widescreen but it is big altogether even bigger than the games menu(I personally can't fit it on my screen VERTICALLY entirely)

Just things I konticed.

I am just so happy we finally have a toon again! I have been checking the website everyday for so long hoping to see one. This brightened my day!

:::: This is the first time we had a toon since April! Thats 8 months down the drain for us! all we had to do was edit old stuff that was new! oh, im so glad it's over. [[User:Jibblejibblejibble|Jibblejibblejibble]] 22:25, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

::That'd be three [[Unguraits]] standing on each others head. The fun facts already got it. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 03:19, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

== Marzipan's Voice ==

I know the sound quality is better, but does Marzipan's voice sound a little different to you guys? I don't know, it sounds more refined, for lack of a better word, maybe it's just been so long I forgot what she sounded like. I understand the sound quality is better for this one, but I don't think that has too much to do with it --[[User:The Swedish Ace|The Swedish Ace]] 03:22, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
:Yes, it's different. I can't describe it either. It was different in [[DNA Evidence]] too.. according to Matt in the DVD commentary, "You can tell Melissa's got a cold here. She's a little snotty." Don't think it's the same thing here, though. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 03:42, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
:: Maybe it's just the result of how long it's been since the last toon? [[Special:Contributions/99.239.23.76|99.239.23.76]] 03:06, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
:::It is a little different... It is probably because we havent heard a new toon for eight months, so, her voice must have changed because...w-well.... everybody sounds different at the end of a year than what they did at the beginning. That proves my point. also they said there was higher voice resolution or something like that in [[Homestar Presents: Presents]]. In conclusion, i concur with the anonymous writer above my comment.

== Video Lag During the End? ==

Anybody else have the video studder/lose synch during the end of the cartoon? I've played it about 3 times, and it does it at the same part every single time.

== High horse ==

I think "We Come Down Off Our High Horse!" in the HTML title isn't referring to Homestar's line but rather to the Chaps themselves. They're jokingly saying they've stopped doing whatever they're doing these days long enough to make a new toon. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:05, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
:You know, I was actually thinking the exact same thing. I didn't want to bring it to the talk because it was a very fleeting suggestion, and I interpreted it to refer to Marzipan's line instead of Homestar's. However, if there's no more verification of this, we don't really have any means of professionally adding this to the article. If we're taking a double <strike>rainbow</strike> meaning out of this page title, we need to be absolutely ''sure'' that this indeed ''is'' a double meaning. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 04:09, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

: I agree with Dot com here. It wouldn't be the first time they've acknowledged a long break between toons, and it was also something that definitely crossed my mind when I read it the first time. {{User:Some HSR themed username/sig}} 04:16, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

==Sports==

When Marzipan said "Senor Cardgage won first place in sports" it reminded me of the reporter in Coach Z's 110% that said "Homestar Runner, you just won the sports". So now I'm wondering if there's any other time the term "sports" is used in place of an actual sport, and if not, if this seems notable in any way at all.

Oh yeah also when Coach Z pops out of the snow before Cardgage appears there's a line in the snow where he came out that disappears before the scene zooms in.--[[User:Topmonhit|Topmonhit]] 05:33, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

The transcription says Homestar throws up when he says "puke". But to me it looked like they were trying to get across that it was imaginary vomit, because it's just a dotted white outline. Thoughts? - Your imaginary pal, [[User:Octan|Octan]] 00:30, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
:I agree. Watching it frame by frame, it definitely looks pretend. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:49, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
::I was kinda wondering why the vomit was a dotted line and clear. Maybe that is it.{{User:The McArby/Sig}} 00:54, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
:::I sorta figured the puke was supposed to look Christmas-y. Anyone? {{User:Homestar-Winner/sig}} 01:30, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
::::Maybe he puked snow? [[User:StarFox|StarFox]] 03:02, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
:::::Maybe a reference to Epic Yarn, which uses that art style. You know how the Chaps love Nintendo. --[[User:Raddaluigi|Raddaluigi]] 05:23, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
::::::i also reccomend the game i havae it. it rules. no, i think that they did it in refrence to [[Halloween Potion-Ma Jig]] where the bottle of Ghost water is dotted with the outline like that. and ghosts are imagiary, or types of imaginary people, so i think they just used the same type of material so they can prove their point. I will have to take another look at it... [[User:Jibblejibblejibble|Jibblejibblejibble]] 22:48, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

== Bubses? ==

In the rejected characters scene, Homeschool Winner is seen conversing with Bubs. Three seconds later, we pan to Homestar talking to Bubs a few feet away. Does this count as a case of [[Duplicate Characters]]?--[[User:Jellote|Jellote]] [[User talk:Jellote|wuz]] [[Special:Contributions/Jellote|here]] 20:56, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
:Technically no. Since Bubs wasn't moving at all when he was in the stand, I think the "Bubs" you see is actually a cardboard cutout. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 17:03, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
::Except he ''is'' moving. He's waving his arms. I'll grant that I still think it's a fake Bubs of some sort (or that he can run really fast?), but we shouldn't just dismiss the duplicate characters thing without a discussion. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 17:16, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
:::From frame 2735 to frame 2743 you can see Bubs standing next to Homestar while you can still very faintly hear the other Bubs continuing to talk about sales, proving that there were two different Bubses there that night. {{User:Homestar-Winner/sig}} 17:40, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

== My left arm is disappearing, Miss America ==

I posted a fun fact saying that Senor Cardgage's left arm disappears after he rises from the bush. [[User:The Knights Who Say Ni|The Knights Who Say Ni]] reverted it. If you watch the bush closely, ''something'' red is behind it as he's rising up, but the moment he stops, it disappears. I figured it's his left hand/glove. If anyone out there has Greasemonkey and can verify this, I'd be much obliged. Bottom line, though: something weird happens after he rises up. I see it, clear as Halloween Night.--[[User:Bobo the King|Bobo the King]] 07:45, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
: I see it. What's really funny: on the same frame his left hand disappears, a spot of his right hand ''appears'' from behind the bush. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 10:28, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
::Bobo the King - I was wrong to revert you, and i apologize. I didn't know what to look for, so i wasn't looking early enough. hope my clarifying revision works for you. Jay - for some reason, my right click menu isn't working, so i am unable to watch this by frames. once that gets fixed, i'll be able to see what you're talking about more clearly. {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 14:47, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
::: If you have Firefox, the Greasemonkey script helps a lot for frame-by-frame comparisons. :) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:35, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
:::No worries, Knights. I've made more than my share of mistakes in editing and it's not as though any damage was done-- this is a Wiki, after all. I just wanted to throw it on the talk page since it seemed my version of the fun fact was unclear. No harm done, and apology graciously accepted!--[[User:Bobo the King|Bobo the King]] 22:40, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
::::Jay - yes i use firefox, but i don't have that script. normally i can just right click and stop the action and watch it by frames that way. something tells me that if i manually crash firefox, the problem will fix itself, but at the same time, i'm always hesitant to do that. incidentally, for [http://www.hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=HomestarRunner.com_PAY_PLUS!&diff=prev&oldid=711854 this edit summary], i went in and actually counted each individual frame. (it was only seven seconds at 12 fps; i figure it wouldn't take all that long) i figure since i hardly ever need to know frame numbers, downloading that script isn't all that urgent at the present time. {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 23:00, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
:::::what do you know, right click menu magically works again! and i didn't have to crash the browser or anything. anyway, Jay - wow, that's interesting. could a decompiler take out the bush? that would be crazy to watch... {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 02:33, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

== Marzipan's transition lines ==

I extracted the file of Marzipan's lines right before a couple of the transitions. Listen here: [[Media:A Decemberween Mackerel Marzipan.mp3|A Decemberween Mackerel Marzipan.mp3]]. I think her first line is "Move it on," not "Movin' on." I also hear no "r" in "Peeow." (Interestingly, there's an unused "Yoink" in there too.) — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:59, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
:The "Peeow" bit I'll buy, but I definitely hear "Movin' On." If I really try, I can sorta kinda hear an "it", but barely. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 19:57, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
:Yeah, that doesn't sound like Move it on. {{User:The McArby/Sig}} 16:10, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
::I took it in and it was definatly it was Movin' On. Also, off the record, pardon me if some of my words are missing a letter, my keyboard is old and not working right.... [[User:Jibblejibblejibble|Jibblejibblejibble]] 22:54, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

== Photo caption ==
[[File:A Decemberween Mackerel opening.png|thumb|"At Decemberween time, it's our duty as people with more than one DVR to help those much, much, much, much, way very, very, very much, really smelly, a lot much less fortunate than us."]]
Per the suggestion of It's dot com I'm taking this discussion here. The caption for the photo on the page is much, much too long and doesn't really fit the picture. We try to avoid unnecessarily lengthy captions here and this is one of them. Not to mention the fact that it really isn't funny, either. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|That guy that slayed some Kerrek]]. 06:08, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
:The caption for the photo on the page is not too long at all. It fits the picture very well, much better in fact than the other one. We don't try to avoid unnecessarily lengthy captions. It's especially funny, in part because of its length. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 06:13, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
::I'm largely ambivalent, but if required to make the choice, I'd go with DC's because, whatever anyone else may say, I do find it marginally funnier than the other. Also because I actually agree that it actually does fit the picture better than the other (for the "keep slogging" quote to fit well, Marzipan would need to have her angry look). I do grant that it's pretty long, but really, I don't know that we have any particular precedent against long quotes. Still, I'm not going to get too involved in this. I think caption wars are kind of a waste of time, anyway. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:49, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
:::Easy there, German Homestar, let's not call this a "caption war". I've seen plenty of lengthy captions get cut back, and seven lines of space below a photo for something that quite frankly isn't funny is a little too much. There's gotta be a better way. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|That guy that slayed some Kerrek]]. 07:48, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
::::"Caption war" = just a term for an edit war over captions, so I think it describes the situation well. As for the dispute, unfortunately, part of this is just plain subjective: whether that line is funny. You say it is not, Dot com says it is. No real objective answer to that dispute. For my part, I find it funny, though not exceedingly so. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:26, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
:::::I find the extra-long caption funny. It was probably the first (of many) things that made me laugh in the toon. Additionally, extra-long captions are funny in and of themselves (see also [[Compy Catalog]]). But, objectively, who said the caption even needs to be funny? Can't it just be a caption? --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 09:31, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
::::::I would characterize the majority of our captions, especially the ones at the top of toon articles, as funny. (Yes, funny is subjective. Let's just say that they were probably funny to whoever added them to the respective articles.) Even if we ''usually'' have short captions, I have not noticed that we, as a rule, must ''always'' choose short quotes for captions (demonstrated by the link above), and I would expect the claim that one has "seen plenty of lengthy captions get cut back" to be backed up with links to edits. Ultimately, I think the current caption is fine with the current image (shown above).
::::::But really, we're focusing on the wrong thing here. I don't think the current ''image'' is the right one for the article. I needed an image for the main page, and so I specifically chose something close to the beginning of the toon that wouldn't be a spoiler. I put it in the article as a placeholder and added what I thought was the funniest corresponding caption. I fully expected the image to be replaced at some point (I even named it "A Decemberween Mackerel ''opening''"). The toon is about Senor Cardgage, after all, and he's not even in the picture. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 20:25, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
:::::::Agreed. The image should have Senor Cardgage in it. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 20:40, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
::::::::I disagree. It shouldn't. im saying that because dont you think thats too much of a spoiler? Then again, in the descriptions that are on the article page, you did put Marzipan/ barely Homestar thata they were trying to help Cardgage.... but still, we dont need more spoilers on there.... [[User:Jibblejibblejibble|Jibblejibblejibble]] 23:00, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::Spoiler? The opening blurb says "Senor Cardgage says he's dying", it's pretty obvious that Cardgage would be ''in'' the toon. And besides, the entire ''plot'' of the toon would never be a spoiler. I'm all for Cardgage to be in the picture. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 23:32, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

== Toyota Cressida ==

In the Transcript section, at one point, Senor Cardgage is said to say this:
'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' {moans} Oh, my Toyota Cressida... {Cardgage falls down}
But what if what he's actually saying is, "My Toyota crashed."? I think this makes sense because he could be using "Toyota" to refer to one of his organs, and saying it "crashed" would be kind of like it failing. And also because of the recent issue with Toyota vehicles and their brakes failing, causing them to crash. Though that may be too sensitive of a joke for an online show like this to make, especially so soon. Still, I think it's plausible that he could've said either one.
:Does anyone else notice that when Cardgage speaks at this point, his hair darkens? - [[User:Zoen|Zoen]] 10:10, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
::Hair darkening: it does. Saying "crashed": he doesn't. The "Cressida" is pretty clearly multiple syllables. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:23, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
::: wow! i thought he said "Oh, my Toyota Crashdeds." That is not a real word, but.... wow, im only 12 and my hearing is fadin fast!
::::I heard "Ohh... My Toyota crashida..." But "Cressida" does make more sense than a fake word, but a modified "crashed" would also make sense... I'm confused now.--[[Special:Contributions/96.253.50.144|96.253.50.144]] 23:11, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

== Hello, Chi Minh? ==
Upon listening, couldn't it have been "Hello, G-Man"? After all, said character from the Half-Life series has a habit of appearing and disappearing, and Cardgage has just emerged from a ridiculously tiny bush.
:No, I don't think so. I've always heard "Hello, Chi Minh". — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 20:27, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

== Dress like shape? Me thinks not! ==

Maybe the reason that Marzipan is leaving a solid trail behind is because her dress is dragging in the back, erasing any footprints in the snow with just a wide dent. Possibly?
:That'd be a pretty heavy dress to leave such a consistantly wide trail as deep as footprints. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 22:27, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
:: As a freindly retort, i guess it must be! Lol! Kidding! I get your point, but mine sure isn't impossible.... as a girl myself, i have worn dresses that actually left marks in snow now that i think of it... [[User:Jibblejibblejibble|Jibblejibblejibble]] 23:10, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

----
Warning: '''''Be advised that the following section is a joke (hopefully), and does not represent the views of anybody cool. Oh, except me. I'm cool.'''''
----
''The following is an excerpt of the book "2 to 3: The entire history of the world between 2000 and 2999", written in 3026 by Μαθθαιος Kgapnam.''
<blockquote>

Another thing that had began just before 2000 was [[homestarrunner.com]], the fortress created by the brothers of [[Matt Chapman|Matthew]] and [[Mike Chapman|Michael Chapman]]. It housed the deities of a tall, athletic person named [[Homestar Runner]] and his arch-rival, [[Strong Bad]]. The fortress frequently released strange things called "[[toons]]" to entertain the populace and to contact the deities. The first decade of the 21st century was all about homestarrunner, shortened as "H*R", so popular in fact that a man named [[User:JoeyDay|Joshua Dal]] founded an entire country with their national religion to worship this cartoon show, named [[Main Page|HomestarRunnerikiW]]. The "HRwikians", as they were called, spent every single waking moment documenting every single thing that was involved in H*R, that the {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} documents that they created could wrap around the world 138 times if they were all lined up together. 
 
H*R created a large array of things that the world began to use in everyday life. The skill of [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|typing with boxing gloves on]] was first dreamt of in H*R, and thanks to Steven Q. Esquire in 2375, the practice is now done by 85% or today's households. At the dawn of 2003, a [[Beefy Arms|beefy armed]] dragon named [[Trogdor|Jrogfor the Lurninator]] threatened to destroy the fortress, but Strong Bad tamed the beast as a pet. In 2008, The Chapman Brothers (or TBC) invented a company known as "Tale Games Tell", and they in turn, with the help of [[Videlectrix]], a mystical orc TBC raised, created the world's first video game, SBCG4AaoP. This was an acronym for "Super Bodaciously Carving Game For Aardvarks and other People." The game starred Strong Bad, who had recently defeated Homestar Runner in a great battle and was more popular with the pesants. The players goal was to try to handle the [[style]] and awesomeness of Strong Bad, which was a very challenging thing to do. 
 
Sadly, the great empire of homestarrunner.com was not a long rule, and ended after a decade of hilarity. Late in '09, a new heir to the Chapman throne had been born of Matthew and his wife. After that, hardly any toons were released, and the streets of HomestarRunnerikiW were quiet and barren. Many HRwikians moved away, losing hope. A few stayed in the nation, believing that the gods would soon answer their prayers. No answer. To cheer themselves up, the remaining HRwikians attempted to view old toons, but a few toons [[HRWiki:Toon_loading_problems|refused to work.]] Soon, all of the toons were malfunctioning, and the HRwikians had no way of contact to H*R. 
 
No one knows what became of H*R, nor the inhabitants of HomestarRunnerikiW. But one thing is for certain. The town, and H*R, live on in the hearts of those whose hearts were frozen at the time of H*R's rule.

During [[Halloween]], the [[Characters#Main characters|characters]] dress up in [[Halloween Costumes|costumes]], in which they often go [[Wikipedia:Trick or Treating|trick or treating]]. Many of these costumes are icons or celebrities from the 1970s, '80s, and '90s, leaving most of the other characters unable to identify '''who a particular character is supposed to be dressed as'''.

This is put quite frankly by [[The King of Town]] in [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]], in which he says, "I wish you'd dress up as something I could recognize! Pop culture... mumble grumble!"

===[[Pumpkin Carve-nival]]===
*[[Marzipan]] doesn't know [[The King of Town]] is [[Mario]] from the long-running, well-known [[Wikipedia:Mario (series)|video game series]] by [[Nintendo]]. This could be because Marzipan insists she doesn't play video games, as said in the same toon.
*Strong Bad, who was in a Homestar Runner costume, said he thought [[The Goblin]] (in a Strong Bad costume) was the [[Wikipedia:The Green Hornet|Green Hornet]]. Strong Bad then thought The Goblin was a [[Witches' Brew]], while he was actually [[Bees|The Bee]].

Poker Night at the Inventory

Strong Awesome — Sun, 05 Dec 2010 15:20:00 GMT

Strong Awesome: Rv, In Homestar Ruiner, it was the poopsmith's shovel.

[[File:pokernight.png|thumb|A different kind of poker night.]]

<blockquote>''"There's no quicker way to turn the hotties off than by being a terrible poker player man."'' — [[Strong Bad]]</blockquote>

'''''Poker Night at the Inventory''''' is a game for Windows and Mac by [[Telltale Games]] released on November 22, 2010, that features {{film|Strong Bad}}, {{p|l=http://www.samandmax.net/wiki/Max Max}} (from ''[[Wikipedia:Sam & Max|Sam & Max: Freelance Police]]''), {{p|l=http://pennyarcade.wikia.com/wiki/Tycho_Brahe Tycho}} (from ''[[Wikipedia:Penny Arcade (webcomic)|Penny Arcade]]''), and {{p|l=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Heavy Heavy Weapons Guy}} (from ''[[Wikipedia:Team Fortress 2|Team Fortress 2]]''), as well as {{p|l=http://theinventory.wikia.com/wiki/Reginald_Van_Winslow Winslow}} from {{p|l=http://www.telltalegames.com/monkeyisland Tales of Monkey Island}} as the host of The Inventory. Telltale promises that it will feature "a new style of poker", presumably in a similar manner to that in the company's other card game, ''Telltale Texas Hold 'Em''. [[Matt Chapman]], besides providing the voice of Strong Bad, was heavily involved in the writing of his dialogue, similar to how he worked with Telltale on ''[[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]]''.

Characters each start with $10,000. Randomly at the start the game, a character might [[gambling|bet]] a prized item instead of putting up the money, such as the Heavy's minigun, "Iron Curtain" and [[Dangeresque Too]]'s [[Cool Shades|sunglasses]]. These items will then become an unlockable item in ''Team Fortress 2'' if you knock them out during the game. The game takes place in a [[Wikipedia:Speakeasy|speakeasy]], with the premise that the characters are spending their off hours playing poker. Between playing hands, the characters will have a very deep dialogue system, and each character has their own respective thoughts on the others. It is said that Strong Bad and Tycho hate each other, but Tycho and Max get along really well. Heavy is wary of Tycho, loves Max, and thinks Strong Bad is a tiny Heavy. Strong Bad realizes he's a licensed character that was exploited by Telltale Games, similar to how he was treated in [[Behind The Bad]].

The in-game models are the same as used in their respective games, so Strong Bad stands out against the more realistically shaded characters (along with Tycho, who also gets a cel-shaded cartoon look).

==The Inventory==
[[Image:TheInventory.png|thumb|Outside the Inventory]]
[[Image:Poker Table at The Inventory.png|thumb|The Inventory's Poker Table]]
'''The Inventory''' is a secret club where video game characters relax and play games when they aren't working. [[Strong Bad]] and [[Pom Pom]] have played Texas Hold 'Em poker here. The building appears to be a warehouse with a metal door and a lit sign displaying the words "The Inventory". This metal door isn't used, as a hidden elevator in the floor goes down into the real club below. The club is shown to have secret rooms, as a bookcase is opened and closed to allow passage to an unknown area. The club was founded in 1919, in response to an early draft of the [[wikipedia:Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution|prohibition amendment]], which would also have outlawed games. The club has remained secret ever since, just in case a similar law is ever created in the future.

==References Made in Strong Bad's Dialogue==
*When losing Strong Bad mutters that the prize money would've just gone to [[The Cheat]]'s [[Wikipedia:Jaffa Cakes|Jaffa Cake]] fund.
*Strong Bad compares Max to a [[Pokémon]].
*After hearing a {{inlinecontentwarning|mild language|This YouTube link contains mild language}} [[YouTube:FFAMTBxJ8yM|very sadistic story]] about how the Heavy choked an engineer with his own wrench and ripped off his fingers one by one, Strong Bad breaks the awkward silence that follows by shouting, "THAT IS SOME ''{BLEEP}''ED UP ''{BLEEP}'', MAN!", even with bleeps turned off, marking a rare case of Strong Bad using a [[swear]].
*One taunt Strong Bad will use is "Looks like you're gonna have to fold!" This is a reference to [[Dangeresque]]'s catchphrase, "Looks like I'm gonna have to jump!"
*One of the lines Strong Bad can say when raising is [[Wikipedia:A Raisin In The Sun|"raisin' in the sun"]].
*Strong Bad refers to the Heavy as "[["Man" pronounced as "m'n"|Heavym'n]]"
*Strong Bad asks the Heavy if he can take care of [[The King of Town]] for him. Strong Bad clarifies that he meant to sneak into his room and shave off half his mustache, not to [[Death|assassinate him]]. When the Heavy says he's not good at sneaking, Strong Bad suggests they corner him in a dark alley. The Heavy still thinks Strong Bad wants to kill him, causing Strong Bad to shrug off the Heavy's desire to assassinate the King of Town with a simple "oh well".
*Strong Bad also suggests that the Heavy should come live in the [[House of Strong]], implying that the Heavy would displace [[Strong Sad]].
*Strong Bad says "Flops are stupid, but [[Floppy disk container|floppy disks]] are [[portmanteaus|analog-awesome]].
*Strong Bad says "Flop, flop [[crap]]. Crop. Trying to make it rhyme. See what I was doing there?"
*Strong Bad tells Tycho he will kick him in his groin[[-face]].
*Strong Bad is upset when Tycho asks him what he'll do if he ever gets a lady, and Strong Bad says he's [[Strong Bad's Ladies|surrounded by ladytypes]]. When asked how he manages to unhook a bra with his boxing glove hands, Strong Bad says [[Underwear|bras]] fly right off due to the odor from his natural musk.
*When The Heavy asks if Strong Bad wrestles, Strong Bad says he's a [[wrestleman]], not a "wrestle...ER".
*Strong Bad says he can "buy a new [[Compy]] with that pot. One with a half-core processor".
*Sometimes, when Strong Bad has to make a decision to call a large bet, he will state that this decision is harder "then the time both Strong Sad and [[Homestar Runner|Homestar]] asked me for dessert, and I only had one laxative-laced brownie left."
*Strong Bad said playing poker at the inventory was "better than poker night at Homestar's. [[Marzipan]] is always walking around au-natural trying to get us to play no-loser [[wikipedia:Candy Land|Candy Land]]".
*If Strong Bad wins two hands in a row, he'll say "You know, I'll just keep winning. Same plan. [[Twice]] [[times]], twice times".
*Strong Bad mentions "[[jibblie]] nightmares".
*Periodically, Strong bad will state that he's "totally in this hand. [[trevor the vampire|Total, man.]]"
*Tycho and Strong Bad have a very antagonistic relationship with one another. Examples include Tycho claiming that [[Strong Badia]] is nothing but a deflated tire and a piece of dog [[whatsit]]. Strong Bad also shows envy toward Tycho's popularity and says that his [[wikipedia:Penny Arcade Expo|Penny Arcade Expo]] is nothing without him.
*When the Heavy offers Strong Bad a position on {{p|l=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/RED RED Team}}, Strong Bad says, "I guess I could join your team of ruthless killers and lame-hat-wearers and watch you get grenaded by eight-year-olds". This refers to ''Team Fortress 2''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s large collection of {{p|l=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Hats hats}}. He then offers to be Team Mother and "Lord-High Ragamuffin".
*Strong Bad compares Tycho's hair to "a greasy hedgehog... unassociated with [[Wikipedia:Sonic the Hedgehog (series)|any video game license]], who went to the barber and said, just a little of the suck, please" Tycho goes on to say hedgehogs can make good pets, or "companions". After Tycho's short but disturbing monologue about the wonders of spines, Strong Bad responds, "Oh, nothing. Just [[puking]] in my [[pants]]."
*After being called a beginner by Max, Strong Bad responds with "Shut up, [[Disney|Stitch]]."
*Sometimes when the player wins a hand, Strong Bad will claim that it's not as impressive as "the time he had a full house and a flush [[Blatant Lies|in one hand]]. A flush house."

==Unlockables==
After a certain number of wins, [[Wikipedia:Unlockable (gaming)|unlockable]] items become available. The Homestar Runner-related items are:

* After two wins: [[Trogdor]] table. A green design with an intricate Trogdor pattern at the center and singed edges.
* After six wins: Homestar Runner deck. A low-res deck of cards. The picture cards are:
**Ace: Spade has Videletrix Logo
**King: Strong Bad
**Queen: [[The Cheat]]
**Jack: [[Homestar Runner]]
**Back of Cards: Blue with white star in center.
* After 10 wins: [[Videlectrix]] table. A red, orange, and yellow table with the Videlectrix logo in the center and their slogan below. Using this table turns Strong Bad's model into [[3D Character Variations#Variations Made With Flash|retro-style polygons]].
* After 13 wins: [[Strong Badia]] table. A table with the Strong Badia [[flag day|flag design]] overlayed on the surface.
* After 15 wins: Poker Night Deck. The hearts are all Homestar Runner related, with the King, Queen, and Jack being [[Strong Sad]], Strong Bad, and Homestar Runner respectively.
* After 20 wins: Telltale Shield table. Black table with symbols all the players and Telltale logo in the center. Also causes Strong Bad to turn into his polygon version.

==Fun Facts==
*This is the first time a Homestar Runner character has been in a game with characters from other video game franchises.
*[[Swears]] are in the game (with the option to bleep them out). Even with the censor removed, however, Strong Bad's swears are still bleeped out.
*Strong Bad's character bio reads:<blockquote>Heralding from the oft-overlooked municipality of [[Strong Badia]], Strong Bad enjoys [[heavy metal]] music, [[Video Games (allusions)|video games]], [[cold ones]], [[Strong Bad's Technology|computers]], jetpacks, [[chainsaw]] arms, [[fireworks]], jumps, [[Strong Bad's Ladies|babes]], and [[guitar]]-axes (both guitars with a sharp edge and axes that go [[Onomatopoeia|"squiddelydoo"]] when they chop wood). His poker strategy consists of belittling his opponents and hoping they fall prey to his "natural musk fog." Watch the critically acclaimed drama "[[Strong Bad emails]]," where Strong Bad checks his email on [[Homestarrunner.com]] or be sure to catch his made for TV movie "The Loneliest Rainbow". Check your local listings for showtimes.</blockquote>
*Strong Bad uses [[The Poopsmith]]'s shovel to scoop up chips.
*{{film|Pom Pom}} makes a cameo in the introduction wearing the pre-order bonus Dealer's Visor for ''Team Fortress 2''.
*A [[Strong Badia The Free|Maps and Minions]] board can be seen in the opening.
*A version of the [[The theme from DANGERESQUE II: This time, it's not Dangeresque I|Dangeresque theme song]] can be heard occasionally in the background.
*When Strong Bad busts out, he can be seen in the background playing on a Buster Blaster video game from ''[[Sam & Max]]''.
*The Heavy reveals that his favorite video game is [[Where's An Egg?]].
*Tycho asks Strong Bad [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|how he can do anything with "hands like those"]].
*Sometimes when Tycho wins, he says "at least Strong Bad didn't win. That pleases me." Then he looks back at Strong Bad and imitates his voice when he says "he needs to be taken down a peg".
*Each character has a unique play-style in line with their personalities. In particular, Strong Bad tends to bluff often.

:Yeah. See [[Strong Bad Smiling]].

== KOT's metaphysical? ==

Right. Does anyone else hear "metaphysical" when the KOT says it? [[User:Octan|Octan]] 02:55, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

:That wouldn't make any sense. As "mega physical", albeit surreal, makes the sentence possible, "metaphysical" isn't even a noun, and in fact refers to the study of the nature of reality. — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 03:03, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

:: I'm not going to bother registering to point this out, but I hear "meta" too... and uh, yeah, it a) doesn't make sense and b) the word is being used completely out of context... but c) ohhhh no, the Brothers Chaps have never had a character use an actual word out of context when a related word (in this case just plain "physical") would have made perfect sense, so it can't possibly be metaphysical on those grounds. Because "mega physical" makes perfect sense. Sincerely, An Ominous Poster.

:::Let's also not forget that Strong Bad says the same word earlier on, and his pronunciation is unambiguous. It's mega. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:10, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

::::Yes, Strong Bad is saying Mega. That's part of why it's funny that the KoT says Meta. It's also funny that "metaphysical" isn't a noun. And as for whether it makes sense...I think it does, since when the King of Town says it it's a self-referential joke--hence, "meta." --Tomemos 18:16, 6 February 2007 (PDT)

==Jou (something) no Hito==
I'm working on translating the Bubs poster. So far I've got Jou (something) no Hito, which, when translated, would mean Man of...Something. Allowing something, or it could be that the two characters together make up a whole other word, I don't know. I'll get back to you on this. --[[User:Kiwi|Kiwi]] 21:56, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
:I hear on the forum that it means Concession Man. Let me find the link. {{User:Shwoo/sig}} 02:59, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
:Oh, [http://forum.hrwiki.org/viewtopic.php?t=10767 here it is]. Scroll down to spiffy's post. {{User:Shwoo/sig}} 03:01, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

The Japanese text on the King Bubsgonzola Supreme poster, from clicking on the word "reuse", at the end of the cartoon reads 譲歩の人, which babelfish translates as "person of concession", probably referring to Bubs having a concession stand. [[User:Phillip Alan Gulley|Phillip Alan Gulley]] 03:02, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

As for the kanji that appears when he walks into the water, I'm pretty sure it's 端, which Babelfish translates to "Edge". --[[User:ShayCaron|Shay Caron]] 03:08, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

== Possible Mario Reference? ==

After I saw this e-mail, I immediately thought of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_Meets_Koop-zilla this episode] of the Super Mario Bros. Super Show. I'm not very well-versed in Japanese monster movies, but I know TBC are Nintendo fans, and the growing/shrinking by eating some sort of food is synonymous in the e-mail and SMBSS episode. Just a thought, I may be wrong.
:I have to highly doubt any video game reference, as the toon is clearly parodying the classic Japanese monster movies. When in doubt, the simplest choice is usually right. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 03:35, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

== Possible Inside Referance to Teen Girl Squad #10... ==

During the toilet Easter Egg, where Strong Bad is spinning, it's almost the same as when What's Her Face was spinning in TGS#10 with the same "Wheeeee!"

Well, she and he said "Wheee" when spinning, as I probably would, but aside from that there's absolutely nothing the same. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 03:50, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Also, Strong Bad ''does'' say everthing in TGS, so that's most likely why they sound the same.

*When Strong Bad is doing the public service announcement he is [[Fourth Wall Breaks|breaking the Fourth Wall]].
I know that it's tempting to say that every time Strong Bad directly addresses the viewer it's a fourth wall break, but I once again direct you towards the precedent set in [[Talk:mile]] (under "Fourth Wall Break?"). Strong Bad addresses the viewer pretty frequently and the entire premise of the Strong Bad emails is that he's answering them for his viewers. Fourth wall breaks, as I see them, should be limited to when the characters acknowledge they're in a cartoon, not just for addressing the viewer. After all, Strong Bad took a camera with him when he checked that one email while skydiving.--[[User:Bobo the King|Bobo the King]] 05:28, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

The record button on strong sads boombox starts off as red, then loses its color when he is playing the message, then turns back to red after he is done.
:Actually I think this is analogous to real tape recorders where the red dot on the record button is lit only while you are allowed to press it (i.e. not while the tape is playing). The red LED under the button turns off, signaling to the user that they can't record while the tape inside is playing. It also locks up, physically disabling you to press it, so the light's just there on the more expensive models to hopefully convey to the stubborn: "No! It's not broken!

== [[Wikipedia:The Hunt for Red October (film)|''Hunt for Red October'']] Reference ==

When Strong Sad is demonstrating the sound recording of Bubs, Strong Sad's line is nearly identical to one used by [[Wikipedia:Courtney B. Vance|Courtney Vance's]] character in ''The Hunt for Red October''. In the movie, Ronald "Jonsey" Jones, the USS Dallas's sonar technician, is attempting to find some sort of audible trace of the Red October, and is running this one snippet of sound over and over again to try and isolate a mechanical noise. He finally demonstrates to the captain that if the tape is played back at high speed, a mechanical thumping noise emerges. Go and watch the movie if you like (and no, I can't post a clip of it anywhere, I don't have a DVD copy of the film and don't feel like going to all the trouble of ripping the scene from a VHS tape just to prove an insignificant point about a free cartoon). My point is this: that this particular plot point in the movie is the basis of this particular segment in the cartoon.

Your logic about Marzipan demanding cans to recycle is fine, it's Strong Bad's surprised response that makes zero sense if there were no "other reference present".

==Ants==

Homestar says "We must save the Queen! I have six legs!" Is this not a reference to ants? [[User:Retromaniac|Retromaniac]] 18:06, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

I took it to be a reference to the Simpsons episode where Homer goes into space. When he flies into the ant colony, they yell (squeak?) to one another, as I recall: "We must protect the queen!" "Which one is the queen?" and so forth.

I really don't think it's a Simpsons reference, but just a reference to ant behavior in general. Everything Homestar says in this email is obviously based on his delusion that they've been turned into ants. Including the chocolate cake that someone was confused about. However, I thought someone might mention in "explanations" or "real-world references" that Homestar comes on at the end carrying a leaf with a bite in it, which seems to me to indicate that at this point he thinks he's a leafcutter ant. Anyone want to back me up on this? --[[User:Toastburner|Toastburner]]

== New running gag ==

I've recently noticed a new running gag and would make the page myself if I knew what to call it. I'm talking about the conversations that the viewer only gets to hear the end of, leaving the rest of the conversation to the imagination. examples:
"And that's when I tampered with the DNA evidence"- unnatural
"And that's why I think the DNA evidence has been tampered with"- strong badathlon
"So from then on, it was pork and beans"- helium
"So that's when I realized I don't even need Lamaze classes"- portrait
"But it turned out I didn't die"- the show

What about the fact that in one email, Marzipan was having tea with Homsar with her teaset designed after her talking about tampering with the DNA evidence and in the next email, Strong Bad was having tea with the cheat with his teaset designed after him, talking about how he tampered with the DNA evidence. I realize that theres something similar in there, but maybe it should be more clear how similar the two are.

== Reference to bosses from the Zelda series? ==

This fact was [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=unnatural&diff=next&oldid=413937 removed] with a good explanation given. Nevertheless, I think it's worth discussion:

*The title and growl observed during King Bubsgonzola Supreme's appearance is reminiscent of the beginning of boss fights from the [[Nintendo]] game ''[[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'' and later games in the [[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda (series)|series]].

Normally I would unilaterally agree that it's just part of the overall reference to Japanese monster movies; in this case, however, the reference in question is to games from The Legend of Zelda series, to which TBC have repeatedly alluded. So, what do other people think — Reference, or No Reference? {{User:Trey56/sig}} 08:03, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

== "This is probably to make the Easter eggs jump back to the appropriate place when clicked." ==

Okay. I have to try to explain this.

So in the past, clicking the easter egg, no matter when you click it, reverts the scene back to one place and one place only. Now, if you click either "reduce" or "recycle" '''''before''''' Strong Bad types "...be kind... rewind", it will take you back before he types it. And if you click either word '''''after''''' he types "...be kind...rewind", it will take you back after he types it. Clear?

Okay, so someone please rephrase this. I think I slipped it in a week or so ago when I had to leave for school. --[[User:Addict 2006|Addict]] [[User talk:Addict 2006|2006]] 14:39, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

:And if you try to click either "reduce" or "recycle' '''''during''''' the typing of "...be kind...rewind", it will ''not'' work. --[[User:Addict 2006|Addict]] [[User talk:Addict 2006|2006]] 14:40, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

I removed this line because making the words unclickable doesn't have anything to do with jumping back to a specific point on the timeline. The code on the words would be something like on(release){ gotoAndPlay (first frame of easter egg) } and then it edits some sort of variable saying whether you clicked it before or after "be kind...rewind". Then when the egg is finished, there's script on the frame that puts you back to where you were depending on the variable.

My guess is that it doesn't work during this time because when they added it into the email later, they forgot to add the code to the words, or maybe the code was lost when lengthening the timeline. I dunno. It happens. --[[User:JelloB|Jello B.]] 22:56, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

::::::First of all, I think you mean ''intonation''. Secondly, your argument is a bunch of whatsit. Strong Bad said to Homestar, "Homestar, I didn't know you had to shave." He wasn't ''asking'' Homestar anything, he was making a statement. On those grounds, the reference is already improperly written. Finally, he used nowhere near the same tone speaking to Homestar as he did speaking to Bubs. Not even close. --[[User:Lux Acerbus|Lux Acerbus]] 19:11, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

== Strong Badia Location ==

In summer Short Shorts, it was made clear that Strong Badia was next to Bub's concession stand and a big lush forest. But now it appears there is no lush forest: The KOT's castle is there. Anyone else notice this?

:Good observation. However, in Short Shorts, the flag and Strong Badia were facing the forest. But in unnatural, there is no flag, so it's possible that if the forest is on Strong Badia's East, and the stand is on it's west, the castle may be on it's North or South. And even with alla that aside, remember, it's a cartoon. Things aren't supposed to make sense. ;-) {{User:Bluebry/sig}} 16:47, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

== Chocolate cake STUFF ==

Why was the last revision called on only a two-point advantage? 11-9 hardly seems definitive enough to call, to me. Time restraint, I'm guessing? [[User:Rowsdower45|Rowsdower45]] 03:52, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
:It went about 4 days without anyone commenting on it at all... It was pretty clear that anyone who was going to comment/vote on the fact, had already done so. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 04:42, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

== Possible Hunt For Red October Reference ==

In the Movie version of the Hunt for Red October, the "stealth" submarine sounds like a "seismic anomaly" when heard at normal speed. However, one of them then records it, and plays it back multiple times at higher speeds until it sounds vaguely mechanical.

Seems like a direct link to the fast forward roars to me.
:Hey, please read the above post. Thanks, --{{User:Theyellowdart/sig}} 00:33, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
::See [[#Hunt for Red October Reference|above]] – this has been discussed before. The device isn't unique to that movie, so we don't include it as a reference, per [[HRWiki:Glossary#T|TTATOT]]. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 00:34, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

== Tape can't play moving right to left ==

Strong Bad's boombox can only play in one direction because there is no button to change the direction of the tape. If the boombox could play the tape in both directions, the play button would have two triangle "play" symbols with one pointing left and one pointing right. Also, since the cassette is inserted open end down the tape plays by moving from left to right. In the email the tape plays when moving from right to left, which is impossible. --[[User:Rocket Lobster|Rocket Lobster]] 05:22, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

==Ninja Vs. Reference?==
is Strong Bad Referring to himself as "regular Strong Bad" a reference to [http://www.ninjaverses.net/comic.php?d=20050428 this?]
I think so, but I don't want to put it up without getting someone else's opinion.
:umm, i'm pretty sure THIS is a reference to STRONG BAD. [[User:DeFender1031|DeFender1031]] 04:30, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
::Yeah, that should totally go on some [[Sightings]] page somewheres, if it's not already. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:33, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[[Media:Chickenwings_realspeeddub.ogg‎|Here's]] proof of the fast-speed replay --{{User:Darkangel/sig}} 22:02, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

== Wait a sec! ==

If the chicken wings had nothing to do with Bubs growing 100 feet tall, how could the bowl of Kashi shrink him down to normal size? For that to work, the chicken wings would have to be responsible, right? {{User:Neox/sig}}

:very true! maybe Bubs was not telling the truth to keep them from eating his chicken wings so they could mutate and maybe, if they are angry at Bubs, crush him! [[User:Jibblejibblejibble|Jibblejibblejibble]] 16:49, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

== I put a finding under RW refs. ==
Homestar's line at the end saying let's all jump into someone's pants is a possible refrence to the little kids game "Ants in your pants"
:Nope, it's just a common phrase. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:20, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

== STUFFed ==

It's in the DVD commentary section now, but I just wanted to point out that the DVD commentary overrides the STUFF decline of the Zelda RWR. -[[Special:Contributions/128.103.10.135|128.103.10.135]] 14:28, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

== Old Version ==

In the Remarks and Goofs area of the Article, it says that whaen Strong Sad is telling everyone how to stop King Bubsgonzola Supreme, his face is an old drawing. I do not agree. He is just far away, and so his face looks smaller. Anyone concur? [[User:Jibblejibblejibble|Jibblejibblejibble]] 23:56, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
:Well, [[Strong_Sad_Evolution|look at it yourself.]] his eyes are closer together, which would be the 4th design. and also, he's pretty much the only thing there, so
:'''MARZIPAN:''' "he's in the foreground." 
:Thank you, Marzipan. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 01:41, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
::If you compare Strong Sad in the first Marzipan scene to the fourth design on the ss evolution page, they're identical. not sure if the scene in question is the same though. {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 01:55, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
In my opinion, i think all the scenes with Strong Sad is identical. i think they are the same. just because the eyes are closer doesnt mean it is a different design. maybe, only his EYES are "in the foreground" [[User:Jibblejibblejibble|Jibblejibblejibble]] 16:47, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

== Fourth Wall breaker ==

Could Strong Bad saying "As for H<s>S</s>R hurricans 'n stuff..." be breaking the forth wall (by saying H<s>S</s>R)? 
-[[User:pgj1997|pgj1997]]
:If there weren't anything in ''Strong Bad Email'''s universe with the initials "H<s>S</s>R," I would agree with you, since that would mean Strong Bad can't be referring to anything but the show. However, "H<s>S</s>R" is very likely also the initials of Free Country's [[Homestar Runner|terrific athlete that everybody loves]]. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 23:33, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

== Chocolate Cake ==

You think Homestar's line "Let's go steal a slice of chocolate cake from that picnic table over there." could be a nod to the previous SBEmail as Homsar thought The Cheat coverd in Whatzit was a chocolate cake? [[User:Geonightman|Geonightman]] 03:07, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

=== Strong Bad Wagering The Dangeresque Too Glasses ===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh... uh... I couldn't fit my briefcase full of cash in these pants on account of my ample hind-bosom. But I do have these cool-cool fadey-fadey shadey [[Dangeresque]] glasses. They're worth like five ten thousand dollars-es. So, we're good. Right? {quietly} You guys bought that?
:'''WINSLOW:''' If nobody else has a problem with it, Strong Bad will be buying in with collateral. Whoever knocks him out will recieve his buy-in.

== Conversations ==
=== Strong Bad and Max Conversations ===
:'''MAX:''' Hey, boxing glove guy. With a face like that, have you ever considered organized crime? Sam and I could come after you and we'd try not to rough you up too bad.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' I dabble in nefarious activities. Like the time I stole the [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]] source code from those [[Telltale Games|Telltale]] chumps.
:'''MAX:''' Ooh! That sounds criminal.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh yeah. I pulled it off without a hitch. Got the code over to my boys at [[Videlectrix]] who turned the game into a triple platinum, triple pixel best-seller. In... Guam.
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' {in a fake acting voice} Other than homestarrunner.com, do you have any other {pronounces as fay-vor-Ite} favorite websites, Max?
:'''MAX:''' Huh? Oh, I've got some favorite sites for laying in wait for criminals and general n'eer'do-wells around the city if that's what you're asking.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' {angrily} I said, do you have any favorite websites, Max? You're gonna cost me fifty bucks!
:'''MAX:''' Oh! {clears throat} {in a fake acting voice} When I'm on the inter-net, I can't stay away from double u double u double u dot telltale games dot com slash store. {Max smiles}
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' I don't trust you one bit, ra-bbit.
:'''MAX:''' {cheerily} It's OK. I don't trust myself.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' How do we know you don't have a never ending stack of aces wherever you put your gun?
:'''MAX:''' {cheerily} Well, you don't. But you're welcome to look!

=== Strong Bad and The Heavy Conversations ===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, Heavym'n? Do you think you could take care of [[The King of Town]] for me?
:'''THE HEAVY:''' I can assassinate King, yes. Is expensive though.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Woah, woah, woah. By "take care of", I meant maybe you and me sneak into his room and shave off half his mustache.
:'''THE HEAVY:''' I am not best at sneaking.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Maybe we could confront him in a dark alley then?
:'''THE HEAVY:''' This is better. That way blood wash away in rain.
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, man. You're going to totally murder the king of town aren't you? {in a happy tone} Oh, well!

=== Strong Bad and Tycho Conversations ===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' At least this is more fun than poker night at [[Homestar Runner|Homestar]]'s. [[Marzipan]] is always walking around [[Naked Homestar Runner|au-natural]] trying to get everyone to play no-loser [[wikipedia:Candy Land|Candy Land]].
:'''TYCHO:''' What's no-loser Candy Land?
:'''STRONG BAD:''' I don't know. Loser!
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' I hear the cold ones are pretty good here.
:'''TYCHO:''' Aren't you like, ten?

=== Strong Bad, Max, and Tycho Conversations ===
:'''MAX:''' Did I ever tell you the time I caught Artie Flopshark stealing all the money from the tenants next store to our office?
:'''STRONG BAD:''' No, but this floppyshark sounds like my type of dude.
:'''MAX:''' I caught Artie going door to door telling some stupid story about having to run really far or a bunch of people were going to die. And people were just handing him stacks of cash!
:'''TYCHO:''' That actually sounds like a charity thing.
:'''MAX:''' Then why, pray-tell, throughout his entire vicious pummeling did Artie insist he needed "10K"?
:'''TYCHO:''' He didn't need "10-K", he was running 10 k-lomiters for charity.
:'''MAX:''' Well, long story short, Flint broke both of his legs and beat him to within an inch of his life. So... he wasn't running anywhere after that.

=== Conversations With A Non-Verbal Reaction By Strong Bad ===
:'''THE HEAVY:''' Hmm, I must think about this.
:'''MAX:''' Hey, uh. Mister Weapons Guy, I didn't take you for the thinking type.
:'''THE HEAVY:''' I think very much.
:'''MAX:''' Don't worry. I haven't had a salient thought since Prince put out Purple Rain.
:'''THE HEAVY:''' I know this music. Is good! Is new, no? {Strong Bad, Tycho, and Max all look at the Heavy quizzically.}

.....Eh, it'll work, i s'pose. Makes my average life sound cool. 
 
Greetings, fellow HRwikians! I am StrongAwesome, or, as "real-live" people call me, Matt. You may also call me Matt if you please. I currently reside in the State of [[the bet|Mish-E]][[original|E-gan]], and.... that's pretty much it. 
I have a variety of interests, such as the following:

*I'm a huge [[The Beatles|Beatles]] junkie, (I refuse to refer to myself as a "fan" of anything. not sure why though, I just don't like the word.) and I will randomly put song references in my everyday conversations.
*My favorite books are the [[Wikipedia:Artemis_Fowl_(series)|Artemis Fowl]] series. (of course, [[Wikipedia:The_Beatles_Anthology#Book|Anthology]] is always a good read as well.)
*[[Wikipedia:psych|psych]]
*[[Wikipedia:The Aquabats|The Aquabats]]

*The dry humor of [[Wikipedia:Portal_(video_game)|Portal]]
*My life is spent mostly on [[Special:RecentChanges|here]] and [http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=lf here].
*And anything else similar to that.

== How I found Homestar. ==
I went over my friend's house, and he was playing [[TROGDOR!]], which looked pretty cool. As I ventured home, I went on the website he was on, and watched the [[Cool Things|Latest toon.]](at the time.) I was instantly hooked. The hilarity of those dumb animal characters [[Hremail 7|never ceases to amaze.]]

The fortress frequently released strange things called "[[toons]]" to entertain the populace and to contact the deities. The first decade of the 21st century was all about homestarrunner, shortened as "H*R", so popular in fact that a man named [[User:JoeyDay|Joshua Dal]] founded an entire country with their national religion to worship this cartoon show, named [[Main Page|HomestarRunnerikiW]].

Poker Night at the Inventory

Strong Awesome — Wed, 24 Nov 2010 00:01:09 GMT

Strong Awesome: /* Strong Bad's Dialogue */ The actual option is "Strong Language", but this seems more clear for those who don't have the game.

[[File:pokernight.png|thumb|A different kind of poker night.]]

<blockquote>''"There's no quicker way to turn the hotties off than by being a terrible poker player man."'' — [[Strong Bad]]</blockquote>

'''''Poker Night at the Inventory''''' is a game by [[Telltale Games]] released on November 22, 2010 that features {{film|Strong Bad}}, {{p|l=http://www.samandmax.net/wiki/Max Max}} (from ''[[Wikipedia:Sam & Max|Sam & Max: Freelance Police]]''), Tycho (from ''[[Wikipedia:Penny Arcade (webcomic)|Penny Arcade]]''), and {{p|l=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Heavy Heavy Weapons Guy}} (from ''[[Wikipedia:Team Fortress 2|Team Fortress 2]]''). Telltale promises that it will feature "a new style of poker", presumably in a similar manner to that in the company's other card game, ''Telltale Texas Hold 'Em''. [[Matt Chapman]], besides providing the voice of Strong Bad, was heavily involved in the writing of his dialogue, similar to how he worked with Telltale on ''[[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]]''.

Characters each start with $10,000. Randomly at the start the game, a character might [[gambling|bet]] a prized item instead of putting up the money, such as the Heavy's minigun, "Iron Curtain" and [[Dangeresque Too]]'s [[Cool Shades|sunglasses]]. These items will then become an unlockable item in ''Team Fortress 2'' if you knock them out during the game. The game takes place in a [[Wikipedia:Speakeasy|speakeasy]], with the premise that the characters are spending their off hours playing poker. Between playing hands, the characters will have a very deep dialogue system, and each character has their own respective thoughts on the others. It is said that Strong Bad and Tycho hate each other, but Tycho and Max get along really well. Heavy is wary of Tycho, loves Max, and thinks Strong Bad is a tiny Heavy. Strong Bad realizes he's a licensed character that was exploited by Telltale Games, similar to how he was treated in [[Behind The Bad]].

The in-game models are the same as used in their respective games, so Strong Bad stands out against the more realistically shaded characters (along with Tycho, who also gets a cel-shaded cartoon look).

==The Inventory==
[[Image:TheInventory.png|thumb|Outside the Inventory]]
[[Image:Poker Table at The Inventory.png|thumb|The Inventory's Poker Table]]
'''The Inventory''' is a secret club where video game characters relax and play games when they aren't working. [[Strong Bad]] and [[Pom Pom]] have played Texas Hold'Em poker here. The building appears to be a warehouse with a metal door and a lit sign displaying the words "The Inventory". This metal door isn't used, as a hidden elevator in the floor goes down into the real club below. The club is shown to have secret rooms, as a bookcase is opened and closed to allow passage to an unknown area. The club was founded in 1919, in response to an early draft of the [[wikipedia:Eighteenth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution|prohibition ammendment]], which would also have outlawed games. The club has remained secret ever since, just in case a similar law is ever created in the future.

==Strong Bad's Dialogue==
*When losing Strong Bad mutters that the prize money would've just gone to [[The Cheat]]'s [[Wikipedia:Jaffa Cakes|Jaffa Cake]] fund.
*Strong Bad compares Max to a [[Pokemon]].
*After hearing a {{inlinecontentwarning|mild language|This YouTube link contains mild language}} [[YouTube:FFAMTBxJ8yM|very sadistic story]] about how the Heavy choked an engineer with his own wrench and ripped off his fingers one by one, Strong Bad breaks the awkward silence that follows by shouting, "THAT IS SOME BLEEPED UP BLEEP, MAN!", even with bleeps turned off, marking a rare case of Strong Bad using a [[swear]].
*One taunt Strong Bad will use is "Looks like you're gonna have to fold!" This is a reference to [[Dangeresque]]'s catchphrase, "Looks like I'm gonna have to jump!"
*One of the lines Strong Bad can say when raising is [[Wikipedia:A Raisin In The Sun|"raisin' in the sun".]]
*Strong Bad refers to the Heavy as "[["Man"_pronounced_as_"m'n"|Heavyman]]"
*Strong Bad asks the Heavy if he can take care of [[The King of Town]] for him. Strong Bad clarifies that he meant to sneak into his room and shave off half his mustache, not to assassinate him. When the Heavy says he's not good at sneaking, Strong Bad suggests they corner him in a dark alley. The Heavy still thinks Strong Bad wants to kill him, causing Strong Bad to shrug off the Heavy's desire to assassinate the King of Town with a simple "oh well".
*Strong Bad also suggests that the Heavy should come live in the [[House of Strong]], implying that the Heavy would displace [[Strong Sad]].
*Strong Bad says "Flops are stupid, but [[Floppy disk container|floppy disks]] are [[portmanteaus|analogawesome]].
*Strong Bad says "Flop, flop [[crap]]. Crop. Trying to make it rhyme. See what I was doing there?"
*Strong Bad tells Tycho he will kick him in his groin face.
*Strong Bad is upset when Tycho asks him what he'll do if he ever gets a lady, and Strong Bad says he's [[Strong Bad's Ladies|surrounded by ladytypes]]. When asked how he manages to unhook a bra with his boxing glove hands, Strong Bad says bras fly right off due to the odor from his natural musk.
*When The Heavy asks if Strong Bad wrestles, Strong Bad says he's a [[wrestleman]], not a "wrestle...ER".
*Strong Bad says he can "buy a new [[Compy]] with that pot. One with a half-core processor".
*Sometimes, when Strong Bad has to make a decision to call a large bet, he will state that this decision is harder "then the time both Strong Sad and [[Homestar Runner|Homestar]] asked me for dessert, and I only had one laxative-laced brownie left."
*Strong Bad said playing poker at the inventory was "better than poker night at Homestar's. [[Marzipan]] is always walking around au-natural trying to get us to play no-loser [[wikipedia:Candy Land|Candy Land]]". After Tycho asks Strong Bad what no-loser Candy Land is, Strong Bad says "I don't know. Loser!"
*After losing 1 on 1 showdown, "You know I let you win. I like to see how the other half lives sometimes."

==Fun Facts==
*This is the first time a Homestar Runner character has been in a game with characters from other video game franchises.
*[[Swears]] are in the game (with the option to bleep them out), as seen with Tycho's promotional artwork and the second trailer for the game. This would be a first for the family-friendly Homestar Runner franchise as well.
*Strong Bad's character bio reads:<blockquote>Heralding from the oft-overlooked municipality of [[Strong Badia]], Strong Bad enjoys [[heavy metal]] music, [[Video Games (allusions)|video games]], [[cold ones]], [[Strong Bad's Technology|computers]], jetpacks, [[chainsaw]] arms, [[fireworks]], jumps, [[Strong Bad's Ladies|babes]], and [[guitar]]-axes (both guitars with a sharp edge and axes that go [[Onomatopoeia|"squiddelydoo"]] when they chop wood). His poker strategy consists of belittling his opponents and hoping they fall prey to his "natural musk fog." Watch the critically acclaimed drama "[[Strong Bad emails]]," where Strong Bad checks his email on [[Homestarrunner.com]] or be sure to catch his made for TV movie "The Loneliest Rainbow." Check your local listings for showtimes.</blockquote>
*Strong Bad uses [[The Poopsmith]]'s shovel to scoop up chips.
*{{film|Pom Pom}} makes a cameo in the introduction wearing the pre-order bonus Dealer's Visor for Team Fortress 2.
*A [[Strong Badia The Free|Maps and Minions]] board can be seen in the opening.
*The [[The theme from DANGERESQUE II: This time, it's not Dangeresque I|Dangeresque theme song]] can be heard occasionally in the background.
*When Strong Bad busts out, he can be seen in the background playing on a Buster Blaster video game from ''[[Sam & Max]]''.
*The Heavy reveals that his favorite video game is [[Where's An Egg?]].
*Tycho asks Strong Bad [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|how he can do anything with "hands like those"]].
*Sometimes when Tycho wins, he says "at least Strong Bad didn't win. That pleases me." Then he looks back at Strong Bad and imitates his voice when he says "he needs to be taken down a peg".

== How I found Homestar. ==
I went over my friend's house, and he was playing [[TROGDOR!]], which looked pretty cool. As I ventured home, I went on the website he was on, and watched the [[Cool Things|Latest toon.]](at the time.) I was instantly hooked. The hilarity of those dumb animal characters [[Hremail 7|never ceases to amaze.]]

== New... Game soon? ==

[[Telltale Games]] has just released a new teaser trailer for an upcoming game to be announced on 02 Sept:

http://www.gametrailers.com/video/exclusive-debut-untitled-telltale/703720?type=flv

A silhouette of [[Strong Bad]] can be clearly seen. Stay tuned for info... {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 06:04, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

:Huh. That explains a lot. I guess we only have to wait four days for more info, if not the full game. At the end it said 9-2-2010, so... Thursday. We should finally see what's been going on Thurday. For now, the question remains: who are the other three he was posing with? One was definitely Max the rabbit, and another might have been Sam, from the same game. That leaves... The Heavy Weapons Guy from Team Fortress? Who knows? Anyway, let's check back next Thursday and see what all the commotion is up to.--[[User:Jellote|Jellote]] [[User talk:Jellote|wuz]] [[Special:Contributions/Jellote|here]] 00:06, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
::According to Kotaku, from left to right it's one of the guys from [http://www.penny-arcade.com/ Penny Arcade], Max from Sam & Max, Heavy from Team Fortress 2, and, of course, [[Strong Bad]]. Based on the silhouette, there's been rumors that it's just a sequel to Telltale's poker game. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:11, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
::'''Edit Conflict!''' Not to turn this into a forumy-style post, but the [http://www.telltalegames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18930 TellTale forum] people have mainly decided that the four are Thycho from Penny Arcade, Max from Sam&Max, Heavy from Team Fortress Two,  and Strong Bad from, well, duh. Since two of them are holding cards, it's speculated that it's a TellTale Texas Hold'em sequel. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 00:15, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

== Do we have a "Experience the Fury of..." page? ==

It's a "phrase running gag" I believe, since it's been in more than one toon. [[Special:Contributions/71.87.114.122|71.87.114.122]] 17:08, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
:Our policies say it has to be in at least three toons to merit a page. Honestly, that's one i've looked for too. Right now it is in two: [[theme park]] (thrice) and [[boring (really)]] (which i think was a direct reference back to theme park). The way I understand it, it would need to be in a third toon before we could create a page on it. {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 17:56, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

== Redirect for <Article Name>s? ==

:{{User:DENNIS/sig}} 17:54, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
::You don't need to manually create redirects for this... if the page name is "<something>s", and you make a link to <code><nowiki>[[<something>]]</nowiki></code> then the [[HRW:Autopipe|autopipe]] will handle it, and for vice-versa, if the page name is "<something>" and you want to make a link labelled "<something>s", then you can just use <code><nowiki>[[<something>]]s</nowiki></code>. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 21:28, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

::Though perhaps also better suited for the forum, I would just like to point out that TBC have put out a Halloween toon every single year since the year 2000, they've done [[Punkin Stencils]] every year since 2003, and [[Fan Costumes]] every year since 2003 (with one exception in 2004).

== Speculation 2 ==
I know I proposed this idea in March and it got shot down, but I really feel we need to make a HR Wiki speculation page. The discussion above is happening way too often. We really need to get this thing off our chests. [[User:doctorwho295|doctorwho295]] 22 October 2010
:I don't really think there needs to be a speculation page, since we have a forum for that purpose. {{User:DENNIS/sig}} 02:18, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
::Is there a page that addresses the hiatus? [[User:Huwmanbeing|Huw]] 11:47, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
:::I understand your point DENNIS, but while most users understand that, it's the anonymous/new users that really need to be addressed. I think it's a rising issue that really needs to be addressed. [[User:doctorwho295|doctorwho295]] 23 October 2010
::::What exactly is the difference between saying "Take it to the forum!" and "Take it to the speculation page!"? {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 18:02, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
:::::I agree with Strong Awesome. There is no difference, and that's why there is a forum. We don't need pages like that on a '''Knowledge''' base. A Forum is a Forum, and there's nothing wrong with it. --{{User:Record307/sig}} 21:56, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
::::::Yes, I see all of your points. I understand we have a forum, and that's where people speculate as much as they please. But here's the main problem: people don't know that. We are wasting our time going on each and every time it's mentioned and say, "I think this is for the forum." I understand that many people really don't see the point, but here's my main question: isn't it starting to get on people's nerves? [[User:doctorwho295|doctorwho295]] 24 October 2010
:::::::StrongAwesome74 and Record307 make a good point though: creating a speculation page would only change where we tell them to go. So, for example, when an anon posts in the Main Page Talk "Hey guys. I bet we're gonna get a punkin stencils this year" or something similar, instead of telling them to take it to the forum, we'd be telling them to take it to the speculation page. New users simply won't know where to go either way. And like Record307 said, it would also bring up the problem of putting non-factual things in a knowledge base dedicated to facts. {{User:DENNIS/sig}} 12:53, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
::::::::An article on speculation isn't going to happen. Our articles are strictly for factual content. It's not going to solve any problems, anyway, since people are going to keep posting speculation on our talk pages no matter what we do. Making a speculation page isn't going to solve that problem any more than the forum does. Making notes telling people "take it to the forum" is an inevitable part of our existence here. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:04, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::I agree we don't need (and shouldn't have) a speculation page. What we need is a page that presents the known facts of the hiatus, which (let's face it) is a pretty huge event in HR history. Facts may be few, but they're in no way absent -- we know when it began, what the brothers said about it, what little has been released during the break, and a little about other projects with which they're involved. Even if it's short, it'll at least be someplace that people interested in the subject can go to see ''what's known for sure''. Then if they want to speculate, they can take it elsewhere. [[User:Huwmanbeing|Huw]] 14:14, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
I fully see all of your points now. I just thought it might help get this stuff off. Sorry... [[User:doctorwho295|doctorwho295]] 24 October 2010
:There's no need to be sorry, as you have nothing to be sorry about. It was a valid suggestion. {{User:DENNIS/sig}} 01:53, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

== Hiatus page ==
I just posed the question above, but decided it's probably better as its own section. Does the HR Wiki have an article about the hiatus? If it does, I wasn't able to find it. If it doesn't, I suggest that one should be created. [[User:Huwmanbeing|Huw]] 11:56, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
:No it does not. But yes, I'd also like such an article to be created. This hiatus has gone on for a long time now, and has annoyed many fans (myself included), not so much the hiatus, but the fact that they gave no explanation about it. {{User:RickTommy/sig}} 12:55, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
::I may create one then, or at least the stub of one that can be further expanded. Given that there have been occasional (though much shorter) hiatuses in the past, I wonder what an appropriate title for the article would be? ''Hiatus of 2009-2010''? (I trust it won't soon need to be renamed ''Hiatus of 2009-2011''...) [[User:Huwmanbeing|Huw]] 13:27, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
:::After careful deliberation, I agree. This is not just a delay. This was the longest break in Homestar Runner history, a fan crisis, and a long period of uncertainty. That, and it was likely a time where they had [[Poker Night At The Inventory|other things]] in mind. Yes, this is relevant. Perhaps as a supplementary page for Poker Night, but either way, this page has my support.--[[User:Jellote|Jellote]] [[User talk:Jellote|wuz]] [[Special:Contributions/Jellote|here]] 22:54, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
::::So, what do you think should be on that page? "There's been a long hiatus from November 2009 to the present (with a brief interruption around April Fool's 2010)."? That's not really going to make it for an article, and that's really about all there is to say about this. We don't know why the hiatus occurred (other than the baby), and airing our complaints (which is the main thing that's been written about the hiatus thus far) is not an acceptable use of our articles. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:07, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
:::::No one is suggesting that the page will be an airing of complaints. My thought is that the page could be about the brothers' hiatuses in general, including sections both on the earlier nine-month one and on the current ongoing absence. Certainly there's not a ''lot'' known for sure, but what little is known can at least be presented there for those who are interested (and seemingly a lot of people are). Further information can then be added as it becomes available. Also, the fact that there's not volumes of material to include certainly shouldn't be a limiting factor -- we already have scores of pages that treat subjects very briefly (e.g., [[Russ T.]]).
:::::As to whether it merits having its own article... If I understand correctly, one can usually decide if it's appropriate for a subject to have its own article by first determining if it has both relevance and significance. The hiatus meets both criteria in spades. Is there any reason why it should be considered either an insignificant or an irrelevant event in the world of HR? Personally I'd say it's quite the reverse: at the moment it's arguably the ''most'' significant and relevant HR subject, one that bears on the very existence and future of HR and is on the mind of practically every fan. It merits an article. [[User:Huwmanbeing|Huw]] 14:07, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
::::::Articles are about content, though. The idea of an article about a lack of content doesn't seem terribly convincing to me. Of course, you're free to try, but don't be surprised if it's TBD'd. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:20, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
:::::::I'm not opposed to a hiatus article in theory, but I agree with Heim that there really isn't much to say. But, who knows, maybe there is. At this point, I think the only way for us to know one way or the other is for someone to make the article and see if it has legs to stand on. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 15:45, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

:::::::::Good start, SA74! I like that it's entitled simply ''Hiatus'', since that can be both the singular and the plural form of the word (something I didn't know until recently). One thing I'd suggest that I think would strengthen the page would be to have at least two sections: one for the brothers' earlier nine-month hiatus and one for the current one. Then the page is about their breaks in general, and covers more material/content. I'll see what I can contribute. [[User:Huwmanbeing|Huw]] 18:36, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
::::::::::'''EDIT CONFLICT:'''I made a few edits to said draft. I have to say, this article could have merit, but I still have a few problems. The way it is written now doesn't sound very encyclopedic. It sounds more like a high school essay. Also, there's a point where enough is enough. As Elcool said in [[Talk:Ron Planet]], we're a Homestar Runner wiki, not a Brothers Chaps wiki. We should stick to in-universe issues and what they choose to publish about themselves, and not do too much digging into their personal lives. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 18:37, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::::I've done some rewording and have started to add some additional bits and pieces. I agree that the wiki is about HR, and in that spirit I think that addressing the year-long absence of significant material to HR is entirely pertinent. As it stands now it doesn't really speculate about anything, and just cites the brothers' own freely-made statements, as well as other publicly available information about their projects. Obviously some mention of the brothers has to be made, but I don't think it's at all prying. [[User:Huwmanbeing|Huw]] 19:15, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

:Remember me? I used to come on this wiki before there were no edits to be made. I feel that this proposed article may not be too good of an idea to create right now because, in my opinion, it does wouldn't look too great to write an article about a hiatus and not be able to place an end date anywhere on it. A hiatus is not a hiatus unless updates resume at some point. At this point, there is no way of knowing for sure whether or not there will ever be any new updates. But if the updates resume, I think this article would be a great idea to write! {{User:Homestar-Winner/sig}} 02:17, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
::Interesting point. I think it's being considered a hiatus (rather than a complete termination) because of the brothers' own statements, which suggest that HR will indeed return. [[User:Huwmanbeing|Huw]] 12:32, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
:::At this point, I don't think Homestar Runner will return. </opinion> But seriously though, I agree with Dan completely.

::::I really like the idea, as I feel this hiatus is an important part of HR history. But I have to agree with DeFender1031, I'm afraid when this whole thing is over this is just going to become a clone of AUD. [[User:doctorwho295|doctorwho295]] 26 October 2010
:::::I concede. I would suggest creating a new section on AUD, but that may be overkill.

::::::Actually, the two are vastly different. AUD talks about instances when TBC have acknowledged the fact that they have not updated the site in a long time within the context of a cartoon. The hiatus has not been acknowledged in an update to the main site (Feedburner and wikileaks aside). This hiatus is significant because it has been significantly longer than any other, and it has caused a lot of doubt amongst the fanbase. It deserves its own article. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 05:45, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

== Poker Night at the Inventory ==

Recently, a [[User:Guybrush20X6|user]] or two has been adding [[Poker Night at the Inventory]] to many of our pages, and personally, I disagree with this. This game isn't made or endorsed by the Chapman Brothers in any way, except for the fact that it has Strong Bad in it. If they actually made this game or Strong Bad had [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People|the leading role]], that would be one thing. But a minor appearance doesn't warrant being counted on pages as a reference, in my opinion. Any [[Wikipedia:Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney|objections]]? {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 11:56, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
:I think we should. I mean this wiki known for it's disturbing comprihensiveness and as long as we don't start adding irrelevent things form the other characters series (Like adding "All characters in Team Fortress 2 use guns" to the [[gun]] page) I think it should be fine. [[User:Guybrush20X6|Guybrush20X6]] 12:05, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
::I think that only things that strong bad says or does in that game are relevant. Entries like "Strong Bad plays poker with characters from other games." on [[Gambling]] are fine. Entries like "At one point Heavy says: "Beat me once, shame on me. Beat me twice, also shame on me. Beat me three times, I am sent to my death." on [[Death]] and "The Pac-Man watch that Tycho wagers is blood stained due to the rather bloody fights he and Gabe had over it." on [[Blood]] are not. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 12:10, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

::::That's more of a compromise than what I suggest. I went through the links to the page, and of them, the only ones I find problematic are [[Guns]], [[Death]], and [[Blood]], as they have nothing to do with SB and aren't TBC's reference. For example, [[Big Butts]] seems to be a perfectly valid reference. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 12:18, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

==Crossover policies?==
With the impending release of Poker Night at the Inventory, I think we need to define a proper wiki policy on how we deal with crossovers. Do we write about them as a whole or just the parts involving Homestar Runner characters? [[User:Guybrush20X6|Guybrush20X6]] 14:28, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
:The latter. It's worked for [http://www.mariowiki.com Super Mario Wiki], it should work for us. {{User:Power Pie/sig}} 20:24, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
::Definitely the latter. Poker Night isn't just a one off thing. We're talking about some three-dimensional interactions between our beloved luchador and three other, rounded characaters. We can't just brush this off as "out of scope". Our policies of crossovers have been outdated.

I went over my friend's house, and he was playing [[TROGDOR!]], which looked pretty cool.

=The Story Of H*R=
----
Warning: '''''Be advised that the following section is a joke (hopefully), and does not represent the views of anybody cool. Oh, except me. I'm cool.'''''
----
''The following is an excerpt of the book "2 to 3: The entire history of the world between 2000 and 2999", written in 3026 by Μαθθαιος Kgapnam.''
<blockquote>

Another thing that had began just before 2000 was [[homestarrunner.com]], the fortress created by the brothers of [[Matt Chapman|Matthew]] and [[Mike Chapman|Michael Chapman]]. It housed the deities of a tall, athletic person named [[Homestar Runner]] and his arch-rival, [[Strong Bad]]. The fortress frequently released strange things called "[[toons]]" to entertain the populace and to contact the deities. The first decade of the 21st century was all about homestarrunner, shortened as "H*R", so popular in fact that a man named [[User:JoeyDay|Joshua Dal]] founded an entire country with their national religion to worship this cartoon show, named [[Main Page|HomestarRunnerikiW]]. The "HRwikians", as they were called, spent every single waking moment documenting every single thing that was involved in H*R, that the {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} documents that they created could wrap around the world 138 times if they were all lined up together. 
 
H*R created a large array of things that the world began to use in everyday life. The skill of [[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|typing with boxing gloves on]] was first dreamt of in H*R, and thanks to Steven Q. Esquire in 2375, the practice is now done by 85% or today's households. At the dawn of 2003, a [[Beefy Arms|beefy armed]] dragon named [[Trogdor|Jrogfor the Lurninator]] threatened to destroy the fortress, but Strong Bad tamed the beast as a pet. In 2008, The Chapman Brothers (or TBC) invented a company known as "Tale Games Tell", and they in turn, with the help of [[Videlectrix]], a mystical orc TBC raised, created the world's first video game, SBCG4AaoP. This was an acronym for "Super Bodaciously Carving Game For Aardvarks and other People." The game starred Strong Bad, who had recently defeated Homestar Runner in a great battle and was more popular with the pesants. The players goal was to try to handle the [[style]] and awesomeness of Strong Bad, which was a very challenging thing to do. 
 
Sadly, the great empire of homestarrunner.com was not a long rule, and ended after a decade of hilarity. Late in '09, a new heir to the Chapman throne had been born of Matthew and his wife. After that, hardly any toons were released, and the streets of HomestarRunnerikiW were quiet and barren. Many HRwikians moved away, losing hope. A few stayed in the nation, believing that the gods would soon answer their prayers. No answer. To cheer themselves up, the remaining HRwikians attempted to view old toons, but a few toons [[HRWiki:Toon_loading_problems|refused to work.]] Soon, all of the toons were malfunctioning, and the HRwikians had no way of contact to H*R. 
 
No one knows what became of H*R, nor the inhabitants of HomestarRunnerikiW. But one thing is for certain. The town, and H*R, live on in the hearts of those whose hearts were frozen at the time of H*R's rule.

Since the first year of the website's run, [[The Brothers Chaps]] have liked to make an annual big Halloween [[Toons|toon]], except for in [[Hiatuses|2010.]] Since 2003, [[Strong Bad]] has hosted a slide show of [[Fan Costumes]] shortly after Halloween every year (except 2004).

== Traditions ==
*Every major Halloween toon has the [[Characters#Main characters|main characters]] dress up in different [[Halloween costumes]]. These costumes are usually characters or people that were popular around the 1970s through the '90s. These costumes often are rather obscure in nature, and a running joke involves the characters' difficulty [[What are you supposed to be?|identifying each other's costumes]].
*Unlike most other [[toons]] and [[Strong Bad Emails]], the Halloween toons feature every main character. Each year, [[Homsar]] appears in an [[Easter egg]] after clicking on something that has to do with [[The Poopsmith]], save for [[Homestarloween Party]], in which he did not appear at all (because he had not yet been created).
*Starting with [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], after the toon is over, the characters will all group together. Since [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]], clicking on select characters while grouped together will start a short conversation with them and other characters, usually about the character's costume.
*A [[running gag]] throughout many Halloween toons is for [[Homestar Runner|Homestar]], or on rare occasions someone else, to mention [[Witch's Brew]]. This started in [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]] when Homestar (actually [[Strong Bad]] dressed as Homestar) mentioned Witch's Brew in odd context throughout the toon.
*[[The Goblin]] is a recurring character in almost every Halloween toon. He was created in [[Homestarloween Party]], when Homestar imagined him while telling a Halloween story. The Goblin has since made cameo appearances at different times, sometimes seeming to (or [[Hammerspace|actually]]) appear out of nowhere.
*The [[Spooky Woods]] appears as a setting for almost every Halloween toon (though not always as the only setting). [[The Halloween House]] appears to be located in these woods. This is also appears to be a favored location for different Halloween activities such as pumpkin judging contests.

Strong Awesome: /* Expansion */ Gracias.

==Expansion==
StrongAwesome: Thanks again for kicking off this page! At your invitation, I did some rewording to achieve a more neutral tone, and have added both a short introduction and an empty first section that can hold details on their earlier 2009 hiatus period. [[User:Huwmanbeing|Huw]] 19:06, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
:Glad I could kick it off. What you've added is pretty awesome as well; I was actually thinking of just a less specific "Hiatuses" page, but couldn't think of a way to phrase it. Also, just Strong(space)Awesome is fine. Poihaps I should change it. hmm.. {{User:StrongAwesome74/sig}} 20:05, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Strong Awesome: /* Hiatus page */ A little rough draft.

User:Strong Awesome/Hiatus

Strong Awesome — Sun, 24 Oct 2010 17:53:02 GMT

Strong Awesome: There's some forum sources of both HRWiki and telltale people i don't have on there, i should go looking for them. feel free to help out!

On Tuesday, December first, 2009, [[Matt Chapman]] announced on the [[Feadburner]] page that he and his wife just had another child. Since then, [[Homestarrunner.com]] updates have been scarce, with [[Xeriouxly Forxe]], released exactly four months later, giving many a thought that the [[The Brothers Chaps]] had returned to the stupid animal charaters, but since then, there have been no updates besides a few store sales. along the way, HRWiki admins have claimed to have talked with the chaps, and they have assured us that Homestar is not over. The chaps have even given a few [[Sbemail 136 Alternate Versions|rough]] [[Soap Box Doiby|drafts]] of toons to the wiki. Of course, TBC arn't simply chilling out, doing nothing; Matt of course has a new baby to take care of, (one of the chaps) is also working on an animation movie entitled "monster island", and it has been recently announced that Poker night at the inventory has been worked on, which has been stated to have more dialogue in it than an average SAM & Max episode.
