&lt;div&gt;==New Name==&lt;br /&gt;
Featuring Self doesn't do it for me.  Any suggestions for an improvement?  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 20:00, 30 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Hmm... [[Featuring Oneself]] might be a little better... maybe there's something better out there, though. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 21:12, 30 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Yes, [[Featuring Oneself]] was what I thought of when I saw this article in Recent Changes.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 23:51, 30 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Perhaps the article could simply be named [[Featuring]], [[Featured Characters]], [[Guest Stars]], or something along those lines and include a section about featuring oneself. This would make for a larger article as well just in case the &amp;quot;Featuring Self&amp;quot; gag doesn't go very far. --Merond e [[User:195.229.236.250|195.229.236.250]] 10:02, 1 December 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:::::I agree with [[Featuring Oneself]], it seems to be the best fit.  Plus it's a cooler commando name. --{{User:TheCheat/sig}} 20:44, 15 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

What about The Cheat? He typically puts himself in his PbTC cartoons. I mean, there's a [[Powered by The Cheat Cameo Appearances|whole page]] on his appearances. I think the subjects are somewhat related. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 20:04, 30 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{charnav|Marzipan|marzy|Pom Pom|Coach Z}}&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:NewestMarzipan.png|thumb|The only girl]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{aboutcharacter}} {{foremail|marzipan}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Biography ==&lt;br /&gt;
'''Marzipan''' is [[The Only Girl|the only female character]] among the [[Characters#Main Characters|primary residents]] of the [[Homestar Runner universe]].  She is tall and thin, wears her hair in a bright yellow ponytail, (although in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 12.2]], she claims that blond is not her true hair color, suggesting that she [[Wikipedia: Hair colouring|dyes]] it), and is almost always seen wearing a purple dress embellished with white trim and gold buttons. Like [[Homestar Runner]], she does not appear to have [[Lack of Visible Arms|visible arms]]. Nevertheless, she is still able to pick up and handle objects without any hint of difficulty; for example, she can play the guitar fairly well.  Marzipan is the only character not voiced by [[Matt Chapman]], she is voiced by [[Missy Palmer]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Marzipan is Homestar's [[Homestar Runner and Marzipan's Relationship|girlfriend]] (humorously, Missy Palmer acting as Marzipan disclosed in the DVD commentary for [[date]] that Homestar is only her boyfriend while acting, and has &amp;quot;several other boyfriends&amp;quot; off stage). Early on in the site's history, this seemed to be the primary reason for her existence. Her character has developed greatly over time, however, and their dating no longer appears to be their main connection. Marzipan has actually broken up with Homestar on several occasions, and gone out with [[The Cheat]] and [[Bubs]] in [[Date Nite]], some of which were due to the fact that she wished to demonstrate her independence. Other such times involve Homestar's unintentional mean streak; he has even been known to show feelings of contempt and resentment toward his girlfriend, as seen in the email [[narrator]] (where he calls her &amp;quot;some type of enormous alien cow&amp;quot;) and [[Happy Fireworks]] (where he uses a [[Cardboard Marzipan|cardboard cutout]] to imitate her and then tells &amp;quot;her&amp;quot; to shut up). Luckily for Homestar, she continues to love him dearly, and the two always seem to end up together again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Marzipan's status as the only girl in [[Free Country, USA]] has made her the target of quite a few prank messages on her [[Marzipan's Answering Machine|answering machine]] (most of them left by Strong Bad), as well as the unsolicited romantic attentions of several other characters (most notably [[Coach Z]] and [[Bubs]]). Despite all this, she is very kind and is friends with almost everyone (though she is not fond of [[The King of Town]], and she really doesn't like Strong Bad at all{{ref|1}}), such as when she helped [[Strong Sad]] make baklava while [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon|Strong Bad was in jail]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Marzysign.png|thumb|left|&amp;quot;I'm off to the Chinchilla protest.&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Strong Bad]] once described Marzipan as a &amp;quot;dirty hippie without the dirt&amp;quot;{{ref|2}}.  She is a strict vegetarian &amp;amp;mdash; she especially enjoys [[tofu]] and other soy products (though in the email [[coloring]] she teaches that &amp;quot;soy is also murder&amp;quot;) &amp;amp;mdash; and she spends much of her time singing and playing her guitar. Most of her songs are about happiness and nature. She often makes protest signs to express her views on issues of varying and personal interest &amp;amp;mdash; among these are &amp;quot;[[Wikipedia:Chinchilla|Chinchillas]] OUT!! (of my basement)&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;[[Decemberween|December Ween]] [''sic''] Kills Bunnies&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;Down with D'Ween&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Marzycouchslouch.png|thumb|Marzipan relaxes]]&lt;br /&gt;
Marzipan has been mistaken for a baseball bat, a bell, and a broom.  A rip in her &amp;quot;Joey Ramone&amp;quot; costume in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]] seems to suggest that she may actually be shaped like a bell. By contrast, the emails [[secret recipes]], [[date]] and [[secret identity]] all show her sitting in a manner that seems to contradict that possibility. In the email [[big white face]], Strong Bad mentions that her head is like a baseball bat. In the email [[long pants]], she claims that she is not a broom, much to Homestar's surprise. In [[highschool]], she is shown to have long, skinny legs like [[Wikipedia: Daphne Blake|Daphne]] from [[Wikipedia: Scooby-Doo|Scooby-Doo]], but due to the fact that Strong Bad has an &amp;quot;unphotographic memory&amp;quot; (or &amp;quot;doodle memory&amp;quot;), this may or may not be true. Though she is often mistaken for such distinctly shaped objects, Strong Bad claims that she is [[Wikipedia:Human|human]] in [[retirement]]. Her humanlike appearance in [[highschool]] seems to support this claim, (though once again, because of Strong Bad's &amp;quot;doodle memory&amp;quot;, this example must be taken with a grain of salt).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Marzipan has a tendency to anthropomorphize inanimate objects &amp;amp;mdash; for example, she talks to her guitar, [[Carol]], asks [[Strong Sad]] to  help resurrect her ficus plant, [[Credenza]], from the dead in [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]], and once names an ordinary sandwich &amp;quot;[[Homestar Jr.]]&amp;quot;, proceeding to treat it as though it were a small child. In addition, she has occasionally been fooled by poor imitations of Homestar, such as [[Tofu Homestar]] from [[The Luau]] and [[The Cheat]]'s costume from the email [[do over#Easter Eggs|do over]]. Also, in [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]], she created a potion that could transform Homestar into several different entities, including a strange clone of herself. Upon such instances, Marzipan tends to show more affection to (and quite possible ''receives'' more positive attention ''from'') these pseudo-Homestars than she does her real boyfriend. It is unclear if this reflect a desire to change or replace her current beloved, although she believes her relationship with Homestar has always been open{{ref|3}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Marzipan sometimes works with other characters on various projects.  For example, The Cheat made a Flash video for her song &amp;quot;[[Oh yeah yeah]]&amp;quot;. She has also teamed up with both The Cheat and [[Strong Mad]] to form a band called [[Cool Tapes]], in which she sings lead and plays Carol. She has appeared in the ''[[Dangeresque (film series)|Dangeresque]]'' series of short films as [[Cutesy Buttons]], and once attempted to teach Strong Bad how to make an [[lady_fan|attractive centerpiece]] out of junk mail and kitty litter.  She has also hosted a [[Fall Float Parade]] with Coach Z and taught a cult-like &amp;quot;[[School|kindergarten]]&amp;quot; class with Homestar, Strong Mad, and [[Homsar]]. In [[DNA Evidence]], it is said that she is allergic to pecans.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN''': Hi, I'm Marzipan, and this is my guitar Carol. Say hi, Carol. ''{performs a scale in E major}'' Ooh, E scale. Nice choice. When I'm not rockin' out, I like to dig in my garden and eat. I'm a fiercely independent woman, and I'm fiercely independent about the soy products that I choose. Homestar Runner and I ''{Homestar leans in frame}'' are one hot item when I say we are. And today we are/are not*.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Yay!/Boo!* ''{leans out of frame}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN''': I like baby animals, and cats and dogs. But it makes me sad to see cats and dogs in the same room together. Okay, bye. I'm off to the Chinchilla protest.&lt;br /&gt;
''{She pulls out a protest sign that reads &amp;quot;Chinchillas OUT!! (of my basement)&amp;quot; and walks away}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{leaning in frame}'' Boo!/Yay!* ''{leans out of frame}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;*&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;''Sometimes Marzipan says &amp;quot;And today we are&amp;quot;, to which Homestar responds &amp;quot;Yay!&amp;quot; and sometimes she says &amp;quot;And today we are not&amp;quot;, in which case Homestar says &amp;quot;Boo!&amp;quot; Whichever reply (yay or boo) he did not give will be his response at the end.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:grinning marzipan.png|thumb|Yes, she does have teeth.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Old Characters Page]], now in the [[museum]], said The King of Town was Marzipan's father. However, it is the only such reference on the site, and [[The Brothers Chaps]] have since reported in interviews (such as [[Club Aquatica Interview - 29 Oct 2003|the Club Aquatica interview]]) that this was an idea they had early in the site's development but have since abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
**In the [[Wonkavision Magazine Interview]], this [[Inconsistencies Within the Homestar Runner Universe|inconsistency]] was explained as a [[wikipedia:Retcon|retcon]]. When asked about the &amp;quot;rumors&amp;quot; of Marzipan being the King of Town's daughter, Marzipan herself replied that &amp;quot;those allegations are completely false. The King was trying to make himself look better by association. That poor man. That poor fat, filthy man.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Marzipan|Marzipan]] is also a confectionery consisting primarily of ground almonds and sugar that derives its characteristic flavor from bitter almonds.&lt;br /&gt;
*In an interview with Wired magazine, Missy Palmer said that Marzipan started out as a hippie, but over time her personality has changed to match Missy's own.&lt;br /&gt;
*The character page title is a reference to Marzipan's song &amp;quot;Oh yeah yeah&amp;quot; from the email [[marzipan]].&lt;br /&gt;
*According to Strong Bad, Marzipan is allergic to pecans.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Biography ==&lt;br /&gt;
'''Homestar Runner''' (middle name being [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig#Transcript|Michael]] and/or [[time capsule#Commentary Transcript|Hal]]) is the star of his namesake website. The subject of jokes and the recipient of [[Nicknames#Homestar Runner|nicknames]], Homestar is an earnest character with a pure heart and nothing but love for the rest of mankind. Unfortunately, his absolute cluelessness and clumsiness keep him from realizing his full potential. As Strong Bad stated in [[TrogdorCon '97]], he has an &amp;quot;unbelievably loose grasp on the world around [him]&amp;quot;. He's not ''completely'' stupid (he once correctly stated [[Wikipedia:Coulomb's law|Coulomb's law]]; albeit after being asked what two plus two is) and has proven to be remarkably clever in the past, though such occurrences are few and far between. He and most of the other residents of [[Free Country, USA]] speak English, but as seen in his [[First Time Here?|welcome speech to homestarrunner.com]], he is also able to speak Spanish, though it is unknown exactly how much. According to the toon [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]], he weighs about one hundred pounds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Homestar is the star athlete on an unspecified sports team led by [[Coach Z]] and keeps it that way via vigorous workouts, as revealed in the [[Strong Bad Email]] [[dullard]]. He is also the colonel (which is always pronounced phonetically) of the [[Homestarmy]], while his [[Homestar Runner and Pom Pom's Relationship|best friend]] remains [[Pom Pom]]. He has some [[Wikipedia:Rhotacism|speech impediments]] (as he says, he has &amp;quot;[[Puppet Jam: Vitamins/Celebrities|twouble with [his] aw's]]&amp;quot;), and appears to have [[Homestar Runner and Homestar Runner's Relationship|short-term memory problems]], as he frequently forgets things he has just done or said, (for examples, see the [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 12.2|12th Answering Machine]] or [[Homestar Presents: Presents]]). He also tends to &amp;quot;borrow&amp;quot; things from (and return things to) [[Strong Bad]], for example, [[Strong Bad's fondue pot]]. Though he [[Lack of Visible Arms|lacks a visible pair of arms]], he is still able to function as though he has them, being able to carry and throw things and even type proficiently. It's generally accepted that either he ''does'' have arms, but for reasons that are never explained, they are invisible, or that he has limited telekinetic powers. He frequently uses two-syllable exclamations, like [[montage|&amp;quot;Hi-Ya!&amp;quot;]], [[radio|&amp;quot;Highball!&amp;quot;]], and [[Homestar Presents: Presents|&amp;quot;Ah-tpoo!&amp;quot;]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although he is often the target of pranks by Strong Bad, Homestar believes that he is friends with the &amp;quot;[[wrestleman]]&amp;quot; and tries to win his favor, often with bad results that Homestar completely misunderstands. Occasionally, he and Strong Bad will be on pleasant terms, usually participating together in a Strong Bad Email or watching TV at Homestar's house. As a whole, Homestar seems to be too dim to realize when people are being mean to him, or when he's being mean to other people. He often unintentionally insults his friends or steps on their feelings and is unable to understand their resulting feelings of anger. Another quirk of Homestar is his ability to be easily outsmarted at his own game, and still be completely oblivious and even happy. As Strong Bad put it in [[secret recipes]], &amp;quot;It's like, even when we win, he wins.&amp;quot; It should also be noted that Homestar's psychology may account for his sleepwalking behavior, as exhibited in the Strong Bad Email [[nightlife]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Homestarteeth.png|thumb|130px|Yes, he does have teeth.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Homestar has behaved arrogantly on various subjects, often caused by discussions of tender subjects, misunderstanding the topic at-hand or his general ignorance of the present situation. While arrogant, he acts single minded and in extreme instances, violently, in a side of his character not often shown on the website, before coming down into upset and exhausted state, such as in [[Happy Fireworks]], when he refuses to acknowledge Marzipan's lack of presence, or in [[long pants]], where he is indignant about the suggestion that he does not, in fact, wear long pants.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At present, Homestar works on the [[isp|help desk]] at an [[The Office|unnamed tech company]] with Strong Bad and [[The Cheat]], but has frequently dabbled in the entertainment industry. He made several [[Fluffy Puff Commercial|commercials]] for [[Fluffy Puff Marshmallows]] along with the product's mascot, [[Marshie]]. He is also the host of an obscure talk/game show named &amp;quot;[[The Show]]&amp;quot;, has co-starred in at least one ''[[Dangeresque (film series)|Dangeresque]]'' movie, sung several hit singles such as &amp;quot;[[Everybody Knows It]]&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;[[Puppet Jam: Bad Jokes|Bad Jokes]]&amp;quot; and other jams with [[They Might Be Giants]], revealed that he is considering a career in [[crying|male modeling]], and also guest starred in an episode of [[Caleb Rentpayer]] (in which he shot Caleb). He enjoys running, breaking into Strong Bad's house, singing, and finding the perfect [[Decemberween]] present. He also seems to really like [[bread]], as seen in [[origins]] and [[disconnected]]. Other favored foods are [[Fluffy Puff Marshmallows|marshmallows]], [[Bronco Trolleys]], [[melonade]], and supposedly [[Wikipedia:Hot Pockets|Hot Pockets]], according to the email [[dullard]]. His most prized possession is his propeller-cap and its [[Spin My Buzzer|&amp;quot;buzzer&amp;quot;]]. He might be a fan of the [[Wikipedia:NHL|NHL]]'s [[Wikipedia:Boston Bruins|Boston Bruins]], as he is seen wearing a Bruins shirt in [[Superbowl Dealie]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He, [[Coach Z]], and [[Bubs]] appear to be the current law enforcement in [[Free Country, USA]], as seen in [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]] and [[road trip]] (In the latter, Strong Bad refers to Homestar as &amp;quot;Officer Cheese-for-butt,&amp;quot; which suggests that Homestar may be some sort of officer.) The King of Town calls upon his and Pom Pom's assistance in [[The King of Town DVD]], suggesting higher authority and/or credibility. However, he is also seen as a thief in [[candy product]], stealing a pair of half-eaten &amp;quot;choco-pants&amp;quot;. In the October 2007 special [[Jibblies 2]], he saves his friends by agreeing to stay inside the [[Horrible Painting]] for &amp;quot;eternity&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

== Character Video Transcript ==&lt;br /&gt;
''{'''Page Title:''' Homerun Hitter!}''&lt;br /&gt;
''{'''Place:''' [[The Field]]}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, hello. Greetings, one and everyone. Welcome to me.... Homestar!... Runner!... Homestar Runner. Um... what else? I pretty much run the show around here. I date the only girl, and have the only propeller cap. ''{propeller cap twirls}'' And can run, and jump, and kick the fastest, highest and like nobody's business. If I had to pick one word to describe myself, it would probably be... Fluffy Puff Marshmallows. Or Homestar. Either one, really. They both fit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad sticks his arm into the scene.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{says one of the following lines, picked randomly}''&lt;br /&gt;
*Don't forget &amp;quot;doofus&amp;quot;!&lt;br /&gt;
*Don't forget &amp;quot;moron&amp;quot;!&lt;br /&gt;
*Don't forget um... &amp;quot;Lionel Richie&amp;quot;!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, that too. That's another good one. In closing, I look good in red. Check it out. ''{turns around, sings while shaking his rear}'' Buttdance, buttda-a-ance!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fun Facts===&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar shows off his [[Buttdance|butt dance]] again multiple times.&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar could only hold his breath for about 3 seconds in [[Halloween Fairstival]], but in the older [[Yearbook Character Page]], he could hold his breath for about 11 seconds.&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar also appears to have a nervous twitch, which would be revealed in later cartoons, as his head repeatedly snaps back and forth while talking.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Homestar's Eyes ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Straighton.png|thumb|Cartoon straight-on]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:TMBG_Homestar_closeup_20040925.jpg|thumb|right|Puppet Stuff straight-on]]&lt;br /&gt;
Homestar's eyes are quite strange.&lt;br /&gt;
*Sometimes they seem to move around his head. Most of the time they're like a flounder's eyes, but they switch sides of his face whenever he turns. In the [[Old Intro 2]], you can sort of see Homestar's eyes moving as the camera circles around him. Also, in [[Theme Song Video]], the currently absent toon [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]], the old version of [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD|In Search of the Yello Dello]], the [[Homestar Runner and Strong Bad Screensaver|Homestar Screensaver]], [[action figure]], and the [[Eggs (toon)|Eggs toon]], you can see his face from the front, which further lends credence to this theory.&lt;br /&gt;
**It is possible that Homestar's eyes are in fact on the front of his head, but his generally accepted stature always has him facing slightly to the side.  Because he is a cartoon character, the three-dimensional shape of his head and face are not shown, so the viewer is left to infer the eyes' correct positions based on which direction Homestar appears to be facing.  (Note that an explicit &amp;quot;front view&amp;quot; of Homestar Runner has not been seen since Old Intro 2.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*His puppet and his two figurines, on the other hand, have eyes stuck on one side of his head. Occasionally you can get a peek at the other side of Puppet Homestar's face.&lt;br /&gt;
**[[The Brothers Chaps]] actually made the eyes out of felt, so that they can be switched if necessary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar's eyes almost always blink at regular intervals (once every approximately 3.9 seconds), even when the cartoon is paused or has stopped, and in some special cases such as where he appears on a magazine cover (as seen in the Email [[modeling]]).  This is explained by the fact that his eyes are animated as a Flash movie clip, which generally animates continuously.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Homestar Runner's Hat==&lt;br /&gt;
:''Main article: [[Homestar Runner's Hat]]''&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Homestarhat.png|thumb|It's my buzzer!]]&lt;br /&gt;
Homestar Runner usually wears a blue and red propeller cap, commonly called a beanie. He calls the propeller a &amp;quot;buzzer.&amp;quot; In an interview with [[Wonkavision Magazine Interview|Wonkavision Magazine]], he claimed that he was born with his hat on.  He is occasionally seen without it.  He had lost his hat in [[Where My Hat is At?]] and apparently [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]] (according to the DVD commentary) as well.  In the email [[super powers]], Strong Bad managed to make the hat pop off of Homestar's head.  In the email [[car]], Homestar had his hat &amp;quot;tricked out&amp;quot; with features such as hydraulics and underglow neon.  He also claimed that if Strong Bad [[Spin My Buzzer|spun his &amp;quot;buzzer&amp;quot;]], it would play the theme from ''[[Wikipedia:Night Court|Night Court]]'', but it was obvious Homestar hummed it himself.  Homestar dressed as himself in [[TrogdorCon '97]], and wore two hats as a result.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Homestar's Shirt ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Homestar's Legs and shirt in the middle.PNG|50px|thumb|In the middle]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Onetwo_hrfoot.PNG|50px|thumb|left|The bottom of his feet]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Homestar's shirt seems to most resemble a red skirt with a white star on it. [[Strong Bad]] stole the star in [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]] and used it to coax Homestar and [[Pom Pom]] into wrestling [[Strong Mad]] and himself. Despite the brothers' loss to Homestar and Pom Pom, Strong Bad tore up the star, and only by kicking Strong Bad and taking one of the stars floating around his head was Homestar able to return his shirt to its original glory. The only other times Homestar's star has been removed were in [[different town]], in which Strong Bad imagined Homestar angrily tearing the star off his shirt and stamping on it when he &amp;quot;called it quits&amp;quot;, and [[hygiene]], when he takes it off and blows his nose in it as John. Clearly, the star is a mark of pride to Homestar Runner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the original script for [[flashback]], Strong Bad wore a similar shirt until Marzipan gave one to Homestar (to replace his Duckie Shirt). After this point, Strong Bad would have ripped off his shirt, explaining why he never wore one to this day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A real-life version of the shirt is available for purchase in the [[Store]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other than his propeller cap, Homestar's shirt appears to be his only piece of clothing, as his questionable [[Homestar Runner's Pants|pants]] are a mystery. In [[long pants]], Strong Bad claims that Homestar doesn't have shoes, but has blue soles glued to the bottom of his feet. He wore a gray version of his shirt in [[impression]] while doing a bad imitation of [[Strong Sad]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note that the shirt is also straight compared to the eyes on the unfinished toon, [[Tis True, Pom Pom, Tis True]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- Please keep this section as brief as possible. Only very important information directly related to basic gameplay should be added. Any other information may be added to the Homestar and Marzipan Relationship article in the first instance. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:marzipan.png|thumb|Homestar's favorite hippie.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:''Main article: [[Homestar Runner and Marzipan's Relationship]]'' &lt;br /&gt;
Homestar's relationship with [[Marzipan]] seems tenuous at best, and it has appeared to deteriorate over time.  Although Homestar frequently (and usually inadvertently) insults Marzipan, and she claims to have broken up with him several times, the two still seem to stick together. It is unclear how their relationship started, but the fact that their relationship is never truly broken suggests that they really do love each other.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Homestar appears to greatly value their relationship; on the ''rare'' occasion that he realizes that their relationship is in jeopardy, he will spring into a desperate ploy to patch things up. He also seems to miss and need Marzipan's badgering every once in a while. When she was out of town in [[Happy Fireworks|July of 2005]], he carried around a [[Cardboard Marzipan|cardboard cutout]] version of her and provided a voice for it. The cardboard version still made similar comments about violence and Homestar's poor grammar that the actual Marzipan would have, providing Homestar with the presumably cathartic opportunity to say &amp;quot;Shut up, Marzipan.&amp;quot; Even then, Homestar's relationship with the &amp;quot;Cardboard Marzi&amp;quot; appeared to be tenuous, as he voiced her flirting with other men. (This could be due to lasting paranoia and suspicion following a series of [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 3.0|answering machine messages]] in which both Bubs and Coach Z tried to ask her out on a date.) Cardboard Marzipan returned in [[No Hands on Deck|August of 2006]], where she was slightly more positive with Homestar, and said she was proud of his unusually constructed deck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[Date Nite]], Marzipan went out with The Cheat, much to Homestar's dismay. Though the date went well, Marzipan did not stay with The Cheat. She later went out with Bubs, to Coach Z's dismay.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;== Rename ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The current title does not aply to 1/2 of the listed appearances.  Can we move this article to [[Brooklyn Accents]]? [[User:Bad Bad Guy|Bad Bad Guy]] 20:37, 19 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Umm... it applies to all of them. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 20:43, 19 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::You don't spell learn, work, or turkey with &amp;quot;er&amp;quot;. [[User:Bad Bad Guy|Bad Bad Guy]] 20:51, 19 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Also, &amp;quot;Toikey&amp;quot; isn't actually ''pronounced'' in the latest toon, just spelled (as far as I remember). I agree that the title should be changed to something better.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 20:58, 19 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::The opening of the article makes it clear we're talking about an &amp;quot;er&amp;quot; sound, though, not necessarily the spelling. I don't think a change is needed. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:59, 19 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::Ah... i see both points... '''neutral''' {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 21:12, 19 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Rename ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
THis page should be changed to &amp;quot;Mispronunciations&amp;quot;.  If there is another similar page, they should be merged. {{User:TheCheat/sig}} 22:40, 19 November 2007 (UTC)&lt;/div&gt;</description>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;'''G''' is a recurring letter on the [[Homestar Runner (Flash cartoon)|Homestar Runner]] website.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Words that start with &amp;quot;G&amp;quot; are often pronounced with a &amp;quot;J&amp;quot; instead, e.g. [[A Decemberween Pageant|&amp;quot;gold&amp;quot; becomes &amp;quot;jold&amp;quot;]], [[the show|&amp;quot;guys&amp;quot; becomes &amp;quot;juys&amp;quot;]] and [[Homsar Main Page|&amp;quot;games&amp;quot; becomes &amp;quot;james&amp;quot;]], etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Notable Appearances==&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Strong Sad]]'s plush lobster [[Gooblies]], first appearing in [[suntan]], has a tag labeled &amp;quot;G&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*In [[for kids]], [[Homsar]]'s letter of the day was &amp;quot;G&amp;quot;. Homsar said it was &amp;quot;a healthy piece of real estate.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*In [[pizzaz]], [[Strong Bad]] said the secret to his pizzaz is the three G's: gumption, gum, and  minty gargle.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[What's Her Face]] claimed that she could count to G in [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 7]].&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Happy Fireworks]] featured [[The Cheat]]'s firework display as &amp;quot;Plan G&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*In [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 11]], [[Cheerleader]] asks &amp;quot;Does &amp;quot;ugs&amp;quot; have one &amp;quot;g&amp;quot; or two?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

'''The Cheat's Computer Room''' is where [[The Cheat]] makes [[Powered by The Cheat|his cartoons]]. It has the classic Tangerine iMac (named [[Tangerine Dreams]]) running OS 8, with Flash MX and an e-mail client installed on it with a dream viewer.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- Apple calls the orange color &amp;quot;Tangerine,&amp;quot; hence the title of the computer. See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=43101 --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In the email [[redesign]], The Cheat upgraded his computer to an iMac core duo with the Tandy logo on it.&lt;br /&gt;

''{Scene Opens in darkened room with yellow tape (reading &amp;quot;LELLOWTAPE&amp;quot;) all over the Lappy. The Lights come on. Strong Bad enters.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{from offcscreen}'' Email is nice, dadadadadadada! ''{rips the tape away}'' Email is twice, habilahoobilasong! ''{pulls up the email}''&lt;br /&gt;

dear strong bad, &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
dude i am getting bored of the &amp;quot;no loafing&amp;quot; sign and blue &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
''{The &amp;quot;dear strong bad&amp;quot; echoes, causing Strong Bad to look around a bit.  Strong Bad pronounces &amp;quot;jamie ericson&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;hamiay eric-SON&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' That's so funny that you should say that Jamie, ''{says as an unintelligible mumble}'' because I was just thinking how bored I am with your butt, and your face, and your snotty nose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{&amp;quot;nose&amp;quot; echoes, and Strong Bad looks around some more. Strong Bad clears the screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' I guess the No Loafing sign could take a cue from the fast-food, soft drink, and bad sports team industries and combat bad sales and decades of losing with a slick logo redesign.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The screen cuts back and then pans over to the No Loafing sign. The blue wall vanishes.}''&lt;br /&gt;

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{rapping to a beat}'' First you squish it, skew it, and turn it all around.  Squish it, skew it, and turn it all around.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{As he says this, the border disappears and the words are squished, skewed, and turned around. At the end, the words are at a slant.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Then we need to make it all fast and slick and shiny like Flo Jo in a tuxedo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The words curve, the tops of the letters become spikes pointint to the left, and they become all shiny.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{rapping again}'' Uh! Flo Jo in a tuxedo!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The words react to the beat of his rap, various decorations litter the screen, and a circle with a slash through it appears behind the words.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Now it's time to play Color Wheel Roulette.  No Whammies, no Whammies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The colors of the sign cycle through various schemes, finally ending up on the words being a dull yellow and the circle in the background turning a greenish tan, with the blank space in the middle turning brown.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Awww... Ouch, man. Now, just when you think you're done, you gotta dip it in molten Plexiglass...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The entire sign becomes glossy}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...to give it that &amp;quot;children under 3 are sure to choke on it&amp;quot; goodness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{With a &amp;quot;ding&amp;quot;, sparkles appear on the logo.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, wait.  Almost forgot the fangs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{With a roar, bloody fangs sprout from the logo.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to The Cheat and Strong Bad, with a new-style iMac in front of The Cheat. The logo Strong Bad described is on the monitor.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well, I don't know how we're going to print it out, seeing as how someone sliced off the back of your monitor. And quit rubbing that plastic bar of soap ''{indicating The Cheat's mouse}'' on the desk. You clearly don't have what it takes to bring NO LOAFING into the digital age. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The Cheat closes the window, and Strong Bad turns toward the camera.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' But I does!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the No Loafing sign}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Fresh from elementary school cafetoriums and lotto machines...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The No Loafing sign transforms into a cafeteria-style LED display.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' comes one of those actually pretty hard to read message board signs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{&amp;quot;NO LOAFING&amp;quot; scrolls past, followed by a crawling worm.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Capable of advanced animation, scrollabatonies...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The words &amp;quot;GRUEL IS COOL!&amp;quot; come in, with the individual pixels coming from opposite sides before meeting.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...and twelve levels of blinkiness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{&amp;quot;NO LOAFING&amp;quot; returns and the letters blink. Then the screen blinks and fireworks appear on the display.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Now we can celebrate the lack of loafing with some fireworks! And a man doing cartwheels!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The fireworks disappear and a man doing cartwheels moves across the display. Cut to Strong Bad.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' No mortal would ''dare'' loaf under the four-colored dotted digital stare of this bad boy! Y'know, unless they looked up too late, and the &amp;quot;No&amp;quot; had already scrolled off...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Scrolls up to the display just as the &amp;quot;N&amp;quot; in &amp;quot;NO LOAFING&amp;quot; scrolls off.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...so they thought that it said, &amp;quot;Do Loafing.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The words &amp;quot;DO LOAFING&amp;quot; scroll on.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Or maybe, like, Franklin Delano Loafing, our nations laziest president.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The man doing cartwheels appears after &amp;quot;DO LOAFING&amp;quot;, followed by &amp;quot;FRANKL&amp;quot; before the screen cuts back to Strong Bad's Lappy.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' That's enough loaf.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Easter Eggs==&lt;br /&gt;

*When &amp;quot;Do Loafing&amp;quot; starts to scroll by on the sign, click it to see a bumper sticker for Sucky Mountain, Colorado.&lt;br /&gt;
*At the end, click on &amp;quot;Jerk&amp;quot; which gives a &amp;quot;conversation&amp;quot; between the Cheat's version of the ''No Loafing'' sign and a Coach Z sign:&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT'S NO LOAFING SIGN''': ''(Purrs, Growls and then finally Roars)''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z SIGN''': ''(After roar) (runs away)'' Yorp, yorp, yorp, yorp, ''(exits)'' yorp&lt;br /&gt;

==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:No Loafing Marquee.png|thumb|The &amp;quot;New&amp;quot; No Loafing sign.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[wikipedia:Bluescreen|Greenscreens]] are used in filming in order to have an alternate background behind the live action. If an actor or piece of scenery is green, it will be replaced by the background. This technique is called Chroma-Key, and can actually be done with any color, though blue and green are the most popular. The green glow along the bottom edge of Strong Bad's wall is a reference to early 80s TV, when chroma-keying technology was not as good as it is now, and a green or blue &amp;quot;tearing&amp;quot; would often be seen on the edges of the green region, especially in the hair of on-screen talent during sports events or weather reports.&lt;br /&gt;
*The No Loafing Scrolling Sign is actually a [[Wikipedia:LED#LED_display_panels|scrolling LED marquee]] ''(Pictured)''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
* The Cheat's computer was updated to an [[Wikipedia:iMac Core Duo|iMac Core Duo]] (but with a Tandy logo on the front) in this email.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Transcript==&lt;br /&gt;
''{A closeup of a time clock attached to a telephone pole. A time card is punched in. The words &amp;quot;Weclome Back&amp;quot; are shown, and flash various colors. Pull out to see Bubs holding a cup of coffee, in front of a table with styrofoam cups and an urn, in the Field. Marzipan enters and also punches in.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Well, hello, Marzi-person! Welcome back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, howdy, stranger!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Stranger? I'm Bubs, remember?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{unimpressed}'' Uh, I know. It's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' That's hilarious! How was your vacation?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It was toot sweet! I took the Cool Tapes on a midwestern tour ''{the tour map pops up}'' of bead shops and topiary gardens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a topiary garden; Marzipan, Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing in the band}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{singing}''&lt;br /&gt;
:Cool tapes are cool, and we're better than ever,&lt;br /&gt;
:Cool tapes are cool, 'cause we're light as a feather.&lt;br /&gt;
:Keep it down with that real cool flavor,&lt;br /&gt;
:Me and The Cheat and our bass player.&lt;br /&gt;
:Rockin' the spot.&lt;br /&gt;
:Yeah, we're rockin' the spot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Marzipan appears behind a topiary tree shaped like William Shakespeare.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Grapes, y'all! And don't forget we've got cool 7-inches for sale over at our merch table.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the merchandise table. Homsar is standing on it, it has a sign reading &amp;quot;Merch Masala&amp;quot; and another reading &amp;quot;Steven Inches $&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font: italic 120% serif&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;amp;pi;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMSAR:''' I'm a little light in the leftovers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homsar's hat flies off the left of the screen, and comes back on from the right and settles on his head. Cut back to Bubs and Marzipan at the coffee table.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I bet you drove the shap&amp;amp;egrave;d plants wild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah, they were way into it. So what did you do?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I drove my baloney sandwich truck down to the beach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the tropical island. Bubs's &amp;quot;Baloney Sammich Truck&amp;quot;, which resembles an ice-cream truck, doesn't quite fit, and the rear wheels are in the water.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' BAH-loh-NEH!!! Come on, people! Come on, palm tree! I'm-tryingtosellabaloneysammich!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{An Atari seagull squawks and flies past.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' ''{angrily to Atari seagull}'' You shut your face!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the coffee table.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I sold exactly zero baloney sandwiches!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, that's great!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Yeah, it was pretty much my best summer ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{walks in}'' Same here. I spent two glorious weeks at Gluten Camp. I learned more about this oft-misunderstood plant protein than I ever thought possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' What''eva!'' ''{puts a time card in the time clock}'' I was across the lake at Glutton Camp. And we challenged those pansies to an obstacle course!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the obstacle course, pan across to see Strong Sad and the King of Town stuck in two tire swings.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, should we call it a draw?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Hecks, no! I got stuck in here 10 minutes before you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pan across to Coach Z.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Let's go, Glorten Camp! Glorten Camp is pain and scranin' on yous!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh yeah? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut back to the coffee table}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well while you slo-mos were slounching around on your haunchy laurels, I was checking the most amazing email of my career!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut through static to Strong Bad, holding the Lappy, on a plane. Screen markers and a recording light are visible, as though viewed through a camcorder. Strong Bad leans in and adjusts the focus.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, Lappy, when I mash record on that camera, we're gonna perform the world's first death-defying midair SBEmail check! We'll make the cover of all the latest blogs! Now, are you psyched?! I'm psyched, are you psyched?!? OK, 3! 2! 1!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad leans in and presses a button on the camera. Cut through static to Strong Bad standing on the ground. The camera drops to the ground and slowly falls over.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, the believing is hard to be doing, because that was so incredible! We met so many celebrities in midair! And the part with the narwhale ''{sic}'' was ''so'' illegal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut through static to Strong Bad, back at the coffee table}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, cuh-rap! What am I, your dad? I can't believe I pulled the old &amp;quot;mash Stop when you think you're mashing Record and mash Record when you think you're mashing Stop&amp;quot; routine on myself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' But if we've all been on vacation, who's been taking care of the website?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homestar Runner walks in, tired, wearing a dressing gown, a nightcap and Nebulon slippers, with a cinnamon 5 o'clock shadow.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{yawns}'' What's up, my brothers? Let no one say the Homestar Runner don't know how to nap. What is it, like mid-May or something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, try &amp;quot;early July.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom in.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aah! I slept through June!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Yup.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom in even tighter.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aah-! -gatha Christie would never sleep through June... neither would Angela Lansbury.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Aren't they the same person?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KING OF TOWN:''' Yep.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think they are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Yes, they definitely are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, it's settled then. Now, what's this I hear about some of you guys sleeping through June? I'll let it slide this time, but June-sleepers will not be tolerated from this day henceforth. Now, whose turn was it to ''{rolls tongue}'' bring the doughnuts?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''EVERYONE BUT HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yours!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, I'll let it slide this time, but dough-not rememberers will dough-not be tolerated from now on. All right, everybody, everybody. It's time to get this www-dot-show back on the road-dot-com. Now, places! Aaand...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to everyone standing in regular clothes in front of a plain blue background. The words &amp;quot;everybody, everybody&amp;quot; appear in front of them, zooming and flashing. The music from the [[Intro]] page plays.}''&lt;br /&gt;

:''{Pom Pom and the Poopsmith are both leaning on the palm tree on the deserted island. The Poopsmith is wearing Strong Bad's Dangeresque sunglasses, and Pom Pom is wearing Homestar's. After a few moments, a thought cloud appears and reveals that Pom Pom is thinking of a baloney sandwich. Another one appears shortly afterwards and shows that the Poopsmith is too.}''&lt;br /&gt;

==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
{{checkstuffpage}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*This toon refers to the real-life vacation that [[The Brothers Chaps]] took in the late spring/early summer of 2006, during which time the site went nearly seven weeks (48 days) without a major update, the longest hiatus on record. There were various minor updates during this period, but no toons.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Toot sweet&amp;quot; is a play on the French phrase ''&amp;quot;tout de suite&amp;quot;'' (which translates to &amp;quot;immediately&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;at once&amp;quot;). Both phrases are pronounced roughly the same.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Baloney Truck is a spoof on the [[wikipedia:Ice_cream_truck|Ice Cream Truck/Van]], which is popular in some parts of the world.&lt;br /&gt;

==Transcript==&lt;br /&gt;
''{A closeup of a time clock attached to a telephone pole. A time card is punched in. The words &amp;quot;Weclome Back&amp;quot; are shown, and flash various colors. Pull out to see Bubs holding a cup of coffee, in front of a table with styrofoam cups and an urn, in the Field. Marzipan enters and also punches in.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Well, hello, Marzi-person! Welcome back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, howdy, stranger!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Stranger? I'm Bubs, remember?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{unimpressed}'' Uh, I know. It's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' That's hilarious! How was your vacation?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It was toot sweet! I took the Cool Tapes on a midwestern tour ''{the tour map pops up}'' of bead shops and topiary gardens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a topiary garden; Marzipan, Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing in the band}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{singing}''&lt;br /&gt;
:Cool tapes are cool, and we're better than ever,&lt;br /&gt;
:Cool tapes are cool, 'cause we're light as a feather.&lt;br /&gt;
:Keep it down with that real cool flavor,&lt;br /&gt;
:Me and The Cheat and our bass player.&lt;br /&gt;
:Rockin' the spot.&lt;br /&gt;
:Yeah, we're rockin' the spot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Marzipan appears behind a topiary tree shaped like William Shakespeare.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Grapes, y'all! And don't forget we've got cool 7-inches for sale over at our merch table.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the merchandise table. Homsar is standing on it, it has a sign reading &amp;quot;Merch Masala&amp;quot; and another reading &amp;quot;Steven Inches $&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font: italic 120% serif&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;amp;pi;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMSAR:''' I'm a little light in the leftovers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homsar's hat flies off the left of the screen, and comes back on from the right and settles on his head. Cut back to Bubs and Marzipan at the coffee table.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I bet you drove the shap&amp;amp;egrave;d plants wild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah, they were way into it. So what did you do?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I drove my baloney sandwich truck down to the beach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the tropical island. Bubs's &amp;quot;Baloney Sammich Truck&amp;quot;, which resembles an ice-cream truck, doesn't quite fit, and the rear wheels are in the water.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' BAH-loh-NEH!!! Come on, people! Come on, palm tree! I'm-tryingtosellabaloneysammich!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{An Atari seagull squawks and flies past.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' ''{angrily to Atari seagull}'' You shut your face!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the coffee table.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I sold exactly zero baloney sandwiches!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, that's great!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Yeah, it was pretty much my best summer ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{walks in}'' Same here. I spent two glorious weeks at Gluten Camp. I learned more about this oft-misunderstood plant protein than I ever thought possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' What''eva!'' ''{puts a time card in the time clock}'' I was across the lake at Glutton Camp. And we challenged those pansies to an obstacle course!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the obstacle course, pan across to see Strong Sad and the King of Town stuck in two tire swings.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, should we call it a draw?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Hecks, no! I got stuck in here 10 minutes before you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pan across to Coach Z.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Let's go, Glorten Camp! Glorten Camp is pain and scranin' on yous!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh yeah? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut back to the coffee table}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well while you slo-mos were slounching around on your haunchy laurels, I was checking the most amazing email of my career!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut through static to Strong Bad, holding the Lappy, on a plane. Screen markers and a recording light are visible, as though viewed through a camcorder. Strong Bad leans in and adjusts the focus.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, Lappy, when I mash record on that camera, we're gonna perform the world's first death-defying midair SBEmail check! We'll make the cover of all the latest blogs! Now, are you psyched?! I'm psyched, are you psyched?!? OK, 3! 2! 1!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad leans in and presses a button on the camera. Cut through static to Strong Bad standing on the ground. The camera drops to the ground and slowly falls over.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, the believing is hard to be doing, because that was so incredible! We met so many celebrities in midair! And the part with the narwhale ''{sic}'' was ''so'' illegal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut through static to Strong Bad, back at the coffee table}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, cuh-rap! What am I, your dad? I can't believe I pulled the old &amp;quot;mash Stop when you think you're mashing Record and mash Record when you think you're mashing Stop&amp;quot; routine on myself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' But if we've all been on vacation, who's been taking care of the website?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homestar Runner walks in, tired, wearing a dressing gown, a nightcap and Nebulon slippers, with a cinnamon 5 o'clock shadow.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{yawns}'' What's up, my brothers? Let no one say the Homestar Runner don't know how to nap. What is it, like mid-May or something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, try &amp;quot;early July.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom in.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aah! I slept through June!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Yup.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom in even tighter.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aah-! -gatha Christie would never sleep through June... neither would Angela Lansbury.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Aren't they the same person?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KING OF TOWN:''' Yep.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think they are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Yes, they definitely are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, it's settled then. Now, what's this I hear about some of you guys sleeping through June? I'll let it slide this time, but June-sleepers will not be tolerated from this day henceforth. Now, whose turn was it to ''{rolls tongue}'' bring the doughnuts?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''EVERYONE BUT HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yours!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, I'll let it slide this time, but dough-not rememberers will dough-not be tolerated from now on. All right, everybody, everybody. It's time to get this www-dot-show back on the road-dot-com. Now, places! Aaand...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to everyone standing in regular clothes in front of a plain blue background. The words &amp;quot;everybody, everybody&amp;quot; appear in front of them, zooming and flashing. The music from the [[Intro]] page plays.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''CHILDREN:''' Everybody, everybody! Everybody, everybody! Everybody, everybody! Everybody, everybody!&lt;br /&gt;

==Easter Eggs==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Freewheelinsteve.PNG|thumb|The Freewheelin' Eh, Steve]]&lt;br /&gt;
* In Homsar's scene, click on the &amp;quot;Steven Inches&amp;quot; sign to see a &amp;quot;The Freewheelin' Eh, Steve&amp;quot; album cover. On the bottom it lists the songs ''Sweet Cups and Cakes'' by Wheelchair Man, ''Eh, Steve's Dream'' by Eh, Steve!, and ''Talkin' Trying to Catch a Worm Blues'' by Fresh Juice.&lt;br /&gt;

* Click on the left &amp;quot;everybody&amp;quot; at the end of the toon to see what Pom Pom and The Poopsmith presumably did during their summer vacation.&lt;br /&gt;
:''{Pom Pom and the Poopsmith are both leaning on the palm tree on the deserted island. The Poopsmith is wearing Strong Bad's Dangeresque sunglasses, and Pom Pom is wearing Homestar's. After a few moments, a thought cloud appears and reveals that Pom Pom is thinking of a baloney sandwich. Another one appears shortly afterwards and shows that the Poopsmith is too.}''&lt;br /&gt;

==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
{{checkstuffpage}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*This toon refers to the real-life vacation that [[The Brothers Chaps]] took in the late spring/early summer of 2006, during which time the site went nearly seven weeks (48 days) without a major update, the longest hiatus on record. There were various minor updates during this period, but no toons.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Toot sweet&amp;quot; is a play on the French phrase ''&amp;quot;tout de suite&amp;quot;'' (which translates to &amp;quot;immediately&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;at once&amp;quot;). Both phrases are pronounced roughly the same.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Baloney Truck is a spoof on the [[wikipedia:Ice_cream_truck|Ice Cream Truck/Van]], which is popular in some parts of the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==Transcript==&lt;br /&gt;
''{A closeup of a time clock attached to a telephone pole. A time card is punched in. The words &amp;quot;Weclome Back&amp;quot; are shown, and flash various colors. Pull out to see Bubs holding a cup of coffee, in front of a table with styrofoam cups and an urn, in the Field. Marzipan enters and also punches in.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Well, hello, Marzi-person! Welcome back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, howdy, stranger!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Stranger? I'm Bubs, remember?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{unimpressed}'' Uh, I know. It's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' That's hilarious! How was your vacation?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It was toot sweet! I took the Cool Tapes on a midwestern tour ''{the tour map pops up}'' of bead shops and topiary gardens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a topiary garden; Marzipan, Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing in the band}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{singing}''&lt;br /&gt;
:Cool tapes are cool, and we're better than ever,&lt;br /&gt;
:Cool tapes are cool, 'cause we're light as a feather.&lt;br /&gt;
:Keep it down with that real cool flavor,&lt;br /&gt;
:Me and The Cheat and our bass player.&lt;br /&gt;
:Rockin' the spot.&lt;br /&gt;
:Yeah, we're rockin' the spot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Marzipan appears behind a topiary tree shaped like William Shakespeare.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Grapes, y'all! And don't forget we've got cool 7-inches for sale over at our merch table.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the merchandise table. Homsar is standing on it, it has a sign reading &amp;quot;Merch Masala&amp;quot; and another reading &amp;quot;Steven Inches $&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font: italic 120% serif&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;amp;pi;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMSAR:''' I'm a little light in the leftovers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homsar's hat flies off the left of the screen, and comes back on from the right and settles on his head. Cut back to Bubs and Marzipan at the coffee table.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I bet you drove the shap&amp;amp;egrave;d plants wild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah, they were way into it. So what did you do?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I drove my baloney sandwich truck down to the beach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the tropical island. Bubs's &amp;quot;Baloney Sammich Truck&amp;quot;, which resembles an ice-cream truck, doesn't quite fit, and the rear wheels are in the water.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' BAH-loh-NEH!!! Come on, people! Come on, palm tree! I'm-tryingtosellabaloneysammich!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{An Atari seagull squawks and flies past.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' ''{angrily to Atari seagull}'' You shut your face!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the coffee table.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I sold exactly zero baloney sandwiches!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, that's great!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Yeah, it was pretty much my best summer ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{walks in}'' Same here. I spent two glorious weeks at Gluten Camp. I learned more about this oft-misunderstood plant protein than I ever thought possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' What''eva!'' ''{puts a time card in the time clock}'' I was across the lake at Glutton Camp. And we challenged those pansies to an obstacle course!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the obstacle course, pan across to see Strong Sad and the King of Town stuck in two tire swings.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, should we call it a draw?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Hecks, no! I got stuck in here 10 minutes before you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pan across to Coach Z.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Let's go, Glorten Camp! Glorten Camp is pain and scranin' on yous!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh yeah? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut back to the coffee table}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well while you slo-mos were slounching around on your haunchy laurels, I was checking the most amazing email of my career!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut through static to Strong Bad, holding the Lappy, on a plane. Screen markers and a recording light are visible, as though viewed through a camcorder. Strong Bad leans in and adjusts the focus.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, Lappy, when I mash record on that camera, we're gonna perform the world's first death-defying midair SBEmail check! We'll make the cover of all the latest blogs! Now, are you psyched?! I'm psyched, are you psyched?!? OK, 3! 2! 1!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad leans in and presses a button on the camera. Cut through static to Strong Bad standing on the ground. The camera drops to the ground and slowly falls over.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, the believing is hard to be doing, because that was so incredible! We met so many celebrities in midair! And the part with the narwhale ''{sic}'' was ''so'' illegal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut through static to Strong Bad, back at the coffee table}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, cuh-rap! What am I, your dad? I can't believe I pulled the old &amp;quot;mash Stop when you think you're mashing Record and mash Record when you think you're mashing Stop&amp;quot; routine on myself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' But if we've all been on vacation, who's been taking care of the website?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homestar Runner walks in, tired, wearing a dressing gown, a nightcap and Nebulon slippers, with a cinnamon 5 o'clock shadow.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{yawns}'' What's up, my brothers? Let no one say the Homestar Runner don't know how to nap. What is it, like mid-May or something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, try &amp;quot;early July.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom in.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aah! I slept through June!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Yup.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom in even tighter.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aah-! -gatha Christie would never sleep through June... neither would Angela Lansbury.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Aren't they the same person?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KING OF TOWN:''' Yep.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think they are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Yes, they definitely are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, it's settled then. Now, what's this I hear about some of you guys sleeping through June? I'll let it slide this time, but June-sleepers will not be tolerated from this day henceforth. Now, whose turn was it to ''{rolls tongue}'' bring the doughnuts?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''EVERYONE BUT HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yours!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, I'll let it slide this time, but dough-not rememberers will dough-not be tolerated from now on. All right, everybody, everybody. It's time to get this www-dot-show back on the road-dot-com. Now, places! Aaand...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to everyone standing in regular clothes in front of a plain blue background. The words &amp;quot;everybody, everybody&amp;quot; appear in front of them, zooming and flashing. The music from the [[Intro]] page plays.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''CHILDREN:''' Everybody, everybody! Everybody, everybody! Everybody, everybody! Everybody, everybody!&lt;br /&gt;

* In Homsar's scene, click on the &amp;quot;Steven Inches&amp;quot; sign to see a &amp;quot;The Freewheelin' Eh, Steve&amp;quot; album cover. On the bottom it lists the songs ''Sweet Cups and Cakes'' by Wheelchair Man, ''Eh, Steve's Dream'' by Eh, Steve!, and ''Talkin' Trying to Catch a Worm Blues'' by Fresh Juice.&lt;br /&gt;
* When the King of Town first appears, click on his crown to see his &amp;quot;I'm with Glutton Camp&amp;quot; T-shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
* Click on the left &amp;quot;everybody&amp;quot; at the end of the toon to see what Pom Pom and The Poopsmith presumably did during their summer vacation.&lt;br /&gt;
:''{Pom Pom and the Poopsmith are both leaning on the palm tree on the deserted island. The Poopsmith is wearing Strong Bad's Dangeresque sunglasses, and Pom Pom is wearing Homestar's. After a few moments, a thought cloud appears and reveals that Pom Pom is thinking of a baloney sandwich. Another one appears shortly afterwards and shows that the Poopsmith is too.}''&lt;br /&gt;

==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
{{checkstuffpage}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*This toon refers to the real-life vacation that [[The Brothers Chaps]] took in the late spring/early summer of 2006, during which time the site went nearly seven weeks (48 days) without a major update, the longest hiatus on record. There were various minor updates during this period, but no toons.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Toot sweet&amp;quot; is a play on the French phrase ''&amp;quot;tout de suite&amp;quot;'' (which translates to &amp;quot;immediately&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;at once&amp;quot;). Both phrases are pronounced roughly the same.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Baloney Truck is a spoof on the [[wikipedia:Ice_cream_truck|Ice Cream Truck/Van]], which is popular in some parts of the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==Transcript==&lt;br /&gt;
''{A closeup of a time clock attached to a telephone pole. A time card is punched in. The words &amp;quot;Weclome Back&amp;quot; are shown, and flash various colors. Pull out to see Bubs holding a cup of coffee, in front of a table with styrofoam cups and an urn, in the Field. Marzipan enters and also punches in.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Well, hello, Marzi-person! Welcome back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, howdy, stranger!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Stranger? I'm Bubs, remember?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{unimpressed}'' Uh, I know. It's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' That's hilarious! How was your vacation?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It was toot sweet! I took the Cool Tapes on a midwestern tour ''{the tour map pops up}'' of bead shops and topiary gardens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a topiary garden; Marzipan, Strong Mad and The Cheat are playing in the band}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{singing}''&lt;br /&gt;
:Cool tapes are cool, and we're better than ever,&lt;br /&gt;
:Cool tapes are cool, 'cause we're light as a feather.&lt;br /&gt;
:Keep it down with that real cool flavor,&lt;br /&gt;
:Me and The Cheat and our bass player.&lt;br /&gt;
:Rockin' the spot.&lt;br /&gt;
:Yeah, we're rockin' the spot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Marzipan appears behind a topiary tree shaped like William Shakespeare.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Grapes, y'all! And don't forget we've got cool 7-inches for sale over at our merch table.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the merchandise table. Homsar is standing on it, it has a sign reading &amp;quot;Merch Masala&amp;quot; and another reading &amp;quot;Steven Inches $&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font: italic 120% serif&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;amp;pi;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMSAR:''' I'm a little light in the leftovers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homsar's hat flies off the left of the screen, and comes back on from the right and settles on his head. Cut back to Bubs and Marzipan at the coffee table.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I bet you drove the shap&amp;amp;egrave;d plants wild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah, they were way into it. So what did you do?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I drove my baloney sandwich truck down to the beach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the tropical island. Bubs's &amp;quot;Baloney Sammich Truck&amp;quot;, which resembles an ice-cream truck, doesn't quite fit, and the rear wheels are in the water.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' BAH-loh-NEH!!! Come on, people! Come on, palm tree! I'm-tryingtosellabaloneysammich!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{An Atari seagull squawks and flies past.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' ''{angrily to Atari seagull}'' You shut your face!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the coffee table.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' I sold exactly zero baloney sandwiches!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, that's great!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Yeah, it was pretty much my best summer ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{walks in}'' Same here. I spent two glorious weeks at Gluten Camp. I learned more about this oft-misunderstood plant protein than I ever thought possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' What''eva!'' ''{puts a time card in the time clock}'' I was across the lake at Glutton Camp. And we challenged those pansies to an obstacle course!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the obstacle course, pan across to see Strong Sad and the King of Town stuck in two tire swings.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, should we call it a draw?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Hecks, no! I got stuck in here 10 minutes before you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pan across to Coach Z.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Let's go, Glorten Camp! Glorten Camp is pain and scranin' on yous!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh yeah? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut back to the coffee table}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well while you slo-mos were slounching around on your haunchy laurels, I was checking the most amazing email of my career!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut through static to Strong Bad, holding the Lappy, on a plane. Screen markers and a recording light are visible, as though viewed through a camcorder. Strong Bad leans in and adjusts the focus.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, Lappy, when I mash record on that camera, we're gonna perform the world's first death-defying midair SBEmail check! We'll make the cover of all the latest blogs! Now, are you psyched?! I'm psyched, are you psyched?!? OK, 3! 2! 1!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad leans in and presses a button on the camera. Cut through static to Strong Bad standing on the ground. The camera drops to the ground and slowly falls over.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, the believing is hard to be doing, because that was so incredible! We met so many celebrities in midair! And the part with the narwhale ''{sic}'' was ''so'' illegal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut through static to Strong Bad, back at the coffee table}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, cuh-rap! What am I, your dad? I can't believe I pulled the old &amp;quot;mash Stop when you think you're mashing Record and mash Record when you think you're mashing Stop&amp;quot; routine on myself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' But if we've all been on vacation, who's been taking care of the website?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homestar Runner walks in, tired, wearing a dressing gown, a nightcap and Nebulon slippers, with a cinnamon 5 o'clock shadow.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{yawns}'' What's up, my brothers? Let no one say the Homestar Runner don't know how to nap. What is it, like mid-May or something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, try &amp;quot;early July.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom in.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aah! I slept through June!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Yup.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom in even tighter.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aah-! -gatha Christie would never sleep through June... neither would Angela Lansbury.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Aren't they the same person?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''KING OF TOWN:''' Yep.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think they are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Yes, they definitely are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, it's settled then. Now, what's this I hear about some of you guys sleeping through June? I'll let it slide this time, but June-sleepers will not be tolerated from this day henceforth. Now, whose turn was it to ''{rolls tongue}'' bring the doughnuts?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''EVERYONE BUT HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yours!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, I'll let it slide this time, but dough-not rememberers will dough-not be tolerated from now on. All right, everybody, everybody. It's time to get this www-dot-show back on the road-dot-com. Now, places! Aaand...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to everyone standing in regular clothes in front of a plain blue background. The words &amp;quot;everybody, everybody&amp;quot; appear in front of them, zooming and flashing. The music from the [[Intro]] page plays.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''CHILDREN:''' Everybody, everybody! Everybody, everybody! Everybody, everybody! Everybody, everybody!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Easter Eggs==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Freewheelinsteve.PNG|thumb|The Freewheelin' Eh, Steve]]&lt;br /&gt;
* In Homsar's scene, click on the &amp;quot;Steven Inches&amp;quot; sign to see a &amp;quot;The Freewheelin' Eh, Steve&amp;quot; album cover. On the bottom it lists the songs ''Sweet Cups and Cakes'' by Wheelchair Man, ''Eh, Steve's Dream'' by Eh, Steve!, and ''Talkin' Trying to Catch a Worm Blues'' by Fresh Juice.&lt;br /&gt;
* When the King of Town first appears, click on his crown to see his &amp;quot;I'm with Glutton Camp&amp;quot; T-shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
* Click on the left &amp;quot;everybody&amp;quot; at the end of the toon to see what Pom Pom and The Poopsmith presumably did during their summer vacation.&lt;br /&gt;
:''{Pom Pom and the Poopsmith are both leaning on the palm tree on the deserted island. The Poopsmith is wearing Strong Bad's Dangeresque sunglasses, and Pom Pom is wearing Homestar's. After a few moments, a thought cloud appears and reveals that Pom Pom is thinking of a baloney sandwich. Another one appears shortly afterwards and shows that the Poopsmith is too.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
{{checkstuffpage}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*This toon refers to the real-life vacation that [[The Brothers Chaps]] took in the late spring/early summer of 2006, during which time the site went nearly seven weeks (48 days) without a major update, the longest hiatus on record. There were various minor updates during this period, but no toons.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Toot sweet&amp;quot; is a play on the French phrase ''&amp;quot;tout de suite&amp;quot;'' (which translates to &amp;quot;immediately&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;at once&amp;quot;). Both phrases are pronounced roughly the same.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Baloney Truck is a spoof on the [[wikipedia:Ice_cream_truck|Ice Cream Truck/Van]], which is popular in some parts of the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Agatha Christie|Agatha Christie]] and [[Wikipedia:Angela Lansbury|Angela Lansbury]] are not, in fact, the same person. Christie was a crime fiction author, and Lansbury is an actress famous for ''playing'' a crime fiction author on ''[[Wikipedia:Murder, She Wrote|Murder, She Wrote]]''. Lansbury however ''did'' play Christie's fictional sleuth [[Wikipedia:Miss Marple|Miss Marple]] in the movie adaptation of Christie's ''[[Wikipedia:The Mirror Crack'd|The Mirror Crack'd]]''.&lt;br /&gt;
*The spelling ''narwhale'' and Strong Bad's pronunciation of it are accepted variants; the more common spelling is ''narwhal''.&lt;br /&gt;
*When we see the back of the Lappy, it has none of the connection ports from [[isp]], but it is possible that Strong Bad's glove may be covering them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*When Marzipan's angry expression is used, blinking causes her outline to be intruded.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* Strong Bad's line, &amp;quot;I can't believe I pulled the 'Mash stop when you think you're mashing record, and mash record when you think you're mashing stop' on myself&amp;quot;, is a reference to [[Mashing Go|mashing go/play on something]]&lt;br /&gt;

[[Strong Sad]] and [[The King of Town]] spent some time at an '''obstacle course''' during their 2006 summer vacation in [[Weclome Back]].  The two were at rival summer camps &amp;quot;Gluten Camp&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Glutton Camp&amp;quot; and those attending the latter challenged those attending the former to compete in an obstacle course.  [[Coach Z]] was also there rooting for the probably non-existant &amp;quot;Glorten Camp&amp;quot;.  The course includes tire swings, tires set up for a running drill, a hurdle, and a rope seemingly suspended from mid-air. A similar supernaturally-suspended rope also appeared in [[A Folky Tale]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
That binary number &amp;quot;decodes&amp;quot; to 16458374865867118953927161832300537975316662052065178705776561632762902018567851440426044913255341527529005047465886797968528224259963746073705865966437&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;10&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;. However I'm assuming you meant &amp;quot;Binary 8-bit [[Wikipedia:ASCII|ASCII]],&amp;quot; in which case it decodes to &amp;quot;Pretty Bird May fly in the Wind.

BTW: Hooray for [[Wikipedia:Python programming language|Python]] and its builtin bignums, which I used to get that excessively-long decimal number. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 22:02, 27 May 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The current one decodes to &amp;quot;Umm... so this is another part where it's just me.&amp;quot;. You owe me a cake! And to think, i did all that with an excel spreadsheet (to get the decimal number) and the [[Wikipedia:ASCII|ASCII]] article. I need more to do in my free time...

''{Day 1}'' We arive in Hawaii at about 3:00AM (0:00 Body Time) at a little open-air airport on the west coast of the big island. We travel on the rent-a-something bus and when we get there we are greeted with very long lines. When we finally get the car, it is too small for our luggage so we go through the line again and we get a mini-van that's &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;just right&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt; OK. After we get to the hotel we find out that there was a concert for a really good band...and we miss it. So off we go up to the comfy hotel rooms as we get ready for tommorow.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
An equation derived by the twentieth-century physicist Albert Einstein, in which E represents units of energy, M represents units of mass, and c&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; is the speed of light squared, or multiplied by itself. In other words, energy equals mass times the speed of light squared. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 15:33, 13 May 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

:::In any reaction where energy is absorbed/released, including chemical reactions but most noticable in nuclear reactions (because there's more energy involved at a smaller mass), the mass of the reactants changes. The difference in the mass of the reactants, times c&amp;amp;sup2; is the energy released or absorbed - if the reactants get lighter the energy is released, and vice-versa. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 15:54, 13 May 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
That binary number &amp;quot;decodes&amp;quot; to 16458374865867118953927161832300537975316662052065178705776561632762902018567851440426044913255341527529005047465886797968528224259963746073705865966437&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;10&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;. However I'm assuming you meant &amp;quot;Binary 8-bit [[Wikipedia:ASCII|ASCII]],&amp;quot; in which case it decodes to &amp;quot;Pretty Bird May fly in the Wind. Nature can take it's''[sic]'' own corse''[sic]''&amp;quot;. BTW: Hooray for [[Wikipedia:Python programming language|Python]] and its builtin bignums, which I used to get that excessively-long decimal number. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 22:02, 27 May 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The current one decodes to &amp;quot;Umm... so this is another part where it's just me.&amp;quot;. You owe me a cake! And to think, i did all that with an excel spreadsheet (to get the decimal number) and the [[Wikipedia:ASCII|ASCII]] article. I need more to do in my free time...

''{Day 1}'' We arive in Hawaii at about 3:00AM (0:00 Body Time) at a little open-air airport on the west coast of the big island. We travel on the rent-a-something bus and when we get there we are greeted with very long lines. When we finally get the car, it is too small for our luggage so we go through the line again and we get a mini-van that's &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;just right&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt; OK. After we get to the hotel we find out that there was a concert for a really good band...and we miss it. So off we go up to the comfy hotel rooms as we get ready for tommorow.&lt;br /&gt;

An equation derived by the twentieth-century physicist Albert Einstein, in which E represents units of energy, M represents units of mass, and c&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; is the speed of light squared, or multiplied by itself.

::Ummm... I'm gonna go... [[Place]]. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 15:37, 13 May 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::In any reaction where energy is absorbed/released, including chemical reactions but most noticable in nuclear reactions (because there's more energy involved at a smaller mass), the mass of the reactants changes. The difference in the mass of the reactants, times c&amp;amp;sup2; is the energy released or absorbed - if the reactants get lighter the energy is released, and vice-versa. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 15:54, 13 May 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;[[Image:theoffice.png|thumb|220px|In all its glory]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:biz cas fri.JPG|thumb|220px|Real-life time!]]&lt;br /&gt;
'''The Office''' is where [[Strong Bad]], [[Homestar Runner]], and [[The Cheat]] supposedly &amp;quot;work&amp;quot;. Strong Bad works in a cubicle with a [[Office Computer|computer]]. He likes to put [[Dullard (comic)|comic strips]] and [[Sticky Notes|Post-it notes]] on the walls, the latter of which he believes will save the company millions. Homestar's work area was first featured in the [[Strong Bad Email]] [[isp]]. The office has a wood-paneled boardroom equipped with a [[Wikipedia:Whiteboard|dry-erase board]]. [[Shareholders]] meet there to discuss the earnings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Their work seems to involve multi-tasking, or creating the illusion of multi-tasking when they report to their superiors in the (supposed) company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rondleman, Gund[[Names ending in -erson|erson]], and Mancuso are the names of three of Strong Bad and Homestar's co-workers. Homestar seems to think that Strong Bad is Rondleman, who works in Regional Shipping Management Resources. Gunderson and Mancuso work in Accounting. Mancuso put his own three-hole punch in the microwave on at least one occasion, which led Homestar to think he sucks. Gunderson, according to Homestar, doesn't suck. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Office is also where [[Senor Cardgage]] films commmercials for his mortgage company, [[Senor Cardgage Mort-gage]]. It is supposedly where calls are transferred to and received by his many &amp;quot;handsome talking experts&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The office is also a tech support calling center where Homestar works and where Strong Bad called up in all his rage to complain about his slow internet speeds. Homestar repeats preprepared replies that are not related to Strong Bad's questions, a parody on the [[wikipedia:Tech Support|Tech Support]] of many computer companies. Homestar also claims &amp;quot;He is not in India&amp;quot;.  The email isp also suggests that The Office could be near [[Bubs' Concession Stand]] and it could also be his basement.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== When you get three or four answers correct: ===&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, brother. I know kids in diaper school that are smarter than you, man!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== When you get one or two answers correct: ===&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, that does it. You're the stupidest guy in the world -- Oh, or stupidest girl. Hey, you'll have to pardon me. I can't see very well from here without my glasses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== When you get it all wrong: ===&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{clears throat, then collapses onto the desk cracking up, randomly pounding his fist}'' You're so stupid! What a moron! You're so dumb! You didn't get any right! That's so pathetic! ''{clears throat again}''&lt;br /&gt;

** '''MICROPHONE:''' Hey, don't touch that!&lt;br /&gt;
** '''CERTIFICATE:''' Pretty impressive, huh? I bet you're pretty impressed.&lt;br /&gt;
** '''NAME PLATE:''' Hey, keep your greasy fingers off that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Spirit duplicator|Ditto machines]] were once popular in schools for making copies, and these machines typically used purple ink.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*If you right click and zoom in on Strong Bad's paper on his desk at the end, you can read what it says. It reads:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''Strong Bad isn't so strong after all. If he tried hard, which of the following could he lift?''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'' '''a.'''  an ounce''     '' '''c.'''  a week''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'' '''b.'''  a weak''       '' '''d.'''  pepper''&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*The sign on Strong Bad's desk is misspelled as &amp;quot;Prinicpal Strong Bad&amp;quot;. This &amp;quot;mistake&amp;quot; appears again in [[CGNU]] and [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 8]], and has apparently been accepted as the spelling for Strong Bad's title.&lt;br /&gt;
*Both &amp;quot;Why Must You Suck So Bad?&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;The Only Thing Wrong With You Is Everything&amp;quot; do not appear on the '''actual''' Strong Bad Sings disc, but only one is considered correct, because this quiz is referring to the Strong Bad Sings toon.&lt;br /&gt;
*Disco Tech is a homonym for the French word &amp;quot;discotheque&amp;quot; meaning dance club.&lt;br /&gt;
*On the recipe card, [[Whatsit]] is refered to as you-know-what.  This is very rare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*Cinnamon is spelled incorrectly as &amp;quot;cinammon&amp;quot; on the recipe card.&lt;br /&gt;
*Manufactured is spelled incorrectly as &amp;quot;maufactured&amp;quot; on question number 8.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*If you really are Strong Bad's kind of person, there's a glitch in the quiz that will allow you to cheat. Simply hold the mouse button down on an answer and it'll tell you if it's right or wrong. If you choose incorrectly, keep holding the mouse button and move your mouse away from the answers before you let go. It won't count it as an answer, so you can pick again. The red X that appears will remain, however.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The phrase &amp;quot;Dansk! What's that staunch?&amp;quot; is used in the song &amp;quot;[[Poot Slap]]&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Oven Mitts|oven mitts]] Strong Bad wears when offering the cookies are the same he wore in the [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad's voice going high at the end of his song may be a reference to when he does the same thing in his song &amp;quot;How Awesome I Am&amp;quot; in [[Strong Bad Sings]].&lt;br /&gt;
*On the paper below all of the question papers, the words &amp;quot;had&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;than&amp;quot;, and part of &amp;quot;problems&amp;quot; are visible. This is most likely a reference to [[Coach Z]] saying he has more than 2 problems in the [[Spin 'n Say]].&lt;br /&gt;
**If you view the source, then the following text is viewable, which when put in a proper order does imply this fun fact: &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If Homestar drank 18 glasses of melonade, if coach z really had bkbkbkbkbkkbmore than &lt;br /&gt;
hjhjhjhjhj b problems, hjhkhjkhjkhs does he            have?&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the first time an [[Index Cards|index card]] has appeared.&lt;br /&gt;
*You-know-what is another name for [[Whatsit|whatsit]].&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the first appearance of [[Cinnamon|cinnamon]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The Poopsmiths Super Deluxe You-Know-What Cookies are an example of a [[Concoctions|concoction]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Clu Clu Land|Clu Clu Land]] and [[Wikipedia:Seicross|Seicross]] are NES games.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== External Links ==&lt;br /&gt;

== Easter Eggs ==&lt;br /&gt;
* If you don't get a perfect score on the quiz, you can scroll over the microphone, certificate and name plate in Strong Bad's office and Strong Bad will say different things.&lt;br /&gt;
** '''MICROPHONE:''' Hey, don't touch that!&lt;br /&gt;
** '''CERTIFICATE:''' Pretty impressive, huh? I bet you're pretty impressed.&lt;br /&gt;
** '''NAME PLATE:''' Hey, keep your greasy fingers off that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Spirit duplicator|Ditto machines]] were once popular in schools for making copies, and these machines typically used purple ink.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*If you right click and zoom in on Strong Bad's paper on his desk at the end, you can read what it says. It reads:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''Strong Bad isn't so strong after all. If he tried hard, which of the following could he lift?''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'' '''a.'''  an ounce''     '' '''c.'''  a week''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'' '''b.'''  a weak''       '' '''d.'''  pepper''&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*The sign on Strong Bad's desk is misspelled as &amp;quot;Prinicpal Strong Bad&amp;quot;. This &amp;quot;mistake&amp;quot; appears again in [[CGNU]] and [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 8]], and has apparently been accepted as the spelling for Strong Bad's title.&lt;br /&gt;
*Both &amp;quot;Why Must You Suck So Bad?&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;The Only Thing Wrong With You Is Everything&amp;quot; do not appear on the '''actual''' Strong Bad Sings disc, but only one is considered correct, because this quiz is referring to the Strong Bad Sings toon.&lt;br /&gt;
*Disco Tech is a homonym for the French word &amp;quot;discotheque&amp;quot; meaning dance club.&lt;br /&gt;
*On the recipe card, [[whatsit]] is refered to as you-know-what.  This is very rare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*Cinnamon is spelled incorrectly as &amp;quot;cinammon&amp;quot; on the recipe card.&lt;br /&gt;
*Manufactured is spelled incorrectly as &amp;quot;maufactured&amp;quot; on question number 8.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*If you really are Strong Bad's kind of person, there's a glitch in the quiz that will allow you to cheat. Simply hold the mouse button down on an answer and it'll tell you if it's right or wrong. If you choose incorrectly, keep holding the mouse button and move your mouse away from the answers before you let go. It won't count it as an answer, so you can pick again. The red X that appears will remain, however.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The phrase &amp;quot;Dansk! What's that staunch?&amp;quot; is used in the song &amp;quot;[[Poot Slap]]&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Oven Mitts|oven mitts]] Strong Bad wears when offering the cookies are the same he wore in the [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad's voice going high at the end of his song may be a reference to when he does the same thing in his song &amp;quot;How Awesome I Am&amp;quot; in [[Strong Bad Sings]].&lt;br /&gt;
*On the paper below all of the question papers, the words &amp;quot;had&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;than&amp;quot;, and part of &amp;quot;problems&amp;quot; are visible. This is most likely a reference to [[Coach Z]] saying he has more than 2 problems in the [[Spin 'n Say]].&lt;br /&gt;
**If you view the source, then the following text is viewable, which when put in a proper order does imply this fun fact: &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If Homestar drank 18 glasses of melonade, if coach z really had bkbkbkbkbkkbmore than &lt;br /&gt;
hjhjhjhjhj b problems, hjhkhjkhjkhs does he            have?&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the first time an [[Index Cards|index card]] has appeared.&lt;br /&gt;
*You-know-what is another name for [[Whatsit|whatsit]].&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the first appearance of [[Cinnamon|cinnamon]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The Poopsmiths Super Deluxe You-Know-What Cookies are an example of a [[Concoctions|concoction]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Clu Clu Land|Clu Clu Land]] and [[Wikipedia:Seicross|Seicross]] are NES games.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as if talking into a microphone - he blows into the mic and taps it}'' Check one, check two. Sibilance. Sibilance. &amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;[[#Footnote|[1]]]&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; SBEmail.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;lappy email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;subject: Candy&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Dear Strongbad&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I was wondering, if you are so famous, popular, and a&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
chick-magnet how come you dont have any candy product...&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
or food thing... to sell..............&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
From somone thats not homestarrunnner&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{While reading, Strong Bad says &amp;quot;Dear Strongbad I was wondering,&amp;quot; as one clause, pronounces &amp;quot;dont&amp;quot; with a short O sound (rhyming with &amp;quot;font&amp;quot;), inserts exaggerated pauses at each ellipsis (even humming to himself for a few seconds while he waits on the longest one right before the end), and says &amp;quot;somone&amp;quot; as a name.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Well, of course you're not, Somone. Or else you would've fallen prey to Edgar's Baby's Daddy: my Homestar junkmail filter. ''{clears screen}'' So what&amp;lt;!-- He does not say &amp;quot;if.&amp;quot; --&amp;gt; I don't have a candy product. I betcha I will by the end of this email. I'm famous, popular, and chick-magnet enough to have a candy product. Why is it athletes are the only ones with their own candy bars? Shouldn't they have their own brand of, like, jock-strap or divorce lawyer, instead? ''{clears screen}'' For my candy bar, we're gonna need a name that's 50% Strong Bad, 50% tooth rot, and 50% ta-dah!!! How 'bou... SBLOUNSKCHED!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A brown &amp;quot;SBLOUNSKCHED! bar&amp;quot; smashes onscreen, and then disappears.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' 'Cuz that's how you're gonna feel when you eat one... like you got SBLOUNSKCHED! ''{has trouble pronouncing the end, and types it slowly}'' Now we gotta be sure and represent as many of the different states&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A candy-based periodic table covers the screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;of candy matter as possible. We’ll start with a gaseous cloud of marshmallow vapor&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{While Strong Bad says the second sentence, a pile of marshmallows appears from the left and puffs into a shiny, white vapor.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;encased in a globule of semi-solid licorice colloid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{As this is said, some black goo comes from behind and encases the vapor in a bubbly black sphere. It shrinks while it and many other identical blobs fill the lower part of the screen as the next sentence starts.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' A bunch of those will be floating in a channel of liquid nougat&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A wave of white nougat fills the lower half of the screen, and the licorice spheres begin floating in the new stream.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;which I recently found out is the candy equivalent of veal. And we roll all that up inside a solid crispety cookety log&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{At the end of the last sentence, a cookie dough log with chocolate chips wraps around the stream and puts it back to the center. It has a small stump sticking out with a leaf.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;and cover it with rich, creamy... pepperoni.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Seven slices of pepperoni drop along the top of the candy log.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Then sprinkle that with, not just crispy puffed rice, but whole tiny bowls of crispy puffed rice [[Breakfast Cereal|cereal]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{As this is spoken, twelve tiny bowls of crispy puffed rice cereal drop onto the treat.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' And finally, smother that with the ol' BBC: Boring Brown Chocolate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Liquid chocolate is poured onto the candy and completely covers it.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BRITISH-ACCENTED VOICE:''' I say...  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Now that is a confection worthy of the SBLOUNSKCHED! name.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{&amp;quot;SBLOUNSKCHED!&amp;quot; appears [[Wikipedia:Embossing|embossed]] on the candy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' But I need to think of a better shape than the standard piece-of-crap shape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad in the bathroom, reading a newspaper.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm talkin' to you, Baby Ruth. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the Periodic Table.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's see... shape, shape, shape shape shape&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The candy rapidly morphs through a series of shapes: a chainsaw, a dollar sign, a thumbs-up, a syringe, a campfire, the state of [[Wikipedia:Indiana|Indiana]] (with the word &amp;quot;BAR&amp;quot; written on it), a moustache, and the bust of Van Buren.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;ooh, what about my pants? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The candy morphs into the shape of Strong Bad's pants}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Everybody knows my pants! And they come with a built-in bite out of them ''{a bite is taken out of the pants, with a 'chomp' sound}'' for security, 'cause who's gonna steal a pair of half-eaten choco-pants?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to computer}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Man, with a candy bar like that, you could get away with anything!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A candy commercial begins. Fade in to a close-up of Strong Bad's feet and pants as he walks down a road towards the camera. The words &amp;quot;copyright 2006 Cheap As Free Foodstuffs&amp;quot; appear in the bottom-right corner for the first few seconds.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover, singing}'' You got the munch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the same scene, except now focusing on the right of Strong Bad's upper body. You can see that he is holding a SBLOUNSKCHED! candy bar. As the words &amp;quot;Crisp&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Crunch&amp;quot; are spoken, they appear on the left.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' The crisp and the crunch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The camera cuts to full shot of Strong Bad walking. You can see that he is going along an odd-looking hill.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Livin' in the gutter with&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to an alley, where Senor Cardgage is sleeping in a sleeping bag and using his Aldi bag as a pillow. Strong Bad's silhouette is seen walking past the edge of the street.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;Grandma...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the Athletic Field, where Strong Bad is in the foreground watching Coach Z struggle with a basketball over his head. On the scoreboard, [[Crazy Go Nuts University|CGNU]] has &amp;quot;0&amp;quot; points and TECH has &amp;quot;R&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' When Coach puts you in,&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad turns to face the camera, holds a SBLOUNSKCHED! candy bar up to the camera and smiles.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;you gotta go for the win.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad facing the [[Tandy 400]]. The following is displayed on the Tandy's screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

'''STRONG BAD:''' Y2K turned out all riiiight!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{When &amp;quot;all right&amp;quot; is sung, Strong Bad turns to face the camera and holds up the candy bar again. He also winks and gives a &amp;quot;thumbs-up&amp;quot; sign with his other hand. Cut to a blue background with the word &amp;quot;SBLOUNSKCHED&amp;quot; written repeated in the background. The candy bar's logo pops onscreen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{with chorus}'' SBLOUNSKCHED!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad is facing the camera. Behind him is an angry Marzipan with her art equipment, her canvas broken over her head. Strong Bad raises the candy bar to the camera again, and Marzipan smiles.}''&lt;br /&gt;

'''STRONG BAD:''' You can do it!&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to Strong Bad in his basement. Strong Sad's lower body is seen hanging halfway out of the ceiling, struggling. Debris is visible on the floor beneath him. Strong Bad holds the candy bar up again and the hanging Strong Sad gives a &amp;quot;thumbs-up&amp;quot; sign.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Crunchy chew it!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad jumps up.}''&lt;br /&gt;

'''STRONG BAD:''' You got... SBLOUNSKCHED!'' {Has slight trouble saying the name}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad freezes in midair as the background changes back to blue, with the logo beneath him. As the TV announcer speaks, two SBLOUNSKCHED bars appear on the left in their wrappers, one after the other.  A yellow oval with the message &amp;quot;Dentist Acknowledged&amp;quot; appears on the right.}''&lt;br /&gt;

*At the end of the e-mail, click the front SBLOUNSKCHED! bar to see a short scene of Homestar (dressed as a robber) preparing to steal a discarded candy product.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ooh, paydirt!  A pair of half-eaten choco-pants!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Also click the SBLOUNSKCHED! logo below the candy bars to see a short scene of Marshie's face appearing in the gaseous marshmallow vapor.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''MARSHIE:''' ''{creepy, distorted voice}'' You can't destroy me!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===	 &lt;br /&gt;
*Although the word [[wikipedia:colloid|colloids]] has several meanings, in this situation it refers to small particles that are suspended within the substance that contains them.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Sibilant consonant|Sibilance]] (or &amp;quot;sibilants&amp;quot;) is a word commonly used when testing microphones to make sure that sibilant sounds (&amp;quot;s&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sh&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;z&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;zh&amp;quot;) are picked up and balanced properly against other speech.&lt;br /&gt;
*The date shown on the Tandy 400 is Friday, December 31, 1999. It is possible that Strong Bad was changing the date to avoid the [[Wikipedia:year 2000 problem|year 2000 problem]].&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Veal|Veal]] is the meat taken from young calves, which some consider to be an inhumane practice.  It is generally appreciated for its delicate taste, tender texture, and nutritious qualities.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:BBC|BBC]] actually stands for ''British Broadcasting Corporation'', which may explain why the English voice is offended by Strong Bad's interpretation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*[[The Brothers Chaps]] have revealed that &amp;quot;Draw [[Trogdor]] again&amp;quot; is one of the top five [[Flashforward 2006 Seattle - 28 Feb 2006#Pre-animation Process - 4:05 p.m.|commonly sent emails that will not be answered]].&lt;br /&gt;
*See [[The Periodic Table of Candy Elements]] for the full table.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:DaNewsPapes.png|thumb|Da NewsPapes]]&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad's [[News Articles|newspaper]] reads as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote style=&amp;quot;font-family:Times New Roman,serif;font-size:120%&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Da NewsPapes&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
World events continued for the 43rd&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
consecutive day. This is just 3 shy of&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
the all-time record of 46. Many believe&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
this to be a sign of things to come. Ed&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Bache concurs. &amp;quot;This is a sign of&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
things to come.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;Back Pape&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Famous couples were spotted eating,&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
walking around, and on movie screens&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
across the country.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*During the SBLOUNSKCHED! commercial, you can't adjust the contrast knobs on the [[Tandy 400]] as you normally could.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Tandy gives the &amp;quot;current&amp;quot; date as month-day-year, with a 4-digit year, but it is asking for the new date as day-month-year with a 2-digit year.&lt;br /&gt;
*Requesting a &amp;quot;new date&amp;quot; at startup was very common for early Tandy computers, as many of them did not have a CMOS battery installed to keep track of the date and time while powered off.&lt;br /&gt;
*As evidenced by the &amp;quot;a:\&amp;gt;&amp;quot; prompt on the Tandy, Strong Bad exited the date program without entering the new date.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Edgar's Baby's Daddy filter screen is in the [[Compy 386|Compy]]'s [[Fonts|font]], Commodore 64, instead of Glitch0, the Lappy's font.&lt;br /&gt;
*Although licorice candy is mentioned as a part of Strong Bad's [[Wikipedia:Confectionery|confectionery]], it is the only candy ingredient of the candy bar that is not one of the visible &amp;quot;elements&amp;quot; in the periodic table.&lt;br /&gt;
*From the start of the commercial to just before The Paper comes down is exactly 30 seconds &amp;amp;ndash; the standard length of a TV commercial.&lt;br /&gt;
*Though Strong Bad says he doesn't have any candy named after him, he does have a chewing gum named after him in an Easter egg from [[2 emails]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*When Strong Bad is reading Da NewsPape, part of the text is overlapping onto the wall.&lt;br /&gt;
*When Strong Bad says, &amp;quot;I'm talking to you, Baby Ruth&amp;quot;, he doesn't move his mouth into an 'O' when he says, &amp;quot;Ruth&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fixed Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--please see HRWiki talk:Standards -&amp;gt; When TBC fix things for a discussion on this heading--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*When this email was released, there was no back button at the end. It was fixed within a day of the email's release.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Re: re: re: resending&amp;quot; is a possible reference to [[bottom 10]], where Strong Bad explains that he hates emails that have more than one Fwd: or Re: in the subject line.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Rrrrates so low!!!!&amp;quot; were once also offered by Homestar Runner to Marzipan in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 5.0]]. &lt;br /&gt;
*This is another example of [[Homestar Peeking|characters peeking]] from behind objects in the foreground.&lt;br /&gt;
*One of the rejected forms for the candy bar is the [[Van Buren|bust of Van Buren]].&lt;br /&gt;
*At the beginning of the commercial, small print at the bottom reveals that it is a production of [[Cheap As Free]] Foodstuffs.&lt;br /&gt;
*Marshie's creepy voice in the Easter egg is similar to an Easter egg in [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Edgar's Baby's Daddy&amp;quot; is another instance of [[Edgar]]-based computer protection software.&lt;br /&gt;
**In [[long pants]], Edga Jr. was &amp;quot;The Long Email Killa Filta&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;Filta&amp;quot; is used again for the latest Edgar filter, &amp;quot;Edgar´s Baby´s Daddy H*R Junkmail Filta&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
**The name of the filta states that Edgar himself is scanning the emails.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Possible caper&amp;quot; refers to [[caper]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Da NewsPapes&amp;quot; is a reference to the newspapers in [[stunt double]] and [[dangeresque 3]], which were called &amp;quot;The Local Newspapes&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*The camera rotating around Strong Bad while he's standing on the hill is a possible reference to [[Old Intro 2]].&lt;br /&gt;
*One of Homestar's email subject lines contains an example of [[be's]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The part of the commercial with Senor Cardgage sleeping in an alley is a reference to [[Senorial Day]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The SBLOUNSKCHED! bar is another example of a [[Concoctions|concoction]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Marshie's line in the Easter egg is too generic to make a reference out of. Don't add anything about it unless you have an EXTREMELY good reason to do so, and even if you do, STUFFing it is probably better.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Sibilance,&amp;quot; a word describing the &amp;quot;s&amp;quot; sound, was used by Tom Hanks in a &amp;quot;Wayne's World&amp;quot; sketch on ''Saturday Night Live'' in a soundcheck for Aerosmith.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;SBLOUNSKCHED!&amp;quot; commercial is a parody of a series of TV commercials for [[Wikipedia:Mentos|Mentos]] candies.  In these commercials, it is suggested that you can get away with virtually anything so long as you have the advertised product.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Baby Ruth|Baby Ruth]] is a popular 2-ounce candy bar in a log-shaped form. Strong Bad's comment about &amp;quot;athletes with their own candy bars&amp;quot; probably refers to the common assumption that the Baby Ruth was named after baseball great [[Wikipedia:Babe Ruth|Babe Ruth]]. ([http://www.babyruth.com/faqs.asp Officially], Baby Ruth was named after the daughter of U.S. President [[Wikipedia:Grover Cleveland|Grover Cleveland]], but this may have been a smokescreen to avoid paying royalties to the Babe.)&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;quot;Athletes with their own candy bars&amp;quot; also refers to [[Wikipedia:Reggie Jackson|Reggie Jackson]] who had a candy bar named after him in 1978. It was a circular &amp;quot;bar&amp;quot; of peanuts dipped in caramel and covered in chocolate.&amp;lt;!-- please see discussion in talk --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Wikipedia:Carmelo Anthony|Carmelo Anthony]], the starting small forward for the NBA's [[Wikipedia:Denver Nuggets|Denver Nuggets]], also briefly had his own candy bar, the &amp;quot;Melo Bar&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
**Strong Bad's later allusion to the Baby Ruth's scatological appearance is most likely a reference to a like-minded gag in the film ''[[Wikipedia:Caddyshack|Caddyshack]]''&lt;br /&gt;
*Grizzly Chomps, a Hostess-brand chocolate cupcake introduced in 1992, similarly featured a &amp;quot;built-in bite&amp;quot;. The package bore a cartoon bear saying, &amp;quot;I start 'em, you finish 'em.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Crispity&amp;quot; is a made-up word used in advertisements, along with &amp;quot;crunchity&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;peanut-buttery,&amp;quot; to describe the [[Wikipedia:Butterfinger|Butterfinger]] candy bar.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Re: PharamBlacy news&amp;quot;, which appears in the Junkmail Filta, is a subject line from an actual [[Wikipedia:E-mail spam|spam]] that was circulating in heavy volume around the time this email was produced. It advertised discount prescription drugs, and the subject had two random letters inserted where the B and l appear here.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Shemp Howard|Shemp Howard]] and [[Wikipedia:Curly Joe DeRita|&amp;quot;Curly Joe&amp;quot; DeRita]] served as the third of the [[Wikipedia:Three Stooges|Three Stooges]] at various points in the act's history.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;Periodic Table of Candy Elements&amp;quot; which appears behind Strong Bad's candy creation as he is making it is a spoof off of the &amp;quot;Periodic Table of Elements&amp;quot; which is the basis for all Chemistry and other scientific research.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:HotelLincoln.jpg|thumb|Bust of Lincoln]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The scene with morphing candy bar shapes is reminiscent of the music video for [http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/%28She_Was_A%29_Hotel_Detective &amp;quot;(She Was A) Hotel Detective&amp;quot;] by [[They Might Be Giants]], in which a revolver morphs into a keychain, a noose, an ashtray, a doorknob, a bloody knife, and a bust of [[Presidents|Lincoln]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Marshie's line in the Easter egg is too generic to make a reference out of. Don't add anything about it unless you have an EXTREMELY good reason to do so, and even if you do, STUFFing it is probably better.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;[[Image:Main22TangerineDreams.PNG|float|frame|Tangerine Dreams running Macromedia Flash.]]&lt;br /&gt;
'''[[Wikipedia:Macromedia Flash|Macromedia Flash]]''' is the program used by the [[Brothers Chaps]] to create the [[Homestar Runner (Flash cartoon)|Homestar Runner cartoons]] and [[Games|games]]. It is also the software used by [[The Cheat]] to create the [[Powered by the Cheat]] cartoons.  These games and cartoons can then be played using the [[Wikipedia:Macromedia Flash Player|Macromedia Flash Player]] included with most modern web browsers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though the [[Brothers Chaps]] generally use a [[Wikipedia:Personal computer|PC]] to run Flash, [[The Cheat]] apparently runs the program on a [[Tangerine Dreams]] computer.  It was also revealed somewhere that TBC use Flash 5 to create their cartoons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Appearances==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Macromedia Flash program on the Cheat's computer was first seen in the [[Strong Bad Email]] &amp;quot;[[crazy cartoon]]&amp;quot;. The program also made an appearance at the beginning of [[Labor Dabor]], and on [[Main Page 22]]. However, each of these appearances was only a momentary glimpse of the &amp;quot;Timeline&amp;quot; area of the program.  The &amp;quot;Mixer&amp;quot; toolbox appears in [[virus]] when the [[Sketchbook]] button is clicked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Flash Player==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most of the cartoons require [[Wikipedia:Flash version 6.0|version 6.0]] of Flash to play, but some require version 7 ([[Stinkoman 20X6]]) and recommend 8. The [[FAQ]] recommends that you get the latest version of Flash.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;[[Image:Podstar.PNG|thumb|&amp;quot;What am I doing in this tiny box?&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
'''Podstar Runner''' is a collection of cartoons transferable to a [[Wikipedia:IPod#Fifth generation|fifth generation]] [[Wikipedia:IPod|iPod]], in [[Wikipedia:MPEG-4 Part 14|.m4v]] format. It was released simultaneously with the email [[technology]]. It was originally a collection of [[Strong Bad Email]]s, but on March 6, 2006 they added [[Teen Girl Squad]] and called it ''Teen Girl Squadcast''. As of March 6, 2006 the first five Teen Girl Squad episodes have been released.&lt;br /&gt;

==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:SBEmail in iTunes 2.PNG|thumb|Podstar Runner podcast]]&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*The label on the floppy disk is unreadable, but there are [[Floppy Disk Container#podstar floppy|several possibilities]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The podcast &amp;quot;Strong Bad Email&amp;quot; became #1 on February 20, 2006.&lt;br /&gt;
*The podcast &amp;quot;Strong Bad Emails &amp;amp; More!&amp;quot; became #1 on April 6, 2006.&lt;br /&gt;
*The podcast was featured on the Podcasts main page on iTunes in the &amp;quot;New and Notable&amp;quot; section on February 19, 2006.&lt;br /&gt;
*Around March 5, 2006, the name of the podcast changed from &amp;quot;Strong Bad Email&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;Strong Bad Emails and More!&amp;quot; due to the addition of the Teen Girl Squadcast.&lt;br /&gt;
*The battery meter in the intro for the Strong Bad Emails is relatively full, while the hand-drawn intro for Teen Girl Squadcast's battery meter is almost empty.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*With the exception of [[Homsar]]'s appearance in [[dragon]], none of the Easter eggs from the original versions of the Emails are present.&lt;br /&gt;
**This egg also plays automatically in the [[strongbad_email.exe|DVD]] version of [[dragon]].&lt;br /&gt;
**All the Easter eggs in the [[Teen Girl Squad]] issues are present, and play automatically.&lt;br /&gt;
*The notice on the main page originally said &amp;quot;sbemail podcast!&amp;quot; but it was later changed to &amp;quot;sbemails on ipod!.&amp;quot; This was most likely changed after noting that Podstar Runner was not truly a [[Wikipedia:Podcasting|podcast]], due to the videos not being broadcasted through a [[Wikipedia:RSS (file format)|RSS feed]] [[Wikipedia:Web syndication|syndication]]. As of February 6, 2006, however, an official RSS feed has been released making Podstar Runner an actual podcast. On March 5, 2006, it was changed to &amp;quot;teen girl squadcast!&amp;quot; in response to the new feature.&lt;br /&gt;
*The sound quality in the iPod version of [[bottom 10]] seems to drop to regular email level after the appearance of Wet [[The Cheat]]. There also seems to be a minor sound bug while Strong Bad has the jibblies.&lt;br /&gt;
*The podstar.homestarrunner.com server doesn't have the [[404'd]] page set up; incorrect URLs will get the standard [[Wikipedia:404 error|404]] error page instead.&lt;br /&gt;
*The filename for dragon is &amp;quot;[[Trogdor|trogdor]],&amp;quot; not &amp;quot;dragon.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*Due to the size and resolution of the iPod's screen, [[virus]]'s Navbar is removed, and its &amp;quot;widescreen&amp;quot; effects removed by [[Wikipedia:Pan and scan|pan and scan]].&lt;br /&gt;
*On February 27, 2006, Podstar Runner ceased downloads of all the previously available Strong Bad Emails and only allowed downloads of the most recent Podcast. A notice on the page read &amp;quot;due to bandwidth doodoo, we're doing one at a time for now.&amp;quot; It was fixed on March 3, 2006, and all the emails could be downloaded again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*While the iPod in the background is meant to be a [[Wikipedia:IPod#Fifth generation|fifth generation]] model, the headphone port is placed in the top center of the device like a fourth generation's, rather than  at the top right.&lt;br /&gt;
*When the email ends and returns to the animated iPod menu, &amp;quot;Homestarrunner.com&amp;quot; is highlighted. However, the animated menu at the beginning of the email has &amp;quot;Email&amp;quot; selected. The iPod's memory should keep the selection where it was when you left it, not move back to the top.&lt;br /&gt;
*Many of the listed file sizes are inaccurate. The [[Podstar Runner#Downloadable Emails|table below]] shows the correct file sizes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Two podcasts.PNG|thumb|Two podcasts]]&lt;br /&gt;
*Due to the use of [[Wikipedia:Hyperlink|relative linking]] in the navbar (and depending on the browser), clicking on any of the links on the bottom of the page will sometimes work correctly but will sometimes take you to a nonexistent page beginning with ''&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;http://podstar.homestarrunner.com/&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;'', with the [[Store]] being the only exception.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fixed Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*In the XML feed, the description of [[crying]] was the same as that of [[kids' book]], namely &amp;quot;Strong Bad seriously defaces a children's book.&amp;quot; This has since been fixed.&lt;br /&gt;
*There used to be two podcasts available through iTunes Music Store: one by &amp;quot;Strong bad&amp;quot; and one by &amp;quot;The Brothers Chaps.&amp;quot; Noticeably different between the two was the logo of the two podcasts, as well as the absent &amp;quot;Clean&amp;quot; marker in the second podcast. The podcast by Strong Bad has since been removed.&lt;br /&gt;
*When Guitar was released, all the e-mail links became the same, all leading to the guitar e-mail file. Now they have reverted back to the separate names.&lt;br /&gt;
*When montage was released, the link to download montage was incorrect in the XML feed, which pointed to  &amp;quot;sb_email_motage.m4v&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;sb_email_mo'''n'''tage.m4v&amp;quot;, leaving users temporarily unable to download montage through iTunes.  This was fixed the day after.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The page title refers to the [[Strong Bad Email Intros|email intro]] of [[rampage]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The description for personal favorites reflects how TBC often get questioned about the existence of the emails.&lt;br /&gt;

'''Page Title:''' Compy 386?? Not No More.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Transcript ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Both Strong Bad and the [[Compy 386]] are absent from their usual place at the desk. Silhouettes of the Compy monitor and the keyboard are evident against the slightly faded wall and table. A tumbleweed rolls past.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{offscreen}'' It is a time of desolation, chaos, and uncertainty. Brother pitted against brother; babies havin' babies. Then one day, from the right side of the screen,&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad walks on from the right, carrying the folded-up Lappy.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;came a man. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He sits down at the desk and places the Lappy on it.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' A man with a plastic rectangle... I MEAN LAPTOP COMPUTER! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He unfolds the Lappy; the words &amp;quot;Lappy 486&amp;quot; appear on the screen with an accompanying note, then the Lappy's logo appears above; the screen becomes a black screen with a square bracket in the top left.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Now that is a classy start-up noise! ''{imitating the start-up noise}'' Dong...ding! And check out all these speculations!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Some music starts playing. Cut to the set of The Show, with a silhouetted Lappy on the pedestal. As Strong Bad speaks, the camera zooms in and the Lappy becomes visible.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' The Lappy 486 weighs in at an extremely portable forty-two pounds&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The words &amp;quot;42 POUNDS!!! (LBS.) appear in the top right.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;and features an impressive battery life&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The words &amp;quot;&amp;quot;Several&amp;quot; color monitor&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;2 MB Hard Drive!&amp;quot; appear at the top of the screen.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;of one half of ten minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The words &amp;quot;WARNING: +/- FIVE MINUTE BATTERY LIFE&amp;quot; appear under the first slogan.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' The Lappy 486&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{&amp;quot;512k RAM&amp;quot; appears next to the battery life warning}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;by Compy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The slogan &amp;quot;Finally, a computer for your lap!&amp;quot; appears at the bottom of the screen next to a Compy logo. An applause accompanies the scene. Cut back to the computer room.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' All right! Let's see if this bad boy can check some emails. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He types in &amp;quot;strongbad_email.exe&amp;quot; as with the Compy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;lappy email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;subject: made up animal&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Dear Strong Bad,&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What would you like as if you were your own made up&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
animal&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Sincerely,&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Spud Jr.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Come now, Spud Jr. What would Spud Sr. think of such nightmarish grammar and punctuation? And poor Spudmom. ''&amp;quot;What would you like as if...&amp;quot;'' I at least hope you're good at sports, for their sake. ''{He stops typing.}'' All right, I'm done. ''{He clears the screen and resumes typing.}'' Well Stu-Pud Jr., If I was my own made up animal I would probably like as the coolest made up animal ever made up. I would have all the cool animal options and accessories:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Claws&lt;br /&gt;
:Horns&lt;br /&gt;
:Tusks&lt;br /&gt;
:Tentacles&lt;br /&gt;
:Power Doors&lt;br /&gt;
:15 Year Drivetrain Warranty&lt;br /&gt;
:Proboscis &lt;br /&gt;
:Segmented Eyes&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the field, where Strong Bad stands with three compound eyes (see [[animal#Goofs|Goofs]]), two antlers, two tusks, a proboscis, four claws on each hand, and four tentacles. Homestar Runner is also present.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I say there, Monstrosity! Do you know the times?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad attempts to respond and makes gargling sound while foaming at the mouth. Homestar steps back, looking shocked. Cut back to the Lappy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Oh. I guess I couldn't really talk with that proboscis. Not that I'd have much of an answer for &amp;quot;Do you know the times,&amp;quot; anyway. Hmmm. Maybe I could be one of those deep-sea fangly fishes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the sea, rendered in [[Powered by The Cheat]] style.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' You know, the kind that have Christmas lights all over them, and those custom lures hanging over their heads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{An anglerfish with flashing lights adorning its body and Homestar's head for a lure appears.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR LURE:''' Right this way, everyone! Free puppies, ginger snaps ''{a fish version of The Cheat swims past}'', Pocket PCs...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' 'Cept I'd also have an awesome back deck on me for dinner and dancing!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A deck appears on the fish's back. Zoom in to see a woman dancing on it with Strong Bad, with some typical Powered-by-the-Cheat techno-ish music playing.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''PbTC STRONG BAD:''' Hey there, Baby Styles, do you want to watch me bench-press a lot...of weights?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR LURE:''' ''{lowers onto the deck}'' Turn it out, Strong Bad, turn it out!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Oh, wait. ''{The Strong Bad on the deck disappears.}'' How could I enjoy the dinner and dancing if I'm already the fanglyfish?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Zoom out to see the full view of the &amp;quot;fanglyfish&amp;quot;. Cut back to the Lappy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Maybe I'm overthinking this. I should just come up with a cool name and the rest will like as itself. I would be called ''{considers}'' da huuuuuudge. ''{He pronounces each letter of huuuuuudge, as if to say &amp;quot;huh-duh-juh.&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the field, where there is an enclosure. A sign on the front of the enclosure reads:}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;Please, for the love of Pete,&lt;br /&gt;
  DO NOT feed Da Huuuuuudge&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Da huuuuuudge! ''{Pronounced as &amp;quot;hudge.&amp;quot;}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A large, pus-colored, gelatinous, bubbling creature with Strong Bad's face lands in the enclosure.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Eew! No. No huuuuuudge. ''{Pronounced as &amp;quot;hudge&amp;quot; again.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Marzipan enters from the right, silhouetted, outside the enclosure.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh, wow! Look at the huuuuuudge! ''{Pronounced as &amp;quot;hudge&amp;quot; again.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Um... How about...the red steckled elbermung? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{An open book descends into the frame with a picture of a red gastropod with a pattern like Strong Bad's mask around its eyes and huge lips. The text in the book reads:}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;      R is for&lt;br /&gt;
Red steckled elbermung&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' No no no. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The lips, the eyes and the tail become annotated with the word &amp;quot;No&amp;quot; each time Strong Bad says the word.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Um...the pardack? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Some yellow lined paper descends into the frame. On it is a picture of a large blobby creature with Strong Bad's eyes, horns, duck feet, one of Strong Bad's arms and Strong Sad's leg for the other arm. Text under it reads: &amp;quot;el pardack.&amp;quot;}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' What the? ''{The pardack gains a speech bubble with the text &amp;quot;what the?&amp;quot;}'' Why do these keep coming out as nasty blob things?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Okay, okay, okay. Gotta look good for the Lappy. My made up animal ''{slight pause}'' would be called&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Badia.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Sterrance. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A blue creature with stick arms and legs, red hands, yellow feet, angel wings, a yellow tongue, buck teeth, and a pattern like Strong Bad's mask around its eyes appears. Some music starts playing.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, I did it! ''{Sterrance starts dancing}'' Look at Sterrance. Aw, Sterrance! I want one! Sterrance is way cuter than that stupid ugly old washed-up The Cheat I used to have.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the computer room. The Cheat is standing by Strong Bad, looking angry.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{angry Cheat noises}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, Captain Past-His-Prime himself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{angry Cheat noises}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, I know you heard me. And I stand by it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{angry Cheat noises; walks away}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad turns back to the Lappy, affectionately stroking it.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Don't worry about him, Lappy. That's just The Cheat. He uses ''{dismissively} new'' computers. Psssh! The Paper, come on down and meet your new brother! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The Paper begins to edge down.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Come on! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{It edges down a bit more.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' It's okay! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{It edges back a bit.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' No, ah! Come on!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{It edges down a bit.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Lappy's not going to bite you or tear at your perforated edges! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{It comes down a bit more.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' That's it! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{It comes all the way down.}'' &lt;br /&gt;

'''HOMESTAR LURE:''' Steep prices and trees! ''{these words appear on the bottom of the screen as he says them}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- Please please PLEASE stop adding in the fact that clicking causes circles to appear on the Lappy's screen; we KNOW, it's mentioned in the Lappy's article, but that's it! It doesn't belong here! Stop adding it! --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Christmas lights he mentioned on the fish refer to [[Wikipedia:Bioluminescence|bioluminescence]], which is used by various deep sea creatures to attract prey, among other functions.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;lure&amp;quot; he mentioned is a feature of many different &amp;quot;fanglyfishes&amp;quot;, including the [[Wikipedia:Anglerfish|anglerfish]], in which the lure gives off a small amount of light in order to attract fish in close enough to its mouth in order to eat it. Note that only ''female'' anglerfishes have lures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*This email was sent by the wiki's own [[User:kerrek slaya|kerrek slaya]]!&lt;br /&gt;
*The table has been re-drawn with thinner lines with no shadow along the back edge. The obvious differences can be seen with comparison to the table in &amp;quot;[[virus]].&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads &amp;quot;[[Floppy Disk Container#future wars|future wars]]&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Since the [[Wikipedia:proboscis|proboscis]] is where the monstrosity's nose should be, it shouldn't prevent him from speaking at all, but it does anyway.  &lt;br /&gt;
*The wall behind the computer had been expertly mended, leaving no seams or cracks. It is impossible to tell where the shot entered the wall after destroying Compy in [[virus]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Despite its supposed portability, the Lappy is plugged into the same socket that both [[Tandy 400|Tandy]] and Compy used to occupy&amp;amp;mdash;which is good, since well over 75% of its battery life would have been exhausted during the email. However, we never see Strong Bad plug in the Lappy. The Lappy was plugged in after Strong Bad cut away from the speculations back to the [[Computer Room|computer room]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad refers to [[The Paper]] as a male. (In the email [[invisibility]], the [[Tandy 400]] says that the ''printer'' is a female.)&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad's mention of &amp;quot;Christmas lights&amp;quot; is one of the few references to Christmas on the site, since [[Free Country, USA]] celebrates [[Decemberween]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Although Strong Bad usually only types what he is saying when his computer is visible, his voiceover for Sterrance's appearance is visible on the Lappy at the end of the email.&lt;br /&gt;
*The background &amp;quot;disco music&amp;quot; (used when Strong Bad is dancing on the back deck of the fanglyfish and in the dance club Easter egg) sounds similar to &amp;quot;Papa's Got a Brand New Pigbag&amp;quot; by Pigbag.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the opening of the e-mail, when you see the silhouettes of the Compy and the keyboard, you can see the shadow of a connecting cable from the keyboard to the Compy, even though there was never a visible cord that plugged in the keyboard.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*In the scene with Sterrance in Strong Badia, the [[Stop Sign]] and [[Cinderblock]] are on the ''left'' side of Strong Badia.&lt;br /&gt;
*The first animal Strong Bad makes up has antlers, not horns.&lt;br /&gt;
*On the list of Strong Bad's animal options and accessories is &amp;quot;Segmented Eyes.&amp;quot; The proper terminology for the multi-faceted eye found on many insects is &amp;quot;[[Wikipedia:Compound eye|Compound Eye]].&amp;quot; On the [[strongbad_email.exe]] [[#Commentary Transcript|DVD commentary]], [[The Brothers Chaps]] admit this goof and say that they found out about it by reading it &amp;quot;on [[Main Page|the wiki]].&amp;quot;  Here is a short [http://media.putfile.com/TBC-mentions-the-HR-Wiki clip] of it.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the Powered by The Cheat section with the fangly fish, when the The Cheat fish swims past it goes between the fangly fish and the christmas lights.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the [[The Show]] easter egg, there is no back deck on the fangly fish.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Lappy was mentioned in the commentary on the DVD for the email [[invisibility]] when the Tandy was replaced by the Compy.&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad's pronunciation of &amp;quot;lure&amp;quot; when envisioning the fangly fish comes from [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]]. &lt;br /&gt;
*The fact that horns is the second accessory listed for the Monstrosity is a reference to [[3 wishes]], when Strong Bad says his second wish would be horns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The new email client bears a strong resemblance to a Unix/Linux email client, [http://www.sfsu.edu/~helpdesk/docs/using/upine.htm PINE]. &lt;br /&gt;
*The Lappy's classic startup noise sounds somewhat like the startup tone on the older Macintoshes. The sound was created on the Brothers Chaps' Casio VL-Tone keyboard, using the &amp;quot;Funny&amp;quot; preset. The first note is the lowest C, the second note a C one octave higher.&lt;br /&gt;
*Sterrance's feet look remarkably like the feet of Mickey Mouse.&lt;br /&gt;
*The way Strong Bad describes Lappy is in the style of many game shows.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Lappy's logo is a reference to the Apple Powerbook's logo.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--Please do not add that the way Strong Bad describes Lappy is like &amp;quot;The Price Is Right&amp;quot; - this part of the fact was deleted while going through the STUFF process.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--The Deep Sea Fanglyfish is modeled after an Anglerfish. It's a real animal. It is not a reference to The Simpsons, Finding Nemo, Megaman 2, or anything else. Please don't add &amp;quot;references&amp;quot; it seems to be making.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*The word &amp;quot;color&amp;quot; in &amp;quot;'Several' color monitor&amp;quot; is the same font and color as the symbol for the Game Boy Color.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Babies Having Babies&amp;quot; is a 1988 hit by Terry Tate; as well as an [[IMDB:tt0088759|After School Special]] on ABC in 1986.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Brother pitted against brother&amp;quot; is a term used to describe civil war.  It originated in the Bible as a description of the end times.&lt;br /&gt;
* Styles Upon Styles is a reference to a lyric from &amp;quot;Buggin' Out&amp;quot;, a song on the seminal 1991 album &amp;quot;[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_End_Theory The Low End Theory]&amp;quot; by hip-hop group [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Tribe_Called_Quest A Tribe Called Quest].&lt;br /&gt;

=== Commentary Transcript ===&lt;br /&gt;
('''Commentary by:''' [[Mike Chapman]], [[Matt Chapman]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' So here we have the unveiling of Strong Bad's new computer after it was destroyed in the last episode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Mike, what is a tumbleweed doing in Strong Bad's computer office?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I can't&amp;amp;mdash; I can't even imagine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Look, &amp;quot;Future Wars.&amp;quot; Is that symbolic because this is the future of Strong Bad Emails?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It's definitely symbolic. I thought about that for a long time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' You didn't just think of some old game we used to have?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' No! Was that a game?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, Future Wars? By Del&amp;amp;mdash; Delphine ''{pronounces it, &amp;quot;Del-feen&amp;quot;}''? Delphine ''{pronounces it, &amp;quot;Del-fine}''?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I was just kidding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh. And a classy logo, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' &amp;amp;mdash;I might add.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' That comes to, um&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' &amp;amp;mdash;Life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Comes to life, with the yellow wig on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{as [[Female Lappy 486]]}'' Strong Bad! Don't&amp;amp;mdash;! Stave it off! It's best time!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' So this is, of course, the background from &amp;quot;[[the show]]&amp;quot; email.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' The game show background that I like so much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Looks like it might be a prize that you win when you appear on the show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh, I think that was very heavily inspired by when, uh, Kevin on ''Starcade'' is announcing the prizes on ''Starcade'', ''{Mike laughs}'' and so, I was like&amp;amp;mdash; What's that game? There was one that was a controller that they always did.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Uh, I&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I can't remember.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' A kind of joystick.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' A spud is, uh, is another word for a potato.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, they probably know that already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Who's &amp;quot;they&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Those watching&amp;amp;mdash; the viewers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I bet&amp;amp;mdash; I bet at least one person watching this didn't know that a spud was also a potato.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Well, that's probably a four-year-old&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' There you go, buddy. I just taught you something. Pay me later. Oh, we messed up here, like, he says &amp;quot;segmented eyes,&amp;quot; but he actually has compound eyes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Ohhh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Read that on the wiki.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Good job.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Goofs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Goofs. That's a total goof. Strong Bad messed up, Mike. ''We'' knew our stuff.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' That's true. We did that on purpose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. What is &amp;quot;segmented eyes&amp;quot; like?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I dunno.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Is that a made-up thing?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Maybe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I remember originally&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' &amp;quot;Segmented bodies.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' The line said, &amp;quot;segmented eyes&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;segmented butt,&amp;quot; but we cut out &amp;quot;segmented butt.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' That's too risqu&amp;amp;eacute;. Too risky.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh, so, look! The Cheat, out of nowhere! Look! There's ''my'' voice! There's the Cheat-whale.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It must feel a little weir&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' That Cheat-whale looks kinda like the Jaguar shark from ''The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It does.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' This was before that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Before that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yes, see? We're suing Wes Anderson as we speak. ''{Mike laughs}'' Litigation Jackson is on the case. ''{Mike laughs}'' ''{Pause}'' Um... I think Powered by The Cheat-style thing should assist in Strong Bad Emails more often.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Alright, let's do that for next week's email.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' All&amp;amp;mdash; All&amp;amp;mdash; Calling all Powered by The Cheats. ''{Mike laughs}'' Sorry. That thing is gross, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It is.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Look, it's like, look at the ground around it. It's greasing out everywhere.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It's really gross. That thing's ''as'' gross&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' &amp;amp;mdash;if not grosser.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' He's happy, though.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' &amp;amp;mdash;or more gross. And that thing has a Strong Sad leg coming out of it, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, his mouth is kinda like, um, Neo's mouth in, uh, ''The Matrix'' when it closes up, and it becomes like...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Ohhh, GUI? ''{pronounced &amp;quot;gooey&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' GUI. GUI mouth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Graphic user interface mouth?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look at little Sterrance!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Oh, Sterrance!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' He appears on the cover of this very DVD on the back!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Um, will we ever see him again?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' I dunno. Very possibly not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I remember, uh, some people thinking we were gonna ditch The Cheat after this email, that Sterrance was going to&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah. They really thought that Sterrance was gonna be the new sidekick for Strong Bad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He is pretty harsh to him. That'd be a sad way for The Cheat to go out. The Cheat ain't goin' out like that. Over the years, The Paper definitely has become more and more of a&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' A character.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It should have been on that big characters poster we made, I think.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah. It definitely has a personality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

''{After reading the email once, Strong Bad repeats it in rap twice. He says &amp;quot;Wash.&amp;quot; as the word &amp;quot;wash&amp;quot;.}'' &amp;lt;!-- However, he says &amp;quot;Spokane&amp;quot; correctly. It is NOT said Spo-kain. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises from offscreen}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to show The Cheat next to his keyboard}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, all right. One more time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{approving The Cheat noises}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad jumps on his stool and dances as The Cheat plays on his keyboard and dances.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{rapping}'' I had a dream that my friend had a Strong Bad pop-up book! It was the book of my dreeeams! ''{on &amp;quot;dreams&amp;quot;, he jumps up and nearly hits the ceiling}'' There you go, little one. Now get back in there and win me a car!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{affirmatory The Cheat noises; he rushes off.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the Lappy}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' You know, I feel like that sentence could really apply to anything. ''{moves the cursor up to &amp;quot;pop-up book&amp;quot; and replaces it with &amp;quot;salad&amp;quot;.}'' Like, uh, &amp;quot;I had a dream that my friend had a Strong Bad salad. ''{scrolls over toward the other &amp;quot;book&amp;quot; and replaces it with &amp;quot;salad&amp;quot; as well.}'' It was the salad of my dreams.&amp;quot; Or maybe like, ''{adds &amp;quot;taco&amp;quot; before each &amp;quot;salad&amp;quot;}'' &amp;quot;I had a dream that my friend had a Strong Bad taco salad. It was the taco salad of my dreams.&amp;quot; ''{moves the cursor below the email, types}'' Anyways, a Strong Bad pop-up book. This sounds like a job for: makin' stuff up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to an image of a pop-up book. The inside cover reads &amp;quot;From the libarry [sic] of D. Squirrel&amp;quot; with a dead squirrel drawn in. The inside cover reads &amp;quot;STRONG BAD'S POP-UP BOOK of your dreams by Strong Bad, for Strong Bad&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Strong Bad pop-up book would obviously feature...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The page turns to show Strong Bad near two cherubs. The text reads &amp;quot;This is a good kid.&amp;quot; A tab is seen under Strong Bad's head.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...me hangin' out with some of those wingaling babies! ''{The cherubs bob up and down}'' And I'd have a little tab on my flesh-tangle so you could make me talk! ''{As the pop-up Strong Bad, who waves his arms}'' You little almost-naked babies are so cute, I could just dip you in beer batter and fry you right up! ''{As the cherubs, who bob up and down}'' Okay, Mr. Strong Bad! ''{as himself}'' Oh! And don't forget the ab-tab! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The tab moves over and Strong Bad's chest obtains Sharpie abs. The page turns to reveal an image of the Tandy reading &amp;quot;HOW TYPE BOX GLOVES?&amp;quot; Two tabs are seen, one to the right of the screen and one on the keyboard. A speaker can also be seen on the keyboard.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey look! It's my crappy old computer! Asking the same crappy old questions!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The tab on the screen moves and the screen changes to &amp;quot;DELETED!!&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''SPEAKER:''' ''{very indistinctly}'' Deleted!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' The lake head? What does that mean?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The tab goes back, taking the screen with it, and changes to &amp;quot;DELETED!!&amp;quot; again.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''SPEAKER:''' Deleted!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Police quest?! This thing is obviously broken.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The other tab is pulled, and smoke appears above the computer.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' No wonder I got rid of that old buncha beige.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The page turns. Strong Sad is seen covered in cement. A forklift and Strong Bad in a construction outfit are seen in the background. The text reads &amp;quot;Strong Sad is covered in Gray cement&amp;quot; with &amp;quot;Gray cement&amp;quot; in a box. A turning wheel is seen on the right, and another tab is seen at the bottom.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, look! Strong Sad has wandered onto my construction site. What sweet fate did I bestow on him from the cement mixer? ''{The wheel turns, the liquid on Strong Sad turns red, and the box reads &amp;quot;Ram's blood&amp;quot;.}'' Ram's blood? ''{The wheel turns, the color becomes light yellow, and the box reads &amp;quot;Boston Cream&amp;quot;.}'' Boston cream? ''{Again, to a transitional color and &amp;quot;Magic Eye&amp;quot;.}'' Magic Eye? Don't forget the flab-tab! ''{The tab is pulled out, and Strong Sad's upper body flips down to make him look flabbier.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The page turns to a &amp;quot;NegativeZero&amp;quot; fridge. It has a sticky note on it that reads &amp;quot;2 more eggs!&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' The next page is snack time! What am I gonna have to eat today?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The door opens to reveal a single burger patty with two pickle slices on it. A carton of &amp;quot;mmmilk&amp;quot;, two eggs, a small paper box, a bottle of &amp;quot;pop!&amp;quot;, and a jar of mayo are drawn onto the back.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! A real-live burger! Do I get one of these every time I turn the page?!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The page turns back to the last one, and then to the fridge again. When the door opens this time, there are two burgers inside.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! ''Two'' burgers! ''{Gavin appears from under a flap and crawls around a little}'' Clearly, this pop-up book is a source of unspeakable power. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Spooky music is heard. The page turns to Homestar Runner's image, which has a black eye and two saws stuck through him.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Why look. It's the Homestar Runner! Bye, the Homestar Runner!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The page turns to extremely cartoony images of Strong Bad and The Cheat in front of a cave. The sun can be seen overhead, and there's a tree in front of the cave. There's a tab above the cave and one at the bottom of the page.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{rapidly decreasing volume}'' SeeyalaterStrongBaaa...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The rays of the sun move.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh-oh! It looks like The Cheato Bandito has stolen all of Senor Muybueno's gold!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The tree flips down, revealing a pile of gold underneath.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's help him get some Cheatsabution.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The lower tab is pulled and pushed back several times, and as it does, &amp;quot;Strong Bad&amp;quot;'s foot rises and The Cheat moves upward.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Boot 'em up, boot 'em up, boot 'em up, yoooooo. This is like kicking The Cheat light! All of the flavor, with only half the chance of rabies!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The upper tab is pulled, and a bear pokes down in the cave. The tree goes back to normal, and the page turns. Strong Bad's head, with flashing lights for eyes, is in the center. Two towers with ropes between them, and The Tire hanging from them, is in the upper-left, with a sliding tab below it. A &amp;quot;Cold One&amp;quot; is seen to the right of that, with a turn wheel above it. Near it is the BMW Lighter, with a pull tab to its right. A box is in the lower right. A cherub over a &amp;quot;FAT FRYER&amp;quot; is in the lower right, with a tab to its left. In the background, it reads &amp;quot;Slide! Spin! Grasp! Pull! His Head! Tap the flabs! Pull!!!&amp;quot; near each object.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' And the last page would be a veritable cornucop-pourri of pop-up mastery!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The various objects all move. The Tire simply falls off its wires. The Cold One has its label replaced over and over. The BMW opens up with a flame, and closes. The box flips over, revealing the same box tipped the other way. The cherub moves into and out of the fryer.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' There'd be tabs and flaps, flabs and taps, a string thing that doesn't work, and some more sound chips and dips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''SPEAKER:''' Holy crap!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Sounds like they improved on the technology since page 2! Aaaaaand, don't forget the crap-flap!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A flap turns down with a pile of whatsit underneath. Cut back to the Lappy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' So now the pop-up book is primed and ready for the four year-old&amp;lt;!--sic--&amp;gt;, or The Cheat, in your life to use as a tissue! That thing'll provide seconds of non-ripped apart fun! Speaking of seconds, I'm gonna go eat my burgers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He leaves. [[The Paper]] comes down.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Easter Eggs==&lt;br /&gt;
* Click ''Kat Spokane, Wash.'' after Strong Bad raps for The Cheat to reveal a book entitled ''&amp;quot;Cat,&amp;quot; spoke Anne, &amp;quot;Wash!&amp;quot;''.&lt;br /&gt;
* Click on the pop-up Tandy 400 after Strong Bad says &amp;quot;The Lake Head&amp;quot; to see a comparison between Strong Sad's head and [[Wikipedia:Manicouagan_Reservoir|Manicouagan Reservoir]] in Quebec, a circular lake formed by a meteor impact in the late Triassic.&lt;br /&gt;
* At the end, click ''The Cheat'' to see a clip of The Cheat, Strong Sad and Bubs playing dominoes. Bubs is smoking a cigar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:'''STRONG SAD:''' Ugh, The Cheat wins again. Pay up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

*&amp;quot;Señor Muybueno&amp;quot; is Spanish for &amp;quot;Mister Very Good&amp;quot;, which is rather the opposite of Strong &amp;quot;Bad&amp;quot;, but it is obvious that Strong Bad is just praising himself, as on Page 1, there is the text &amp;quot;This is a good kid.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

If I don't say this, someone else will. Sign your posts, man. Believe me, no one wants to build up a reputation as 71.115.222.77. Also, yes, we all feel that way too. --[[User:VolatileChemical|VolatileChemical]] 01:04, 18 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Going away? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So many of the cool people are leaving! first, Homestramy20, then Bubsty, who's next? Thunderbird L17? Hiemstern Laufer? The Paper? Me??? I wonder if the wiki just has everything. Mabye it's complete.--{{User:Benol/sig}} 15:29, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No such thing, Benol. No such thing. -[[User:Walking Armless|Walking Armless]]&lt;br /&gt;
:are you sure???--{{User:Benol/sig}} 16:14, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Oh, btw, I'm leaving and never coming back. Nice knowing you. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 17:51, 16 January 2006 (UTC) &amp;lt;!-- THAT WAS A JOKE. I'M NOT LEAVING. DON'T GET YOUR HOPES UP! (Not yet anyways)   =)  --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:::Wow, Thunderbird, you had me worried for a bit! And in case anyone's wondering, I have no plans of leaving the wiki. Oh, and my name is spelt &amp;quot;Heimstern Läufer&amp;quot;, not &amp;quot;Hiemstern Laufer&amp;quot;. The &amp;quot;i before e except after c&amp;quot; rule does not apply in German. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 17:58, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::Don't criticise me because I'm too lazy to type the &amp;quot;ä&amp;quot;!--{{User:Benol/sig}} 18:00, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Too lazy, eh? Somehow I'm not quite conviced I ought not to criticize. If you don't want to write the umlaut, one can at least add &amp;quot;e&amp;quot; after the vowel. &amp;quot;Laeufer&amp;quot; is more correct than &amp;quot;Laufer&amp;quot;. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 18:04, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::::Or you could drop the &amp;quot;Läufer&amp;quot; altogether, and just call 'im Heimstern. Or, do as I do, and use copy-paste. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]&lt;br /&gt;
::::::: '''EDIT CONFLICT:''' Okay, okay. I would probably correct your Spanish mistakes, so it's settled. I know nothing about German, and you probably don't know Spanish.--{{User:Benol/sig}} 18:08, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
I have a prediction: The next one to go will be [[User:E.L. Cool|E.L. Cool]].--{{User:Benol/sig}} 18:11, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: You're wrong. Depending on my access to the internet, it may be ''me''.&amp;lt;!-- And I'm not kidding. --&amp;gt; Although I'm coming back in February, more likely than not, and if I get internet access over the next week, I may come back tomorrow. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:13, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;To Benol&amp;gt; Surely not! Why would we even want to predict such a dreadful thing?! &amp;lt;To Jay&amp;gt; That's rough. I've had internet troubles recently too. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 18:15, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::: It's not internet troubles. It's me going out of town, and then moving. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:16, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::: I'm just saying that he will be the 1st to lose intrest in H*R--{{User:Benol/sig}} 18:17, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Come to think of it, I haven't seen The Paper around for a while... {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 18:27, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::::I saw The Paper just today. Tagged a couple of images. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]&lt;br /&gt;
:::::::E.L. Cool lose interest? Isn't he the one agitating to translate the entire H*R opus into Hebrew? Anyway, for the record, although I ''do'' anticipate being involved less than I am now at various points over the next semester (just as I did during finals of the past one), I don't really anticipate dropping out entirely anywhere in the foreseeable future. And the wiki will never be complete as long as TBC keep crankin' em out! &amp;amp;mdash;[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 19:39, 16 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::::::The sad thing of it is, I think they might be starting to get tired of it too. My bet it that the Strong Bad Emails stop at 150, to be replaced by something new. It's not my place to say, I know I'm being pessimistic, but I'm afraid the end may be in sight. -[[User:Walking Armless|Walking Armless]]&lt;br /&gt;
Listen, Benol kid, I'm not leaving anytime soon, more then that I find in somewhat insolting to have been tagged by ''someone'' as &amp;quot;The first to leave&amp;quot;. The fact that I edit in defferent hours then most of you and that I need to be less on the computer and more on my homework doesn't mean I'm leaving! {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 16:17, 17 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Ok guys, this is starting to get a little old.  Bad things happen in life: yes good users have to leave for one reason or another, the economy goes up and then down, your once spiffy video graphics card becomes obsolete.  But that's life. Remember that good things happen too! New users come, new friends are made, the economy goes back up, and those spiffier new graphics cards become affordable!  Like I said that's life.  People always need rest. (And by that I refer not just to our old friends leaving, but TBC taking a break as well!). So people, please, stop speculating, and more importantly, stop being '''''negative'''''.  This is a fun place to be as we are thoroughly documenting a fun site to see!  We all get tired at times but I think there is no place for negativity and speculation on this wiki.  That said, keep on tranglin'! Or something like that. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 16:44, 17 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Well put, Stux, well put. Yes, we know that everybody misses Bubsty and everybody wants him to come back. I know that I do. Hopefully, someday he will come back. But, as Stux said, that's life, and you're just going to have to move on. One of the most important things we learn in life to to take the good with the bad, and not to live in the past, but to hope and work for a better future. Good things will come eventually, as well as bad things. Sometimes we don't want to think about it, but at some point we all have to admit to ourselves: that's life. {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 16:51, 17 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Well, i'll tell you why i'm leaving; yeah, it does have to do with the fact that life is getting complicated, and every once in a while people need to pay attention to school, family matters... and what not. As Stux said, new users will come, and old users may go... and the sudden drop of users, if you have noticed, ae the younger, more productive ones that have to deal with school?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Well, those are my predicaments. Later. {{User:Homestramy20/sig}} 05:39, 19 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::Thats pretty much exactly the same reason I left. Slowly, this place was getting VERY overwelming. At recess I raced to the library, in hope of getting a computer, just so I could wiki. (Yup, I'm making &amp;quot;wiki&amp;quot; a verb). School is getting harder, piano lessons are getting harder, etc. I ''had'' to leave eventually. {{User:Bubsty/sig}} 05:51, 19 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Whoa&amp;amp;mdash;as both a school and a music teacher, I'm quite impressed that you're prioritizing that way. Although it's the wiki's loss, I gotta say way to go. May you be rewarded with Mad Keyboard Skillz. &amp;amp;mdash;[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 06:42, 19 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Well, trully, I'm the only one who knows the truth.

&lt;br /&gt;
== Featured Article Selection ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've noticed that the [[HRWiki:Featured Article Selection|featured article selection]] is virtually unfindable, as it is [[Special:Whatlinkshere/HRWiki:Featured Article Selection|unlinked to]] from the root of any related pages. Perhaps a link next to '''[[HRWiki:Featured article nominations|Nominate an article]]''' &amp;amp;middot; '''[[HRWiki:Featured articles|More featured articles...]]''' would be appropriate? Or even something as simple as a link in the intro text of [[HRWiki:Featured articles]]? &amp;amp;mdash; {{User:Lapper/sig}} 23:22, 21 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The reasoning behind that at the time of creation is that it would most likely be a target for vandalism if linked to from the main page (or it's talk page...), with all the links convienently laid out. We also wanted to keep edit wars down, with all the red links glowing there, I'm sure some users would have their own strong opinions abut what articles should be featured. Also because the actual selection is ultimately the job of sysops or other responsible users, nominations would probably suffice for those who want to voice their opinion. However, that was some time ago, and granted, none of these assumptions have ever actually been tested. I've gotta leave the last word up to the Admins, but I still think somewhat unlinked is the best way to go, and especially unlinked from the main page. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 00:50, 22 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== just a thought, although just a thought is an understatement ==&lt;br /&gt;
i have been patrolling the recent changes, and i think we should do some changes. for example, i have noticed a lot of edits by great users that of course, have no reason to not be marked as patrolled. i am thinking that all sysops and admins should have their edits not appear on the page. i realize this might be interfering with the software, but just a thought. {{User:Seriously/sig}} 23:39, 24 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== holy edit conflicts batman! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Has anyone else noticed that edit conflicts now happen when anyone edits any section of a page that you are editing.  This is getting to be a real nussance.  I was adding a real-world refernce and I got a edit conflict because people were editing the transcript and inside references, besides having to copy the text, it took me 3 more times to finally get my fact up. {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 14:08, 25 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Contribs link on Recent changes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I liked the experimental configuration that added a contributions link abreast to each talk link in [[Special:Recentchanges]], making edits look like this...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*([[Main Page|diff]]) ([[Main Page|hist]]) . . '''Nm&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;!&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;''' [[Main Page]]; 00:00 . . [[User:User|User]] ([[User talk:User|Talk]] | [[Special:Contibutions/User|contribs]]) ''([[Main Page|&amp;amp;rarr;]]Created Main Page)''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...instead of like this...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*([[Main Page|diff]]) ([[Main Page|hist]]) . . '''Nm&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;!&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;''' [[Main Page]]; 00:00 . . [[User:User|User]] ([[User talk:User|Talk]]) ''([[Main Page|&amp;amp;rarr;]]Created Main Page)''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Is there a particular reason why this format was turned down? &amp;amp;mdash; {{User:Lapper/sig}} 03:57, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:It's not that it was turned down... it's that it hasn't been, er, turned ''up'' yet. I created that format earlier today just to see if I could do it. Well, I could. :) But I didn't want to force it on everybody without talking about it first. &amp;amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:00, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:::No formal vote. If you guys think it's a good idea, then we'll try it out. If we try it and everybody ends up hating it, then we can easily go back. &amp;amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:04, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Well, I like it. Contribs are hard to find otherwise. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Sounds good to me. Personally, it was neat, but it did take up a bit too much space. It seems petty, but it simply added on to the length of edits. &amp;amp;mdash; {{User:Lapper/sig}} 04:06, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::Go forward. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 04:07, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
Okay, we'll give this a shot. I'm wondering what the sysops' reactions will be (we already have an extra link making the line longer). &amp;amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:10, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::I was about to ask that. It would end up being like this...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::*([[Main Page|diff]]) ([[Main Page|hist]]) . . '''Nm&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;!&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;''' [[Main Page]]; 00:00 . .

&lt;br /&gt;
On another note, where did the ''user'' link go for IP addresses?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*([[Main Page|diff]]) ([[Main Page|hist]]) . . '''Nm&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:red;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;!&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;''' [[Main Page]]; 00:00 . .

&lt;br /&gt;
Was it just deemed unnescessary? &amp;amp;mdash; {{User:Lapper/sig}} 04:19, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: I'd imagine; the &amp;quot;User&amp;quot; link for IPs was actually just a contributions link anyway. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 04:24, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::No, it was a real link to anonymous user pages. At first I thought if I was adding contribs to users, why not add a user link to anonnie, but then I realized that there would never be a good reason for that to be there (except ''maybe'' to spot anonny user pages that shouldn't be there, but that didn't seem like enough). And since I didn't want curious people to click on the links and ''create'' the pages accidentally, I took the link back out. &amp;amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:27, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Uh? I don't remember there ever being any &amp;quot;User&amp;quot; link for IPs... --{{User:Jay/sig}} 04:30, 27 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If it seems too clunky, perhaps an (optional) condensed format might work? &lt;br /&gt;

I've got wide resolution too, and I like it. Often I'm trying to find that link, and I have to beat around the bush a bit to get it.

I created a subpage that was perfectly acceptable under the rules, and upon its deletion re-created it, as the admin in question basically had abused his powers to silence those who disagreed with him. In creating several puppets, I have nothing to disrupt the Wiki; the only disruption caused by them is that some admins arbitrarily chose to consider them disruptive. My actions have only served to highlight what douchebags some admins are, that they are willing to greatly inconvenience who-knows-how-many people around the world (by blocking IP ranges and, even worse, disabling account creation), just for the purpose of stopping me from doing nothing. [[User:HRFan|HRFan]] 00:26, 30 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: Okay, I'll bite. I haven't been following this whole ordeal closely. Before I block this new name, please explain to me what the page was, why you created it, and how the admin in question &amp;quot;abused&amp;quot; his powers. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:34, 30 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: And, while we're on the subject, why this justifies setting up a gazillion sock puppet accounts. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:35, 30 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::The sysop was bazooka joe, and he didn't abuse his powers. He didn't silence those who were against him. He's not some sort of evil tyrant. You disobeyed the guy like, five times. That's whay you got blocked. {{User: Seriously/sig}}&lt;br /&gt;
::: Still, may I have the name of the deleted page? I can view old versions, so it doesn't matter if it's deleted for me. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:38, 30 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::They're deleted, so I'm not sure if you can. {{User: Seriously/sig}}&lt;br /&gt;
:::::It doesn't matter for sysops. They were [[User:Yeltensic/This page meets the subpage criteria]], [[User:Yeltensic/Save the Guestbooks!!!]], and [[HRWiki:Save the Guestbooks List]]. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]&lt;br /&gt;
:::::: '''EDIT CONFLICT'D''' I'd actually just found the former anyway. Now then: No, Yelt, those do not meet subpage criteria. The only things allowed on User Subpages are signatures, works in progress, tests, user talk archives, and so forth (see [[HRWiki:User_space|this page]]); those pages were none of the above. Additionally, the Guestbook issue was open to ''everyone'' to vote on, not just BazookaJoe and not just sysops. In fact, some sysops (including [[User:Jay|some guy]] who shall remain nameless) did not vote at all. You lost; I've had [[do over#Real-World References|issues]] that ticked me off and I lost the voting concerning them, but after realizing that I wasn't getting the support my position needed, I more-or-less dropped the issue. Drop the issue. BazookaJoe had every right to delete that page, and your insistence on keeping the page was disruptive. BazookaJoe was not showing his own ego and abusing power; rather, you were trying to inflate your own importance by overstepping the authority of the entire Wiki. And no matter what the reason, sock puppets to evade a block are against the rules. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:55, 30 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Chris, committing an action (i.e. creating a known sockpuppet) that you know will cause a specific reaction (i.e. the sockpuppet will be blocked) is an action of premeditated malice.  I completely back up [[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]], [[User:Thunderbird L17|Thunderbird]], [[User:FireBird|FireBird]], [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]], [[User:Kilroy|Kilroy]], [[User:Homestar Coder|Homestar Coder]], and every other person who at one point or another deleted your subpages or blocked your accounts.  You ''are'' disrupting our community.  We, as the people who make up this community, are the best judges of what is best for the community at large.&lt;br /&gt;
:You can also chalk up &amp;quot;personal attacks&amp;quot; to the list of reasons that you have been blocked, as we don't take kindly to being called douchebags.  We will continue to stop your immature attempts at disruption, and I would like to personally like to ask you to please stop them.  Thank you very much for your time, and I wish you luck with your future endeavors.&amp;amp;nbsp;-- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 00:51, 30 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I checked the rules again, and nope, that page was OK. Even if creating all of these puppets isn't allowed, this is a clear case of abuse of admin powers, so blame Joe, not me. As for personal attacks, I only called you guys &amp;quot;douchebags&amp;quot; after you did all of this. So that's irrelevant to any list of reasons for blocking me. I'm afraid that calling you guys that might actually sully the name of douchebaggery. [[User:KingofSlovakia|KingofSlovakia]] 01:48, 30 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Up to this point, I have refrained from vandalism, for that is unacceptably disruptive, and would impact more people than just my admin foes. However, with your behavior, you have given me no choice (I think one low point may have been when I went to my puppet pages and redirected them to my original page in order to help others who stumbled upon all of this, making it easier for them to understand what was going on and clear up any confusion, and the redirects were removed one by one). I'm afraid that you have driven me the point of committing vandalism. To any other users not involved in this mess who may be affected by it, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, and I hope you understand that I have nothing against you people; my actions are directed against these admins who I referred to as &amp;quot;douchebags&amp;quot;. Remember that they have likely done far more to inconvenience you in their attempts to stop me from engaging in behavior that they, laughably enough, consider disruptive and trollish. I'll try to avoid vandalism that will negatively impact all of you people out there. [[User:KingofSlovakia|KingofSlovakia]] 01:48, 30 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::I do not know what standards you are looking at, because your subpage was against the rules.  After all of this, you really think that we are mad at BazookaJoe?  You sincerely think that you are the good guy and we are the bad guys?  Your subpage was not a sig, work in progress, or anything of the sort, so it was against the rules.  Your vandalism is avoiding your block, which was rightly given.  And how is this a &amp;quot;clear abuse of admin power&amp;quot;?  All I am seeing is the admins blocking a kid who is avoiding a block. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 01:55, 30 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah, I think you're just being extremely arrogant. I can't help but say that. Calling sysops douchebags, being more stubborn than even ''I'' am, and disobeying tha sysops (and even admins) makes for a long list of apologies. In fact, It seems reasonable for you to just give up and admit that you are wrong, and that's that. Why do you think BazookaJoe's a sysop? Because he knows what's best. {{User:Seriously/sig}} 00:56, 31 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Is there not going to be one or something?  I've been waiting for it for too long!&lt;br /&gt;

:If it's not up yet, chances are they might be skipping it this year. I'm just hoping for a new April Fool's Day toon. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 23:59, 29 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Nice Idea, but... ==&lt;br /&gt;
I've been thinking about making a page or two discussing the history of the HRWiki itself (when it went up, major format changes, etc.) but I personally don't have the time to do something like that and haven't much knowledge of the site's full history. I think a site this extensive deserves a page about its own upbringing. If anyone else is interested in taking this idea, you're more than welcome to. -[[User:Walking Armless|Walking Armless]]&lt;br /&gt;
:Might I direct your attention to [[HRWiki:A History]]? --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]&lt;br /&gt;

== Flash Player 8 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Have any of you guys recently been asked to download Macromedia Flash Player 8?  The site is down for me and won't go back up until I do. -{{User:Marth 99/sig}} 19:33, 6 February 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I update/upgrade my browser so often (Mozilla Foundation really push out releases unlike MS)that I'm always having to re-download the plugin because it's just not installed. The entire site ''should'' in theory work with Flash Player 5 or later because we know that TBC are still making everything in Flash 5. I wonder if there's something in the HTML code of the web-pages that caused that for you... {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 19:43, 6 February 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::I have no clue what this is.  I went ot the website (as usual) and it just plain wouldn't load.  Other pictures on like the AOL Welcome screen won't load either, so I don't think its just the site.  Maybe there's something wrong with my computer? -{{User:Marth 99/sig}} 19:45, 6 February 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::''Edit conflict'' Nope. If I'm interpreting this line of HTML code: &amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;codebase=&amp;quot;http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt; correctly (and there's a fairly good possibility I'm not), then it only requires Flash Player 4 or later. ''{Code copied and pasted from the source of Main Page 3}'' {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 19:51, 6 February 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Do you already have Flash Player 8?

:I think it might have to do with the &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/H1&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; tag on the page. That's the standard HTML way to make text big, and it seems that MediaWiki is numbering it like a section for display purposes, but not for edit purposes. I know for sure that it's making the page have only 6 sections and a multitude of subsections. You want to run with that idea yourself, or is the new messages banner not so much of an annoyance for you that I can do it? {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 04:56, 8 February 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

It's on the site in both ways, and I think we need a standard, as some recent edits are only changing the spelling, and nothing else. I vote for a standard like Wikipedia uses for US/UK spellings: Use it how it's used in the toon on toon-related pages, use it how the original author used it on the page. - {{User:Kookykman/sig}} 21:33, 15 February 2006 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;[[Image:Podstar.PNG|thumb|&amp;quot;What am I doing in this tiny box?&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
'''Podstar Runner''' is a collection of [[Strong Bad Emails]] transferable to a [[Wikipedia:IPod#Fifth generation|fifth generation]] [[Wikipedia:IPod|iPod]], in [[Wikipedia:MPEG-4 Part 14|.m4v]] format. It was released simultaneously with the email [[technology]]. Currently, it features the emails [[techno]], [[dragon]], [[japanese cartoon]], [[kids' book]], [[bottom 10]], [[crying]], and [[caffeine]], although it promises to feature more in the future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Places:''' [[iPod Menu]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Page Title:''' Podstar Runner, Come On And Come On, Y'all&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Release Date:''' January 30th, 2006&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:'''Updates:''' Feburary 6, 2006; Feburary 13, 2006&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Transcript==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The Homestar Runner head from the spoof on Apple's &amp;quot;Think different&amp;quot; campaign appears. After a few seconds, the iPod menu appears and scrolls down to the bottom.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The selected email plays.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{After the email has played, the screen cuts back to the &amp;quot;iPod menu&amp;quot;. After a second, Strong Bad's head pops into view}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa, what am I doing in this tiny box? ''{starts banging his head and hands on the screen}'' Let me! Outta the! Tiny! Box!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The screen appears to shatter, with a shattering sound effect.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoops. Hope you got the extended warranty.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The shattered screen crackles, and goes black.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:SBEmail in iTunes.PNG|thumb|Podstar Runner podcast]]&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*The label on the floppy disk is unreadable, but there are [[Floppy Disk Container#podstar floppy|several possibilities]].&lt;br /&gt;
*This podcast, &amp;quot;Homestar Runner&amp;quot;, is in the top 100 comedy podcasts.&lt;br /&gt;
** The highest it has ever gotten is #23, on 13 February, 2006.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*With the exception of [[Homsar]]'s appearance in [[dragon]], none of the Easter eggs from the original versions are present.&lt;br /&gt;
*The notice on the main page originally said &amp;quot;sbemail podcast!&amp;quot; but it was later changed to &amp;quot;sbemails on ipod!&amp;quot;. This was most likely changed after noting that Podstar Runner was not truly a [[Wikipedia:Podcasting|podcast]], due to the videos not being broadcasted through a [[Wikipedia:RSS (file format)|RSS feed]] [[Wikipedia:Web syndication|syndication]]. As of February 6th, 2006, however, an official RSS feed has been released making Podstar Runner an actual podcast.&lt;br /&gt;
*The sound quality in the iPod version of [[bottom 10]] seems to drop to regular email level after the appearance of Wet [[The Cheat]] . There also seems to be a minor sound bug while Strong Bad has the jibblies.&lt;br /&gt;
*The podstar.homestarrunner.com server doesn't have the [[404'd]] page set up - incorrect URLs will get the standard ''This Page Cannot Be Found'' page instead.&lt;br /&gt;
*The filename for dragon is &amp;quot;[[Trogdor|trogdor]]&amp;quot;, not &amp;quot;dragon&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*While the iPod in the background is meant to be a [[Wikipedia:IPod#Fifth generation|fifth generation]] model, the headphone port is placed in the top centre of the device like a fourth generation's, rather than  at the top right.&lt;br /&gt;
*When the email ends and returns to the animated iPod menu, &amp;quot;Homestarrunner.com&amp;quot; is highlighted. However, the animated menu at the beginning of the email has &amp;quot;Email&amp;quot; selected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Transcript==&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' I'm livin' the Strong Bad life, I take an email for my wife. I take an email for my wife. ''{brings up and reads the email}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;lappy email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;subject: Hey Strongbad!&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hey Strongbad,&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Does Strong Badia have any Mysterious Myths or&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Legendary Legends?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Cephas&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Cornwall, CA&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad says &amp;quot;Strongbad&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;Two words. Two different words. That are not one word. That are 'Strong' and 'Bad'.&amp;quot; and the name and location as &amp;quot;Cephas Cornwall of the Corn Army&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Mysterious Myths or Legendary Legends? Isn't that a show on one of those channels up in the high hundreds? Ya know, like between the CG Dinosaur Channel and the Homes with Rollercoasters in Them Network? Well, if not, it should be! ''{makes a static-like sound}'' Come on! ''{makes it again, but this time the screen cuts to static}'' There we go.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strongbadia. Strong Bad carries a stick.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Strongbadia. An idyllic fruit-opia. Rich in madeupstories and nottrueities. The nottrue-est of which...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He prods The Tire with his stick. The Bear-Shark pops up. The Cheat runs by, panicked.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{screams in The Cheat}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...is the mighty bear holding a shark. ''{spooky music starts}'' More than a security counter-measure, its origins lie in the skies of old.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a starry sky. Constellations of the Strongbadia flag's snake, the guy with the big knife, a hand giving the &amp;quot;OK&amp;quot; symbol, a board with nails in it, General Tso's chicken, a fish with an afro, and a marathon runner.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' The stars tell us that two of the seven elemental spirits of Strongbadia, the fish wearing a 'fro wig and the marathon distance runner, combine forces to ???&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The two constellations in question fight, and in the end, the runner holds the fish over his head.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' In ???... or maybe Red Rover.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to Strong Bad}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Then, through years of bad story-telling and the telephone game,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Over the following, images of a satyr holding a fish, labeled &amp;quot;Wildernessman withst Sea-Beast&amp;quot;, an elk with a fish in its antlers, and a bad drawing of the bear-shark on the fence.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' The mythic beast transformed into the bear holding the shark we know today. These ancient fence drawings show evidence of destroyed crops, stolen babies, and family bike-rides. ''{The screen pans over to show bad drawings of the same.}'' Or family pie-sitting contests. Bear-holding-a-shark fever gripped the nation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Bubs' Concession Stand, with various Bear-Shark paraphernelia.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' ''{holding up an ice cream bar}'' We got Bear-holding-a-shark frozen delights, ''{looking at a pile of glasses near him}'' and these shot glasses are always popular with the kids. Oh, and my favorite: ''{reaches down and produces a necklace}'' these Bear-tooth-holding-a-shark-tooth necklaces!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Of course, not everyone caught the fever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Music starts and Bubs dances. Then, cut to Strong Sad. The screen reads &amp;quot;Bear Holding a Shark Skeptic&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' I'm sure it's just a weather balloon or a foreign exchange student. These strange beasts just aren't real!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to Strong Bad}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...said the elephant-footed ghost man.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;[[Image:sbemail126.png|thumb|&amp;quot;But they're still Limozeen!&amp;quot;]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:SpaceSketchBook.PNG|thumb|The Palaroncinis get animated]]&lt;br /&gt;
'''Limozeen: &amp;quot;but they're in space!&amp;quot;''' was a Saturday morning cartoon show produced by animation studio [[Metalmation]] and starring the band [[Limozeen]]. The band traveled across [[Outer Space]] in their [[The Space Machine|Space Machine]], for no good reason other than to both run away from and give backstage passes to the &amp;quot;hot babe-liens&amp;quot; of the galaxy. While most of the band was apparently represented accurately, one member ([[Mary Palaroncini|Mary]]) was portrayed with red hair and a pot-belly to add comic relief. Other characters included [[Teeg Dougland]], the band's manager who gives the band bad news, [[Mitch Overlord]], a cyborg probably intended to be the show's main villain, and the magical prankster [[Bozar]]. The space alien [[Nebulon]] made a cameo appearance. The show ended with a message from the real [[Larry Palaroncini|Larry]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The show's pilot episode (&amp;quot;Encounter at Groupulon 5&amp;quot;) was written by [[A. Chimendez]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The show had an extremely short run, being canceled ''during'' the pilot. The only known recording of the episode was created and is owned by [[Strong Bad]], which he showed off in the email &amp;quot;[[best thing]]&amp;quot;. He describes it as the best thing he has ever seen, done, or eaten. Although not currently in rotation on TV, Larry has intimated that the cartoon could move to syndication or be released on DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad's Animal Planet show from [[montage]] was also canceledc before the 1st commercial break.&lt;br /&gt;

''{reading}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;compy email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Dear Strong Bad,&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Why don't you creat a montage?&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Steve&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Surf City, NJ&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad pronounces &amp;quot;creat&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;cree-at&amp;quot; and reads NJ as &amp;quot;No Job&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' ''{in a high-pitched, mocking voice}'' Oooohhh! Why don't you creat an alternate reality where you don't have to spell correctly and I talk like this.  And your name is Watered Down! ''{Strong Bad clears the screen and continues typing in normal voice.}'' A montage, eh Watered Down? Like, about whatever? Okay. I'll make a montage about...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut to an empty field}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me. ''{Strong Bad appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And a wagon. ''{a wagon appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Full of pancakes. ''{pancakes appear in the wagon}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Diamond wipe to Strong Bad and the wagon walking past Bubs's Concession Stand.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Wipe to a field where Strong Bad kicks the wagon calmly.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad pulling the wagon uphill.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, or maybe a montage of me falling in love with the wagon full of pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Heart wipe to Strong Bad in a boat with the wagon.  They are both holding glasses of wine (or some sort of juice).}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{singing}''&lt;br /&gt;

Let's make this moment be the symbol of our lives&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon listening to a Taranchula LP on headphones.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon, under the stars. Strong Bad points to some shooting stars in the distance.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to a front door view of The Cheat and the wagon, both sporting business-class fedoras.}''&lt;br /&gt;

== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*In filmic terms, scholars David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson define a montage sequence as &amp;quot;a segment of film which summarizes a topic or compresses a passage of time into brief symbolic or typical images.&amp;quot;  Also, montage sequences generally represent a longer passage of time than the also-typical &amp;quot;dissolve&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;fade&amp;quot; techniques between shots.&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*This is an email [[Forum:1226#34044|that was sent in by an HRWiki member]]. Congratulations [[User:porplemontage|porplemontage]]!&lt;br /&gt;
*In the original version of this e-mail, the background was static while Strong Bad and the wagon were spinning around.  It has since been fixed to blurred trees.&lt;br /&gt;
*At the current email rate (about one email in a little over two weeks), The Paper will be around until late February 2007. &lt;br /&gt;
*This email introduces an updated, more symmetrical version of the gray &amp;quot;horns&amp;quot; on Strong Bad's mask.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Champeenship fight is the first time we ever see Homestar wearing pants outside of Halloween 'toons (though he almost put on a pair in [[monument]]).&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the last proper [[Compy 386]] email before the disaster in [[virus]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar gets less money for a shirt than he gets for a half-eaten breakfast burrito in [[HR:auction.html|&amp;quot;Some Type of Online Auction&amp;quot;]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad probably changed Steve's name to Watered Down to prevent another &amp;quot;[[Eh! Steve]]&amp;quot; crack, like he did in [[kids' book]] and [[different town]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The scoreboard in the gym has the word &amp;quot;TIMES&amp;quot; written under the timer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*As The Cheat keeps getting doors slammed in his face as a salesman, the last place he visits with the blue wall and white door, the door frame ends before the bottom of the toon's frame, and the right end of the door ends before the right of the frame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*Between The Wagon's picture and The Paper's picture, there's a split-second sound clip that sounds like the beginning of &amp;quot;It's&amp;quot; from the Champeenchip montage, and the easter egg at the end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The scene with Strong Bad and the Wagon Fulla Pancakes sitting in the canoe is reminiscent of [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]], where Strong Bad and Coach Z fish in the exact same spot. This is probably prompted by the [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]] DVD Commentary, in which [[The Brothers Chaps]] decide to reuse the lake, and which was presumably recorded before this email came out. In doing so, TBC also reused [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], the ketchup and fries from [[funny]], the house from [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], and [[The Movie Theatre]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Strong Bad sings when he falls in love with the wagon is reminiscent of the style of [[The Kinda Long Haired Band]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Taranchula]] album cover is the same one from the liner notes of [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], on which their song [[Moving Very Slowly]] appears. The name &amp;quot;Taranchula&amp;quot; also appears in the e-mail [[band names]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Besides the [[The Cheat's Smoking Challenge|smoking game]] and [[big white face]], this is the first actual cartoon in which we see The Cheat smoking. Strong Bad originally acknowledged The Cheat's nicotine habit in [[Where's The Cheat?]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The sparkling water seen while Strong Bad is running on the horizon seems to be the same from [[Main Page 3]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The lyric &amp;quot;Lifting weights and feeling all right&amp;quot;, from the song played during the training montage, may be a reference to [[dangeresque 3]]'s &amp;quot;Riding in a Corvette and feeling all right&amp;quot; lyric.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;The #1&amp;quot; T-Shirt is loosely referenced by Strong Sad in the commentary of [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD|In Search Of The Yello Dello]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Though the shirt Strong Sad refers to says &amp;quot;''I'm'' #1&amp;quot; according to him, as opposed to &amp;quot;''The'' #1.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad has a problem identifying things that rhyme with &amp;quot;agon&amp;quot; in song. In this email, he mistakes a wagon for a girl, and in [[dragon]] he mistakes a dragon for a man, or maybe a dragon man. He catches the mistake both times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Homestar is singing in the Easter egg (&amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot;) comes from the 1984 classic ''[[Wikipedia:The_Karate_Kid|The Karate Kid]]''.  Homestar's headband, bearing the design of an old Japanese flag, is also a reference to this film, and has appeared before in both [[pom pom]] and [[Theme Song Video]].&lt;br /&gt;
**There is actually a song called &amp;quot;Training Montage&amp;quot; from Rocky IV by Vince DiCola.&lt;br /&gt;
**The scene during which &amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot; plays in ''The Karate Kid'' is another well-known martial arts training montage.&lt;br /&gt;
*Much of the wagon's training sequence (especially the wagon &amp;quot;running&amp;quot; up the stairs)  is a parody of the training sequence from the immortal boxing epic, ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''. It could also be seen as an homage to the Matthew Modine classic ''Vision Quest'' in which the steps of a stadium are used during the workout routine. &lt;br /&gt;
*The Strong Bad easter egg is a take on the popular NES game ''[[Wikipedia:Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!|Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!]]'', in which halfway through the game players saw a similar sequence.&lt;br /&gt;
**The ''Punch-Out!!'' sequence itself was a clear reference to the training sequence in ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''.&lt;br /&gt;
*There actually is a system call in the Unix operating system called &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;creat&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;. It creat(e)s a new file.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;some guy from a zoo&amp;quot; line by Strong Bad during the &amp;quot;Late-Night Talk Show&amp;quot;-style intro is most likely a reference to how such shows often resort to the gimmick of having zoo workers appear on the show, accompanied by their animal partners, whose mischievous antics can often get a cheap laugh from the audience.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Cheat not being able to sell any toner is reminiscent of the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Salesman (film)|Salesman]]'', where traveling salesmen have varying rates of success selling Bibles.  The poorest-selling Bible seller of the group winds up losing his job.&lt;br /&gt;
*The line about Strong Bad's show being canceled before the commercial break may be a reference to ''[[Wikipedia:Turn-On|Turn-On]]'', which was cancelled 10 minutes into its pilot episode.&lt;br /&gt;
*The End Credits Photo Montage song is reminiscient of the ''[[Wikipedia:Queen (band)|Queen]]'' song &amp;quot;Headlong.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*''[[Wikipedia:Animal Planet|Animal Planet]]'' is a TV network featuring programs that talk about all kinds of animals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fast Forward===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Wagon Fulla Pancakes really ''does'' do some spots for a used car dealership, as it shows up in a commercial for [[Senor Cardgage]]'s in [[Senorial Day]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad and his pink suit from the Easter egg show up again in [[rock opera]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar's &amp;quot;weekend&amp;quot; song plays at [[The King of Town]]'s party of [[boring (really)]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In the e-mail [[best thing]], Limozeen: &amp;quot;but they're in space!&amp;quot; was canceled before the commercial just like Strong Bad's Animal Planet show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== DVD Version ==&lt;br /&gt;

('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]], [[Marzipan]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Listen... ''{Strong Bad says, &amp;quot;actress Marzipan&amp;quot; in the background.}'' And we've got Marzipan right here with us!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously, indecipherable}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He called you an actress. Isn't that nice?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Seems like usually he calls you something worse than that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Matt and Mike both laugh.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You're doing a good job acting right now, saying &amp;quot;Yeah&amp;quot; all the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, thank you. A new word.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' So, what are we here for, today?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We're doing the commentary for the &amp;quot;montage&amp;quot; email.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We're here in this tiny, glass-enclosed booth, recording some commentary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It is getting smelly in here, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It is. Mike and I have been in here all day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It smells like Fritos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Have you ever seen this email before?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I... haven't.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, he's got a wagon fulla pancakes, isn't that something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Those are not real pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' No? What are they?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I dunno, I think they're made out of plaster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Look, Mike, there's the lake that did appear later as per your, uh, prophecy on the old DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Oh, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Your comments of the&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{indecipherable}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, that we were going to use it later and&amp;amp;mdash; and we did, just a few weeks after that I think.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It really is starting to smell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Let's comment more on the&amp;amp;mdash; on the email. Is that&amp;amp;mdash; that was completely new, that&amp;amp;mdash; I mean it looks kind of like the one from &amp;amp;mdash; can't say &amp;quot;job&amp;quot; &amp;amp;mdash; doesn't it? But that theater&amp;amp;mdash;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It's been modified for the theater, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Um, we should head back there someday, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' And maybe we will.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' For a movie.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, there's your friend The Cheat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Look, the pancakes are wearing a hat, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I see.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And holding a briefcase somehow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And now they're enjoying a highball.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that The Cheat smoked!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He's got a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{whispering}'' There's your boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar had that&amp;amp;mdash; that's ''my'' shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' That's yours? Uh oh, 'cause he sells it later on in this email, so&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That was mine! I was wondering what happened to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He got a good deal for it, at least.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' What'd he get?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh, I'm not sure. Probably, like, 17 dollars.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I'll tell him he needs to split the proceeds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' He should. Sounds like it should ''all'' go to you; it was ''your'' shirt. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' A nice sunset.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pause}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Ohhh, Homestar looks like Daniel LaRusso. His Karate's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' &amp;quot;You think you can rely on that crane crap?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' He's actually trained in Tae Kwon Do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Really? Homestar is?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Wow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That's probably why he didn't do well with the Karate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughing}'' Oh ho! He learned the wrong martial art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' What do you think of this, um, end of the&amp;amp;mdash; end of the movie photo montage?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think it's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' See, look. Oh! He&amp;amp;mdash; no, sorry, I lied. He got it for three bucks. Not 17.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You got a buck-fifty comin' to ya.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I&amp;amp;mdash; Animal Planet's my favorite program.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Hey, isn't &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; spelled wrong there?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Was it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I think &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; only has one L. Let's change that before we put out this DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We can&amp;amp;mdash; ''{Pause}'' Oh, it's not over yet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, it's not, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You might think it's over, but it's not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Say something!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Now it's over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fun Facts===&lt;br /&gt;
*Daniel LaRusso is the name of the main character from ''The Karate Kid''.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Cancelled&amp;quot; appears on both the website and DVD. Though both are correct ways of spelling, &amp;quot;canceled&amp;quot; is generally a more American way of spelling it.&lt;br /&gt;
*Unlike her prior DVD commentary appearances in emails 1-100, Marzipan has largely dropped the premise that homestarrunner.com is a show and not &amp;quot;real&amp;quot; life.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;compy email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Dear Strong Bad,&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Why don't you creat a montage?&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Steve&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Surf City, NJ&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad pronounces &amp;quot;creat&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;cree-at&amp;quot; and reads NJ as &amp;quot;No Job&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' ''{in a high-pitched, mocking voice}'' Oooohhh! Why don't you creat an alternate reality where you don't have to spell correctly and I talk like this.  And your name is Watered Down! ''{Strong Bad clears the screen and continues typing in normal voice.}'' A montage, eh Watered Down? Like, about whatever? Okay. I'll make a montage about...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut to an empty field}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me. ''{Strong Bad appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And a wagon. ''{a wagon appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Full of pancakes. ''{pancakes appear in the wagon}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Diamond wipe to Strong Bad and the wagon walking past Bubs's Concession Stand.}''&lt;br /&gt;

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, or maybe a montage of me falling in love with the wagon full of pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Heart wipe to Strong Bad in a boat with the wagon.  They are both holding glasses of wine (or some sort of juice).}''&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to Strong Bad frolicking across a field as the wagon follows.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to a front door view of The Cheat and the wagon, both sporting business-class fedoras.}''&lt;br /&gt;

== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*In filmic terms, scholars David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson define a montage sequence as &amp;quot;a segment of film which summarizes a topic or compresses a passage of time into brief symbolic or typical images.&amp;quot;  Also, montage sequences generally represent a longer passage of time than the also-typical &amp;quot;dissolve&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;fade&amp;quot; techniques between shots.&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*This is an email [[Forum:1226#34044|that was sent in by an HRWiki member]]. Congratulations [[User:porplemontage|porplemontage]]!&lt;br /&gt;
*In the original version of this e-mail, the background was static while Strong Bad and the wagon were spinning around.  It has since been fixed to blurred trees.&lt;br /&gt;
*At the current email rate (about one email in a little over two weeks), The Paper will be around until late February 2007. &lt;br /&gt;
*This email introduces an updated, more symmetrical version of the gray &amp;quot;horns&amp;quot; on Strong Bad's mask.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Champeenship fight is the first time we ever see Homestar wearing pants outside of Halloween 'toons (though he almost put on a pair in [[monument]]).&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the last proper [[Compy 386]] email before the disaster in [[virus]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar gets less money for a shirt than he gets for a half-eaten breakfast burrito in [[HR:auction.html|&amp;quot;Some Type of Online Auction&amp;quot;]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad probably changed Steve's name to Watered Down to prevent another &amp;quot;[[Eh! Steve]]&amp;quot; crack, like he did in [[kids' book]] and [[different town]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The scoreboard in the gym has the word &amp;quot;TIMES&amp;quot; written under the timer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*As The Cheat keeps getting doors slammed in his face as a salesman, the last place he visits with the blue wall and white door, the door frame ends before the bottom of the toon's frame, and the right end of the door ends before the right of the frame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*Between The Wagon's picture and The Paper's picture, there's a split-second sound clip that sounds like the beginning of &amp;quot;It's&amp;quot; from the Champeenchip montage, and the easter egg at the end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The scene with Strong Bad and the Wagon Fulla Pancakes sitting in the canoe is reminiscent of [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]], where Strong Bad and Coach Z fish in the exact same spot. This is probably prompted by the [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]] DVD Commentary, in which [[The Brothers Chaps]] decide to reuse the lake, and which was presumably recorded before this email came out. In doing so, TBC also reused [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], the ketchup and fries from [[funny]], the house from [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], and [[The Movie Theatre]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Strong Bad sings when he falls in love with the wagon is reminiscent of the style of [[The Kinda Long Haired Band]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Taranchula]] album cover is the same one from the liner notes of [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], on which their song [[Moving Very Slowly]] appears. The name &amp;quot;Taranchula&amp;quot; also appears in the e-mail [[band names]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Besides the [[The Cheat's Smoking Challenge|smoking game]] and [[big white face]], this is the first actual cartoon in which we see The Cheat smoking. Strong Bad originally acknowledged The Cheat's nicotine habit in [[Where's The Cheat?]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The sparkling water seen while Strong Bad is running on the horizon seems to be the same from [[Main Page 3]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The lyric &amp;quot;Lifting weights and feeling all right&amp;quot;, from the song played during the training montage, may be a reference to [[dangeresque 3]]'s &amp;quot;Riding in a Corvette and feeling all right&amp;quot; lyric.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;The #1&amp;quot; T-Shirt is loosely referenced by Strong Sad in the commentary of [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD|In Search Of The Yello Dello]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Though the shirt Strong Sad refers to says &amp;quot;''I'm'' #1&amp;quot; according to him, as opposed to &amp;quot;''The'' #1.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad has a problem identifying things that rhyme with &amp;quot;agon&amp;quot; in song. In this email, he mistakes a wagon for a girl, and in [[dragon]] he mistakes a dragon for a man, or maybe a dragon man. He catches the mistake both times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Homestar is singing in the Easter egg (&amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot;) comes from the 1984 classic ''[[Wikipedia:The_Karate_Kid|The Karate Kid]]''.  Homestar's headband, bearing the design of an old Japanese flag, is also a reference to this film, and has appeared before in both [[pom pom]] and [[Theme Song Video]].&lt;br /&gt;
**There is actually a song called &amp;quot;Training Montage&amp;quot; from Rocky IV by Vince DiCola.&lt;br /&gt;
**The scene during which &amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot; plays in ''The Karate Kid'' is another well-known martial arts training montage.&lt;br /&gt;
*Much of the wagon's training sequence (especially the wagon &amp;quot;running&amp;quot; up the stairs)  is a parody of the training sequence from the immortal boxing epic, ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''. It could also be seen as an homage to the Matthew Modine classic ''Vision Quest'' in which the steps of a stadium are used during the workout routine. &lt;br /&gt;
*The Strong Bad easter egg is a take on the popular NES game ''[[Wikipedia:Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!|Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!]]'', in which halfway through the game players saw a similar sequence.&lt;br /&gt;
**The ''Punch-Out!!'' sequence itself was a clear reference to the training sequence in ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''.&lt;br /&gt;
*There actually is a system call in the Unix operating system called &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;creat&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;. It creat(e)s a new file.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;some guy from a zoo&amp;quot; line by Strong Bad during the &amp;quot;Late-Night Talk Show&amp;quot;-style intro is most likely a reference to how such shows often resort to the gimmick of having zoo workers appear on the show, accompanied by their animal partners, whose mischievous antics can often get a cheap laugh from the audience.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Cheat not being able to sell any toner is reminiscent of the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Salesman (film)|Salesman]]'', where traveling salesmen have varying rates of success selling Bibles.  The poorest-selling Bible seller of the group winds up losing his job.&lt;br /&gt;
*The line about Strong Bad's show being canceled before the commercial break may be a reference to ''[[Wikipedia:Turn-On|Turn-On]]'', which was cancelled 10 minutes into its pilot episode.&lt;br /&gt;
*The End Credits Photo Montage song is reminiscient of the ''[[Wikipedia:Queen (band)|Queen]]'' song &amp;quot;Headlong.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*''[[Wikipedia:Animal Planet|Animal Planet]]'' is a TV network featuring programs that talk about all kinds of animals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fast Forward===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Wagon Fulla Pancakes really ''does'' do some spots for a used car dealership, as it shows up in a commercial for [[Senor Cardgage]]'s in [[Senorial Day]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad and his pink suit from the Easter egg show up again in [[rock opera]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar's &amp;quot;weekend&amp;quot; song plays at [[The King of Town]]'s party of [[boring (really)]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In the e-mail [[best thing]], [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Limozeen:_%22but_they%27re_in_space%21%22|Limozeen &amp;quot;But They're in Space!&amp;quot;] was canceled before the commercial just like Strong Bad's Animal Planet show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== DVD Version ==&lt;br /&gt;
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.&lt;br /&gt;

('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]], [[Marzipan]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Listen... ''{Strong Bad says, &amp;quot;actress Marzipan&amp;quot; in the background.}'' And we've got Marzipan right here with us!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously, indecipherable}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He called you an actress. Isn't that nice?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Seems like usually he calls you something worse than that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Matt and Mike both laugh.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You're doing a good job acting right now, saying &amp;quot;Yeah&amp;quot; all the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, thank you. A new word.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' So, what are we here for, today?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We're doing the commentary for the &amp;quot;montage&amp;quot; email.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We're here in this tiny, glass-enclosed booth, recording some commentary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It is getting smelly in here, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It is. Mike and I have been in here all day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It smells like Fritos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Have you ever seen this email before?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I... haven't.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, he's got a wagon fulla pancakes, isn't that something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Those are not real pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' No? What are they?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I dunno, I think they're made out of plaster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Look, Mike, there's the lake that did appear later as per your, uh, prophecy on the old DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Oh, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Your comments of the&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{indecipherable}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, that we were going to use it later and&amp;amp;mdash; and we did, just a few weeks after that I think.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It really is starting to smell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Let's comment more on the&amp;amp;mdash; on the email. Is that&amp;amp;mdash; that was completely new, that&amp;amp;mdash; I mean it looks kind of like the one from &amp;amp;mdash; can't say &amp;quot;job&amp;quot; &amp;amp;mdash; doesn't it? But that theater&amp;amp;mdash;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It's been modified for the theater, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Um, we should head back there someday, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' And maybe we will.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' For a movie.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, there's your friend The Cheat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Look, the pancakes are wearing a hat, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I see.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And holding a briefcase somehow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And now they're enjoying a highball.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that The Cheat smoked!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He's got a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{whispering}'' There's your boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar had that&amp;amp;mdash; that's ''my'' shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' That's yours? Uh oh, 'cause he sells it later on in this email, so&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That was mine! I was wondering what happened to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He got a good deal for it, at least.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' What'd he get?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh, I'm not sure. Probably, like, 17 dollars.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I'll tell him he needs to split the proceeds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' He should. Sounds like it should ''all'' go to you; it was ''your'' shirt. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' A nice sunset.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pause}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Ohhh, Homestar looks like Daniel LaRusso. His Karate's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' &amp;quot;You think you can rely on that crane crap?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' He's actually trained in Tae Kwon Do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Really? Homestar is?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Wow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That's probably why he didn't do well with the Karate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughing}'' Oh ho! He learned the wrong martial art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' What do you think of this, um, end of the&amp;amp;mdash; end of the movie photo montage?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think it's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' See, look. Oh! He&amp;amp;mdash; no, sorry, I lied. He got it for three bucks. Not 17.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You got a buck-fifty comin' to ya.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I&amp;amp;mdash; Animal Planet's my favorite program.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Hey, isn't &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; spelled wrong there?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Was it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I think &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; only has one L. Let's change that before we put out this DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We can&amp;amp;mdash; ''{Pause}'' Oh, it's not over yet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, it's not, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You might think it's over, but it's not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Say something!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Now it's over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fun Facts===&lt;br /&gt;
*Daniel LaRusso is the name of the main character from ''The Karate Kid''.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Cancelled&amp;quot; appears on both the website and DVD. Though both are correct ways of spelling, &amp;quot;canceled&amp;quot; is generally a more American way of spelling it.&lt;br /&gt;
*Unlike her prior DVD commentary appearances in emails 1-100, Marzipan has largely dropped the premise that homestarrunner.com is a show and not &amp;quot;real&amp;quot; life.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;compy email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Dear Strong Bad,&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Why don't you creat a montage?&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Steve&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Surf City, NJ&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad pronounces &amp;quot;creat&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;cree-at&amp;quot; and reads NJ as &amp;quot;No Job&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' ''{in a high-pitched, mocking voice}'' Oooohhh! Why don't you creat an alternate reality where you don't have to spell correctly and I talk like this.  And your name is Watered Down! ''{Strong Bad clears the screen and continues typing in normal voice.}'' A montage, eh Watered Down? Like, about whatever? Okay. I'll make a montage about...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut to an empty field}''&lt;br /&gt;

Me. ''{Strong Bad appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And a wagon. ''{a wagon appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Full of pancakes. ''{pancakes appear in the wagon}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Diamond wipe to Strong Bad and the wagon walking past Bubs's Concession Stand.}''&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to Strong Bad pulling the wagon uphill.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, or maybe a montage of me falling in love with the wagon full of pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Heart wipe to Strong Bad in a boat with the wagon.  They are both holding glasses of wine (or some sort of juice).}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{singing}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let's make this moment be the symbol of our lives&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon listening to a Taranchula LP on headphones.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to a front door view of The Cheat and the wagon, both sporting business-class fedoras.}''&lt;br /&gt;
and The Cheat being down on their luck door to door salesmen.&lt;br /&gt;

You're gonna mess around showdown&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*In filmic terms, scholars David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson define a montage sequence as &amp;quot;a segment of film which summarizes a topic or compresses a passage of time into brief symbolic or typical images.&amp;quot;  Also, montage sequences generally represent a longer passage of time than the also-typical &amp;quot;dissolve&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;fade&amp;quot; techniques between shots.&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*This is an email [[Forum:1226#34044|that was sent in by an HRWiki member]]. Congratulations [[User:porplemontage|porplemontage]]!&lt;br /&gt;
*In the original version of this e-mail, the background was static while Strong Bad and the wagon were spinning around.  It has since been fixed to blurred trees.&lt;br /&gt;
*At the current email rate (about one email in a little over two weeks), The Paper will be around until late February 2007. &lt;br /&gt;
*This email introduces an updated, more symmetrical version of the gray &amp;quot;horns&amp;quot; on Strong Bad's mask.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Champeenship fight is the first time we ever see Homestar wearing pants outside of Halloween 'toons (though he almost put on a pair in [[monument]]).&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the last proper [[Compy 386]] email before the disaster in [[virus]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar gets less money for a shirt than he gets for a half-eaten breakfast burrito in [[HR:auction.html|&amp;quot;Some Type of Online Auction&amp;quot;]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad probably changed Steve's name to Watered Down to prevent another &amp;quot;[[Eh! Steve]]&amp;quot; crack, like he did in [[kids' book]] and [[different town]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The scoreboard in the gym has the word &amp;quot;TIMES&amp;quot; written under the timer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*As The Cheat keeps getting doors slammed in his face as a salesman, the last place he visits with the blue wall and white door, the door frame ends before the bottom of the toon's frame, and the right end of the door ends before the right of the frame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*Between The Wagon's picture and The Paper's picture, there's a split-second sound clip that sounds like the beginning of &amp;quot;It's&amp;quot; from the Champeenchip montage, and the easter egg at the end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The scene with Strong Bad and the Wagon Fulla Pancakes sitting in the canoe is reminiscent of [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]], where Strong Bad and Coach Z fish in the exact same spot. This is probably prompted by the [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]] DVD Commentary, in which [[The Brothers Chaps]] decide to reuse the lake, and which was presumably recorded before this email came out. In doing so, TBC also reused [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], the ketchup and fries from [[funny]], the house from [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], and [[The Movie Theatre]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Strong Bad sings when he falls in love with the wagon is reminiscent of the style of [[The Kinda Long Haired Band]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Taranchula]] album cover is the same one from the liner notes of [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], on which their song [[Moving Very Slowly]] appears. The name &amp;quot;Taranchula&amp;quot; also appears in the e-mail [[band names]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Besides the [[The Cheat's Smoking Challenge|smoking game]] and [[big white face]], this is the first actual cartoon in which we see The Cheat smoking. Strong Bad originally acknowledged The Cheat's nicotine habit in [[Where's The Cheat?]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The sparkling water seen while Strong Bad is running on the horizon seems to be the same from [[Main Page 3]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The lyric &amp;quot;Lifting weights and feeling all right&amp;quot;, from the song played during the training montage, may be a reference to [[dangeresque 3]]'s &amp;quot;Riding in a Corvette and feeling all right&amp;quot; lyric.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;The #1&amp;quot; T-Shirt is loosely referenced by Strong Sad in the commentary of [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD|In Search Of The Yello Dello]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Though the shirt Strong Sad refers to says &amp;quot;''I'm'' #1&amp;quot; according to him, as opposed to &amp;quot;''The'' #1.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad has a problem identifying things that rhyme with &amp;quot;agon&amp;quot; in song. In this email, he mistakes a wagon for a girl, and in [[dragon]] he mistakes a dragon for a man, or maybe a dragon man. He catches the mistake both times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Homestar is singing in the Easter egg (&amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot;) comes from the 1984 classic ''[[Wikipedia:The_Karate_Kid|The Karate Kid]]''.  Homestar's headband, bearing the design of an old Japanese flag, is also a reference to this film, and has appeared before in both [[pom pom]] and [[Theme Song Video]].&lt;br /&gt;
**There is actually a song called &amp;quot;Training Montage&amp;quot; from Rocky IV by Vince DiCola.&lt;br /&gt;
**The scene during which &amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot; plays in ''The Karate Kid'' is another well-known martial arts training montage.&lt;br /&gt;
*Much of the wagon's training sequence (especially the wagon &amp;quot;running&amp;quot; up the stairs)  is a parody of the training sequence from the immortal boxing epic, ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''. It could also be seen as an homage to the Matthew Modine classic ''Vision Quest'' in which the steps of a stadium are used during the workout routine. &lt;br /&gt;
*The Strong Bad easter egg is a take on the popular NES game ''[[Wikipedia:Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!|Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!]]'', in which halfway through the game players saw a similar sequence.&lt;br /&gt;
**The ''Punch-Out!!'' sequence itself was a clear reference to the training sequence in ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''.&lt;br /&gt;
*There actually is a system call in the Unix operating system called &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;creat&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;. It creat(e)s a new file.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;some guy from a zoo&amp;quot; line by Strong Bad during the &amp;quot;Late-Night Talk Show&amp;quot;-style intro is most likely a reference to how such shows often resort to the gimmick of having zoo workers appear on the show, accompanied by their animal partners, whose mischievous antics can often get a cheap laugh from the audience.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Cheat not being able to sell any toner is reminiscent of the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Salesman (film)|Salesman]]'', where traveling salesmen have varying rates of success selling Bibles.  The poorest-selling Bible seller of the group winds up losing his job.&lt;br /&gt;
*The line about Strong Bad's show being canceled before the commercial break may be a reference to ''[[Wikipedia:Turn-On|Turn-On]]'', which was cancelled 10 minutes into its pilot episode.&lt;br /&gt;
*The End Credits Photo Montage song is reminiscient of the ''[[Wikipedia:Queen (band)|Queen]]'' song &amp;quot;Headlong.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*''[[Wikipedia:Animal Planet|Animal Planet]]'' is a TV network featuring programs that talk about all kinds of animals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fast Forward===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Wagon Fulla Pancakes really ''does'' do some spots for a used car dealership, as it shows up in a commercial for [[Senor Cardgage]]'s in [[Senorial Day]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad and his pink suit from the Easter egg show up again in [[rock opera]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar's &amp;quot;weekend&amp;quot; song plays at [[The King of Town]]'s party of [[boring (really)]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In the e-mail [[best thing]], [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Limozeen:_%22but_they%27re_in_space%21%22|Limozeen: &amp;quot;But They're in Space!&amp;quot;] was canceled before the commercial just like Strong Bad's Animal Planet show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== DVD Version ==&lt;br /&gt;
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Commentary Transcript ===&lt;br /&gt;
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]], [[Marzipan]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Listen... ''{Strong Bad says, &amp;quot;actress Marzipan&amp;quot; in the background.}'' And we've got Marzipan right here with us!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously, indecipherable}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He called you an actress. Isn't that nice?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Seems like usually he calls you something worse than that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Matt and Mike both laugh.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You're doing a good job acting right now, saying &amp;quot;Yeah&amp;quot; all the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, thank you. A new word.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' So, what are we here for, today?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We're doing the commentary for the &amp;quot;montage&amp;quot; email.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We're here in this tiny, glass-enclosed booth, recording some commentary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It is getting smelly in here, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It is. Mike and I have been in here all day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It smells like Fritos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Have you ever seen this email before?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I... haven't.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, he's got a wagon fulla pancakes, isn't that something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Those are not real pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' No? What are they?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I dunno, I think they're made out of plaster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Look, Mike, there's the lake that did appear later as per your, uh, prophecy on the old DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Oh, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Your comments of the&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{indecipherable}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, that we were going to use it later and&amp;amp;mdash; and we did, just a few weeks after that I think.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It really is starting to smell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Let's comment more on the&amp;amp;mdash; on the email. Is that&amp;amp;mdash; that was completely new, that&amp;amp;mdash; I mean it looks kind of like the one from &amp;amp;mdash; can't say &amp;quot;job&amp;quot; &amp;amp;mdash; doesn't it? But that theater&amp;amp;mdash;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It's been modified for the theater, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Um, we should head back there someday, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' And maybe we will.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' For a movie.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, there's your friend The Cheat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Look, the pancakes are wearing a hat, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I see.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And holding a briefcase somehow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And now they're enjoying a highball.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that The Cheat smoked!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He's got a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{whispering}'' There's your boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar had that&amp;amp;mdash; that's ''my'' shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' That's yours? Uh oh, 'cause he sells it later on in this email, so&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That was mine! I was wondering what happened to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He got a good deal for it, at least.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' What'd he get?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh, I'm not sure. Probably, like, 17 dollars.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I'll tell him he needs to split the proceeds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' He should. Sounds like it should ''all'' go to you; it was ''your'' shirt. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' A nice sunset.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pause}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Ohhh, Homestar looks like Daniel LaRusso. His Karate's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' &amp;quot;You think you can rely on that crane crap?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' He's actually trained in Tae Kwon Do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Really? Homestar is?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Wow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That's probably why he didn't do well with the Karate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughing}'' Oh ho! He learned the wrong martial art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' What do you think of this, um, end of the&amp;amp;mdash; end of the movie photo montage?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think it's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' See, look. Oh! He&amp;amp;mdash; no, sorry, I lied. He got it for three bucks. Not 17.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You got a buck-fifty comin' to ya.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I&amp;amp;mdash; Animal Planet's my favorite program.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Hey, isn't &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; spelled wrong there?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Was it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I think &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; only has one L. Let's change that before we put out this DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We can&amp;amp;mdash; ''{Pause}'' Oh, it's not over yet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, it's not, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You might think it's over, but it's not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Say something!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Now it's over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fun Facts===&lt;br /&gt;
*Daniel LaRusso is the name of the main character from ''The Karate Kid''.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Cancelled&amp;quot; appears on both the website and DVD. Though both are correct ways of spelling, &amp;quot;canceled&amp;quot; is generally a more American way of spelling it.&lt;br /&gt;
*Unlike her prior DVD commentary appearances in emails 1-100, Marzipan has largely dropped the premise that homestarrunner.com is a show and not &amp;quot;real&amp;quot; life.&lt;br /&gt;

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' ''{in a high-pitched, mocking voice}'' Oooohhh! Why don't you creat an alternate reality where you don't have to spell correctly and I talk like this.  And your name is Watered Down! ''{Strong Bad clears the screen and continues typing in normal voice.}'' A montage, eh Watered Down? Like, about whatever? Okay. I'll make a montage about...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut to an empty field}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me. ''{Strong Bad appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And a wagon. ''{a wagon appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Full of pancakes. ''{pancakes appear in the wagon}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Let's make this moment be the symbol of our lives&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon listening to a Taranchula LP on headphones.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon, under the stars. Strong Bad points to some shooting stars in the distance.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

upgraded to an inkjet printer.&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*In filmic terms, scholars David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson define a montage sequence as &amp;quot;a segment of film which summarizes a topic or compresses a passage of time into brief symbolic or typical images.&amp;quot;  Also, montage sequences generally represent a longer passage of time than the also-typical &amp;quot;dissolve&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;fade&amp;quot; techniques between shots.&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*This is an email [[Forum:1226#34044|that was sent in by an HRWiki member]]. Congratulations [[User:porplemontage|porplemontage]]!&lt;br /&gt;
*In the original version of this e-mail, the background was static while Strong Bad and the wagon were spinning around.  It has since been fixed to blurred trees.&lt;br /&gt;
*At the current email rate (about one email in a little over two weeks), The Paper will be around until late February 2007. &lt;br /&gt;
*This email introduces an updated, more symmetrical version of the gray &amp;quot;horns&amp;quot; on Strong Bad's mask.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Champeenship fight is the first time we ever see Homestar wearing pants outside of Halloween 'toons (though he almost put on a pair in [[monument]]).&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the last proper [[Compy 386]] email before the disaster in [[virus]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar gets less money for a shirt than he gets for a half-eaten breakfast burrito in [[HR:auction.html|&amp;quot;Some Type of Online Auction&amp;quot;]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad probably changed Steve's name to Watered Down to prevent another &amp;quot;[[Eh! Steve]]&amp;quot; crack, like he did in [[kids' book]] and [[different town]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The scoreboard in the gym has the word &amp;quot;TIMES&amp;quot; written under the timer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*As The Cheat keeps getting doors slammed in his face as a salesman, the last place he visits with the blue wall and white door, the door frame ends before the bottom of the toon's frame, and the right end of the door ends before the right of the frame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*Between The Wagon's picture and The Paper's picture, there's a split-second sound clip that sounds like the beginning of &amp;quot;It's&amp;quot; from the Champeenchip montage, and the easter egg at the end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The scene with Strong Bad and the Wagon Fulla Pancakes sitting in the canoe is reminiscent of [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]], where Strong Bad and Coach Z fish in the exact same spot. This is probably prompted by the [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]] DVD Commentary, in which [[The Brothers Chaps]] decide to reuse the lake, and which was presumably recorded before this email came out. In doing so, TBC also reused [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], the ketchup and fries from [[funny]], the house from [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], and [[The Movie Theatre]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Strong Bad sings when he falls in love with the wagon is reminiscent of the style of [[The Kinda Long Haired Band]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Taranchula]] album cover is the same one from the liner notes of [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], on which their song [[Moving Very Slowly]] appears. The name &amp;quot;Taranchula&amp;quot; also appears in the e-mail [[band names]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Besides the [[The Cheat's Smoking Challenge|smoking game]] and [[big white face]], this is the first actual cartoon in which we see The Cheat smoking. Strong Bad originally acknowledged The Cheat's nicotine habit in [[Where's The Cheat?]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The sparkling water seen while Strong Bad is running on the horizon seems to be the same from [[Main Page 3]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The lyric &amp;quot;Lifting weights and feeling all right&amp;quot;, from the song played during the training montage, may be a reference to [[dangeresque 3]]'s &amp;quot;Riding in a Corvette and feeling all right&amp;quot; lyric.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;The #1&amp;quot; T-Shirt is loosely referenced by Strong Sad in the commentary of [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD|In Search Of The Yello Dello]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Though the shirt Strong Sad refers to says &amp;quot;''I'm'' #1&amp;quot; according to him, as opposed to &amp;quot;''The'' #1.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad has a problem identifying things that rhyme with &amp;quot;agon&amp;quot; in song. In this email, he mistakes a wagon for a girl, and in [[dragon]] he mistakes a dragon for a man, or maybe a dragon man. He catches the mistake both times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Homestar is singing in the Easter egg (&amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot;) comes from the 1984 classic ''[[Wikipedia:The_Karate_Kid|The Karate Kid]]''.  Homestar's headband, bearing the design of an old Japanese flag, is also a reference to this film, and has appeared before in both [[pom pom]] and [[Theme Song Video]].&lt;br /&gt;
**There is actually a song called &amp;quot;Training Montage&amp;quot; from Rocky IV by Vince DiCola.&lt;br /&gt;
**The scene during which &amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot; plays in ''The Karate Kid'' is another well-known martial arts training montage.&lt;br /&gt;
*Much of the wagon's training sequence (especially the wagon &amp;quot;running&amp;quot; up the stairs)  is a parody of the training sequence from the immortal boxing epic, ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''. It could also be seen as an homage to the Matthew Modine classic ''Vision Quest'' in which the steps of a stadium are used during the workout routine. &lt;br /&gt;
*The Strong Bad easter egg is a take on the popular NES game ''[[Wikipedia:Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!|Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!]]'', in which halfway through the game players saw a similar sequence.&lt;br /&gt;
**The ''Punch-Out!!'' sequence itself was a clear reference to the training sequence in ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''.&lt;br /&gt;
*There actually is a system call in the Unix operating system called &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;creat&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;. It creat(e)s a new file.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;some guy from a zoo&amp;quot; line by Strong Bad during the &amp;quot;Late-Night Talk Show&amp;quot;-style intro is most likely a reference to how such shows often resort to the gimmick of having zoo workers appear on the show, accompanied by their animal partners, whose mischievous antics can often get a cheap laugh from the audience.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Cheat not being able to sell any toner is reminiscent of the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Salesman (film)|Salesman]]'', where traveling salesmen have varying rates of success selling Bibles.  The poorest-selling Bible seller of the group winds up losing his job.&lt;br /&gt;
*The line about Strong Bad's show being canceled before the commercial break may be a reference to ''[[Wikipedia:Turn-On|Turn-On]]'', which was cancelled 10 minutes into its pilot episode.&lt;br /&gt;
*The End Credits Photo Montage song is reminiscient of the ''[[Wikipedia:Queen (band)|Queen]]'' song &amp;quot;Headlong.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*''[[Wikipedia:Animal Planet|Animal Planet]]'' is a TV network featuring programs that talk about all kinds of animals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fast Forward===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Wagon Fulla Pancakes really ''does'' do some spots for a used car dealership, as it shows up in a commercial for [[Senor Cardgage]]'s in [[Senorial Day]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad and his pink suit from the Easter egg show up again in [[rock opera]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar's &amp;quot;weekend&amp;quot; song plays at [[The King of Town]]'s party of [[boring (really)]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In the e-mail [[best thing]], [[Limozeen: &amp;quot;But They're in Space!&amp;quot;]] was canceled before the commercial just like Strong Bad's Animal Planet show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== DVD Version ==&lt;br /&gt;
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.&lt;br /&gt;

'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;

'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Matt and Mike both laugh.}''&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, thank you. A new word.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' So, what are we here for, today?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We're doing the commentary for the &amp;quot;montage&amp;quot; email.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We're here in this tiny, glass-enclosed booth, recording some commentary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It is getting smelly in here, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It is. Mike and I have been in here all day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It smells like Fritos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Have you ever seen this email before?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I... haven't.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, he's got a wagon fulla pancakes, isn't that something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Those are not real pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' No? What are they?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I dunno, I think they're made out of plaster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Look, Mike, there's the lake that did appear later as per your, uh, prophecy on the old DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Oh, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Your comments of the&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{indecipherable}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, that we were going to use it later and&amp;amp;mdash; and we did, just a few weeks after that I think.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It really is starting to smell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Let's comment more on the&amp;amp;mdash; on the email. Is that&amp;amp;mdash; that was completely new, that&amp;amp;mdash; I mean it looks kind of like the one from &amp;amp;mdash; can't say &amp;quot;job&amp;quot; &amp;amp;mdash; doesn't it? But that theater&amp;amp;mdash;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It's been modified for the theater, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Um, we should head back there someday, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' And maybe we will.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' For a movie.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, there's your friend The Cheat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Look, the pancakes are wearing a hat, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I see.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And holding a briefcase somehow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And now they're enjoying a highball.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that The Cheat smoked!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He's got a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{whispering}'' There's your boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar had that&amp;amp;mdash; that's ''my'' shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' That's yours? Uh oh, 'cause he sells it later on in this email, so&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That was mine! I was wondering what happened to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He got a good deal for it, at least.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' What'd he get?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh, I'm not sure. Probably, like, 17 dollars.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I'll tell him he needs to split the proceeds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' He should. Sounds like it should ''all'' go to you; it was ''your'' shirt. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' A nice sunset.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pause}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Ohhh, Homestar looks like Daniel LaRusso. His Karate's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' &amp;quot;You think you can rely on that crane crap?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' He's actually trained in Tae Kwon Do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Really? Homestar is?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Wow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That's probably why he didn't do well with the Karate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughing}'' Oh ho! He learned the wrong martial art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' What do you think of this, um, end of the&amp;amp;mdash; end of the movie photo montage?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think it's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' See, look. Oh! He&amp;amp;mdash; no, sorry, I lied. He got it for three bucks. Not 17.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You got a buck-fifty comin' to ya.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I&amp;amp;mdash; Animal Planet's my favorite program.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Hey, isn't &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; spelled wrong there?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Was it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I think &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; only has one L. Let's change that before we put out this DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We can&amp;amp;mdash; ''{Pause}'' Oh, it's not over yet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, it's not, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You might think it's over, but it's not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Say something!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Now it's over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fun Facts===&lt;br /&gt;
*Daniel LaRusso is the name of the main character from ''The Karate Kid''.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Cancelled&amp;quot; appears on both the website and DVD. Though both are correct ways of spelling, &amp;quot;canceled&amp;quot; is generally a more American way of spelling it.&lt;br /&gt;
*Unlike her prior DVD commentary appearances in emails 1-100, Marzipan has largely dropped the premise that homestarrunner.com is a show and not &amp;quot;real&amp;quot; life.&lt;br /&gt;

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{announcing}'' Tonight on Strong Bad Email: Comedian Coach Z, actress Marzipan, and some guy from a zoo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{reading}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;compy email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Dear Strong Bad,&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Why don't you creat a montage?&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Steve&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Surf City, NJ&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad pronounces &amp;quot;creat&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;cree-at&amp;quot; and reads NJ as &amp;quot;No Job&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' ''{in a high-pitched, mocking voice}'' Oooohhh! Why don't you creat an alternate reality where you don't have to spell correctly and I talk like this.  And your name is Watered Down! ''{Strong Bad clears the screen and continues typing in normal voice.}'' A montage, eh Watered Down? Like, about whatever? Okay. I'll make a montage about...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut to an empty field}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me. ''{Strong Bad appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And a wagon. ''{a wagon appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Full of pancakes. ''{pancakes appear in the wagon}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Diamond wipe to Strong Bad and the wagon walking past Bubs's Concession Stand.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Wipe to a field where Strong Bad kicks the wagon calmly.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad pulling the wagon uphill.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, or maybe a montage of me falling in love with the wagon full of pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Heart wipe to Strong Bad in a boat with the wagon.  They are both holding glasses of wine (or some sort of juice).}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{singing}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let's make this moment be the symbol of our lives&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon listening to a Taranchula LP on headphones.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
We'll pawn your dad's computer &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon, under the stars. Strong Bad points to some shooting stars in the distance.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
and we'll sail to paradise&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon spinning around, holding &amp;quot;hands&amp;quot;.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon at the movies. Strong Bad drops some popcorn.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You're a girl... or maybe a wagon... &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon at a fast food place.  Strong Bad puts ketchup on some fries while laughing and smiling.}&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
filled up with pancakes&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad frolicking across a field as the wagon follows.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Or maybe a montage of the wagon full of pancakes &lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a front door view of The Cheat and the wagon, both sporting business-class fedoras.}''&lt;br /&gt;
and The Cheat being down on their luck door to door salesmen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to The Cheat lying in the wagon as the wagon rolls past.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Several doors slam on The Cheat at different angles.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to the wagon sitting in an arm chair while the Cheat lies on the floor in front, smoking.}''&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hi-yah! Hi-yah! ''{Homestar kicks.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The wagon's handle falls on Homestar, just like it did while training with the barbell, and Homestar falls down.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;The Paper stuck around until&lt;br /&gt;

upgraded to an inkjet printer.&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*In filmic terms, scholars David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson define a montage sequence as &amp;quot;a segment of film which summarizes a topic or compresses a passage of time into brief symbolic or typical images.&amp;quot;  Also, montage sequences generally represent a longer passage of time than the also-typical &amp;quot;dissolve&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;fade&amp;quot; techniques between shots.&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*This is an email [[Forum:1226#34044|that was sent in by an HRWiki member]]. Congratulations [[User:porplemontage|porplemontage]]!&lt;br /&gt;
*In the original version of this e-mail, the background was static while Strong Bad and the wagon were spinning around.  It has since been fixed to blurred trees.&lt;br /&gt;
*At the current email rate (about one email in a little over two weeks), The Paper will be around until late February 2007. &lt;br /&gt;
*This email introduces an updated, more symmetrical version of the gray &amp;quot;horns&amp;quot; on Strong Bad's mask.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Champeenship fight is the first time we ever see Homestar wearing pants outside of Halloween 'toons (though he almost put on a pair in [[monument]]).&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the last proper [[Compy 386]] email before the disaster in [[virus]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar gets less money for a shirt than he gets for a half-eaten breakfast burrito in [[HR:auction.html|&amp;quot;Some Type of Online Auction&amp;quot;]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad probably changed Steve's name to Watered Down to prevent another &amp;quot;[[Eh! Steve]]&amp;quot; crack, like he did in [[kids' book]] and [[different town]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The scoreboard in the gym has the word &amp;quot;TIMES&amp;quot; written under the timer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*As The Cheat keeps getting doors slammed in his face as a salesman, the last place he visits with the blue wall and white door, the door frame ends before the bottom of the toon's frame, and the right end of the door ends before the right of the frame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*Between The Wagon's picture and The Paper's picture, there's a split-second sound clip that sounds like the beginning of &amp;quot;It's&amp;quot; from the Champeenchip montage, and the easter egg at the end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The scene with Strong Bad and the Wagon Fulla Pancakes sitting in the canoe is reminiscent of [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]], where Strong Bad and Coach Z fish in the exact same spot. This is probably prompted by the [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]] DVD Commentary, in which [[The Brothers Chaps]] decide to reuse the lake, and which was presumably recorded before this email came out. In doing so, TBC also reused [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], the ketchup and fries from [[funny]], the house from [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], and [[The Movie Theatre]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Strong Bad sings when he falls in love with the wagon is reminiscent of the style of [[The Kinda Long Haired Band]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Taranchula]] album cover is the same one from the liner notes of [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], on which their song [[Moving Very Slowly]] appears. The name &amp;quot;Taranchula&amp;quot; also appears in the e-mail [[band names]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Besides the [[The Cheat's Smoking Challenge|smoking game]] and [[big white face]], this is the first actual cartoon in which we see The Cheat smoking. Strong Bad originally acknowledged The Cheat's nicotine habit in [[Where's The Cheat?]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The sparkling water seen while Strong Bad is running on the horizon seems to be the same from [[Main Page 3]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The lyric &amp;quot;Lifting weights and feeling all right&amp;quot;, from the song played during the training montage, may be a reference to [[dangeresque 3]]'s &amp;quot;Riding in a Corvette and feeling all right&amp;quot; lyric.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;The #1&amp;quot; T-Shirt is loosely referenced by Strong Sad in the commentary of [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD|In Search Of The Yello Dello]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Though the shirt Strong Sad refers to says &amp;quot;''I'm'' #1&amp;quot; according to him, as opposed to &amp;quot;''The'' #1.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad has a problem identifying things that rhyme with &amp;quot;agon&amp;quot; in song. In this email, he mistakes a wagon for a girl, and in [[dragon]] he mistakes a dragon for a man, or maybe a dragon man. He catches the mistake both times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Homestar is singing in the Easter egg (&amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot;) comes from the 1984 classic ''[[Wikipedia:The_Karate_Kid|The Karate Kid]]''.  Homestar's headband, bearing the design of an old Japanese flag, is also a reference to this film, and has appeared before in both [[pom pom]] and [[Theme Song Video]].&lt;br /&gt;
**There is actually a song called &amp;quot;Training Montage&amp;quot; from Rocky IV by Vince DiCola.&lt;br /&gt;
**The scene during which &amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot; plays in ''The Karate Kid'' is another well-known martial arts training montage.&lt;br /&gt;
*Much of the wagon's training sequence (especially the wagon &amp;quot;running&amp;quot; up the stairs)  is a parody of the training sequence from the immortal boxing epic, ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''. It could also be seen as an homage to the Matthew Modine classic ''Vision Quest'' in which the steps of a stadium are used during the workout routine. &lt;br /&gt;
*The Strong Bad easter egg is a take on the popular NES game ''[[Wikipedia:Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!|Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!]]'', in which halfway through the game players saw a similar sequence.&lt;br /&gt;
**The ''Punch-Out!!'' sequence itself was a clear reference to the training sequence in ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''.&lt;br /&gt;
*There actually is a system call in the Unix operating system called &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;creat&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;. It creat(e)s a new file.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;some guy from a zoo&amp;quot; line by Strong Bad during the &amp;quot;Late-Night Talk Show&amp;quot;-style intro is most likely a reference to how such shows often resort to the gimmick of having zoo workers appear on the show, accompanied by their animal partners, whose mischievous antics can often get a cheap laugh from the audience.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Cheat not being able to sell any toner is reminiscent of the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Salesman (film)|Salesman]]'', where traveling salesmen have varying rates of success selling Bibles.  The poorest-selling Bible seller of the group winds up losing his job.&lt;br /&gt;
*The line about Strong Bad's show being canceled before the commercial break may be a reference to ''[[Wikipedia:Turn-On|Turn-On]]'', which was cancelled 10 minutes into its pilot episode.&lt;br /&gt;
*The End Credits Photo Montage song is reminiscient of the ''[[Wikipedia:Queen (band)|Queen]]'' song &amp;quot;Headlong.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*''[[Wikipedia:Animal Planet|Animal Planet]]'' is a TV network featuring programs that talk about all kinds of animals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fast Forward===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Wagon Fulla Pancakes really ''does'' do some spots for a used car dealership, as it shows up in a commercial for [[Senor Cardgage]]'s in [[Senorial Day]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad and his pink suit from the Easter egg show up again in [[rock opera]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar's &amp;quot;weekend&amp;quot; song plays at [[The King of Town]]'s party of [[boring (really)]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In the e-mail [[best thing]], &amp;quot;[[Limozeen, But They're in Space]]!&amp;quot; was canceled before the commercial just like Strong Bad's Animal Planet show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== DVD Version ==&lt;br /&gt;
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.&lt;br /&gt;

'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Matt and Mike both laugh.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You're doing a good job acting right now, saying &amp;quot;Yeah&amp;quot; all the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, thank you. A new word.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' So, what are we here for, today?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We're doing the commentary for the &amp;quot;montage&amp;quot; email.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We're here in this tiny, glass-enclosed booth, recording some commentary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It is getting smelly in here, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It is. Mike and I have been in here all day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It smells like Fritos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Have you ever seen this email before?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I... haven't.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, he's got a wagon fulla pancakes, isn't that something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Those are not real pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' No? What are they?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I dunno, I think they're made out of plaster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Look, Mike, there's the lake that did appear later as per your, uh, prophecy on the old DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Oh, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Your comments of the&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{indecipherable}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, that we were going to use it later and&amp;amp;mdash; and we did, just a few weeks after that I think.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It really is starting to smell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Let's comment more on the&amp;amp;mdash; on the email. Is that&amp;amp;mdash; that was completely new, that&amp;amp;mdash; I mean it looks kind of like the one from &amp;amp;mdash; can't say &amp;quot;job&amp;quot; &amp;amp;mdash; doesn't it? But that theater&amp;amp;mdash;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It's been modified for the theater, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Um, we should head back there someday, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' And maybe we will.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' For a movie.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, there's your friend The Cheat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Look, the pancakes are wearing a hat, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I see.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And holding a briefcase somehow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And now they're enjoying a highball.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that The Cheat smoked!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He's got a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{whispering}'' There's your boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar had that&amp;amp;mdash; that's ''my'' shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' That's yours? Uh oh, 'cause he sells it later on in this email, so&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That was mine! I was wondering what happened to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He got a good deal for it, at least.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' What'd he get?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh, I'm not sure. Probably, like, 17 dollars.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I'll tell him he needs to split the proceeds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' He should. Sounds like it should ''all'' go to you; it was ''your'' shirt. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' A nice sunset.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pause}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Ohhh, Homestar looks like Daniel LaRusso. His Karate's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' &amp;quot;You think you can rely on that crane crap?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' He's actually trained in Tae Kwon Do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Really? Homestar is?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Wow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That's probably why he didn't do well with the Karate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughing}'' Oh ho! He learned the wrong martial art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' What do you think of this, um, end of the&amp;amp;mdash; end of the movie photo montage?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think it's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' See, look. Oh! He&amp;amp;mdash; no, sorry, I lied. He got it for three bucks. Not 17.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You got a buck-fifty comin' to ya.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I&amp;amp;mdash; Animal Planet's my favorite program.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Hey, isn't &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; spelled wrong there?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Was it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I think &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; only has one L. Let's change that before we put out this DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We can&amp;amp;mdash; ''{Pause}'' Oh, it's not over yet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, it's not, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You might think it's over, but it's not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Say something!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Now it's over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fun Facts===&lt;br /&gt;
*Daniel LaRusso is the name of the main character from ''The Karate Kid''.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Cancelled&amp;quot; appears on both the website and DVD. Though both are correct ways of spelling, &amp;quot;canceled&amp;quot; is generally a more American way of spelling it.&lt;br /&gt;
*Unlike her prior DVD commentary appearances in emails 1-100, Marzipan has largely dropped the premise that homestarrunner.com is a show and not &amp;quot;real&amp;quot; life.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
''{reading}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;compy email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Dear Strong Bad,&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Why don't you creat a montage?&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Steve&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Surf City, NJ&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad pronounces &amp;quot;creat&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;cree-at&amp;quot; and reads NJ as &amp;quot;No Job&amp;quot;}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' ''{in a high-pitched, mocking voice}'' Oooohhh! Why don't you creat an alternate reality where you don't have to spell correctly and I talk like this.  And your name is Watered Down! ''{Strong Bad clears the screen and continues typing in normal voice.}'' A montage, eh Watered Down? Like, about whatever? Okay. I'll make a montage about...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{cut to an empty field}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me. ''{Strong Bad appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And a wagon. ''{a wagon appears}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Full of pancakes. ''{pancakes appear in the wagon}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Diamond wipe to Strong Bad and the wagon walking past Bubs's Concession Stand.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Wipe to a field where Strong Bad kicks the wagon calmly.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad pulling the wagon uphill.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, or maybe a montage of me falling in love with the wagon full of pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Heart wipe to Strong Bad in a boat with the wagon.  They are both holding glasses of wine (or some sort of juice).}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{singing}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let's make this moment be the symbol of our lives&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon listening to a Taranchula LP on headphones.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to Strong Bad and the wagon, under the stars. Strong Bad points to some shooting stars in the distance.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

''{Cut to Strong Bad frolicking across a field as the wagon follows.}''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Or maybe a montage of the wagon full of pancakes &lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a front door view of The Cheat and the wagon, both sporting business-class fedoras.}''&lt;br /&gt;
and The Cheat being down on their luck door to door salesmen.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

upgraded to an inkjet printer.&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
*In filmic terms, scholars David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson define a montage sequence as &amp;quot;a segment of film which summarizes a topic or compresses a passage of time into brief symbolic or typical images.&amp;quot;  Also, montage sequences generally represent a longer passage of time than the also-typical &amp;quot;dissolve&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;fade&amp;quot; techniques between shots.&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*This is an email [[Forum:1226#34044|that was sent in by an HRWiki member]]. Congratulations [[User:porplemontage|porplemontage]]!&lt;br /&gt;
*In the original version of this e-mail, the background was static while Strong Bad and the wagon were spinning around.  It has since been fixed to blurred trees.&lt;br /&gt;
*At the current email rate (about one email in a little over two weeks), The Paper will be around until late February 2007. &lt;br /&gt;
*This email introduces an updated, more symmetrical version of the gray &amp;quot;horns&amp;quot; on Strong Bad's mask.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Champeenship fight is the first time we ever see Homestar wearing pants outside of Halloween 'toons (though he almost put on a pair in [[monument]]).&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the last proper [[Compy 386]] email before the disaster in [[virus]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar gets less money for a shirt than he gets for a half-eaten breakfast burrito in [[HR:auction.html|&amp;quot;Some Type of Online Auction&amp;quot;]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad probably changed Steve's name to Watered Down to prevent another &amp;quot;[[Eh! Steve]]&amp;quot; crack, like he did in [[kids' book]] and [[different town]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The scoreboard in the gym has the word &amp;quot;TIMES&amp;quot; written under the timer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*As The Cheat keeps getting doors slammed in his face as a salesman, the last place he visits with the blue wall and white door, the door frame ends before the bottom of the toon's frame, and the right end of the door ends before the right of the frame.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
*Between The Wagon's picture and The Paper's picture, there's a split-second sound clip that sounds like the beginning of &amp;quot;It's&amp;quot; from the Champeenchip montage, and the easter egg at the end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The scene with Strong Bad and the Wagon Fulla Pancakes sitting in the canoe is reminiscent of [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]], where Strong Bad and Coach Z fish in the exact same spot. This is probably prompted by the [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]] DVD Commentary, in which [[The Brothers Chaps]] decide to reuse the lake, and which was presumably recorded before this email came out. In doing so, TBC also reused [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], the ketchup and fries from [[funny]], the house from [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], and [[The Movie Theatre]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Strong Bad sings when he falls in love with the wagon is reminiscent of the style of [[The Kinda Long Haired Band]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Taranchula]] album cover is the same one from the liner notes of [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]], on which their song [[Moving Very Slowly]] appears. The name &amp;quot;Taranchula&amp;quot; also appears in the e-mail [[band names]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Besides the [[The Cheat's Smoking Challenge|smoking game]] and [[big white face]], this is the first actual cartoon in which we see The Cheat smoking. Strong Bad originally acknowledged The Cheat's nicotine habit in [[Where's The Cheat?]]&lt;br /&gt;
*The sparkling water seen while Strong Bad is running on the horizon seems to be the same from [[Main Page 3]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The lyric &amp;quot;Lifting weights and feeling all right&amp;quot;, from the song played during the training montage, may be a reference to [[dangeresque 3]]'s &amp;quot;Riding in a Corvette and feeling all right&amp;quot; lyric.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;The #1&amp;quot; T-Shirt is loosely referenced by Strong Sad in the commentary of [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD|In Search Of The Yello Dello]].&lt;br /&gt;
**Though the shirt Strong Sad refers to says &amp;quot;''I'm'' #1&amp;quot; according to him, as opposed to &amp;quot;''The'' #1.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad has a problem identifying things that rhyme with &amp;quot;agon&amp;quot; in song. In this email, he mistakes a wagon for a girl, and in [[dragon]] he mistakes a dragon for a man, or maybe a dragon man. He catches the mistake both times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The song Homestar is singing in the Easter egg (&amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot;) comes from the 1984 classic ''[[Wikipedia:The_Karate_Kid|The Karate Kid]]''.  Homestar's headband, bearing the design of an old Japanese flag, is also a reference to this film, and has appeared before in both [[pom pom]] and [[Theme Song Video]].&lt;br /&gt;
**There is actually a song called &amp;quot;Training Montage&amp;quot; from Rocky IV by Vince DiCola.&lt;br /&gt;
**The scene during which &amp;quot;You're the Best&amp;quot; plays in ''The Karate Kid'' is another well-known martial arts training montage.&lt;br /&gt;
*Much of the wagon's training sequence (especially the wagon &amp;quot;running&amp;quot; up the stairs)  is a parody of the training sequence from the immortal boxing epic, ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''. It could also be seen as an homage to the Matthew Modine classic ''Vision Quest'' in which the steps of a stadium are used during the workout routine. &lt;br /&gt;
*The Strong Bad easter egg is a take on the popular NES game ''[[Wikipedia:Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!|Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!]]'', in which halfway through the game players saw a similar sequence.&lt;br /&gt;
**The ''Punch-Out!!'' sequence itself was a clear reference to the training sequence in ''[[Wikipedia:Rocky|Rocky]]''.&lt;br /&gt;
*There actually is a system call in the Unix operating system called &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;creat&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;. It creat(e)s a new file.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;some guy from a zoo&amp;quot; line by Strong Bad during the &amp;quot;Late-Night Talk Show&amp;quot;-style intro is most likely a reference to how such shows often resort to the gimmick of having zoo workers appear on the show, accompanied by their animal partners, whose mischievous antics can often get a cheap laugh from the audience.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Cheat not being able to sell any toner is reminiscent of the movie ''[[Wikipedia:Salesman (film)|Salesman]]'', where traveling salesmen have varying rates of success selling Bibles.  The poorest-selling Bible seller of the group winds up losing his job.&lt;br /&gt;
*The line about Strong Bad's show being canceled before the commercial break may be a reference to ''[[Wikipedia:Turn-On|Turn-On]]'', which was cancelled 10 minutes into its pilot episode.&lt;br /&gt;
*The End Credits Photo Montage song is reminiscient of the ''[[Wikipedia:Queen (band)|Queen]]'' song &amp;quot;Headlong.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
*''[[Wikipedia:Animal Planet|Animal Planet]]'' is a TV network featuring programs that talk about all kinds of animals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fast Forward===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Wagon Fulla Pancakes really ''does'' do some spots for a used car dealership, as it shows up in a commercial for [[Senor Cardgage]]'s in [[Senorial Day]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad and his pink suit from the Easter egg show up again in [[rock opera]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar's &amp;quot;weekend&amp;quot; song plays at [[The King of Town]]'s party of [[boring (really)]].&lt;br /&gt;
*In the e-mail [[best thing]], &amp;quot;[[Limozeen, But They're in Space!]]&amp;quot; was canceled before the commercial just like Strong Bad's Animal Planet show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== DVD Version ==&lt;br /&gt;
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Commentary Transcript ===&lt;br /&gt;
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]], [[Marzipan]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Listen... ''{Strong Bad says, &amp;quot;actress Marzipan&amp;quot; in the background.}'' And we've got Marzipan right here with us!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously, indecipherable}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He called you an actress. Isn't that nice?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Seems like usually he calls you something worse than that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Matt and Mike both laugh.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You're doing a good job acting right now, saying &amp;quot;Yeah&amp;quot; all the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, thank you. A new word.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' So, what are we here for, today?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We're doing the commentary for the &amp;quot;montage&amp;quot; email.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We're here in this tiny, glass-enclosed booth, recording some commentary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It is getting smelly in here, too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' It is. Mike and I have been in here all day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It smells like Fritos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Have you ever seen this email before?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I... haven't.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, he's got a wagon fulla pancakes, isn't that something?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Those are not real pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' No? What are they?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I dunno, I think they're made out of plaster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Look, Mike, there's the lake that did appear later as per your, uh, prophecy on the old DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Oh, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Your comments of the&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{indecipherable}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah, that we were going to use it later and&amp;amp;mdash; and we did, just a few weeks after that I think.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It really is starting to smell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Let's comment more on the&amp;amp;mdash; on the email. Is that&amp;amp;mdash; that was completely new, that&amp;amp;mdash; I mean it looks kind of like the one from &amp;amp;mdash; can't say &amp;quot;job&amp;quot; &amp;amp;mdash; doesn't it? But that theater&amp;amp;mdash;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' It's been modified for the theater, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Um, we should head back there someday, Mike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' And maybe we will.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' For a movie.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Look, there's your friend The Cheat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Look, the pancakes are wearing a hat, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I see.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And holding a briefcase somehow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' And now they're enjoying a highball.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that The Cheat smoked!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He's got a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I didn't know that&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{whispering}'' There's your boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar had that&amp;amp;mdash; that's ''my'' shirt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' That's yours? Uh oh, 'cause he sells it later on in this email, so&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That was mine! I was wondering what happened to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' He got a good deal for it, at least.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' What'd he get?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Uh, I'm not sure. Probably, like, 17 dollars.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I'll tell him he needs to split the proceeds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' He should. Sounds like it should ''all'' go to you; it was ''your'' shirt. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' A nice sunset.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' It's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pause}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Ohhh, Homestar looks like Daniel LaRusso. His Karate's a joke.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' &amp;quot;You think you can rely on that crane crap?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' He's actually trained in Tae Kwon Do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Really? Homestar is?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yeah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Wow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That's probably why he didn't do well with the Karate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' ''{laughing}'' Oh ho! He learned the wrong martial art.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' What do you think of this, um, end of the&amp;amp;mdash; end of the movie photo montage?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I think it's okay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' See, look. Oh! He&amp;amp;mdash; no, sorry, I lied. He got it for three bucks. Not 17.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You got a buck-fifty comin' to ya.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I&amp;amp;mdash; Animal Planet's my favorite program.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Hey, isn't &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; spelled wrong there?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Was it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' I think &amp;quot;cancelled&amp;quot; only has one L. Let's change that before we put out this DVD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' We can&amp;amp;mdash; ''{Pause}'' Oh, it's not over yet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Oh, it's not, Marzipan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' You might think it's over, but it's not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MATT:''' Say something!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MIKE:''' Now it's over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fun Facts===&lt;br /&gt;
*Daniel LaRusso is the name of the main character from ''The Karate Kid''.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Cancelled&amp;quot; appears on both the website and DVD. Though both are correct ways of spelling, &amp;quot;canceled&amp;quot; is generally a more American way of spelling it.&lt;br /&gt;
*Unlike her prior DVD commentary appearances in emails 1-100, Marzipan has largely dropped the premise that homestarrunner.com is a show and not &amp;quot;real&amp;quot; life.&lt;br /&gt;

'''Cheatcakes''' are a specialty food [[The Cheat]] originally invented for [[Strong Bad]] as a substitute for [[Grumblecakes]], which the masked wrestler had previously been swindled out of by a collaborative effort of Kevin Grumbles and [[Homestar Runner]]. Strong Bad did not appreciate the substitute, despite the efforts of The Cheat to add even more steam and sugar than the Grumblecakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Strong Bad eventually had a change of heart in the email &amp;quot;do over.&amp;quot;  In retrospect he wished he could have tried one, because they did look a-pretty good.  Because of that, obviously, Homestar came up with a cheap variation. Homestar, dressed as The Cheat, almost gave him a bag of &amp;quot;Moldy Bread, Guys&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

==Transcript==&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey everybody, it's a musical Strong Bad Email this week! ''{presses enter}'' ''{singing}'' Doo doo doo Dear, Dear Strong Bad, oh I was wondering&amp;amp;mdash;''{stops singing}'' I can't keep this up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;email&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;subject: portrait&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Dear Strong Bad-&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I was wondering if you ever wanted to have somebody&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
paint a portrait of &amp;amp;nbsp;your greatness.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
guess what, it's-&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Dylan Bragers (aka Coolio da Fabio)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Texas&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Guess what? Nobody calls you Coolio da Fabio (aka quit making up nicknames for yourself.) I'm just gonna call you Dealin' Burgers, which I assume doubles as an accurate job description.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Clears screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Moving onwardly, I suppose my greatness is worthy of portraiture. Perhaps one done by a Deutsch Master.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a portrait of Strong Bad holding a toy with a duck's head on the end.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' The kind that are always getting stolen or vandalized by art bandits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The Cheat appears from the top and paints a robotank with spraypaint and a stencil, along with the words &amp;quot;RAD, RAD ROBOTANK&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{not typing}'' Thanks little buddy; now it's worth something.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{makes noises like Strong Bad is welcome}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{resumes typing}'' Or what about one of those black and white ink portraits you see in all the rich-guy newspapers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a rich-guy newspaper. An image of Strong Bad holding a cell phone is on it.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Well apparently they're not rich enough to afford any color. Or even solid lines... Just a bunch of dots and dashes. I look like Morse Code. ''{imitates speaking as though in Morse Code}'' Dah dah dah dee dee dee... I-I a-am h-hold-i-ing a-a r-re-eal-ly o-old c-cell ph-phone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the Lappy. The screen has cleared.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Oops. No. Hey, I got it! A painting of such greatness demands only the finest materials. And what could be finer than black velvet in a cheap imitation wood frame? It would be showcased&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the velvet painting. It shows Strong Bad holding a skunk. A lamp with a moose on it can be seen to the left.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;in only the fanciest double-wide trailers. Oh, and look! I finally caught that skunk. I been chasing after that little scamp for&amp;amp;mdash;Whoa!&amp;amp;mdash; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The shot suddenly shifts to the right to reveal a poster of a unicorn. Another moose lamp is seen on the right.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' &amp;amp;mdash;Is that a blacklight poster of a unicorn riding a snowmobile?! Now ''that'' is some esteemed company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A [[Cold One|Cold One Ice]] flies at the lamp and shatters it.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Thanks for breaking my moose lamp.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Unfortunately, I don't know anybody with a useless Master of Fine Arts degree, so I might have to settle for something a bit more, how you say, made by Strong Mad or The Cheat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to The Cheat, who is noisily gnawing Strong Bad's face into a log.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Very... uh, slobbery, The Cheat. This isn't quite what I had in mind when you said &amp;quot;sculpture.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Music starts playing.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' You're really just... goin' to town there, aren't ya?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad stares at The Cheat working for a moment.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm gonna ''{motioning with his glove}'' leave you two alone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Bad backs away. Cut to Strong Mad's room. Strong Mad is sprinkling glitter over a macaroni picture. Strong Bad walks up.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, nice work, Chef Boyardee. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a close-up of the picture.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Like I couldn't have gone down to the kindergarten and hired a five-year-old to make me one of those.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the wide shot.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...Except that sounds pretty creepy and I'd probably go to jail.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG MAD:''' I'LL WAIT FOR YOU!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the Lappy. Strong Bad sits down.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Well, thanks to my no-talent minions, it looks like a self-portrait is the only way to go. And I will render it in nothing less than the classic style of the Trüe Mästers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a shot of Strong Bad, who has somehow fit his head into a wooden cutout of a muscular man holding a sword with a keyboard on it. The man has &amp;quot;SB&amp;quot; written on his stomach and is holding a falcon. His one visible leg wears a boot that looks vaguely similar to a [['Lectric Boots|'Lectric Boot]]. There are also two cans of paint nearby, labeled &amp;quot;Some Paint&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Some More Paint&amp;quot;. There is also a cutout of a mermaid at his feet with an empty space for a head. He paints it with a small brush.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah, at last: A self-portrait that accurately depicts who I am, where I'm from&amp;lt;!--this word sounds weird--&amp;gt;, and my passing interest in falconry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He tries to get out.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, oh. ''{keeps trying}'' How do I get outta this thing?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to the reverse angle. He can be seen hanging by his head.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' How did I get ''into'' this thing? ''{kicks his legs together a few times}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the front view. He holds up the duck-head toy from the first portrait.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{making the bird talk}'' Quack, quack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a close-up.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Why, Lord Quackingstick, how nice to see you. You don't happen to have a hacksaw in your pocket, do you? ''{making the bird talk}'' Quack, quack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the wide shot.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, too bad. ''{looking down at the mermaid}'' Well, what about you, Princess Shellbra?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He moves the bird-on-a-stick into the face hole for the mermaid.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{making the bird talk in a high, sultry voice}'' Quack, quack. ''{speaking normally}'' But of course. I&amp;lt;!--sic--&amp;gt; love to serenade you anytime with my ''{looks down to his right}'' mystical key-sword-tar. I mean it's not like I'm goin' anywhere... anytime soon.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar's [[SAAB Lighter|lighter]] in the key-sword-tar Easter egg is a [[Wikipedia:Saab|Saab]] lighter, as opposed to Strong Bad's [[BMW Lighter|BMW one]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The fours in The Cheat's ''4rt b4ndit'' shirt are another example of [[Wikipedia:Leet|Leetspeak]] in the toons.&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad mentions a [[Wikipedia:whammy bar|whammy bar]], or tremelo arm, while playing his key-sword-tar (a pun on the [[Wikipedia:Keytar|Keytar]]). However, only actual guitars have these.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*The second small line on the right newspaper paragraph repeats the word &amp;quot;the&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the Easter Egg, when Strong Bad is moving the cardboard cutout of the key-sword-tar around, the picture reverses direction.&lt;br /&gt;
*Because of the umlaut over the A, &amp;quot;Mästers&amp;quot; should be pronounced &amp;quot;May-sters&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*Homestar's line &amp;quot;Thanks for breaking my moose lamp&amp;quot; is a reference to [[caper]], where he thanked Strong Bad and The Cheat for breaking his [[Cow Lamp|cow lamp]].&lt;br /&gt;
*A Strong Badman comic appeared in connection with a &amp;quot;Deutschman&amp;quot; in [[haircut]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The velvet painting of Strong Bad holding the skunk was done by [[Leomard Sportsinterviews|Lem Sportsinterviews]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The gnawing pose for The Cheat was last used in [[personal favorites]]. In the [[personal favorites#Commentary Transcript|DVD commentary]], [[The Brothers Chaps]] mention wanting to use that pose again.&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad has a blacklight unicorn painting, as seen in the [[Strong Bad's Room Main Page]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The School Paste in Strong Mad's room was first seen in Strong Sad's room in the Email [[depressio]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The tune that Strong Bad uses to sing the opening lines of the e-mail is the same as the tune to the &amp;quot;Pardon Our Problems&amp;quot; sign at the end of [[Fall Float Parade]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Mulligatawny|Mulligatawny]] is a kind of soup.&lt;br /&gt;
*The Rad Rad Robotank is likely a double-reference to [[Wikipedia:Transformers Universes|Transformers]] (the head is that of [[Wikipedia:Optimus Prime|Optimus Prime]]), and to the [[Wikipedia:Newgrounds|Newgrounds.com logo]] (the overall pose is very similar).&lt;br /&gt;
**The fact that it appears as a stencil is possibly a jab at Newgrounds' tendency to encourage people to place their [http://www.newgrounds.com/stickers/ promotional stickers] everywhere.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Chef Boyardee|Chef Boyardee]] was an Italian chef who is famous for his canned food franchise.&lt;br /&gt;
*The black and white portrait of Strong Bad bears a strong resemblence to ones found in ''[[Wikipedia:The Wall Street Journal|The Wall Street Journal]]'', which is probably the &amp;quot;rich-guy newspaper&amp;quot; he was referring to.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Wikipedia:Lamaze|Lamaze]] is a relaxation technique designed to avoid the use of pain-killing drugs during childbirth.&lt;br /&gt;

== Transcript ==&lt;br /&gt;
''{A leaf appears with the words &amp;quot;The 4Tst Annual Fall Float Parade&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''ANNOUNCER:''' We now return to the firty-tirst annual fall float parade.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Coach Z and Marzipan wearing scarves and ear muffs. Marzipan is holding a mug of hot chocolate with marshmallows, and is clearly mad at Coach Z.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Ok den, welcome back. First please allow me to apologize to my co-host, here, for any innapprapriate comments I may have made while we was at commercial.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{nearly under her breath}'' That's two strikes, Coach Z.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Yes, yes, what fun!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{suddenly no longer angry}'' So, next up is good old Bubs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Yes, good old my favorite type o' guy who I'm just all the time hangin' around and doin' stuff with, Bubs!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to Bubs on a giant float with the words &amp;quot;Coach Z, you jerk&amp;quot; written on it. There is a banner hanging on the float that reads, &amp;quot;Happy Thanksgiving!&amp;quot;.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' ''{through a megaphone}'' Coach Z, you jerk!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{surprised}'' Oooh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Coach Z, you jerk!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Oh, I see then...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' Coach Z&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' That's very&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''BUBS:''' ''{with more emphasis than before}'' &amp;amp;mdash;you jerk!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' &amp;amp;mdash;overt. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a close-up of a giant balloon in the likeness of Pom Pom.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Oh, now here's somethin' that doesn't appear to be makin' fun of me, it's the Pam Pam b'lloon!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' That's &amp;quot;Pom Pom balloon&amp;quot; for those of you who don't speak Coach Z. Always a hit with the ladies, that Pom Pom.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a wide-shot with the Pom Pom balloon being led offscreen by Pom Pom. A pair of fez-wearing Homsars are coming in behind the balloon driving miniature red cars.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' And never a hit with anyone, it's Homsar! Oh, and there's another Homsar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMSARS:''' ''{both of them in unison}'' Let's sing a song of Pennzoil! {{ref|1}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- We are currently debating whether the word is &amp;quot;tinfoil&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Pennzoil&amp;quot; in Talk.  Please don't change this until a consensus has been reached. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{A new float enters the frame behind the two Homsars. This float has a big pile of sweatshirts in the center, a giant shooting star on the front, and a bee suspended by a giant spring on the back. &amp;quot;SWE ATSHIRTS&amp;quot; is printed on the base of the float. Homestar Runner is buried in the pile of sweatshirts with only his head visible.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Oh, now this is just adorable, Homestar Runner's sweatshirt float.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{referring to the noticable space in the float's wording}'' It looks more like a &amp;quot;swee-atshirt&amp;quot; float to me.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' You say tomater, I say tomatamorts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a close-up of Homestar buried in the pile of sweatshirts.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Marzipan, help! I woke up in this pile of swee-atshirts and I don't know how to stop it! I'm s'pposed to be watching Bubs' concession stand while he's in some ridiculous parade, ''{looking down}'' and I'm pretty sure a rat just bit my knee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Oh, that's great sweetie. Say hi to that bee for me.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{annoyed}'' Hi, bee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the wide shot. Strong Mad walks into the frame carrying Bubs' Concession Stand, which has clearly been ripped out of the ground recently, as there are missing bricks and bits of sod still hanging from the bottom.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Well, it looks like Bubs has come to his senses and entered a proper float in the parade. 'Atta boy, Bubs!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' I'm pretty sure that's just Strong Mad absconding with Bubs' Concession Stand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Oh. Serves him right then.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to Coach Z and Marzipan.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Oh, and here comes one of my favorites: the K.O.T.H.S. Junior Varsity Marching Band!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the parade. The band enters, comprised of The King of Town waving The Poopsmith's shovel like a drum major's mace, The Poopsmith playing cymbals, The Hornblower blowing his horn, and the Knight playing a bass drum. The band comes to a halt. Cut to a close up of The King of Town.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' A-break it down for me, fell-as!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a wide shot of the band again. They face the camera and resume playing.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Oh, yeah! I'm feeling this! ''{begins rapping}'' One two, one two, keep it &amp;quot;flond&amp;quot;! Listen to me cause Coach Z's, he's got it goin' on!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a close-up of Coach Z as he continues rapping.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' I'm a pretty nice guy with fairly good teeth! C'mon, watch me&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' No more free-styling. It's really annoying.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut back to the parade route. A new float enters. Strong Bad is on the float standing between two Snowmen and beating them with nunchaku. The base of the float, which appears to be a mattress, reads: &amp;quot;Celebrating 04 Glorious Seconds of Nunchucking Snowmen.&amp;quot; The &amp;quot;04&amp;quot; is a digital sign that counts up as the scene continues.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Ah, and here's Strong Bad's annual not-even-remotely-fall-related float.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Is it just me, or does one of those snowmen look suspiciously like Strong Sad?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Nah, Strong Sad's yellow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Cut to a close-up of Strong Bad and the snowman on the left, who is in fact Strong Sad. He spits out the carrot that had been in his mouth.}'' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Ptooey! Strong Bad, I thought you said our float was going to be &amp;quot;Celebrating Our Nation's Covered Bridges.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' No, I said our float was going to be &amp;quot;Sticking-You-In-A-Fake-Snowman-And-Beating-You-Senseless-With-Nunchucks... Covered Bridges.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' Well, how on earth did I misunderstand all that?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' I don't know man. You hear the words &amp;quot;covered bridges&amp;quot; and you just go into a trance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{starts going into a trance}'' Oh, covered bridges.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Strong Sad starts moaning, but snaps out of it when Strong Bad resumes beating him with the nunchaku.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' And, as always, bringing up the rear...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{As Strong Bad continues beating the snowmen, a looming shadow crawls across the scene and ominous music plays.  Cut to a close-up of a giant balloon in the shape of [[Marshie]].}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' ...it's the Marshie balloon!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Man, that thing has got to frighten some children!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Is anyone guiding that balloon?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Ominous music plays again as the camera pans down and The Cheat can be seen hanging from one of the balloon ropes, clearly not in control of the balloon.  Cut to a wide shot of the platform Coach Z and Marzipan are standing on.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''MARZIPAN:''' Run for your lives!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The Marshie balloon collides with the platform, knocking Coach Z and Marzipan off.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''COACH Z:''' Argh! I regret everything!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{The television signal cuts out as the platform collapses.  It is quickly replaced by a technical difficulty screen with a turkey pulling a plug. The caption at the top reads &amp;quot;Pardon our problems...&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;The End&amp;quot; appears at the bottom.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Footnotes===&lt;br /&gt;
# {{note|1}} ''There is some debate concerning whether this word is &amp;quot;tinfoil&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;[http://www.pennzoil.com Pennzoil]&amp;quot; &amp;amp;mdash; see [[Talk:Fall Float Parade#Tinfoil?|Talk]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Easter Eggs ==&lt;br /&gt;
*Click the top left question mark at the end to see what happened to Bubs' Concession Stand.&lt;br /&gt;
:''{Strong Mad and Strong Bad are in what appears to be the Computer Room, but there's a washing machine in place of Strong Bad's desk. Strong Mad is still holding the concession stand.}''&lt;br /&gt;
:'''STRONG MAD:''' CAN I KEEP IT?&lt;br /&gt;
:'''STRONG BAD:''' No, you can't keep it. Now go put that thing back.&lt;br /&gt;
:'''STRONG MAD:''' IT FOLLOWED ME HOME!!!&lt;br /&gt;
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, yeah. ''That's'' not true.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Click the top plug outlet at the end to see an additional scene with Homestar Runner.&lt;br /&gt;
:''{Homestar is standing in what seems to be the Field.}''&lt;br /&gt;
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Homestar Runner, you have truly outdone yourself!&lt;br /&gt;
:''{Pan out to reveal Homestar in a box labeled &amp;quot;blue face man's store&amp;quot; over the removed Bubs' Concession Stand's foundation.}''&lt;br /&gt;
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Old Mr. Bubs will never know the difference!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
{{checkstuffpage}}&lt;br /&gt;
===Explanations===&lt;br /&gt;
* K.O.T.H.S. stands for &amp;quot;King of Town High School&amp;quot;. Most American high schools have marching bands.&lt;br /&gt;
*A [[Wikipedia:Covered bridge|covered bridge]] is a bridge with enclosed sides and a roof. These single-lane bridges are found throughout rural areas of the Northeastern and Midwestern United States.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
* Due to a discrepancy between the names of the HTML file and the Flash file, this toon didn't load properly when it was first released. A corrected version of the HTML file became available about two hours later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
* In the Homestar Easter egg, either Bubs' Concession Stand does not have a basement (contradicting [[geddup noise]]), or Homestar's box is covering the hole that leads to it.&lt;br /&gt;
* The foliage in the background of the parade has changed to fall colors, but the foliage is still green behind Homestar as he stands on the site of Bubs' Concession Stand.&lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Sad spit out the carrot in his mouth before speaking, but when we see him in the background of the shot as the Marshie float threatens the platform, it is in his mouth again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*At the end when the Marshie balloon crashes into the stand, and Strong Bad's float is visible in the background, the seconds counter showing how long he's been &amp;quot;celebrating glorious seconds of nunchucking snowmen&amp;quot; has nothing on it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Inside References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The two Homsars are another instance of [[Twin characters|twin characters]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;quot;pardon our problems&amp;quot; screen is in the same format as the &amp;quot;technical difficulties&amp;quot; screen from [[pizzaz]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The [[Wikipedia:Nunchaku|nunchaku]] Strong Bad uses is from [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque's]] &amp;quot;nunchuck-gun&amp;quot; in [[dangeresque 3]].&lt;br /&gt;
*This is another appearance of [[Sticky Notes|sticky notes]].&lt;br /&gt;
*The wagon supporting Strong Bad's float is the [[Wagon Fulla Pancakes]] minus the pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
*When the KOTHS band first appears, it plays the theme song from [[The King of Town DVD]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Real-World References===&lt;br /&gt;
*The theme of a &amp;quot;Fall Float Parade&amp;quot; is a reference to many Thanksgiving Day Parades, most notably the [[Wikipedia:Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade|Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade]], a large parade taking place in New York on Thanksgiving each year.&lt;br /&gt;
*The fez-wearing Homsars in the little cars are modeled after the [[Wikipedia:Shriners|Shriners]], who also appear often in parades.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;You say tomater, I say tomatamorts&amp;quot; is a reference to [[Wikipedia:George Gershwin|George]] and [[Wikipedia:Ira Gershwin|Ira Gershwin]]'s 1937 hit song ''Let's Call the Whole Thing Off.''&lt;br /&gt;
*Coach Z's &amp;quot;I regret everything!&amp;quot; is a reversal of &amp;quot;I regret nothing!&amp;quot;, a phrase appropriate for a last stand.  Strong Bad used it in [[do over]], but it originated as an Edith Piaf [[Wikipedia:List of French phrases|song title]], and was adopted as the motto of the [[Wikipedia:French Foreign Legion#The Legion in popular culture|French Foreign Legion]].&lt;br /&gt;

== Transcript ==&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
''{Pom Pom and Strong Bad are standing next to The Stick.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' So I was like, ''{begins to &amp;quot;shake it&amp;quot; mockingly}'' &amp;quot;Well, you think you're so hot, but me hot, ''me hot''!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pom Pom laughs.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, that's a pretty good one, huh? Oh crap, I should probably check my email. Hey, let me see your Pom Pilot! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pom Pom tosses his Pom Pilot to Strong Bad.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing as he uses the stylus to bring up the email}'' Checkin' my email... Here at the stick... That's pretty cool...&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote class=&amp;quot;email&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;background-image:none;border:4px solid #666;background:#999;color:#000&amp;quot;&amp;gt;DEAR STRONGBAD,&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

OFF WiTH BOXING GLOVES ON?&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
VERY CRAPFULLY:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
PHYLO D&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, not really, man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He holds his hand straight to the front.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm flippin you off right now. Of course there's other ways to give somebody the finger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He puts his hand behind him.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, check it out: behind the back.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He waves his hand in circles.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, around the world. And my personal favorite.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He holds both of his arms up to the side.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Psssshhh! The Double Deuce! What's your favorite, Pom Pom?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pom Pom holds one of his hands up.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah, Pom Pom likes the Single Deuce.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pom Pom nods. Homestar walks on screen.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, Homestar!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{He flips his hand to Homestar.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, right back at you Strong Bad!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Homestar walks away.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' He just gave me the bird!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{Pom Pom laughs.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''STRONG BAD:''' That wasn't funny, man! That'll hurt a guy's feelings. ''{Brooding}'' Okay, so until next week send me your email and I will more than likely flip you off.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''{[[The Paper]] comes down. After a few seconds, Pom Pom peeks his head out from under it.}''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Fun Facts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Trivia===&lt;br /&gt;
*This the first instance of a character interacting with The Paper.&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the only email set completely outside.&lt;br /&gt;
*This is the first email Strong Bad doesn't answer on his own computer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Remarks===&lt;br /&gt;
*Apparently, Pom Pom has Strong Bad's email username and password saved on to his Pom Pilot. Strong Bad didn't even have to log in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Goofs===&lt;br /&gt;
*The page title is ''Tandy 400!!!'', even though Strong Bad is never at his computer.&lt;br /&gt;
*Right before Strong Bad gives the Double Deuce, he sets down the Pom Pilot at his feet. Then, when Homestar Runner walks by, the Pom Pilot is nowhere to be seen. &lt;br /&gt;
*Strong Bad's right eye &amp;lt;!-- DO NOT CHANGE THIS PLEASE--&amp;gt;(on the viewer's left) has the &amp;quot;gleam&amp;quot; in the wrong spot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fast Forward===&lt;br /&gt;
*The Double Deuce would later become [[Stinkoman]]'s main attack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== DVD Version ==&lt;br /&gt;
===Glitches===&lt;br /&gt;
At the very start of the email, a brief snippet of the music from the Easter egg in [[little animal]] (the previous email) plays.&lt;br /&gt;
