== New evolution. ==

I think Strong Sad has a new look in this email. [[User:MICGAGUH]]
:No, he doesn't. That happened last week. but, for some reason, he switches between his old and new design. the old one shows up when he films the dead plant. then, when he graps the monopoly money, he has his new, more realistic hands. this goes on throughout the rest of the toon.--{{User:Crudely Drawn Cupcake/sig}} 13:44, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

== 404'd? ==

Is anyone else getting 404'd when they try to watch this?--[[User:DJmankiewicz|DJmankiewicz]] 12:22, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
:Yep, I definitely am. Even with OpenDNS Servers. {{User:ColdReactive/sig}} 13:01, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

:I can't see either! Maybe it's cause I'm a different time-zone or something. It's pretty early here on the west coast.

I'm also getting 404'd. Furthermore, when I visit homestarrunner.com, there's no mention of a new e-mail on the main page, and the Strong Bad E-mails list is the Corpy Remote with 'imaginary' listed as the most recent. I wonder if this is related to the truncated quote of the day file some of us were getting.

If you do the same thing with your hand, it looks pretty much like SS's hand. There's a crease at the base of the middle finger such that it could look detached, especially in animated form.[[Special:Contributions/146.122.71.68|146.122.71.68]] 17:00, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

== Softer Keypresses ==

Not sure whether this would be mentioned here, or just on the Compé page, but to me it sounds like the Compé has softer\smoother keypress sounds than previous Compys. -{{User:ReverendTed/sig}} 16:03, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
:I noticed that too--{{User:Crudely Drawn Cupcake/sig}} 16:30, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

== Choosy users choose single references ==

<blockquote>"Evil Moms choose Evil Gif" is a play on the sentence "Choosy developers choose GIF", which itself is a play on Jif peanut butter tag line, "Choosy Moms choose Jif"). Choosy developers choose GIF is a rumored sentence that CompuServe Developers, who created the GIF format, said around the office. </blockquote>

Problem is, he says "Moms", not "Developers", which means it's actually closer to the original than the "developers" line (since he pronounces Gif the same way as "Jif"). I say either footnote the "developers" bit or nix it. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:45, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
:Nix it. Both the line from the email and the developers bit are references to the peanut butter, but I doubt the line from the email is intentionally referencing the developers bit. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 17:28, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

== Short Answer, Long Answer ==

Should it be noted that that joke was done essentially verbatim in the Spore episode of Zero Punctuation? -[[Special:Contributions/128.103.10.135|128.103.10.135]] 00:35, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
:I also thought about it, and I think it should stay on the page, but somehow I have a feeling the the long NOOOO have earlier sources. I found this [http://www.cartoonstock.com/directory/s/short_answer.asp cartoon], but it doesn't have the source year. The Zero Punctuation came out on 17 September 2008, And the long answer joke is the first and most notable one in the video review. It's so exaggerated that it's repeated before the end credits. So, does anybody have a different, more TBC-style source for the joke, or are we going to claim "originality" here? {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 04:42, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
::I don't think it should stay on. It's an old joke, and I don't think that something from 2008 should be sited as the original. I found a post on gamespot from Jan 2 2008 that used it and a Yahoo answer from 2 years ago that used it. I just think that citing that review as the source is ill informed unless TBC say they got it from there.--[[Special:Contributions/98.223.125.74|98.223.125.74]] 05:02, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Yeah, the first time I heard it was in Jon Stewart's [http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/tue-september-6-2005/intro---hurricane-katrina monologue] on whether the U.S. government bungled its handling of Hurricane Katrina on the September 6, 2005 edition of The Daily Show. I don't know if the joke is older than that, but ZP's use is not the first, the funniest, or the most widely heard.[[User:Tirian|Tirian]] 16:26, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
:I don't think this joke was inspired by ZP's. ZP's is obnoxiously long, Strong Bad's is only long enough for it to be funny. [[User:Danny Lilithborne|Danny Lilithborne]] 11:58, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

== Gnome stomped? ==

I noticed the first wallpaper (the grass one) here looked like one of the GNOME Wallpapers.

For proof, I have the image here: [[File:Gnomewallp.jpg|thumb|Any resamplance to this?]]

Willimm

:Do you '''''really'''''? {{User:Neox/sig}} 00:14, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
::Yes, GNOME is GNU's desktop enviroment. I am still searching for said wallpaper. Willimm

== Zero Punctuation? ==

Strongbad's "short answer/long answer" is pretty much exactly the same as a ZP video a while back for Spore:

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/218-Spore (usually has a good bit of swearing in it, so most likely nsfw)

Think it's worth mentioning as a real-world reference? Or too vague?

Whoops, how did I miss that? Sorry!

== Juno ==

The opening of the "indie film" is very much like the opening to Juno; with the little-known band soundtrack and pencil drawings filling in the scenes etc. I leave the edit in your hands if you deem it worthy.
(Previous unsigned comment left by [[Special:Contributions/87.254.80.152|87.254.80.152]])
:I removed this Real-World Reference item yesterday:
::* The animated intro in Pom Pom's indie movie is a reference to films which use hand-drawn style opening credit sequences, such as [http://www.shadowplaystudio.com/juno/ this one] from [[Wikipedia:Juno (film)|Juno]].
:on the grounds that Juno is (the contributor even admits) not the only thing this could be a reference to, and I thought it was our policy around here not to make statements like "Hand-drawn animated opening credit sequences are a reference to hand-drawn animated opening credit sequences." Nonetheless, the item was resurrected a few edits later, and even brought back in its original form a few edits after that, and has now sprouted an additional excuse for inclusion, that the director is the son of a famous director (which doesn't make it any more of a reference to hand-drawn animated intros). However, I am not someone who has time to keep coming back and deleting something just to stand my ground, so let me just register my disagreement here. [[User:LikeAsItself|LikeAsItself]] 02:37, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
:::It says "such as." That means that it's not saying it's a reference to '''only''' Juno, but just using that particular one as an example. I'm reverting. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 02:46, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
::::I didn't add the reference to begin with, but changed it back to Juno with explanation after someone else suggested Shortbus. I think it's probably an actual reference to Juno, especially with the added director comment. Regardless, if you look at it grammatically, it isn't of the form "Hand-drawn animated opening credit sequences are a reference to hand-drawn animated opening credit sequences," but "Hand-drawn animated opening credit sequences are a reference to films such as Juno." Maybe it could be re-reworded to indicate that PP's film references Juno, which has a hand-drawn ... and a director who's the son of a famous ....[[Special:Contributions/146.122.71.68|146.122.71.68]] 12:33, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::My point was that if you have to say "such as" then it's not a reference to a specific thing and it shouldn't be mentioned. I have seen this reasoning used to remove items on this wiki before, usually when people couldn't agree on what was being referenced (one that sticks out in my memory was the line "Can I get a witness?" in the [[retirement]]). Now I wasn't the one who changed it to Shortbus, but the fact that someone did sort of proves my point. [[User:LikeAsItself|LikeAsItself]] 02:42, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

== Nitpicky? ==

DeFender just reverted the following fact because "it's a cartoon and this is too nitpicky."

<nowiki>*It's odd that Strong Bad didn't notice the desktop before, since he would have had to gone in earlier to set up his e-mail account.</nowiki>

I, however, contend that Remarks are for being nitpicky, and that's why this isn't a goof. Plus, it's something I didn't immediately notice when I was watching the email. Thoughts? --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 19:26, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
:He's never had to set up an email client before, it always just works from the program strongbad_email.exe which seems to be a client hard-coded to strong bad's email. So that same program is now an icon on the GUI. no problem. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 19:30, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
::Or it's possible The Cheat sets it up for him, or Bubs, or whoever has any sort of experience with technology. The point is, though, most likely outside of cartoons Strong Bad would have had to get on the computer to set up his account, and therefore I think it's remarkable. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 19:41, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
:::As i just said, no he wouldn't, he'd just have had to install that program, which doesn't necessarily require accessing the computer (perhaps it comes standard with the operating system) {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 19:43, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
:In a similar vein, it seems strange that Strong Bad would be surprised that the desktop is "actual graphics" when he's obviously familiar with the "24-bit .png with alpha channel." -{{User:ReverendTed/sig}} 20:52, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
::Or he could have heard a bunch of nerds arguing about it, like on Gif/Gif. The fact remains that unless it's shown in the cartoon, we can't know what Strong Bad saw of didn't. It's a cartoon - Stuff doesn't have to make sense to the tiniest detail. Trivia can be nitpicky about facts that are ''really'' absurd, not if some character looked at something or not. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 21:00, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

== Possible Fun Fact? ==

Which category should this one go under (I was thinking either Explanations or Real-World References)? Or is it completely unnecessary?

*The car shown in the intro to Pom Pom's indie film is actually a 2007-2008 [[Wikipedia:Nissan Maxima|Nissan Maxima]].
**The car also got 21 City/28 Highway MPG in 2007 and 19 City/25 Highway MPG in 2008.

{{User:Homestarmy Commando1/sig}}
:It's interesting, but the second bullet shouldn't go on the page. Put it in "Explanations," I think. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 02:53, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
::Well, I thought the second bullet should be kept, since the intro shows the car as having 18 MPG. But we should wait for some more opinions. {{User:Homestarmy Commando1/sig}}

I would phrase it this way:

*The car shown in the intro to Pom Pom's indie film is actually a 2007-2008 [[Wikipedia:Nissan Maxima|Nissan Maxima]], which actually got 19 City/25 Highway MPG in 2008.

Slightly cleaner than two bullet points, and still as ludicrusly matter-of-fact as hrwiki tends to be. [[Special:Contributions/65.191.103.62|65.191.103.62]] 20:51, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

:Good Idea, but I'm still unsure as to what category it should go under. Any suggestions?

{{User:Homestarmy Commando1/sig}}

== city (comma) state title reference ==
The title "city (comma) state" has its punctuation mark spelled out, similar to [[wikipedia:Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters|Aqua Teen Hunger Force '''Colon''' Movie Film for Theaters]], and I was not sure whether or not this would be a valid reference. [[User:Gsu eagle 31049|Gsu eagle 31049]] 17:59, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
:Probably not. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 18:30, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

== Dead of space = Dead space? ==

Does anyone think the movie poster saying "In the dead of space, dealing with aliens is the easiest part of the voyage" is a reference to the video game, Dead space? I mean, its in space, its a voyage, it has aliens..
:Like every other sci-fi novel/movie/game/comic. Not to mention that "Dead Space" is named after an actual phrase. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 20:56, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

== Error again ==

The city comma state poster moves when it is being zoomed into.--{{User:Crudely Drawn Cupcake/sig}} 01:24, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

== Extra Explanation ==

Do you think we should include an explanation regarding what independent films are? I mean, there might be some people out there (like myself) who don't really know what indie films are. {{User:Neox/sig}} 22:57, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:Fine, ignore the n00b. It's not like I care... but I do... {{User:Neox/sig}} 19:37, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
::I think we should. If it's any consolation, I don't know what indie films are either. [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 18:48, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
:::I agree as well. I went for a long time thinking 'indie' meant 'indian'.

== Indie Cred ==

When i heard this in the toon, the first thing i thought of was Mindy Cred from [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 12]]. Is it a reference? {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 04:44, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
:There actually exists (sort of) something called "indie cred." It's much like "street cred," only for indie filmmakers. You can attach the word "cred" to the end of any sort of noun, really, and it's possible that it makes sense. ~Foxby
::That sounds awesome... I think i'm gonna go get myself some [[pop-up|taco salad cred]] right now. Or at least some leftover chicken pot pie cred... {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 05:29, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

== camera ==

Strong Sad's camera looks like a Bolex to me. Any comments? [[Special:Contributions/70.109.107.68|70.109.107.68]] 18:18, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

== Dangersque Irony ==

Should it be noted that Dangersque is an independent film, making Strong Bad a total hypocrite? I mean, for the live performance of "Alright 4 2Nite", that Limozeen guy even described it as an independent film.

:'''STRONG BAD:''' I can't unplug the Lappy. It takes five to seven business days to fully charge the battery. Lappy don't charge on weekends.

=== Random Shouts ===
:'''Things heard shouted by the protesters outside (also heard when Strong Bad is [[#Looking at Yard|looking out the window]])'''

:''{Camera zooms in and out, light effects and sound clip from techno play}''
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{robotically}'' I didn't prepare myself.

=== Sign ===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' I really gotta update that sign with something more forceful... but, eh, that sounds like too much work.

=== Stooly ===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah, my trusty steed. Stooly, I'd ride you into email battle any day.

==Kitchen==

===Cereal===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{zoom in on the cereal box}'' What's in the Cheat Commandos-Os box...? ''{finds the eye patch}'' A free sugar-frosted eye patch, just like the one Fightgar wore in the episode "Tickled Pink-Eye!"
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{zoom in on the cereal box}'' Cheat Commandos-Os are a delicious part of this ridiculous breakfast.

===Dead Plant===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{zoom in on Charlemagne}'' Strong Sad's suicidal houseplant. If only we had read his journal, we might have seen the signs...
====Lighter → Dead Plant====
:'''STRONG BAD:''' I can't cremate Charlemagne! His license says he's an organ donor.

===Fridge===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{zoom in on Strong Bad opening the fridge}'' I love how the fridge smells like rotting vegetables, when there's never been a vegetable in it. ''{closes the fridge}''

===Front Door===
:''{While under house arrest}''
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Cut to Strong Bad walking out the door and past the fence. His head promptly explodes, plastering him against the opposite wall in the Living Room. He peels off and falls to his knees on the floor.}'' Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrbbbbt! ''{shakes the char off his face}'' An invisible fence that makes your head explode when you cross it. Seemed like such an awesome idea when I recommended it at the last town meeting.
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{He walks out the door. An explosion pastes him to the wall again.}'' Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrbbbbt! ''{shakes the char off his face}'' Shaking off char-head's not nearly as satisfying as shaking off frying pan-head.

==Laundry Room==

===Dryer===
:'''While under house arrest'''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{finds camouflage pants}'' I knew if I ran them in the dryer a few hundred times, they'd shrink down to my size.
::{{short hr}}
::'''STRONG BAD:''' The key to surviving in prison is to not hang out in the laundry room for too long. Or Shiv City, as I like to call it.
:'''After escaping from house arrest'''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' The emperor's new clothes just need to tumble dry. Then I can put them on.

===Pennants===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Those are pennants from various academic institutions, unaccredited and discredited alike.

===Pillow===

==Living Room==

===Carpet===

:'''STRONG BAD:''' Few can withstand the otherwordly horror of Ugrug: the world's ugliest rug.

===Smoke Detector===
:'''Before setting it on fire'''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{zoom in on the smoke detector}'' Ah, the smoke detector. AKA: The Place to Find a Spare 9-Volt.
:'''After setting it on fire'''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{zoom in on the burning smoke detector}'' To be fair, that fire's not actually smoking.

====Lighter → Smoke Detector====
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{sets fire to the smoke detector}'' Whoa! That doesn't make me feel very safe.

===Window===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{zoom in on the window}'' Aw, man. Of all the weeks I could've picked to install steel bars on all the ground floor windows. At least it stopped Strong Mad's sleepwalking.
====Lighter → Window====
:''{First time only}''
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Gotta send a top-secret coded message to my man on the outside. ''{holds the lighter in the window, flicking it on and off as he talks}'' Operation...Excelsior...Is...Go. Please...Send...Secret...Plans. ''{receives Teen Girl Squad idea}'' All right! It's... a drawing of an egg. Oh boy, I guess I can make a drawing of an omelet now. ''{signals out the window}'' Thanks...for...nothing...moron.
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' That'd be a waste of time.

===Plaque (Dog)===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{Walks back and forth, watching the plaque}'' I don't like the way that hush puppy's eyes follow me when I walk around.

===Plaque (Horse)===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' How come none of the Dutch Masters ever worked in the medium of wood-burny-on-tree-slice?

==Looking at Yard==
===Invisible Fence===

===King of Town effigy===
:''{close view of the base of the effigy, surrounded by Creamy Dings, slow pan up, revealing a plain pole bearing the sign "King of Town" and a plain white styrofoam sphere on top}''

::'''STRONG BAD:''' Friends and losers, my long incarceration has taught me that we can never be truly free until we reject the fat-thority of The King of Town. Hencetoforthwith, I shall only refer to him as, "The of Town". As of today, Strong Badia is it's own independent nation!
::''{all gasp}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat, if you will...
::''{The Cheat is shown behind the fence, mashing play on a boom box, organ chords begin to play. Cut to Strong Bad, who stands in front of a Strong Badian flag which fills the whole view}''
::'''STRONG BAD:''' We should all live in a place where we are free! Free to pick our friends! Free to pick our noses! And most importantly, free to pick our friends' noses! ''{Strong Badian national anthem begins}'' That's why I, Strong Bad of the Might Tighty Whities, declare ''war'' on The of Town! Who's with me?! ''{blowing wind is heard, cut to a wide shot of Strong Badia, where now only Strong Bad and The Cheat remain}'' Where'd everybody go?

===Mailbox===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Hmm, I guess I ''could'' wait for an eviction notice. That would get me out of the house.
===Package===
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Man, ain't that always the way. The one day an interesting package comes in the mail, is the day you get put under house arrest for tax evasion.
===Protestors===
====Protestors → Fence====
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Are you losers gonna just stand around losing, or help me get past that fence?
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That would be illegal!
:'''COACH Z:''' I can't go back to the joint again, man! I ain't goin'!
:'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{zoom in on pile of Creamy Dings at the base of the effigy}'' We started a collection to help pay your back taxes. ''You're welcome!''
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Any ideas how I can break house arrest and get past that fence?
:'''MARZIPAN:''' No, but I've got some great ideas for things you can do indoors. Build a birdhouse, make a rabbit lean-to, construct a beetle pagoda—
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Any ideas don't involve me wanting to blow my brains out?
:'''MARZIPAN:''' Hmm. Probably not.
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{whiny}'' I'm never gonna get out of this house!
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Don't worry, we'll be here ''every day'' for you until you're released, singing songs 'bout freedom and compression!
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{camera slowly zooms out and up into the sky away from Strong Bad}'' Noooooo!

====Protestors → Effigy====
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Why'd you bring that ugly, misshapen stick?
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' She organized the protest rally!
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Not Marzipan! ''{softly}'' Though that's a pretty good one, gotta remember that. ''{speaking normally}'' I'm talking 'bout that stick dangerously close to the invisible fence.
:'''COACH Z:''' That's our orfigy of the King of Town! Er, arfigy. RPG. First person shooter!
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Effigy? That looks nothing like the King of Town.
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, Marzipan made us take all that stuff off.
:'''MARZIPAN:''' Right, Homestar. We're protesting the ''actions'' of the King of Town, not the man himself.
:'''STRONG MAD:''' FIGHT THE POWER!
:'''COACH Z:''' We was gonna burn it, but after lookin' at that pathetic thing, our hearts just ain't in it. We want to fry up the King of Town, not Stickball Jackson.
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Shouldn't you all be putting a torch to that quote-unquote effigy?
:'''COACH Z:''' Eh. It's just a stick. Can't really get into protestin' a simple stick.
====Protestors → No King of Town====
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Man, this is ''so'' unfair. I gotta write an angry letter to my doughy congressman.
:'''MARZIPAN:''' Didn't you see the warning message about the new e-mail tax?
:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{imitating Marzipan}'' No, I didn't see the warning message about the new e-mail tax. ''{speaking normally}'' All messages from the King of Town get intercepted with extreme prejudice by my idiot filter.
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' But I sent you all kinds of reminder e-mails!
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Idiot filter.
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' But I sent you all kinds of reminder e-mails!
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Idiot— nevermind.
:{{short hr}}
:'''STRONG BAD:''' My people, we can no longer suffer under the invisible boot of this power-mad tyrant. A call to arms! Who's with me?

:''{Strong Bad pronounces "dont" as dahnt and "youd" as ya-ood}''

:'''STRONG BAD:''' Well, Roytee, it goes without saying that I'd be a better ruler than the King of Town. ''{clears screen}'' But seriously, who wants that job? Stuck in a castle all day, stuck making dumb laws, probably stuck in the bathtub... no thanks, man. ''{cut to over the shoulder shot of Strong Bad}'' And the King of Town's mostly harmless. Sure he's stupid looking, ''{cut to drawing of the King of Town on a sheet of notebook paper, his Dumb Crown, Cheesy Beard, Stupid Red Robe and Fatness are labelled}'' as this scientific diagram illustrates, but he stays out of my business, and that lazy faire approach to government is a welcome alternative.

:'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' ''{standing in the doorway, theme music begins to play}'' Aha! Caught you red gloved-ed.

:'''STRONG BAD:''' The King of Town?! How'd ''you'' get in here?

:'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' In flagrant disregard of my new e-mail tax, eh? One Creamy Ding snack cake for every e-mail sent or received!

:'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{cut to Strong Bad}'' E-mail tax?! ''{zoom in}'' Flagrant?! ''{zoom in}'' Creamy ... ''{zoom in}'' Ding?!

:'''STRONG BAD:''' My map! I need that!

:'''STRONG BAD:''' House arrest? Aw man, this is the worse thing to happen to my style in a long line of bad things happening to my style. I gotta find a way outta here, and give that uncharacteristically oppresive King of Town a serious mustache pounding.

::::Just to clarify: the song Homestar sings in [[anything]] is the same tune as the themesong from The Neverending Story; that's an objective fact that can be demonstrated by anyone who knows musical notation.

=="Human noses?"==

Does Strong Bad imply that he is not human? Has this ever happened before?
:I was wondering about that myself. I know it was in a quick joke, and may not hold a lot of weight, but I think something like whether or not you're human isn't something that you casually contradict in a joke with out paying attention. You wouldn't say "It looks just like me except with a human nose" even as a joke, unless it was already given that you weren't human, or at least weren't considered human.--{{User:Johnny Jupiter/sig}} 08:36, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
::well, no matter how you look at it, he ''doesn't'' have a human nose, just like how homestar and the like don't have arms or pants, and those are mentioned all the time, too. i don't think it has much bearing on ''what'' anybody is. --[[User:Neumannz|Zatchman]] 08:54, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
:::Except he said "human nose". It would have been just like Homestar's arms if he just said "nose". The humor in that, just like the humor in [[fingers]] is adding something to him that he should have but obviously doesn't. It's the same way with the word human. The humor in adding a human nose to him is that he has no nose and he's not human.--{{User:Johnny Jupiter/sig}} 09:00, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

== A mousy description? / Coach Z can't talk. ==

First, I'm not sure about that description of the Cheat's mural picture. His pudginess and distinctive, if unlabelled, jar of Hunny seem to suggest Winnie the Pooh to me. (The antennae, obviously, are out of place.)

Second, does Coach Z say "You're toys" or "You're twice"? I definitely heard the latter, which I can imagine him saying because he's weird, but the former makes sense too. Any thoughts? -- [[User:Onamuji|Onamuji]] 12:54, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

:"Twice" would make a lot of sense, as there are two Strong Bads in the room. One is, admittedly, a pinata.

== Gunkistan? ==

Why got the Facts about Gunkistan being a portmanteau and a inside reference to Gunk Iller deleted?

:It may be because they're wrong...The portmanteau is less obviously incorrect, but technically -stan and is a suffix, a word in some language (Arabic) meaning "land," which is why it's used at the end of so many countries (Afghanistan = Land of the Afghanis, Kazakhstan = Land of the Kazakhs, etc.). This would make it not a portmanteau. As for the other one, being a reference to the Gunk Iller, I see no reason why this was up there in the first place. Gunk is a very common term for any gross, ambiguous substance.

::I disagree with you on the portmanteau subject. if you look at the [[Portmanteaus]] page you'll notice "Millionzoic", "Tenthennial" and "Geographist", all words with a general suffix. Gunkistan should be there too. Maybe I was a little off by saying that it's in particular park Pakistan, but that's the only country that have the letter K to form -kistan (Gun-Kistan).

:::: Strong Bad makes it clear what these are and why they ''vaguely'' resemble Disney movies: "The ones that are slight variations of slightly animated kids' movies. The kind they put right next to the check-out line, so Grandma might accidentally mistake it for the real thing." When Disney releases an animated movie, knock-off companies rush their own ultracheap adaptations of the public domain source to the stores while the big budget version's still in theaters in order to get kids and grandmas to get all excited seeing "Aladdin" (or whatever) in the store and buy it. Go look at the cheap movie bin at a drugstore or the supermarket checkout racks sometime if you've never seen these. Not Bothering To Make An Account, 37:94 Forty-Terst Decembuary 20X8.

Newbies learn faster when you repeatedly point them to such well-trod pages as [[HRWiki:Standards]] and [[HRWiki:Inclusion guidelines]], and everyone's favorite [[HRWiki:Glossary#TTATOT]].

Is it worth noting anything about Soma (''Brave New World'', etc.)? It's not exactly relevant, given it's just a strange pronunciation, but perhaps it's worthy of a mention.

::::::Honestly, I have to agree with our anonymous idea poster. I didn't think of the reference at first, but when the lyrics for Smart Drinks came out, I began thinking. The song is rather hypnotic and subliminally suggestive, which makes the Brave New World reference seem much more plausible.
::::::On the other hand, TBC don't strike me as the kind of guys to put a random reference to a classic sci-fi novel in one of the cartoons. Classic other things, yes. But not sci-fi novels.

Removed from the Remarks section, but interesting enough for the Talk page:

:(Note that Strong Bad swings the eighth notes, so it comes out less stiff than what I wrote down. Still, this should be pretty accurate.)

== Cinnamon stubble ==

It looks like Homestar has his cinnamon stubble again in this one. In the transcript, it just observes that he's "unshaved." I'm not entirely sure this is accurate, as HSR has never actually, to my knowledge, said that he shaves, and I'm pretty certain that he said he doesn't. I'm too lazy and tired to find the email where this happens, though. Anyways, should the transcript be changed to acknowledge the cinnamon-ness, or should it be pointed out as a running joke in the remarks section? Or is it understood at this point that anytime HSR has stubble that it's cinnamon, and thus it need not be mentioned? [[User:Nightsong81|Nightsong81]] 09:17, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

While I was here, I noticed that in the music thread above, someone raised the point that the bot's lyrics from e-mail to qotd are different. Listen to frames ~1549-1639 (it's the scene with Bubs the bartender selling Strong Bad a Pink Elephant Pants for $17.50). From playing those frames, the bot is clearly saying something a lot longer than "don't" in the e-mail.

Singer: Have another round... 
Bot: <garglemesh> another round...
