Traveling Ham: /* Glitches */

[[Image:Intro decision page flipped.png|thumb|Which way is up again?]]
On '''[[Wikipedia:April Fool's Day|April Fool's Day]] 2006''', [[The Brothers Chaps]] flipped the site upside down.
==Fun Facts==
===Remarks===
*The following pages / sites were exempt from the flipping because they are hosted separately from the main H*R content or are not Flash files:
**[[Strong Bad's Website]]
**[[Store]]
**[[Legal]]
**[[Strong Sad's Lament]]
**[[Stinkoman 20X6]]
***Note that if an HTML file is put together to try to do this, the "[[Stinkoman 20X6 Trivia#General|no Flash 7]]" warning appears.
**[[Podstar Runner]]
**[[Store Thank You Messages]]
**All the stuff in [[Museum]].

*Seek bars do not work with the flipped toons.
*Amusingly, this makes [[Homsar]]'s character page right-side up.

===Glitches===
*Several toons that are not the usual 550x400 resolution are not centered properly:
**[[virus]]
***This email also suffers from its custom navbar missing, so Homestar pulls his words from nowhere.
**[[Not the 100th Email!!!]]
**[[Handheld Games Menu]]
**[[flashback]] and [[Main Page 22]] are both correct, as they use their own flipper swf files, which handle the different size.
*Some pages have invisible or missing text:
**[[Under Construction]]
**[[Main Page 18]] (No HTML text in the "Store" effect.)
*In [[highschool]], the "m." on Young Strong Mad's shirt is missing.
*[[TROGDOR!]] doesn't load up properly - the game itself takes up only the bottom right quarter of the usual frame, and the rest is filled in with gray.
*Many buttons and other scripts on some of the site do not work, as they use the <code>_root</code> property in ActionScript to access the main scene of the Flash file. However, with the flipper file loading the main scene, <code>_root</code> actually referrs to the ''flipper'', not the scene itself. The Brothers Chaps could have gotten around this by using the <code>[http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/mx2004/main_7_2/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=Flash_MX_2004&file=00001522.html _lockroot]</code> property in the flipper, but it seems they didn't know about it (probably because they still use Flash 5, in which the _lockroot property doesn't exist).
**The Eject button on the [[Character Videos | Characters page]] (which normally makes Homsar's video come out of the VCR) does nothing.
**[[Edgar#Edgar's Baby's Daddy|Edgar's Baby's Daddy]] on [[candy product]] does not appear. Neither does the [[Old-Timey]] Easter egg in [[little animal]].
**The video clips in [[HomestarRunner.com PAY PLUS!]] repeat themselves automatically.
**The [[Random Toon|rando]] link on the navbar does not work.
**[[The King of Town DVD]], [[King of Town Main Page]] and anything linked from there loop at the end instead of stopping.
***Additionally, [[Revenge of the King]] seems to have a similar fate to TROGDOR! (with the broken screen), except you can not hurt The King of Town, nor does he shoot at you. The timer also doesn't work
**On the [[Decemberween Email Menu]], none of the Easter eggs work.
**The buttons on [[Downloads]] don't work.
**The [[Telebision Toons Menu]] does not work.
**On any [[Strong Bad Email]]s featuring the [[Tandy 400]] or the [[Compy 386]], the contrast buttons don't work. This includes the Easter eggs in [[gimmicks]]. The ripples on the [[Lappy 486]] appear and disappear much faster than normal, and do not stay if the mouse button is held down.
**In any of the [[Strong Bad's Message Bored]] Games, none of them work right. There is no possble way to score on any of them.
**In [[First Time Here?]], the number of takes never changes.
**The [[Peasant's Quest Movie Trailer]]s never load.
**The number of messages on [[Marzipan's Answering Machine]] never changes.
*In [[Peasant's Quest]], Trogdor's voice doesn't work.
**When the [[Kerrek]] is encountered, his tune does not play.
**Trying to kill [[Poor Gary]] proves unsuccessful.
*It seems that the text in the Quote of the Week isn't bold, like before the 'flip'.
*Nothing in the [[Handheld Games Menu]] (except for [[Homestar Quiz]]), including itself, is fully playable.
**None of the buttons in the actual menu work (except for "new games").
**None of the buttons in [[Dancin' Bubs]] work.
**[[Homestar Talker]] does not lay out stars for each correct word, and never progresses to the Strong Bad Talker.
**Nothing but the bongos in [[Audition With Marzipan]] are playable.
**[[Bronco Trolleys]] is broken; you can click the "Play" button, but the timer doesn't work and the ingredients are missing.
**Neither the text boxes nor the finished libs work in [[Strong Libs]].
**[[Hairstyle Runner]] is playable, but many things are not visible because the top frame is off-center.
**The fortune cookies in [[Fortune Cookies]] do not work.
**The [[Spin and Say]] does not spin.
**The buttons on the [[Astro Lite]] don't work.
*Although the [[Main Pages]] rollover effects were mostly fixed, some issues remain:
**[[Main Page 3]]: Homestar isn't knocked back by the coconut for "Email".
**[[Main Page 8]]: The screen keeps moving on "Characters".
**[[Main Page 10]]: [[The Homestar Runner]]'s body doesn't expand when the bomb explodes after "Downloads".
**[[Main Page 16]]: The entire menu still doesn't work properly. In fact, two versions of the copyright notice appear at the "top" of the screen, and the trees in the background are light blue.
**[[Main Page 18]]: On "Games", [[Sherlock]] does not mumble to himself. On "Store", the background "opens" and "closes" faster than usual, with no sound effects and no HTML behind it.
**[[Main Page 22]]: The "What's New", "Weeklies", and "Main Pages" buttons appear in their normal positions and orientations, and the partial scene from [[Peasant's Quest]] does not come in from the side.
**[[Main Page 23]]: Homestar doesn't move his lips for "Toons" and doesn't reply with "'Sup" for "Store". Also, the "What's New" and "Weeklies" are missing.
**[[Homsar Main Page]]: None of the effects work, except a few bubbles appearing on "Toons".
**[[Awexome Cross 98]]: When you lose all your lives, the game freezes and you see [[The Cheat]] spinning in the tire, but the background stays still.
*The Storyboards and Deleted Scenes in "In Search of The Yellow Dello" do not work.
*When the pages were fixed early on the morning of April 2nd, the Main Page Navigation Bar fix was not initially repaired, leaving the main page right-side up, but the News button and Main Page numbers flipped.
[[Image:Main 16 from 2001.PNG|thumb|[[Main Page 16]]: Looking into the past?]]
*After the orientation reset on April 2, [[Main Page 16]] had a copyright date of 2001 overlaying the regular copyright notice. Homestar would still speak as normal, but no triggered animations would happen other than mouth movements and a visible wisp of Homestar's breath.
**Homestar's scarf was also missing, as were some trees in the background.
*[[Strong Bad's Message Bored]] Games were also not functioning correctly, as many of their components (cars, Homestar Runners to shoot) were not present.
*The "Rando" button on the nav-bar wasn't working.

===Fixed Glitches===
* Originally, the "What's new" button on the main pages did not appear in the correct location and was right-side up. This was fixed shortly after the "feature's" release.
* The [[Strong Bad Email]] menu originally did not list any emails. This was also fixed.
* The Weeklies popups originally appeared right-side up, but were later fixed so that they would appear flipped like the rest of the site.
*Many of the rollover button effects on the Main Pages don't work. In most cases, the speaker simply says the name of the button that is hovered over (without moving his lips) and no visual effects or other sounds occur. This was later fixed.
* In the [[Main Page 22]] the word "games" was not there. This was fixed later in the day.

===Real-World References===
*The Flash file that causes the pages to be flipped contains the phrase "They call him Flipper", which is one of the lyrics to the [[Wikipedia:Flipper (1964 television)|Flipper]] theme song.

Traveling Ham: /* Remarks */

HRWiki:Changing username

Traveling Ham — Fri, 17 Mar 2006 16:48:01 GMT

Traveling Ham: /* Traveling Ham */

The user name users choose for themselves is no longer set in stone. On request, Bureaucrats can change user account settings and article histories such that all previous edits of a given user are attributed to the new name using [[Special:Renameuser]]. Note: you must make the request from the account you want renamed; anonymous requests (except users whose usernames begin with a lowercase letter and therefore cannot log in) are ignored for security reasons.
[[Category:HRWiki Maintenance]]
==Requesting a change==
# To change your user name, please make your request on this page.

== Instructions ==
Please follow the procedure carefully or your request will not be fulfilled.

#Check if the new name you want does not exist ([[Special:Listusers]]). '''Do not create an account under the new name'''. ''(If you already created the new account, don't worry. We can do some stuff and fix it, but it's still recommended that you don't.)''
#Sign in with the account that you want renamed.
#:''Of course, this is not possible if your account has a lowercase first letter. If you can't log in, then skip this step.''
#Add your request in the section below.
#If you are a sysop, please note this fact with your request so that the necessary changes can be made.
#Once your request is dealt with, all edits from your old account will be reattributed to your new account.
#You should check that the old account has been recreated and blocked to prevent someone else creating the account and impersonating you.
#:''This cannot be done in the case of usernames with a lowercase first letter, but they can no longer be registered so this isn't a problem.''
#Move and redirect your user page and talk page to the new name if it has not already been done.

==Current requests==

===Bkmlb===
{{User:bkmlb/sig}} 18:20, 9 October 2005 (UTC) Only the conributions if possible

:Okay, what username would you like to change it to?[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 19:41, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

::Can I just have the contributions from bkmlb and Bkmlb. transfered to Bkmlb? I don't care '''deeply''' but it would be nice.--{{User:bkmlb/sig}} 19:44, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

:::Please see step number 1 above. Since you already created the account for Bkmlb, I'd have to delete the Bkmlb account in the database in order to move bkmlb there. I can't make any promises, but we could try it if you want.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 19:56, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

::::Okay, try that.--{{User:bkmlb/sig}} 20:42, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

:::::Done.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 21:23, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

::::::Thanks!!--{{User:bkmlb/sig}} 22:09, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

===Mibluvr13===
I'd like my contributions moved from mibluvr13 to Mibluvr13. I'm okay with deleting my current account to do this. -- [[User:Mibluvr13|Mibluvr13]] 20:41, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
:Okay, I'll be deleting Mibluvr13 and moving mibluvr13 there now. Hang on to your hat.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 20:42, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

::Bwa ha ha ha! I even managed to keep the edits you've made as Mibluvr13. Okay, now, just for consistency's sake, I'm going to block [[User:mibluvr13]] so no one will ever be able to register with that name. (I know they can't now with the lowercase thing, but maybe that will change someday. Who knows?) Thanks for being the test case.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 21:14, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

:Thanks! I've even got my watchlist back. W00tness! -- [[User:Mibluvr13|Mibluvr13]] 21:17, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

::Very good. And I can't block [[User:mibluvr13]]. No one will be able to register for that name for the same reason I can't block it. Works well enough, I suppose. Now don't forget the rest of the steps.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 21:20, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

===GWR 2004===

:"i know. can you believe it?" --> "DJ Teh Cheat". Done.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 05:29, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

===djm1791===

:Again, you cannot sign in if your username used to start with a lowercase. Please see instructions at the top of this page. What would you like your username changed to? (It has to begin uppercase). Let us know and [[User:Tom|Tom]] will change it for you. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 08:38, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

===racerx_is_alive===

Capitalization makes me sad. Well, at least capitalizing Racerx_is_Alive makes me sad. But I see there is no other option, so why not make me Racerx_is_Alive. Thanks.

:"racerx_is_alive" --> "Racerx_is_Alive". Done.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 02:21, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

::Thanks. Maybe in MediaWiki 1.7.2 we will be able to have lowercase names again... :) --[[User:Racerx is Alive|Racerx_is_alive]] 15:15, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

===Trogga===
I just made a new account, [[User:Sam Goldfish|Sam Goldfish]]. Can I keep it? Oh, and sorry for not logging in as Trogga.

:Since it's possible for you to log in as Trogga, could you please so that I can confirm? Thanks.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 02:22, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

::I don't understand. {{User:Trogga/sig}}

:::Can anybody answer? Please? {{User:Trogga/sig}}

::::Since it is possible for you to log in as [[User:Trogga]], I wanted confirmation that it was actually you that made the request. Was it you? Do you still want to do it?[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 20:34, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

:::::It was me, and yes, I still want my name changed. {{User:Trogga/sig}}

Can you do this on the Fanstuff? Change my accounts "thatkidsam" and "Icreature" both to "Thatkidsam". --[[User:Thatkidsam|Thatkidsam]] 20:04, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

:Yeah, I'm going to get around to setting up a page similar to this over there later on.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 02:23, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

===daunrealist===
Can't log in because the first letter in [[User:daunrealist|daunrealist]] is lowercase! Can somebody please change it to Daunrealist?

:"daunrealist" --> "Daunrealist". Done.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 02:19, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

===phlip===
Like everyone else I already created an account as Phlip... {{User:Phlip/sig}} 05:27, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

:"phlip" --> "Phlip". Done.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 05:49, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

===ackicantthinkofaname===
My old username was ackicantthinkofaname, with the displayed name of breadtangle, however, I would now like to switch to the new username of breadtangle. However, because of my old displayed name this isn't possible, and I can't log in to fix it because of the lowercase first letter. Could ackicantthinkofaname be changed to breadtangle, or if not possible, can you remove the displayed name?

:I need you to answer two and only two questions:
:#What was your old username? (This would be what you used to type in the "Username" field on the [[Special:Userlogin]] page.)
:#What do you want your new username to be? (This can not have a lowercase first letter.)
:Thanks.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 21:41, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

::ackicantthinkofaname
::Breadtangle

:::"Breadtangle" is already taken. Any other ideas?[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 01:15, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
::::I think it's taken only because of my old display name, which was indeed breadtangle.

:::::Nope, it's another different and unique user. I checked.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 01:39, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

::::::Oh, and if you'd like to check for yourself, please see [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Special%3AListusers&group=&username=Breadtangle this search] of [[Special:Listusers]].[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 01:41, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

: Cwapface. Umm...fine, then can you just capitalize ackicantthinkofaname?

::"ackicantthinkofaname" --> "Ackicantthinkofaname". Done.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 20:09, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

===furrykef===

I know he hasn't been around for a while, but he is a Sysop. And if he tries to come around and edit anything in the future, he's gonna find his username's not working very well. Is the sysopness gonna be a problem at all, and are you gonna preemptivly capitalize his name, or wait until/if he comes around looking to log in? {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 06:59, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

:If you'd like to leave him a message about it, I suggest you use his [[Wikipedia:User talk:Furrykef|Wikipedia user talk page]], since (as you also noted) he isn't around here much.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 20:43, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

::Go ahead. - Kef (who can't log in 'cause of the switch - see [[Wikipedia:User talk:Furrykef|my Wikipedia talk page]] for verification)

===single deuce===
I know he may never come back again, but I think that we should at least change his username if he tries to come back and can't log in. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 20:24, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

:Please refrain from making requests for other users. If anyone tries to log in and cannot, they will receive the [[MediaWiki:Noname]] notice, which directs them to this page. Thanks.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 22:05, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

===strongrad===

===Lappy 486---->Salty===
Can I have my name changed to Salty? Also, when I sign with the two hyphens and four tildes, it says my name is already Salty. I don't know why. --[[User:Lappy 486|Lappy 486]] 04:32, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

:"Lappy 486" --> "Salty". Done. And you probably changed your sig preferences to display Salty instead of Lappy 486.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 05:47, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

===Aerosmth Rules===
When I made this account, I accidentally spelled Aerosmith as Aerosmth. Can I have it "Aerosmith Rules" instead of "Aerosmth Rules"? This will make it easier for people to reffer to me incase they didn't notice the missing "i". Thanks for your time. [[User:Aerosmth rules|Aerosmth rules]] 01:50, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
:"Aerosmth rules" → "Aerosmith Rules". Done. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 02:03, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

HRWiki:Changing username

Traveling Ham — Wed, 15 Mar 2006 19:30:03 GMT

Traveling Ham: /* Traveling Ham */

The user name users choose for themselves is no longer set in stone. On request, Bureaucrats can change user account settings and article histories such that all previous edits of a given user are attributed to the new name using [[Special:Renameuser]]. Note: you must make the request from the account you want renamed; anonymous requests (except users whose usernames begin with a lowercase letter and therefore cannot log in) are ignored for security reasons.
[[Category:HRWiki Maintenance]]
==Requesting a change==
# To change your user name, please make your request on this page.

== Instructions ==
Please follow the procedure carefully or your request will not be fulfilled.

#Check if the new name you want does not exist ([[Special:Listusers]]). '''Do not create an account under the new name'''. ''(If you already created the new account, don't worry. We can do some stuff and fix it, but it's still recommended that you don't.)''
#Sign in with the account that you want renamed.
#:''Of course, this is not possible if your account has a lowercase first letter. If you can't log in, then skip this step.''
#Add your request in the section below.
#If you are a sysop, please note this fact with your request so that the necessary changes can be made.
#Once your request is dealt with, all edits from your old account will be reattributed to your new account.
#You should check that the old account has been recreated and blocked to prevent someone else creating the account and impersonating you.
#:''This cannot be done in the case of usernames with a lowercase first letter, but they can no longer be registered so this isn't a problem.''
#Move and redirect your user page and talk page to the new name if it has not already been done.

==Current requests==

Listening to Strong Bad's last line in the e-mail, I keep hearing him saying "''Hope I can find my local '''bunman'''...''", whereas the transcript currently shows "''Hope I can find my local '''bunmaker'''...''" Can anyone else lend their ears and offer their opinion on what he's saying? It was reverted out of this [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=disconnected&oldid=285233] revision, so I just want some sort of consensus before changing th transcript.

== J-J-J-Jenny and The Bets ==

The way Strong bad said "Jenny" reminded me of the song, ''Benny and The Jets'' by [[Wikipedia:Elton_John|Elton John]]. Anybody else think this justifies a real world reference? [[User:PolarBoy|PolarBoy]]
:Not me, seems a stretch. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 17:37, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
::When I heard him, I was thinking of the song "867-5309 (Jenny)" by Tommy Tutone. Then again, maybe someone who has actually heard that song can confirm or deny it. - Andyroid

== A Million Yards? ==

Nobody has mentioned that 1 million yards = 3 million feet (1 yard = 3 feet right?) = 568.18 miles (1 mile = 5280 feet). You can take it from here (like by saying at 60 MPH it would take 9 hrs to complete, 90 hrs at 6MPH, 52 mins at speed of sound (at air i think it's 676MPH), and for light... well, 1.89 milliseconds). I'm still on wikivacation though. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 18:21, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

== Is Homestar's bread fixation becoming a running gag? ==

He not only has held Bread Sing-alongs (in Origins), but has also tried to pass off "Moldy Bread, Guys" as Cheat-cakes (in Do-Over). -SomeoneWhoHasn'tCreatedAnAccontYet
:Maybe. There is circumstantial evidence that [[helium|he only eats pork and beans]]. Then again, we haven't seen him try to eat bread. I wonder if we could tie this in with [[Stinkoman|Stinkoman's]] love of bread.
This is the third or fourth mention of cornbread- "Pawkheegan/Cornbread hour", "Mine name Cornbread"... and one other I can't think of. Running Gag'd?[[User:Trelawney|Trelawney]] 04:47, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

== Real-world reference ==

I believe "Regenerator" is a real-world reference to the low-to-no budget horror film "Re-animator," based off the works of H.P. Lovecraft. This is probably worth a brief reference on the page for this e-mail.

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089885/ IMDB link to "Re-Animator"]

Hi, I've been lurking for many months but this is my first attempt at actually working with Wiki. {{unsigned|Evil Jim|19:24, March 13, 2006 (UTC)}}

That's pretty likely, since "bad guy" in Re-animator has his head cut off and does all sorts of crazy things. -- Crowther 00:55, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

== Dizzy, anyone? ==

I've always thougth that SB's head looks like good old egg Dizzy (main character of adventure game starting off at 8-bits). He had even boxing floating boxing gloves and shoes (rayman-like, except rayman is much younger). But now when he says that "My head would probably get pretty dizzy just rollin' around all the time", I see this as a real-world reference to the Dizzy, who used somersault as jump, which happened all the time. [[User:Analytik|Analytik]] 20:49, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
:I tink it's just a referenceto normal eggs. In fact, that maks it barely a reference at all, since it's really not that specific. — {{User: Seriously/sig}} 20:57, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
:The head rolling for transportation is also reminiscent of Weebl and Bob (http://www.weebl.jolt.co.uk/archives.php), another high-volume online comic. However, one might argue that he would have had a hankering for pie and not breads. [[User:Tirian|Tirian]] 05:09, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
== Bosomest of Buddies ==

Hi, i tried to edit the real-world references to say that the term "bosomest of buddies" comes from the 1980 TV show "Bosom Buddies" starring Tom Hanks and Peter Scolari, and I got it up, but it was soon deleted. Why? It's true!
:It's a common phrase, not a reference to anything specific. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]
:Why not a reference to the Cole Porter song? Or - better yet - why not just a use of a common phrase in English, making it not very remarkable after all. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 21:43, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
:Come on, really. The TV show. It's a reference. The phrase has become common thanks to Tom and Peter.
::Really. Look up the song from the show <strike>"Anything Goes" by Porter</strike> Mame. (Oops, wrong show.) This has been a common phrase for at least a century. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 21:45, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
The title of the tv show is *itself* a reference to the common phrase. Just like the song in Mame. No reference![[User:Trelawney|Trelawney]]

== Cornbread ==

Does anybody think that Homestar selling cornbread could be related to Bubs calling himself Cornbread in A Decemberween Pageant.
:No. Cornbread is a common food. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 22:27, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
:Do you think Strong Bad's saying that he needs muscle is a reference to the [[Homestarloween Party]], in which Bubs said the car had muscle? If you answered yes to that question, I recommend a tour through [[STUFF]]. It would be instructive. Seriously, it's just cornbread. [[User:PolarBoy|PolarBoy]]
I didn't see this one, but on the bread thingy up above, I noted two other cornbread references. Is the third time the charm? (Find out next week! Same bat time, same bat place.)[[User:Trelawney|Trelawney]]

== 'Doom' reference? ==

Flying Head Bad seems to bear a strong resemblance to the Lost Souls from the Doom video game series. Unfortunately, I'm not sure this is worthy of be added.

I'm starting to think that the doom references are becoming a running gag. I seriously think its worthy. -Cyberdemon

Perhaps those repulsorlift rings are more common than I realize, but did anyone else think of the robot guy with the jetpack in the THX commercial with the cows? I did. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 23:52, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

== BIIIG Brother is watching you ==
Not trying to imply any connection, but I just wanted to mention that the Easter egg poster made me think of the poster described in the [first few paragraphs of ''1984'' http://www.online-literature.com/orwell/1984/1/]. —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 04:14, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
:''pssssst...'' See the STUFF for this toon. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:17, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
::Heh—yeah, I hadn't. Interesting. (Though for me what triggered the connection was not the slogan but the ''fact'' that it was a poster.) —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 04:21, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

== Egghead? ==

I might just be weird, but I think Homestar says "Headman" to the career advice head, rather than "Eggman."[[User:Trelawney|Trelawney]]

:Wow. I am ''never'' trusting your ears again. :P {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 05:08, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

I listened some more... Now I hear it. It was just that the E in egg sounded like it had a dropped H, and the G was pretty soft... whatever, I'm better now! [[User:Trelawney|Trelawney]]

==sunglasses and drink==
the shading in stronghead's drink is opposite of that in his sunglasses. looks cool. {{User:Csours/sig}} 05:22, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

==ghoul girl==
while homestar's speech impedement is most likely the reason hes says "put some meat on the bones, girl", it is also interesting that it sound like ghoul when he is talking to a disembodied head... {{User:Csours/sig}} 05:22, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

== ham head ==

something was bugging me about strongbody, and i finally figured it out, the bone sticking up out of his neck would only make sense if it was coming out of a major limb, ie a leg, or in this case, a ham... it looks nothing like a vertabrae.. {{User:Csours/sig}} 05:26, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Cartoons always do that to headless bodies. [[User:That crazy DumDe!|DumDe]]

== RuneScape ==

I know that this may be the biggest strecth you've ever heard/seen, but to anyone who has ever played [http://www.runescape.com RuneScape], please answer this question: '''Does the sound of the riot rocks hitting The Poopsmith's shield sound like the sound of a sword hitting someone in Runescape?''' Maybe I'm just hearing things, but I think it does. I immediately thought of RuneScape when I heard that sound. I know, I know, It's probably just a coincidence, it's probably just a generic sound effect, but I couldn't help mentioning the similarity. {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 13:48, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

''{Strong Bad struggles to read everything between "were" and the final "head". He also sings Jenny's name, as follows:}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Jennyyy... ''{high-pitched}'' Jenny! ''{speaking normally, typing}'' Um, was ''your'' head connected to ''your'' body when you wrote this email? I think I get the gist of it. ''{clears the screen}'' While my head and body are normally the bosomest of buddies, I suppose I could double my productivity if they were separated. Like, I could raise that ruckus I've been planning in two days instead of four! The plausibilities are endless!

''{Cut to The Field, where Strong Bad's disembodied head is speaking to Homestar Runner. A sign reads "THE CAREER ADVISOR IS REAL IN" with "REAL" being a separate removable word.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' My head could be off giving folks career advice...

''{The scene pans over and darkens, while an image of Strong Bad's headless body is throwing rocks from a box of "riot rocks" at The King of Town and The Poopsmith near the King's castle appears on the left. The Poopsmith is wearing whatsit-covered armor and holding a giant shield with the King's face on it, which is blocking the rocks. A bar separates the two different scenes.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' ...whilest my body is rioting against the municipality!

''{The body's scene darkens while the head's scene brightens.}''

'''STRONG BAD'S HEAD:''' Maybe this running business just isn't for you. Have you ever considered the making and selling of tiny breads?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Homestar Bunmaker, eh? Me likey, me likey! Thanks, Eggman! ''{turns away, but then turns back}'' Oh, and... ''{throws coins}'' why don't you get yourself something to eat? Put some meat on them bones, girl!

''{Homestar walks off. The body's screen vanishes while the head's pans over a ways to reveal that the ruckus the body is making is actually right next to his head. Strong Bad's head turns toward his body.}''

'''STRONG BAD'S HEAD:''' That's some nice revolutin', there, body, but, uh, maybe we should spread out. Like, more.

''{The body gives the head a thumbs-up. Cut to a closeup of Strong Bad's head wearing his [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]] sunglasses, on what appears to be a beach. The head is sitting on a picnic blanket and resting against a tree trunk, and a drink with three umbrellas is in front of him. A seagull can be heard in the background. The camera zooms out slowly.}''

'''STRONG BAD'S HEAD:''' Ah, livin' the sleazy life!

''{The camera cuts back to show that Strong Bad's head is actually alone on a small island.}''

'''STRONG BAD'S HEAD:''' ''{turning back}'' Hey, cabana boy! My drink needs more umbrellas! What kind of deserted island is this, anyway?

''{Cut to Club Technochocolate, where Strong Bad's body is dancing with Bubs.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Meanwhile, my body could be off putting its considerably reduced weight on it down at the cloob!

'''BUBS:''' Dang, Strong Body! Without all that extra head ballast, your moves are twicely fresh! Twicely fresh!

''{Cut to an image of Strong Bad's head rolling across The Field.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' My head would probably get pretty dizzy just rollin' around all the time. I might have to rig up some kind of repulsor lift!

''{The camera cuts back, and the head begins to hover through some disc on the bottom of it.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Naw, scratch that. I'm gonna need something with a little more... muscle.

''{The disc disappears and is replaced by flaming jets on the top of its head.}''

'''STRONG BAD'S HEAD:''' Oh, yeah! That's what I'm talkin' about! ''{leans back, as though revving up}'' Reer! Reeeeer! ''{starts zipping all over the place quickly}'' Rooow! Rooow! Rooo! Reer! ''{imitating brakes as it stops}'' Reeeeee! Whoa! This mess rules! I can finally win the million-yard dash! ''{zips forward again}'' Roooo...

''{Cut to a finish line, which the head zips through quickly. Then cut to the other side, where Coach Z is holding a stopwatch.}''

'''STRONG BAD'S HEAD:''' ''{imitating brakes}'' Reeeee! Oh, yes! I beat Homestar!

'''COACH Z:''' Sorry, Head Bad, but you was the only one competin' this year! Old 'Strammy's gone and quit the runnin' business!

''{Homestar, wearing a new hat that reads "BUNMAKER" and holding a box of "TINY BREADS" jumps up right behind Strong Bad's head.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cooornbreeeeead! I got cornbread here! Dinner rolls! Cornbread! Everybody wants a bun! Lemme hear that dinner roll!

''{Cut to a blank white screen. Strong Bad's body walks on from stage right, while the unaltered head rolls on from stage left.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Maybe one day, we'd both learn to regenerate...

''{The head gains an arm, a green leg, an spirally arm, and an extremely thin robotic-looking leg. The body gains an odd growth colored to look like Strong Bad's head in its chest.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ...creating two perfectly-formed Strong Bad specimens!

'''STRONG BAD'S HEAD:''' ''{in a scratchy voice that also sounds nothing like Strong Bad}'' I think you're ''{chuckles}'' cute! [[#Footnote|[1]]]

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

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Eeeugh! Go away, head-nub and nub-head. Those things look straight out of the creature shop from some low-to-no budget horror film. Maybe chopping my head off isn't such a good idea.

''{Cut back to show The Cheat standing near the computer, with a guillotine nearby.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{dejected The Cheat noises, walks off}''

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

HRWiki:Changing username

Traveling Ham — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 17:49:40 GMT

Traveling Ham: /* Traveling Ham */

The user name users choose for themselves is no longer set in stone. On request, Bureaucrats can change user account settings and article histories such that all previous edits of a given user are attributed to the new name using [[Special:Renameuser]]. Note: you must make the request from the account you want renamed; anonymous requests (except users whose usernames begin with a lowercase letter and therefore cannot log in) are ignored for security reasons.
[[Category:HRWiki Maintenance]]
==Requesting a change==
# To change your user name, please make your request on this page.

== Instructions ==
Please follow the procedure carefully or your request will not be fulfilled.

#Check if the new name you want does not exist ([[Special:Listusers]]). '''Do not create an account under the new name'''. ''(If you already created the new account, don't worry. We can do some stuff and fix it, but it's still recommended that you don't.)''
#Sign in with the account that you want renamed.
#:''Of course, this is not possible if your account has a lowercase first letter. If you can't log in, then skip this step.''
#Add your request in the section below.
#If you are a sysop, please note this fact with your request so that the necessary changes can be made.
#Once your request is dealt with, all edits from your old account will be reattributed to your new account.
#You should check that the old account has been recreated and blocked to prevent someone else creating the account and impersonating you.
#:''This cannot be done in the case of usernames with a lowercase first letter, but they can no longer be registered so this isn't a problem.''
#Move and redirect your user page and talk page to the new name if it has not already been done.

HRWiki:Changing username

Traveling Ham — Sun, 12 Mar 2006 20:42:18 GMT

Traveling Ham: /* Traveling Ham */

The user name users choose for themselves is no longer set in stone. On request, Bureaucrats can change user account settings and article histories such that all previous edits of a given user are attributed to the new name using [[Special:Renameuser]]. Note: you must make the request from the account you want renamed; anonymous requests (except users whose usernames begin with a lowercase letter and therefore cannot log in) are ignored for security reasons.
[[Category:HRWiki Maintenance]]
==Requesting a change==
# To change your user name, please make your request on this page.

== Instructions ==
Please follow the procedure carefully or your request will not be fulfilled.

#Check if the new name you want does not exist ([[Special:Listusers]]). '''Do not create an account under the new name'''. ''(If you already created the new account, don't worry. We can do some stuff and fix it, but it's still recommended that you don't.)''
#Sign in with the account that you want renamed.
#:''Of course, this is not possible if your account has a lowercase first letter. If you can't log in, then skip this step.''
#Add your request in the section below.
#If you are a sysop, please note this fact with your request so that the necessary changes can be made.
#Once your request is dealt with, all edits from your old account will be reattributed to your new account.
#You should check that the old account has been recreated and blocked to prevent someone else creating the account and impersonating you.
#:''This cannot be done in the case of usernames with a lowercase first letter, but they can no longer be registered so this isn't a problem.''
#Move and redirect your user page and talk page to the new name if it has not already been done.

==Current requests==

::Can I just have the contributions from bkmlb and Bkmlb. transfered to Bkmlb? I don't care '''deeply''' but it would be nice.--{{User:bkmlb/sig}} 19:44, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

:::Please see step number 1 above. Since you already created the account for Bkmlb, I'd have to delete the Bkmlb account in the database in order to move bkmlb there. I can't make any promises, but we could try it if you want.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 19:56, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

::Bwa ha ha ha! I even managed to keep the edits you've made as Mibluvr13. Okay, now, just for consistency's sake, I'm going to block [[User:mibluvr13]] so no one will ever be able to register with that name. (I know they can't now with the lowercase thing, but maybe that will change someday. Who knows?) Thanks for being the test case.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 21:14, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

:Thanks! I've even got my watchlist back. W00tness! -- [[User:Mibluvr13|Mibluvr13]] 21:17, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

::Very good. And I can't block [[User:mibluvr13]]. No one will be able to register for that name for the same reason I can't block it. Works well enough, I suppose. Now don't forget the rest of the steps.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 21:20, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

My old username was ackicantthinkofaname, with the displayed name of breadtangle, however, I would now like to switch to the new username of breadtangle. However, because of my old displayed name this isn't possible, and I can't log in to fix it because of the lowercase first letter. Could ackicantthinkofaname be changed to breadtangle, or if not possible, can you remove the displayed name?

:I need you to answer two and only two questions:
:#What was your old username? (This would be what you used to type in the "Username" field on the [[Special:Userlogin]] page.)
:#What do you want your new username to be? (This can not have a lowercase first letter.)

HRWiki:Changing username

Traveling Ham — Sun, 12 Mar 2006 20:41:46 GMT

Traveling Ham: /* Current requests */

The user name users choose for themselves is no longer set in stone. On request, Bureaucrats can change user account settings and article histories such that all previous edits of a given user are attributed to the new name using [[Special:Renameuser]]. Note: you must make the request from the account you want renamed; anonymous requests (except users whose usernames begin with a lowercase letter and therefore cannot log in) are ignored for security reasons.
[[Category:HRWiki Maintenance]]
==Requesting a change==
# To change your user name, please make your request on this page.

== Instructions ==
Please follow the procedure carefully or your request will not be fulfilled.

#Check if the new name you want does not exist ([[Special:Listusers]]). '''Do not create an account under the new name'''. ''(If you already created the new account, don't worry. We can do some stuff and fix it, but it's still recommended that you don't.)''
#Sign in with the account that you want renamed.
#:''Of course, this is not possible if your account has a lowercase first letter. If you can't log in, then skip this step.''
#Add your request in the section below.
#If you are a sysop, please note this fact with your request so that the necessary changes can be made.
#Once your request is dealt with, all edits from your old account will be reattributed to your new account.
#You should check that the old account has been recreated and blocked to prevent someone else creating the account and impersonating you.
#:''This cannot be done in the case of usernames with a lowercase first letter, but they can no longer be registered so this isn't a problem.''
#Move and redirect your user page and talk page to the new name if it has not already been done.

==Current requests==

:You're bound to show up through HRWiki; it's not like we're remote. And no, your username can not be deleted. — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 22:50, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

The user name users choose for themselves is no longer set in stone. On request, Bureaucrats can change user account settings and article histories such that all previous edits of a given user are attributed to the new name using [[Special:Renameuser]]. Note: you must make the request from the account you want renamed; anonymous requests (except users whose usernames begin with a lowercase letter and therefore cannot log in) are ignored for security reasons.

==Requesting a change==
# To change your user name, please make your request on this page.

#:''This cannot be done in the case of usernames with a lowercase first letter, but they can no longer be registered so this isn't a problem.''

== How do I upload a song? ==

I have a wav & mp3 of the Stinko Man K 20X6 theme and I want to poast it, so..... how do I?

Do I need to have on the net somwhere already or can I just upload it from my CPU?

:''You'' can't. '''DISCLAIMER:''' Only registered users who are logged on can upload files. However, I have a pretty good feeling that those particular files would just be deleted as
*#Files of type ".wav" are HUGE. I've been able to reduce a 3.15 MB wav to 444KB by converting it to a 256 kbps mp3. Wavs have to be around four times that bit rate before they are really even listenable. Bear in mind that I have some pretty low standards as to what constitutes "listenable." Even mp3s are still kind of bulky when compared with OGGs.
*#You'd be stepping on TBC's toes with regards to copyright and whatnot because, somebody correct me if I'm mistaken, but that's already available to download at http://www.videlectrix.com.

[[brianrietta|Sorry to crush your hopes and dreams]] {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 07:45, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Well I am a registered user.

The theme I have is the one that they put lyrics to in Japanese Cartoon; "Challang and fighting and fighting and challange toniiiight...."

But I have one question; What the crap is an ".ogg" file
and how do you make one?

I'm sorry, but I've never been down wit' ogg.
So please fill me in. {{unsigned|OX|16:35, 25 January 2006}}

:OGG is like MP3, only that it's [[Wikipedia:Open source|open source]]. That is, anybody can make a program that makes OGG's. There are several programs that encode OGG, some easier to use than others, but I can't think of any right now. Again if you're considering uploading the entire song please be aware of the points made above. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 16:14, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

'''NOTICE!''' I just found a way to make Windows Media Player play .ogg files. http://www.illiminable.com/ogg/ You'll still need to associate .ogg files with WMP but it's great. The program that I normally use to open internet media is now .ogg-capable! {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 03:30, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

Is there a way to remove an icon next to a link outside HRWiki? {{User:Tampo/sig}}

:Are you refering to the little images that show up on Firefox for links to homestarrunner.com, yahoo.com, videlectrix.com, and thorax.corp?

Because if you want to get rid of the arrow for a link like [http://www.kilroy.x10hosting.com/index.php?title=User:Thunderbird_L17 this], use this code:

Hi guys, given the interesting request, I'd like to comment on something that's been on my mind for quite a while: although i find it neat to have link pictures next to H*R links etc., I find them more of a hassle than a benefit for various reasons:
#IE users do not see the links, as such, IE and firefox users will see different versions of the pages and sometimes, these minute differences can and have caused display problems in tables and such that only firefox users can notice.
#There are many times when the link picture itself does not render itself correctly (my guess is because it is used as part of the "background" property:
#:like I mentioned before it does not render well in tables, (they used to not have a clear background but that's been since fixed -- and example for firefox users can be found [[HRWiki:Tour/Halloween_Fairstival|here]]),
#:and if you want, for some weird reason, to have really small links, (like this [[User:Stux|St]][[HR:|u]][[User_talk:Stux|x]]), it won't render as you want it to,
#: and if, for some reason you wanted to plainlink the link it doesn't work: (at least not for me)[[User:Stux|St]][[HR:|u]][[User_talk:Stux|x]] or [[User:Stux|St]][http://www.homestarrunner.com u][[User_talk:Stux|x]] it looks messed up. (This is just an example that I came up with, it isn't anything I intend to use for my sig :-p ;) )

[[Image:HRLinks.png|thumb|view from firefox]]
So, I am not suggesting that we get rid of this, I kinda liked the feature, but I'd really like it if:
# *everybody* could see the feature, and more than that,
#anyone could have an easy way of turning the feature off for a specific link ''without'' having to edit their monobook (if they really don't like it then they're welcomed to).
#Moreover, if the picture was actually treated as a "character" instead of a background element, perhaps it might work better in tables and stuff.

Any thoughts, ideas, comments, techincal know-hows, opinions? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 16:08, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

For the benefit of IE users everywhere, I have included a [[:Image:HRLinks.png|screenshot]] of the comment above so you may see what i'm talking about. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 16:16, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

== Imageshack ==

How do I link to images on Imageshack? I'm having troubles. When I wanna link to an image on Imageshack, it comes out as a blue text link, not the picture. HOW IN THE HECK DO I DO THIS?? Whew. {{User:Homfrog/sig}} 12:48, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

:You need to type in the url of the image on your page without using <nowiki>[</nowiki>external brackets<nowiki>]</nowiki>. — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 13:14, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

== Easter egg image ==

Can you put an image on a page and when someone clicks on it it will go somewhere (like an easter egg)? {{User:404/sig}} 23:48, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
:If your question is '''MAY''' you add an easter egg to your user page then I suggest you read [[HRWiki:User space]]. If you would like to know ''how'' to do it after you've read the aforementioned page, I suggest you read [[Help:Link]]. The Help button on the left is a great resource on how to do stuff. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 00:33, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
::This is a few days old, I know, but I just inadvertently found your answer. RJMT has one in her sig and a discussion about how to do it is on [[User_talk:RJMT|her talk page]].

== Sig image bug ==

I noticed a problem displaying a sig under certain conditions (namely 1280x768 but only b/c of the way the text wrapped at that resolution) and placed a note and screenshot [[User_talk:Invisible_Robot_Fish/Projects#Strange|here]]. If anybody know what's going on that'll be great! --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 14:42, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

:It's not a bug. He's [[User:Nerd42/sig|using]] non-breaking (<tt>&nbsp;</tt>) spaces. -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 19:13, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
::Oh, I see what you mean, wouldn't then this be a Firefox rendering error? I guess I'm not quite clear what the <tt>&nbsp;</tt> rendering rules are. If it's one chunk of text, then it should be wrapper properly, shouldn't it? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 22:27, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

:::If rendered properly, non-breaking spaces should not break a line. From the looks of it, Firefox is correctly rendering them. -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 22:35, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

::::I guess my question is: shouldn't the non-breaking space be treated as a regular letter, and so the whole chunk as a regular word? So normal word-wrapping rules should apply and as a result then entire chunk be wrapped to the next line? I did a thorough check and IE seems to do that (wrap the text properly) but not Firefox (firefox only wraps the word "Nerd42" and ignores the other chars when considering the wrap). --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 16:04, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

:::::Taking a closer look, I'm guessing it's the "<tt>style="white-space: nowrap"</tt> that's doing it then. -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 01:04, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
::::::I tried your suggestion as you can see [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=259581&oldid=259580 here] but instead it broke the [[User:Nerd42/sig|sig]], despite the <tt>&nbsp;</tt> being a ''non-breaking'' space (it did this in both IE and netscape). Both browsers seem to be breaking this "non-breaking" space. It seems to me that the no-wrap then is being interpreted correctly by Firefox but not explorer. But my issue is now then why have a "non-breaking" space that will be broken? Ok I think i've been repetitive enough. :) --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:00, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

== Recent Changes ==

I found that the ! means "not yet patrolled", m means "minor edit" and n means "new page". But what does a boldface entry in Recent Changes or my Watch List mean? [[User:Qermaq|Qermaq]] 21:31, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
:Bold on recent changes means the edited page is on your watchlist. Bold on your watchlist means you have not seen the changes that edit caused. {{User:Some HSR themed username/sig}} 21:34, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
::I see. Sometimes, though, they stay bold in the watchlist after I look. I'll have to see if I can figure that out. Thanks. [[User:Qermaq|Qermaq]] 21:52, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
:::That would be if they were changed again in some way after you looked at them, or if you only click the "diff" button. You have to actually view the normal page, without showing changes at the top, for the '''Bold''' to go away. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 21:54, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

== Song is wrong ==
I know that in the lyrics for experimental film the word is not infinity is eternity so i changed it to what it is supposed to be, but every time i change it, it changes back to infinity why is that?
:Well, all the lyrics sites (including This Might Be a Wiki, the official They Might Be Giants wiki) say "infinity", and it sure sounds like infinity to me. {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 03:47, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Going back to the experimental film thing I have listen closely to the song a lot of times and i can tell that it say eternity, maybe if you listen with your ears you can tell that it says eternity not infinity please change.

:The Google search for "[http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22the+color+of+infinity%22+%22experimental+film%22&btnG=Google+Search infinity]" yields ~1900 hits; the Google search for "[http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22the+color+of+eternity%22+%22experimental+film%22&btnG=Search eternity]" yields ~ 30 hits. Search "Experimental Film" on iTunes, preview the song from ''The Spine Hits the Road'' to hear an alternative variation, with a clearer sound of "infinity". —[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 03:56, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

== Problems in IE7b2 ==

[http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/wikipedia/phase3/skins/MonoBook.php?r1=1.81&r2=1.82 IE7 PNG Fix]
I believe the only thing necessary to fix this bug is to change one line of code that starts with:
<!--[if IE]>
to instead begin with:
<!--[if lt IE 7]>
:It's probably not worth making a change like this until IE7 is officially released. Keep in mind that it's still in beta, and they're still trying to work out all the remaining bugs. {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 20:57, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

== Transcript ==
'''STRONG BAD:''' In the United States alone, someone checks their email every three seconds. This is one of them.

''{reading}''

<blockquote class="compy email">Can you make a comic about my friends? 
Tey are totally obsessed with you. 
Their names are Virginia, Joy, 
Kristen, and Jennifer. I would really 
appriciate it. 
 
Thank You. 
 
Brittany</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad mumbles over the four girls' names instead of reading them. He also pronounces "Tey" as it is written and "appriciate" "a-preek-ee-ate".}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Well, I'd really appriciate ''{same as in the email}'' it if you proofread your emails before you sent them to me! So, a comic about your little friends, huh? Well, okay. I'll see what I can do!

''{He gets out pencil and starts drawing something. Some music starts playing.}''


{{TGS1 Transcript}}

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Wow, Brittany! That turned out pretty good! I should maybe make some crappy xeroxes of that thing and sell it over at Bubs'. Or at least some snooty independent record store. ''{stops typing}'' Okay, so, that's it! No more Strong Bad Emails. Nah, I'm just kiddin... maybe.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

== Easter Eggs ==
*When Strong Bad reads, "I would really appriciate it" you can click on the names of the girls to bring up various shapes that are supposed to resemble states. When you click on "Virginia", the actual map of the state of Virginia pops up.
*When the "Girls' States" appear, you can click on the top of each one to show it in its underwear, just as in [[weird dream]].
*When the headstones appear, you can click on What's Her Face's to have Strong Bad enter the comic.
:''{Strong Bad walks on from offsceen}''
:'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa, hey there Cheerleader. You looking so good. You want to go take a ride with me up to Checker's...or Rally's...or Sonic Burger? Whatever you guys got here.
*At the very end you can click on the words, "independent record store" to bring up a part showing the comic for sale in some record store. Funny banter going on in the background:
:'''CUSTOMER''': ''[presumably Mike]'': 'Sup, man?
:'''CLERK''': ''[presumably Matt]'': Hey, how ya doin'?
:'''CUSTOMER''': Pretty good.
:'''CLERK''': Good to see you back in.
:'''CUSTOMER''': Yeah, did you, uh... did you listen to this yet?
:'''CLERK''': You know, I have. Yeah. I wasn't into it. I couldn't get into it.
:'''CUSTOMER''': Huh. I thought... I was kinda hoping it'd be....
:'''CLERK''': Yeah, you know, they were—the whole thing's in 4/4, and...um...yeah. So, I just thought it wasn't for me. I liked their solo stuff better, you know?
:'''CUSTOMER''': Yeah. Well what about, uh, what about their guitars? D'ya think they're all, like, in tune? Like the...the frets?
:'''CLERK''': Yeah, the frets are in tune. The frets they're using are...are B-modal. But, uh, 'cuz they just have the same producer.
:'''CUSTOMER''': Al Beno.
:'''CLERK''': Al Beno.
:'''CUSTOMER''': Right.
:'''CLERK''': Yeah.
:'''CUSTOMER''': Yeah, I really liked their last album.
:'''CLERK''': Yeah, their old stuff is great! Have you ever seen them live?
:'''CUSTOMER''': Yeah. Yeah.
:'''CLERK''': I mean... I saw, I saw 'em... I saw 'em, like, twice... Actually, uhm, uh, last night, I saw them.
:'''CUSTOMER''': Yeah, I saw them... I saw them earlier this morning. Yeah.
:'''CLERK''': Oh.
:'''CUSTOMER''': Like, four times.
:'''CLERK''': Oh.
:'''CUSTOMER''': Yah. I mean I've been a big, I've been a bigger fan than you for a while, I mean...
:'''CLERK''': Yeah, well...
:'''CUSTOMER''': For a lot longer probably, too...
:'''CLERK''': Well, no no...
:'''CUSTOMER''': Well, I mean, I dunno...
:'''CLERK''': Yeah.

== Fun Facts ==
===Trivia===
*According to [[The Brothers Chaps]] in the DVD commentary, this email was actually sent to their email address and not Strong Bad's.

===Remarks===
*When Strong Bad enters the comic, he doesn't have the blue notebook lines on him.

===Inside References===
*The tune that plays while Strong Bad is drawing the comic is similar to the [[A Jumping Jack Contest]] theme.

===Real-World References===
*The song playing in the background of the record store bit is [[Wikipedia:Sonic Youth|Sonic Youth's]] [[Wikipedia:Teenage Riot|"Teenage Riot"]] from the album [[Wikipedia:Daydream Nation|Daydream Nation]].
*In the Easter egg, a number of albums are visible:

*"Al Beno" is most likely a reference to [[Wikipedia:Steve Albini|Steve Albini]], the famous producer, who was not actually associated with Daydream Nation, as well as a reference to albinism.

*Strong Bad's opening comments are a reference to the closing lines of ''[[IMDB:tt0040636|The Naked City]]'' ("There are eight million stories in the naked city.

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

'''MIKE:''' Hi.

'''MATT:''' Hi there. It's Matt.

'''MIKE:''' It's Miiike. Hah-hah.

'''MATT:''' T-taste.

'''MIKE:''' All right.

'''MATT:''' Good taste. So, uh, little-known fact, this email was actually sent to the Brothers Chaps address, ''not'' Strong Bad, uh, and Strong Bad, stole it from us. You kno—

'''MIKE:''' He Shanghaied it.

'''MATT:''' He Shanghaied it, that's what I said last time.

'''MIKE:''' But we were—we had to redo the commentary. The ''original'' take of the commentary Matt said that we Shanghaied it.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. But then Mike cussed a swear later so we had to redo it.

'''MIKE:''' All right, that's enough, I'm ''outta here''.

''{door opening and closing}''

'''MATT:''' Mike really just closed the door and is still sitting next to me.

'''MIKE:''' I'm ''gone'', in the next room!

'''MATT:''' All right, so, let's talk about, uh, Strong Bad's voice here. It sounds much more like Strong Bad at this point.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' When he's being the girls.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, if you watch this and then go to your computer and watch, maybe Teen Girl Squad Episode 6...

'''MATT:''' They sound a lot—

'''MIKE:''' You'll notice a difference.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. And he's like, he calls—

'''MIKE:''' No mouth! No mouth!

'''MATT:''' And he calls So And So Kristen. ''She'' calls so and so Kristen.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, they've never been—do they even call themselves their... What's Her—oh, I think they—

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' —call her What's Her Face.

'''MATT:''' What's Her Face, you have to go to a junkyard.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Umm... ''{pause}'' and here comes an Easter egg. You get to see this for ''free'' on the DVD.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, most people on the website have to click a gravestone over there to see this and...this is just how much we love you guys.

'''MATT:''' And this is Strong Bad referring to how we don't understand how those three fast-food chains can all exist and be so exactly alike. Especially—

'''MIKE:''' I haven't seen a Rally in a long time. I don't know, I guess there's just not many in Atlanta.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. But Checkers and Rally's—

'''MIKE:''' But there's not enough Sonics! The closest Sonic is, like, 20 miles away from us.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' I like their shakes.

'''MATT:''' ''{quickly}'' That caused a lot of concern.

=== Easter Egg Commentary Transcript ===
'''MIKE:''' So here we are in the independent record store we created in our apartment, uhhh, at about 5 AM—

'''MATT:''' Yep

'''MIKE:''' the night we made this email.

'''MATT:''' Yep. Uh, that thing is, that thing is—the rack that the comics are in is just the bottom of a weird little CD rack I had.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah, that's right.

'''MATT:''' But it looks kinda like some kind of magazine rack, doesn't it?

'''MIKE:''' It does.

'''MATT:''' We improvised. I used a—a marker, a magic marker. I improvise—

'''MIKE:''' ''{interrupting}'' And it looks like a cardboarded box was used to ''{Matt starts laughing}'' house the 45, or 7 inch, records.

'''MATT:''' And there's, over on the far left, you can just barely make out the beginnings of a comic—it is a legitimate comic book box that I have that has some comics in it.

'''MIKE:''' Oh yeah.

'''MATT:''' But I think we just cropped it out. ''{pause}'' You know, so we're just obviously making fun of college people and all their... If you walk up...we have Criminal Records here. Wax and Fax both. Any given day, you walk in there. Book Nook as well, that—they'll be talking about jazz. It won't be about indie rock, but they'll be having nerdy nerdy conversations about jazz and trying to one-up each other. Like ''{mimics Super Mario Bros. 1-Up sound effect}''.

'''MIKE''' ''{mimics Super Mario Bros. 1-Up sound effect as well}''

'''MATT:''' You know, a one-up.

'''MIKE:''' It's like a green mushroom.

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' Uhm... uh, over there on the far right is The Day of Bob and Lump, Issue... I think it's the Halloween Issue, I don't know which it i—bye.
