Oh, check me out, it's the front of my head!

Behind the set of a main page. Everything is flipped around, since we're seeing it from the back, and ink marks where all the buttons are.

Icon: Piece of wood

Page title: "Backstage Pass!"

Date: September 19, 2005

Toons — Coach Z pops up with a clapboard and says, "Main Page number 23, take one, action!" Homestar delays saying "Toons" until after he's gone.
Games — A piece of wood falls off of the set, striking Homestar on the head.
Characters — On the first mouse-over, Strong Bad jumps up and says "Oh, check me out, it's the front of my head!" while facing away from the user. On the second mouse-over, Strong Bad jumps up and says "Oh, check me out, it's the back of my head!" while facing toward the user.
Downloads — The Cheat falls in front of Homestar and walks off.
Store — A Homestar clone walks in front of Homestar and says, "'Sup, man?" Homestar replies, "'Sup?"
E-mail — A piece of wood, presumably painted with Strong Sad's head on the opposite side, floats across the screen with the words "Wear a Bikini!" written on it. Strong Sad's arms hold up Strong Sad's Tape Player and hit "Play," causing it to say (in Strong Sad's voice) "I'm the floating head of dooooom!!"

Fun Facts

Unlike most of the other characters, The Cheat faces toward the screen on this page, meaning that if it was being seen from the "front," The Cheat would be facing backwards.
The way The Cheat falls and the sounds he makes may be a reference to the "Kick The Cheat" mini-game used to sell the The Cheat plush toy.
When the Homestar clone walks by, he appears from in front of the buttons (for the intented viewer position). This is unusual, no characters except Homestar usually overlap the buttons in the background.
