So what am I supposed to do here? Hmm? No! Really? Well, OK, if you say so....

Homestar Runner

I discovered Homestar Runner in July 2002. The first thing I ever saw was Everybody To The Limit and was hooked. Since then I've visited often. Weekly, even. I've seen just about everything on the site at least twice. For that reason, I am not permitted to care for young children.

My First Strong Bad Email

Here it is. Sent Tuesday, July 16, 2002, at 11:17 PM EST. Subject: Email To Strong Bad.

I got the standard "Thanks for your freakin email. I hope it's not stupid." response, and of course it was not one of the thousands used. Meh.

My H*R number

My cousin is a guitarist who worked with TMBG. (Factory Showroom era.) The current TMBG had TBC do a video for "Experimental Film". So my H*R number is 3. What's your H*R number? Share that in talk!

Who am I?

Which Homestar Runner character are you?
this quiz was made by jurjyfrort

It's hosted on Geocities, which is pretty slow and clanky, so if the pic doesn't show, wait till the beginning of the month!

Quotes

Everyone seems to have favorite quotes. Here, in no particular order or degree of accuracy, are mine.

  • STRONG BAD: You're not Ali. You're not even... literate. (sisters)
  • HOMESTAR RUNNER Don't ask me why.... pump-uh-nickwe and why.... (origins)
  • BUBS Shinin' up a chicken in the mornin', mornin'... (lunch special)
  • STRONG BAD: Come on and get in the boat, fish! Come on and get in the boat, fish fish! (lures & jigs)
  • STRONG SAD AND HOMESTAR: I really got. I really gotta pee. I really got. I really gotta pee pee. (extra plug}
  • BUBS: Why are you trying to get me to say "sbu"?
STRONG BAD: THERE! You said it! Now you gotta give me a free lunch special!
BUBS: No, no, no. Getting me to say my name backwards minus the B just makes me lose my super power!
STRONG BAD: What super power?
BUBS: Being able to fly.
STRONG BAD: You can fly?!
BUBS: Well... Not anymore I can't. (lunch special)
  • STRONG BAD: Hey, man, are ketchup bombs real?
BUBS: Not yet! (funny)

Homestar Runner Wiki

HRWiki:Userboxes

I've been active on the Wiki since early February 2006 or so. I'm a Wiki n00b. Still figuring out this danged business.

I'm so sorry for what I done!

I've done only a few major things so far.

I also created

Other than that, I just wander around, figuring stuff out as I go.

Cool People

I hear a lot about 'cool people'. I am never mentioned among them. Therefore, I'm a gonna consider myself the King Of Wiki. Doo-hoo-hoo!

Using <span>

I see a lot of folks don't get how <span> is used. <span> is an empty element, it does nothing by itself. But add the attribute style, and you can do all sorts of cool things.

The syntax you need is simple.

<span style="property: value">Text</span>

Such as:

<span style="color: green">This is green.</span> = This is green.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">This is Times New Roman. Note the single quotes when the font is more than one word.</span> = This is Times New Roman. Note the single quotes when the font is more than one word.

<span style="font-variant: small-caps">This is in small caps.</span> = This is in small caps.

<span style="font-size: 150%">This is pretty big.</span> = This is pretty big.

You can declare multiple properties too with a semicolon, like this:

<span style="color: orange; font-variant: small-caps">This is orange smallcaps.</span> = This is orange smallcaps.

Just for starters. If you want more, ask in talk.

My Screen Name

What does Qermaq mean? That's all you people ask me!

How I come up with it? How YOU come up with "Thunderbird"? By the way, don't make me call you that. It's not a good administrator name!

(I think good ole helpful TBird can take the joke! A joke, I say!)

Chords

I've transcribed the chords to different town, see it here. A few days after i did this, I found it was also on the TMBG wiki, but this one's a tad more accurate (heh heh). I have a lead sheet (melody, lyrics, chords) as well (PDF format); lemme know if you want it.

Maybe I'll do more if there's interest. Or even if not. Let me know in talk.

And...

You can email me if you want (but I might not read it, so leave a Talk message if you need me to see it).

That's all for now, I guess. You want more? Ask for it on my talk page. See you later!
