Bad English this is.

Poorly-translated English, or Engrish, is often used intentionally in the Homestar Runner universe.

Appearances

  • Thy Dungeonman - If you beat the game, the game gives you a "congraturation".
  • Email Videro Games - Strong Bad complains about difficult video games that only reward you with "a hearty CONGRATURATION!"
  • Stinkoman 20X6 - This game has many instances of Engrish, such as "My stummy hurts." (in plural as "Our stummies hurts.") and "Keep try."
  • Vector Strong Bad often uses poorly-translated lines like "YOUR HEAD A SPLODE!"
  • Game in SBEmail redesign includes quotes like "CHERRRY GET" and "YOUR GAMES OVER."
