The Cheat's computer
How can we tell it's a Core Duo. Couldn't it just be a G5 with the iSight camera?Geshmalder 14:38, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
- Technically, you're right, although the window of time between when the iSight was added to the iMac and the Core Duo was released was relatively narrow. The safest approach would be to just call it an iMac. Anyway, it's likely that TBC didn't have one in mind more than the other when they made this toon. I'ma go remove the Core Duo part (most readers probably don't know the difference anyway).

The Cheat has always used an iMac. He just moved to a NEW iMac. Shouldn't that be how this is phrased?
- Ooh good point. Maybe more information is better to distinguish between the three models. Trey56 19:33, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
The echo
What's the deal with the echoing?
- I think it's to emphasize the emptiness of the room (like a cavern) as part of the joke that Strong Bad Emails hadn't been checked in nearly eight weeks. — It's dot com 18:28, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

"High & Dry" Real World Reference
I think the following Real World Reference should be added:
- The dryer setting of "High & Dry" may be a reference to Radiohead's song by the same name, or Def Leppard's album High 'n' Dry.
TBC often make musical references, and have even referenced Def Leppard before in Peasant's Quest. I see no reason to believe this isn't also a musical reference. Afterall, "high and dry" as in "stranded" really makes no sense for laundry.

- TTATOT (it could be one of many things). Plus, "high and dry" is a common phrase. — It's dot com 18:28, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
"Sundae Driving" real world reference
Yes, this is nitpicky, but I don't see why this would be a Beatles reference. "Sunday driving" was a commonly used expression long before "Day Tripper."

Anyone Notice?
- Did anyone notice the line "I was just thinking how bored I am with your butt, and" disappeared before Strong Bad cleared the screen on the Lappy?
