Deliberately Poor English

From Homestar Runner Wiki

Poor English is often deliberately used in the Homestar Runner universe.

Appearances

• Email english paper - Strong Bad spells English as "Englilish" in the report's title, ridiculing the e-mail sender's spelling of the word.
• Email personal favorites - One of the sayings by the Grape Nuts Robot during the Easter egg at the end is "Now spell, 'Carp for brains'." It really meant to say, "Crap for brains."
• Population: Tire - The game's premise contains several instances of poor English, including "YOU ARE SOLDIER!" and "YOU ONE ARE OF BRAVE FEW."
• Email caffeine - When the caffeine effects start to wear off, Strong Sad says, "...salad...salad...as a rock?"
• 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 poor English, such as "My stummy hurts." (pluralized as "Our stummies hurts."), "Keep try.", and "Start Play."
• Vector Strong Bad often uses poorly-translated lines like "YOUR HEAD A SPLODE!" He also pronounces "hello" as "HELLOTE" (seen in the email alternate universe).
• Sundae Drivin' - As seen in the email redesign, it includes quotes like "CHERRY GET!" and "YOUR JAMES OVER."
• Strong Bad's title at Crazy Go Nuts University is "Prinicpal".
