Fhqwhgads
From Homestar Runner Wiki
Fhqwhgads, the shortened version of "fhqwhgadshgnsdhjsdbkhsdabkfabkveybvf", was the signature in the Strong Bad Email "i love you". However, this was probably just random typing; many letters in this name are next to each other on a typical English-language QWERTY keyboard. In attempting to reply, Strong Bad shortened the unwieldy name to "fhqwhgads".
Later, Strong Bad wrote a song about Fhqwhgads which The Cheat converted into a music video, entitled "Everybody to the Limit", and has apparently sold over 500,000 copies, as evidenced by the gold record seen in your friends. The song is later featured in the game Dancin' Bubs.
In "Everybody to the Limit", Fhqwhgads is characterized as the Atari Dragon. Strong Bad gets annoyed at it for "jocking" him, that is, following him and trying to be like him. In the video, Fhqwhgads must be an unpopular, lowlife creature that looks up to Strong Bad as a role model, and, as such, he looks down upon Fhqwhgads. However, Strong Bad does mention at the end that he does actually feel sorry for Fhqwhgads.
Strong Bad gives Homestar Runner, Coach Z and Strong Mad a lesson in pronouncing the word "fhqwhgads" in an Easter egg at the end of the Strong Bad Email "sibbie". The correct pronunciation is fuh-HOO-gwah-gahds (in the International Phonetic Alphabet: /fə·'hʊ·gwə·gɑ:ds/).
In Main Page 22, the Biscuit Dough Hands Man pop-ups play samples of the Visor Robot saying "fhqwhgads" from "Everybody to the Limit".
