Best Thing appearance

"Also, his dimensions from the side seem to be somewhat rectangular, as seen in an easter egg from best thing."

Strong Mad doesn't appear in Best Thing. I think whoever posted this "fact" named the wrong toon. Poopsmith Z

Dream Theater Reference

The title of the web page, "Light fuse get away" is the name of a song by the band Dream Theater. We should have some format for "external references" in the character videos. Actually, I think I will edit the "Character Videos" page right now.

"Light fuse, get away" is just a typical instruction on a fireworks box. 71.231.56.40 17:47, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

And technically, it's called "Light Fuse AND Get Away". Homsar7

how much is

one million pounds? Nikolce Kocovski 09:44, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

It's slightly less than one-million-two pounds! I remember learning that in school! —  KieferSkunk (talk) — 15:50, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

1 000 000 lbs = 453 592.4 kg (assuming all the figures in the original number are significant) — It's dot com 16:45, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Heh... sorry for my smart-alec response above. :) It was too good an opportunity for a random HSR reference to pass up. —  KieferSkunk (talk) — 17:43, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Nah, don't worry about, i can use a joke hear and there sometimes.

Says on the article page that he's 900 Pounds.Get a grip.--Gir007 23:17, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

"Get a grip"? Gir007, this conversation occured two months ago, and has already been answered. Why did you bring this up again, and, more importantly, why did you tell Nikolce Kocovski to "get a grip"? —FireBird|Talk 23:21, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Glasses?

should it be mentioned that Strong Mad apparently needs glasses? Evidence: rampage, Processing

Go for it. You might mention that he uses them for reading. — It's dot com 22:51, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Andre the Giant

Is it worth pointing out that Strong Mad's voice is an impression of the late Andre the Giant? No-one else here seems to have noticed this.

I don't remember anybody in The Princess Bride saying "GET IN MAH BELLY!". But seriously, I don't think they sound alike. Loafing 20:21, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

There is the obvious connection between Strong Mad has a Posse and André_the_Giant_Has_a_Posse, but I don't think their voices are that similar. Trey56 20:27, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

That's really odd that you would say that. I wouldn't call it a *good* impression, or even a *consistent* one (because Andre didn't always sound like that, but an impression it certainly is. Maybe the Brothers would be the ones to ask about that, because I'm quite certain that that is what they intended, and specifically, a scene to watch in the movie you mention, Loafing, is the scene in which Andre is lit on fire in the black cloak, shouting: "I am the Dread Pirate Roberts. . . etc." Watch it, you'll see what I mean.

I don't think Strong Mad's nearly articulate enough to be particularly similar to Andre the Giant. Evil Egg 19:29, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Seemed worth noting

This doesn't really belong in the entry, but I think it's worthwhile to note that although there's evidence that Strong Mad bullies Strong Sad, on the few occaisions we've seen them left to their own devices together, they don't seem to get along poorly at all. In light of this, it seems likely that, rather than Strong Mad disliking Strong Sad, he just gets 'roped into' bullying him the same way he often gets dragged into Strong Bad's antics.

I concur.

 ???

I think he actualy said and breakin stuff in the charicter video

No, it's quite clearly "Umm", and there's nothing between those two words. No "and". --DorianGray 20:21, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

OK I was just checking before I had it edited just to have it edited back

Strong Mad is grouchy. --School 16:11, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
