Fun Facts
Explanations
- This toon ended a month-long sale of Senor Cardgage and Homsar merchandise, which followed the mention of "Non-Sequitur Champion: Cardgage or Homsar?" in fan club; shoppers were invited to "vote" for their favorite incoherent character by purchasing a T-shirt of either character. Homsar won the title with 63% of the vote.
- Presbyterianism is a family of Christian denominations and a form of Calvinism.
Trivia
- The toon was removed from the Store on May 22, 2008, making it a secret page.
Remarks
- Even when this toon was found in the Store, it was not included in the TV Time Toons menu.
- The Flash file for this toon is hosted on videlectrix.com.
- Strong Sad didn't write "Grape Soda Banked" in his usual, elegant handwriting.
- When Strong Sad first draws the picture, it lacks color, but when he shows the camera, the grapes on the label and the bills emerging from the ATM are colored.
- Senor Cardgage has actually had coherent thoughts before. Some of his dialogue in both Senor Mortgage and Senorial Day would qualify as coherent.
Inside References
- This is another mention of grapes.
- Cherry Greg is listed as the producer of this toon.
- Sportsinterviews/Chimendez is listed as the production company.
- Styles Upon Styles is listed as the provider of Homestar's wardrobe.
- The ATM that Strong Sad draws strongly resembles the ATM in Experimental Film.
Fast Forward
- "Chant Words Together" would later be used at the end of the Punkin Show.
