LELLOWTAPE: Do not cross.

Sometimes, The Brothers Chaps acknowledge the fact that an update, especially a Strong Bad Email, has been late or has been (or will be) delayed. This can occur in a separate toon, in a Main Page message, or in an email itself.

  • Email army — The Compy appears to be dusty with a little cobweb on the top left corner, and Strong Bad says, "It's been a while."
