Easter Eggs

  • During the scene with Pom Pom and The Poopsmith in the field, click on The Poopsmith's Goron Ruby tattoo to see the Homsar Easter egg.
  • If you click on The Poopsmith after the end of the toon Homestar sings Saria's song which causes The Poopsmith to dance.

Fun Facts

Trivia

  • This is the first time Onion Bubs has ever spoken.

Remarks

Goofs

  • The Poopsmith is dressed as King Darunia which is incorrectly spelled King Dirunia.
  • Homsar's hat is dressed up for Halloween, but at the end, he is wearing his normal bowler hat.

Inside References

Real World References

  • Strong Bad's comment about the moon falling refers to The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask, in which, the moon would come crashing down after 3 in-game days (72 minutes real-world time, under normal conditions), causing a game over unless Link reset time using the Ocarina of Time. His comment about it being a "totally unfrustrating" manner of play refers to how this time limit and limited saving cause the gamer to rush almost constantly.
    • The face on the moon resembles the moon in Majora's Mask.
  • The song that Homestar hums and the Poopsmith dances to is Saria's Song from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. In this game, the player must make Goron Chieftain Darunia dance to this song.
  • Marzipan says "Crystal, crystal, on the ball", a reference to the line "Mirror, mirror, on the wall" from Snow White.
  • This toon is done in the style of the poetry of Edgar Allan Poe.
  • When you click on Homestar at the end of the toon, the Easter Egg wraps up with him claiming to be strong and able to kick. This, along with Homestar's costume, is a reference to Crispin Glover's 1987 appearance on "Late Night with David Letterman".
  • When the concession stand turns into Bubs' head, it resembles and acts like the trash compactor in The Brave Little Toaster.
