Transcript
{Cut to the characters standing in a field. Crickets chirp for several seconds.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Hey everybody, I really like your covered all in black ink costumes. Kinda stole my idea, though. Don't you think?
{Crickets' chirping fades out}
Easter Eggs
- When the Flash file is decompiled, there is a hidden message that reads "sorry charlie" revealing several previously used and rejected costumes:
- Marzipan is dressed as a rejected Velma Dinkley, a character from the Scooby-Doo franchise, originally intended for The House That Gave Sucky Treats.
- Coach Z is dressed as a rejected Noid.
- Pom Pom dressed as Michael Moore in The House That Gave Sucky Treats.
- The King of Town is dressed as Sonny Crockett from Miami Vice.
Fun Facts
Trivia
- The RSS description of this toon is:
Homestar says - Pointy silhouettes! It must mean it's almost time for a new Hallowed Ween cartoon! Gather round the water cooler or water fountain or keg and discuss among friends and coworkers who you think everybody's dressed up as this year! Is it an obscure 70's reference? 80's reference? NINETIES reference?!?! Or is it just more dumb crap from a video game? Only times will tells!
- This teaser continues several gags from the previous two years, Jibblies 2 Teaser (2007) and Most in the Graveyard Teaser (2008):
- Silhouetted characters (in the same order as the previous teasers)
- Action that occurs after waiting
- Hidden text behind the characters
- Strong Bad depicted in an outrageous costume (RoboCop)
- Using a Flash decompiler reveals that Bubs is holding a soda cup.
- This is the only widescreen Halloween teaser.
Remarks
- The back button always returns to Main Page 7.
Inside References
- Homestar's remark about the costumes is yet another reference to what one is supposed to be for Halloween.
- The phrase "Boond you like" was previously used in the email more armies on a poster for the Homestarmy.
- Homestar previously interpreted a silhouetted character as being covered in ink in Hremail 2000.
- Strong Mad was covered in black paint to give him the silhouetted look as Killingyouguy in dangeresque 3.
Real-World References
- "Sorry, Charlie" was the response that Charlie the Tuna would always receive after not being good enough to be canned into StarKist-brand tuna in commercials from the '60s to the present.
