While Homestar Runner takes place in and around Free Country, USA, there are some cultural references to the Germans.
Appearances
- Main Page 2 — Homestar Runner wears lederhosen.
- In Search of the Yello Dello — At one point, when Coach Z informs Homestar to get Marzipan "some rare flower from the tallest mountain", the scene depicts Homestar again wearing lederhosen. In the commentary, during this scene, Strong Bad sarcastically asks Homestar if he can call him "Homestar von Runnerberger".
- Email haircut — The email comes from Harry Earlenmacherg of the German town of Düsseldorf. Strong Bad refers to him as Düsseldörke and then as Deutschman, whose name becomes the name of a character in the Strong Badman comic book series.
- Email pom pom — In an Easter egg, Strong Bad refers to Pom Pom's parents as General and Fraulein Pom Pom. Fräulein is a German prefix similar to the English "Miss", meaning "unmarried woman".
- Ever and More! — The King of Town's helmet is a German pickelhaube.
- Email original — The first shot of the montage scene where Original Bubs is written "into stories" has both Homestar and Strong Bad wearing lederhosen.
