Page Title: Extra Flammable Peasant Robes at UNflammable prices!

Button Effects

• Toons — Homestar's robe catches fire.
• Games — A burninated peasant sprite emerges from the cottage while music from TROGDOR! plays.
• Characters — Trogdor pokes his snout in and roars. Part of Homestar's robe and his cheeks ripple from the force of his breath.
• Downloads — Strong Bad runs by while Trogdor, in a more detailed art style using photography and 3D rendering, chases him. Strong Bad yells, "Somebody get this freakin' duck away from me!"
• Store — Rather Dashing walks up, produces a baby from his inventory, and throws it offscreen. If the cursor remains over the button long enough, a text box pops up reading:

You throw the baby offscreen. It is quickly adopted and raised by the "downloads" button who doesn't really have a whole lot going on these days anyway.

• E-mail — Strong Sad runs by wearing burninated peasant robes, saying, "I'm sad that I'm frying."

Fun Facts

Trivia

• This main page was released on Trogday 2021, over 10 years since the previous main page, as Strong Bad acknowledged on Twitter.

Goofs

Homestar's cheek ripple effect overlaps onto his mouth if it is open all the way.

Remarks

• Homestar Runner does not blink on this main page due to his eyes not being animated as a movie clip like they usually are.
• The baby tossed by Rather Dashing lands near the Characters button.

Inside References

• Several elements on the page directly call back to other main pages.
  • Homestar's head catches fire, similarly to Tofu Homestar in the Luau Main Page.
  • Strong Bad's line is reused from Main Page 13 where he was chased by the Atari Dragon.
  • "I'm sad that I'm frying" is a play on "I'm sad that I'm flying" from Main Page 15.
