== Strong Zoloft ==
*I think that lump on top of Strong Sad's head is inspired by Zoloft ads.

No, the ads came afterwards. The Brothers Chap should sue! (just kidding)--[[User:Hysterical Woman|Hysterical Woman]] 11:51, 25 Sep 2004 (MST)

*Come to think of it, the little Zoloft people look exactly like Strong Sad's disembodied head, except their eyes aren't as shiny.  In his old style, this would not have mattred.

*I read somewhere that the Zoloft mascot was a rock, though the way it's drawn, it certainly does look like it has a lump. I wonder what TBC did have in mind when they drew Strong Sad's head that way. Mr. Bland had one too, but it remains open to speculation. --[[User:Ogog|Ogog]]

*To me, Strong Sad's looks like he's wearing a Smurf hat.

*Well this isn't importaint but I think that the lump on S.S.'s head is resault of being pumbled every hour on the hour buy Strong Mad and Bad the lump i think is one of those cartoon bumps when you get hit on the head.

*Maybe Strong Sad has hair.  Who knows?  Maybe that lump could be a little bit of hair. [[User:Cheddarlebbon|Cheddarlebbon]]

*Y'know, before I found H*R.com, a link between Strong Sad and the Zoloft mascot would never have crossed my mind.  I always thought the Zoloft "rock" looked a lot like the Intel "Pentium Inside" logo, though.

== Five Fingers? ==

Is it worth noting that in [[best thing]] (and in a few similar scenes), Strong Sad has five fingers? - [[User:69.229.230.43|69.229.230.43]]

Strong Sad does not have five fingers in [[best thing]]. {{User:Homestramy20/sig}} 03:39, 8 Sep 2005 (UTC)

== "Strong Sad Rocks Out" Music Video ==

<pre> [[The Skate Party]] made a song called "Strong Sad Rocks Out" with a wiki user created 
http://home.earthlink.net/~mrdrama07/SSRO_Higher_Bandwith_v2.wmv music video] for the song. </pre>

==Misunderstood guy==
I like Strong sad, I think It's safe to say I would be friends with him in real life, of course, I'd make fun of him around strong bad and alot of other guys, but I'd convince him that I was foolin. [[User:Thechamp|Thechamp]] 13:41, 24 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I totally agree, I think Strong Sad would be an okay guy if he wasn't so down on himself all the time.[[User:Homestramy20|Homestramy20]]

Strong Sad is a great guy, but his constant depression seems keep the other characters from being friends with him. But I would be friends with him. [[User:Strong Sader|Strong Sader]]

Same here! I would totally be friends with him.[[User:20X6 GEM|20X6 GEM]]

Hes also my favorite:D even more so than Homestar! But just a little bit... {{User:Homestramy20/sig}} 01:11, 3 Sep 2005 (UTC)

He's not ''that'' depressed. Strong Bad makes it look like he is. He seems like a nice guy 'cause he befriends Homsar, which is an adventure within itself. XD --[[User:MrsCommanderson|MrsCommanderson]] 00:59, 8 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Well, actually I think Strong Sad is quite depressed. Sure, Strong Bad might make it seem more than it is, but the depressed person ''is'' pretty much what Strong '''Sad''' stands for. Seriously. {{User:Homestramy20/sig}} 03:30, 8 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Strong Sad is a great guy, and he actually got along with Strong Bad when they were little, and I know why Strong Bad turned on him.
On the photo album I saw, it says that one time Strong Bad was cheating on something, and Strong Sad refused to help, so Strong Bad always does bad stuff to him.
[[User:Cheddarlebbon|Cheddarlebbon]]


i would be best friends with him--[[User:Valf|Valf]] 23:51, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Yeah. I think that the other characters often portray him in a bad light. If Strong Sad was real, I'd be friends with him. And Homsar too. Strong Sad is probably one of my favourite characters. [[User:Pazoink|Haldo. How are you?]] 15:49, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Now that we're talking aboot Strong Sad as a buddy it reminds me of a guy at my school. He looks like Strong Sad in a really small way! So I have a Strong Sad friend (he aint depressed and dorky though). [[User:85.228.165.63|85.228.165.63]] 20:34, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
:I can't help but notice that this topic seems to have attracted about one person per year.  Odd.  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 21:00, 17 May 2008 (UTC)


I'd defenatly be his friend

I wouldn't wanna have anything to do with Strong Sad, he's a loser.

: I wouldn't wanna have anything to do with critical annonies, myself. Similarly, this is a forum talk. But yes, Strong Sad is an alright guy if you step back and see ''why'' he is so depressing. --[[User:Jellote|Jellote]] 22:58, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
== Compliment? ==

In the SB-Eamil [[lady...ing]], Strong Bad calls Strong Sad a "cute baby brother". Was he giving him a compliment? Because this is the first time I have noticed Strong Bad say anything nice about Strong Sad.

:Well, he ''did'' compliment Strong Sad's rhythm in [[caper]]. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 19:09, 18 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:Exacactly. So this is just another instance of how Strong Bad might think a bit higher of his little brother than he makes it seems.

:Whoa, this is Strong Bad were talking about here people {{User:Homestramy20/sig}} 08:02, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)

== Question... ==

Okay, I feel quite stupid asking this, But what does Strong Sad mean in this line from his Character page?

:'''STRONG SAD:''' And it got me thinking, you know? Two lovers... collide...

{{User:Homestramy20/sig}} 02:57, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:I think it's actually 'two lovers... alive'. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]


Either way, I don't understand it.. is it suppost to be, creey? Or disturbing? {{User:Homestramy20/sig}} 02:57, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:No, it's really just a Strong Sad-ism, I think. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

Hmm.. okay. Yeah, probably him just being... strangly random... {{User:Homestramy20/sig}} 04:25, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:This is an old convo, I know... but... isn't there a song "When 2 Fools Collide"? --[[User:Ookelaylay|אוקאלייליי (Ookelaylay)]]

== Have you noticed ==

strong sad seems to be less depressiong unlike in the earlier cartoons?

[[User:Nikolce Kocovski|Nikolce Kocovski]] 10:48, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

:I still think SS is depressing, he's just developed a bit more, grown more character. {{User:Homestramy20/sig}} 22:28, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
::And Coach Z seems to get more and more [[Talk:Coach_Z#Swtchereroo?|depressing...]] {{User:Bubsty/sig}} 03:26, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

== Image ==
I noticed this image was updated by someone, but then reverted. While I agree with this revert, as the new image had too much empty space, I do think a new image would be nice. Why? Because the current image only shows a part of his body and is in an old style. We gots to stay current, you know? - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 17:51, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
:I second that. I think a full body shot should be a requirement for a bio page like this. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

== Marzipan ==

This Strong Sad article says that "...his only friends are Marzipan, whom he seems to have a crush on..." I can't seem to recall any instance in which this has happened. Could someone show me an example of this if it's not too much trouble? - {{User:Almo/sig}}
:Try checking some of the [[Marzipan's Answering Machine|Answering Machines]], especially the older ones. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

:: I think that's open to interpretation.  Whereas Coach Z and Bubs are clearly trying to hit Ms. Pan up for dates, Strong Sad may be simply trying to make a friend anywhere he can.  I don't hear anything in his messages that clearly indicates romantic interest.  Indeed, it would be in character for Strong Sad to be too juvenile, too nerdy, or just plain too pathetic to want a girlfriend.  (Don't get me wrong, I love Strong Sad.)  I'm not saying he ''doesn't'' have a crush on Marzipan; I'm just saying there may not be enough evidence for us to assert that he does.  Anybody got any other relevant data points?  {{User:Bill/sig}}

Well, you can see Strong Sad has a crush on Marzipan in Strong Sad's charactor video where Marzipan is recording it.  At the end, Strong Sad says "When lovers colide".
[[User:Cheddarlebbon|Cheddarlebbon]]

== Belly Button ==

Is it worth mentioning baby Strong Sad's lack of belly button? - Quolnok
:It's already mentioned, in a way - "The true origin of Strong Sad's belly button is unknown, though it has been hinted that (L'il) Strong Bad created it with a drill." {{User:KieferSkunk/sig}} 18:54, 5 March 2006 (UTC)


== gOOse ==
Does anyone think that Strong Sad has a noteworthy way of exaggerating words like gOOOOse and lOOOse? [[User:Kefti islander|Kefti islander]] 02:55, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
:You're referring to "loose leaf" and "dead goose at me", I don't think two is notable. And the second is nowhere near as drawn out as the first. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 03:04, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

== Should we remove the "email Strong Sad" link? ==

I just emailed Strong Sad asking when [[Strong Sad's Lament]] is going to be updated. I got this as a response. About 45 minutes later (48 if you want to be exact), I received this reply:
<blockquote>Strong Sad is no longer accepting emails because you people kept signing me up for "natural male enhancers." That, and the death threats weren't very cool either.

Leemee 'lone!

Strong Sad

www.homestarrunner.com/sadjournal/</blockquote>

I guess it didn't get much &mdash; if any &mdash; legitimate mail. Unless that's what the old Easter egg mentioned in the [[depressio]] commentary was and it's back. {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 23:53, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

:That's noted [[depressio|here]] already. It could be noted here as well, I suppose. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 00:13, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

== Strong Sad = Hamlet? ==

I found this image as an advertisement on SparkNotes.com

http://a248.e.akamai.net/7/800/1129/1139767562/oascentral-s.realmedia.com/RealMedia/ads/Creatives/sparks.com/2006-02_HouseAds_300_shakespeare/nfs-250x300-free_v2.gif

Call it a shot in the dark, but this looks suspiciously like Strong Sad, doesn't it? Guessing by context, the image here seems to be of Hamlet.  And it makes sense, too - Hamlet is perhaps the greatest chronically depressed character in literature.  If this is in fact a common way of portraying Hamlet, can anyone verify a connection between Hamlet's image and Strong Sad's origin?

Hey, i can't see the picture that u found. Could u try to fix it? -[[User:Strong Rose|Strong Rose]]

== Lump = Hair? ==

I think the lump is just quaffed back hair. Anyone else think so? [[User:Strong Sader|Strong Sader]] 09:46, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
:I have to disagree. If you look at the figurine, it is actually a lump. Remember when Homestar put a sock on his head in [[impression]]? That's why.

== Strong Sad's Music ==
That's a really good addition to his character page. But I have another band that he ''probably'' listens to. 

What about They Might Be Giants? He quoted "Don't Let's Start" on his blog once (''"Everybody dies frustrated and sad, and that is beautiful."''), and during the Experimental Film commentary, he seemed to be defending the band (or at least the band's name) when Strong Bad and Homestar misname TMBG. 

Someone comment on this; I think the band should be on his list. - [[User:TheDeathlyPallor]]

Good catch. I'll add it to the page. --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 15:35, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

== Lurker ==

:''This discussion was moved from [[Talk:Lurker]] after [[Lurker]] was merged with this article.''
This should be merged with [[Strong Sad]] since nobody else is called a lurker. I also don't think it's significant enough to warrant it's own article.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 06:05, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

:All right, then. Go ahead. [[User:Retromaniac|Retromaniac]] 16:33, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

::Even though thia topic's been dormant, I agree with merging the article with [[Strong Sad]]. I feel the information deserves to be a part of the wiki, but doesn't deserve its own page. {{User:Bluebry/sig}} 20:36, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

== Age ==

Hey, call it a hunch, but I think that Strong Sad's age is somewhere between 18-24, as seen in [[looking old]]. when Strong Bad goes to "relate to some 18-24 year olds", he goes to Strong Sad. What do you guys think?
--[[User:Strong Rose|Strong Rose]] 19:59, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Has anyone else noticed that Strong Sad never blinks, while other characters do?--[[User:It Was the Book of my Dreams|It Was the Book of my Dreams]] 05:20, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
:Not really, coz, like, Marzi and Homestar are the only ones who blink with any regularity. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 05:24, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

::More don't than do, though. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 06:21, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

== Umm... ==

Why hasn't anyone noticed that Strong Sad has an extremely obvious cliched Canadian accent?--[[User:68.53.87.6|68.53.87.6]]
:I can sorta hear it if I listen for it but I'd never noticed.  I think it's just a minor coincidence.  If it were really supposed to be a Canadian accent, there are numerous things they would have exaggerated to make it obvious but they didn't, so I don't really think it's supposed to be a clichéd accent.{{User:Bryanc/sig}} 16:16, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
:You didn't mean to post this on [[Talk:Coach Z]] by any chance?{{User:Bryanc/sig}} 16:19, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
No, I'm fairly certain I was talking about Strong Sad. I think is occasional exageration of "oo" might be a reference to it.--[[User:Homsar Lover|Homsar Lover]]

== Thrice? ==
What does thrice mean?--{{User:Kanjiro/sig}} 03:54, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
:It's a fancy word for [http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/thrice three times] (rather like how twice means "two times"). Don't worry, there's no "fourice", as far as I know. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 03:57, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

== Twelve-Times-A-Day Man Article? ==

Shouldn't Twelve-Times-A-Day Man get his own article since [[Fat Bluebird]], [[Tom Servo]], [[Don Knotts]] do? [[User:20X6 GEM|20X6 GEM]] 04:41, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
:No.  It was [[Talk:Twelve_Times_a_Day_Man|discussed]], and decided since it's a minor variant of an established character (like [[Talk:Modestly_Hot_Homsar|Modestly Hot Homsar]]), it doesn't get it's own page.  The ones that mention, while minor, appeared on screen, so need to have an article.  It's rather a tricky thing to figure out, but I believe that's why the difference. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 04:49, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
::If you look over [[HRWiki:IG]], that's exactly what it say about such characters: "''Page content relating to a character: Needs only one appearance in Homestar Runner toons, as long as it is not a minor variation of one of the already established characters, a character in a costume, or a different personality of that character.''" While being a guideline and not a rule, I think it should apply here. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 05:54, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

== Is Strong Sad dead? ==

==Strong Sad changing==

Methinks there should be a character development section on Strong Sad. Anyone agree?

== I feel like the article likes Strong Sad too much. ==

Allow me to rephrase: The article, the way it is written, makes me feel like it's not saying anything but good things about Strong Sad. I'm not saying he's not smart or rational, but I feel like we should show both sides of the coin, and write about his more annoying traits, such as clearly enjoying (or maybe not?) his extreme depression and still complaining that other people don't like him, like it's their fault. I dunno if anything I said made sense or is backed up by facts or anything, but we always show the bad ans the good of the other characters, so we should for Strong Sad too.--[[Special:Contributions/65.87.242.28|65.87.242.28]] 20:06, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
: His depression is mentioned, and how often does he complain about people not liking him as though it's their fault? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 20:14, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
:: We already note he is annoying and depressed. Why kick this pitiable creature when he's down? If we write any unnecisary things about how crappy of a person he is, would that be fair? Strong Sad is my favorite character in terms of how deep he is. His brothers mistreat him, yet he still harbors love for them. His friends ignore him but he always shows them sympathy. Pretty much everything wrong with him we can easily trace back to [[Homestar Runner|idiot]] and [[Strong Bad|jerkwad]] farther down the line, so it ''is'' their fault. Those aren't his bad traits. All that he has is depression that can easily explained. What more can we say? That he is annoyingly intelligent and micromanaging? <small> Oh wait. Well, actually, we can.</small> --[[User:Jellote|Jellote]] 22:58, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
:::Okay, maybe I phrased it wrong. I didn't mean we should necessarily say he is how I said he is, I meant we should focus on more than what we like about him. I personally am not a big fan of Strong Sad, but I do really like Strong Bad, and every time I see some person or article talking bad about him, I get a little bugged, so I can understand where you guys are coming from. But I do think we need it to be neutral in tone. You said that we should not write any unnecessary things about him. Well I think showing his annoyingness is necessary. But writing about how he still loves his brothers is also necessary. So, just to be clear, I'm not saying we should write about how crappy he is, I'm saying we should cover all his aspects. I hope this clears any miscommunications up.--[[Special:Contributions/65.87.242.28|65.87.242.28]] 15:41, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
::::I'm afraid I don't see how what's written now isn't neutral. All the same, if you want to make edits, then this is a Wiki. No one's stopping you (though make sure they're useful edits if you don't want it to be reverted.) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:59, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
::::: Wait. You don't see why Strong Bad is a bad guy, bad guy, bad guy? Sorry, but I think someone else needs to look at this from a nuetral standpoint. Strong Bad is a bully and a [[Crimes Committed by Strong Bad!criminal]], man. He is undeniably a jerk and, although that is why we all love him, you shouldn't be shocked to hear some people trashing him. And as to your comment on how we should mention his whineyness, I wouldn't be on your case so much if it wasn't already noted in the article (it is noted throughout the first three paragraphs). While I think we should at least say he is annoying, it doesn't deserve more publicity than that. It is already noted besides that.--[[User:Jellote|Jellote]] 22:03, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
:::::: I understand SB is a bad bad man, I meant to say that I feel we should cover all his aspects too, to show that I don't just hate SS but want the article to be well rounded. On some more consideration and a second reading, I feel like this article is well written, with only one thing left out, as far as I can tell. It doesn't mention that he tends to be a killjoy when everyone else is going crazy with cartoon antics. Sorry for the trouble and for jumping to conclusions, it won't happen again.

== His voice?!? ==

In the homestarloween party his voice is like that of a man's, but fast forward to now and it's risen by more than an octave!! What's up with that?!?
:Homestarloween Party was, relatively speaking, one of the eariest toons on the website. TBC had just started out and so Matt wasn't used to talking in Strong Sad's voice because the character was still very new and blank personality-wise. So the voice was kind of low and unemotional at first, and probably not really different from Matt's normal voice. But as the years went on and Strong Sad became a more developed character, Matt got a lot better at speaking in Strong Sad's voice and gradually it changed into something that he was comfortable using and was now able to add more emotion and personality to his character. This kind of thing is actually very common in almost all cartoons, as most voices tend to be a lot worse when the show started than in more recent, more professionally-produced episodes. Strong Bad's change in voice was even more drastic; when the website started, he had this ridiculous, over-the-top, faux-Mexican accent and "bad guy" attitude because he was an extremely shallow character who's only purpose was to be the bad guy and shout "Holy Crap!" a lot. By the time Strong Bad starts checking emails on the Compy, Matt had dropped the accent and he spoke normally in a gravelly voice. He no longer behaves like a villain and has an affinity for old technology. Nowadays, Strong Bad's voice even less husky (partly due to the fact that TBC have since bought a better microphone) which can cover all sorts of emotions. He's got a unique personality and a voice to match, simply because Matt's ability to change his voice has improved impressively over the years. So in summary, apart from the pitch, nothing is up with Strong Sad's voice. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 16:58, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

==Strong Sad's status as a Deletehead==
I find it odd that this facet of his character isn't mentioned anywhere on the page, or even the "Strong Bad and Strong Sad's relationship" page. While it could be considered a rarely-used joke, I think this actually builds on his character quite a bit - giving Strong Sad a Stockholm Syndrome-ish opinion of his brother. Despite the frequent insults and beatings, he's still a huge fan of Strong Bad's email show, able to quote various obscure statistics and willing to camp by the computer for three days to shout "a-restricted!" (and who knows how long for "Holy crap!", according to the easter egg from the same email). I'd add these things to the wiki myself but I'm inexperienced with these things and would rather start a discussion to make sure others agree that it's a notable part of his personality. - BikdipOnABus, November 30 2009

Is it worth mentioning that it has been strongly implied that Strong Sad is "part elephant or part hippo or something?" In DNA evidence, when Strong Bad says that "the world will never know for sure," Strong Sad privatly agrees and starts laughing maniacly. I think that's pretty much a confirmation of his ele/hippo blood.

==Crying==
Sometimes I think Strong Sad sometimes cries, but tries to hide his tears, I've seen him constantly rub underneath his eyes with his finger.

==Eyes==
I noticed Strong Sad eyes look like commas!

== "depressio222"? ==

<blockquote>Strong Sad used to have an AOL Instant Messenger screenname of "depressio222". A fan registered the name, and after many questions as to why [[the Brothers Chaps]] had not reserved it beforehand, Strong Sad's IM changed to "depressio111117".</blockquote>

This Fun Fact was {{p|l=http://hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Strong_Sad&diff=prev&oldid=362227 added in 2006}} (by an anonymous IP who made no further edits) but I don't see any evidence to support Strong Sad ever having been given the screenname "depressio222" or that it had been "changed" to the 111117 number that is currently shown everywhere in the body of work so I've removed it from the article. Rationale:

*Searching the HRWiki for "depressio222" (with all advanced options checked) has only a single result: the main "Strong Sad" article. There is no mention of "depressio222" in any other article, not even ones that discuss his "depressio111117" AIM screenname such as [[depressio]], [[Contacts]], [[marzipan]], or [[Strong Sad's Lament]].
**"Strong Sad's Lament" only listed "depressio111117", both in its {{p|l=http://hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Strong_Sad%27s_Lament&oldid=583 oldest version}} and {{p|l=http://hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Strong_Sad%27s_Lament&oldid=362201 the version that existed at the time of the edit}}. Looking at [https://web.archive.org/web/20021211084133/http://www.homestarrunner.com/sadjournal/profile.html the Internet Archive] for his profile, I only see "depressio111117" as his AOL IM.
**The [[marzipan]] article does not indicate the screenname was ever changed (it was {{p|l=http://hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=marzipan&diff=24555&oldid=24554 first transcribed}} only a few months after the email's release). Similarly [https://web.archive.org/web/20030207073740/https://homestarrunner.com/sbemail59.html the oldest Internet Archive version] of the toon shows "depressio111117" sending the final message.
*A Google search for "depressio222" only yields (excepting the single HRWiki result) fanmade accounts registered well after 2010.

The phrasing of "after many questions..." also feels suspect as there's no mention of it on an FAQ or in interviews/appearances that I can find (even allowing for the fact that searching the wiki for "aim" or "im" will return so many false positives that it's a fool's errand), and otherwise how would a fan know how much TBC had been pestered? Of course, because {{w|AIM (software)|AIM}} has been discontinued for nigh on a decade it's not like we can double-check what was registered when. But still {{--}} strikes me as very shaky. --{{User:Bleu Ninja/sig}} 02:08, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
