Although the "Is" should capitalized by rights in the title of this article, the title in the Toons menu on the Homestar Runner site puts it in lower case. Hence, the title of this article should remain "The System is Down". --Render 04:53, 21 Sep 2004 (MST)

Preview

On the toons menu preview of the cartoon it shows Homestar running past the 404 error. Should that be added to trivia? Sesshoumaru Cian 09:16, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

SoaD reference?

I think The System is Down might very well by a reference to the herd rock band "System of a Down". (note: big fan here.) --12.202.214.217 15:56, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)

I think it may be just a referance to the e-mail techno, but you never know. Maybe that could go under a "fun fact." — talk Bubsty edits 20:50, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure it's talking about a system... being down... - Camalex(talk) 20:52, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

difficulties

Ok, you removed the system is down goof i added, let me explain where I found it. First click on the Flash file for the cartoon, then read the first paragraph, you will eventually get to the word "difficulties" which is missing the "u" and the "l" is small, and capitalized. If you don't notice this, i don't know what to say... Now go to the other place wher you can view this cartoon (the link from homestarrunner.com, the toons menu), read that same paragraph, and the word "difficulties" will be spelled correctly. For some reason, it is wrong on the Flash file...

Again, if you don't see this, I don't know what to say except...I guess I am looking at it wrong (?).

Anyways, Tell me if you can notice it now...bye

You're looking at it wrong. The .html file uses the .swf file, so it's not possible for them to be different. Try resizing the window and see what happens. Or zoom in. It's definitely spelled correctly. — It's dot com 01:06, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

dvd transcript

"Sass dackery"... shouldn't that be "Sass Daquiri"? I don't drink, but I think if all you have to go on is phoenetics, he might be saying the actual word. Trelawney 03:53, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

I transcribed it; I didn't know what they were talking about. I tried searching my head, google, spell check, for the most probable way to spell it. Sass Daquiri is probably what he's saying. By all means, go ahead and change it. —BazookaJoe 03:56, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Do ya tink this should be peoples error pages?

Well, If we could change the URL for our error page we could download the swf and then when you get error ta-da! It would be a cool idea huh?
