*Anyone want to take a guess at what the children backup singers are singing? It's certainly not "Zee S is for sucks". Sounds like random babbling.

Honestly, I don't think the two are things are at all related. I think it was:Troggie got angry, yelled at Strong Bad, SB apologizes, (scene), and then TBC just threw in the song for the hell of it, like they did in [[Dragon]]. [[Trogdor|Whoever the dragon outside is]], they're not asking/demanding a song.--{{User:DongleGoblin/sig}} 18:11, 16 January 2008 (UTC) | Honestly, I don't think the two are things are at all related.

:No it isn't. It's just a vaguely similar sentence. I re-use lines all the time, but I don't always "reference" something I said in the past. I don't think it's a reference, a running gag, or anything else; it's just TBC's way of talking. We don't need to remark on how *everything* said is a "reference" to something said in the past just because it's *kinda* similar. Honestly, we're '''really''' reaching these days, trying to pad the Inside Refs and Real World Refs sections needlessly... -{{User:YK/sig}} 20:42, 15 January 2008 (UTC) | :No it isn't.

- | ::Heimstern Läufer, see my comment downthread (the one that starts with "Yes"). I'm not a regular contributor to this wiki (I don't even have an account), so I have no vested interest in padding the Inside Refs section. What I'm saying is that when I heard the line, I knew it reminded me of something in another toon, I couldn't remember what it was, and I was curious. Where am I going to find this out if not on HRWiki? Please, think of the casual users -- don't focus so much the conceptual and structural purity of the project that you lose sight of them. | + | ::Heimstern Läufer, see my comment downthread (the one that starts with "Yes").

::Addendum: I don't think re-used lines make for very good "references", simply because unless the wording is *very* unique and specific to one source, there just isn't any especially good reason to believe it's referring directly to one specific usage of it. TBC *are* known for frequently alluding to older toons, but words are just words. -{{User:YK/sig}} 20:46, 15 January 2008 (UTC) | ::Addendum: I don't think re-used lines make for very good "references", simply because unless the wording is *very* unique and specific to one source, there just isn't any especially good reason to believe it's referring directly to one specific usage of it.

:::Whether or not it's a "reference," the first thing I thought when I heard it was "oh, that's a weird phrasing that Strong Bad's used before, but I can't remember where." It would be nice to be able to go to the Wiki page for the toon and find out what I was half-remembering, because there's no other way for me to find out without watching everything on the site over again.

I so want an MP3 of the song -_- there is another one I wanted as well, but now I can't remember it. I hope someone makes one for this. I can't record from the "What you hear" as many people are able to do with Audacity or something. This is due to me having SigmaTel Audio (I also don't have its control panel.) --[[User:205.213.122.19|205.213.122.19]] 15:12, 16 January 2008 (UTC) | I so want an MP3 of the song -_- there is another one I wanted as well, but now I can't remember it.

I think it should be noted somewhere that wormdingler was the, ahem, "Dragon", that Coach Z drew in the original e-mail. Just in case some one hasn't seen [[Dragon]]. --{{User:GardenBoy/sig}} 23:49, 16 January 2008 (UTC) | I think it should be noted somewhere that wormdingler was the, ahem, "Dragon", that Coach Z drew in the original e-mail.
