DS?

What do you suppose Homestar's marking as "ds" means? I can think of one that's not family friendly, but other options? - Qermaq - (^T/C)  19:23, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

My guess is on Dumb Star, or something like that. He previously called Homestar that in an email, I think, but I am not sure. Rogue Leader / (my talk) 19:25, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm guessing it's a reference to the Nintendo DS. It has been shown again and again that TBC are Nintendo fans. At least, the DS was what I first thought of when I saw that. My two cents. Alcnolien Has Spoken! 20:45, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

It's almost certainly "duckshirt." That's pretty much a synonym for Homestar, and in flashback, SB uses "Duckshirt" as Homestar's name. LitigationMattson 20:59, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Baseball reference

Strongsad's Easteregg mentioning Baseball could be a reference to the MLB Trade Deadline (which ends in 20 minutes)

Doubtful - TGS11 had a baseball ref too. I think TBC just like baseball. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  19:45, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Sticklyman's Return!

Ah, but are you sure it's Sticlyman? Does he have a shovel? Is he into light fighting? Or maybe he's just the typical guy-on-a-sign stick man. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  20:14, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

I hate you. My hopes and dreams rise up and you cruelly shoot them down with your harsh words. I will have my revenge, jerk! --207.69.139.8 20:22, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

That was kind'a rude, Qermac, but I suspect a block-in-progress, Mr. IP Stongbah ^Preeow! 21:01, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

no clicky on the lappy

when you click the lappy's screen, the pressure waves don't show up.

Sure they do. I just did it. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  20:14, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Up, A, and Start

• Does this reference any particular video game? If it were just Up+A, I'd be sure it was a reference to Metroid or both Legend of Zelda games on the NES (using that code on a second controller would save your progress and restart) but I can't think of any games that used Up+A and Start. -- Frickinsellout 20:29, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
  • You are almost certainly right. In fact, in Metroid, the Up+A on the second controller trick only works when you have paused (pressed start) on the first controller. I'm going to add it to the real-world references section. Trey56 20:58, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Long Pants?

Is it me, or is Homestar wearing his 'long pants' in the 'ool? (~InvaderJem)
