What did he say?

In the easter egg when you click "hanging out", it almost sounds like Senor Cardgage says "***hole" when Strong Bad asks him to say something else. -woddfellow2|

Senor Comb-over

Isn't the guy in the easter egg Creepy Comb-over Strong Bad? Since the "with a guy like that" after the "hanging out" you have to click refers to creepy C-O SB, not Senor Cardgage. <--SUCKY GRAMMAR!! Kvb 10:36, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

Reviving old topic because Trogga changed it: Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad is a form of Strong Bad. Senor Cardgage is a separate character. The character in the Easter egg, therefore, is Senor Cardgage, since he's standing next to Strong Bad (I think it can be argued that it's Senor Cardgage in the entire email, but he's AT LEAST in the Easter egg.) --Jay v.2024 (Auld lang syne) 01:03, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I just don't want to confuse newbies. --TROGGA! 17:58, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)

The Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad page now redirects to Senor Cardgage. That probably happened on July 15, 2005. Some changes have been made to this page, too. Previously, the cast list said: Strong Bad, Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad, Homestar Runner, Pom Pom, Bubs, Strong Mad, Strong Sad, Senor Cardgage (Easter egg). Creepy Comb-Over Strong Bad was changed to Senor Cardgage, and "Senor Cardgage (Easter egg)" got removed. The transcript still uses CREEPY COMB-OVER STRONG BAD, but the Easter egg transcript uses SENOR CARDGAGE. Should I change them BOTH to SENOR CARDGAGE since it was probably decided that they are one and the same person? Gm1121983 8:23 pm 4 Jan 2006

This has always been a shady issue, but I reverted that change based on this reason: that the transcript may be written in such a way that character is described as presented in the email only. Sure, we know it's Senor Cardgage now, but back then, that email was showing us as Creepy-Combover SB. —BazookaJoe

beer belly

Well, yes, he does say "beer" for the first time in an email, but he's not even referring to beer, so the bit about the Cold Ones is almost a stretch. To be fair, they're talking about potbellies, which TBC could have just as easily decided to say. I think they've been pretty good so far about not putting in alcohol or drug references. Either make a mention of the non-reference to beer or take it out altogether...

Just a thought. --blackbelt 21:48, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I agree. I took it out. Let's see what the rest of the world thinks. -- tomstiff 21:58, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I agree with taking out that fact. It's not a direct reference to beer, and even if it were, it's not the first, and even if it were, you could just as easily litter the wiki with useless fun facts like "garage sale" is the first mention on the site of garage sales"... Aurora the Homestar Coder

Homestar's Singing

When Homestar sings his various phrases, it is the same melody as the chorus of "The Cheat Is Not Dead".

  • Vera Weak Accept. It seemed to me a 2 out of the 3 phrases were sung that way. -- tomstiff 20:12, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • "I Cut The Fact Off The STUFF Page in the Morning Light! DELETED! zno sir, I don't like it one bit. Cheatachu72 17:14, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • -compares- "You smell like pea soooooup!" "The Cheat is not deeeead!" There's a little bit of a similarity, but not much...Weak Accept. Kiwi 19:56, 9 Jun 2005
  • Weak Decline Yes, it's similar, but it's not the same... it's just coincidence, I think. You could just as well say that it's the same melody as the Lappy's startup noise... --phlip TC 01:06, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Decline. We would need to hear more lines from the song to make a strong connection. H*R also seems to enjoy making up random songs, i.e. bread sing-alongs in origins. -Svelt
  • Decline --Ju Ju Master 13th June, 2005
  • Decline -- Granted, the first time Homestar sings "you smell like pea soooup, the pitches (notes) are similar -- but not identical -- to "The Cheat is not dead." But he sings it again later in the email, and it's even less similar. I'm with the 'coincidence' theory. (For those who really care and know solfeggio: the musical pitches for "the Cheat is not dead" are Do-Do-Re-Mi-So. Homestar's first "you smell like pea soup" is more like Do-Do-Do-Mi-So. The second time is less distinct but even more of a departure. olda guy 14:07, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC))


Jor-El

Strong Bad's pronunciation "Jor-Dan" likely refers to Jor-El, the biological father of Superman.

That "kind of cool" song

I never heard that song, EVER!!! It's not in the transcript or the easter egg transcript! How did they know that song existed? -Kinsey
