Homestar's t-shirt

Anybody know what Homestar's t-shirt says? I'm sure it's a reference to something, but I don't know what it is, and I can't make out what it says. Also, I tried moving his bathrobe by decompiling the Flash file, but the robe and the t-shirt are the same graphic. Trey56 17:51, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

See shape 501. Hotrod, it seems. No idea if it's a real shirt. OptimisticFool 17:58, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Trey, what does homestar look like under there without being pixelly? — Defender1031*Talk 17:59, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

OF: Ooh, nice work! That means it's a reference to Rowdy Roddy Piper! :D DeFender: Hmm, I forgot to check... {gives DF a funny look} Trey56 18:02, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Strong Badia?

When people mention Strong Badia in their emails, Strong Bad seems to have stopped bothering to either a) actually assume they mean Strong Badia, and set the email there or b) correct them. I think this is the first time he goes ahead and assumes "Strong Badia" means "Free Country USA". Worth noting? User:Tim333

No, he does it all the time. This is not the first. — Defender1031*Talk 18:07, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

When has he done it before? "local news" is set in strong badia. In "keep cool" there's a deliberate fourth wall break explaining the error. "unnatural" is set (at least at the start) in Strong Badia. In "mini-golf" he says "Strong Badia doesn't have a place of its own..." I could go on, but I can't think of a single time he's simply ignored the mention of Strong Badia. User:Tim333

Strong Badia vs. Bubs' Concession Stand

We have a strange reversal here. Strong Badia and Bubs' Concession Stand seem to have switched places! How do we mention this? Or do we? =] OptimisticFool 18:16, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Probably should just go on Inconsistencies within the Homestar Runner universe... Trey56 18:23, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

It's also possible that it's just the same, only viewed from the other side... — Capt. Ido Nos (Talk | contribs) 18:34, 10 December 2007 (UTC) (left unsigned)

But we can clearly see that the stand is facing us in both shots, as well as the relative positions of the fence and the flag. --Jay (Talk) 18:36, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

It's the same place, the difference is the ELEVATION and RANGE of the image. Carrot and Kazoo hill would be in the middle-right of the black area in the first picture, hence you wouldn't see it in that picture. (Imagine looking at a hill from above - it would appear flat). This of course doesn't change that the two seem to be in the wrong places. StarLion 18:41, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

And not just the fence and flag, but the tire as well (which IS there in nightlife, if you look closely). It's clear they somehow switched places. Anyway, the wording escapes me on how to phrase it on the inconsistencies page, so I'll let someone else do that. (And please sign your edits, Capt.) OptimisticFool 18:48, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

disdance

Strong Bad dances exactly like in the email disconnected. KlingOnMyDreams 19:14, 10 December 2007 (UTC) Should we make it in inside references? KlingOnMyDreams 19:16, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Removed Edit

I don't mind, just I'd like to know a reason. It is a real reference, I watch the show a great deal, but I'd at least like to know Stinkoblade 19:26, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Soma

Is it worth noting anything about Soma (Brave New World, etc.)? It's not exactly relevant, given it's just a strange pronunciation, but perhaps it's worthy of a mention.
