DongleGoblin, it is entirely inappropriate for you to have the word "ass" on your user page. Here at the wiki, we keep pages family-appropriate. Please replace/remove it at once.

[edit] Events

Hey there DongleGoblin — I'm not sure I see how emails like homsar, dragon, comic, etc. are events in the Homestar Runner universe. What makes you think they are? Trey56 23:05, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Those emails mark the first appearances of either chracters(Stinkoman, Trogdor, etc...), or the creation of new series or places(TGS, Strong Badia, etc...).

In real-life, yes, but not in the sense that Category:Events defines them, I don't think — that is, they're not important events in the Homestar Runner universe. Trey56 23:09, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, I understand the logic, but it's not about events in the evolution of the HR universe, it's about events that actually take place in said universe. DeFender1031 23:10, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
I think he's putting those emails in the "Events" catagory because major events happened in each (Homsar, Trogdor, etc.). I agree with Trey's inquiry though, in that I don't think they quite belong there either... Whole emails don't quite qualify I believe. That's why I added that History of homestarrunner.com link.

[edit] Cursing

DongleGoblin, it is entirely inappropriate for you to have the word "ass" on your user page. Here at the wiki, we keep pages family-appropriate. Please replace/remove it at once.

Best Wishes,
