Transcript

{Cut to the main cast standing in the field, wearing their costumes.}

STRONG BAD: Uh, why does this feel... weird?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: What are you talking about? We stand around in the snow dressed in Decemberween-themed costumes every year. It's our thing! It's what we do!

STRONG BAD: Are you sure? I think we may have gotten our... "weens" crossed.

STRONG SAD: Can you please never say that again?

Fun Facts

Explanations

  • No Halloween toon was released in 2010. To compensate, the characters are dressed up for Decemberween instead, and Strong Bad says they "have their 'weens' crossed".

Remarks

  • This is the first toon featuring costumes since Homestarloween Party to not include Homsar.
  • This, like A Decemberween Mackerel, has a higher quality sound than most previous toons.
    • The toon's "screen" is also twice as big as usual, again like the previous toon.
  • Bubs's machine gun doesn't have a trigger.
  • The King of Town suggests in his Easter egg that he is around 303 years old. However, in space program, released five years earlier, he claimed to be in his sixties.
  • Inside Pom Pom's snow globe costume, The Cheat is on Strong Bad's left side (his left); whereas, in the field, The Cheat is on his right side (his right)
    • Additionally, The King of Town, Coach Z, and Strong Bad, are standing in slightly different places.

Fixed Goofs

  • When this toon was originally released, the King of Town's costume was misspelled "Heat Meiser" instead of the correct "Heat Miser". The error was corrected later that day.
  • The label over The Cheat originally omitted the word "as".
  • When clicking on the Strong Mad Easter egg, Bubs's teeth would lower and The Cheat's right arm would raise slightly. After Homestar finished talking, both characters returned to their default.
