Transcript
STRONG BAD: I check, you check, we all check for email, check an email.
Dear Strong Bad,
Tell Strong Sad he is dumb and a crappy guy .
Your fan,
Anthony
from South Gate CA
{Strong Bad pronounces "CA" as "Cah".}
{He goes to Strong Sad's room. Strong Sad is sealing an envolope marked "To Anthony".}
STRONG BAD: Hey, stupid! You know some guy named Anthony from South Gate?
STRONG SAD: Oh yeah. I was just making him this card and gonna send him a hundred dolla-
STRONG BAD: Yeah, well he says you're dumb and a crappy guy.
STRONG SAD: Ohhhhhhhhh.
{Strong Sad starts to tear the envelope in half and Strong Bad sits back in front of his computer.}
STRONG BAD: {typing} Look Anthony, as much as I like insulting my stupid kid brother, I'm not your freaking message service, alright? Next time, you email him yourself. {stops typing} His email address is: {typing} depressio@homestarrunner.com {stops typing} Okay, so until next time, {singing} everybody email that guy, what guy? ME! Everybody email that guy!
{The Paper comes down, reading "Click here to e-mail strong bad".}
Easter Eggs
- For a while, emailing depressio@homestarrunner.com would result in this response:
Hello there, I hope your email wasn't full of awful, hurtful remarks like all the rest but I'll never know. I stopped reading emails a long time ago and wish my brother would stop giving out my address. Before you start making fun of me again, I'd like to share something with you. http://www.homestarrunner.com/wonderyears.html I hope this puts us on the same page of this dusty, many volumed set of ever-changing encyclopedias we call Life. -Strong Sad
This was considered the Chapmans' first Easter egg in an email. This page is now available via Strong Sad's Lament.
Fun Facts
Trivia
- This is the first time that Strong Bad pronounces a state's abbreviation.
- This is the first time Strong Sad is referred to as Strong Bad's little brother. (For the record, Strong Mad is the eldest sibling, Strong Bad is the middle one, and Strong Sad is the youngest.)
- This is Strong Sad's first appearance in a Strong Bad Email.
Remarks
- Strong Sad's Room is decorated with posters fitting the downer or Gothic nature of Strong Sad's character.
Real-World References
- The design of the paste container is similar to the one manufactured by Elmer's Products Inc.
- Strong Bad's intro song is a reference to the children's rhyme, "I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!"
DVD Version
- If you click on the hidden Strong Bad icon in the bottom left-hand corner of the Tandy 400's screen at the end of the email, it takes you to Strong Sad's shoebox full of childhood memories.
- This time, instead of being able to select which items you want to look at, it goes through each in turn. In addition, the card Strong Bad gave Strong Sad is read out loud by a young Strong Bad.
- The DVD version also has a hidden creator's commentary. Just switch over your DVD player's audio language when watching this email.
Commentary Transcript
(Commentary by: Mike Chapman, Matt Chapman)
MIKE: Back in the days when you could see his mouth in the reflection.
MATT: Yeah, what a dumb idea that was. Though I don't know, sometimes I think doing his mouth was less work—
MIKE: Well, if you don't move his head
MATT: Don't move his head, yeah.
MIKE: Yeah. Well, when we used to barely move his head, it was fine, but now his head's constantly waggin' around.
MATT: That's my fault. So, there's some
{laughter}
MATT: Look at his head! Strong Bad's head, man—
MIKE: Everyone's looking a little rough right here!
{laughter}
MATT: I don't know... Strong Sad's..
{laughter}
MIKE: That's a good sound effect.
MATT: Um... So what else? Depressio!
MIKE: There was the Some Kind of Wonderful—oh yes, Depressio. It used to be, if you emailed that email, it sent you a return email with the first Easter egg.
MATT: Hurry up and finish!
MIKE: {quickly} That was the first Easter egg ever! {quickly said gibberish}
