Talk:Everybody Knows It

From Homestar Runner Wiki

Everybody Knows It is a featured article, which means it showcases an important part of the Homestar Runner body of work and/or highlights the fine work of this wiki. We also might just think it's cool. If you see a way this page can be updated or improved without compromising previous work, feel free to contribute.

It's driving me nuts. Which cartoon is this from? I've seen it but can't remember. I believe it's at the end of one; the Cheat and Homestar are together, and Homestar is singing while the Cheat plays in a rare moment of comraderie.

You're right and wrong at the same time - it's originally from an easter egg in labor day. The whole thing with The Cheat and Homestar together is this 'toon and no other. -- Jay 02:00, 20 Nov 2004 (MST)

[edit] Closed STUFF

These were on the STUFF page and declined. If you wish to contest these, leave a note here, but don't allow it to be confused with any of the original votes.

[edit] Doesn't wear shoes? (Declined)

Like Strong Bad's "mask", Homestar's "shoes" are really his feet. So technically, he doesn't wear shoes.

• Weak decline. Has there ever been any evidence that homestar really doesn't wear shoes? I think those are his shoes. Whatever. If you gimme any proof that Homestar doesn't wear shoes, I'll switch my answer. →evin290 06:35, 21 Feb 2005 (MST)
  • Second. I don't think the slippers in Homestar Presents: Presents are evidence one way or the other, since it could be argued that those are being worn over his shoes/feet, but on the other hand I've never seen anything to indicate that Homestar's shoes are his feet. -Alun Clewe 15:36, 21 Feb 2005 (MST)
• Decline. Homestar wears slippers in Homestar Presents: Presents. Therefore his shoes are just shoes. →Star4ever 12:06, 21 Feb 2005 (MST)
• Second. What does this have to do with the 'Everybody Knows It' cartoon, anyway? kerrek slaya 14:37, 21 Feb 2005 (MST)kerrek_slaya
  • At the end, Homestar says something about the cheat putting dog food in his shoes →evin290 15:40, 21 Feb 2005 (MST)
• Weak Decline In New Boots when Homestar comes on, he askes for his shoe, and is wearing a sock. However, it is cheat made, so there is some question.--Saddy 17:56, 23 Feb 2005 (MST)
  • Also, if the cheat gave strong Bad underwears, ya never know.
    • Decline. When Strong Bad critizes the Cheat's Cartoon in New Boots, he never mentions the sock incident. There is absolutely no evidence that Homestar's shoes are his feet. mibluvr13
• Decline Homestar could just as easily have shoes as not, but we do know he wears bunny slippers. We shall never know for sure. - Walking Armless

[edit] Easter Egg Hunt

Has anyone else ever seen these Easter Eggs that this page talks of? I'm kinda frustrated coz it's the only Easter Egg(s) I've not been able to activate on the whole of the site. Does anyone have any screencaptures or external links to them, maybe? Or are they just no longer there?

Here they are: (Remeber to access them through this page.)

Many thanks, friend. It seems I was using the Flash file version, and that's why I couldn't find them... Oops.

Are they still there now that the backround changed?

Hmm. Apparently not... Not from where I'm sitting. (Random trivia: I'm the one who originally posed this question, way back when I was just an IP.) --DorianGray

[edit] Shoes fun fact

This concerns that same fun fact from the really old STUFF up there, but for a different reason. E.L. Cool took the fact off the page for being awkward, but it may or may not need to go. "Homestar mentions his ambiguous shoes" could refer to the fact that you can't see his shoes in this toon, making it a Puppet Stuff-exclusive Lack of Visible Body Parts, or it could be assuming he looks like normal and just offhandedly mentions his shoes. Thoughts? -Brightstar Shiner 21:14, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, when mentioning facts that are worded like that, it's usually link to an existing running gag, item, or inside joke page. Like this other fact from the article: "This toon contains an instance of mashing." Now this is just a remark about something which is peculiar, which is not so rare in the Homestar Runner world. It's like saying that stating that in Some Stupid Turkey The King of Town's body becomes inhumanly big. Yes, it's true, but we can't list everything that doesn't make sense in the fun fact — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 21:26, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
