Ding! That Time of Year 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.

[edit] Martini - First overt alcohol reference?

  • Does the downloadable Strong Bad screensaver that advertises "Strong Beer: Alcoholic Cold Ones" count?
    • What about Coach Z's "Coldson Lite" in the sbemail 'Labor Day'?
    • And what about on http://www.thoraxcorp.com where on the staph page it says, "hear their drunken ramblings"?

[edit] SB's FIXING Southern Charm

  • Given that the Brothers Chaps are from Atlanta, its probably not intentional.
    • It could also explain why he thinks Southern Accents are hot.
      • No wonder Strong Bad has a mexican accent!
        • Well, he used to, I think he's grown out of it.
        • "Southern" is totally different from "Mexican". I assume this whole Mexican Wrestling thing had more to do with it, prime example probably being Marshmallow's Last Stand.

[edit] The Magic Hate Ball

The "Fun Fact" below was removed from the page. Although an in-article editorial by Douglas was out of place on the main page and should have been placed here, he was correct in saying that this is a huge stretch. The Orb of Aldur is just one more magic rock that the fantasy genre is overflowing with. Why can't this just be a common crystal ball? One that burnsss usss, precioussssss... Render

The "magic ball" page is possibly a reference to the 
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belgariad Belgariad] and 
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Malloreon Malloreon] book series, 
in which a magic orb (the "Orb of Aldur") burns out the face and left 
hand of an evil character who takes advantage of the orb's power.

[edit] Keying

Does anybody notice that in the store scenes, when Strong Bad draws over it, the man unlocking his car door now looks like he just keyed the car.

Yeah, I've noticed that. It seems a little awkward/irrelevant/minor to put in the transcript, though. --DorianGray

[edit] When and Where?

When was this made and where is it on the site? Retromaniac 22:19, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

December 12, 2004 and Decemberween In July. TheYellowDart(t/c)

[edit] Trodgor Reference

Since Trogdor can be seen on the wall in the Martinis part, shouldn't this page fall into the Trogdor Filmography Category? --Pants 3000 23:28, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Was Trogdor in the film? Put another way, if a photo of Robert DeNiro is seen in a film, is he in the cast? Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 23:56, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Guess who that voice sounds like

"The voiceover reading the original book sounds uncannily like Mike Chapman. " Do we reallly need that fact? I'm guessing quite a few of the voices on the site sound similar to one of TBC or the other, for certain reasons that I think you will understand. -132.183.140.154 01:41, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
