[edit] Weekdays at X:30

In the Brothers Chaps' projects (both Homestar Runner and Two More Eggs), the same specific gruff, raspy voice will announce the time of certain TV shows during their commercials or theme songs (with the day of the week followed by the time), and occasionally comment on the quality of the show. The time is usually "weekdays", and the time always ends with :30.

[edit] Appearances

[edit] Intelligent Homestar Runner

Homestar Runner often does stupid things, so many that it's nearly impossible to list them all. However, Homestar's stupidity occasionally becomes so deep that it flips back to smart, and Homestar can demonstrate an unusual amount of intelligence or self-awareness.

[edit] Appearances

• Email the bet — Homestar makes a bet with Strong Bad that he is cool, and demonstrates by wearing a pair of sunglasses and saying "'sup?". This is sufficient to impress Strong Bad and win the bet, so Homestar continues the behavior, much to the irritation of Marzipan.
• Email stupid stuff — Homestar outsmarts Strong Bad by pretending to be dumb, using reverse psychology to make Strong Bad say something stupid, winning Grumblecakes from Kevin Grumbles.

[edit] Parts Unknown

"Parts Unknown" is a vague, fictional location. In professional wrestling, a wrestler may be billed as hailing from "parts unknown" to add to their mystique. Strong Mad and Strong Bad have occasionally been described as hailing from those unknown parts of the world.
