Hey gang. I was just wondering if anybody out there likes the Homestar Runner web cartoon. It's awesome to the max IMO. If you have no clue as to what I'm talking about, the site may be found here. For some of the best comedy on the site, you'd wanna check out the Strong Bad Emails.

I'd really like to hear from other fans of the toon, or just your opinions of it.

Enjoy!

I've been a big Homestar Runner fan for a while now. It's one of my favorite things about the internet in general. I probably quote something from Homestar Runner at least once a day, if not more.

And yeah, Strong Bad E-mails are probably my favorite part of the site.

Strong Bad is hilarious. Strong Sad is good fun too, and Homestar sounds like Brak from Space Ghost. Good stuff.

The clouds ran away, opened up the sky
And one by one I watched every constellation die
And there I was frozen, standing in my backyard
Face to face, eye to eye, staring at the last star
I should've known, walked all the way home
To find that she wasn't here, I'm still all alone

-Atmosphere "Always Coming Back Home to You"

Homestarrunner 0wnz my soul... I can recite at least half of the most excellent SBE's just because I watch them so damn much. Teen Girl Squad = best online comic EVAR... Best Strong Bad Email has to be either the one where Strong Bad writes a kids book (Everyone is different, no two people are not on fire.... awww), the local news (`~Ohhh, if you want to be possessive, it's just I-T-S, but if it's supposed to be a contraction than it's I-T-apostraphe-S, scalawag~`), or the 50th email (How do you manage the telegramophone whilst wearing gentlemen sport gloves, signed Lord Ellsington Halstingdingdingworth)... and let me just say that Homsar is my hero.... because I too was raised by a cup of coffee... May I just say that HSR might just be the best site online ... er, second best site online, of course is what I meant >_>

Dear God-Emperor, what is this insanity?!


Please tell me what this is supposed to be. all i did was look at the e-mail things and they were kinda... bad.

Maybe you should look at some more, Del?

I really like that site as well. :-) It's just so fun.

I had an old signature. Now I've changed it.

You like Anime, Del? If you do, and even if you don't, check this SB Email out: Japanese Cartoon
This was the first one that I saw, and it got me hooked.

I likes me some Homestar Runner, I do indeedy. My friend pointed me at the Strong Bad E-mails several months ago. The first one I looked at was "dragon", natch. TROGDOOOOR!! My favorite one so far has to be "guitar". Jug jigga jug jigga jug jigga jug jigga jug jigga JAH JAAAAH...

I go to UCSC, and lately I've been seeing people on campus wearing Homestar Runner gear. I've seen two people wearing Trogdor shirts and one guy wearing one of those Strong Bad knit caps. They make me happy.

Oh man thanks, for some reason I completely forgot about the japanese cartoon one. Wow is that hilarious. So realistic too. I need to go watch it again...and maybe go burninate the countryside or something.

They haven't updated in two weeks! I'm getting irritated and just HOPING that they're saving up for a big New Years' blast or something. I love the site so much.

Hey, put the cellphone down for a while
In the night there is something wild
Can you hear it breathing?
And hey, put the laptop down for a while
In the night there is something wild
I feel it, it's leaving me

homestar runner is a great site that i love to visit every here and there.

my favorites of the site are: trogdor, teen girl squad, and the ad-lib section(can't remember what it's called)

man i love that site

--------------------

"Have you ever seen a baby do that before?"

One word: Homsar! Homsar is the best character on that site!! Next to Strong Bad and The Cheat! "Ohh no! I think this is my favorite!" So great.

The caffine email is also good too. Just as good as dragon and japanese cartoon ("Hahaha, Pan-Pan is fat! Haha, he fell on you! "Haha, he's a good bear! Love it! ) Nothing like watching Strong Sad on a sugar rush... "IFEELGREATIFEELGREATIFEELGREATIFEELBAD!!" *laughs*

Has anyone here ever tried writing Strong Bad an email? I've tried twice. I keep saying I'm going to conquer Strong Badia.

yeah, I've written SB an email, but he didn't write back BUT, I did email the guys who made it, the brothers Chaps (Mike and Matt Chapman), and they did email me back. Pretty awesome.

My favorite episodes are i she be, spring cleaning, sb_email 22, sisters, 50 emails, japanese cartoon, dragon, and caffeine. All classics.

That site is the most hilarious thing on the Internet. Period. My friend introduced it to me back in September, after I got back from deployment. I've been a total addict ever since. The two of us can't go five minutes without quoting something from there when we're together. Utterly hilarious stuff. The Strong Bad e-mails are the best, of course, although many of the other cartoons are good too, along with the shorts. Marzipan's answering machine is really good for a laugh, too (the best one is when Stinkoman called ). Favorite e-mails include Trogdor, Japanese cartoon, children's book, and the recent one where he gave Strong Sad caffeine (I absolutely died when he began slapping Coach Z around...seriously, I could hardly breathe). So, yeah, I love that place. And I too am getting frustrated at the lack of a recent update. Hopefully they've got something good coming up. One of the things I find most hilarious about Strong Bad is his attention to bad grammar and spelling, because it's something to which I can closely relate.

I dare anyone to get farther than me in the Trogdor game. Level 21, with over 2000 points.

"So I'm gonna have to jump!!!!"

While were on H*R and SB topic, does anybody have a complete transcript of what Strong Sad says in all his crazee parts in 'Caffeine"? Some of it's pretty fast, so it's hard to tell what he's saying.

Thanks in advance.

The homestar interview is the best toon. The one message on Marzipan's answering machine in which Homestar calls her a hippie is pretty good too.

What the? Darnit! Oh well, I kind of have a soft spot for Strong Sad. (Especially after seeing his secret drawer.)

A little late, but my favorite emails are japanese cartoon, caffeine, dragon, crazy cartoon (Eh, Steve!), caper, personal favorites, ghosts, The Show (mostly for the Marshie commercial), and your friends. Not nesessarily in that order.

*Mouth hangs open in astonishment* Alright, they must've used my email sometime while making that cartoon. It can't be a coinsidence... The subject line was even used in the cartoon. (Well, that could be a coinsidence...)

Eh, either way I feel sort of honored. Quit looking at me like I'm a psycho... I didn't say you had to believe me.

The Strongbad Emails are awesome! My friends and I will sometimes just break out into the techno for no reason during lunch. And I just want to finish up by saying - FANGORIOUSLY!

Strongbad email rocks, I check it monthly
My fav emails are the Techno,Kid's book,Japanese cartoon, and Video game

I think strongbad is pretty awesome. I like ALMOST all of the strong bad e-mails. some I don't care for. I must say, if it has strongbad and/or homestar I will watch it. I think my two favorite e-mails are Stunt double and suntan and techno and CGNU and...oh wait..thats more then two. ok, I like just about all of them. Later, Beff

I check that site on a weekly basis. Its great with humour. My favorite sb e-mail is the one with Trogdor: The burninator, and the stunt double one. This comedy is priceless.

Yeah, I barely post.
