What’s that fourth thing? “Dentist” misspelled?īraden’s other favorite thing from this cartoon: “Oh, I doubt it I drove.” “Don’t you talk to me!” To me, the funniest part is when he brings out his “resume” ( not resumé), and it’s ALMOST a shopping list. The whole cartoon “The Interview” is very funny, especially for how early in the site’s history it was made. This is another example of 1) The Brothers Chaps’s great ability for small, detailed humor, and 2) how I spent 2002-2004 visiting and talking about this site WAY too much. The idea that something’s slogan would be “But I still drinks it!” kills me. As far as I know (or can remember), this was only mentioned in a single cartoon (Strong Bad Email #95: The Bet), but its impact was enough to stick with me.īraden’s favorite mention of this: Click on the word “losers” after Strong Bad leaves his computer. Also they didn’t all die Kenny-style like they do in almost all the other ones.īraden’s favorite moment: “You must be girls.” Butter-Daīutter-Da is a wonderful representation of the many things from Homestar Runner that makes you go, “How in the world did they come up with that?” but yet laughing hysterically about it at the same time. The later ones are okay, but this was still early enough in the game that coherent narative wasn’t necessary yet, and it was that kind of nonsense that made it really work. Why issue 2? Because the first one was from a Strong Bad Email, and it was a shock at the time when #2 came out, indicating that it would be a regular feature on its own. So, yes, I love Trogdor, but no, I will not list him.) Mentioning that in this list would be like saying, “Oh, I’m such a huge U2 fan! I just get so excited when ‘With or Without You’ plays on the radio!” or “No show is funnier than Seinfeld! I mean, the Soup Nazi?! That episode is so funny!” It’s just ingenuous. (Oh, and no–Trogdor will not be among these. Be sure to tell me of any of your favorites in the comments. This is by no means exhaustive, because I know there’s TONS of more things I love and I’m leaving out. I’ve spent four consecutive lunch breaks and lots of time at home I could have spent playing guitar or Half Life 2 clicking the “Rando” button on, being reminded of many of my favorite moments, features, aspects, and whatevers of this genius cartoon series. So, with the exception of very seldom updates, the site remains the same as it was around the end of Quarter 3, 2009.īut enough of my yapping. the younger one, that does the voices, I think). Unfortunately, site creators-and-everything-else, Mike and Matt Chapman, have gone on a hiatus (I think after the birth of Mike or Matt’s kid don’t remember which one. I’ve periodically gone six months to two years at a time not checking the site, and what always amazed me is that, when I came back and got caught up, the same caliber of quality humor remained.
what’s your deal? Get with it! It’s been something like eight or nine years since I was first told about it by my then-future-now-past roommate, J-Rob.
If you’ve never heard of or gotten into Homestar Runner. This has been a long time coming, and not oft-enough done, in my opinion: a blog post celebrating the greatness that is Homestar Runner!
