Will you save your last email for Strong Bad /co/?
>>80871503
Did he sell eggs?
>>80871518
>LORD NO!
>>80871516even lorder no
>>80871530
But he couldn't and he would't and he shouldn't so he stapled it DOWN!
>>80871515
That "Dig to China with your ears contest" is one of my favourite SBmail scenes. I think it's the way Strong Bad just plainly says "This is just about the second to third or, worst contest I've ever heard of".
>>80872451
"Second or third to worst"
which is even funnier
Bump.
Why haven't they made another Homestar Runner cartoon recently?
>>80874468
theyre a bit busy. Two More Eggs is funny shit though
at least we know they havent given up. homestar has just kinda become a 'have a special a few times a year' thing like charlie brown and garfield used to be
Should I start watching?
>>80874545
yes. all of it. in order. thankfully the wiki has this.
>>80874520

uhh important to keep in mind that it takes a while for it to get really good. So just in case you're a little bored by Trevor the Vampire or Tape Leg, you're in good company.
but by the time you get to Dragon you will understand why it's all great.
>>80871515

I would if he still answered them regularly.

>>80874823
Probably around Strong Bad Sings in that list is where it starts having a semblance of what it becomes. gimmicks is about where the humor starts to pick up.
>>80875619
and yet every so often they make reference to the crummy old days, you should still really watch them. in any case theyre over very quickly due to short running times
>>80874520
Two More Eggs is shit, it has none of the charm.
>>80875619
I think most of the early toons still have a lot of charm, but I can see how someone walking in with huge expectations would be disappointed by those.
>>80875653
>none of the charm
you're gonna tell me hector and kovitch has none of the charm? none of that nostalgic oldtimey 'kids talking to other kids about movies/games/cardgames' feel we enjoy from homestar?
the utterly dead-on british styles of trauncles?
the totally homsaresque antics of dooble? (now I will name nine cars!)
the biting satire of CGI palz and Hot Dip? you're not enjoying any of that?
>>80874468
Dude, they made a new Halloween toon last October. That's a much higher update frequency than they've had in years.
...
Maybe Gravity Falls dying means we could get more frequent updates.
LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO JUUUUUUUMMMPPP
>>80876820
I would've rather had a new decemberween toon.
>>80876820
They're not going to update the site all that much as long as Two More Eggs is around.
>>80876999
i'm sure they're a-cookin-a somethin' up for this year
>>80877006
Will it be more than "once every four years"?
Because I can accept long breaks. I weathered The Coming of The Child.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tsa4ogtBiv0
Anyone for some mashups?
I really wish they would make some more merchandising.I deeply regret not buying a kick the cheat, you can't even find that shit on ebay.
>>80871111
>senor cardgage gets quads
i'm pleased
>>80877006
>>80877098
>>80876999
>>80877152
They're probably gonna do some holiday shorts, then maybe, just maaayyybe someday they will come back for real. Maybe not weekly emails, but at least monthly would be an improvement. I hear that some years ago HR was making enough money from merchandise that the Chaps quit their full time jobs, when was that peak in popularity? If they start regularly updating again they'll realize how much moola they can make from these cartoons. I mean, their baby that killed the updates is at least 6 years old now.
>>80877152
heh. remember when Count Your Sheep went through that, briefly came back with lots of big plans and a new plot arc, then disappeared as mysteriously as it came?
>>80877190
it's weird that all these custom plush makers around.. none of them know how to put a speaker in the thing

>>80877298
>I most endearingly belt a quadrant, craptain
>>80877309
i don't think the site just stops making money despite lack of new updates. tvcartoon residuals probably give them more. well matt anyway
what i wanna know is what it's like for the kids. what's it like having parents who are actually interesting, not just boring do-nothing workaholics with boring jobs? i know Little Girl had a cute weeby youtube channel a few years back, she's gotta be a grown-ass woman by now.. what the fuck is it like to have been immortalized in some crummy low-quality videos as a wee girl hitting a puppet?
>>80871515
>The geniuses behind She-Hulk
>>80877318
You know what else is weird? Also somewhat disappointing.No lego Homestar sets.
>>80877429
that was an oddly low blow
then again SB once lambasted majora's mask for the time limit thing, which is the equivalent of 'i can't find the kokiri sword this game sux'
>>80877448
hahaha. lego is such a fucking weird thing right now isnt it. how would you even.. and why..
>>80877452
I always took that as strong bad getting mad at it instead of the brothers chaps. It seems like exactly the sort of thing that would piss specifically strong bad off.
>>80877473
You know there's shit like Simpsons sets, right?
>>80877480
yeah if it wasnt for how it was phrased i would think the same. but it sounded like it was the chaps talking to me. most stuff SB says yeah it's obviously just him and his very limited skillset talking.
>>80877499
right? isnt that fucking weird?
in their case they all get custom heads and some dumb building sets and then that's all you need sort of. but with homestar you couldnt even do that.
>>80875712
Gankroar's my favorite.
>>80877452
Well I mean he's not wrong, Majora's Mask had some terrible design decisions and She-Hulk is an awful character concept.
>>80877536
And why couldn't you do that?
>>80877537
he's totally Scantron. I wonder if they had that prototype lying around
>>80877566
i guess in retrospect she is a bad concept, but
hey what design decisions? i mean okay pamela's dad was creepy looking but.. that was the idea.
>>80877452
>>80877429
On the commentary track they apologized for that joke because they apparently weren't really familiar with character and didn't realize that she's actually pretty well written. They were just making of the concept of the character and her name
>>80877584
custom heads would be inadequate for all characters other than perhaps bubs. and maybe strong bad if you're really generous. and there are no significant buildings, vehicles, or other buildables in free country USA. not that wouldnt have to be 90 percent original parts.
i mean okay you could make bubs' concession stand, but then what? the stick would have to be its own piece. i guess you could make strong badia.. the strongbros house isnt really consistent or distinctive enough to make a very good lego set.. i just don't see this working.
>>80877605
yeah that's what i figured. man i love their commentary. i have all the deebeedees but who wants to load one of those up just to listen to commentary?
>>80877648
There's the design for his house from the game, and for cars there's always shit like the Gremlin.
Hell, they already make lego bodies with boxing gloves too.
>>80871515
>Well Ms Dozer
>>80877683
oh yeah because lego will totally let them make the gremlin
>>80877605
See, I don't think it warrants an apology because Strong Badman's adventures in rent control could've come right out of Byrne's run on She-Hulk. I'm actually kind of surprised to hear that they made the joke in ignorance because it really came across as spot-on.
>>80877808
There's literally no reason why they wouldn't.
>>80871515
>Zounds! A sarsaparilla swimming hole!
>Last one in's a Freemason
As a Freemason, this is humorous to me.
>>80877863
except, yknow, licensing.
>>80877981
please don't have my family killed
>>80878359
The company that made that car died 28 years ago.
>>80878407
whoa, so just anyone can use the likeness of the AMC gremlin whenever they want? or any other cars by that brand?
shit, someone tell transformers. how fucking hilarious would it be to have a guy that turns into a gremlin, and his personality is basically that of Malfunctioning Eddie, the used car salesman robot from futurama
>>80872507
>the first worst was the holding your grapes contest
>the second was the marshmallow's last stand wrestlig match
just realized this
>>80878506
Well, there was one in one of the Cars movies.
I think.
>>80878359
Its alright, Friend, we only get 3 masonic kill tokens a year and I've already used mine up.
>>80878844
wow, that shriner clown that threatened us before would have used up all three tokens. gotta admire the balls
cant blame him either. mom is hot. i could see wanting to kill her family and steal her.
I have practically every toon memorized word for word
>>80880359
it helps if theyre already written the way i talk
like i can pretty much ad-lib Death Metal for anyone who needs it explained to them how death metal works and how it differs from hair metal
Can someone upload all of Strong Bad Sings?
There's no active torrents for it
>>80880432
it's on youtube man
>>80880432
>Been a Homestar fan since early 04
>Never heard Strong Bad Sings because I assumed it was just a collection of songs from the site

fuck, you just reminded me I have the cd somewhere around here

>>80882154
maybe someone else is jamming out to it now thanks to you
>>80875315
I will be starting a campaign for this, when it comes.
>>80877588
The save system is a rancid bloody mess and it's absolute agony to try and deal with. There's a good game in there but I'll never fault anybody for being frustrated with the surface mechanics.
>>80882055
>>80871515
I'd give anything to go back to the time this cartoon was released with the knowledge I have currently accrued.
>>80871016
>You will never experience the weekly joy of coming home after a long day of school and enjoying the newest Homestar Runner update again
>You will never gush over Homestar Runner with your best friend who introduced you to it again

There are so many things I miss from my adolescence. This is one of the things that hurt the most.
>>80877413
>>80877309
The money they got from the website was generated entirely through the store. Their website would only generate money if it had ads on it, and thankfully they've been bro-tier about that stuff.
As for when they were most popular? Kind of mid 2000's I think. It was before youtube and facebook had exploded, and the internet was still largely unexplored. Most of it was word of mouth, and it was most popular with college kids and cubicle critters (people with relatively fast internet).
>>80882055
>you will never relive internet culture between 2006 and 2009
God if only I could relive that time with what I know now.
