I got this idea from the poto.com boards -- but, this is where you can recall when you've seen something Homestarrunner.com related when it was WAY out of it's element.

Here's mine:

Once, during our school's theme week, we had to dress up as a charector -- on my way to one class, I saw some seventh grader dressed as the Thnikkaman! I ran over to him and pointed out the obvious, and he's like, "Finally! Someone got it!" and we high fived.

Have any of you guys had any similar experiences?

Today, during our School Spirit Week (graughnck) it was Disney Day. I saw someone dressed with a red propeller cap and a red shirt, and, strangely, my first thought was Homestar Runner, then I thought, "Homestar Runner's not Disney"...so...

I found a small drawing of Trogdor in the glossary of my Grade 9 Science Textbook.

A long, LONG while ago, I was watching Ace of Cakes on Food Network, and at one point, Chef Duff just kinda yelled, "ARE YOU ASKING FOR A CHALLEEENNNGGEEEEE???!!!' and then pseudo-karate chopped a huge sheet cake. 'Twas epic.

I just saw this over on ESPN.com - considering the recent sbemail, I'm pretty sure that the page's writer is a fan of H*R (check the title of the grey box):

Well, during AP world history class last year my teacher noticed my Homestar runner themed binder front (we had to put a cover on it that related to history, so I put the "Do you Has" wallpaper on it cause it was about war, and there's a lot of war in history right?), and said "Wow, Homestar Runner? I remember that from when i was in college" =D

I'm not sure that's a ref, either. "Don't call it a comeback" is certainly used in H*R, but I doubt it's exclusive to it.

I was in a Wal-mart a while back and was looking at an arcade machine (I can't remember if it was a Star trek voyager, or some racing game ) but the credits scrolled on the screen and in the special thanks they put Homestarrunner.com or Homestsr Runner I don't remember.

The closest thing I ever saw was when something randomly generated Marzipan in a game.

The forum is going slow. and the last time i logged on was in august.

BUT ANYWAY! Someone was wearing a Strong Bad T-Shirt when I was still in elementary school (I think it was the one with strong bad on one side and homestarrunner.com on the other). I wanted to ask him "Is that from Homestarrunner.com?", but I didn't.

I was at a party with some friends when the hostess walked out of the kitchen with an orange bowl on her head. Everyone got real quiet and looked at her, and she repsonded with "Do you has what it takes?" I decided then that I should ask her out.

"Don't call it a comeback" is something H*R was referencing. It's the first line of LL Cool J's "Mama Said Knock You Out"
http://www.hrwiki.org/wiki/hremail3184#Real-World_References

I didn't see the Ace of Cakes guy saying the Stinkoman line, but I can confirm he's a fan because he was also on an episode of a show called "Man Caves" where they turned his basement into studio space for his band, and one of the things he had on the wall was a Pom Pom figure.

When I was in 7th grade a guy who had just moved here in computer class, a friend of mine just suddenly started going Email! Games! and then went, No, I'm sorry, the correct answer... was email.


the next day our math teacher started singing the theme to the Greatest American Hero, he joined in with the homestar runner halloween song thing. he, nor anyone who lives near me, has shown any knowledge of H*R since.

Not actually sure if it was on purpose, but i thought i found a HR reference on the xkcd webcomic.
I only noticed this recently: http://xkcd.com/341/
Notice at the end, it could be a reference to boxing gloves.

Post subject:  Re: Ever seen something H*R related where you least expected it?

Nah, I don't think it's a ref. They'd probably be more specific. Anyway, xkcd is a cool webcomic.

Well, one day I was driving to Taco Bell with my brother and we stopped at a stop sign and "Strong Badia. Pop: Tire" was written on it. It was the greatest thing ever.

I remember watching a recent ep of Red Vs Blue and Tucker said something about "I'm no geographist..." I don't know if it was just a random occurrence of the same portmanteau but it was extra funny because I immediately thought of Strong Bad saying it.

"Don't call it a comeback" is from an LL Cool J song dude.

A while back in art class, my friend asked to draw a dragon. So I drew Trogdor, narrating the steps. When I held it up for her to see she screamed, "TROOOOOGDOOOOOORRRRRR! Burninating the countryside, burninating the peasants, burninating all the people in the thatched roof COTTAGES! THATCHED ROOF COOTTAAAAAGESSSSSS!!!!"

When I looked at her with a weird look on my face (surprise, weirded out-edness) she's like, "what? My older brothers showed me the site like, forever ago."

Aaah, katie, you are AWESOME.

Well I think I completely failed to get someone to notice a Homestar reference where they would least expect it.

right at the beginning of a presentation for some sort of marketing project a yelled out "I'll take it! I'll take twelve!"
