As opposed to the other kind of pikachu of course...

I've managed to get the 'D suffix as part of my group's lingo, but only two others in that group know of the site and none frequent it (as far as I know...). I think I may have turned them off by putting a link to 50K Racewalker too close to the words "most coolest game ever"

Once, someone called him.. What was that... "The Krill".
None of my friends really go on the internet, so if they know it, they know it from moi.

As much as I hate it when people get easy names wrong, "The Krill" is the best name ever.

Ergh, at the beginning of sixth grade, when I first got my Strong Bad bag, I saw this kid I know Chris, and he sees my bag and is all like "What's with the Mucha Lucha backpack?" >_>!!

I gotta tell ya... that's the funniest thing I've heard all afternoon.

not many people know about H*R at my school, which is really bad. of course. i had homestar as my background for a while, and i have a pic of the cheat on my wall, and people are always like "What's that? It's gay! your gay!" etc, etc.... one guy thinks homestar and the cheat are the same thing. it's cool though, because i showed H*R to my sister, and now she quotes it almost as much as i do!

Me and my 2 friends LOVED hsr so much untill this new kid came to my school. When my 2 friends found out he hated Homestar, they stopped liking it. I still love it, but when wear a shirt from it, he asks me why I like it. He is my friend but it kind of makes me mad that he only saw one thing(sb eamil #1) and doesn't like it.

I have a lot of friends who like it and a lot of friends who hate it.

One of my friends hates it because she insists it isn't "intelligent humor" whatever! I personally think Homestarrunner is very clever!

Then theres my other friend whenever I mention the word Homestar her imediate response it "ugh I hate that website" :rolleyes:

Wait, so if you said "I think muffins should return to their home star", they'd say "ugh I hate that website"?

There's maybe ten people in my school (of around 500) who know about HR, all of which love it of course.

And when I go on in study hall, if someone sees me, they don't say "that's gay" or anything, they usually laugh and say "what's that? it looks cool." So, my school is nice, I guess. :mrgreen:

ramrod · **Posted:** Fri Apr 29, 2005 2:23 am

Yeah, most people don't even nice my H*R related shirts. I will occassionally get a nod of approval though.

Once I wore my Trogdor shirt to a restraunt I had never been to before and the waiter said "TROGDOR! Rock on, man!"

Another time I wore my The Cheat shirt to Walmart and the same thing happened. Once somebody asked me if it was a "Poke Man" But I told them that A, They said it wrong and B, It was the Cheat. People who don't know don't ask.

Man, that would be one cool waiter. As for the Wal-Mart guy, they need to be harmed immediately.

Once I saw some guy wearing a Pom Pom t-shirt. I, of course, immediately said "Cool shirt!" I hope he knew that I knew who Pom Pom was and didn't think that I thought it was some sort of "poke man".

My dad thinks Homestar Runner is a "dumb web cartoon". He sighs irritatedly every time I mention it or talk hyperly about it with my brother. He would probably laugh if he saw even one of them, but somehow he always manages to walk in just as they're saying something dumb. Oh well.

Jimmie · **Posted:** Sat Apr 30, 2005 12:21 am

In my computer class, my teacher loves H*R.

But the kid who sits next to me hates it ignorantly. He said the PQ Movie Trailer was dumb, but I doubt he got that that was the point. He said that it's "gay", "dumb" and "a nerdfest". Sometimes he's like, "You were laughing at that? That was so dumb!". :rolleyes:

I think he's really just trying to insult me, and yes, he does more then just hate H*R.

The kids who introduced me to Homestar Runner are some of the coolest kids in school, so forget what that guy says.

Jitka · **Posted:** Sat Apr 30, 2005 12:43 am

Although H*R kinda is a nerdfest, but in a good way, you know?

I'm proud to be called a nerd, I can tell you that right now.

Kutchipatchi · **Posted:** Sat Apr 30, 2005 12:47 am

He. Hehe. Ha. Ha ha. It was funny, this other day, me and my friends saw a little fifth-fourth grader with a SB hoddie. So we kept pointing at him and yelling "Hey! That guy has a Strong Bad Sweatshirt!" and things like "Cool!" and "Awsome!". First he liked the attention, I guess, but then with some more "Cool!"s, he looked scared.

Overused&Underappreci · **Posted:** Sat Apr 30, 2005 1:44 am

Not really bullies. There's this one guy Thomas who is really annoyed at me and this other guy Brendan who thinks Pom Pom is the main character but other than that doesn't seem very much more ignorant than a regular site video.

I absolutely hate it when a "prenewb" as I say, sees my Strong Sad shirt and asks "What does Strong Sad mean?" completely unable to connect the character with the words. Or my Coach Z shirt and they ask me "What does the 'Z' stand for?" Honestly, I DON'T KNOW! His handle is simply "Coach Z"

Edit: Oh yeah comment: people who call allegedly pointless or idiotic things "gay" are some of the rudest people along with people who use the word "retarded" in a similar light. Different preferences and or mental disorders don't make you any less human, nor do they defect the emotions in you.

Yeah, I know. He really knows nothing aabout H*R, one of the best sites ever, if not THE best.

And....^ *reffering to the edit*...agreed.

There's this kid that walks past me on my way home every day... he's got the The Cheat Bookbag, but he always wears it so The Cheat faces inwards. Now, he's not in my core, so I have no idea what his problem is, but I just kind of know some other kid made him do it; if indirectly. So, I put my keychain on my bookbag for the whole world to see. I ask most of the kids in my class if they've ever been to H*R, and they say yes, but they never talk about it. And I tried to get my friend into it; and that was a bust... I'm all alone, y'know? It's so lame.

More than likely he was being teased for it, so he decided to do it that way.

People ask me all the time what's on my bookbag (which happens to be The Cheat). I just tell them it's The Cheat, but they get confused and leave. It's kind of fun, actually.

It's even better when you talk to them while doing a characters voice. Now that will get you a weird look.

I'd say about half the people at my school know about H*R. I wore my Strong Bad t-shirt to school one day, and somebody asked who that was on my shirt, and before I could open my mouth some other girl said, "Strong Bad". But most of the people don't really go there often, because this other girl remembered Strong Bad from the site but couldn't remember his name.

Hee hee, same here. I love doing his voice, and I got the accent down to a t, but I'm a girl so it kinda sounds sucky. :mrgreen:

I do an awesome impwession of Homestaw, though. And The Cheat.
