I am guessing, ChickenMovieMan, that you were a huge fan of "miniature golf?" :)

(On a related note, it seems to me that we SBEmail fans are becoming a rather jaded bunch. Me, I'm still of the opinion that even an average SBEmail is worth watching!)

That's why I hated it so much, perhaps. I'm in college even and it wasn't even funny.

wow, no body liked this? This surprisingly was my favourite in a while. I loved everything. specially the easter eggs and the cartoon cliche of being in a fake bush! My opinion is weird.

I enjoyed this e-mail. Any e-mail that stands out with a few awesome memorable moments deserves recognition.

Hmmm, I'm not really a fan, maybe it's because the speakers I had were trash when I saw this, as was the monitor, but it wasn't that memorable, I liked the whole email over all, but it really like...say...original, as in, the whole email was predicable, and we saw all this sort of thing before, it just didn't feel new, like when you watch Dragon for the forth time, you can sort of tell.

Anywho, decent email, but too predictable.

Looks like the (presumably) hot college girls stopped their be-pantied pillowfighting.
OK e-mail, not horrible, but not too memorable, either.

I suppose people not in college would not get most of the humor in this email. At least it's a college student writing and not a twelve years old boy! Unfortunately not a sorority chick like Strong bad requested last week!

Thanks to Imaginer for the tip, although my bike is GONE now so it does me little good... I hope the thief enjoys Mountain unicycling. ( visualizes a man in a cat burglar outfit riding the ulitmate wheelie, then going tuchus over teakettle upon hitting a gopher hole) heh heh

I genuinely laughed out loud during the whole "bush" thing, and seeing all those "bush" variations. Funniest moment in a sbemail for a while. :p

Although, the "petition" gag got old - pretty quickly - especially in the final easter egg. The rest of it was pretty funny tho. :D

8/10

Good e-mail. I loved Strong Mad as the textile factory.

I'm surprised reception on this sbemail has been so lukewarm. I actually laughed out loud a couple of times. I loved the cat burgaling scene, and the whole "bromide" thing was pretty hilarious. Also, this is the first time I've seen :sm: in AGES. Seriously, where has he gone?

Good email. 8/10

It is nice to know Strong Bad's receiving emails that spell his name right. And has someone noticed that it's the second one in a row to come from the same state? I didn't notice that until yesterday.

Funniest easter egg I've seen, too.
:hr: (robotic voice) Garbage. Garbage. Rubbush. Um...Murder weapon.

It makes me laugh to see him in a trash can with his feet coming from the bottom.

Is it me? Or has marzipan gotten a little more sinister over the past couple of toons, eh, maybe she needs it, too ned flanderish in a lot of ways, but now it seems she's taking a stand.

Great email, loved the little easter egg, at the end, and of course strong bad trying to fool pom-pom into thinking he's a shrub...er, bush.

However, strong bad stuck to the couch...again? :-| It's like oreo cakesters, extremely pointless.

I'll give it an 8.7/10

Still, great email though.

EDIT: Also, liked the SM as a textile factory and Bubs saying "Sure thing, bush."

Kinda makes you think...

It wasn't very good, IMO. It was kind of boring and not very consistently funny.

A little disappointing, though the whole petition scene was a little funny.

"Meal plan!"

I suppose it's OK. The main part that had me laughing, and I don't know whether this was intentional, was hearing Strong Bad say "Bush" a lot.

She says "Cool man, free bike", implying that she's going to take it. ...How would she ride it, though?

:sad: : Well, if you had agreed to play Cats the musical, instead of cat-burglar, maybe you wouldn't be stuck to the back of the couch again.

:sb: : I would rather die.

Not only college humor, but jokes at the expense of Andrew Lloyd Webber's disasterpiece musical too!!! This email must have been written just for me. I feel way more special than I ought to. :cheatgrin: LOVES IT!

It was pretty solid. Yay for college humor! Plus, the Homestar Easter egg made me laugh.

The college parts were all-too-true, almost to the point of not being funny (but they were still funny). Mad props for the egg, I hope the Homestar robot trashcan comes back again.

At first I wasn't crazy about this email but watching it again, it's above average. Liked the easter egg and when Strong Mad turned into a factory. It was also funny when Strong Bad couldn't get off of the couch. 4/5.
