This one was okay, but it didn't make me laugh much. The way they worked in the DNA evidence was pretty funny, though.

That was pretty good. The Cheat acting like a seal cracked me up. Strong Bad rejecting Malinko's drawing of comics made me think of the Fanstuff Wiki. Heh.

So true, so true.
And what's this with Strong Sad getting revenge?

Holy crap, I actually laughed at this one.

SERIOUSLY.

I haven't laughed at Homestar in like, a year.

Nice. HR had some clever lines. And, of course... Senor Cardgage. And yes, domestic beer is terrible.

"Crystal clear like homemade beer!" XD
Not especially funny, but the whole barbed wire sequence and :sad: finally fighting back is a plus.

I was looking for it the two times I saw it and must of completly missed it... where was it?

Anyway I found this one somewhat humorous with its firivolus lawsuits,
SB2O, the cheat the seal, bad drawings, copy of said bad drawing. Yeah it was humorus.

The DNA evidence is seen by clicking on the wall outlets at the end of the email. And it was one of the funnier parts of the email. 3.5/5

HAHA! Strong Sad finally gets revenge.

9/10 for Senor Cardgage.

That's it the DNA evidence officialy means something. They wouldn't put it in an easter egg like this if it didn't.

They better do something with this gag soon, otherwise it's just going to get drawn out and stale like an Uwe Boll film.

It was a really funny e-mail but it had a rough landing I mean the worst easter egg is the one about an inside joke, I laughed pretty hard at malinko drinko though.

It was okay. Good moments and bad moments were scattered around it. I liked everything likeable and disliked everything dislikeable.

DNA evidence better be connected with email 173 or I'll cry.

Man, I haven't seen legal action that hot since "rampage".

There was a lot I liked about that one. Strong Bad and The Cheat "suing" Homestar ("Hooray! The orders are violently flying in!"), "Note to self: Get bigger notebook" (and the follow-up), Strong Bad and The Cheat covered in barbed wire and doing a cop show parody, Strong Sad "suing" Strong Bad and the Cheat with snowballs, the gratuitous Senor Cardgage Cameo, and the most intentionally corny and tacked-on reference to DNA evidence yet.

I laughed so hard at the DNA evidence! I was listening for it the entire time, but it never came. Then when the easter egg happened, it was totally unexpected!

Okay, ripberger, you really need to wean yourself off of H*R.com if you're getting this emotional about it.

Wow, this one was funny. I only realized at the end that they hadn't mentioned the DNA evidence, and then...I found the easter egg. One of the better ones recently IMHO.

Aw, man! That was SO funny! I loved:
....................................DNA, evidence.

And I thought of :senor: the second I saw that melty candy bar... I mean, settlement...

On a scale from one to awesome= super great

It was pretty good. No one thing really stood out for me, but I definitely liked it.

First view: It was like an album where no one song could really stand alone, but the whole thing really works and is worth listening to. But I forgot about the whole DNA Evidence running gag, so to have the absolute last thing I see in the email be Homestar grudgingly forcing a DNA Evidence ref in... Serious LOL.

Second view: The DNA Evidence thing obviously didn't work so well on time #2 because it was expected, and the rest felt average. But I liked Strong Sad's parts in this one a lot.

lol, shotgun w/ BAT tapped on.

So... I actually found this to be okay, like a 5 but for some reason, I found the DNA evidence to be really funny. 6.5.

Something I just noticed... it's probably not an intentional reference, but does the "Rough Copy" sequence remind anyone else of the intros to the various episodes of the new Sam and Max game?

Now that you mentioned it, it kinda does.

I also noticed that Strong Sad made appearances (including voice in what I want) in ten sbemails in a row. Interesting. Looks like Strong Bad has answered 4 emails beginning with "Dear" in a row, and I think he should give that bit a rest for a while because he's answered more emails starting with Dear in the Lappy era than in the two early eras.

As far as I'm concerned, DNA evidence will be mentioned at least two more times because I, too, think it's leading up to The Paper's supposed departure.

The fact that Homestar seemed fed up with the DNA evidence gag implies to me that this is the last we'll hear of it.

To me, it implies that they totally forgot about it when they finished the email, then they added it in at the last moment as an easter egg while still preserving humor. They're just funny like that.

This was funny from start to end. The Senor Cardgage and DNA evidence both made this e-mail all that much more enjoyable.

Ok...maybe I'm just slow on the uptake. But I hardly laughed on this one. Except when the Cheat shows Malinko's drawings and they dress in barbedwire. Other than that, I just didn't get it. Maybe b/c I hate trial lawyers and their lawsuits... What's with the DNA evidence? Whatev...

This one was OK to me. Most of it just kind of ran together for me, and nothing in particular really stood out except for a few isolated things. However, what I liked, I REALLY liked: I both simultaneously laughed and cheered when Strong Sad got his reveeeenge! on Strong Bad (and simultaneously thought of that one Calvin and Hobbes strip), and the DNA evidence gag was FANTASTIC. Too bad I'm expecting it now.
