That was great, i loved strong mads basket balls.

And was it just me or was the crumpeled paper at the end a sign of montoge being true?

Yep, there goes The Paper. I was expecting it to just have been a one-shot gag. I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be one but the hubbub surrounding it convinced TBC to actually do it.

It looks like it might be.

The Cheat's Easter Egg was funny.

WTPF??? IS THIS TRULY THE END OF THE PAPER!?!?!

Oooh, The Paper, why must you leave us....?

Hmm....this one was definitely not a big favorite. Best parts:

:sb: No! I meant mercenaries! Mercenaries! We do bad stuff!
:hr: The last time I fired up one of my Sega tapes it made me a waffle.
:cheat: Changing his commando name to Trogdor.

Other than that, it seemed rushed and forced. Almost like it was a filler so TBC could get to The Paper's bit at the end. POOR THE PAPER!!!! And Strong Bad seemed so unconcerned.

It was hokay, nothing special. It just felt like a mix of army and trogdorcon. If this really is the end of the paper, it will be a sad day for children everywhere.

They remembered! Now I can stop emailing them 100 times per day. I'll miss TP. He saved the Lappy, remember? I hope TIJP is nice.

As for the actual email, I always love to see more of the armies. I notice there wasn't a war, which did make it seem rushed. Maybe the war will take place next monday, and the paper will die a hero! Or FCUSA is too lazy to have a war. I'm thinking too much about it, and I just had a lot of cheetos, so I'll go now before I anger anyone with my cheeto-drunkness.

No, really? You thought maybe they'd forget despite probably the hundreds of emails they're getting about killing The Paper off come 173?

I do hope they aren't just going to have it sat on by Strange Mad. I hope they'll actually have a good explanation of what happened.

All in all, I think all this email was good for was the foreboding of The Paper's demise. It wasn't a very good email. I give it

Heh! I always liked "army," so it was good to see another sbemail with a similar theme. I don't know whether to laugh or cringe at Strong Mad's basketballs, though. (sniffs) Oh The Paper, I'm gonna miss you.

Best Parts


The Taranchula CD easter egg
The Municipality ad
"What if your girlfriend was a wooden spoon and a plastic bowl? That'd be weird..."

Knowing the Brothers Chaps, the paper will come out of the printer next week totally unharmed and Strong Bad will say "Aww, so I got that fancy inkjet printer for nothing?"'

Liked the return of Tito, though <3

Actually Montage said it stuck around intill 173, So if it doesn't leave it'll be false..The paper is going, Just who knows how long?

Isnt it too obvious that that was a prelude to 173s paper replacement

Pretty good email... I liked the parody of those weird US marine commercials.

Btw, I for one will be glad to see the paper go.

What they said...

The way the put the paper in was really cool, and I loved the Homestar part.

:hr: What if a bowl and spoon was your girlfriend, that would be pretty weird.

I love it when these new Emails have tons of references to old ones. It makes up for TBC's lack of good ideas in the Lappy era.

Post subject:  Email...

Wow, this was actually funny! They brough back a bunch of things, sorta like a revisiting of some topics. for examplay: the municipality :poop: , on-point-kings :kot: , trogdor-con '97 :trogdor: , homestarmy :hr: (and private bedendetto), cheat commandos :cheat: (outside their cartoons), the paper --> inkjet printer. poor paper!

Post subject: 

Hooray! They're keeping the promise they made in montage! I'm so happy!

Anyway, this one was pretty good. I liked that the event didn't turn out to be right when he getting the email and how there was the "2 weeks later" transition to something completely irrelavant. However, I found that this email wasn't very innovative and was basically just employing old gags. That's fine, but a little disappointing.

Just wait for the paper to be fine next email without any reference to it :)

THE PAPER!!! I will miss yoooou!!! :(

Seriously, while yes, The Paper is way overdue for an upgrade I'll still miss it. It's always been there and it will take some getting used to when it's not.

It'll be interesting to see if Strong Bad will be good and ready to see it go or if he'll get all sentimental about it.

Seems like it's usually one way or another with him *pokes virus* ;)

I'm excited to see how it all works out! :mrgreen:

I hope they do more Taranchula songs, maybe even put out a CD. That'd be awesome.

Anyways, I personally thought it was one of the better emails in a while, the one preceding it was kinda lacking.

Y'know, on second review, I think Homestar saved this email.

"What if your girlfriend was a wooden spoon or an orange plastic bowl?! That'd be pretty weird, man. What kind of a screwed up kid are you?!?"

Yeah, yeah, I think he saved this one.
