Hilarious, but not as good as mini-golf.

Okay. For the past couple of submissions, I was beginning to think that I was (gasp) growing out of Homestar. I just wasn't laughing anymore! But this email has restored my faith.

I'm not going to say that it was better than mini-golf, because that is subjective. How do you measure the greatness of a sbemail? You can only give your opinion. In my opinion, I liked this one better than mini-golf.

It's probably because I'm a character person. I like things with character-driven plots. Also, I'm a music person. I thought this sbemail was hysterical.

Reminded me of Questionable Content.

Tell me I'm not the only one who giggles upon seeing Strong Bad and/or Strong Sad smiling.

You're not. I like it when they smile, particulary Strong Bad.

That had some pretty good stuff. I liked:
    *"You do NOT impersonate The Burninator!"
    *Strong Bad and Strong Sad's inexplicable and random bonding scenes, as well as Strong Bad's growing bafflement that a non-metal band can rock.
    *The commercial for Senor Cardgage's "Intregway"

This email was okay. I liked :sb: and :sad: getting along and the :senor: easter egg.

It wasn't bad, but nowhere near as good as the other "25th" emails they've done in the 100s (flashback, rock opera and alternate universe).

Eh, it was okay. The only funny things were the easter eggs.

I loved it. Although, it might be because i mainly listen to alternative music. Anyway, it was great to see SB and SS getting along for a couple minutes and i hope Sloshy shows up in other emails/toons.

This was one of the funniest emails I've seen in a long time. I laughed several times.

Hey, I just thought of something else. Sloshy opening for Limozeen reminds me of Helmet opening for Guns N' Roses on their last tour.

My exact thoughts. I gave this an Awexome rating.

I liked this better than mini-golf. Personally, I think that since TGS 13, it's been dissapointments for me, with one small smile at the most. Even in TGS 13, the only part that made me laugh was "You'll microwave the baby!" due to my obsession with urban legends.

I, too, was beginning to lose faith in new toons, as the last toon I laughed throughout was Drive-Thru. This, though, was, to me, simply hilarious. Great work, TBC. Favorite toon in nearly half a year.

Good Email though, loved the Trogdor :) part.

I think a lot of people here do, myself included.

Anyway, good email. Brotherly bonding, awwww. And I know people who are like Strong Bad when it comes to music...so narrow-minded. *sighs, shakes head*

Also, Easter egg = win.

BLASPHEMY! METAL 4 EVAR!

I do like my fair share of alt rock, though.

I really liked this one, for the wonderful humor that tbc have been cranking out lately, for sb's continual mockery of the new paper, and for my personal favorite, strong bad&sad getting along, which I always get warm fuzzies over, dispite the whole "it's just a cartoon on the internet"-ness that I'm sure to be reminded of :p

Haha yeah, That would be cool. I could trick people into thinking Sloshy is a real band.

Yeah, but technically Helmet IS metal, just a different kind of metal.

LOL SLOSHY. (Y) (Y)
That, and the air guitar solo by Strong Bad was my favorite part. That whole email was great.

Mini-golf may have graphically been more polished, but seeing as it was a majorily inside joke (unless you've seen the Sweet Cuppin' Cakes email), I gotta hand it to concert for being rather original.

Then again, I always laugh whenever someone pokes fun at emo's and/or emo-based music. Like when I discovered Emo, Ontario. My greatest accomplishment.

Eh. This one was not very good. But then again, I didn't like mini-golf when I first saw it. But now I realize it was a whole lot better than this one. It just didn't do it for me. The :trogdor: part was funny though.

sl oshy sounds like my kinda band.

i sent this email :D !!!!

originally, it asked if any alt-rock bands ever played. they must have tweaked it.
regardless - i really hope they make a set of characters for sloshy like they did for limozeen
