Maybe it's just me, but I expected a Homsar easter egg when clicking on the heavy lourde, though Homestar was still hilarious.

I was thinking Homsar might exit through a door in it, just to be crushed by it again or something, with a wierd comment in between...

Oh, and the great for baby cold one keg was genius

I was expecting it as well. But it was still very good.

I never laughed out loud at this one, sadly. Yet it wasn't a total loss. It's not comedic gold, but it did have its moments. Like the whole "garage/garbage" joke being moms' territory (so true), Senor Cardgage and Coach Z being his own category.

You know, it may be just me, but I honestly never thought of a box of scorpions being "Great for Baby." Maybe great for Graw Mad.

I thought it was pretty good. It was better than some of the recent ones, but rampage was better.

This one was a-prettpretty good. As soon as I heard Strong Bad say "garbage" like that I was like "Hey! That's how my Mom says it", and sure enough, 2 seconds later, he says that it's a Mom joke! I loved at the end when he freaked out because Marzi knew that he just stole her answering machine. :sb: And Senor Cardgage is becomin' mainstream! Awesome!

Pros:
- Coach Z
- Homestar's easter egg
- Bubs haggling
- so many many items from past episodes (priced by their debut email, no less)

Cons:
- SB rambled a bit too much at the computer
- Still not a fan of Cardgage, although he is the kind of person I imagine hanging around at yard sales

Leter grade: B-

That was the funniest part! And no I'm not just saying that because I like SB :p I actually laughed the most at that part.

That was awesome. As soon as SB said "Next is the lurker" I thought it would show Senor Cardgage. I was right, but I assumed he would be the lurker.

grade: 9.5/10

I hope they actually make those T-shirts in the Easter egg.

I'd buy the "Da Bomb" one. I bet you wouldn't be allowed to wear it on an airplane, though.

I didn't see that; I'll have to watch this email again.

I COMPLETELY agree, from Coach Z, tp Cardgage... Everything, except the grade.
Not perfect, but a great email! 1.1y/2x x=5 y=8

I think Livin in Da Hood should be a new addition to the store... I would buy it!

But now that I've thought it over, the absence of pom pom and homsar makes this a B+. Still one of the best Lappy e-mails, and there were a fair bit of Homsar references (the hat on top of The Haggler is Homsar's hat in brown, and of course the Heavy Lourde)

Yeah, I be thinking it was pretty funny. What with the Marzipan and the Coach Z. And the other things like Strong Bad and the garbage jokes.

This was a really good email. Strong Bad's description of the different kinds of garage sale goers was good, and I loved the Senor Cardgage appearance. My favorite parts were Homestar's two appearances. I give it a 10/10, meaning that it's worthy of a Homeschool Winner emoticon!

I liked it. As said above, SB rambled a bit too much at the Lappy. Though I did love Coach Z's category. I used it to make my new banner! Check it out!

9/10

...No, seriously, check it out.

I'm kinda upset that the email doesn't show Pom Pom, but I still really enjoyed it. All the previous email references are really cool.

I would've liked to see Homsar too.

Better than Rampage, not as good as Rock Opera. :cheatgrin:

Heh, Nice. That one was great. I'd give it a 9.5. Nothing is perfect. :p
I do NOT want to see any crap on the wiki about Coach Z being a mother, or 'genderly confused'. It's just him being all weird.

I see that TBC has been devolping Coach Z more. He's grown a weird personality, not as random as Homsar's or Homestar's. It's mostly on topic, but just... streaches reality.

Hey, I like Coach Z's evolving personality. It's hilarious. :coachz: I'd like to see more of it.

That was one of the best. The same listing type plot as radio, but done way better.

YES! I totally agree. He's played a major role in the previous email too... Hmm...

A pretty good email indeed. Lots of fun little inside jokes. Not super great but maybe in the top 1/4 I'd have to say. The easter egg at the end had me baffled til I watched it a second time. Great to see SeƱor Cardgage come around again. And steal that ol can. I liked the assortment of familiar objects hanging around too, including stuff you wouldn't expect Strong Bad to have owned(Benedetto, Heavy Lourde). Although one thing's for sure, this isn't a good first email for a new homestar fan because there are way too many references.

Oh I dunno about the Heavy Lourde. He dropped it on Homsar, and then it turned up in Dangeresque, and I'm guessing he's not just hiring it for the occasion (especially not on Dangeresque's clearly economic budget)

Was anyone else just a little irked that an egg carton labelled $EGG didn't have any eggs attached to it? I feel like I've been denied closure

Author:  TheTinyGiant [ Mon May 02, 2005 10:57 pm ]
Post subject: 

Point taken. My memory's a bit blurred. I did think for a moment that since Strong Bad dropped the Lourde on Homsar it might well be his but forgot about it when writing the post. And also that Benedetto wasn't at the garage sale whatsoever. Was thinking along the liens of Gooblis, like you can't just sell your little brother's stuff. Especially when he's lurking wanting to buy it from himself?!?

I was wondering why Strong Sad didn't seem to care that Gooblies was being sold.

That was great. I like how the prices correspond with the item's email numbers.
Best line: Slightly used and mostly confused!

Didn't like - Marzipan's "More like preow"... it just sounded weird for her to say that.
And a big weclome back to Senor Cardgage!

8/10
