i think TBC just realized that we were getting impatient and just..kind of threw out an email with not a lot of effort to keep us satisfied for a while..i think the idea is almost funny, but the email itself could be a lot better.


That's almost exactly what I've been saying.

Very boring. The caffinated Strong Sad part was the only real funny part. Not very good.

Meh/10.

Yipes, Pom Pom has fallen way down on the cool level. After he and Homestar started hanging out less, he fell down to Coach Z's coolness level. Now, he's way at the bottom with the KoT. :(

I don't think this cartoon affected Pom Pom's coolty at all. He's still a pretty cool character.

The whole thing with Pom Pom is that TBC know that he's underused and they just group him with other underused characters as a joke. Someday, perhaps Pom Pom will return to a more prominent role, but for now, he's just part of a running gag.

Yeah I guess so. I wonder if they'll make a pom pom reference soon.

This thread is getting extremely ridiculous. There is no need to bash those who loved the email or those who hated it. Anarchy_Balsac and POSB are examples of what I'm talking about. It is only a cartoon.


I didn't bash, I provided a logical explanation.

It was really funny. Very quote-able.

Oh, And I dont understand the phrase "Jumping the shark". Isent that a good thing? Or are you being sarcastic? Uh.... I guess in that case, the shark toatally ate them this time. It was that good.

oh i see....

Im still using the term "The shark ate them" Though

okay, but that would mean that the series ended when it was supposed to: before it stopped being funny. I don't think TBC are losing their touch. They're as cool as ever.

look at you all. TBC make ONE TOON that you dislike a little, and you go haywire saying how they've "jumped the shark." GIVE THEM A BREAK! Not ALL their work has to be masterpieces! (I enjoyed this email, anyway!)

I didn't really dig this one upon first viewing. . . The second time around, I appreciated the subtlety and found that sweet "err" egg. Groo just rules, and an animated adaptation written/drawn by TBC would cause an awesome vortex to devour the universe. . .

I still think it's the least awesome Lappy e-mail, though. IMO, they've all been pretty good, which probably makes up for the lack of any truly great toons since "Shopping For Danger".

I've decided to remove this post. I was wrong about this e-mail, it's funny. I just didn't see that when I first saw it.

The name says it all for me. Boring (really). On second thought Boring (exept strong sad)

Post subject: 

What are you talking about Strong Sad was the most boring part of the email. ;)

I was actually wondering a little bit before this email if Strong Sad would ever get caffinated again.

Look, I'm sick of all these people acting like everything on H*R is pure gold. I love HomestarRunner.Com like nothing else, but some animations *cough*Tape-leg*cough*dreamail*cough* just aren't very good. And praising all the animations won't do anything.


Well, that's just your opinion, bro. Me, I liked tapeleg. I'm not lying. :)

The tape-leg was cool. I wish they had made an email this week. I'm tired of all these people bashing boring (really). I guess the new TGS is a good enough distraction.

Yes, I wanted one too! Especially since I sent in some good emails last week. It seems whenever I send in good emails they make a non-email update.........

Seriously, what's wrong with tape-leg compared to most of the other really early SBemails? 22 and homestar hair didn't even make sense. Tape-leg was a single weak joke, but it at least doesn't feel completely out of place.

Hey, the Tape-Leg is cool! And I don't know what you're talking about with Sbemail 22- that little newspaper was hilarious! But as for this one, I would say that Strong Sad jumping in was a little predictable and too short, but the whole email wasn't that bad. It is boring, though. I'm impressed that they took the time to list all those three letter words, though they might have added more easter eggs (Err was runny). So, all in all, not one I'd watch over and over again, like Montage or Virus, but a solid C.

Welcome to the forum! Just so you know, you can edit your post so you don't have to double post, as it is looked down upon, so you know to do it next time.

Hello, TrendyTotebag! Here, we don't like it when you bump an old email topic without something to add for the conversation. Don't worry, this isn't included in the rules, but it is a general custom. Thanks for joining our forum!
