I'm thoroughly convinced that Strong Bad's comment about technology being magic refers to Clarcke's Third Law, which states "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." Anybody else with me? |

I think you guys are being a bit critical. It was at least an 8/10, in my view. I liked the part with Pom Pom writing, producing, and directing a block buster film. |

I think that it was an over all good effort. Has anyone thought that maybe the break was for the TBC to go through some emals they havent checks and animante them. I think that homestar floating away was either a stnank or just a way to include homestar. 7.5/10 |

It had me cracking up, which might be the first time since secret recipies. I think my teachers would learn a lot from this email. Like not replacing a slow hard drive with a floppy disk. |

This was a pretty good email. I loved the floppy/hard disk debate egg, and Pom Pom. It's always good to see him around. 8/10 |

DUDE! This e-mail came from someone in my area! I live a half hour from Oswego. I was born there, I have family that still lives. For that this e-mail gets a 10/10. WOOT! |

I thought it was good... particularly the begining with the floppy disks and StrongBad describing what technology is. Also, Pom Pom writing, directing, producing and distributing a movie and not giving StrongBad a high-five was hillarious. But I really also liked Oboe Shoes. lol. "Look, I can make mine say Oboe Shoes!" Great Stuff there. It wasn't a bad email. I give it a 7/10 ... err.. maybe 7.5 or an 8 if it behaves itself. |

I enjoyed it--especially the easter eggs at the end. Wireless cord extenders--freakin' hilarious. "Lightweight, existent, and shockproof!"--best line! Heh...he must store those next to the solar-powered flashlights. |

Well, that's the first time that I Literally turned red in the face From Laughing. OBO SHOES! Heh. I'm going to put those zeros and ones in a binary translater...Also, I laughed out loud at Homestar flying off the screen. Man, Middle School kids are stupid I aggree. I'm the only one I know that doesent have that formula for screen names. |

I quite liked this e-mail, the cheatbot was funny, and the way Pom Pom ignored SB. I also found the speaking in binary code thing quite funny (I have geekish tendencies). Strong Bad also needs to learn more about floppies... I'd say the funniest parts were probably the easter eggs though, especially homestar floating off the screen... that was just... random, and funny... randomly funny. |

Ok, I translated the binary in the email. It spells › Cool, a little angry face thing. |

This email was a fine email. I really wanted to really like it, too. And I did, I guess. Enough that I'll make my wife watch it. But, I don't know, it just didn't ever really make me laugh. It was humorous, but I didn't find it as funny as death metal, which really sets the gold standard for the last 4 emails. |

I thought it was a great e-mail and I'm glad Pom Pom finally made a significant appearance. |

I thought this email was classic, it reminded me of the early Compy-Era emails. I liked how Strong Bad thought technology is magic, and how he folds the large floppy disk into the small slot. The best part was definetely the Screen Saver, that was awesome. 7/10. |

i give this sbemail 8.5/10. IT was really good, but not the best. However,I LOVED the "allegedly transportable" part. |

I always love it when SB tries to explain something he knows nothing about. And when PomPom or Homestar appear. And when the cheat makes cute noises. And when SS is right and thinks SB is an idiot. And pretty much everything about this email. I don't care what anyone else thinks,  /

I like the way he made fun of all the wireless things that are out on the market today. BTW, since when does middle school have technology class? They didn't in my school. Then again, I live in Kentucky. Solid email. 10/10 P.S. Pom Pom appears again!! He's making quite a comeback. |

I laughed through this entire email. The screensaver cracked me up, as I have nostalgic memories of seeing it at my school. Strong Bad's lack of grasp on modern technology was great, as well as the cell phone thing (did anyone notice Pom Pom's ringtone was The Cheat's indietronic remix of the Geddup Noise?). 9/10 |
