Very funny. I liked how Strong Bad and the cheat had no idea how they mananged to accomplish their feat, or even how they got a satalite feed setup.
Even better when Strong Sad floated by.

I guess it took awhile for me to get it. Hilarious. 5/5

This toon makes Drive-Thru seem perfectly sane. In fact, it made so little sense, that I can't even give it an actual rating. Hmm, I'll just give it three Senor Cardgages out of Trogdor.

Who else was expecting the pixelated Larry P. head [from SBCG4AP] to appear when Homestar started calling for "Larry"?

Me.

Wow. That was pretty unexpected. Easily the best toon in a while.

I know what :sb:

&

did!

1.

pees in

's melonaid
2. :sb:

says that

has more melonaid at her new patio party in the middle of the arctic
3. :sb:

gives

a one-way plane ticket to the artic
4. :hr:

takes the one-way flight to the arctic for :marzi:

's "patio party" for more melonaid
5. :cheat:

pays

to get satelite coverage in the arctic

It's my best guess.

Makes sense to me. All it's missing is the reason :sb:

and

can't remember. My guess is they had too many Cold Ones while celebrating.

This.

Your explanation is definitely possible, Neoxon. But besides the reason why :sb:

and

couldn't remember, this does also bring up another question: How did :hr:

find out that :cheat:

peed in the melonade?

Note: I had to DO OVER! this post because in the original, there was something I wasn't quite happy posting.

Maybe I need to add a few steps.

1. :cheat:

pees in

's melonaid
2. :hr:

drinks the melonaid & finds out :cheat:

peed in his melonaid (gross)
3. :sb:

says that

has more melonaid at her new patio party in the middle of the arctic
4. :sb:

gives

a one-way plane ticket to the artic
5. :hr:

takes the one-way flight to the arctic for :marzi:

's "patio party" for more melonaid
6. :cheat:

pays

to get satelite coverage in the arctic
7. :sb:

&

had too many Cold Ones when celebrating their success & forgot 2-6

Is this any better?

Well, maybe Homestar actually tasted it. The Cheat wouldn't have peed in Homestar's melonade if he wouldn't care that he did it.

::shakes head:: I think this Sbmail break is getting to him. He can't even remember his own capers now! Dang. Oh well, welcome back Strong Bad! 4/5

Aussieguy · **Posted:** Wed Feb 25, 2009 12:09 am

guys, maybe the reason they don't remember is what if THEY DIDN'T DO IT *bumbumbummmmmmm*

Maybe MARZIPAN sent him there or something, since homestar was talking about marzipans new patio. This would explain why Strongbad and The Cheat have no idea how they did it. But I don't know how the satillite fits in.

Reviving this topic to say that this is probably the single toon of 2009 that has aged the best in my mind. I just never get tired of it. There's something really refreshing about how different it is from anything else out there. Unlike so often, where Strong Bad fails due to flaws in his plans (such as double sidemouth drafts) or because Homestar just doesn't get that he's been had (it's like, even we win, he wins), here, Strong Bad and The Cheat are totally successful in their encounter... and yet their victory gives them no satisfaction because, for reasons no one can explain, they haven't the foggiest what they did. For me, that is a recipe for hilarity of the most enduring sort.

Also, this toon has totally given me a phrase I use in real life. Anytime I'm not sure what to do on a certain day, I find myself saying "I just can't seem to stop wondering what I maybe might could be should be doing today!"
