How old do you think the characters are?

ThatGoblin · **Posted:** Mon Aug 02, 2004 3:54 am

Post your ideas on how old all of them are.

As far as we know, Coach Z and Bubs are older than the rest. King of Town is probably younger than them, but older than the others. So I say that:

Coach Z: 42
Bubs: 47
Pom Pom: 23
King of Town: 61
Homestar: 18
Strong Bad: 21
Strong Sad: 18
Strong Mad: 26
Marzipan: 17
Poopsmith: 57
The Cheat: 8

makes sense

homsar would be around 18

ThatGoblin · **Posted:** Mon Aug 02, 2004 3:59 am

I think he'd be older since... you know... he's senile....

warlordofhomsaria · **Posted:** Mon Aug 02, 2004 4:43 am

he was hit in the head by a heavy heavy he probably had severe head trauma

also, you dont to an old man into a sorta hot young lady

and you spell it senial

I think Homestar is probably in his early to middle 20's (He's old enough to buy Cold Ones). Marzipan is about the same age... Strong Sad is probably in high school, maybe 17 or 18... Strong Bad is probably 24-27, Pom Pom is around Homestar's age. KOT is in his 50's... Coach Z is in his 30's, bubs in his 40's.... The Cheat is whatever age he wants to be, he has a fake ID.....
Dunno how I came up with these ages, they just kinda came to me

I'd say that they are all teens (Teens always manage to get cold ones, one way or another), except Coach Z, Bubs, the Poopsmith, KOT, and The Cheat. Coach Z and Bubz are probably around the same age, maybe 45. The Poopsmith is probably 3000 years old, or he may be 7. You can never tell with that guy. The KOT is probably 37, but with the way he eats, he's so unhealthy, he seems a lot older. The Cheat is 7. Yea. OKAY, I've voiced my opinion, I'm leaving! BEGONE!

Why are you still here?

I don't think that's when The Cheat was born. He just happened to be in the egg. Or are you going to tell me that the lifetime supply of fishsticks was "born" at the same time?

Besides, Free Country USA time is kind of like Narnia time. Although years may pass in this world, you have no idea how much time has passed in that world.

Homestar and Marzipan were probably about 17 in 2000, so they'd be 21.
Strong Bad's a few years older, maybe 4 years older
Strong Mad's about 30 years old
Strong Sad would be Homestar's age, or maybe a year younger
Pom Pom could be any age at all, but since he's Homestar's friend he'd probably be Homestar's age
Coach Z's probably in his early 20s when he has his afro, so he'd be around 40 now (he really likes younger women)
Bubs'd be a few years older than Coach Z - 45, maybe?
The Poopsmith has thinning hair, so he'd be in his 50s.
The KoT is in his 60's, no question.
The Cheat is 7 years old, round about.
Homsar is a senile old man, and probably even older than the KoT - I'd say he's about 70 (and don't try the "Heavy Lourde" excuse because he was like that before his injury, as evidenced in his Easter Egg in "The House That Gave Sucky Treats" (yes, I know that TBC added him in later but it still counts)).

Fhgwhegadshg... (can't spell that word, not even gonna try) Enough with the Furrykef comments allright!

As for the ages, I pictured Strong Bad and Homestar always to be about their 20's, as well as Pom-Pom. The Cheat... well, different theories. 21, 7... You might also wanna note though, that he is an animal, so there may be special "The Cheat" years...

As for the rest, I'm too lazy to list em' know, maybe later.

mopi · **Posted:** Mon Aug 09, 2004 4:24 am

i think the cheat is way to pimed out to be like 7 cos he has that gold tooth and all and is a dj and stuff...no 7 year olds are capable of going to raves and dj-ing so i would agree that the cheat is 21 as for the others? i cant really see them being a set age its kinda creepy...but i could see coach z being in his mid 30's and bubs being a bit older...and the king of town is definately over 60...and yeah... :cheat:

GigaDevan · **Posted:** Tue Aug 24, 2004 12:08 am

I think all the characters stay the same ages. I mean, in about ~10 years, the KOT will be dead from obesity.

Kaffiene · **Posted:** Tue Aug 24, 2004 12:47 am

yea...TC's gotta be about 20 since he DJ's. I disagree with Homsar being old though, how is he 70? Older than the king of town? he looks about the same age as homestar, but..he just happens to be random/senile.

ThatGoblin · **Posted:** Tue Aug 24, 2004 12:51 am

The Cheat is most likely NOT 20. We are talking about a cartoon, so we probably will never know...

Haddi-Man · **Posted:** Tue Aug 24, 2004 12:56 am

Coach Z: 35
Bubs: 41
Pom Pom: 26

Hey, how old is Eh! Steve?

MetaStar · **Posted:** Wed Aug 25, 2004 6:47 am

Homsar is a song from the sixties. That would make him 'twixt 34 and 44 I think :)

If you didn't understand the above choosing of ages, then read this:

The age doesn't matter. The characters don't HAVE an age. They are FICTIONAL. Fictional CHARACTERS. They are as old as the people who watch them! (3-103)

It really doesn't matter, and I don't think such a big deal should be made about them.

The whole "42" bit was from a book called" The hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy. It says that "42" is the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything.

I've heard of that book before.

In fact, "42" is the reason that the earth was formed.
