Homestar Runner Wiki Forum

Okay, so we know that the King of Town is fat because he eats way too much, and that's all he does. (That's kinda like me, heh). Okay, I know Strong Sad gets no exercise, neither do I. But what befuddles me is we all know he's abused, but his weight doesn't reflect that, (as Sickly Sam's does) especially like in "dangeresque 3", when Strong Bad stole his sandwich. Strong Sad does not seem like a food freak really, and he mostly cannot exercise because he's so weak, so uhh... I guess I'm kind of rambling.
(I sure hope this is not spam)

He has been known to pig out, look at 3THFJ, where the cost of contacting the dead was two packs of Oreo's. He prob just sits in his room, cries, and eats. And maybe he has a horrible metabolism. Who knows, ask SB. That would be a great e-mail.

also, in "the house that gave sucky treats", he confesses that he used to eat baking chocolate when there was no real cohocolate around (and now it's his only friend).

Strong Sad does Tai Chi, which is a low-impact form of exercise.
Maybe he's just built to be fat. In the video he hides under his bed of Li'l SS and Li'l SB, he was fat as a kid too. I think he's just one of those unlucky people who can't lose the weight no matter what.

Just like me

Yeah, it's probably slow metabolism.

Good point

Can you use a less mean word than fat? Try horizontally challenged.

I thought the quote was "I eat cause I'm fat, and I'm fat cause I eat"? Maybe I'm wrong....

yes you are


Strong sad is fat and really intelligent and I think thats a good

combination that reflects his personality.

He reminds me of me

It might be glandular.

Yes, Nick...
Always with the glandular.

Maybe it's because he has some elephant genes mixed in him somewhere.

Good thinking, bbf! For as we all know, the soonlds (sp?) are NOT FEET. Really makes you wonder what Strong Mom was up to, huh?

_________________

Strong Sad's probably naturally fat, kinda like my brother. My brother exercises all the time, but is just build big. Me, I've always been skinny, and I eats more than the KOT ok, maybe not that much.... Maybe Strong Sad's just big boned and really not that fat.

_________________

Maybe, sort of like Pom Pom, Strong Sad's body is just filled with air, and his appendages keep him from floating away!

_________________

He's fat because:
He's depressed and has a lot of acid in his stomach and probably eats a lot
He just lies around all day and doesn't excercise at all
He's part elephant

Why is Strong Mad square?

Why doesn't Marzipan, the KOT, Homestar, or several other characters have arms?

How can Strong Bad type with boxing gloves on?

The point is, no one knows and no one besides you really cares.

That must be a HUGE, round bone in his belly.

He's an emotional eater.

How about some Pan-Asian cuisine?

He does eat a lot. Plus low metabolism.

EDIT: I didn't realise that I posted here before. Whoops.

Here here. Some people just can't help being fat.

He just has an unactive lifestyle along with baking chocolate.

I don't think it's Strong Sad's fault that he's overweight. I think he was just born like that, like Chris Griffin from Family Guy was.

_________________

Kinda like a heredity thing? Does make sense....if we see his parents....

_________________

Like some people have already stated, SS is probably just "horizontally challenged" because he's sad.... strongly. I always binge on chocolate when I'm sad.

Besides, the though of a skinny Strong Sad, well, it quite frankly disturbs me. Moreso than H*'s Daisy Dukes.

i think it's cuz he was bullied as a child- and as a whatever he is now, and he is just comfort eating pretty cute tho

(cute as in"aaawww bless")

(:sad:) is fat because he is always depressed so he eats.
duh

Oh hewow, I am Homestaow Wunnow. Isn't that gwait.

Depression and anxiety can cause people to eat excessively. The eat because it makes them feel better. We know that Strong Sad suffers from Depression, so that may be the cause.
