Only a little bit. Occasionally I'll be watching it and they'll find something mildly amusing. But they can't remember the guys names..... especially Mom. "Oh, are we going to watch that Strong Mad Email thing again?"

They're somewhat aware. I mean, they know about it, and my mom thinks its kinda funny, but I think they just consider it as that show their kid watches on the computer. Although my mom has sat through a few emails on the DVD. She likes to immatate Strong Bad and talks in a really low voice (that, I might add, sounds nothing like him).
My sister (9) watches it when I'm watching on the TV, and, being younger, and not mature at all, laughs at the parts that aren't meant to be funny. She likes The Cheat, though.

Mom and dad= Very not

Brothers and sisters = very a little bit, cause a friend showed it to all of us.

My parental units are pretty much in the dark about H*R. Though maybe I should, then my mom might stop thinking I look at pr0n all day.

I've tried and tried to get my parents into Homestar, but it just won't take. Oh well.

My mum has seen a little of it, but she doesn't really connect with the whole flash cartoons thing.

my sister calls it 'obsessive', yet since she got her new tamagotchi, she's always on that thing called 'tamatown'

My parents know not a thing about it. They have no clue what my H*R shirts are about. I think my brothers may have heard of it, but nothing more than that.

My parents are pretty cool about it: they bought me a few things from the store. They still call the entire site "Strong Bad" though.

Well, Strong Bad is pretty much the star of the site, you know. As he said in the (ridiculously outdated) First Time Here toon, "You don't know it yet, but I'm the reason you're here."

:hr: It's twue!

My mom and sis barely know/like it, but my dad thinks that it is awxome. We watch together sometimes on my computer. Dats cool. I think... or different, lame, and differently lame. I hope not...
Plus, all of my best friends (that is, not any of my "aquaintiances"!) know and love H*RImage.

yeah. Were a big H*R obsessed family! All of my friends know about it and most like it. We have a more h*r dominated school than most. Here, where I live, bullies don't pick on you if you're wearing like, a the cheat shirt or something. It's really awesome and fortunate. :)

My parents now a little, like if I'm watching an email, they'll say, "Watching Homestar?"

So yeah.

My mom is exasperated by it, but my sister and my dad are big fans! My dad likes to immitate Strong Bad, and once the four of us broke out into the current scroll buttons song. My dad, who makes T-shirts and customized items, even made us a custom H*R mousepad! It's Homestar with his novelty chef's hat in "narrator."

Holy cow. It's very strange to hear about parents who actually like HR and all that. Sounds all... weird.

My parents have seen a tiny bit of it, and don't really care for it at all.

My mom thinks it's pretty funny but doesn't watch unless she comes in when I'm watching it. Still, she occasionally references "kid's book" (no two people are not on fire), and last year carved some Halloween pumpakins in the likenesses of the brethren Strong.

It is EXTREMELY annoying that my parents refer to the entire site as "Strong Bad." I know he's the best character and all, it just gets on my H*R obsessed nerves, being the geek I am. Like, I say a vague and weird H*r reference and my parents are like, "Oh, that's from Strong Bad, right?" But both parents agree it is hilarious. I also occasionally use the Bubs quote "I'm the Hiphoppityfrogofvalue! You'll save like a demon, or my name ain't BUBS CONSESSION STAND!" hence my username. I've told my friends about the hrwiki forum and one of my friends might join someday, so yeah....

No. They still wonder who's the yellow dog on my T-shirt.
