This is the truest thing I have ever viewed.

This email is great! Especially the Stinkoman part.
I'll give it a... 4.5/5

Very entertaining. Fanstuff Wiki must get a laugh out of the mock.

5/5.

Just when I think TBC can't get any funnier, they spring this on us.

Bravo. 5/5

That's probably what I would have said, except this was better than pizza joint and I would vote 5.

I laughed quite a bit in this e-mail, mainly around the Photoshop filter fight. The Stinkoman comic maker easter egg is also pretty fun.

THANK YOU FOR REFERENCING SONETHING PAST THE 80's TBC!

Anyway, great email with lots of funny references. The stinkoman pixel comic was an awesome idea to put in, and Loafing, I'd say that they were referencing you at the end.

5/5! :)

I loved this e-mail. The 8-Bit Theater reference was classic.

This one was awesome! The easter eggs were great too. I liked the well-drawn comic battle. That was awesome, and all too true sometimes too. :mrgreen: 5/5

The comic generator is fun. I like how they let you move the V from the speech bubble offscreen.

Awesome e-mail, and gave me one or two pointers on my cartoonist career.

But believe me, you would NOT want to see the horrible Stinkocomic I made.

It's amazing what TBC can do with Flash 5. And another thing:
I've never heard that many new, generic voices in one email. If that was Matt doing it all, he's probably aiming to become one of America's only multi-voiced actors, such as...
Dan Castellaneta, Hank Azaria, and Harry Shearer on The Simpsons
Muppeteers (including Jim Henson)
and also Daws Butler (known for doing voices for several Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters)

POST #150 (plus one)!

Best one in a very long time. And one of the best easter eggs ever.

Whoa. I've been reviewing webcomics recently, so this is incredible. Plus, that's one of the most fun easter eggs ever.

I loved this email.
Especially the part about how the word "web" ruined everything.

5/5

Best email in a long time. Gaming comics, sprite comics and Spamusement all in one easy to digest package.

I liked this email a lot, and I particulary liked the sprite comic parody. I've seen too many crappy Stinkoman 20X6 sprite comics. And a few excellent ones, but the crappy ones outnumber those. So I made this. I'd been meaning to make it using MSPaint for a while, but was too lazy.

You know, since I didn't get what they were actually referencing, that was my first thought as well. And seeing Dennis chasing Ye Flask made me think of Dennis Dunjinman, a member of the fanstuff wiki. I think maybe I spend too much time here.

I had to get an account here just so I could post about how much I loved this freaking e-mail. Even though I normally think Strong Bad e-mails are all very funny and awesome and good, I rarely actually laugh out loud at them, and this e-mail was the first to make me laugh really, really hard. The part in the beginning when Strong Bad was listing all the things that webcomics are about ("video games, gamernerds, webgeeks, dorknerds, gamewads, nerdgames, webwebs, and elves") had me ROLLING.

Mad props to TBC. This one made my day.
