And I was hoping for a new, more energy-efficient computer.
Love the IDiot and MOron easter egg, despite MO is Missouri and not Montana. Oops.

I was laughing throughout this entire email! Five stars!

Could this mean the end of the Lappy?

Larson · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 6:28 am

it's not the end of the lappy. protesters don't do anything but complain in rhyme.

Discount Alligator · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 6:30 am

Wow... Its amazing how NOT eco-friendly that lappy is.
Poor Homestar...

eww- sog dog :coachz:

"Coach Z, this is nasty"

Awkward Social Sun · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 6:30 am

Wow...everything looks different in here.

Anyway, there wasn't really much to this email. I do like the new window, though.

...and this isn't the end of the Lappy. It's the beginning of the Lappy-with-a-sticker.

That vanishes at the end of the email.

I liked it. It was pretty good, and Strong Sad's ultra-whiney voice makes me laugh.

fuzzyslippers · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 7:09 am

I liked it alot! I laughed so hard at this namely "well...Ladies?" and alos Homestar playing the "Insert a game pak" screen. Wow, its funny how SB can take a little thing like Enviroment pollution and make it funny!

Heimstern Läufer · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 7:22 am

Definitely liked it. The whole parody of environmental clichés was funny. The whole mom-safe words for "butt" totally reminded me of how my own mom used to ban that word.

Awesome New year's sb-eve-mail, except that it was later.

Tess-chan · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 8:59 am

This was pretty good. Coach Z's Sog Dog really made me laugh for some reason. I give it a 4.

Onion Overlord · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 9:45 am

That's the easiest video game I've ever played.
Liked that sbemail, making fun of lots of things that I'm interested in. Heh heh, 17 hours...

BucketHand · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 12:56 pm

And so, Strong Bad aims the business end of his Bazooka of Withering Social Commentary at the hooplah over the environment. With hilarious consequences amusing results. (Sorry about that, but apparently cliches deplete the ozone layer)

Coach Z's "Sog Dog" was his usual mix of gross, creepy and funny. I also liked Strong Sad's curt response to Strong Bad's wisecracks ("How long did it take you to think up—" "Three days.") and Strong Bad's response to the "facts" about the abuses his Lappy performs on the environment.

Solid email. And look, the podcast returns on Thursday! Things are looking up.

I wish MY lappy's battery could burn down rain forest.

Also, I found Green The Cheat amusing for some strange reason.

STupendous7 · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 3:53 pm

Heh, that was a good one. I liked the rhyming, especially since I'm doing poetry right now for school. :rolleyes:

. Strong Sad's line about the bill using a lot of trees or whatever was good too.

Nothing like poking a pin in the Gasbaggery of the Eco-Poseurs.

Ought we be cleaner? Yes.

Ought we follow the whims of bumper-sticker politics? No.

The environmental movement would be better served if there weren't so many real-life Strong Sads and Marzipans out there becoming caricatures and parodies of the real deal.

Chaps... 5/5. Outstanding.

slackerboy! · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 4:21 pm

Okay, the "Sog Dog" may be the nastiest food item I've ever seen!
"3 days!" was funny, I always wondered about those annoying protest chants. Thankfully no "Hey Hey, Ho Ho, this _____ has got to go!" (though it could've worked as a Poopsmith cameo!)
All in all B+
(think they'll fix the MO to Missouri?)

That was a pretty good one. But does anyone know what the deal is with "boat take"?

Based on the context, I'm assuming it's some sort of "mom-friendly" euphemism for "butt".

Why is it always Three Days before something happens.
Also
Podcast return on Thursday, which is THREE DAYS AWAY!

marzipansahippie · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 6:19 pm

YES!!

So, alls I got to do is take something I already do and word it differently so it sounds eco-friendly?
:marzi:

Yeah, that's what we do mostly.
Haha, take that, Al Gore!

Sog dog = ewww...
And I thought :hr:

"I'm about to win!...aww" was hysterical.

5/5!

Capt. Ido Nos · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 6:22 pm

I chuckled quietly to myself in an amused manner.

4/5 :mrgreen:

Is "This is the [adjective] video game I've ever played." a running gag now?

tennessee10 · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 8:30 pm

Oh, wow. This one was fuuny. I liked Strong Bad's voice in this one. It sounded... different, somehow. I dunno... The whole thing about Strong bad simply renaming the Lappy was funny too.

Parlod · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 8:45 pm

Loved it. I give it a 5/5.
The part I laughed the hardest on was Coach Z's Sog Dog.

WHOA THIS PLACE IS SHINY

Well, this was a run-of-the-mill sbemail. Nothing special. I did like the Idiot and Moron bit, but I'm somewhat disappointed that TBC don't know their state abbreviations.

Of course, it's possible that the e-mailers were wrong, because since Idaho and Montana border each other the two friends could just live near the border on either side.

Great e-mail! I laughed when SB said he wanted to overclock the Lappy so it'd burn down a solid 50 acres. Also the "Again with the aww" was pretty funny, too.

DS_Kid · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 10:44 pm

This e-mail was pretty funny; I didn't know that the Lappy consumed so much energy. 4/5
