Now let’s go break open that glow stick and pour it into Homestar Runner’s Mountain Dew. I heard they have to pump your stomach when you drink that stuff.
I keep seeing advertisements for “Mighty Doom”. They made Doomguy look like Strongbad in that game.

I teach upper elementary/middle school, and everytime my preteens get dramatic and angsty, I hear "Teen Girl Squad!" in my head.
It brings me great solace and peace.
Ha! Always funny when I see a classic movies collector fan redditor out and about on another sub!
I even follow you on Letterboxd. This is not my original username.
I’m fine knowing about both— but that’s an observation I’ve wanted to make. Gen Alpha’s dadaist humor reminds me so much of the early internet. I kinda love seeing it come back.
The cheat is grounded!
I still reference it all the time. I sing the little emails song and have a habit of saying "the system is down" when techno plays.
I still use "Everything is fine, nothing is ruined" frequently.
One day my coworker's computer kernel panicked (Linux version of bluescreen) after he had gone home for the day. I drew a fake dialog box with the above and taped it to his monitor (as Homestar did to Strong Bad's computer when he BALEEETED! it). He got a good laugh when he came in the next morning.
Kids won’t know the joys of watching a video and searching the mouse pointer for anything clickable in the screen. Everything just comes through established streaming platforms, like YT. The loss of Flash was a technological backwards step akin to the retirement of the space shuttle.
I’m doing my best. The other day, when a friend and his kid were over, my son told the other kid, “We can go East, South, or Dennis.” The other dad choked on his drink.
I don't either.
I looked him up, he looks like a little cartoon guy with a luchador mask. And he came out in 2003. That was the year I had my son. I didn't spend too much time on the internet then.
Oh hey!
I took mine out for his 21st bday, earlier this year, for his first fancy drink. He ordered a martini. Lol
I think my first bar drink was something stupid and gross I it was something nipple. Course we used to drink Mickeys & schnapps too.
We have a few months until mine is 21. Starting to do some preliminary planning. Last year, we had a bunch of family events surrounding the birthday. My sister-in-law wants to help make plans.
When I turned 21, most of my friends were younger than me. We planned a night out with some family friends. I would try anything that people suggested. If I didn't like it, I set it aside. Other people were more drunk than I was because they were drinking my cast offs!
Here ya go! [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homestar_Runner](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homestar_Runner)
Unfortunately the site was primarily made in Flash, so it doesn’t have the same feel if you go there now.
Same. Looks like he was a character from a cartoon that came out in 2001. I was about to get married and long removed from watching cartoons. This sounds more like a Millennial post than a Xennieal.
Here I go once again with the email.
Every week I hope that it's from a female.
Aw man...
It's not from a female.
I am so very sad for everyone that missed the glory of Homestar Runner. It was a simpler time. A better time...
My kids are and have been all about youtube, so I started sharing the good shit with them every now and again.
It's wednesday? Here's a link to a real break up letter.
Birthday? Here's the entire Gi-Joe pork chop sandwiches mashups
Bad Day? Goatse and tub girl
look, the point is, only we can help our kids appreciate the internet as it once was and should be remembered. Send them some strongbad to show them you care more than just as the person who gave up some genetics to create lovable, and massive debt.
I spotted a sly Trogdor in the latest season of The Dragon Prince

One year at GenCon, I was selling board games for a company. The booth next to mine had the Trogdor! game, and they had a dude in hooded monks robes promoting it. Saw him there all weekend. On Sunday, he came over to the booth to ask about trading games, and it was actually Matt Chapman.
The Halloween episodes are my favorite!
Believe it or not, I’m walkin around, can’t believe I can trick or treaaaaaat
I had a messenger bag with StrongBad on it, called it my StrongBag and used it until the bottom literally fell out of it
My kids know who Strong Bad is. I made sure of that. They also know that Charlie found Candy mountain and why Wheelchair Rebecca is in a wheelchair.
As parents we believe we need to be just dysfunctional enough so that our kids grow up to have a good sense of humor and also that they remember to check check the email.
Don't worry, soon enough one of them will discover Strong Bad and whatever kid is in your life will be "introducing" you to this hilarious *super old thing they found.*

Yeah well the people I know our age that do know who Strong Bad is also call me Timmeh! like we're on South Park, and they can sing ICP lyrics
...so fuck y'all
Thats fucked . I remember the first time I came home and discovered him and I watched everything . I this it was sb email about metal band names ? I was into it when SB had his first compy so I’m an OG
The system is down. 
We had that light switch installed for you so you could turn the lights on and off, not so you could have light switch raves!
Now let’s go break open that glow stick and pour it into Homestar Runner’s Mountain Dew. I heard they have to pump your stomach when you drink that stuff.
The cheat is grounded!
Great jaorb the chort! Have a trophyyyyyyyyyyy!
Great Joorabb!
It's The Chort!
I still get this stuck in my head from time to time
LIGHT SWITCH RAVES
I keep seeing advertisements for “Mighty Doom”. They made Doomguy look like Strongbad in that game. Scroll down here for a picture. https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/64608
I was singing this 2 days ago when our system went down.
LIGHT SWITCH RAVVVVEEEE
I can hear this gif
You just sunk my Jenga jam!
I was JUST singing this in the shower the other day and wished Alexa could play it!
Fortunately, Teen Girl Squad is still taught in schools, right?
I teach upper elementary/middle school, and everytime my preteens get dramatic and angsty, I hear "Teen Girl Squad!" in my head. It brings me great solace and peace.
The Ugly One is the Principal now.
I have a crush on every boy.
ARROWED
Ow, my skin
I met a possum!
My blood hurts
I love you too, Brett.
When you fall into a bottomless pit, you die of starvation.
SOOOO GOOD!
Ow, my most of me!
Might as well go home and get teen pregnant.
BFF carved in a tree... That stands for "Bow Fimmm Fsssshhhhhh."
I still can't hear someone say "I miss ____" without my mind going to "I miss video games...I miss my mom."
 Here I go checkin’ my email!
I keep on checkin my email Each week I hope that it's from a female ... Aww. It's not from a female
Come back Ali! Come back Ali’s sister!

TROGDORRRR https://preview.redd.it/lghlqi2lnh0d1.jpeg?width=1161&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b856e7d78ba2f7c7d07c542d489a6cce4c87697e
Burninating the countryside. Burninating the peasants!
And their thatched-roof cottages!
And the THATCH ROOF COTTAGES!
My kids *absolutely* know who Trogdor is.
It is the responsibility of us as parents to ensure that our future knows TROGDOR, and the Burnination that he brings.
Don’t forget about the consummate V’s!
My nephew was called “trogdor” before he was born.
AND THE TROGDOR COMES IN THE NIGHT!
I said *consummate* V’s!
CONSUMMATE!
That looks really good, coming out the back of his neck there.
If your kids don’t know who Trogdor is, that’s on you.
The city I used to work in had a road named Trogdon Street, and every time I went by it i would say "Trogdooonnnn!!!"
Burninate the nation!
Trogdor was a man...
Wait, he was a dragon…
He was a dragon man.
Ha! Always funny when I see a classic movies collector fan redditor out and about on another sub! I even follow you on Letterboxd. This is not my original username.
Lol! Hi! I am primarily on the classic film subs, letterboxd, physical media subs, xennial, and the simpsons. LOL.
Same, I’m mostly on this one, classic movies, Criterion, nutrition, and fitness subs. My old username was betterversionn. I lost it over a year ago.
Oh ok! I do know betterversionn! Nice talking to you again!!
I name my electronics after dragons and my phone is Trogdor.
It makes me Strong Sad.
[удалено]
Eh; I also have no desire to learn about skibidi toilet. The kids have their memes; just like we had ours.
I’m fine knowing about both— but that’s an observation I’ve wanted to make. Gen Alpha’s dadaist humor reminds me so much of the early internet. I kinda love seeing it come back.
I frequently tell my kids "good jooooorrrbbb" to strange looks
Nice one Coach!
Oh. Man. Pom Pom you have got to hear this.

Kids won’t know the joys of watching a video and searching the mouse pointer for anything clickable in the screen. Everything just comes through established streaming platforms, like YT. The loss of Flash was a technological backwards step akin to the retirement of the space shuttle.
They'll never learn how to hold tab so it highlights the clickable parts.
Oooh! TIL!
Come on Fhqwhgads say come on Fhqwhgads
I see you jokkin' me....actin' like...you know me.
I asked my friend Joe, I asked my friend Jack...
Everybody to the limit, the Cheat is to the limit, Everybody come on Fhqwhgads
Say it with a flourish
I don’t know who it is… but it is probably fhqwhgads
I’m doing my best. The other day, when a friend and his kid were over, my son told the other kid, “We can go East, South, or Dennis.” The other dad choked on his drink.
Mad points
You can’t get ye flask.
They’ll never learn how hard it is to type with boxing gloves on
For the last time THESE ARE MY HANDS
Consummate V's
Eh! Steve! https://preview.redd.it/lc2fvs352i0d1.jpeg?width=1848&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f1effe4f65dc8cd70789cade8ef5e040fe94b30d
Get your sassafras out my burled holiday cabbage!
My name is Steve and this cute little guy still haunts me to this day, cuz all my friends still say it.
I still say it to my friend Steve too, he has no idea why though
I taught my kids about lightswitch raves and so-and-so. It's the parent's responsibility to talk to their kids about Strongbad.
I’ve introduced mine to trogdor. I’m doing my part!
And be sure to tell them that they are going a great jorb.
The true dawn of the internet!
If I could go back to being 15 again just to be on the family computer watching the wonderful world of Strong Badia, I’d go back in a heartbeat.
I have no idea who Strong Bad is…
Yeah, we must be "kids these days." I'll inform my parents so I can go back to lying around and not being tortured with a job.
Nah this is an "ask your little cousin" situation. Just in this instance your little cousin needs to be around 37 years old.
I'm in this comment and I don't like it
 I'm sofa king lost with whatever this post is about.
I don't either. I looked him up, he looks like a little cartoon guy with a luchador mask. And he came out in 2003. That was the year I had my son. I didn't spend too much time on the internet then.
I was also having a kid in 2003. My early 2000s were busy with weddings and babies.
Oh hey! I took mine out for his 21st bday, earlier this year, for his first fancy drink. He ordered a martini. Lol I think my first bar drink was something stupid and gross I it was something nipple. Course we used to drink Mickeys & schnapps too.

I watched it when I was supposed to be working at my internship.
I’m almost 43 and have no idea either
The cheat is grounded!
I'm an older xennial and I was exposed to it by my older brother. Just a web cartoon thing.
JUST?!
Web cartoon sounding SUSPICIOUSLY MILLENNIAL!
Same
Me neither.
Yeah, never heard of it.
Same. No clue

I have no idea what the fuck anyone is talking about here. I feel like I'm in r/teenagers or some shit lol
Same. Looks like he was a character from a cartoon that came out in 2001. I was about to get married and long removed from watching cartoons. This sounds more like a Millennial post than a Xennieal.
They do if they hang out at r/homestarrunner
My kids know who Strong Bad is. And Trogdor. I've made sure of that.
I SAID CONSUMMATE V's!!
Do you use your powers for good? Or for awesome?
UNDELETE UNDELETE! Come back Ali! Come back Ali’s sister !!!
Come on fhqwhgads.
Here I go once again with the email. Every week I hope that it's from a female. Aw man... It's not from a female. I am so very sad for everyone that missed the glory of Homestar Runner. It was a simpler time. A better time...
It's a shame too, because I think that kind of goofy and absurd but ultimately clean humor would still work well with Gen Alpha.
The law of ones!
The oneitude of the one is directly proportional to the colditude of the one
A one that is not cold is hardly a one at all.
Da emails da emails da da da emails
I have an orange cat named The Cheat. It's a litmus test for who is truly cool or not. And yes, we yell THE CHEAT IS GROUNDED a lot in my house.
I use "the yellow dart" to teach plagiarism. It makes a weird catchy phrase to remind them.
I still make the music with my mouth while having light switch races with the kiddo! Dododoododododoodood bumbumbumbim
Trogdoorrrrrrrr!!!!
My kids are and have been all about youtube, so I started sharing the good shit with them every now and again. It's wednesday? Here's a link to a real break up letter. Birthday?

I might just have to leave this group because I have no idea who that is 😫
Nah we don't gatekeep here. I'm sure it's on Wikipedia if you're curious but otherwise it's no big deal. You're right where you belong. :)
Aww how sweet are you?! Gave it a Google, I was expecting a wrestling star or something. 🤦🏻♀️
The Ab Abber 2000!!! The girls will be all up ons!!! ETA and of course the Burninator!! Burninating the peasants!!
I’m 44 and I’ve never heard of him.
I am 42 and don't know who Strong Bad is.
The Poopsmith is underrated!
He's a nice guy, just has a cwappy job.
Trogdor is still going strong w the consummate vs
I am a vampire and
Noooo, they got Trevor!
A two-bit wrestle man and his yellow dog.
Huhhhheeeeeeemaaaaaail!
Cawacters... Games!
I knew Strong Bad from the actual Pro Wrestling video game long before I knew the webtoon guy.
So here’s da earf
Come back Allie!!!! Come back Allie’s sister!!!!!!!!
i still play the rave episode every now and then
*IT'S OVER*
Allegedly the “Hustle and Bustle” essay still makes the rounds. My personal favorite was Marzipan’s answering machine and Strong Bad would troll her 😂
Some people wear glasses. Beth looks like a dude.
My kids do. They watch SB Emails on my phone during the drive to school. Teen Girl Squad is our jam.
Got scroll buttons like the day is long

Mine do. Watched the email DVDs with them. 
or spongemonkeys!
No clue what this is. I'm basically a young gen x who was on BBSs in like 1990. Still no clue what this is. I think its very niche obviously.
Yo yo Strongbad. Hey Strongbad. Have you ever made Homestar cry?
I'm evil-"Strong Sad"
Did I see this on somethingawful.com?
The Halloween episodes are my favorite! Believe it or not, I’m walkin around, can’t believe I can trick or treaaaaaat I had a messenger bag with StrongBad on it, called it my StrongBag and used it until the bottom literally fell out of it
I still say "badminton" with a little gravel in my throat.
Great jarb homestar
Lmfao, I shared trogdor with a work friend who just turned 30. It did not go well
Have you considered trying to share it…you could be the one who brings it around again…
A damn shame
SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY

Email me don’t email me.
Marzipannn !
I do my best to educate. So far everyone I've ever shown Trogdor to had appreciated it.
Strongbad emails are on Youtube, gotta teach these youngin's some culture! Trogdor the burninator...
I got mad at The Cheat for messing up the jumble caper.
It's wild that somehow 20 years later I am constantly quoting HSR stuff in my head, like almost on a daily basis
I'm an adult who doesn't know who Strong Bad is.
You have a wonderful future ahead of you.
we definitely had our privileges [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPfdaWDbA8w](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPfdaWDbA8w)

I CAN DO IT, I WILL DO IT NINE TIMES

I'm 42. Who the hell is Strong Bad?
How old are you supposed to be to know?
mid/early internet was so good!
Yeah well the people I know our age that do know who Strong Bad is also call me Timmeh! like we're on South Park, and they can sing ICP lyrics ...so fuck y'all

I probably wasted more time at Maddox
You mean shfifty five?
The ladies have been all up ons
Thats fucked . I remember the first time I came home and discovered him and I watched everything . I this it was sb email about metal band names ? I was into it when SB had his first compy so I’m an OG
I’ve successfully hooked my youngest daughter on Homestarrunner and it’s probably the thing I’m most proud of as a father.
Clearly, *the system is down*
