Strong Bad Creators Interviewed
Bill Hughes writes "The folks over at ResExcellence have posted an interview with the Brothers Chapman, the two guys who create and run the Homestar Runner/Strong Bad web site." If you have not seen homestarrunner, prepare to be baffled and amused. This site has mostly justified Flash to me :)
Good to see that the slashdot community knows about this hillarious website. I discovered it just a few months ago, and have been laughing my ass off at it ever since.
So for the past few weeks homestarrunner.com has been spottily reachable at best...
A day or two ago they were back up to full speed...
And now they are slashdotted...
Just as I was going to check the latest strongbad email...
"Page can not be displayed"
Truly I am baffled, but not that amused.
I see you jocking me; trying to play like, u no me.
Everybody to the limit, the Cheat is to the limit.
I said, come on, fhwqwhgads!

Hu-woah-whoa-whoa! This interview shanked my jengaship!

TROGDOR THE BURNINATOR!!!
The majesty! The burninating!
awww, you bwoke it!
Yeah, lemme know where I can download the Lynx plugin for Flash...
(seriously! what about AAlib? or maybe just an "external handler" that uses SDL:SVGAlib? They ought to write a Flash engine in Java---sure it's slow, but it's portable.)

Oh, support for alternate operating systems justifies software's existence? Cool! Be sure to buy my clone of Pong for the DEC Alpha when I finish it.
Dear Website,
Maybe if your audience had any kind of a freakin' life they would have something better to do than all rush to the computer to watch me answer my emails. Ya' gotta admit, that is pretty sad. And I live with Strong Sad, so I know pathetic, believe me.
Sincerely,
Strong Bad

Well, Website, it's like this. The first thing you have to do is just not worry about it and go feed the ducks. It's kind of fun and after a while it gets even better. Also, and this is very important, never install a power switch for The Cheat to use.

Slashdot has caused this:

(People who are fans of homestarrunner will get this.)
My favorite is when he's asked if he plays guitar.
"Jug jugga jug jugga jug jugga jug jugga JAH JAH!"
But Trogdor is a close second.

off-topic, but anyway
Strong Bad: So, I have heard you like to prance around like an idiot, is this true?
Steve Ballmer: WHOO!! Give It Up For Me!!!!! WHOO!!
Strong Bad: Well I guess that answers that question.
Dear Slashdot,
I've noticed my website is just TOO FAST, and I'm not paying neraly enough for webhosting. Please help!
Sincerely,
Website.
