''{Close-up of a water cooler. The title words, "Biz Cas Fri" appear. Air bubbles rise into the cooler. Cut to Strong Bad at the office computer in his cubicle. Strong Bad is busily typing away, wearing a striped casual polo shirt.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ahh, I'm almost done with these third-quarter projection analysis spreadsheets, and ''still'' no sign of—

''{Homestar Runner swoops in, wearing a solid-brown casual polo shirt.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What—is up—my dog?!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ohh, I am not your dog.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Rondleman, you crack me up. ''{zooming in on each word}'' Crack! Me! Up! ''{cut back to full view}'' That's why you're my D-O-G-E!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Your ''doge?!'' What are you talking about? I'm Strong Bad! Rondleman works in Regional Shipping Management Resources.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ahaha! Good one, Rondleman. I mean, good one, ''my dog''. So, you goin' to Beach Themed Restaurant tonight? It's ladies' night! Music, dancing, they've got fake palm trees!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh yeah... I'd rather die!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cooool, can I catch a ride? Pick me up at six. Ooh, and bring plenty of cash. I'm gonna need at least five or six appeteasers.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Will you just get out of here and let me finish these spreadsheets?!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You're not done yet? I finished mine weeks ago. Let me give you a hand.

'''STRONG BAD:''' No, no, don't touch that!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{leans in and bangs his face on the keyboard}'' Uhh, doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh? Ohh, ''great!''

''{The computer produces a blue screen, reading:}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''This is just GREAT!!''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah! You can thank me later. I love that blue screen. It is also my dog. Anyways, I'll let you finish up here. See you at six!

''{Homestar swoops out.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ohhh, man! Now I gotta start all over—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{swoops in}'' Don't be late! ''{swoops out}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Start all over an—

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{swoops in}'' Ladies' night! ''{swoops out}''

* The [[Sticky Notes|sticky note]] on the wall reads "ASAP!!!", which is an [[Acronyms and Initialisms|initialism]] for "As Soon As Possible".
* A projection is a forecast about the future and, in business, usually predicts how much money the company will earn and spend.

=== <span class="mw-headline">Trivia</span> ===

* [[Know Your Meme]] [http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/doge credits this toon] as the origin of the popular "[[Doge (meme)|doge]]" meme.

* The [[YouTube]] description for this video is "Strong Bad is trying to finish the 3rd Quarter projection analysis spreadsheets."

<span id="remarks"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Remarks</span> ===

* The computer monitor Strong Bad is sitting at is an [[Apple IIe]] monitor, given away by its adjustable viewing angle screen.
* Most features on homestarrunner.com are released on Monday, but this was released on a Friday.
* "Appeteasers" is a [[Portmanteaus|portmanteau]].

<span id="goofs"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Goofs</span> ===

* After Homestar bangs his head on Strong Bad's keyboard, the "ASAP!!!" note is relocated. After the computer displays the system error message, the sticky note is back in its original place.
* After the Flamboyant System Error appears, the next cut shows the computer monitor from an angle. While Homestar is saying, "Anyways, I'll let you finish up here. See you at six!", twice Strong Bad's head goes ''behind'' the superimposed image of the error screen.

<span id="inside-references"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Inside References</span> ===

* The title of this toon stands for "Business Casual Fridays" and comes from the email [[other days]].
* "Flamboyant System Error" is another instance of [[Strong Bad's Computer Malfunctioning|Strong Bad's computer malfunctioning]].
* The "Remember the 'Tivities" motivational poster from [[no loafing]] is clearly visible on the upper part of the screen.
* The fake palms are from "Fake Palms Resort" in the [[Sketchbook (video)|sketchbook]] on the [[strongbad email.exe Disc Three|DVD]].
* The Dullard comic strip first appeared in [[dullard]]. Although the close-up of the comic is original to this toon, the comic tacked to Strong Bad's cubicle is actually the one from [[Dullard|method #3]] in the DVD version of dullard.
* Homestar is wearing the same brown shirt he wore in the [[other days]] version of Biz Cas Fri.
* Homestar calls Strong Bad [[My Dog|his dog]].

<span id="fast-forward"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Fast Forward</span> ===

* [[Vector Strong Bad]] refers to [[Stinkoman]] as his "Doge" in [[alternate universe]].

<span id="dvd-version"></span>
== <span class="mw-headline">DVD Version</span> ==

* When Homestar says, "Rondleman, you crack me up," the camera does not cut away to a closeup of him, nor does it zoom in on him when he says, "Crack! Me! Up!".
** This also happens in the YouTube Version.
