'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{types "run Strongbad's__email"}'' I remember the time when I checked my email.

<blockquote>Dear Strong Bad,<br />
Every time I watch a cartoon with you in it,<br />
I can't help but realize how incredibly gorgeous<br />
you are. I love the way you walk around without<br />
your shirt on so confidently. Anyways, I<br />
was wondering if you would like to go<br />
out sometime. Give me a call, Pom-<br />
Pom has my number.<br />
<br />
Hopefully yours,<br />
Brian</blockquote>
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{clears screen}'' Oh, ''{typing, speaking suavely}'' well, Brian, maybe you and I could— ''{stops typing}'' uh— ''{becomes shocked and angry}'' hey... BRIAN!? What the crap? ''{typing}'' Look, man. Unless Brian is short for... Brianrietta or Brian-Sue or something like that it's just not gonna work out between you and me, okay? ''{skips down some space}'' Sorry to crush your hopes and dreams, - Strong Bad ''{stops typing}'' Okay, so until next week... 1, 2, 3, email me! 1, 2, 4, email me more!

''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''

* [[The Brothers Chaps]] did several important things for the first time with this email:
** The email uses a new typing sound effect—without the buzz.
** Strong Bad begins using his current voice (he no longer has his quasi-Mexican accent).
** Strong Bad begins to be animated in his [[Strong Bad Evolution|sixth design]].
** This is the first email to use the current style of animation, where Strong Bad's head bobs and the reflection of his mouth is obscured by the back of his head. As discussed in the [[some kinda robot|some kinda robot DVD commentary]], this change was made to shorten the amount of time an email would take to animate — though the Chaps noted this method of animation soon began to take "''way'' longer than it ever took to just make his mouth move."
* This is one of the only emails to use differing margins.
* This is one of the very few emails where Strong Bad actually signs his name at the end.
* Prior to the nine-month hiatus between [[email thunder]] and [[hremail 3184]], the time between this email and the previous one, [[halloweener]], had been the longest delay in between any two emails, at 71 days.
** This is also the first email put on the site after The Brothers Chaps decided to make Strong Bad Email a "relatively" weekly feature.

* The keyboard can still be heard when Strong Bad pauses at the end of sentences and when he pauses to type Brianrietta and Brian-Sue.
