	<blockquote>For [[April Fool's day]] this year, I wish [[Bubs]] would feed all my sbemails into his discount neural network and see what kinda insane, eyeball-covered gold it would spit out.</blockquote>		This Tweet was followed by offers from numerous Twitter users to perform this experiment with actual neural networks. [https://twitter.com/@JanelleCShane Janelle Shane], the owner of [[artificial intelligence]] blog [http://aiweirdness.com AI Weirdness], extracted the text of every [[Strong Bad Email]] from the Homestar Runner Wiki and fed them into her neural network to produce over sixty original emails to Strong Bad, ranging from fairly coherent to unsettlingly bizarre. Strong Bad linked to Shane's "'''Discount Strong Bad emails'''" blog post on [[@StrongBadActual Tweets 2019\|April 1st]]. On [[@StrongBadActual Tweets 2019\|the 3rd]], he shared audio of himself reading and briefly responding to one of the emails, and hinted that it could be made into something like a podcast.

	Some of these emails are from familiar faces such as [[Dan]], FL from [[anything]] and Clancy from [[long pants]], while other senders, like Neal Haraldsson from Hamburg, are completely invented. The emails display a range of grammatical correctness that reflects [[Poorly Written Emails\|that of the real email show]], and make occasional oblique references to other parts of [[Homestar Runner (body of work)\|Homestar Runner]], like the mention of a ~~"~~[[Pom Pom\|pom-pom-pom]]~~"~~ and a sender named ~~"~~trudy [[Marzipan\|marzipan]]~~"~~.
