			'''Fhqwhgads''' is the shortened version of "'''fhqwhgadshgnsdhjsdbkhsdabkfabkveybvf'''", the signature of [[Strong Bad Email By Name of Sender\|the sender]] of the [[Strong Bad Email]] "[[i love you]]".

			The nonsensical name appears to be meaningless, random typing as many letters in this name are next to each other on a typical [[QWERTY]] keyboard. When replying to the email, Strong Bad shortened the unwieldy 36-letter name to "fhqwhgads"; the full-length version of the name is so long that Strong Bad painted a [[Painting of a Guy with a Big Knife\|picture of a Guy with a Big Knife]] in the same amount of time it took to pronounce it.

			The correct pronunciation is ''"fuh-HOO-qwah-gahds"'' ([[International Phonetic Alphabet chart for English dialects\|IPA]]: /<span style="border-bottom:1px dotted"><span title="'f' in 'find'">f</span><span title="/ə/: 'a' in 'about'">ə</span>·<span title="/ˈ/: primary stress follows">ˈ</span><span title="'h' in 'hi'">h</span><span title="/ʊ/: 'oo' in 'book'">ʊ</span>·<span title="'k' in 'kind'">k</span><span title="'w' in 'wind'">w</span><span title="/ə/: 'a' in 'about'">ə</span>·<span title="/ɡ/: 'g' in 'guy'">ɡ</span><span title="/ɑː/: 'a' in 'father'">ɑː</span><span title="'d' in 'dye'">d</span><span title="'z' in 'zoom'">z</span></span>/), shown in an Easter egg at the end of [[sibbie]] where Strong Bad gives [[Homestar Runner]], [[Coach Z]] and [[Strong Mad]] a lesson in pronouncing "fhqwhgads".

			Strong Bad wrote a song about Fhqwhgads, entitled "[[Everybody to the Limit]]", which [[The Cheat]] [[Powered by The Cheat\|directed a music video]] for. The repetition of the name in the song lyrics has led to "Fhqwhgads" being used as an alternative title, such as [[Fhqwhgads (karaoke)\|in the karaoke video]]. Although vague about who or what Fhqwhgads is, the song and video portray Fhqwhgads as an unpopular, pathetic fan of Strong Bad trying to imitate him and enjoy his popularity; Strong Bad mentions at the end of the song that he actually feels sorry for Fhqwhgads.

			A [[Music recording certification\|gold record]] of the song was seen in [[your friends]], indicating the song had sold over 500,000 copies. Strong Bad's "[[Everybody to the Limit (Live)\|Live from West Reykjavik]]" performance of this song was included on the album [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]]. Due to the song's lasting success, Strong Bad proposed a sequel for its tenth anniversary in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 17.2]]; called "Let's Fhqwhgads Again", the song primarily consists of repeating "fhqwhgads" and referencing "Everybody to the Limit" (much to the dissatisfaction of the [[Visor Robot]]).

			In [[Main Page 22]], samples of the Visor Robot saying "fhqwhgads" from "Everybody to the Limit" are used.

The full-length version of the name takes such a long time to say that Strong Bad can paint a [[Painting of a Guy with a Big Knife\|picture of a Guy with a Big Knife]] in the same amount of time, so it is easy to see how the nickname arose. "fhqwhgadshgnsdhjsdbkhsdabkfabkveybvf" has 36 letters.		In the music video for "Everybody to the Limit", Fhqwhgads is portrayed by an illustration of the [[Atari Dragon]]. This interpretation of Fhqwhgads has stuck, with later references to the name being accompanied by the dragon.
