&lt;br /&gt;
The world of Homestar Runner contains several names of characters, places, sound effects, etc., where an [[Article (grammar)|article]] (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;A&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;An&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;The&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) is treated as integral to the name. With varying consistency, these names will include the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Integral Article|integral article]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, even when it makes the construction of the sentence extremely odd (&amp;quot;And out poured a lifetime supply of fishsticks. And a The Cheat!!!!&amp;quot;). [[The Cheat]] is the most renowned and recognizable example. Even for The Cheat, however, this rule is occasionally overlooked or suspended. For instance, in [[replacement]], [[Strong Bad]]&amp;#039;s epitaph reads, &amp;quot;...and kicking Cheats in the hereafter.&amp;quot; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Integral Article|(More...)]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;quot;[[How do you type with boxing gloves on?]]&amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a question that [[Strong Bad]] is asked on a regular basis in his [[Strong Bad Email|emails]]. This question greatly annoys Strong Bad, and the emails are usually seen [[DELETED]]. In the email [[fingers]], Strong Bad tried to create prosthetic fingers made of various items so people would stop asking him the question. However, this negatively affected his typing skills, to the point of being unable to read what he typed. In the email [[50 emails]], [[Old-Timey Strong Bad]] was asked a similar question, &amp;quot;How do you manage the [[Supra Modern Telegram|telegramophone]] whilst wearing gentleman&amp;#039;s sport gloves?&amp;quot; In the [[video games|DVD commentary]] for the email [[video games]], [[The Brothers Chaps]] say that they might come up with a way to answer this question someday. However, in February 2006, they also included this question as one of five topics which will likely [[Flashforward 2006 Seattle - 28 Feb 2006|never be addressed in a Strong Bad Email]]. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[How do you type with boxing gloves on?|(More...)]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
[[Strong Sad]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
is the most depressed&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
main character&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. It is unclear how he was born, as his&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
belly button&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
was apparently created by&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Strong Bad&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
using a&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
drill&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
he received for his birthday&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. He stands somewhere between&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
his brothers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
in height, and he has large, elephant-like feet he calls &amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
soolnds&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;. In the past, poachers have apparently offered large sums of money to obtain Strong Sad&amp;#039;s feet. His body is round and is two shades of grey — a lighter grey from the waist up, and darker grey from the waist down.  His head is white and has an odd lump on the top (a trait shared by&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mr. Bland&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
). He is usually very calm and soft-spoken, although he has become&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
hyperactive&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(at least once under the influence of&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
caffeine&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
), and he has also temporarily (and involuntarily) become a&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
radio DJ&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
once or twice. The words &amp;quot;Covered Bridges&amp;quot; seem to be able to put him in some type of trance, as seen in&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
met,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Strong Bad&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
tells a tale so momentous, it can only be shown in widescreen. It turns out to be a parody of the&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Original Book&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
, which includes Homestar and Strong Bad fighting over the ownership of an&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
egg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. The email was highly anticipated before its release, and some fans even went as far as to check the expected URL of the email, only to be greeted with&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not the 100th Email!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. The 100th email is also noted for being the longest&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Compy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-era email (at 5 minutes in length), having more Easter eggs than any other email on the site, and even having its own&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Office|The office]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is where [[Strong Bad]], [[Homestar Runner]], and [[The Cheat]] supposedly work. Strong Bad works in a cubicle with a [[Corpy NT6|computer]]. Homestar&amp;#039;s work area was first featured in the [[Strong Bad Email]] [[isp]] as a tech support calling center that Strong Bad called up complain about his slow internet speeds. The office has a wood-paneled boardroom equipped with a [[Whiteboard|dry-erase board]]. [[Shareholders]] meet there to discuss the earnings. The Office is also where [[Senor Cardgage]] films commercials for his mortgage company, [[Senor Cardgage Mortgage]]. It is where calls are transferred to and received by his many &amp;quot;handsome talking experts.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Cool Things]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a full-length [[toons|toon]] that was released on Monday, August 15, 2005. Coming one week after [[lady...ing]], it was the first toon in a nearly month-and-a-half stretch with no [[Strong Bad Email]]. In the toon, [[Marzipan]] sends [[Homestar Runner]] out to buy some paint in order to cover up the writing Homestar did on Marzipan&amp;#039;s wall. Homestar buys three cans of [[Yella Paint]] and a pair of [[Cool Shades|cool shades]] from [[Bubs&amp;#039; Concession Stand]]. Along the way, Homestar encounters [[Strong Sad]], and passes off the paint to him. Homestar then goes back to the concession stand to trade in the cool shades for a bag of four grapes, then returns to [[Marzipan&amp;#039;s House|Marzipan&amp;#039;s house]], only to find that she started a band with [[Strong Mad]] and [[The Cheat]] called [[Cool Tapes]].  &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Cool Things|(More...)]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;  [https://homestarrunner.com/coolthings.html watch]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Compy 386]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; was [[Strong Bad]]&amp;#039;s second computer, and in his words, &amp;quot;[[Strong Bad&amp;#039;s Technology|a spectacle of graphics and sound]].&amp;quot; He used this machine to answer his emails after the [[Tandy 400]] was thrown out at the beginning of [[invisibility]]. This machine was built by [[Compy, Inc.]] and seemed to have [[couch patch|something against The Cheat]]. Strong Bad checked 78 emails on the Compy, more than double the number of emails he checked on the Tandy (38). If you look at it from the side or from the far front, you can see that the keyboard is wireless, even though all other features of the computer are of lesser technology. Every Compy 386 email had [[Easter egg|Easter eggs]]. Although [[lures &amp;amp; jigs]] didn&amp;#039;t have any Easter eggs when it was first released; they were added later.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Marzipan]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the only female character among the [[Characters|primary characters]] of the [[Homestar Runner universe]].  She is a tall and thin character, she wears her hair in a bright yellow ponytail, and she is almost always seen wearing a purple dress with white trim and gold buttons at the bottom.  Like [[Homestar Runner]], she does not appear to have [[Lack of Visible Arms|visible arms]], but nevertheless she is able to pick up and handle objects and play her guitar, [[Carol]].  Marzipan—along with her [[20X6 Marzipan|20X6]] and [[Old-Timey Marzipan|Old-Timey]] counterparts—is voiced by [[Missy Palmer]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Marzipan is Homestar&amp;#039;s [[Homestar Runner and Marzipan&amp;#039;s Relationship|girlfriend]], and early on in the site&amp;#039;s history, this seemed to be the primary reason for her existence.  Her character has developed greatly over time, however, and their relationship no longer appears to be their main focus.  Marzipan has actually broken up with Homestar several times, some of which were due to his unintentional mean streak, others so that she could demonstrate her independence.  Luckily for Homestar, she continues to love him dearly, and the two always seem to end up together again. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Marzipan|(continued...)]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Blue Laser]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the sworn enemy of the [[Cheat Commandos]], is an evil organization that attempts to take over the planet using various schemes. They are a parody of [[Cobra Organization|COBRA]], the principal evildoers of the [[G.I. Joe]] cartoons on which the Cheat Commandos toons are based. The leader of this organization is the evil [[Blue Laser Commander]], who, with the help of army of [[Blue Laser Minion|minions]], tries to crush the Cheat Commandos. Blue Laser has a fairly high-tech operation, including a [[Blue Laser Supercomputer|supercomputer]]. Despite the possible technological edge that Blue Laser may have over the Cheat Commandos, all their schemes are destined to fail. These include trying to [[Cheat Commandos (toon)|blow up the ocean]], sending the Cheat Commandos on a [[The Desert|wild goose chase]] while the command center was [[Blue Laser Commander&amp;#039;s Nana&amp;#039;s Backyard|relocated]] and exploiting [[Price Style|Double Coupon Day]] to buy [[Grout Clean&amp;#039;r|cleaning products]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
One of the ultimate mysteries in the&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
[[Lack of Visible Arms|lack visible arms]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and hands. In spite of this potential handicap, they have the ability to pick things up and carry them around. The most common explanations for the phenomenon are that they either have invisible arms or can manipulate objects with some kind of&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
psychokinesis&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. Usually none of the other characters seem to pay attention to this curiosity, although sometimes their lack of hands is referenced.&lt;br /&gt;

They conducted an hour and fifteen minute long session called &amp;quot;How and Why [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] Cartoons Get Made.&amp;quot; They provided details about how they animate the cartoons and make the games. They also previewed an [[Flashforward|unreleased cartoon]] and fielded many questions from the audience.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
[[The Cheat]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
is decidedly &amp;quot;holy crap adorable&amp;quot;. He speaks entirely in a language of high-pitched squeaks and growls, which is actually called &amp;quot;The Cheat&amp;quot;, and other characters apparently understand it just fine. The Cheat is loyal to&lt;br /&gt;

, protected by&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
. He sprung from the wild imagination of&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Strong Bad&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
when he was asked to show his &amp;quot;skills of an artist.&amp;quot; Trogdor quickly became a popular Internet character, developing into one of the most recognizable figures from the&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Homestar Runner&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
body of work, both on the Internet and in the real world. The dragon inspired the production of games such as&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Yearbook Character Page]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
was a school-themed characters page, which directly preceded the current&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Character Videos&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
page. It featured 11 main characters, which included&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Poopsmith&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
but didn&amp;#039;t yet include&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Homsar&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. Selecting each character brings up a short description of his or her personality and role within the group, along with a repeating animated image.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Strong Mad&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;s character page was later featured in&lt;br /&gt;

.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is an &amp;quot;autographs&amp;quot; portion of the yearbook where some of the guys have signed &amp;quot;your&amp;quot; book for you. Their character traits are further emphasized by their comments and handwriting. [[Strong Sad]]&amp;#039;s superb penmanship is seen here, as well as [[Pom Pom]]&amp;#039;s phone numbers. [[Strong Bad]]&amp;#039;s handwriting is not yet the common [[Fonts|AhnbergHand]] that appears in all [[Teen Girl Squad]] comics. It can also be noted that Strong Mad &amp;#039;&amp;#039;can&amp;#039;&amp;#039; write, but spelling remains a hurdle.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Pom Pom]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (also spelled &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Pom-Pom&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) is a Pom from the [[Pom Pom, Too|Isle of Pom]]. Pom Pom, like all Poms, appears to be inflated. He talks by making bubbly noises and can store stuff by absorbing objects into his body, suggesting that he&amp;#039;s made of some sort of carbonated/gelatinous substance. Pom Pom is a friend of both [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Strong Bad]]. He is often on [[Cell Phones|his cell phone]] talking to his many [[Pom Pom&amp;#039;s Girls|girlfriends]] and taking karate. He was going to have a dog named [[Rejected Characters|Trivia Time]], but this concept seems to have been abandoned. He also has a &amp;quot;wicked [[Pom Pilot]]&amp;quot;. Pom Pom&amp;#039;s parent&amp;#039;s names are [[General and Fraulein Pom Pom]], as seen in an Easter egg in the Strong Bad E-mail [[pom pom]]. Pom Pom has such an open mind that he has even made friends with such characters as the [[The King of Town|King of Town]] and [[The Poopsmith]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
[[The Geddup Noise]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
was the chair-on-wood sound&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Strong Bad&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
made when he got up from his computer and sat back down, even though the stool was scraping against carpet. Strong Bad originally called it &amp;quot;the get up noise&amp;quot; in the email&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the bet&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. It inspired&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
DJ Teh Cheat&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
to create a Geddup Noise indie-tronic remix, which&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pom Pom&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
used as a ring tone for his&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
cell phone&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
in&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
technology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. According to Strong Bad, The Geddup Noise eventually bought a house in the Coches and now just snowboards all day, still occasionally popping up in very odd celebrity endorsements. In the email&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
geddup noise&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
, it was established that Chairscoot replaced The Geddup Noise somewhere around email #84 (&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
kids&amp;#039; book&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
) and now provides the sound effect for Strong Bad leaving his computer.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Flash Store]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; was the Flash-based marketplace on [[homestarrunner.com]] where visitors could browse Homestar merchandise. The actual purchases were handled through a Yahoo storefront. The store links on HomestarRunner.com now direct users directly to the redesigned [[Store|Yahoo Store]]. Several things available in the Flash Store are not available in the redesigned store. In particular, the [[Kick The Cheat (game)|Kick The Cheat]] game and the [[strongbad email.exe DVD Promo]] could only be found in the Flash Store.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[They Might Be Giants]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a popular rock band that has collaborated with [[The Brothers Chaps]] on several occasions. The band leaders are [[index.php/John Flansburgh|John Flansburgh]] and [[index.php/John Linnell|John Linnell]]. They currently record and tour with [[index.php/Dan Miller|Dan Miller]], [[index.php/Dan Weinkauf|Danny Weinkauf]], and [[index.php/Marty Beller|Marty Beller]]. They Might Be Giants furnished the music for the [[Strong Bad Email]] &amp;quot;[[different town]].&amp;quot; They later jammed with [[Homestar Runner]] in the [[Puppet Jam|Puppet Jam series]]. The Brothers Chaps animated the [[Experimental Film|video]] for &amp;quot;[[index.php/Experimental Film|Experimental Film]],&amp;quot; one of the songs from They Might Be Giants&amp;#039; 2004 CDs &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[index.php/The Spine|The Spine]], [[index.php/The Spine Hits The Road|The Spine Hits The Road]], and [[index.php/Almanac|Almanac]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.

&lt;br /&gt;
As with all famous cartoon character ensembles, [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] went through its fair share of character line-up changes early on, before the final group of twelve main characters was chosen. The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Rejected Characters]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are those that seem to have been abandoned, with very few sightings to date. Some appeared in an early toon or game, while others are only seen in the [[Sketchbook (museum)|Museum Sketchbook]] or the [[Character Cards]]. Often, they are humorously referenced by [[The Brothers Chaps]], such as Homeschool Winner in [[Sample of Style]], or the Unguraits in the [[Sketchbook|sketchbook]]. All that is known about them is that any substantial appearances in the future are doubtful.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Strong Bad]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is one of the most well-known characters in the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] body of work. He started out as the villain who always tried to cheat his way to the top but was always doomed to fail before [[Homestar Runner]]. Now he&amp;#039;s less of a villain and more of a highly expanded form of comic relief. He answers [[Strong Bad Email|e-mails]] with a passion, usually on Mondays. He&amp;#039;s [[Strong Sad]]&amp;#039;s big brother and [[Strong Mad]]&amp;#039;s little brother. His is the dominant personality and he loves to push everyone around: he&amp;#039;s often abusing Homestar, [[Kicking The Cheat|kicking]] [[The Cheat]], [[Marzipan&amp;#039;s Answering Machine|prank-calling]] [[Marzipan]], or [[Strong Bad and Strong Sad&amp;#039;s Relationship|tormenting]] Strong Sad. He also writes and illustrates the [[Teen Girl Squad]] comics. Strong Bad owns his own country, [[Strong Badia]], a barren field behind the [[Dumpster|Dumpsters]] that is completely devoid of any sentient life.&lt;br /&gt;

occurred on September 5, 2005. They were interviewed at&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dragon Con 2005&lt;br /&gt;

, which is the basis of the toon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TrogdorCon &amp;#039;97&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. They talked about the current status of the&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
under development by&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
for the&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
and&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stinkoman 20X6&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
, as well as discussed the frustrations and limitations of programming games in Flash. One of their potential future projects that they mentioned is a&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheat Commandos&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
game. Jonathan Howe disclosed how he came to help The Brothers Chaps with their programming, talked about his role in making the games.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Original Book|The Homestar Runner Enters the Strongest Man in the World Contest]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the original children&amp;#039;s book written by [[Mike Chapman]] and [[Craig Zobel]] that started it all. The [[Museum|museum]] archives the story plus some alternate cover ideas. In the book, [[Homestar Runner|The Homestar Runner]], [[Pom Pom]], [[Strong Bad]], and three other characters enter the Strongest Man in the World Contest. Strong Bad tries to cheat with the help of a furry yellow animal,  thus given the unique name, &amp;quot;[[The Cheat]].&amp;quot; Strong Bad later made a [[Strumstar Hammer|revised edition]] of the story in the email &amp;quot;[[kids&amp;#039; book]].&amp;quot; The book was also spoofed in the 100th email &amp;quot;[[flashback]],&amp;quot; which in turn inspired [[Main Page 20]].&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minor Teen Girl Squad Characters|Minor characters]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are regularly created in [[Teen Girl Squad]], and only make cameo appearances. Some exist only for the purpose of hurting one of the girls. Usually they are never seen again, but in the [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 10|10th Issue special]], many of these characters made cameo appearances at [[The Ugly One]]&amp;#039;s Sweet Someteen Birthday Bash.

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Homestar Runner]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the star of his namesake website, but he probably doesn&amp;#039;t realize it. Ever the butt of jokes and the recipient of [[Nicknames|nicknames]], Homestar is an earnest character with a clean heart and nothing but love for the rest of mankind. Unfortunately, his absolute cluelessness and clumsiness keep him from realizing his full potential. He&amp;#039;s not completely stupid, though, and has proven to be remarkably clever in the past, though such occurances are few and far between. You can never be quite sure whether he and [[Marzipan]] are going out or not, but he sure seems to think they are.  According to the toon [[Marshmallow&amp;#039;s Last Stand]], he weighs about one hundred pounds.&lt;br /&gt;
