The '''Jibblies Painting''' (also referred to as that '''horrible painting''') is a creepy painting of '''Rocoulm''' (possibly '''[[Integral Article|The]] Rocoulm''') — a demon holding a torch — that manages to rank as number nine on [[Strong Bad]]'s [[bottom 10]] list. It has presumably been in [[Strong Mad's Room|Strong Mad's room]] since [[The Brothers Strong|the Brothers Strong]] were little and always gives the [[Characters|characters]], especially Strong Bad, the [[Jibblies|jibblies]]. The Rocoulm somewhat resembles the [[Jhonka]], while his head bears a striking similarity to the [[Peasant's Quest Items|Monster Maskus]], both of which are featured in [[Peasant's Quest]]. The painting has a background that fades from blue to green.

Whenever anyone encounters the painting, the Rocoulm creepily whispers the phrase "Come on in heeeeere." While the painting is usually confined to Strong Mad's closet, it broke free on [[Jibblies 2|Halloween of 2007]] and extended its disturbing invitation to each one of the main characters, incapacitating almost all of them with an incurable case of the jibblies, with the exception of [[Homsar]], who is apparently weird enough to give the painting itself a temporary case of the jibblies. [[Homestar Runner]], however, was clueless enough to accept the Rocoulm's proposal and entered inside the Jibblies Painting, where he learned that all the Rocoulm ever wanted was to entertain guests. Homestar agreed to stay for eternity in exchange for the alleviation of his friends' paralyzed condition.

The Jibblies Painting's [[Mr. Poofers]] appearance

</div>

</div>

</div>
Inside the Jibblies Painting is a very dark cave-like room with torches on the walls and a kitchen consisting of a urinal and a large sink (the Rocoulm mentions he plans to redo it). Homestar was seen entering through a sort of vortex on a wall; there appear to be no actual exits to the room. When characters enter the Jibblies Painting, they appear in a cartoony style reminiscent of [[Powered by The Cheat]] toons and their colors are dominated by [[CMYK color model|cyan, magenta, yellow, and black]].

The Rocoulm's name was discovered when his catchphrase was featured as a [[Quote of the Week]]. Before it was removed, the link to the Jibblies Painting in the [[Secret Pages XML Source|weeklies.xml]] file was "rocoulm". The demon's name was confirmed in [[Jibblies 2]], in which the name of the Jibblies Painting's tarot card is "The Rocoulm".

The Jibblies Painting was also seen in [[More Fan Costumes]] as a pumpkin. Before succumbing to the jibblies, Strong Bad states the painting is way more evil in pumpkin form. It was later seen in costume format in [[Fan Costumes '09]]. Strong Bad professes that the costume is too impressive to give him the jibblies (before succumbing to the jibblies upon seeing a child in a [[Coach Z]] costume). He may be married to [[The Goblin|the Goblin]], as revealed in [[Later That Night...]], despite Rocoulm's claim in [[Jibblies 2]] that the Goblin has "serious problems". In an [[Easter egg]] in [[Halloween Hijinks]], he tries to convince [[Mr. Poofers]] to come on in here, but ends up succumbing to his power. According to this toon, the painting is an oil-on-canvas painted by [[Old Man Rootbeer]], at least in the Mr. Poofers story world.

A Halloween [[Puppet Stuff|outdoor decoration]] of the Rocoulm appears in [[Action Cool News-oween Report]]. The animatronic's eyes light up and it plays [[Homestar Runner Original Soundtrack Volume 3|the theme from Jibblies 2]] while speaking in creepy phrases that elicit the jibblies from its listeners. The painting itself does not appear in this incarnation.

* The Rocoulm's catchphrase is identical to the phrase used to greet [[Mario]] on the first star of Big Boo's Haunt in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Also, in the same game, the "worlds" were entered by stepping or jumping into paintings, like Homestar did. Ironically, Big Boo's Haunt is the only main world that is not accessed by jumping through a flat surface.
