	In the continuity of the [[Homestar Runner universe]], it's often unclear if things are ~~made up or really happen~~. Occasionally, '''something that is clearly made up later appears as a real thing''', typically without any particular reason or cause. While a fair number of these instances have been fruits of [[Strong Bad]]'s [[History according to Strong Bad\|imagination]], the other residents of [[Free Country, USA]] have periodically created something in their heads that later on ~~mysteriously become real~~. Whether or not the inventors of these mind-bending, reality-defying creatures and creations had anything to do with them, or if they ~~pre-~~existed their alleged conception, is never revealed nor explained for the most part~~, so this bizzare~~, blurred line between fantasy and reality remains one of the great inexplicable mysteries in the Homestar Runner universe.

''"Wait, is Senor Cardgage real?!"''

''From the [[Decomposing Pumpkins]] [[FeedBurner]] description:''

<blockquote>
>'''STRONG BAD:''' I kinda black out a lot lately and when I wake up sometimes things I made up in my brain come to life. I practically pee my pants every time a Cheat Commandos comes on.
</blockquote>

In the continuity of the [[Homestar Runner universe]], it's often unclear if things are made up or really happen. Occasionally, '''something that is clearly made up later appears as a real thing''', typically without any particular reason or cause. While a fair number of these instances have been fruits of [[Strong Bad]]'s [[History according to Strong Bad|imagination]], the other residents of [[Free Country, USA]] have periodically created something in their heads that later on mysteriously become real. Whether or not the inventors of these mind-bending, reality-defying creatures and creations had anything to do with them, or if they pre-existed their alleged conception, is never revealed nor explained for the most part, so this bizzare, blurred line between fantasy and reality remains one of the great inexplicable mysteries in the Homestar Runner universe.
