''From the [[FeedBurner|FeedBurner page]]:''

<blockquote>"Like two sides of an extremely rare, valuable, and attractive coin, there's Strong Bad the grammar policeman on one hand, and Strong Bad the guy that makes up a buncha crap all the time on t'other."</blockquote>
Although [[Strong Bad]] is quite obsessive about everyone's [[Poorly Written Emails|spelling, grammar, and punctuation]], he still '''makes some of the same mistakes himself'''. Additionally, he has a tendency to make up words, usually during his [[Strong Bad Email|emails]]. It may be [[The Brothers Chaps]]' fault for some of these mistakes, as they are rarely acknowleged in toons.

<span id="strong-bads-mistakes"></span>
== <span class="mw-headline"> Strong Bad's Mistakes </span> ==

* [[The Luau]] — Strong Bad misspells ''you're'' as ''your'' on the invitation to his marshmallow roast.
* Email [[some kinda robot]] — In his very first email, Strong Bad says "before you ''go'' to bed" but types "before you ''got'' to bed."
* Email [[i love you]] — ''[[Fhqwhgads]]'' is misspelled as ''Fhqwgads'', missing the h in between w and g. Ironically, Strong Bad [[sibbie|later]] complains about people misspelling it in emails.
* Email [[i she be]] — Strong Bad types the phrase "all i gotta say..." [[Lowercase i's|The i isn't capitalized]].
* Email [[duck pond]] — Strong Bad misspells ''unfortunately'' as ''unfortunatley''.
* Email [[band names]] — A space is added before, rather than after, a comma in this email: ''"the easiest way is to ,you know..."''
* Email [[theme party]], [[funny]], [[labor day]], — Strong Bad types ''woah'' instead of ''whoa''.
* Email [[dullard]] — Strong Bad incorrectly uses the one-word adjective ''everyday'' instead of the two-word adverb ''every day''.
* Email [[techno]], [[Greeting Cards]] — Strong Bad uses the possessive form ''its'' instead of the contraction ''it's''. Ironically, he later lampoons Dan D. through song in [[local news]] for the same mistake.
* Email [[cheat talk]], [[the show]], [[date]], [[impression]] — Strong Bad does not capitalize the "''[[Integral Article|the]]''" in [[The Cheat]]'s name.
* Email [[dragon]] — After demonstrating how to draw [[Trogdor]], Strong Bad says, "Let's see how the other students are doing." However, when he types it, he omits the word ''see''.
* Email [[interview]] — Strong Bad catches himself using the phrase ''more better'' in responding to Kerrek.
* Email [[the show]] — Strong Bad first capitalizes ''The Cheat'' as ''the cheat'', then as ''the Cheat''.
* Email [[funny]] — At the beginning of the email, Strong Bad misspells the filename of his email client, ''strongbad_email.exe'', as ''[[Stong Bad|stongbad]]_email.exe''. This was intentionally done by The Brothers Chaps, as it brings up an error message.
* Email [[the process]] — After stating that he makes fun of people's poor grammar and spelling, Strong Bad promptly misspells the word ''occasionally'' as ''occassionally''.
* Email [[local news]] — Strong Mad's subtitle, written on an [[Index Cards|index card]], reads "''Sportscarster'' Strong Mad." Strong Bad seems to be the culprit of this misspelling because it matches his handwriting, and because he threw together the news broadcast.
* Email [[monument]] — After explaining that he was distracted by [[The Thnikkaman|the Thnikkaman]], Strong Bad omits a period: "So you can see why I got distracted".
* Email [[flashback]] — Strong Bad says "less non-broken bones" instead of "''fewer'' non-broken bones".

* Email [[pizzaz]] — The accepted spellings of this email's title, ''pizazz'' and ''pizzazz'', are not used in this email. Strong Bad not only misses this, he even uncharacteristically adopts the misspelling throughout the email.
* Email [[time capsule]], [[garage sale]] — Strong Bad unnecessarily capitalizes ''Mom''.
* Email [[part-time job]] — Strong Bad neglects to use a question mark at the beginning: "What do you mean do I do anything else besides checking emails."
* Email [[origins]] — Curiously, Strong Bad misspells ''curiosity'' as ''curiousity''.
* Email [[bottom 10]] — Though it is spelled properly in the bottom 10 list, the word ''chocolate'' appears as ''chocloate'' on Strong Bad's monitor at the end of the email.
* [[Trogdor Con '97]] — Strong Bad asks The Cheat if they'll be selling "million-sided ''dies''", rather than the correct plural of ''die'', ''dice''.
* Email [[portrait]] —
** The period in "Nobody calls you Coolio da Fabio (aka quit making up nicknames for yourself.)" should be outside the parentheses, rather than inside.
** He uses a period rather than a question mark at the end of "Or what about one of those black and white ink portraits you see in all the rich-guy newspapers."
* Email [[myths & legends]] — After criticizing Cephas for spelling "Strong Bad" as one word, Strong Bad makes a similar mistake by misspelling "roller coasters" as "rollercoasters".
* Email [[secret identity]] — When Strong Bad asks "have you ever seen [[The Poopsmith]] and I...", it should be "The Poopsmith and ''me''".
* Email [[pop-up]] — Strong Bad types ''four year-old''. As an adjective for the implied noun "child", it should be written ''four-year-old''.
* Email [[unnatural]] — Strong Bad forgets to put a comma after "apostrophes" in "Watch out where you're flinging those apostrophes nobody."

* Email [[business trip]] — Strong Bad says "could've swam better" instead of "could've swum better".
* [[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]] — In the second email, Strong Bad's reply omits the word ''is'' in the remark "Dangeresque is a serious guy, okay?".
* Email [[dictionary]] —
** Strong Bad misspells the word ''guttural'' as ''gutteral''.
** Strong Bad says "less words" when he should say "fewer words".
* [[@StrongBadActual]] —
