''The Poopsmith is not amused.''

Because of his vow of silence, [[The Poopsmith]] had to find alternative ways of communicating. One of them is by holding up '''signs''' (pulled out from [[Hammerspace|hammerspace]]), à la [[Looney Tunes]] character [[Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner|Wile E. Coyote]]. The [[Fonts|font]] originally used on these signs, Peanuts, is modeled after the lettering used in the comic strip ''[[Peanuts]]''.

== Appearances ==

* [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]] — The Poopsmith holds a sign saying "I'm #2" while in the crowd with the other spectators.
* [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]] — If you give The Poopsmith and [[Pom Pom]] the [[Mary Jane (candy)|Mary Jane]] candy as their treat, The Poopsmith holds up a sign that reads "Give us something good instead", to Pom Pom's amusement.
* Email [[the show]] — While [[Homestar Runner]] talks to him, The Poopsmith holds up a sign reading, "Hey, um, I'm gonna go now." He then leaves [[The Show]].
* [[Jibblies 2]] — When he and [[The King of Town]] get the [[Jibblies|jibblies]], his mouth quivers and he holds out a sign that says "Jibblie Jibblie".
* [[Homestar Ruiner]] — When The Poopsmith notices that [[Strong Bad]] is trespassing in [[The King of Town's Castle]], he holds up a sign either saying "!!" or "You Again?!". Somehow, this summons over [[Strong Mad]] from one or two rooms over. When Strong Bad enters the vent The Poopsmith has signs that say "?" and "???". When he mans [[Bubs' Concession Stand]] in the absence of [[Bubs]], he has a sign that reads "Half off all [[Whatsit|whatsit]]".
* [[Strong Badia the Free]] — When Homestar and the Poopsmith battle in [[Maps and Minions]], Homestar kicks the Poopsmith, who responds by holding up a sign that says "Ouch!" and retreating.
* [[Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective]] — When Strong Bad as [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]] saves The Poopsmith, who plays a [[Kidnapping Victim|kidnapping victim]], he holds up a sign that reads, "I'm saved!" When Dangeresque says that he was a little girl who now became a beautiful woman, he holds up a second sign reading, "Awwww thanks".
* [[8-Bit is Enough|8-Bit Is Enough]] — The Poopsmith (as Mista Fixit) holds up a sign that says "Let's build something!" while holding a pixelated hammer. He also has a sign covered with illegible squares. Also, when Strong Bad asks how much it would cost to build a 200-foot wall around [[Marzipan]]'s house, The Poopsmith responds by holding up a sign with "$$$" on it. (At first, Strong Bad interprets this as "three dollars" before The Poopsmith corrects him.)
* [[Haunted Photo Booth]] — Pom Pom holds a speech bubble reading "Why are we in this cartoon?", to which the Poopsmith responds with a speech bubble reading "Don't know. Don't care."
* [[Halloween Hide & Seek]] — The Poopsmith makes extensive use of his signs throughout the game to respond to other characters.
