''{Pom Pom and Strong Bad are standing next to The Stick.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' So I was like, ''{begins to "shake it" mockingly}'' "Well, you think you're so hot, but me hot, ''me hot''!"

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles, as if laughing}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, that's a pretty good one, huh? Oh crap, I should probably check my email. Hey, let me see your Pom Pilot!

''{Pom Pom tosses his Pom Pilot to Strong Bad, with four buttons, Internet, Email, Solitaire, and The Ladies.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing as he uses the stylus to bring up the email}'' Checkin' my email... Here at the stick... That's pretty cool... ''{clicks Email}''

<blockquote>DEAR STRONG BAD,<br />
IS IT HARD TO FLIP SOMEONE<br />
OFF WiTH BOXING GLOVES ON?<br />
VERY CRAPFULLY:<br />
PHYLO D</blockquote>
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, not really, man.

''{He holds his hand straight to the front.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm flippin' you off right now. Of course there's other ways to give somebody the finger.

''{He puts his hand behind him.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, check it out: behind the back.

''{He waves his hand in circles.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, around the world. And my personal favorite.

''{He holds both of his arms up to the side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Psssshhh! The Double Deuce! What's your favorite, Pom Pom?

''{Pom Pom holds one of his hands up.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Ah, Pom Pom likes the Single Deuce.

''{Pom Pom nods. Homestar walks on screen.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, Homestar!

''{He flips his hand to Homestar.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, right back atcha, Strong Bad!

''{Homestar walks away.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' He just gave me the bird!

'''POM POM:''' ''{bubbles, as if laughing}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That wasn't funny, man! That'll hurt a guy's feelings. ''{Brooding}'' Okay, so until next week, send me your email. I will more than likely flip you off.

''{[[The Paper]] comes down. After a few seconds, Pom Pom briefly peeks his head out from under it and then straightens back up.}''

=== <span class="mw-headline">Trivia</span> ===

* This is the first instance of a character interacting with The Paper.
* This is the only email set completely outside.
* This is the first email Strong Bad doesn't answer on his own computer.
* In the email that Strong Bad received, the "i" inside the word "with" is [[Lowercase i's|lowercase]].
* This is Pom Pom's first appearance in a Strong Bad email.
* The [[YouTube]] description for this email is "Strong Bad checks his email at the stick and shares his award-winning flip-offery."

<span id="remarks"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Remarks</span> ===

* Apparently, Pom Pom has Strong Bad's email username and password saved on to his Pom Pilot. Strong Bad didn't even have to log in.
* The page title is ''Tandy 400!!!'', even though Strong Bad is never at his computer in this email.

<span id="goofs"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Goofs</span> ===

* Strong Bad's right eye (on the viewer's left) is smaller than the other, even when he is facing the viewer, and it has the "gleam" in the wrong spot.
* Right before Strong Bad gives the [[Double Deuce]], he sets down the Pom Pilot at his feet. Then, when Homestar Runner walks by, the Pom Pilot is nowhere to be seen.
* Pom Pom and The Stick have a shadow, but Strong Bad doesn't.
* When Strong Bad gets "flipped off" by Homestar and is saddened, his arms are behind him rather than on his side.

<span id="inside-references"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Inside References</span> ===

* When Homestar flips Strong Bad the bird, it highlights his [[Lack of Visible Arms|lack of visible arms]].
