Commentary Transcript

(Commentary by: Matt Chapman, Mike Chapman)

MATT: I did this... on Thanksgiving. I didn't think of it until Thanksgiving, and put it up, like, at— at 11:00 p.m. on Thanksgiving.

MIKE: {laughs}

MATT: That was when I lived in New York and I did it all myself.

MIKE: There's some size issues happening with all those characters!

MATT: Yeah, not to scale.

MIKE: Yeah.

MATT: Yeah, I don't think that any of them are correct. {Homestar invites all to partake of the wonderous feast} {sadly} Okay...

MIKE: Oh, I— I did remember I like this King of Town, uh, all the plates.

MATT: Yeah?

MIKE: Stacked-up plates.

MATT: Were you impressed with my style?

MIKE: Yeah, 'cause Matt did this one all by himself.

MATT: {stifles laughter} Those very flat... hills in the background. And there's shading on them.

MIKE: Not advanced shading, anyway.

MATT: {laughs} No-ho, sir!
