In many instances of text in the Homestar Runner body of work, '''[[Lowercase i's|lowercase ''i'''s]]''' appear where they normally wouldn't. This subtle quirk originated with [[Strong Bad]]'s handwriting; the capital ''i'' of the [[Fonts|font]] used (AhnbergHand) looks like a lowercase ''i'', so any time Strong Bad needs to write one, it appears as if it were lowercase.

In many instances of text in the Homestar Runner body of work, lowercase i's' appear where they normally wouldn't. This subtle quirk originated with Strong Bad's handwriting; the capital i of the font used (AhnbergHand) looks like a lowercase i, so any time Strong Bad needs to write one, it appears as if it were lowercase. The most famous instance is in dragon, where he labels his drawing TROGDOR the BURNiNATOR, although in this case he does actually use a capital i. Strong Bad's handwriting can also be seen throughout every issue of Teen Girl Squad. Over time, Strong Bad's handwriting was used more and more, and the lowercase i was seen more frequently. Gradually, this idiosyncrasy crossed over to the other fonts featured on the website. It soon became evident that The Brothers Chaps decided to make most uppercase is lowercase, no matter what font was being used, as an inside joke. (more...)
