- Email 50 emails — Homestar Runner posts a fake error message after crashing the Compy 386. The error message's title bar reads "This is real."
- The System is Down, Sbemail 100 Fakeout, and Main Page 22 — Similar fake error messages to the above appear with "This is real." in the title bar.
- Email unused emails (Easter egg) — Bubs's spam message insists "THIS IS NOT A JOKE!! THIS IS REAL!!!"
