Fun Facts

Trivia

Until the post-Flash site update, this and Main Page 2 were the only two main pages to have just "Homestar Runner" as the page title.

Remarks

When Homestar wears the sunglasses, both of his eyes are behind one lens.

Glitches

On "Toons", the boat pauses for a moment just before its horn toots. This is due to the sound being loaded, which probably is of a large file size.
On "Characters", the splash sound effect plays just before the coconut hits the water.
The monkey that descends in the "E-mail" effect is partially visible behind the branches of the tree. This is not the case for "Characters".

Inside References

The white whale is bleeding.

Real-World References

The white whale is likely a reference to Moby Dick.

Fast Forward

"Wear a Bikini!" would later be used many other times on the site.
The Toons, Games, and Store effects are all referenced in island, though on the Store effect, Homestar says "Email" instead.
In Front Facing, one of the Easter eggs is Front Facing Homestar attacking this page as a ship.
