The Only Girl

"I'm the only girl."

Since Marzipan is the only main character that is female in the Homestar Runner universe, characters sometimes lampshade that fact by remarking about it.

Appearances

• Why Come Only One Girl? — The entire toon and commentary explain why Marzipan is the only girl on the website. The commentary also explains The Brothers Chaps' numerous attempts at introducing another female character.
• Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 15.2 — Bubs asks Marzipan if she can introduce him to other ladies she might know, since she isn't his type.
• Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 17.2 — Strong Bad leaves a prank call pretending to be the new girl character, "Sharpdene", who acknowledges the fact that Marzipan was the only girl.
