Good Graphics
From HR Wiki Twice
"WHAT DID I TELL YOU TO DO?" "To make good graphics..."
There have been several mentions of good graphics, particularly in the Videlectrix aspect of the Homestar Runner universe. Specifically, they are the obsession of one of the Videlectrix Guys. However, all depictions of alleged "good graphics" look to be from video game consoles from the early 1980s.
