Aw, they didn't include the Easter egg for Homsar's record book entry. The Semi-Annual Mustard Man Award! (Or Best Offer!) Somehow I have that memorized after all these years.
Fortunately with some later emails the easter eggs are just at the end of the video, after The Paper comes down, but it would have def been nixe to see happen with every email @KairuHakubi
In retrospect, it would have been funnier if the book was sponsored by Cold Ones. The Guinness Book was first compiled by the brewery as a promotional item intended to settle disputes among barflies.
When I was in 5th grade, I wrote an essay about what it means to not judge a book by its cover and at one point in the essay, I referenced this by saying something like “Well, let’s take a look. A book look.”
This episode has what is easily my favorite Homestar Runner character moment. Homestar is not only impersonating Jeff Foxworthy, but he laughs at his jokes before his own punchline and he thinks that blue collar comedy counts as an entry into a record book.
I mean, he has a point, sort of. 1:03 "Count Longardeaux's Book of Party Tricks, Redneck Jokes, and Worldly Records." So a good redneck joke would probably get him in the book, if not the records part of it.
Been watching these since like 2003, I was 8. You guys are still funny, thank you you talented humble dudes. P.S. This is also around the time I discovered TMBG, and then ya'll collaborated.
I’ve been showing them to a friend of mine, who never watched Homestar Runner until a year ago and now he’s hooked on it. For me, it was like revisiting my childhood week by week and I would have these snapshots in my mind of where I was when these came out.
The KoT has several salt shakers labeled with the number 7. In the “Meet Marshie” cartoon, ‘lunch’ is shown as a plate of marshmallows covered with tomato slices, beside which is a salt and pepper shaker, labeled ‘7’ and ‘3’ respectively.
I love how Homestar keeps thinking it's a joke book lol That other type of compilation book we pored through as kids. 😅 Perfect example of Homestar's particular brand of confusion! Just like thinking he's an actual ant because Bubs is giant
Strong bad throwing his breakfast on the old book and the King of Town eating salt and his subsequent heart attacks are two of the funniest things I've ever seen. This email is in my top 5 emails, and deserves to be in a record book itself. Seriously, where do the Brothers Chaps come up with such amazing bits?
I once legitimately thought that strong bad threw his breakfast accidentally on his ‘dirtiest diapy’ record because he was so shocked by a disturbing record. But I guess he did it on purpose to save face
The characters of HR are in a bizarre state where they're socially accepted as human while at the same time being at least somewhat aware that they're non-human.
I think I'm going to have my local UPS store print me a copy of Count Longardeaux's record book. Probably blank inside, but it'll look so fine next to my toilet.
So for the record (no pun intended), A single grain of basmati rice is 0.2 x 6.61 mm, so the rough surface area would be a little over 41.5 millimeters. Paradise Lost was an epic written in 10 books, with a cumulative total of over 60,000 words; Written in 4 languages, you're looking at a rough estimate of well over 240,000 words total. I believe Strong sad achieved this record as much as I believe he rented the V.I. Warshawski DVD.
I just realized today that the entire 4th chapter of that record book is at least 72 pages long (like, larger than the first 3 chapters combined, apparently.) Must’ve had a lot of smell records back in the day, huh? (Also, apparently, I fear the King of Town’s power level if a heart attack is nothing more than a hiccup to him.)
Only just now, all these years later, do I realise that Strong Bad’s record titles him ‘The Human Strong Bad’, I know it’s the first time because I absolutely lost it
Homsar set the world record for putting nine pieces of chewed gum on his face and singing the "I'm Just Me" song while hopping around on one foot. And nobody's talking about that??? What an accomplishment!
Honestly, we all probably break random, useless world records every day without trying. Right now I could be breaking the record for shortest amount of time it took to type a 38-worded comment on a TH-cam video.
