I remember this one time I was at a summer festival, and the band played "Here I Go Again On My Own", and all I could think about was "Some of my buses".
My favorite "Powered by the Cheat" toon of all time most likely. It's still adorable as shit. It's kind of like drawing a picture of your dad because you think he's cool.
For years, I thought "here I go again on my own" was like "look ma, no hands." Like he's showing off that he can cartwheel and fly. I didn't realize til today that it's a White Snake reference. -_-
'Summa mah buses' always reminds me of the home page variant that was inspired by strong bad's virus email, when edgarware showed up it would say "Summa mah buses!"
"Thanks, for cheering me on." and "How did what's your secret" have entered my vocabulary solely because of this email. I also sometimes say "So yes, Jimmy-Jimmy..."
This was the first sbemail I ever saw (because it was the current one at the time). So naturally I was like "...are they all like this?" and my first impression of the series was... very weird (of a series that's already plenty weird to begin with, mind you). To be honest I'm not sure I would have given the site a second look if I had started with one of the more "traditional" emails, so... perfect timing, I guess?
Wow after all these years I just realized he made a reference to that song... "Here I go again on my own" idk the name of it, but that's probably the name of it
When I was a kid I would recite this entire email so incessantly that I'm amazed my parents are relatively sane. My friends and I would even do it together. Good times.
Fun fact for those unaware, Mike does almost every voice for the H⭐️R, but his brother Matt (who mostly animates all of the toons) does the voices for the powered by the cheat toons
I never noticed the busses say Skol on them which is a nice touch because the email came from Minnesota. I've never heard of The Lodge though, pretty sure that isn't a city here.
It's not just you. One of TBC actually said in some interview somewhere that he "sounds like he's Fat Albert, like he's 800 pounds" or something like that. That "jumped ovah summa mah BuSeS" quote was always my favorite, and I was happy to see that TBC actually considered it one of their favorites too.
Just got the joke that the reason Strong Bad is cartwheeling for a mile is because then The Cheat doesn't have to animate a walk cycle for him
But he used all that time he saved up not animating the walk cycle to bring to life that brilliant kicking Homestar moment.
BluishGreenPro That never actually occurred to me because it was too perfect of a parody of Strong Bad's narcissism :P
He did do a walk cycle for the poopsmith. It's... pretty bad.
WOW
@@Lyubimov89 And a Cheat parade
"I'm not doing one this week.", said Strong Bad for seven consecutive years.
Ummm, we learned he was doing them on kitchen appliances for a while, you know as one does.
Ouch.
that's entirely in character
Oof
This came out in 2003
ive been murmuring "you jumped over some of my buses" to myself for like 15 years now
same.
Dude... same!
summa mah BUSSES
yeah me too sometimes
Glad to know I'm in good company
"you won the mile, how did- what's your secret" is a type of improv humor i really like
The Cheat
@@TheInkPitOxwho’s always messing with Homestar’s plans?
The Cheat
I sometimes say "halfway to go I have to break through this brick wall" whenever I'm halfway done with something.
Glad to know I’m not the only one who does that. It’s an oddly powerful motivator
I love all the cheeky inside jokes in these Cheat-animated episodes from all the bad shortcuts people took from animating in Flash.
*V I R A L*
I remember this one time I was at a summer festival, and the band played "Here I Go Again On My Own", and all I could think about was "Some of my buses".
One thing I realized is that with "Here I Go Again On My Own" he was referencing Strong Bad's tendency to reference glam metal.
This comment made my morning better!
This is one I've been able to recite on cue since 2005.
TV show featuring the cheat in a trans-am.
I would watch that show
He’s probably get what
0-60 gold trophies in 0.5 seconds
I literally bought a Trans Am yesterday and this is the first thing I thought of when I sat behind the wheel. I swear to god.
@@acemarvel1564 3/5 of a trophy in 10 seconds
Now I remember why my wife and I sometimes call each other Jimmy Jimmy.
Haha, I call my wife B-han, also from this cartoon!
I forgot how glorious the original Powered by the Cheat is.
For whatever reason, that horrifying Marzipan impression never fails to crack me up
Featuring really gross teeth
My favorite "Powered by the Cheat" toon of all time most likely. It's still adorable as shit. It's kind of like drawing a picture of your dad because you think he's cool.
Well he is The Cheat's dadbysitter.
This one takes me back so hard. My older sister and I used to just lean towards each other and whisper “some of my buses”
People who never tried to learn Flash animation in the late 90s/early 2000s do not understand how hilarious this is.
i learned flash animation during the 2020s and this is incredibly accurate to how all of them looked
For the last 15 years, my friends and I have been saying “It’ll be the grand... Marshall” to every event we go to.
How come the other variations of Coach Z can talk better than he himself?
Cause hes out there every day living his worst life
Out of all the amazing parts of this email, my favorite is still the voiced keyboard noises!
I still say "Ready and one and set and go" to this day. :)
MISTB0RN I'm sure.
Half way to go, I have to break through this brick wall!
I say that sometimes when I am halfway through something
HI
Hey Strong Bad, you jumped over some of my buses!
*NEW RECORD!*
19 BUSSES
Keep it up, Strong Bad! Pick up the pace!
Thanks for cheering me on!
I remember Newgrounds being flooded with crudely animated cartoons like the Cheat’s stuff.
For years, I thought "here I go again on my own" was like "look ma, no hands." Like he's showing off that he can cartwheel and fly.
I didn't realize til today that it's a White Snake reference. -_-
Holy crap, I never realized that 1:03 was a Whitesnake reference until now!
Neither did I lmao
Same

Abbreviating "also" as "a-so" might be one of my favorite jokes ever.
The Cheat is one multi-talented little yellow guy. Gotta give him props for that.
he only accepts props in the form of trophies and pizzas.
"Thanks, for cheering me on." and "How did what's your secret" have entered my vocabulary solely because of this email. I also sometimes say "So yes, Jimmy-Jimmy..."
Kick it out, Behan!
The parade music still kills me
0:54 - 0:58 I love that joke with the bad layering of the text and floppy disk.
And I pretend that it's made of money...

now you're doing a hip hop dance on my head!
Wow after all these years I just realized he made a reference to that song... "Here I go again on my own" idk the name of it, but that's probably the name of it
Here I Go Again by Whitesnake
"And I pretend that it's made of money..."
That's been stuck in my head since 2003 when I was 9 years old
1:08 I just realized they parodied Fat Albert's voice and the junkyard where he hangs out
1:13 The Powered by The Cheat Marzipan's voice strongly resembles Carl Wheezer from Jimmy Neutron.
i like how The Cheat animated Strong Bad's mouth using transititonal morphing cause he doesn't actually know how SB's flesh-tangle works.
When I was a kid I would recite this entire email so incessantly that I'm amazed my parents are relatively sane. My friends and I would even do it together.
Good times.
The Poopsmith with the broom is a reference to Peabody's Improbable History
I'd love to see the Cheat's Trans Am.
You jumped over some of my buses!
+THERAZORKILLE Productions A new record!
*19 Buses!*
This might be the most quotable thing they've done. "Thanks for cheering me on!"
He can be the Grand! Marshall!
I like your avatar mate

SUMMA MAH BUSES!

Hey, Strong Bad, you jumped over summa mah buses!
*A NEW RECORD!!*
*19 BUSES!!*
Hey StrongBad, you jumped over some of my buses!!!
19 - world record x-)
Does the cheat do the voices in his cartoons? If so, how does he do them? Is he saying meh all the time to throw us off
Audio processing software.
The Brothers Chap say that he has a second voice box that speaks English, but it's more of a joke.
No, it is Mike Chapman, who does terrible voices.
Like regressive politics, or anthropogenic climate change claims, you're just supposed to accept it without question... otherwise it ruins the facade.
He does the voices the same way Strong Bad types with boxing gloves.
U jumped over somma mah buses.
*NEW RECORD!! 19 BUSES!!*
I woke up this morning watching a TV show featuring The Cheat in a Trans Am. I think it was called Cheat Rider.

Once again, your visual style just looks thrown together. It looks like you don't care.
Guy drops a couple of JPEGs in his cartoon and thinks he's like, the guy who draws The Lockhorns or something. Now that guy knows funny!
There’s not a line from this email that I don’t quote at least once a week
i can do it. i will do it 9 times
I remain incapable of saying "here I go" without following up with "here I go again, on my own!"
Genuinely the most underrated sbemail of all time I think
This was the newest email back when I first went to the site! Something like October, 2003.......
randman21 cool story bro
typoded thanks! That phrase is also from 2003.
randman21 cool
Sounds like the Shockmaster did the voice over.
this was the best one
I love how "also" is abbreviated to "a-so". I always crack up seeing it on the screen.
The cheat might be the most adorable animator to ever live. i want nothing about his style to change
THE BEST ANIME EVER
This is not anime.
@@TheInkPitOx it's a reference to a meme...a very dated, played out meme at that.
@@s.b.3867 I know now and I agree
stinkoman?
I really love the sheer unnatural cadence of "He can be the Grand! ...Marshall!!"
I CAN RIDE I CAN DO CARTWHEELS FOR A MILE
The typing noises on his flash. "checka-checka-checka"
Filled out a captcha asking to identify busses. Now all I can think of is this video
"kick it out, bee han"
"ticket out, b ham"
I have no clue...
I love The Cheat's Gucci Parachute! Lookin' grood!
All these years later, I think I'm beginning to realize that the cheat's animation style is meant to be based off of Mario Paint.
TV-SHOW FEATURING THE CHEAT IN A TRANSAM.
Here I go.
Here I go again on my own!
Eeemaaail. Ooh ahh email ooh. Ahh
This video deserves a trophy.
Man, The Cheat is SO GREAT! You guys remember how GREAT The Cheat is? Man, SO GREAT!
I'd love to hear a full version of the "And I pretend that it's made of money" song.
SOME OF MY BUSES
This is an in-joke cache
That Gucci parachute tho!! 😂 (Anyone else here in 2019? 👍)
2020 bro, never noticed that back in the day!
Fun fact for those unaware, Mike does almost every voice for the H⭐️R, but his brother Matt (who mostly animates all of the toons) does the voices for the powered by the cheat toons
I think you got it backwards
The 'I Love Cooties' sign is the best.
Dang, it's been 20 years since I've seen this......
Mr. StrongBad you runned the mile! How did - what's your secret?!
The way the "crowd" cheers after he jumps over somma my busses always cracks me up.
I always wondered, did the people who wrote in for the specific episode also get the same email he typed out back too? LOL!
This one is my all time favorite Strong Bad Email.
Same here!!
this is my favorite sbemail i love the powered by the cheat animations
The parade music is one of my favorite things ever.
This has to be...the coolest cartoon I've ever seen...
I never noticed the busses say Skol on them which is a nice touch because the email came from Minnesota. I've never heard of The Lodge though, pretty sure that isn't a city here.
SUMMA MAH BUZSEZ!

Kick it out, B-Han.
1:10 Some of my buses!
oh my teen years! This was and is the best thing EVER!!

Is it just me or does this Bubs impression sound like Fat Albert?
"Hey hey hey, I got shit ta sell... uh, ay. That rhymes, right?"
They don't say the s-word.
He's based on Red Foxx
It's not just you. One of TBC actually said in some interview somewhere that he "sounds like he's Fat Albert, like he's 800 pounds" or something like that. That "jumped ovah summa mah BuSeS" quote was always my favorite, and I was happy to see that TBC actually considered it one of their favorites too.
i can't wait to see the C. in a tv show featuring him in a trans-am!!!
