One day he was in a meeting at work and forgot to turn the sound down on his phone... yeah, I'm sure you see where this is headed. 😆 He was so embarrassed when "TROGDOR!!!!" started screaming and everyone in the meeting stopped to look at him. 🤦♀️
"First, draw an S for snake. Or... dragon. Whatever." The year is 2020. It's been a rough one, but this is still funny. Makes me nostalgic now. I was just a kid growing up with these. Just turned 30. Wish I could go back to those times... Thanks for everything bros Chaps.
2 guys, and the beauty of it was that they were slightly _less_ kid-friendly than anything on television at the time. Homestar Runner was children's entertainment that took its audience seriously, and that gave it an edge that nothing else had.
@@redpup112 were you born yesterday? anime has been incredibly popular since the late 70s, my parents literally know more anime than cartoons. In fact if anything, anime is less popular than it was 20 years ago, more on par with what it was in the 80s
@@theguy8412 I didn't know that youtube made Control + Enter a "send reply" button, so if you're wondering why you got two notifications for one reply, that's why. Anyways, belittling your peers is never, ever a good idea. Anime has been incredibly popular in Japan for a really, really long time. This doesn't mean that a large amount of anime was commonly adapted for western audiences until significantly later, so it didn't really even have much of a chance until the late 80's, early 90's. That said, I would love to hear what 70's anime your parents know about. Could be interesting to watch. I think there was an early 80's Golgo-13 movie that was released in other territories, but that's all that's coming to my mind right now.
Yep this, original star wars gangsta rap, h'okay end of the world, you kicked my dog prank call... early 00s pre-youtube internet really pulled the punches sometimes
It's been about 17 years and I finally understood the lyric was thatched roof cottages. That last bit makes so much more sense, and my stupid childish sense of wonder is now gone...
@@fatcerberus Makes more sense than when I was 5, thinking "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" had something about _"Concrete Cheese"_ in it. Or when I thought Argent's "Hold Your Head Up" was "Blow your head up, BLOW!" _and I sang it that way as a 4 year old._
This brings back so many memories, the internet was a very different place. All these kids will never know about the fun of finding the easter egg in each of these flash animations back in the day ( almost every animation they did had a little secret to find )
Some of the easter eggs were as tiny as a pixel or two, you really had to look for some of them. Some of the easter eggs were longer than the original video. Just run the mouse back and forth forever, you'll find something. Sometimes if you waited long enough, something would randomly come up. I miss this flash site, and I really hope there is more like this out there
Yeah, the tab key was where it's at. The Homsar clip in here was actually an easter egg when you pressed one of the letters in Strong Mad's "DAGRON" carving.
I'm in the same boat, minus two to four years. I know I first saw it with my older brother, likely when I was in the second or third grade based on what I recall being around me then, which included the years 2000-2002. It likely predates those years, making it at least 12, possibly around 15 years old.
"Wait a minute, I think I need to start over. Thing doesn't look... _natural_" Probably my favorite line in an altogether hilarious episode! Excellent word choice and phrasing.
Can't believe it's been twenty years since this legendary video came out. I used to watch on repeat one the website all the time. Such fond memories. Long live Homestarrunner, Long live Strong Bad. LONG LIVE TROGDOR!
So here's a story: one time, in my old elementary school, we were talking about I forgot, and then, the teacher asked, "does anyone know homestar runner?" I was the only one that raised my hand, so the teacher played this sbemail, in front of the whole class, the trogdor song and all. That was the coolest thing my teacher has done. I miss that teacher... (I'm in middle school now)
In my Early American Colonialism class in university, the prof would always start the class with an episode or two of Strong Bad. That was 17 years ago.
Such a classic, Whoever does homestar runner has a LOT of talent, the ability to make comedy without cursing and "Adult" themes is hard to do. Please keep making videos mr.homestar runner dude, and thank you for all the years of content.
3:23 "And the dragon comes in the NIIIiiiiIIIiiiiIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIIiiiIIGGHH- {Strong Bad falls out of his chair.} STRONG BAD: Augh... Oh yeah! {Strong Bad sticks up his arm up from the bottom of the screen and lights the BMW lighter as people do at rock concerts. The Paper comes down. After a short time, the lighter singes The Paper.}
I'm back here after watching a video from T900. (For those who don't know, he is the biggest Age of Empires 2 content creator) They just made an entire map with Trogdor's figure in it. Basically, his entire body is made of trees, 2 relics in his eyes, his teeth are stones and both the fire and the beefy arm are golds.
@@HurraWubba because you weren't born in the 90's, and you didn't have a cool sibling to show you this. Better late then never I guess, but don't forget to pay respects to the elders lol You guys should also check out the "Japanese Cartoons" episode.
I was a manager at Office Depot for about 5 years. Our store was VERY MUCH "by the book", no tom foolery at all. I secretly added a Trogdor sketch to the "important info board" in the employee training room where the district manager would sit once a week and do conference zooms. I left there 3 years ago and I checked last week and it was still there.... TROGDOR!!!!
my dad showed me and my fam this video when we were kids. a year or two later we bought guitar hero 2 and, one night, he woke us up to show us the trogdor bonus song he unlocked. magical moment
I remember about 15/20 years ago, I was browsing through a book titled something like "200 Most Useless Sites on the Internet" or something. They had an entry for Homestar Runner and I was very confused about their horrible judgement.
I kinda wish I was around for this era of the internet. I mean, there are upsides to how it is now for sure, but Trogdor the Burninator is a heccin jam
I miss THIS internet. The one that exists now is just too much.

Bless them for this. This song has been a constant memory for at 20ish years in my head. It still cracks me up with the animation for the trogdor song

Imagine a world without the trogdor theme
I thought it did, or was after it or something. Wasn't this on shockwave?

And on this day, January the 13th, 20 years ago. A legend was born.
HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY, TROGDOR!!! Here's to 20 more years of BURNINATION.
Just showed this to my 6 year old for the first time. He went berserk and tried drawing him immediately
I did the same thing when my dad showed me when I was like 8!
Is THIS the origin of TrogDor?? Awesome! SO happy that someone turned me on to this!
D A G R O N
You just...keep doin' your thing, man.
Thanks T90... now this will never go away from my brain.
So great that I'm still able to share the greatness of Trogdor and Strongbad with people who weren't even born 20 years ago when we saw this in flash.
My cat Trogdor just turned 16!
Such a classic, Whoever does homestar runner has a LOT of talent, the ability to make comedy without cursing and "Adult" themes is hard to do. Please keep making videos mr.homestar runner dude, and thank you for all the years of content.
"... comedy without cursing and "Adult" themes"... says 'Sir Dildor' haha
@@ryannfrad7089 Clever XD
Yeah, the Brothers Chaps are great.
3 years later... Check out Yo Gabba Gabba and 2 More Eggs it’s professionally where they went

"And the dragon comes in the NIIIiiiiIIIiiiiIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIIiiiIIGGHH-
{Strong Bad falls out of his chair.}
STRONG BAD: Augh... Oh yeah!
{Strong Bad sticks up his arm up from the bottom of the screen and lights the BMW lighter as people do at rock concerts. The Paper comes down. After a short time, the lighter singes The Paper.}
I sure am studying for finals
I still remember having to break into the ATM on their website to download this song. What a fantastic time in the internet's history
I'm back here after watching a video from T900. (For those who don't know, he is the biggest Age of Empires 2 content creator)
They just made an entire map with Trogdor's figure in it.
Basically, his entire body is made of trees, 2 relics in his eyes, his teeth are stones and both the fire and the beefy arm are golds.
Happy 20 years of Trogdor!!! Can't believe it's been that long!
Linus : nobody gets it anymore (referring to trogdor)
Me : I SHALL KNOW THIS RIGHT NOW
I'm here for the same reason, how did we not know this existed?!
@@HurraWubba because you weren't born in the 90's, and you didn't have a cool sibling to show you this.
Better late then never I guess, but don't forget to pay respects to the elders lol
You guys should also check out the "Japanese Cartoons" episode.
@@HurraWubba clearly never played guitar hero....like 2 maybe. One of them has the Trogdor song in it
...who's Linus?
@@piderman13 Linus tech tips
Trogdor.
*takes a swig of whiskey*
I haven't heard that name in ages.
I was a manager at Office Depot for about 5 years. Our store was VERY MUCH "by the book", no tom foolery at all. I secretly added a Trogdor sketch to the "important info board" in the employee training room where the district manager would sit once a week and do conference zooms. I left there 3 years ago and I checked last week and it was still there.... TROGDOR!!!!
I love the idea of people discovering this video for the first time. A childhood classic!
I named my dog Trogdor.
You have one awesome dog!
I did that too! I'm glad you made the greatest of decisions.
Did he burninate the countryside?
Does he come in the NIIIIIIIIIIIIGHTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!?
Dogdor.
Teacher played this in history to represent some dude controlling the government.., A+ mr history teacher
My dad showed this to me when I was a kid. Now im 18. I can finally get a Trogdor tattoo
This single episode changed the world for the better. Everyone I know between the ages of 30 to late 40s knows Trogdor & sings his praises!
Who's here after Seattle revealed their NHL team and logo
The S is for sucks.
'Let's put one of those beefy arms on him for good measure.'
Aww man. I was hoping for the Seattle Fightin' Trogdors. #FloJoInATuxedo
OMG.. I just did an image search for "Seattle NHL Trogdor" and it did not disappoint
The city that gave us CHOP/CHAZ isn't worthy of Trogdor. They wouldn't know majesty if it bit them in the face. He needs to go burninate that city.
“Burnanating the peasants.”😂 Funny in early 2000’s, funny in 2019.
Happy 20th anniversary to this gem.
my dad showed me and my fam this video when we were kids. a year or two later we bought guitar hero 2 and, one night, he woke us up to show us the trogdor bonus song he unlocked. magical moment
I remember about 15/20 years ago, I was browsing through a book titled something like "200 Most Useless Sites on the Internet" or something. They had an entry for Homestar Runner and I was very confused about their horrible judgement.
They misspelled "useful" I guess!
And yet by comparison no one else has ever heard of that book. Pretty funny irony, there.
I said consummate V's, consummate!
jeez, guy wouldn't know perfection if it hit him in the face.
That happened once!
Love knowing that this is unquestionably the most popular sbemail
Welcome back. And if you're new, you're witnessing internet history.

I have never pronounced "dragon" properly since I saw this cartoon.
DAGRON!! LOL I say it that way, too, sometimes.
lol same.
Me neither. And my husband, who sadly was deprived of Homestar Runner, never gets it
I kinda wish I was around for this era of the internet. I mean, there are upsides to how it is now for sure, but Trogdor the Burninator is a heccin jam
I recently had a childhood friend pass away from covid 😢 this video is something he showed me years ago and so every time I see this I think of him!
This one will always be my all time favorite SB mails ever.
161 people wouldn't know if majesty came up and bit them in the face.
That happened once.
