So the basic events as far as I can reconstruct them are: - Strong Bad writes a love letter to 'Carla' Lewis, scrubs it off causing a rip. - Coach Z pukes in the rip. - Strongbad opens it and unleashes the stench or just discovers the stench. - Couch gets patched. - Homestar does... Homestar things.
The sheer level of aggravation in Strongbad's tone when he goes "Homestar, SHUT. UP...." is so authentic sounding, its so hard to believe sometimes this man is literally just in a booth talking to himself and not somebody else to bounce off of most of the time.
Dude, I don't know how dumb you are, but it's obvious who that guy is. There are only so many people in Free Country USA, and if we narrow it down, it's easy to figure out. From the outline, the guy has a stupid hat on. So whoever wears a stupid hat in an attempt to be cool is the person. The voice was digitally altered to be lower, so as to hid their identity, which means it was much higher. From the outline, the guy is thinner, possibly athletic type. And adding in a lower hygiene standard for puking in a couch instead of something else, it only leaves one person. That's right, Homestar Runner! He's a thin, athletic, higher voice guy who wears a stupid hat. Plus, he tried to derail the conversation by talking about Teddy Grahams. He's clearly the guy who puked in the couch.
@@JoeManza Dude, that's stupid. Coach Z doesn't puke in couches, he clearly pukes his pants. Remember when Strong Bad gave him "Ice Cream" made of sour cream and The Cheat fur? Puked his pants. Not in a couch.
I love the little details i notice when I watch this for like the 6th time. The poop smith's "Has Matt?" (Hazmat) suit, and the way that the audio for strong bads keyboard tapping is actually synced up EG when he's typing "hose me hose me hose me down", the distinct 'clack' of the space bar accurately plays on the frames he would be pressing the space bar if typing that. Amazing attention to detail, it really is very good work.
2:39 I just realized the ridiculousness of the idea that Strong Bad remembered that specific gumbo but has no idea who else ate it. Did he have a potluck? Or does he just regularly feed large groups at his house??
Maybe he remembers that specific gumbo because he only made it once, and then remembered how many people in Free Country he hates. So he swore to never invite them all over to his house for food ever again.
@@TheInkPitOx Yes and No. Homestar should have his own mini series for the website and No because he's ripping off Strong Bad's SBemails. I Always thought that was his goal after Email Thunder but it didn't last that long.
I've picked up so many mannerisms from these cartoons I forgot that I sometimes forget they originated here. The way homestar says oh, oh, OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH is a small one I just remembered.
You know, I always believed Strong Brad’s version because it’s the only story he’s ever told that makes him seem less than incredibly impressive. Most of his tales are ridiculously obvious lies about how cool and popular he is, but in this one he admits that he doesn’t really have Aztec gold and relates an embarrassing story of him getting sprayed down by a hazmat team.
I think they're all true. SB wrote the message, but cut it off of the couch later when he found out Carl Lewis was a guy, then Coach Z puked in it and patched it up somehow, then later still SB cut open the patched up spot and covered it with duct tape to seal away the stonk.
@@jessicafrost7579 Yeah, there's a flaw in Strong Bad's story. How could the couch have stench inside it before it had a rip? Is he implying that the stench was there when it was new?
@@timwoods2852 Incidentally, I am gonna work on a new Digimon series and at least one episode will have a Rashomon style episode where different Digidestined tell their sides of a story!
Oh man, 2/3 of this sbemail has stayed perfectly intact in my memory since I watched it as a kid. "I'm sorry for what I done" would just randomly pop into my head every now and then.
I personally theorize that all the stories are true! First Li'l Strong Bad tore up the couch to hide any evidence he could be anything but heterosexual, then Coach Z puked in the hole and covered it up, then Strong Bad opened the hole and unleashed the Stench of Biblical Proportions from the puked-up gumbo. It all adds up! ...Or not.
I don’t think it’s digitally altered though... i pitched it up on audacity and that didn’t sound like Z at all. That leads me to believe that it was naturally altered.
Strong Bad wasn't that far off, he confused Carl Lewis with CAROL Lewis, and I ain't talking about the Alice in Wonderland author, Carl Lewis did have a sister named Carol who WAS a runner just like her brother!
For some reason the line "I was in Strong Bad's basement spittin' teddy grahms all over the place" fucking killed me, it has been a while since I laughed that hard
Strong Bad accidentally rips the couch after attempting to erase any evidence of his love for "Carla" Lewis. An unknown citizen pukes in the rip after having gumbo with "Doo doo meat" in it. Strong Bad unleashes the stench of biblical proportions. Couch gets patched. Homestar spits teddy grahams everywhere in an unrelated set of events.
All these people in the comments talking about how "This is the next Rashomon" have no idea what they're talking about! This is nothing like Rashomon! At least, it's nothing like how I remember it!
So to piece it together, my guess is that strong bad graffitis the couch, rips it open when he found out Carl lewis was a man, then coach Z puked in it and the stench occurred due to that,(strong bass memory being incorrect as to when/why he cut it), then someone patched it up due to the stench, possibly the cheat,near the time when home star was spitting Teddy grahams...
Didn't Strong Bad tell Strong Mad or someone that they have "that recessed lighting?" (Before fleeing at the end of some email) Well then what's that at 1:56?
So the basic events as far as I can reconstruct them are:
- Strong Bad writes a love letter to 'Carla' Lewis, scrubs it off causing a rip.
- Coach Z pukes in the rip.
- Strongbad opens it and unleashes the stench or just discovers the stench.
- Couch gets patched.
- Homestar does... Homestar things.

To this day I still say "Oh, Oh, Ooooooooh" just like Homestar.
The phrase "doo-doo meat" kept haunting my brain and making me laugh so I gave the email a rewatch.

It all adds up! ...Or not.
and then homestar sat on the coach and spat teddy grahms around in an unrelated set of circumstances.
And during the easter egg, Strong Bad typed out:
"Make The Cheat's head explode.exe"
I remember seeing that on the Wiki
What the heck makes you think it was Coach Z? Awfully presumptuous of you...
What about Homestar's Teddy Grahams?
I like coach Z’s disguise voice

That was Coach Z??

That one almost made me puke my pants.
Please don't elaborate on that case.

Reminds me of when you type something unusual into the speech bar in fallout, and the NPC actually has a suitable reply.
This reboot of Rashomon is cooking up nice and tasty.
I always laugh at the way the mysterious deep-voiced man says "I had to PUUUUKE!"
"PWYOOK!"
Same here
I've always wondered if the stench of Biblical proportions was caused by Coach Z's puke.
The Cheat's head exploding would make a perfect "mind blown" gif.

Qthedude16 puh-too
It is one of the funniest Homestar moments ever.
All these years later, and we still don't know: has Matt?
Some people have rigged the enemy base with explosives. Matt has.
My theory is that Strong Mad accidentally ripped one part of the couch, and Strong Sad covered it up with duct tape minutes later.
This was the one. This was the first sbemail I ever saw. It took like 5 minutes to load, and I almost didn't watch it. But I did. And - here we are.
I remember watching this email like, 12 times when it came out on the H*R site.
IF I EVER FIND OUT WHO THAT GUY IS...
It's Coach Z, but it's your own fault for being a lousy cook, Strong Bad.
They had to call in a hazmat team just to hose me hose me hose me down!
These are some These are some These are some Glaaaaade Plug-ins, TomTom.

doo-doo meat... that's comedy.
where could homestar’s story have possibly been going
It's Homestar, it already went everywhere it could go.
Are you gonna re upload the cartoons uploaded before the revival to include the Easter Eggs?
Still have no idea how there is a drop ceiling in Strong Bad's basement.
Coach Z’s is the true story.
Coach Z wasn't in this one - just some weird guy with a digitally altered voice.
Carla Lewis is so stunning and brave.
I used to love that on the sbemail dvds, Homestar would come out and patooie teddy grahams all over the fbi warning
Is there a reason why sbmail always references Mountain Dew? I love it cause it’s funny but wondering if there’s a backstory to it
So not only can SB type with boxing gloves on but he can do the same amount of typing with just one hand?
