If I told myself that 8 years ago, I'd be watching Homestar runner cartoons on my cell phone, I'd probably be a millionaire because I've discovered time travel.
As someone who got all of his adulthood toys at the dollar store (a single plastic figure of Mrs. Incredible) ... uh. I think its legit but I'm not sure.
Funny thing is I've actually seen one those shady day care places on my commute to work, and it did in fact a a painting of grover with a human nose on the front.

Yeah, though the creators said it was always meant to be a "PG" rated series. Though, nowadays "G," and "PG" just mean the same thing now, at least for movies.
Funnily enough, having imitators for your brand is, in a way, a requirement for luxury brands. So all the unlicensed licensed thing is actually a bit relevant.
is that right? So the stereotype of fake gucci bags sold in the ghetto is actually a feather in gucci's crown? all I can think of is that story that supposedly the simpsons merchandise all used blue-shirt Bart so that they could tell knockoffs at a glance, any _accuracy_ would be a red flag. thing is that's so easily contradicted. If it ever was the policy, it wasn't for long (or was it just Matt's idea that they were free to use or not?) because I recall Bart merchandise in every shirt color for the brief period where you could reliably find simpsons merch in stores.
@@KairuHakubi never heard that Simpsons story, that is peculiar. But yeah, if people want to have something with your name on it, even if they know it's fake, it shows how much value there is in your name. And luxury items' value is almost entirely the brand and the sense of belonging, as you can imagine.
@@KairuHakubi Actually, if I remember, Bart's concept art had him wearing a blue shirt instead of a red shirt, and then they gave those designs to the merchandiser guys before the show started, and then when they changed his shirt from red to blue for the show the merchandisers didn't get the memo. I got this information from a RebelTaxi video I got a while back, I don't know if that guys a credible source, nor have I seen the rest of his content, just the one video.
That unlicensed Cheat is like 4 different ripoffs in one. Pooh Bear - Overall build and honey. Woodstock - Eyes, coloration Biker Mice from Mars - Mouse with antenna (only reference i can think of) Cheat - black splotches

The "disk 4 of 12" videos are kinda like that, in that he's basically narrating what happens in the games. Has the same effect of being really nice even to just listen to.
“I’m a public flasher” “You ain’t got no nudity under there” THIS is why I love this show. Yes I call it a show now. Better then most shows now anyways.
Swagapple 1987 I think Homestar has invisible arms, as he's been seen holding things before. He probably used a bat to hit the pinata, but the glass flew everywhere, impaling his face.
That shady daycare part really hit hard after I found out that for a short period of time, *I* was in one of them. Back when I lived in Utah, I went to this daycare that had bare pastel walls with tiny stickers on them. As I recall, the playground was never filled with kids. All of the toys and books were old and worn-down. The parents were in some secret room where they just talked. It was probably the saddest place I have even been to in my life.
I can't figure out why the gummy gelular pop cracks me up so much. It must be how hesitantly Strong Bad says it, like all the mashed-up words he comes up with.
Haha I feel ya. It's like at the very last second, he realizes he needs the word to be an adjective, so halfway through the word, he turns "gel" into "cellular" 🤣🤣 I literally LOL
“Just as I suspected: Totally legit looking stuff! Where're the human noses? The misspellings? The choking hazards?“ “That's the kinda stuff I usually sell at the concession stand! This is the black market!“ This may be one of my favourite sbemail quote, along with “Hey, Strong Bad, look! You're twice!“
i love this email! it is very good to know that there is a bunch of unlicensed daycares, which is good for dropping off your kids, and leave them there for ever
Strong Bad : Bubs? Coach Z : Yeah, hes the fella that runs the concession stand... Strong Bad : I KNOW WHO HE IS!!! HAHAHAH, aww man that made me LOL hard. :]
I thought the first name of the country, Grunkistan, might've been an obscure Gravity Falls reference given that Matt Chapman was a writer for the show, only to find that this sb-email predated the show by over 2 years; maybe Grunkle Stan is an obscure sb-email reference instead!
Will you keep it down?! I'm busy waiting for some unlicensed unlicensed Strong Bad video game to release! And I'm NOT talkin' pirated copies of SBCG4AP here!
I am ashamed for being ignorant of this for so long! I honestly had NO idea the brothers Chap were still making Homestar stuff! I am now enlightened and delighted.
I honestly think Pom Pom's used pretty much perfectly. There's not too much to his character other than being too cool for every other character and he can't talk normally.
homestar has always been adverse to showing directly explicit stuff so its funny to me that homestar himself is shown on a regular basis covered in bleeding cuts
The only comfort of the Pudding Patch is that, since Senor Cardgage is singing both the call AND response, we can infer he's alone in there.
True, but he raises a good question. Where IS Tomkins?

"I take kids"
Ones like that are all over Puerto Rico. Unlicensed poorly painted Disney characters.

"Where is Tumkins? Where is coleslaw? Here I am!..."

1:37 I like how the human Cardgage is saying “I Take Kids.”
Ok, now I get what everyone else is saying. I never noticed that before.
"I'm a public flasher"
Well... considering these episodes were made in flash and they are open to the public, i guess he is indeed a public flasher.
Yeah, right. He ain't got no nudity under there
I don't think I ever noticed the corpse chalk outline outside the Puddin' Patch until today.
Wow. I never noticed that myself. That's very creepy.
The Puddin' Patch is one of their darkest jokes lmao
The one about hiring children to make macaroni pictures actually got more disturbing after Strong Bad acknowledged how disturbing it was

It's time for Strong Bad to take his rightful place as a Disney Princess.
I still sing Homestar's song at 4:11 any time I encounter broken glass in real life
I sing it at entirely non-glass related occasions too

He probably used a bat to hit the pinata, but the glass flew everywhere, impaling his face.
Of course he has hands, how do you think he gave Strong Bad the bird?
