Strong Bad Email #124 - Secret Recipes

SB tricks people into eating gross stuff. The Cheat gets a haircut. What's not to love?

[Blockistium]

nothing describes HR and SB's relationship quite like Strong Bad, exasperatedly saying, "It's like... even when we win, he wins."

"How could I refuse? I can't afford the money-cost variety." I love that Coach Z is generally cheerful despite his substantial life challenges.

Coach Z not knowing what a basketball is is one of my favorite character bits

[kezisthename]

"I can't afford the money-cost variety" gets more and more real each year

Caleb, are you binge-watching every single episode of Strong Bad Email?

I am now.

"Plain Couth" is opening for "She Likes Cloth" this summer

The line "It's like even when we win...he wins..." in the context of them making Homstar eat his own prank food is really great

One of the funnier sbemails.

Also, managed to see the floppy disk being thrown labeled "YOU JERK."

[KyleTheLandon]

homestar eating a pimecone continues to be one of the funniest things ever, of all the times

[FlameAdder]

"Homestar definitely does not have a Stupid Uncle Egg" is funnier than it should be. PS. I would legit watch an entire Caleb Rentpayer cartoon.

“Why are you getting high and watching Homestar Runner cartoons instead of getting therapy?”

I can’t afford the money cost variety!

[THiNGYBOBinc]

Oh! Sweet mercy! [continues eating] This is awful! [continues eating]

[sentrysapper]

Homestar ate a pimecone.

Homestar was Mr. Poofers all along!

"Man, what IS this thing? *bounce* A bounce thing?!" ~ Coach Z
I don't know why, but this was hilarious back then and remains so to this day.

[tastyloaf]

-- "Not a Pimecone."
-- "Well, he's got _that_ right!"


That made me crack up all over my body.

I actually did Strong Bad's "White Chocolate in Deodorant Container" prank at school for April Fools Day in 2005. :D


I had some great laughs, including from when someone who was less-than-nice was disgusted and ran away from me when I took a bite out of it in the hallway. :P (Everyone in the hallway was cracking up. XD)

Peter Griffin being told to eat a pinecone by his father-in-law while complaining about its texture: cringe

Homestar being duped to eat a pinecone and not be disgusted in the slightest as a prank backfire and having Strong Bad note it as an empty victory: comedy gold.

"Man what is this thing? A bounce thing?" For some reason this cracked me up.
