Strong Bad Email #76 - Sibbie

[@torcoolguy]

"I just about had it with that talking toaster." is a supremely underrated Homestar line.

[@roxygaming5968]

That bestial howl at "I Freakin' Hate Sibbie" debuting is maybe the angriest I've ever heard Strong Bad, before or since.

[@glitchedoom]

He was so mad it awoke the wrestler in him.

[@Monkey832]

[@the-NightStar]

This song, "Song About Sibbie" is no longer available due to a copyright claim made by Strong Bad.

[@the-NightStar]

I hear he's taking The Cheat to court. Though I hear that it's probably going to get settled out of court to the payment of a free dinner at Blubbo's on The Cheat. And I mean literally ON him, not that he's "paying for it." But he's doing that, too. AND serving it ontop of his surprisingly flat and level head.

[@pikminfan6778]

"Clever Dan" and "my focus is all crocussed" became a permanent part of my vocabulary after I first watched this cartoon, many years ago.

[@SarahMaywalt]

For me it was "FORHORDLINGGRADS!" If you say that in public, you get some weird looks, I can tell you.

[@el_zinga]

It's hilarious how much Strong Bad gives this fandom weird phrases to say.

It's not crocussed. It's brokus. My focus is all ... Broke-us. Brokus. Like ... Broken focus.

Was about to post a similar comment. Cool detail considering SB's costume of course. Although it would've been even cooler if he did more stereotypically lucha style moves.

"My focus is all...crocused". I love how little sense Strong Bad makes whenever he speaks. Practically everything he says is gold.

[@jaedaens]

Krokus was a band that was popular for a short time in America in the 80s: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krokus_(band) - probably most popular for their cover of Ballroom Blitz.

[@FriendlyLocalGeek]

The Cheat must have recording devices stashed all over Free Country USA, in case of number one jam emergencies.

[@TheDash456]

Friendly Local Geek Pinkie Pie, how did you get in a Strong Bad email?

[@LamanKnight]

Whoa... I just came to a realization. In the "time capsule" sbemail, it shows that the capsule with Strong Bad's #1 Jam is dug up and eaten by Stinko Man. And in the Stinko Man game, there are capsules like that all over the place, which he uses for recovering health. So... you may be right! Maybe those are all Numba One James recorded by the Cheat, preserved until 20X6.

[@UltimateCarl]

Is this like the only time Strongbad actually busts out some wrestling moves to go with his mask and spandex?

[@FriendlyLocalGeek]

Well, as "yes wrestling" demonstrated, Strong Bad was always more about the gimmicks and showmanship part of pro wrestling rather than the actual wrestling. Though he did bust out some "muscular wrestling moves" in the super-old cartoon "Marshmallow's Last Stand", and in a flashback in the email "lady...ing" that was a self-parody of MLS.
