rjgentry 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2005 So, I just wanted to see what everyone else thought about Homestar Runner. The site is just hilarious, but they've definately been slacking on adding new content lately. I mean, the guys say that the sell merch and do this for a living now, but they just aren't keeping it up. I could definately understand there being so much lag time if they were college students, but since they're doing it for a living, i'd think it would be a bigger priority for them to get stuff up and stay as edgy as possible with what they've got.so what do you think? if you know the site, what's your opinion and if you don't, take a look. i'm sure to any newbies to the site it'll be a riot, but i just wanted some opinions and to get started on my posting!Ray J Gentry IV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ninjamunky 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2005 I like the "First Time" one and I also took a few of my other favorites out of my temp files. I'll get the numbes later if I become "unlazy" by that time :(Otherwise, I think it's frickin' hilarious. "I'm a long pants man Strong Bad, I wear long pants, long pants, long pants, long pants!!"

LOL Â Ray J Gentry IV <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They probably just do this on the side. Notice they don't have ads. Therefore they probably put up money for this as a hobby sort of. Anyway, yeah, it's really really good for self-taught. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjgentry 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2005 well, i was looking through their faq section and since they started selling merch i think they went full time... i mean i'm sure they still have other things on the side, but they consider it more than a hobby. so yeah...but i'll check into that again and see if i'm mistaken.

-AlPal- 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2005 Homestar Runner is hilarious! I recommend it to everyone here. Some of the cartoons I think are weird, but most of them are ROFL funny.The 'Children's Book' SB Email is very funny. I'd also recommend 'Kid's Show' where Strong Bad makes his own TV show aimed at little kids, 'Stunt Double' where Strong Bad 'proves' he doesn't use any stunt doubles, and the new one, 'Garbage Sale' where he is suggested to sell all of his stuff. And.... aww heck, just watch them all!- AlPalP.S. The 'Dragon' Email is a classic - don't forget that one! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjgentry 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2005 TROGDOR!!! hahahaha. trogdor is definately awesome! i wish that i had a dragon with a muscle arm growing out of his neck haha. yeah, if you haven't checked out the site, do it and get back to me! i want to see some opinions of people who are new to it. so i guess i'm kinda pulling for the brothers chap on this thread and helping them out hehehe.another site using flash to make (really really) sick twisted cartoons is the happy tree friends. that's messed up stuff right there! well, i'm gonna make a few posts and head to bed. catch you all later!

Doveshire Designs 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2007 Homestar is hilarious I was introduced to it a few years ago and havent stop laughing at it since. I know what you mean about them rarely adding new content to it that can be stressful when your looking for a good laugh or two and have grown tired of looking at th e same stuff.
