I just acquired a new Flash cartoon addiction: Homestar Runner’s cyber-villain Strong Bad.
It could happen to you–one minute you’re watching him draw a dragon–the next, you’re terrorizing helpless peasants with Trogdor the Burninator.
You want to know how addictive Strong Bad is? You’ll even want to watch him clean out his inbox.

Hey, that was funny! Does he do housework, too?

After reading far too many Strongbad e-mails in my day, my heart just goes out to The Cheat…

My favorite has to be the English paper one (http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail64.html).

Gosh, I didn’t know you were a yellow dart, Becky–I thought you were (drumroll) an English professor. Becky, Yule, Elaine, I’m so glad you share my addiction! Come on, is this just an XX chromosome thing? Aren’t there some guys out there who secretly identify with Strong Bad?

I think Chace thinks he is StrongBad sometimes…

BTW, let me acknowledge Zoe, Chace, Mickey, Mira, Colin–all of whom can seamlessly channel StrongBad. Their magnificent floor show at Cheng Sho’s restaurant on Saturday inspired me to discover and then to blog him.

Colin’s a strong bad fan, and the proud bearer of a Y chromosome.
I am rather proud of my StrongBad channeling ability, but I think it comes more naturally to me to channel Marshie (capital M and then arshie: http://homestarrunner.com/marshie.html). Made from the best stuff!

Mmmmmm–I’m fluffity, I’m puffity. Yes, I could definitely go for that. Can I be Marshie 2?
