Note: if you aren’t familiar with Homestar Runner, see [here](http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail36.html), [here](http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail58.html), [here](http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail64.html), and [here](http://www.homestarrunner.com/characters2.html) first.

If you already know the drill, prepare to [laugh your ass off](http://www.homestarrunner.com/filmstyle_trogdor.html).

I swear, these guys slay me. I think this site is one of the most consistently funny thing on the Web.

The latest [Strong Bad e-mail](http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail124.html) is pretty good too.

I love the site too…it’s easily my favorite clean humor haunt. I’m always ticked when Strong Bad neglects his email for a week. I actually have a Strong Badia keychain, although it was given to, not bought by, me.

The Peasant’s Quest trailer is great (as is the game, by the way). However, a lot of the humor requires or at least is benefited by a knowledge of past Homestar cartoons. Going in cold might be tough. The best idea might just be to sit down and watch everything on the site when you have a few hours to spare. That’d be some jorb.

The Peasant’s Quest trailer makes a lot more sense if you’ve played the game, which was an inspired and loving tribute, down to some amazing detail, to the computer graphical adventures of the 80s.

I keep trying, but I keep failing to get it. It sure doesn’t work for me.

Makes me want to go back and play the game. Unfortunatly, I’m still not sure what to do when I get stuck. I just keep wandering around…

Across the street from my work, yet another little restaurant opened up, advertising its “Pan-Asian Cuisine”.

“Woot.”  
“Woot.”  
“Woot.”
