Sender: Anthony
Strong Bad: (half-heartedly singing) I check, you check, we all check for the... email check... email...
Anthony thinks Strong Sad is dumb and a crappy guy, and wants Strong Bad to deliver the message. Strong Bad does so, but at what turns out to be a bad time for Anthony.
Strong Bad: Hey, stupid! You know some guy named Anthony from South Gate?
Strong Sad: Oh yeah. I was just making him this card (holds up a home-made greeting card), and gonna send him a hundred dolla-
Strong Bad: Well, he says you're dumb, and a crappy guy. (leaves)
Strong Sad: Oh... (tears up the card)

Strong Bad returns to inform Anthony that "as much as I like insulting my stupid kid brother, I'm not your freakin' message service", so next time he should send Strong Sad an email at "depressio@homestarrunner.com"
Tropes
- Logging On To The Fourth Wall: This email has a variation in that it included a link to email Strong Sad. Once, you could email it to get an automated response from Strong Sad. Now you'll only get an error message.
- Irony: At the precise moment that Strong Bad arrives with Anthony's insulting message, Strong Sad is writing a very nice letter to Anthony, and planning to include some money with it.
- Shout-Out: Posters of The Cure's "Boys Don't Cry" and Some Kind of Wonderful are in Strong Sad's room.
Strong Bad: Okay, so until next time... (singing) "Everybody email that guy!" "What guy?" "Me!" "Everybody email that guy!"
