5	->'''Strong Bad:''' (''singing, accidentally typing in "stongbad_email.exe"'') Watch me do a little bit of email, and I'll watch you do a little bit of- (''the words "File not found" appear onscreen'') Oop! That's never happened before. (''beat. starts singing again, this time typing the email command correctly'') Watch me do a little bit of email, and I'll watch you do a little bit of- (''brings up the email'') Oop! That's never happened befo- oh wait, it's an email. That ''has'' happened before. And quite a few times if I remember correctly.

7	After his brief difficulty trying to run "stongbad_email.exe" instead of "strongbad_email.exe", Strong Bad manages to bring up an e-mail from Sam, who wants him to respond to said e-mail in the "Funniest. Way. Ever". Strong Bad decides to oblige by taping a blank diskette to his head and talking in gibberish "like the crazy squeaky guy".
8
9	->'''Strong Bad:''' LEEKO LEEKO LEEKO! I'm a squeaky guy! I got squeaky pants! Come check out my squeaky pants dance!
10
11	Strong Bad then proceeds to jump around like an idiot, spilling ketchup all over the Compy, then moves on to bouncing around on his head for a bit then doing a crazy jerky dance in front of Strong Sad.
12
13	->'''Strong Sad:''' Quit that! You're freakin' me out! Did you take some of my pills again?
14
15	Meanwhile, Bubs and The Cheat are enjoying some fries with "computer catsup" (which according to Bubs is "better than the regular kind. Or that purple kind!") when Strong Bad decides it's time to wind things down. He shoos Bubs away (after a brief debate on the existence of ketchup bombs) and orders The Cheat to get something to help clean up the mess.
16
17	->'''Strong Bad:''' Well, aren't you gonna go get your 409 or Awesome Sauce or whatever you're gonna clean this up with? Maybe a moist sham-oyce?
18	----
19	!!Tropes:
20	* CaptainObvious: When Strong Bad gets the file name of his email program right, he remarks "That's never happened befo... oh wait, it's an email. That ''has'' happened before. And quite a few times, if I remember correctly."
21	* EveryoneHasStandards: As mentioned below, even ''Homestar'' is weirded out by Strong Bad's attempt to be funny.
22	* FunnyBackgroundEvent: As Strong Bad stomps on the Compy's keyboard, the words "WOAH!! I CAN TYPE WITH ONE FOOT" appear on the screen.
23	* HammerSpace: The bottle of ketchup falls from out of nowhere.
24	* OhNoNotAgain: Strong Sad initially attributes Strong Bad's erratic behavior to him "[[IntoxicationEnsues taking some of my pills again]]".
25	* PunctuatedForEmphasis: Strong Bad reads the phrase "Funniest. Way. Ever." in this way.
26	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Homestar Runner, the site's resident CloudCuckooLander, is unnerved by Strong Bad's erratic state of mind. A hard-to-find easter egg has him coming in while Strong Bad is bouncing around on his head and going "pont-REER!" to make the following remark:
27	-->'''Homestar:''' Oh, uh... Hi, Strong Bad. I was just stopping by to do something funny, but, um... I can see you don't need my help this week.
28	* ShoutOut: Bubs calling the computer ketchup better than the "purple kind" is a reference to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_Tomato_Ketchup#EZ_Squirt_colored_ketchup Heinz EZ Squirt colored ketchup,]] which was still being sold when this email went up.
29	* TrickBomb: Bubs wonders if the mess in the computer room was caused by the detonation of "some type of ketchup bomb".
30	-->'''Strong Bad:''' Hey man, are ketchup bombs real?\
31	'''Bubs:''' Not yet!
32	* WordSaladHumor: Strong Bad's attempt at answering Sam's e-mail in the funniest way ever.
33	-->'''Strong Bad:''' Pongity pongity pongity pongity pongity pongity pongity pongity pongity pongity pongity pongity! Aunt Ruthie, Aunt Ruthie, there's ketchup on the computer!
34	* YouSayTomato: Strong Bad mispronounces "chamois" so that it sorta rhymes with "moist".
35	----
36	->'''Strong Bad:''' (''dips a french fry into some computer ketchup, then eats it'') Ooh! This computer ketchup ''is'' pretty good! Needs more RAM, though. Maybe a couple of... megachips.
