3 | When Coach Z's ridiculous accent causes him to mispronounce "job" three different ways in a row, the rest of the gang tries to teach him how to say it properly. |
4 | ---- |
5 | !!Tropes |
6 | * CallBack: The cartoon ends with a Coach Z version of the Homestar Talker, a "game" from the site's early days. |
7 | * {{Calvinball}}: The game played at the beginning takes place at a football field. Points are apparently scored by bouncing up and down on Strong Sad or turning around while running. |
8 | * CircleOfShame: Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat have a laugh at Coach Z's expense after his latest failed attempt to learn how to say "job" properly, causing the Coach to walk off in shame. |
9 | * HereWeGoAgain: At the end, Coach Z can finally pronounce the word "job" correctly, but can't pronounce Homestar's name. |
10 | -->'''Coach Z:''' You did a great ''job'', Hamstray. No wait, I mean Hamster. I mean Strumstar. I mean Stairmaster. Homegrown! Ramrod? Humphel?! |
11 | * HypocriticalHumor: Homestar and Pom Pom really have no place making fun of the way Coach Z says "job," considering the former speaks with ElmuhFuddSyndwome and the latter can only talk in bubble sounds and thus can't say ''any'' word correctly. |
12 | * NoodleIncident: Strong Sad made a tape of himself repeatedly saying the word "job" while he was "practicing the dictionary". The why of this is never elaborated upon. |
13 | * ShoutOut: Coach Z is forced to [[Film/AClockworkOrange watch a giant screen]] with the word 'job' on it, next to a silhouette that looks an awful lot like [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 Tom Servo]]. |
14 | * SleepLearning: Coach Z tries to learn how to say "job" by listening to a tape of Strong Sad saying the word over and over again. |
15 | * TheTriple: During Pom Pom's educational film on jobs. |
16 | -->The Business Man's ''JOB'' is giving the business.\ |
17 | The Construction Worker's ''JOB'' is to smash things.\ |
18 | The Poopsmith's ''JOB'' [[ToiletHumor is obvious]]. |
19 | * WaxingLyrical: Coach Z references House of Pain's "Jump Around" when he tells the team to "Pack it up, pack it in." |
20 | * YankTheDogsChain: PlayedForLaughs. Coach Z finally says "job" correctly... at the cost of pronouncing Homestar's name correctly. |
21 | * YouSayTomato: Coach Z's tendency to wildly mispronounce words is a plot point; at various points he pronounces "job" as "jorb", "jaerb", and "JEEOOORGHHHBBB!" |
