My, there's quite a list of knee-slappers! Feel free to examine them in more detail.
Due to the constantly updating nature of Homestuck, all spoilers are left unmarked.

Official works
- From the album art for Frog Hunt
: POOR DAVE!◊ - Not long after Alternia was released, Andrew announced that another album was already in the works. What did it turn out to be? A Squiddles album!
- GameGrl. Stylistic Suck at its finest.
- The promo video for Homestuck Vol 10.
- "Do you remember where you were every time John died? Think it'll stick this time? Don't hold your breath! It's time to ascend!"
- "Looks like those Strider boys are in trouble again! And not just because kissing boys is illegal!"
- "Remember when a dog chased another dog for three years? Now that's what I call a Fetch Quest!"
- "Warning: Penumbra Phantasm is not featured on this album."
- In the post-game official snapchat, we have the little Halloween Episode. Most notably would be Jake dressed up as a Na'vi. And by "dressed up", we mean pretty much completely naked except for a loincloth, blue paint and a fake tail taped to his bare behind. John's caption and Rose and Kanaya's reactions really sell the moment.John: april 2009 was a good time for old earth to stop making movies
- The fact that Kanaya's dressed like Mom Lalonde and Rose is dressed like the Dolorosa is equal parts funny and adorable.
- In the omnibuses' author notes:
- "Terezi knows that any legislacerator who doesn't at least TRY the 'drop a suspicious bag of beetles near the defendant and cry foul' trick should probably be disbarred."
- "This boy was horribly paralyzed in an unfortunate cliff-jumping accident, and dammit, [Vriska]'s going to make that WORK in this saucy scenario."
Meta
- Buying character shirts from the store would yield you some wise words from one, usually the character who wore them:Tavros: uHH, dON'T gET iN tHE rECUPERACOON, wHILE wEARING tHIS, sO yOU wON'T hAVE tO, uHH, cHANGE,
Aradia: i'm 0k with this shirt. maybe y0u are t00. 0r n0t. i'm 0kay with either possibility
Terezi: TH1S SH1RT SM3LLS D3L1C1OUS, BUT DONT COUNT ON 1T TO M4SK TH3 PUTR1D ST3NCH OF YOUR D3C31T FROM TH3 PROS3CUT1ON, H3H3H3H3H3 >:]
John well... i guess you probably can't do the windy thing, but that's ok! you can be my trusty sidekick. i'll handle all the windy stuff.
Vriska: Hahahaha. You think you have what it takes to wear this???????? Don't you know you have to 8e strong and 8rave to wear this and not 8e an em8arrassment to yourself???????? - The Works of Evil: Andrew Hussie's Devil Worship is quite possibly the funniest article ever written about Homestuck.
- Keep in mind though that the article as well as the entire ChristWire site is a satire on the overly conservative Christian Republicans.
- Then there's Andrew Hussie's comment: Just as planned.
- Go to the Betty Crocker Wikipedia page. Scroll down to 'in popular culture.' Suddenly realise how utterly absurd Homestuck truly is.
- Saved due to it constantly being removed:A fictionalized version, of the Betty Crocker character, is a supporting character in the webcomic Homestuck, wherein she is sometimes referred to as the "Batter Witch". This portrayal is married to a fictionalized version of Mark Twain in the early 20th century. It is strongly implied that she's a malevolent, nigh-immortal alien from another universe, and is using her corporate empire to control the population, and to bring about the ruin of this universe.
- Saved due to it constantly being removed:
- In the anticipation of the EOA5 Flash, Michael Bowman of the music team gives us a little preview...
- The End of Act 5 Flash was hosted on Newgrounds. Soon after it went up, the entire site crashed due to the sheer amount of traffic. Doubles as a Moment of Awesome.Hussie's Twitter feed: well that didn't work
- To give an idea as to exactly what "soon" means in this context, using time codes on forum posts, people figured out that Newgrounds went down in about 3 minutes. From EoA5 posting to Newgrounds' demise. That's less than half of the length of the Flash itself.
jephjacques @andrewhussie the internet is going to explode when you hit 100%, you fucker - One day on the Tumblr blog of Andrew Hussie, he allowed questions to be submitted for ten minutes. Knowing how big the fandom is, it had Gone Horribly Right.oh no……………
- Dante Basco, actor of Rufio, is reading Homestuck. This is funny, or will be funny if and when he reaches Act 5.
- Until then, we have Hussie fanboying over it on Twitter:
Andrew Hussie: Guys, I don't want to alarm you, but it seems that Dante Basco, aka Rufio from Hook, is currently reading Homestuck.Andrew Hussie: I wonder what he will think when he discovers me kissing his corpse?Andrew Hussie: Assuming he makes it that far. Do Hollywood superstars even have that kind of time??Andrew Hussie: I have to make sure I don't scare him off or anything. Do NOT fuck this up Hussie. Pull it together. There is a lot riding on this.Andrew Hussie: And just like that, I have already gone too far. [1]◊- Hell, Dante's liveblog alone is filled with crowning moments of funny as he reminds us all of precisely how confusing the first few acts are, which combined with the undoubtedly strange feeling of thousands of people egging you on and encouraging you leaves him hilarious nonplussed about the entire thing.And yes, I saw the “Hello Dante”… I greeted him on twitter… I have to admit, that’s pretty dope. I wonder if he makes this first part so hard to get as an obstacle for those not worthy to get the story… a somewhat right (sic) of passage… maybe I’m just rambling and have no idea what I’m talking about… Back to reading.
- He was successfully trolled by Hussie with the fake end of Act Four, the bunny distribution flash.
- He was successfully trolled
- And it FINALLY happens! And The Fandom Exploded.
- Bonus points because he was a little drunk at the time.
- Thanks to him "Azula" started reading it too! And before you ask of course she's voicing Vriska.
- Dante decided to do voice acting for Dave. Hilarity ensued.
- How did Hussie announce MSPA going adless? In true MSPA fashion of course.◊
- Every conceivable ship is now officially canon. All the ships. All of them.
- As a joke for Homestuck's Kickstarter project, Hussie is giving out silly◊ rewards◊ for◊ high◊ dollar◊ amounts◊. The joke's on Hussie though - someone actually donated 10,000 dollars, enough to reach the first tier. No wait, make that two someones!
- Too bad they didn't reach the second tier - that means their fantrolls aren't guaranteed to survive for more than one panel.
- You can tell Hussie wasn't prepared for it because he closed that tier after those two reached it, even though before then there were 10 slots in it.
- And here they are! And as promised...
- Snoop Dogg himself uploaded this fanart onto his facebook, he referred to the fan art as "Snoop Homestuck".
- This tweet by none other than Betty Crocker. It might just be an intern running the account, it might be a clever marketing ploy, but the point remains: Homestuck is now read by Rufio, Grey DeLisle and Betty Crocker. Homestuck truly is taking over the world.
- Andrew Hussie's new project. Namco High is a Dating Sim involving a multitude of Bandai Namco Entertainment characters in a High School AU. The concept is so absurd, it'll make your sides split just by reading a summary.
- Despite the server upgrades that took place during the inactivity, the fandom managed to accidentally DDOS the site within five minutes of the first post-gigapause update, a feat that manages to reach on par with the Cascade debacle and possibly surpass it.
- Presumably learning from this and Cascade, what does Hussie do with the long-awaited EOA6 and Act 7 flashes? Post them on YouTube, where viewers in the millions is average.
- Hussie actually wrote an Amazon review for Caliborn's "How to Draw Manga" book...In character as Caliborn. Naturally, the fandom noticed and made it the highest rated review. Bonus points for putting the review up way before the gigapause ended and Caliborn's attempts at drawing manga were revealed.
- As a result of funny coincidence (since post gigapause upd8s have a years worth of time from its creation to present), Vriska and Meenah's handholding update came right after the The Legend of Korra finale which mostly confirmed Korrasami. People drawing parallels to it caused Hussie to respond on his twitter.Andrew Hussie: " homestuck will eventually reach a gay singularity. mark it down. it will make korra look like republican propaganda."
- Andrew announces the start of a new pause on 1/19/15, and then goes on to say that he's not sure what to call it, and makes several suggestions.So what do we call this pause? I've been batting ideas around all day. We could go with the obvious choice, the MINIGIGAPAUSE. Or maybe, MEGAPAUSE 2: BACK IN THE MEGASADDLE. Or if that makes too much sense, we could always settle on the MICROTERAPAUSE. As you can see, there are so many incredibly intelligent and meaningful things we could call this pause.
> Go back
