... It's Dot Com!

Just about two years ago, after returning home from overseas, a good friend of mine introduced me to Homestar Runner
http://www.homestarrunner.com/.
What is it that tickles me so about this web-based Flash animation jewel? Personally, I appreciate its fine sense of the absurd; it offers up a host of characters with various conceits (some characters have invisible limbs, while for others typing perfectly with boxing gloves on is as normal as... not having visible limbs). This humour is not for everyone: some of my friends think it is brilliant, while others are amused that I am amused by what is so obviously just a group of random colours dancing on the screen ("Oooo... look at the pretty shapes! Ha Ha Ha!"). There seems to be no middle ground on this.
These guys do it all: music, interactive games, and e-mails answered by Strong Bad (the aforementioned character who types admirably well with boxing gloves on). Do yourself a favor - go see Homestar, and if you like what you see come on back and we'll talk. However, if all you see is a random group of colours... well, come back anyways and I'll try to find something else to chat about.


Or ... maybe I'll just sic The Cheat on you - go get 'em The Cheat! →
