Homestar Runner

Posted:
in General Discussion edited January 2014
Have any of you seen www.homestarrunner.com? Do you like it? I think that it's totally awesome! I check it everyday! This has to be singly the best flash series on the internet. There are new icons for OS X, and I want to see how they look at 128*128. So, could someone try them out?



http://homestarrunner.com/homester.html





Click the second white button on the right of the screen (may/may not be flashing 'NEW'), click OS X icons, dl them, temporarily (until you realize how totally awesome they are!) use them as an icon, and take a screenshot. Thanks!

    The screen capture on the second set went a little weird. The icons look fine normally. Here they are at full res:

    Ahem.... The welcome speech refers to www.homestarrunner.net , which was a fan site. There were 4500+ members, out of about 250,000 hits per day on www.homestarrunner.com

    ive RARELY heard of it outside the "internet" crowd...



    I think I've talked about it ITRW with about 3 people...



    maybe the main thing is... people know about it... but it isn't THAT big of a deal to know HSR...



    its freakin' hilarious tho...



    I bet of the people I know who regularly use the internet less then 20% know about HSR...

    I don't really like it. I do find some of the emails what's his name reads though, they are humorous. I always thought it was completely annoying until the one email about how to make your own website.

    Good stuff. We watch it in my class at least once a week (well we are a networking/comp. tech class so...). I have a friend who can do the voices perfectly. Good stuff all around.

    I've liked this site forever. It's getting really popular among college age kinds lately. I was walking down the hall one day when I heard the "Everybody, Everybody" theme coming out of a teacher's office.

    I bet if you ask people, they would know.

    I occasionally slip in a quote or reference from h*s when talking to people. You immediately know if they get it if it just slips under the radar for them.
