Transcript
ARUSEUS: {while typing "run_arumail.exe"}: I'm all about the e-mail. It's crazy cool.
subject: jlammyaruseus
i dare you to say jlammy 100 times
JLAMMY MAN
NAMINE: Why would you accept this email? That's a totally lucid premise that really goes nowhere.
ARUSEUS: {typing} Well, Mr. I Have Poor Grammar, or IHPG, I'll accept your dare.
{Aruseus gets up out of the chair and does a morning stretch}
ARUSEUS: Ok...here I go. Jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy, jlammy,
{The screen fades to black, white texts appears onscreen}
A few minutes later...
ARUSEUS: {panting} jlammy...jlammy...jlammy...jlammy...Ah! I can't do this. Wait! I have a plan!
NAMINE: Does it involve transferring the email to someone else?
{Aruseus types onscreen}
ARUSEUS: Perfect plan.
STRONG BAD: High-five!
{The scene freezes and darkens, Inner Aruseus appears}
INNER ARUSEUS: CHA! That dunb fatso will be stuck in his room until the end of time!
NAMINE: Well, bullying Strong Sad without an explicable reason was definitely one of the quirks early Strong Bad Emails had. Not a funny quirk by any means, but if he wants his Email show to fluorish I guess he has to continue along with the imitative nature.
{Strong Bad and Aruseus high-five, cut back to Lappy}
ARUSEUS: {typing} So there you have it, Jiblamy. I said jlammy 100 times.
LYLE: {Offscreen, The Cheat noises}
ARUSEUS: I told you! I will Hyper Beam the crap out of Zippy if he doesn't get you that burrito!
NAMINE: Oh, a Pokemon nod. Although I think this was back when Gen. IV was still the norm. Also, Hyper Beam sucks. "You'll lock yourself in for a turn? I'll just switch over to this Ghost-type here, and-"
NAMINE: Yeah, those nitpicks are more Noxigar's style. Anyway, I guess it's good for the author to keep his reference frame... stable?
LYLE: {Offscreen, annoyed and questioning The Cheat noises}
ARUSEUS: You better believe it, or I'll "1000 Years of Pain" you!
NAMINE: "I couldn't totally not reference Naruto. After all, I still found that show likeable until Shippuden!"
NAMINE: Heh. Noxigar found Naruto okay enough to watch until later variants of it threw him off too much.
LYLE: {screams, Cut back to Lappy}
ARUSEUS: {typing} Ugh...Lyle still wants a burrito...I better go give Zippy what he deserv-
{The screen zooms out with the door visible. A loud fart noise is heard, and a gas cloud can be seen going through the door}
TOM: {offscreen} AH ZAMORAK! THAT REEKS!
LYLE: {The Cheat noises}
TOM: LYLE! NEXT TIME I SEE OUR GENERAL, I'LL TELL HIM TO NOT GIVE YOU BURRITOS!
NAMINE: I recommend Zaba's next time you're in the mood for Mexican cuisine. You'd actually get to choose the burrito's ingredients so your guts don't split!
LYLE: {depressed The Cheat noises}
ARUSEUS: Tom! Shut up or I'll "1000 Years of Pain" you too!
TOM: THIS IS AT LEAST 5000 ON THE NOSE!
NAMINE: Line totally didn't come out of nowhere. Nope.
{The Paper comes down}
