While hanging with Pom Pom at the Stick, Strong Bad decides it's time to check his e-mail, and borrows Pom Pom's "Pom Pilot" for these purposes. Phylo D wants to know if it's hard to flip someone off while wearing boxing gloves. Strong Bad explains that it's not, and shows off some of his favorite ways to flip people off: traditional, behind the back, around the world, and Strong Bad's personal favorite, "the double deuce" (Pom Pom, by contrast, prefers the single deuce). But all this bird-flippery bites Strong Bad in the butt when he tries to flip off Homestar, and Homestar unwittingly returns the favor.

Given how cheerful Homestar sounds, I think it'd pretty clear he had no idea Strong Bad was trying to flip him off.

Added DiffLines:

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Two examples in one scene! When Strong Bad flips off Homestar, Homestar thinks he's waving and cheerfully says "Right back at you, Strong Bad!" This causes Strong Bad to believe that Homestar flipped ''him'' off.

Uh... it's not implied Homestar misunderstood the situation.
