| abstract | - Stuff Blowing Up is cool enough, but it somehow becomes even cooler when that stuff is human heads. Asploding heads may not be particularly realistic in some cases, but they sure look impressive. If people's heads start blowing up, it's usually a bad sign. The title is deliberate Engrish from the Strong Bad Email "video games" and subsequent game "StrongBadZone" on Homestar Runner, wherein the head of the person playing the game is presumed not to have actually asploded, although there have been no studies done on the matter so far as we are aware. Head asplosions are typically the result of an Explosive Leash, being shot in the head (resulting in Pink Mist), or absorbing too much knowledge. Often, just before it happens, the unfortunate character clutches their skull. There's also the metaphorical (and occasionally literal for Mechanical Lifeforms) asploding that is said to occur when one's brain has been assaulted by a Logic Bomb or requires sufficient Brain Bleach.
