Strong Glad married Strong Plaid when little Strong Sad was only two. He never knew his biological father and is always depressed because he worries about whether or not his father left because he didn't like him. To alleviate his stress, he writes in a journal, writes poems, paints, and makes up arts and crafts activities. In the Strongest Man in the world contest, Strong Bad sought Strong Sad's help as well, but Strong Sad's honesty compelled him to say no. Strong Bad's been picking on him ever since he received favouritism from Strong Plaid.
