* KickTheSonOfABitch: In "Speechless", he throws Rodney twice and tries to physically attack him after he loses his voice because of him, which could be considered animal abuse; however, it's kind of justified considering Rodney harassed him while he was trying to write a speech and later talked him into watching a comedy film with him, making him lose his voice from intense laughter.

* SimpletonVoice: Just hearing his voice, you ''know'' that he's going to be stupid. Not surprising, considering that it sounds similar to other [[TheDitz ditzy]] characters Richard Steven Horvitz has voiced (e.g. Daggit from ''WesternAnimation/TheAngryBeavers'' and Billy from ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy'').
