* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Buddy's actual motives throughout. Did he challenge Jerry to a fight and then lose on purpose only because rumors are circulating about him and he doesn't like being the center of attention? If so, is he flying by the seat of his pants, playing XanatosSpeedChess or running a BatmanGambit? Some have speculated that the reason he looks older than he apparently is is because he ''is'' older, and has done this sort of thing many times at many different schools, redeeming nerds and geeks just ForTheLulz or for some other, more personal reason.
