5** Emperor Evulz's tabble manners are [[NauseaFuel so disgusting]] that anyone who sees him eat [[NightmareFuel ends up having a hard time sleeping]].

17* '''Subverted''':
18** Emperor Evulz eats his food with the same manners the viewer would expect of an emperor...
19** Emperor Evan eats sloppily - but this is actually because of nerve damage and he is not an EvilCripple either.
20* '''Double Subverted''':
21** ...but only in public. In private, he eats like a slob.
22** After a few years of involuntary eating difficulties, Evulz decides he enjoys being a pig and goes out of his way to make himself a less refined eater.

35* '''Discussed''': ???
36* '''Conversed''': ???
37* '''Deconstructed''': The Emperor's table manners [[EvenEvilHasStandards disgust and offend his subordinates and colleagues]]. His overindulgence of rich foods [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome results in obesity and constipation]], and his clothes are constantly getting set to the cleaners due to food stains. Several times he nearly passes out from choking and [[KarmicDeath he even dies from it]].
38* '''Reconstructed''': For all it's low points, being a minion of Evulz has a notable advantage - namely, Evulz does not encourage minions to shame eachother for lifestyle choices. As a result, a large amount of his minions also have terrible table manners. In addition, Evulz considers choking a necessary risk to gross out any visitors, has a rigorous exercise routine to work off the fat and uses medication to help with the pooing problem.
