* TookALevelInJerkass: In many of his starring roles from the 40's to early 50's, [[DependingOnTheWriter especially in Chuck Jones and Robert McKimson's shorts]], Porky would usually be rather curmudgeonly and sarcastic, and even prone to acts of extreme violence, including physical abuse, to get whatever he wanted (whether it be his hunting target, peace and civility, or some other goal), yet somehow never crossed the villain territory that [[IneffectualSympatheticVillain Elmer Fudd]] and [[HairTriggerTemper Yosemite Sam]] were in. Granted how justified he is in this behavior varies ([[OnlySaneMan especially given the]] [[ThePrankster people he is]] [[EscalatingWar usually paired against]]).
* VagueAge: In his earlier cartoons, Porky's age was all over the place. Some cartoons, including his debut, ''I Haven't Got A Hat'', depict him as a child. In others, he's an adult (one of which, he even had an adult daughter). Later cartoons seemed to settle on him being an adult.
