* CelibateHero: He's never had sex (until "Pig Amok" with Bernice, whom he only has sex with because if he didn't, he'd die). Cornfed is seemingly too much of a gentleman to go through with having sex with any of the girls he meets. There are several points in which it looks like he's had sex, but it's always handwaved in a later episode that they didn't.

* TheUnfavourite: Both of them are this to Duckman, due to their vastly different interests and the rather large intelligence gap.

"Role With It" even has Duckman admit he makes little effort to parent them because of how frequently they dismiss him as an idiot and disregard his position as an authority figure (an admission that actually causes Charles and Mambo to feel ashamed).

He's also visibly disgusted when he catches one of the teachers at Ajax's school making out with a teenage student in one of the lockers.
