** JerkassToOne: While Kaeloo can be mean at times to any of the characters, she is particularly horrible to Stumpy. She does things such as yelling "YOU LOST" in his ear and mocking him for losing a game, nearly allowing him to drown in quicksand, and refusing to apologize for burning his comic books, which she never does to the other characters, despite the fact that Stumpy didn't provoke her at all.

* AerithAndBob: There are weird names like "Stumpy" and "Quack Quack", but there's also a guy named Olaf. This is discussed in seasons 4 and 5, which reveal that these names are considered bizarre in-universe as well. Quack-Quack was named by a young Kaeloo when she found his egg, Stumpy's family is known for giving terrible names to their children that everyone else finds ridiculous, and Mr. Cat has the fairly normal first name of Hector.
