** George has NoSocialSkills and misses signals that his behavior irritates others, while his friends never bother to correct him and let him keep making the same mistakes.



** George is ObliviousToHatred and genuinely considers the others his friends, unaware that he has certain habits that irritate them since they never call him out directly. When he discovers that they all secretly hate him, [[HeroicBSOD he's hurt and devastated.]]



*** Alternatively, George IS a nice person, but can't stand around being with [[WithFriendsLikeThese a pack of fucking maniacs]] and gives them [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech a speech on the reasons they suck]]. They have their own [[JerkassRealization JerkassRealization]]s, and try to be nicer.

** George [[WhatTheHellHero calls out his friends]] for [[PoorCommunicationKills constantly bottling their grievances up and back-talking him instead of just telling him that his behavior bothers them]], for as annoying or rude as he often is, [[EveryoneHasStandards at least he's honest to people]]. They take this to heart and apologize for their dishonesty.

** George is incredibly boring. We are talking "[[TheBore suicide seems like an acceptable escape option]]" kind of 'boring'.

** George is incredibly boring. We are talking "[[TheBore suicide seems like an acceptable escape option]]" kind of 'boring'.''boring'', they keep him around for practical reasons, [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment mainly just using his boring personality to verbally torture others with his generic attitude in order to give them information on things they want to know]].



*** To justify the above (though this can be a standalone one), Jake and Co. are fucking {{Jerkass}}es.

** Despite being in a lot of friend groups (from the nerds, {{geek}}s, and [[TheGenericGuy average joes]] to the jocks, cheerleaders, and even {{bull|y}}ies), [[ButtMonkey George]] is basically disliked in all of them, to the point where he's often the [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg Zoidberg]] of these friend groups. (e.g. "[[TrueCompanions These are my close, fellow intellectuals,]] [[BadassBoast with bonds so strong we can outwit anyone with our like-minded, mighty brains!]] [[MoodWhiplash Oh and George is just there I guess.]]" - {{The lead|er}}ing nerd Neville.)
