** As a animal lover, he prefers to ignore the existence WesternAnimation/Madagascar3EuropesMostWanted for ending with [[spoiler:the main animals finding joy in a circus instead of the wild]], he's also not fond of the WesternAnimation/PenguinsOfMadagascar movie out of lacking connection with the [[WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar TV series ]] which he regards as much better
** He will rather pretend that [[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanOnStrangerTides the fourth]] and [[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanDeadMenTellNoTales the fifth]] Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean movies don't exist

** ''WesternAnimation/IceAge'' concluded with ''[[WesternAnimation/IceAgeDawnOfTheDinosaurs Dawn of the Dinosaurs ]]''. Nothing was released after that except for ''[[WesternAnimation/IceAgeScratTales Scrat Tales]]'' and the 30-second short where Scrat eats his Acorn
** He doesn't consider the events of ''WesternAnimation/RalphBreaksTheInternet'' to be even close to make canonical sense with the original movie.
**While he regards ''Series/HowIMetYourMother'' to be one of his favorite comedies of all time, he refuses to acknowledge the existence of the [[AudienceAlienatingEnding controversial two-parter finale]].
**Related to another AudienceAlienatingEnding, ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'' never had a fourth season and if it did, it ended with the coronation of Eclipsa and Globgor and nothing else. Similar feelings towards the final season of ''Series/{{Lucifer}}''
**He mostly ignores the final season of ''Series/{{Community}}'' besides the final episode which he regards as one of his favorites of the entire series. He also prefers to ignore [[HesJustHiding the death of Pierce]]
**While he's not the biggest fan of ''Series/{{Friends}}'', if he does watch it, it will be of the first 6 seasons and almost never of the later ones.
**The first 2 seasons of ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'' for being the point before the series had his GrowingTheBeard moment.

**Once entering high school he finally gained a whole bunch of friends and managed to be very well liked and midly popular during this period of life.

*TookALevelInKindness: Around 2017 once he became more social
