* PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad: Parodied in the Christmas Aftermath episode, where he mentioned that people complained about having to say "Happy Holidays" out of respect for other beliefs when they ''insist'' on saying "Merry Christmas." So he coined a new term called '''HAPPY SHUT THE FUCK UP!''' and has been used in some of James's other Christmas specials, including the AVGN Winter Games, and even as himself at the end of his TMNT Christmas review.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: While calling him a jerk may be a stretch, the Bullshit Man is cynical and censures almost everything that proves to be an inconvenience to him. However, beneath his grouchy exterior, he does have a soft core which he shows on a few occasions.
** In "Feeding Birds", he is shown to care for his two pet cats when he states that he feeds the birds outside of his house just so that they can watch them.
** He does not hate funerals and states that they are a healthy way of getting together with family and paying respects to a member or other loved one that has passed away. The same cannot be said for dangerous funeral processions, though.
** At the end of "Inflatable Decorations", he wishes the viewers a happy Halloween and a merry Christmas.
