* BigEater: Ronnie, obviously, but particularly when it comes to chicken nuggets.

* BizarreAlienBiology: "Runnie's Replace." Among his oddities:
** His face looks like a collection of balls stuck together, except for his beard, which comes off.

** He offers Agris an "animo" tape he was keeping in his shirt by letting it slide out (without moving, mind you), which for some reason is covered in [[{{Squick}} mysterious purple goo.]]

* NervousWreck: Ronnie is constantly paranoid about what other people think about him, going to great lengths to save himself from embarrassment (although this often backfires and Ronnie ends up humiliated anyway). He's also easily startled by loud noises and tends to get emotionally overwhelmed at extremely trivial shortcomings. Even [[http://www.whompcomic.com/2013/08/23/blame-it-on-the-pain/ thinking about something sad]] will reduce him to a cripplingly-depressed (and [[NakedPeopleAreFunny naked]]) puddle.
