1* In the third volume, Howard finally stops being his spineless self for a minute and [[SuddenPrincipledStand calls Costigan out]] on his immoral bullshit. Granted, it doesn't work, but Howard's the only character to really stand up to the slimy bastard.
2* At the Halloween Hop, Dennis and Niall get one for sheer ballsiness (combined with SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}}) when they go as Principal Costigan and his wife Trudy respectively. Costigan sees them and after a full minute of staring at them, he leaves without a word.
3* Skippy also gets one for having the balls to challenge Carl, a cruel and merciless bully, to a fight when the latter torches his locker. The outcome of the fight, however, is even better: after ducking and dodging the whole fight, Skippy wins with one punch to Carl's glass jaw.
4** Before challenging him, [[TheQuietOne quiet and shy Skippy]] deciding that he won't take that crap anymore and he's going to date Lori, Carl be damned, counts too:
5--> '''Geoff''': You can't go to Lori's house, Skip! Carl will kill you!
6--> '''Skippy''': I'm going to go. Carl's not going to stop me.
7--> '''Geoff''': But, uh, Skip, what if he ''does'' stop you?
8--> '''Skippy''': He can ''try.''
9--> '''Geoff''': What's that supposed to mean?
10--> '''Skippy''': Maybe it's time someone stopped him.
11--> '''Geoff''': What are you talking about? You don't stand a chance against him!
12--> '''Dennis''': This way you're going to lose the girl, ''and'' get stomped into the ground.
13--> '''Geoff''': And you've got a race in three days! Skippy, how will you be able to race if you're stomped into the ground? (Skippy is already leaving) Skippy?
