You know it's crazy, Every decision we've ever made has led to this moment

Underneath the raunchiness and madness that is Brandon Rogers are moments that do make you genuinely sad.


  • Brandon Rogers' message to his 10 year old self gains a melancholic tone when Brandon talks about the friends he's separated from, though what he says next adds a bittersweetness to it, "Laugh and the world will Laugh with you, Cry and you Cry alone".
  • Timmy deserves a place on there given he lives with a neurotic mess of a mother who admits to not having a favourite child and a Grandpa who's calm but still irresponsible.
  • Bobby Worst's backstory shows that he was a victim of his peers, sure he brings in on himself but he becomes more sympathetic when Bryce Tankthrust (the only person had a mutual love for Bobby), kills his abusive father only for Bobby to take the blame and be thrown in prison, it's also clear that Bryce never intended for Bobby to be arrested let alone for what she did and feels bad for it.
    • Their deaths are also sad, as they end up dying side-by-side after finally seeing each other again.
  • Stuff & Sam! Episode 13 reveals that Sam was originally a troubled teen who was adopted by Donna, who took him in because she felt lonely after losing her son. She whips him into shape and they have a happy relationship, until Donna loses her memories of him thanks to Sam's bitter friend from the foster home who wasn't adopted. While he never manages to jog her memory, he decides to dye his hair blond (as she previously mentioned that seeing her son's blond hair made her happy) and pretend that he's her roommate.
