Carl Brutananadilewski Did Nothing Wrong
Carl is a massive asshole, even with his past.
But he did not deserve Mastershake as a Neighbor.
He was an asshole. He may have become that way because he was lonely, and he may have been lonely because of a shitty childhood, but he never made any real attempt to address those issues or to better himself.
Things like childhood trauma and loneliness have a lot to answer for, but if you aren't prepared to work on yourself at all then ultimately the problem is you.
You think he would've gotten along with Chicken Bittle if he lived instead of Shake?
Did he ever really have the opportunity to change though? He has to deal with Shake all day and even Frylock has been a douche to him.
he was the tragic victim of institutionalized anti polish racism
>Was Carl really an asshole or just misunderstood?
A bit of both. Like, yeah, he was an asshole, but the guy was never being a problem for anyone. He was uncouth, crude and irritable, but he paid the bills, paid his taxes where it wasn't avoidable and he seemingly never went out of his way to cause trouble. If anything, the guy just wanted to be left alone to work out of the home and enjoy a good pigskin game on TV, some porn and the occasional hooker.
An asshole? Yes. Misunderstood? Yes, but he did nothing wrong in the grand scheme of things that affected anyone but himself.
There was an episode in which Carl is shown how his life would've been like if he had hair: married and with a family and puppy. But Carl ends up ruining his alternate self, so...
Now that New Jersey legalized pot, maybe Carl will become more chill......
I mean to be fair, that alternate self is not himself. He most likely ruined his life because he couldn't stand the idea of another version of himself being happy while he's not.
Carl is polish?
Brutananadilewski sounds vaguely polish, so that's what folks go by.
Nah, only horse pills calm down Carl
Only eight years old and ate carpet for Christmas.
It would be better if Bittle was their sister rather than another guy
Is that even canon? It comes from the Cybernetic Ghost, and even Frylock in the movie calls him out on his stories being made-up bullshit.
Carpet? no no, that's berber.
He was definitely an asshole, though a sad one. He's a genuinely lonely person and you can see when the Aqua Teens aren't around to bother him, his life is extremely sad and directionless, and his childhood was extremely toxic.
Even then, that doesn't justify some of the nasty shit he's done, like ruining the life of his happy counterpart and making him commit suicide, or taking advantage of his dying mother who had only taken care of him his whole life.
He's a complicated guy with a lot of issues.
Carl admits that did actually happen to him
just not the part with the robots and lasers
Carl is just a classic case of middle age burnout. He peaked in his youth which is why he's so nostalgic about the 70s and 80s.
I'd rather him stay Bruce Campbell
Did Carl himself really ever peak though?
I would call him a chad, but it was berber
Don't forget protecting his father's amateur porno collection
RIGHT ON
YEAH
To be fair, his alt self wasn't sleeping in the same bed as his wife.
Yeah, that's definitely a bad sign
>Yeah well don't go hiring Morgan Freeman to narrate a biopic about it because it's about to be picked up by the Brutananadilewski Food Network Christmas Special.
yknow, Carl had a weird amount of connections for a guy who mostly sat around all day
>or taking advantage of his dying mother who had only taken care of him his whole life.
to be fair, outside of a shot of him being mad about going bald in elementary school(i can relate) we have no idea what his relationship with his mother was, or if they had much of one. as much as he abused her in that episode, she had no problem setting his ass on fire either
your past doesn't give you reasons to be an ass
