cartoon characters that are a lot more mentally ill than they put on

pic related. this fucker has plenty of repressed emotional baggage. between a borderline abusive father, bisexual tendencies and the habit of personifying every inanimate object around him, which kind of shows how horribly lonely he really feels

He's completely insane by real-life standards but by cartoon standards he's pretty normal. I just watched the one where his bar starts being successful when his old friend rebrands it and he freaks out and starts tearing all the decorations down and calling the customers idiots and makes his wealthy business genius friend who was investing in his restaurant leave. That would have probably ended in a divorce in real life.

>Lynn, if this restaurant fails I'm going to kill myself.

In front of his kids no less.

he's just hank hill with a funny family.

his kids are pretty fucking insane as well. between gene and his ADHD, tina being a spergisaurus, and louise's sociopathic undertones. but i guess all these character's quirks are what makes the whole show. i love almost every character in the show, even jimmy pesto to an extent

Bob is the least insane person on the show. Gene literally shits in a litter box in the closet and walks around with his dick hanging out without realizing it.

Tina was retarded to the point of being borderline catatonic in the first season. It's jarring to go back and rewatch it.

He made the restaurant so he could cook what inspires him

What he should have done is hire someone else to cook the burgers, save up some money, go back at it with a food truck or invest in a second location somewhere else

It was a bad idea to give up on extra money, but if he wasn’t happy, I don’t think he’s crazy for doing what he did
I just think he’s really bad with money

>bisexual
>among list of mental illness
Sup Forums is that way >>>>>
Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Honestly surprised how well him and Linda get along considering they spend every waking moment together and how intense she can be.
I guess it helps that he's so passive, it's the only way that relationship would work IRL.

>It was a bad idea to give up on extra money, but if he wasn’t happy, I don’t think he’s crazy for doing what he did

No, he was VERY crazy in that episode. He didn't even attempt to find a compromise so he could continue partnering with the business wunderkind. Like I get it, he thinks tiki stuff is cheap, but the actual food wasn't being affected or messed with at all. Furthermore, many people open a second restaurant if their first one succeeds. Why not let businessman make all the decisions for your first restaurant, then he could open Bob's Bistro on the Beach or whatever fancy restaurant he was fantasizing about when they were going to sell the wharf and do whatever the hell he wants with it with complete financial security?

fuck off you shithead. maybe i didnt phrase it correctly. the bisexuality itself is not a mental illness, but the repressing of the bisexual feelings which were probably never realized or experimented with can kind of be part of it. he tries every day to live the life of a straight man with a wife and kids, but he shows no interest in either. he really is in his own little world. and his unrealized tendencies slip out once in a while, such as him befriending the trannies when he became a cab driver, and being tempted to run off with the gay deli worker who kept hitting on him

>bisexual tendencies
being loosey goosey with your sexuality isn't a sign of mental illness, that's just how some people be.

I think you're exaggerating a bit
Bob is perfectly happy, he just has weird habits (most notably talking to inanimate objects) that he picked up as a kid

>cartoon characters that are a lot more mentally ill than they put on

This guy. Wouldn't've expected it from a CBBC show but the poor man is canonically drunk almost the entire time he's on-screen. Gets literally insulted on a daily basis if not hourly, to the point where the fucker very likely doesn't know his own name.

Dude thought his old partner's last message was calling him "A Potato" - but it was in fact a P.T.O. telling him to rescue him that night.

"That night" was 20 years ago.

Pic related, taken from the actual script of the scene where he realises this.

>(most notably talking to inanimate objects)
Its sad because i can relate

Secret show was fucking gold, have to rewatch it sometime. Havent seen it in probably over ten years

>Not wanting to get trashed on Absinthe for Thanksgiving and talk to your turkey like it was out of some Studio Ghibli movie

Pleb-tier taste OP.

Well then m'lad, you're in luck! I am the curator of the largest most definitive archive of the show - some things in here are direct from the studio vault that have never been released before!

drive.google.com/open?id=0B7Tjk8MKs_RLY0xxbWNvanFqTGc

Some things I'm still adding to like the international dubs and scans of the books, but there's certainly enough there to sate you. Also the ONLY source for the show without CBBC Broadcast watermarks. Enjoy!

episodes like that one are a good example of when 'preserving the status quo' ends up making a situation look really unrealistic.

Mentally healthy people aren't funny/entertaining in a show.

Thanks a bunch user, your a righteous dude

When I was twelve I wrote in to Reader's Digest asking them why the silverware would yell at me if I didn't use them as eating utensils, especially if I went for a different one after touching the first one on the rack, or why my stuffed animals kept insulting me whenever I would go into my room, and their response was that I need serious help and need to talk to a therapist about it.

They published that letter, too.

good fucking lord I forgot about this shows existence

>I just think he's really bad with money
I don't think that's particularly fair to say. Just think about all the times he's had to repair his restaurant and home. If anything he's just really fucking unlucky with money.

>getting butthurt over a single point relating to sexuality in a list of points about mental health
>>>out
When did Sup Forums get so fucking hurt feelings over everything?

Not a problem - it honesty makes me happy that some anons here still remember the show fondly. It's really made my day.

do you legitimately have schizophrenia?

honest question though, did you? was it an actual mental problem?

Talking to inanimate objects is a personality quirk.
Hearing voices from things that are not animate, especially ones with angry opinions of you at a young age is a sign of mental stress and disassociation.

Basically reader's digest was right and i hope you don't still think silverware talks to you.

I decided to stop being crazy. My mom's side of the family, and my mom herself, have bipolar disorder, and I grew up in a sexually abusive household where I was treated as garbage because I had a penis. I still remember my mom getting my younger sister condoms when she was fourteen, whereas I was getting hit if I walked a girl to her house.

As for what I have, I tried going to therapists, but they all talked more about their problems than listening to mine. I give off an aura of comfort, I guess. In the Air Force, I was put in charge of the ones being discharged for being crazy because of it. I've had to talk people out of suicide, or walked in on people who killed themselves.

Point is, I could be crazy, but I choose not to be. I have an extreme fear of vulnerability, though, so I don't have any friends, nor have I ever kissed a girl or been on a date. I could probably get over those if I was willing to let myself be hurt, but after 20+ years of nothing but emotional abuse getting laid isn't worth the risk. Plus, it's not like I can just tell a girl, "Hey, you scare the shit out of me, would you mind taking it super-slow with me? We could probably hold hands after three months of dating!" since she'd just move on to the next hunk of beef that rolls up beside her.

I just choose to not be crazy.

...Well, good on ya mate. Most fags here are probably gonna shit on you but I think you've done a feat to be proud of. Keep at it mate, you've come far, and you'll damn well go far.

Good on you user. Doesn't need to be sharing time, but I guess I have my own version of feeling like the only sane one in the family, most are bipolar, manic/depressive, or recluses, so I understand a bit of being the shoulder for others. Much respect to your mental fortitude to make the affirmation, I'm still trying to sort that out I guess.

I'd be your friend user

the household you grew up in was extremely fucked up. i am, in short, absolutely horrified at what i read. i sincerely hope you cut off complete contact with all of your family.

i have sort of the same problem with my family but to a much, much lesser extent, and its for a different reason than simply being male. ive been diagnosed with aspergers when i was very young because i was prone to misbehaving in school, not to mention i did not want to bother with other kids and had a lot of trouble paying attention. as i grew into a teenager and eventually an adult i slowly grew out of most of the more substantial symptoms and now act pretty much normal. but my parents will always have the feeling in their mind that i am classically mentally disabled. when i had a car my parents put a tracker in it without my knowledge. and they made me download a "find my iphone" app when i got my last phone so they could track me that way. plus they also track my web history and watch everything i do on the computer (which they mainly did the latter because theyve had the suspicion throughout my teenage years that i was gay, which was immediately disbanded once they decided to kink shame me and make me feel even more insecure about my personal privacy). they would not let me go to bars or hang out with friends in social drinking situations well after i turned 21, yet paid for my sister's fake ID when she was 18 and let her join a sorority. thankfully my sister quickly found out the greek life was not for her and is quitting. she never went to a frat party or even had sex before. whether thats why my parents trust her more than me i dont know, but i was a pretty wayward teenager with multiple drug addictions and problems with depression

the damn float episode.

easy money for almost 0 capital. family freaking ruins it before jimmy reveals he joined the contest too.

unlucky is putting it mildly.

Dont worry user i still collect action figures because it keeps me from killing myself and it makes me feel less lonely

U wot

I mean if you can take it, I guess that's your decision. But my life isn't an ounce as shit as yours and I find the loneliness unbearable even with all my trust issues.

Jesus christ user, i feel so sorry for you

just wanted to add ive sinced smacked up the car and deleted the iphone app soon after i unwittingly downloaded it. ive pretty much accepted the fact i have no personal privacy and just dont give a fuck anymore. i watch the most fucked up porn just to even fuck with my parents, i bring tinder girls to my house and to my room to fuck despite there being cameras all over the house. My severely autistic brother (reason why we have all the house cameras) would always walk in on me and watch me shower specifically looking at my dingdong, and would sneak up behind me while im peeing, but eventually my parents installed a lock on the bathroom door after constant nagging from me.

>can't hang with lonely anons and give them comforting brojobs
hope things look up for you man

Bob has issues because he grew up really lonely
Giving human qualities to inanimate objects
Obsessing over Thanksgiving
Wanting to keep his kids around the restaurant even when they are being useless just because they "help"
Not to mention that he.can get really immature when he is mad Wich is something he otherwise isn't at all Wich probably is rooted in his awful relationship with his dad
He is not insane, hell the issues he experiences and the way he experiences them is pretty believable and realistic for a show in Wich the town is about to get destroyed at least once a season

I wanted to cut off all contact. That's what my dad did with his family. But then I thought, well... Why? They're crazy. Textbook definition crazy. What do I get from penalizing them for being crazy? Do I get money, fame, power, maybe some moral high ground?

I don't spend much time with them, but I'll be with them for the holidays. I've had a heart-to-heart with my mom, and she apologized for everything she did, and I told her I know she tried her best. She cried. I didn't. There was so much more to be gained by accepting her apology than telling her to fuck off, especially since I am far away from her, from all of them, now.

All I can do is move on, and give myself my own purpose.

i know this is going to be really out of your comfort zone, but i highly recommend you at least make an effort to try to find at least an emotional soulmate. if the girl truly loved you she would understand your story and accomodate the relationship to make you comfortable and happy. unfortunately most women will not be like that, but there is always an exception to the rule, especially on the internet where most of the "alternative" personality types with damaged backgrounds tend to go. godspeed my man

I'm bisexual and I admit it's a mental ilness

>A married man with 3 children should sexually experiment with other men

Thanks user, dont worry i stole one of my christmas presents early so im feeling content rn

Nothing wrong with that, buddy.

Same. I just dont care and revel in the degeneracy im in.

Very impressive. I loved the show. Wish it had lasted more than 2 seasons, was very creative.

it's like when jesus christ went to town on the -happy_merchant.jpg-s that plagued his church

>it's like when jesus christ went to town on the -happy_merchant.jpg-s that plagued his church
Never change, Sup Forums

Also, I think we need a thread just for discussion on this great show.

I got so attached to my Xbox in highschool that I kept having nightmares in wich people destroyed it or took it away, sometimes after a bad nightmare I would go downstairs to check on it and see it was safe
If there was a fire and I had to choose between the Xbox or my dog Wich had been my best friend since I was 5 I would have picked the xbox on a heartbeat, hell now that I think about it I'm pretty sure I talked to it a couple times too, I even had this ritual whenever I finished a game that I would take it out and turn the Xbox off for the day and then I would display it on my shelf of finished games like a trophy and I wasn't allowed to play it again for a while because it was dead now and that was his memorial

Tony Collingwood - amazing chap to talk to btw - always wanted a recommission for it but it never came. He told me the entire first half of the plot for S3E01 that never got produced which I may turn into a green later...

Hell yes.

>He told me the entire first half of the plot for S3E01 that never got produced

Ooooh, care to share?

Thank you for the entire show without watermarks. Shame they never released it in HD.

Making a thread about the show to post it in, be sure to bump it so it lasts at least an hour.

And boi howdy do those watermarkless rips have a tale to tell, they were a real bitch to source I can tell ye.

>be sure to bump it so it lasts at least an hour.
Will do my best!

do you have a copy?

are we ever gonna have a normal thread

Family? Bob did it to himself just by letting Jimmy know about it. He knows Jimmy wants to beat him at everything. If nothing else, the game show episode is him being unlucky. Who wins gack 5 times in a row?

was referring more on how linda screwed up the costumes (identical instead of varied) but yeah, notifying jimmy about the float was on bob.

anyone know how much jimmy spent on his float just to screw with bob? that sounds just like JLU luthor spending millions just to screw with superman with his fake presidential run.

>He made the restaurant so he could cook what inspires him
Which is basically a gag when all he makes is run of the mill burgers that people don't particularly care to buy.

Yes.
Especially if they have the gift.
Do you know what kind of fucked up shit can happen with repressing it?

He's patched things up with his dad a long time ago

Hey user, we love you. Don't give up on relationships, from personal experience, there are alot of men and women who want to take things super slow. For some reason I always get stuck with then. Proud of you for making it this far, now go read your favorite comic book.

?

Have you watched either show?

user...

user, just because /r9k/ is always saying "LOL ALL WOMEN WANT CHADS TO FUCK 'EM" that's not true, at all, I'm sure one day you'll find someone who is willing to take it slow because she genuinely cares about you, you seem like a skittish but still cool dude, and that's what matters most in this world, it may seem people are all about looks and banging, those people, don't get 'em in your life, they're easy to spot, but just as many people, if not more are all about wanting cool dudes in their life, stay cool, and I'm sorry you had to go through that bullshit, growing up dealing with "All men are pigs." really hits you.

I mean, with a wife like Linda, you gotta be open to both genders.

Woah dang. I'm going to give this to my twelve year old brother. I'll put it in n his laptop when I visit for Christmas. Thanks!

>this thread
uh

Anyway, Korra's probably still way more fucked up than the show let on. They obviously didn't want to leave her mental recovery arc on a bittersweet note so they through in that thing about relating to Kuvira.

>brief temptation or just making FRIENDS with people is a sign you should blow up your whole fucking life on a whim.

What the fuck dude.

I mean the fact that Bob was willing to say out loud that he's "mostly straight" sounds like a good indication that he isn't suppressing his bisexuality. If he actually is bi and that wasn't a joke.

I'm waiting for this fucker to crack in the next season

Sorry for your loss user.

also hey, first time I've ever seen Murdoch Murdoch on Sup Forums, neat

I wouldn't say that he's abusive, he loves his kids even though how strange they seem to him, like Hank Hill. Like other anons said, everything else can be explained through his bad childhood, being forced to stay in the restaurant, leaving him with no time for actual friends, so he instead viewed kitchen utensils as people

Unfortunately, i feel like i relate a lot to Bob

that's kind of the joke
here you have a straight man with a crazy family
turns out he's just as crazy as them

No one in that show is Hank Hill.

Okay.

You better proofs that shit, nigga.

>I just choose to not be crazy.

You're playing a dangerous game user.

I know it is probably going to happen but I'm not ready. He's too pure, I don't want to see him sad.

He also had a make out fantasy about a steer.

Pure my ass, he buys expensive 'gifts' for his spouses when really it is just shit that he really wanted for himself yet somehow we are supposed to think it was such a sweet thing because it was very expensive.

>crazy bisexual

I'm rooting for you user.

Bojack Horseman is a series about bad people trying to get better but they fuck themselves over

shit is hits too close to home for me to watch

my sister specifically hates chad types. they directly turn her off. she always dates passive "nice boy next door" types. her boyfriend right now is actually kind of a pussy in my opinion

back to what user said, not every girl wants a douchebag, and the ones who do, steer clear of them. you dont want their emotional baggage or nether region baggage when they do decide to finally date you

I know this thread is pretty off the rails but still
>legitimately has PTSD, frequently wakes up screaming from nightmares
>has a mental vault where he represses painful/disturbing memories, uses it very casually
>sexually aroused by violence
>probably more shit I'm forgetting
Finn's an interesting little nut

I know none of y'all read Uh-Oh It's A Dinosaur, but the main character kind of exploded in the recent arc.

Here you've got this meek, somewhat shy guy. Wants to be a cartoonist, all his cartoons get rejected. Works in photo at the retail store he's the best at it. Photo section gets closed, now he's a cashier which he hates and the photo store is never hiring. Everything he's tried to do with his life has backfired to the point where he's so paralyzed with the fear of failure that he can't even go outside or interact with people, except to go to work, where he has to interact with very angry people all the time. And now he's been laid off and replaced with a robot.

It was presented really well too. This comic's been going on for years, and he never let on that he was anything more than slightly depressed and socially awkward.

>between a borderline abusive father

In what bitch ass pussy universe do you live in where he's anything REMOTELY abusive.

Go back to tumblr.

>Which is basically a gag when all he makes is run of the mill burgers

Actually the show has gone to great lengths to show his burgers are actually quite good. I mean the fact that he uses only fresh ingredients right there is enough to make a huge difference in taste.

Full page.

Holy shit this thing has lasted nearly 24 hours, only a matter of minutes to go.

I am truely heartwarmed.

Literally every character who tries his burger says they're great, it's just nobody goes to his resturaunt because he's a terrible salesman
