[[folder:Michelle]]
!!Michelle

Lily's old high school best friend. Lily tends to regress into a Sassy White Woman every time they get together.

->'''Played by''': Creator/RyanMichelleBathe

* BrainyBrunette: She is almost done with her dissertation to get her Ph.D. in behavioral psychology, also defining the "Revertigo" as "associative regression".
* OnlyOneName: The others never mention her last name.
* SassyBlackWoman: Subverted. She and Lily start talking like this whenever they're together. Once Lily leaves the room, she casually (and without the urban accent) talks to the others about her Ph.D.
* TokenBlackFriend: She's black in a mostly white cast, and her role is to be Lily's best friend from high school.

[[folder:Cathy]]

->'''Played by''': Creator/LindsayPrice

* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Besides the fact that she talks a lot, she also tends to deviate from the actual question and babble about random unrelated topics.
* AmicableExes: When she and Ted see each other a year later, she casually greets him and happily tells him she is getting married.
* AsianAirhead[=/=]TheDitz: Most of her rants won't make sense or even get closer to the original question.
* CharacterFilibuster: The gang got exasperated with her because she gave a huge rant about random stuff just to answer a simple question.
* MotorMouth: She talks. A lot. Nonstop.
* OddCouple: A year later, she gets engaged to a deaf guy (who just now notes her MotorMouth).
* PunnyName: Her name sounds like "Chatty"

* GirlNextDoor: To the point she is even known as "The Ultimate Girl Next Door"

* TheChick: She is officially this for The Mother's group after Cindy gets to be TheLancer. She is girlier than Cindy and less bright.

* MsFanservice: She is Music/KatyPerry after all. Accentuated by her looks on the episode, which consist of a [[LadyInRed red dress]] with a [[BuxomIsBetter nice cleavage]].

* BigBreastPride: While in a hot tub with Ted, she misinterprets him complimenting her tattoos to him complimenting her "tits", but she's not offended because she's apparently proud of being a [[BuxomIsBetter natural buxom]].

->'''Played by''': Music/JenniferLopez

* HotScientist: She is a very attractive zoologist.

* HollywoodNerd: To transform ''Britney Spears'' into an awkward nerdy girl is an accomplished task.

-->(While performing a rain dance) '''Ted:''' "Hey, Penelope. Do you think I'm doing this right?"
--> '''Penelope:''' "I think so."
--> '''Ted:''' "Uh-huh. So does it look anything like a real rain dance?"
--> '''Penelope:''' "I think so."
--> '''Ted:''' "Hey, Penelope. Have you ever seen a real rain dance before?"
--> '''Penelope:''' "No."
--> '''Ted:''' "No?!"
--> '''Penelope:''' "I tread extensively on the subject..."
--> '''Ted:''' "Have you ever seen a rain dance?"
--> '''Penelope:''' "I've seen a film strip."
--> (Pissed-off) '''Ted:''' "[[DeadpanSnarker Perfect]]! I should run. I'm getting a brain surgery from a guy who watched a couple episodes of Series/{{ER}}!"

--> '''Honey''': My apartment building is so safe. My landlord even installed a security camera in my shower.
--> '''Marshall''': Oh, honey...
--> '''Honey''': [[FourOneNineScam Maybe I should feel weird about giving a stranger my Social Security Number, but the guy's a Nigerian prince!]]
--> '''Marshall''': Oh, honey...
--> '''Honey''': I just had a great TV audition...behind the KFC where the executive producer works on the weekend.
--> '''Marshall''': [[RuleOfThree Oh, honey!!]]

* MsFanservice: She is Music/KatyPerry after all. Accentuated by her looks on the episode, which consist of a red dress with a [[BuxomIsBetter nice cleavage]].

* DoubleStandard: Played with. Many things Jenkins does are funny coming from a fat guy. If eating a jar of cherries, dancing topless and twerking behind the boss comes from a woman, it becomes a {{fetish}}.

* MsFanservice: Just look at some of those stories Marshall told about her!

* SamusIsAGirl: When Marshall told the gang stories about her antics, they all thought she was a man until they finally met her in person. Justified as Ted really thought Jenkins was a guy when Marshall told how Jenkins ''"peed out of a cab's window"''.

-->'''Ted''': So, is it Gale?
-->'''Gael''': Gael.
-->'''Barney''': ...Kyle?
-->'''Gael''': Gael.
-->'''Marshall''': ({{beat}}) Girl?

* MsFanservice: Her BathtubScene comes to mind.

--> Please, just call me Blah.

* TeenyWeenie: Played with. Lily tries to use this as a blackmail so he would take down Marshall's video. It's then revealed Lily really has no idea, as she is just bluffing.
--> '''Lily''': Pete, this is Lily Aldrin. Gonna make this real simple. You're gonna take that video of Marshall. You know why? Because I'm friends with three girls you dated in college, and girls tell each other ''everything'', every ''tiny'' detail. So tick tock, Pete. Tick tock on the ''little wee-wee'' clock.
-->'''Ted''': He's got a little wee-wee?
-->'''Lily''': No idea. What's everyone getting?

-->''"Say what you will... at least the Naked Man is honest."''

* KavorkaMan: And he knows it.

* UrbanLegends: "The Naked Man" becomes this in universe.

* UnknownRival: To Lily.

--> '''Randy''': (In his mind) I'm fired, great. This is the [[NoodleIncident candle kiosk at the mall]] all over again. Wait a minute... I get a severance check! If I don't shred it, I can use that money to start my own brewery! Imagine a beer with my name on it! [[PunnyName Randy Wharmpess]], this is the best day of your life!

* MistakenForProstitute: Justified since Barney actually told Ted and the gang that she's a hooker. Mary was ''not'' amused.
* MsFanservice: Her hotness is exploited by Barney to make Ted think she's a prostitute.
* NiceGirl: Very polite and cheerful, and bonds with Ted after she makes a Star Wars joke. Pity he ruined it by thinking she was a hooker.

Space for special small guest characters for few episodes (one to three episodes max.). Unlike the previous page, these guest spots are for One-Note characters and don't have much weight in the story like the others. Most of them are TheCameo or the GirlOfTheWeek.
