* Like a lot of everyday kid problems, ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'' loves to feature these and exaggerate them to insane levels. In "Operation Z.O.O." a school bully that is supposedly a [[ImAHumanitarian cannibal]] appears as one of the caged exhibits; in "Operation: M.A.T.A.D.O.R.", there are bullies trapping adults and driving them into a rage with coffee to fight bullfight style; and "Operation: B.U.L.L.I.E.S." depicts bullies as dinosaur-like creatures living on a ''Film/JurassicPark''-like facility.

Additionally, he's usually reluctant to punch someone, even when asked to do it.
