Biography
I've got all kinds of crazy crap! -Bubs
That's the last time I buy a used computer from Bubs. -The King of Town
Bubs is the all around fix it man. He runs his own concession stand. He's got all types o' crazy crap. With Strong Bad's help, he also like to send out weekly Spamvertisements to those foolish enough to email Strong Bad. Seems to get along fairly well with the rest of the cast, with the exception of Homsar. Bubs is a sharp salesman who will sell anything, including waiting in line, letters of his own sign, half-eaten drumsticks, even beatings. It's likely that not all of his dealings are exactly legal, considering his reaction to a practical joke from Strong Bad and Doregard.
He likes to dance.
Bubs has an alter-ego named the Thnikkaman, whose powers of distraction are legendary.
Bubs has also claimed he had the ability to fly, but lost this power after being forced to say his name backwards minus the first B. It's pretty likely that he was lying about this.
His Halloween costumes over the years have been Rerun (from What's Happening!!), Mars Blackman (from She's Gotta Have It), Captain Lou Albano, Mel (from Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore), and One of The Three Most Important People in the World (from [http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0096928/ Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure).
