The main character. Works at Cheap-Mart, and is a guitarist and lead singer in his own band, STD. He's crude, horny, the only one of the guys who's good with the ladies, he drinks, chain-smokes, swears . . . he's just cool.



The big nerd. He's a goober! A goober, I tell ya!Gerry Thomas:
The nerd. The great big nerd. Shy, insecure, wears glasses so thick you can't even see through 'em. Basically, the kid you beat up in grade school. He lives with Wes and Darren.



Look at him, waving his hands around like that. Is he dancing, or surfing? It is a mystery. Phil Gibson:

The new roommate. He's . . . well, he's fat. And sort of jolly, I guess. Jolly fat guy. Yeah.



You got a problem wit' dat? Bernard Goldman:

That's right. Aww yeah . . . Darren Perry:

FIRE! WATER! BUUUUUURN! Gnat:
Lead guitarist in Wes' band. Pot-head. Makes his own drug blends. Hyperactive. Has ADD. Embodies just about every irresponsible impulse there is. Thinks of only three things: music, gettin' high, and the women.
