Mike is a simple chap. He loves hamburgers and french fries, or fish sticks and french fries, or just french fries. And really, french fries to him are just an excuse to eat ketchup. He is easily angered when behind the wheel of a car, but is otherwise docile and good-natured in a profane sort of way. Mike is uncomfortable in clothes, but even less comfortable without them, and is rarely seen in any shoe that isn't a sneaker.
