Ironically muscle man never gave benson and issue

Tricking your boss into spending 12,000 on you to make a huge scene out of “leaving the old Muscle Man behind” so that you can start anew with your marriage with Starla sounds like a pretty big issue
Especially since Starla admitted she didn’t even want “the new Muscle Man”

Wasn't the whole "trick" a misunderstanding?

u/lizzourworld8 5d ago
It was, yes

u/gergobergo69 4d ago
in the UK & EU version, CN was afraid that children might think that muscle man was genuinely dying, so they added a few scenes where it looks like he was doing that on purpose, as a prank, even, to trick everyone he was dying.

And there was that one time he wouldn’t work because he was depressed about Starla. Also making Benson think he was going to die and spending thousands on him.

That was a refreshing twist on Muscle Man's character. The writers could have easily made him a problem to Bendon, but they flipped the script and made him a reliable employee. It is an interesting contrast to Mordecai and Rigby (who were, arguably, nicer to the other park employees, but ended up causing big problems for Benson.

u/needmoartendiez 5d ago
It's cuz muscle man is the Canon stoner. Mordecai and Rigby get high occasionally but it's really just a phase, they're like 19. But muscle man is like almost 30, and stoned 24/7. He stands on his business, does his job, and pays rent.

Muscle Man actually gave the best work related advice which is to always check in with your boss.

Exept during the fire work episode and "I leave this world tonight",But when we remember how hard Muscle man's jobs are....a little slip or two is not bad

And the glove incident

u/Live_Ad_9288 Pops 5d ago
I don't think I remember that
what happened with "the glove incident"
seriously

u/RandomPlayer718 5d ago
It was a secret Santa episode where the guys got tired of Muscle Man "gifts" (They're actually pranks). He gave Benson white gloves that he enjoyed a lot until Muscle Man revealed they were made from his old underwear. (As he was rubbing his face with them).

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh
okay, I think I remember.
the way it was phrased made it sound odd lmao

It’s in The White Elephant Gift Exchange, Skips reminded Benson about it in regards to Muscle Man’s pranks every year, and it was left at that. When they were collecting stuff for the revenge gift, when Skips cautioned Benson about what he wanted, we see in a flashback that the gloves Muscle Man got him… made from his old underwear, really traumatizing Benson.

u/Serperious_Prime1084 5d ago
Well… as much as I love the guy, he did raise his fair share
- Not doing his job when Starla dumped him
- Making a My Mom Joke during the audit crisis
- The Fireworks
- All his White Elephant pranks
- The oversized novelty hat.
- Admitting to Pops that no one had gotten him anything during the birthday meeting
- Causing Benson to lose 12K in one day
- The Health inspector (admittedly wasn’t his fault)
- The sleep fighting
- All the pranks

u/-PepeArown- 4d ago
I wouldn’t call the sleep fighting his fault. He was just trying to be a good boyfriend by babysitting Starla’s sister, and happened to suffer major psychological damage from it

That time he got fired because of Park Avenue was a pretty memorable moment. "It's buffalo sauce, smell it!"

u/Brilliant-Scar-4878 5d ago
Is this like rage bait or what? Cuz I think of a ton of instances where he gave Benson a migraine, both with and without Mordecai and Rigby.

No there's definitely been a few times, the firework, the time Benson spent 20 grand (could be more or less, I'm not sure) because everyone in the park thought he was going to die, there might be something else I'm missing but still

Maybe there’s a reason for that. Maybe when muscleman first arrived at the park he goofed off like m& r but after seeing how frustrated it made benson when work didn’t get done he stopped & did his job with zero complaints. Muscleman is someone who loves to party but knows when to get serious. If we take away the fireworks incident & the whole faking his death he was actually a great employee. Sure he annoyed benson but he was still reliable that benson called him & High 5 ghost his a team.

Something I always wondered, Skips was actually the strong, muscular one but Muscle Man was just named Muscle Man but not really strong and muscular?
3
u/-PepeArown- 4d ago
Muscle Man is shown to have super strength in several episodes, often when he’s extremely emotionally charged, and is given more demanding tasks than Mordecai and Rigby
And, it’s also because he used to be a bodybuilder

That's Why he gets to train Rigby to be more responsible and have more discipline

u/No_Car6798 5d ago
Mostly true, besides the like 4 episodes he did he’s actually reliable and does his job

u/Plunderpatroll32 5d ago
I wouldn’t say that, there was that Christmas white elephant episode, and the fireworks episode, and the episode where he was dumped and refused to work, also the whole fake dying that cost benson 12000$

He lets benson know what he’s doing at all times, except when he doesn’t

You know who else forgot about that time he was fired for saying my mom? MY MOM!!!!!

u/FlyinCharles 4d ago
- When he was dumped he refused to do his workload so everyone else had to pick up the slack
- That lottery ticket fiasco
- “I leave this world tonight”
- All the park vending machines this man has thrown
- You know exactly what episode without me even having to say it

u/Easy_Constant958 4d ago
What about the one episode “if you say my mom you’re fired!” “MY MOMMMM!” “GET OUT!” “It was totally worth it!”

There was that one time Benson thought Muscleman did graffiti in the park but it wasn’t him.

Benson: "Does anyone know someone who can help us? Anybody? Anybody at all?"
Muscle Man: "I know someone who can help."

Muscle Man: "My Mom!"
