Zippy is an ass

Is it just me or is Zippy an asshole? He was always putting people down and he whined like a little bitch all the frickin time (for those of you who don't know, that's him on the left, and the program was Rainbow, just so your not thinking that I'm talking about someone I know, but if they were anything like this guy they'd sharp know about it). He even had an air of superiority every time he said hello.

I really can't figure out how George (the one on the left) put up with him for so long. They're just two totally different types of people. Talking about George, was it a he or a she? Maybe it was the pink that confused me as a child, but if it's a guy then boy is he the campest puppet of all time? I'm starting to figure how I had such a messed up childhood. Thanks cockbites.
