Green-Eyed Monster | |
| Sweet Pickles / int_1d2400e9 | comment |
Green-Eyed Monster: Jealous Jackal really hates it when he never gets anything he wants, and Jackal Wants Everything is a perfect depiction on how he takes his anger out on anyone who he feels is much superior to him in some way. | |

Surprise Party: In Jackal Wants Everything, Jackal is upset that he never seems to get anything that he wants and spoils a party because of it. So all of the kids in the series decide to throw him a surprise party the next day; but instead of being thankful for it, he instead proves himself to be a true Jerkass, upset that they spent all that time (the time while they were planning the party) doing fun stuff without him. | |
