I really
matadore T-Bone, because blue is my favorite color, cranky is my favorite personality type, and bulls are my favorite species in the game, and also, one of my favorite animals in real life. In fact, he is the reason why I am a fan of the bull and cow villagers. There are also a lot of other reasons why I love him:
His birthday happens to be the same day people unofficially celebrate Valentine's Day in China, because the date, May 20th, corresponds to the Chinese slang number, "520 (wǔ'èr líng)", which sounds similar to, "我爱你 (wǒ ài nǐ)", meaning, "I love you", in Chinese.
According to Nookipedia, his catchphrase in the Japanese games is, "だっぺ (dappe)".
It sounds similar to the word, "dapper", and I think T-Bone looks very dapper and sophisticated.
His picture quote reads: "Don't have a cow.", which happens to be one of Bart Simpson's catchphrases, and I am a fan of The Simpsons.
T-Bone's picture quote makes it sound like he's genuinely worried about me at times, and that he really cares about me.
I also think his catchphrase is adorable as well.
"Moocher", it sounds kind of like, "smooch". He's so adorable, I could hug and smooch him 'til the cows come home!
His thought bubble when requesting a specific home in Happy Home Paradise also makes him sound poetic, as well!
"I want a home that'll set my soul on fire."
I believe T-Bone's coffee preferences are Kilimanjaro beans, no amount of milk, and no amount of sugar, because he's already sweet without sugar.
He had the lazy personality in Population Growing, which means he would be a lot nicer to me, and use less insults, in contrast with the cranky personality. I like to think that the lazy villager insults would just be childlike, and they act more like they're just teasing the player, compared to the cranky villagers, where the insults are straight-up harsh, and much more serious.
Even his promotional artwork has him posing like a real knight in shining armor! ❤
These are all the reasons why I love T-Bone, I even declare him as my, "boyfriend", in the game, too.
It's sad to see him always in the very bottom of the tier forever, but everyone has their reasons.
He's always at the very top in the highest tier in my heart. ❤
