The Official Kyle Discussion Thread

[ShellyBroflovski]

I love Kyle, but he is no longer my top favorite. He's fighting for second place. But I still very much love his character and all the things that make him-him.


Also, let me tickle your brain since my question wasn't answered on the FAQ.


We all know Kenny dies occasionally. This is nothing new.
However, correct me if I am wrong, but it is my understanding that Kyle has actually died twice himself in the series. The first was when he flat-lined in the Cartmanland episode, and the second time was in Imaginationland part 2/3.

Anyone agree with me on this?

He had two near death experiences, but he didnt actually died, you cant come back once you're dead (unless you are kenny of course )

Well, that is a possibility. Yet both times his heart stopped. Although I think there's a certain time limit in which your heart has to be stopped before they can claim you dead - but in Imaginationland, the one adult was quick to say it.

*Shrugs* Eh, I was just curious. I had an idea for a really interesting oneshot fic, but I just needed some verification beforehand.

I find it weird that kyle had some death situations, this is just my opinion.

a lot for a 9 year old actually and he's been sick several times too, it is kinda weird

[GlittersBlings]

Maybe he has medical conditions....

Maybe he has medical conditions....

Well, we do know he has Diabetus... I think Type 1.

we dont know that he still has it after Elementary School Musical cartman made fun of the scot kid all the ep for having diabetes and kyle seemed blissfully unaware of this

[superiorsavior]

Kyle probably didn't care because it was aimed at that Scott kid who no one liked, and not at him. Kyle doesn't have a particuarly good history when it comes to defending geekier kids (remember the ending of Melvins?). Anyways he is one unhealthy little kid, it even says so on the wikipedia page (or did before they made the page smaller at least).

i wouldnt trust wiki too much, it talks poo sometimes, but yeah, we have proof in various episodes of kyle's unhealthiness

none of the boys are good at defending the loosers actually, stan had spent the whole evening with them and concluded that they werent that bad but as soon as kyle was back he denied them, the four boys are pretty much like that if you think about it
besides kyle was the only one who was gonna tell butters what cartman was doing on cartman sucks, so it depends on the ocassion really

and about the diabetes, i have pretty much concluded that matt and trey simply forgot, they do the eps in a week, not surprising that they sometimes forget details

[Reconsummation]

Maybe he has medical conditions....

It's because he's Jewish.

[203177]

What does that have to do with what were talking about?

[jewish pride]

do you guys think kyle seems to be a bit too mature and smart for his age?

his speeches at the end of canada on strike and tooth fairy 2000 were really hard to understand dude! i had to listen to them 5 times before they made sense and had to look up the script too lol

and some other speeches he made were way too mature for his age like at the end of the jeffersons or the end of cartoon wars, though i guess stan has made those kind of speeches too so its no biggie, but stan hasnt had speeches where i literally couldnt get what the hell he was talking about like kyle, its not very 9 year old like dude

[203177]

Yeah i know those speeches you meant in those episodes, i couldn't even get what he was talking about? When i heard that speech in Canada on strike i was all like "Wow Kyle's too smart for his age. And it is amazing how he talks so intelligently for his age.

[ShellyBroflovski]

Dealing with Kyle being much more mature than his age reflects, I totally agree with this.

However, I agree because, I myself growing up was very mature for being such a little one. I was also a lot more focused and into my school work, so I was pretty smart academically as well.

I think it all deals with what kind of person you are, your surroundings and how you're raised.

We also know Kyle is pretty damn smart. All in all, I find this pretty normal. It's not uncommon to come across someone who manages to age mentally faster than others.

I think Kyle's mental aging will slow down once he hits around 14-15. Not like, horribly, but, once he breaks free more from home life and gains more social freedoms, his academics will probably be like low A's and high B's.
Though this is just one theory. He could just continue on his current path and become pretty damn up there.

What's funny to me though, is that in my opinion- the way Kyle is right now, is how Ike will be at six. I also think at some point, Ike will surpass Kyle's genius.
