animals he eats

Of course, these moments are interrupted by the arrival of the McPoyles family and an unexpected psychedelic trip, which further complicates Charlie’s plans to “relax” and “get drunk”. An overworked character just wants a break from time to time, and the breaks he gets are often disastrous.
What to do now
In one of the best episodes that takes place outside of Paddy’s, Charlie flies to California to break Wade Boggs’ incredible record of drinking more than 70 beers on a cross-country flight. Furthermore, he hit the baseball that Mac threw at him, making him the official winner of the gang’s game.

This is a related aspect of Charlie’s personality, which can also be seen when he is busy with “Charlie’s business”. He tends to take these activities too far, often affecting his own health in the process.

bird method
The illogical “Attorney Law” and “Bird Law” became synonymous with Charlie’s personality, as he used his expertise in the matter against lawyers more than once. An old meme format describing how the laws of birds “are not governed by reason” summarizes every scene Charlie practices it.
The whole joke is further proof that Charlie needs to prove to others that he’s smarter than he looks, especially when compared to someone as hostile as a lawyer. It’s unclear where Charlie’s fascination with the Law of the Birds came from, but it was very useful in an actual trial.
the box is full of them
Even people who haven’t watched the sitcom may recognize the Pepe Silvia meme, which shows Charlie at the height of his conspiracy theories about people who don’t exist. This is where Charlie finds himself after trying to keep a regular job in the mailroom, but quickly becomes obsessed with the thought that the company he works for is full of ghost employees.
Most likely, Charlie doesn’t know what he’s doing, but it looks like he’s walking down a rabbit hole, making strange connections between events and objects. His wild look at the time convinced Mac that they’d had enough work there and it was good that they left so quickly.
where men cry
