Description
Matt is Pat's foil, and as such, he is not nearly as smart or good as Pat at video games, especially when it comes to navigating. However, Matt often fucks with Pat, and frequently gets him with savvy and well-timed "your mom" jokes, although these have died down substantially.
He is a smooth ladies man who is both charismatic and charming. He is extremely patriotic towards America, despite being Canadian. In episode fifty of the Super Best Friendcast, Pat stated that Matt was stupid, to which the former agreed, making it canon, according to Pat and Woolie.
