This is Humphey.
He is an anti-social, mean and often depressing grumpy bug.
Nothing is ever his fault because he rarely gets involved in anything (although, he will gladly rain on anyone’s parade, given the opportunity). He is the most misanthropic character in the vegetable patch, if not the world, and certainly did not want to appear on this website.
“Bah, Humbug! What a waste of time.”
