About
Often known by most of the adults around them as "the boys", these four lifelong friends meet each and every morning at the same old bus stop and wait for their ride to elementary school, and whatever else is happening in the world around them. Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny may rip on each other nearly constantly, and fight pretty often, they still do almost everything together. Despite their differences, they can coordinate seamlessly and accomplish almost anything when united by a common cause, whether it's saving the town or making ten million dollars.
Though they do often hang out separately, and sometimes work together with other circles of classmates, the boys still recognize the importance of their unit of four, and made an effort to locate a permanent fourth friend when Kenny was absent. Such absences have often been filled temporarily by Butters Stotch, but the boys have never seen him as a permanent member. When Kenny was deceased, his position was filled ably by Tweek Tweak, and very briefly once, by Bebe Stevens. Though fate often draws these four apart, sometimes for months at a time, they always end up coming back together to face new challenges.
Their adventures have become at least something of local legend, known even around juvenile hall. Whether its extracting anal probes, spending the holidays with talking poo, saving their town from mechanical celebrities, going on accidental trips to Afghanistan, sending a whale home to the moon,, or just picking on Butters and limey Europeans, these four boys are always prepared to deal with the supernatural, the extraordinary, and the insane. For them, it's all part of growing up in South Park.
Memorable Quotes
Though each of the boys has their own catchphrases and quotes, sometimes they have interactions that only work as a group:
- Cartman: "Is this really what it's come down to, you guys? Whatever happened to *us*?"
- Kyle: "What do you mean?"
- Cartman: "It used to always be the four of us. Always. Now Stan's moved to a farm. I have anxiety. Kenny? Nobody really talks to Kenny. And then there's just... Kyle. We used to do everything together. What if we did this like the old days?" (Unfulfilled)
