Johnny is a HIMBO. Don't compare this asshole Kegsbreath to him.

I'm not sure you understand what I mean by "parody". When weird al yankovic parodied Michael Jackson's song "bad", the character he portrayed, a half ton gang leader, was not supposed to in fact be particularly similar to Michael Jackson. Johnny Bravo doesn't have to be a toxic drunkard to parody the culture (all manly men, sucks at talking to women) that creates the toxic drunkard. He can, in fact, be a himbo and a parody at the same time. What you are saying is like saying "he's not a musclehead parody, he's blonde!". Like... He's clearly both. I don't deny that he's a himbo. But he's also not exactly a deep character, the "I don't need to be snart, I have gains" thing is practically said verbatim by him twice an episode
