'''Hairy''' is a [[stick figure]] character in [[xkcd]]. The name is unofficial, used by [[explain xkcd|xkcd explainers]] to describe male characters with hair and no other distinguishing features.

'''Cobson''' is a soyjak based on a character from the 1992 Sci-Fi film "The Lawnmower Man"[a][1]. Being one of the more controversial characters a clique of newchuds formed around him in 2022 which continues to spam the website everyday and even attacks Feraljak, on a regular basis, in a desperate attempt to create a debate. After months of such attacks on the website many have now turned against Cobson and he is considered to be coal by a lot of users.
 
 
Hairy is not a single character, but a categorization of various one-time characters. One Hairy, a learning pickup artist, has appeared in two comics ([[1027: Pickup Artist]] and [[1178: Pickup Artists]]).
 
 
 
When Hairy appears with [[Cueball]] or [[Black Hat]], he generally comes off as worse (as in [[1210: I'm So Random]], or as a pickup artist). Hairy can also appear just to add some variation in a group ([[1261: Shake That]]), or as a kid ([[973: MTV Generation]], [[1176: Those Not Present]]).
 
 
 
There is a very early comic ([[16: Monty Python -- Enough]]) where a hairy guy delivers the joke. There is no reason to believe this is the same Hairy that [[Randall]] invented later.
 
 
 
Hairy's name may be "Mike" as that name is used by Cueball in [[2232: Hotel Room Party]] when addressing a group that included him.
