Mchale's funny. But he can sure put the 'prick' in prickly on The Soup. That made him a perfect match for this skit.

However, no mention of the hair? Whatever gave it that spiky appearance in that clip could be considered prickly too. If the porcupine mistook it for family he might have tried to hug his face.

Jeff Winger acts sort of prickly.

[HoshiHikari]

What about his prickly stubble?

Cactuses is also acceptable.

OK sesame street does not know how to plural words, its CACTI not cactuses...

I've only seen Joel in Community and Ted. I've noticed he's being casted as a prick.

I find it hilarious that he's explaining this word.
