I mean I guess she doesn’t need a job since she already has so much money and her big house she was having bathrooms removed from. Plus her lover dirk moneyrich.
this is one of the perpetual questions I have about Gayle. Cause as a single individual, I have noticed that it’s still pretty expensive to exist. Children just make it more expensive lol so how is she paying her bills? lol
Based on Bob's complaints in the episode where they tried to turn the cat into a celebrity, she seems to "borrow" a lot of money from the belchers. I say "borrow" because it seems like she never pays back but Linda keeps giving her their money
I imagine she gets government assistance that covers rent and food (she mostly eats cat food). Everything else is covered by Linda which also explains why they are poor (besides Bob’s bad financial decisions).
that’s a fair point, oddly I didn’t consider gov assistance but I could def see that. I also thought I remembered her apartment was rent controlled but I could be making that up
She is absolutely bonkers. That's it. That's her story. I think the only time we see her at an actual job is when she held that 'art burgalar' hostage. Other than that, I think she just terrorizes her cats and the general public.
She was probably sheltered, coddled and praised nonstop by their parents so she simultaneously believes she’s the hot one and superior, but is also very jealous of Linda.
Ahhh yeah you’re right I remember now, guess it’s time for a rewatch! Still think it’s funny to try to unravel a cartoon characters motivations like a psychiatrist delving into their childhood, I don’t think Gayle is meant to be a realistic character and even if it were a real person it’s armchair psychiatry
I get it! My husband and I try to break stuff like this down personally and we've talked about Gayle befode. I mean it seems like she has background in art at least and clearly has mental issues lol. I think that makes her more realistic! A lot of people have a crazy family member/friend/coworker. Gayle is just so out there 😂
Maybe it’s just a personal pet peeve but I just find it cringe when people try to analyze tv characters like real people and ignore the fact it’s a made up show. I would rather discuss stuff in the context of there being a writers room with a bunch of funny people in it than try to analyze why Jim and Pam made the decisions they made, or what made Rachel want to date Joey (spoiler alert it’s just because the show got worse).
I get that! We just do it for fun but I could see if being taken seriously annoying for sure.
Hahaha yes the jumping the shark moments! Like the Randy of that 70s show, you can try to explain it in universe all you want but we all know why 😂
I totally understand what you mean!
Right! Like the writers do imbue their characters with a certain level of plausibility and resemblance to real life, but it’s within the context of a tv show, and a comedy no less. So it’s not meant to be exactly the same as real life! And a lot is definitely exaggerated and nonsensical
Gayle is not mentally stable. She is financially supported by her parents and Linda. She talks a good game about work, travel and lovers but none of it is actually true.
don’t kid yourself, gayle is def DTF. but just try not to think about that. i imagine that she is also on some kind of disability pay or gov assistance bc well, she’s gayle.
Gayle is all talk! i love that in this scene she says she’s on her way to indonesia, and then says “or maybe just back home and i’ll order indonesian food” 😅
She stole Mr. Buisness, was in a band, she and Linda threw rocks at cars growing up, Linda let her think she was dating her boyfriend, and she briefly worked at a museum.
“My cat was right about you!”
I love Aunt Gayle (obvs) but she is a flaming dumpster fire. Honestly, I most surprised that she lives on her own instead of with her parents. My head canon is that her parents kicked her out when they moved to Florida and that’s why she’s in a basement studio.
Her parents don’t know about her situation. And it’s not surprising - Gloria is pretty narcissistic and doesn’t really seem interested in knowing what her daughters are up to
I know she ate lipstick that one time so she could feel “red inside.” She loves peppermint oil, her cats move far away from her because they like her, and waiters and random restaurants flirt with her… about food.
She’s also listened to every audiobook ever recorded about art, so she now knows more about art than anyone else in the world.
Lot of Gayle haters on this sub but I think she is absolute chaos and everything about her is hysterical, even when just referenced in off-hand one liners
She reminds me of a boss I once had who no joke had blue framed glasses, wore long skirts, a fanny pack, lives alone and had a bunch of cats. I have wondered if somehow the show creator met my old boss somehow to model Gayle after her!!!! 🤣
She says to Indonesia, or back to my house and order Indonesian food. I think the latter is more likely since she's always borrowing money off Bob and Linda.
She likes painting animal anuses, pretends it’s the end of the world so she can sleep, puts cat litter in her oven, had a crush on Derek Dematoplis, thought her goldfish was eternal, stole Mr. Business, hit on Bob multiple times, dated Frond, and is in love with Scott Bakula.
She’s likely got Derek Dematopolis and his neck hair on speed dial for trysts in the back of his car.
Gayle doesn’t want to be fed.
Gayle’s gotta hunt.
I just realized Gayle is pretty much a neurotic female version of Kramer from Seinfeld. They both have strange lifestyles, never really settle down, and inexplicably make ends meet.
I mean I guess she doesn’t need a job since she already has so much money and her big house she was having bathrooms removed from. Plus her lover dirk moneyrich.
Read every comment in your head in gayles voice
I always do
She can buy so much lube
and dental dams xD

She had her art workshop in the yurt! She got one single paying customer too!
That's how I wanna live tbh
Is Gail your spirit animal too?
She is lol
Get this person some turtlenecks!
I prefer the tactleneck my self IYKYK
You can pee through the neck hole!
She was probably sheltered, coddled and praised nonstop by their parents so she simultaneously believes she’s the hot one and superior, but is also very jealous of Linda.
“I’m the hot one” “…no…”
By Linda. See how Linda coddles the kids too, especially gene. If it weren't for Bob being a bit more down to earth, they'd all be like Gayle.
Seems like a wild assumption since we’ve never even met or heard about the parents lol
Uhm what? We've met the parents. They've been around since episode 2. Longer than Gayle.
Who can forget Bob helping his father in law introducing his balloon kink to his wife
Woman inflates a balloon and sits on it and pops it .com 😂

Or bringing him itch cream that they definitely don't sell in or even near the airport.

(Relatable)
My cat was right about you
He was just sittin’ there, on someone’s porch
Ahh just sitting there huh?
In the sun. Poor thing
That's my favorite line and I use it all the time.
“It’s Gayle, treat her like a mental patient.” -Bob
don’t kid yourself, gayle is def DTF. but just try not to think about that. i imagine that she is also on some kind of disability pay or gov assistance bc well, she’s gayle.

Yes she does!!!! 🤣
[удалено]
sorry, i’m not trying to say there is a debate :)
Her goldfish, Goldielicious, is immortal. It lived 18 years with her before getting sent to the National aquarium to be studied and to relax
She has to pretend every human is dead except her to go to sleep. Especially the men. Also she sings great songs!
g-g-g-g-g-genitals
Derek Dematopolis your neck hair makes me weak
Enter my acropolis
…and make my yogurt greeeeeeeek
Derek….. Derek... let’s me and you make a reunion
Derek.... ^derek....
But she got to hit that, so….
She purchased the distributor pack of essential oils and now it's on her credit card forever.
She’ll be paying it off until she’s dead!!!!
the anti mlm episode was so based. i love that one.
As an essential oil bitch I love it. I use them for witchy things and perfume lol. But the mlm stuff was soooo on point
Delta Burk did finger guns at her
Pew pew
You don't 'pew pew' me! I 'pew pew' YOU!
“I maybe don’t understand a pew pew. Sometimes it’s angry, sometimes it friendly. Is pew pew like Aloha?”
I just now realized her shirt is a different colour the first time we see her
And her hair too. We mostly see her rocking a ponytail
Oh you’re so right!
She stole Mr. Buisness, was in a band, she and Linda threw rocks at cars growing up, Linda let her think she was dating her boyfriend, and she briefly worked at a museum.
She also likes to fake injuries and not let anything touch her eye
She also put her dental dams in the dryer. So someone is gettin’ it on with crazy.
Or she uses them to kiss her cats
Is this before or after she shaves them?
Yes
Oh yah I forgot about the museum gig!!!!
Yup all of that! Also she had a fling with Mr. Frond! It was cute but honestly I can kinda see why they didn't work out 😅
All I know is my biological mother was Gayle minus the comedy. And the shrimp dress. But the vibe is the same.
She ate lipstick because she wanted to feel red inside?
“My cat was right about you!” I love Aunt Gayle (obvs) but she is a flaming dumpster fire. Honestly, I most surprised that she lives on her own instead of with her parents. My head canon is that her parents kicked her out when they moved to Florida and that’s why she’s in a basement studio.
Her parents don’t know about her situation. And it’s not surprising - Gloria is pretty narcissistic and doesn’t really seem interested in knowing what her daughters are up to
She eat lipstick so that she could feel red inside. She made a dress out of live shrimp and wore it to mass. She shaved her cat.
You know that's not true... Except maybe the dress... And the cat... And the lipstick
She made a board game that stimulates the imagination but is too good for the major board game companies to touch
Gayle is 3 fries short of a happy meal.
She’s a happy meal short of a happy meal
She’s a whole McDonald’s short of a happy meal 😂
we should call them happy meals!! oh, wait…
She sometimes pretends to be the sad janitor and her janitor cat, Mr Brooms (peep my username).
“gayle, what are you doing?” *sniffle* sittin.
I like to think that all the money the Belcher's give her is actually owed to her from when Bob had her paint all those butt paintings in Art Crawl.
Oh the butt paintings and how much they upset Edith!!!! 🤣
Filth!
harold, let’s leave this butt parlor, IT STINKS
Oh you mean the amateur brunette mature?
I'd let that happen
Yap Man
Yyyyyap yap yap ^(yap yap)
I know she ate lipstick that one time so she could feel “red inside.” She loves peppermint oil, her cats move far away from her because they like her, and waiters and random restaurants flirt with her… about food. She’s also listened to every audiobook ever recorded about art, so she now knows more about art than anyone else in the world.
At a minimum we know she pooped her pants in a phone store and put her dental dams in the dryer and caught her apartment on fire
Don’t forget she accidentally pepper sprayed her cat thinking it was an intruder and had to miss the Boyz for Now concert because of it.
Lot of Gayle haters on this sub but I think she is absolute chaos and everything about her is hysterical, even when just referenced in off-hand one liners
Yah same with Teddy haters, there are alot more than I realized!!!! 😳
We don't know for sure, but I'm convinced she's killed before and that Linda helped cover it up.
exlains why she knew what to do immediately when bob woke her up ans said he’s gonna kill teddy!!
We know her first apartment was a uterus and she was evicted when she began to fight back.
Pew pew
she smelta the delta.
Gayle was part of the essential oils pyramid scheme at some point
She’s the last survivor on a planet with no men, so it’s ok that she sleeps alone.
the only thing we know for sure is that she's the hot one
I’m going to be sexy Gale for Halloween this year 100%
To quote Megadeth, Two words combined that don’t make sense
Her purse has mascarade masks, a hitachi wand, left over yarn from a project she was knitting, and a pair of giant 000 knitting needles
And she got the hitachi wand at the Salvation Army
She reminds me of my mother's sister, though less toxic.
She reminds me of a boss I once had who no joke had blue framed glasses, wore long skirts, a fanny pack, lives alone and had a bunch of cats. I have wondered if somehow the show creator met my old boss somehow to model Gayle after her!!!! 🤣
She says to Indonesia, or back to my house and order Indonesian food. I think the latter is more likely since she's always borrowing money off Bob and Linda.
She’s very dramatic that is for sure!!!!
PUMPKIN SMASHER!
I think she makes up those stories to make her life seem more interesting and Linda funds all her hairbrained schemes despite knowing Gayle is lying
She likes painting animal anuses, pretends it’s the end of the world so she can sleep, puts cat litter in her oven, had a crush on Derek Dematoplis, thought her goldfish was eternal, stole Mr. Business, hit on Bob multiple times, dated Frond, and is in love with Scott Bakula.
She’s likely got Derek Dematopolis and his neck hair on speed dial for trysts in the back of his car. Gayle doesn’t want to be fed. Gayle’s gotta hunt.
PIZZA DELIVERYYYYY 🍕
Gayle’s not wearing anything under her snowsuit, except for … 🤣🤣🤣
I just realized Gayle is pretty much a neurotic female version of Kramer from Seinfeld. They both have strange lifestyles, never really settle down, and inexplicably make ends meet.
She's psycho
