The most unhinged post I'll ever make (tentacle hair theory)
I know the lower hair bits are probably just a style choice
And i know not every one with black hair is related (i don't count Ross, Jack, or (maybe) Frank as part of the family)
But the vaguely tentacle shaped hair (in a similar way to Skiddad) is a design detail that's way too specific
Like take one glance at the other characters and you don't really see this
Like Lila, but i think it's just she has really straight long hair, so she doesn't quite fit
Also i know a majority of the fandom isn't gonna like the Streber connection, but I'm just putting down what I'm seeing
Maybe the other times we see prominent tentacle hair bits means that some members of the family are part of the cult, and any time someones hair gets the bits when they previously, they've converted, or a family member converted
I know it's probably just his hair growing out, but still
Maybe the cult is why they're gone all the time, like they used to just be really busy, but then got involved in some way maybe
But Susie's front hair bits can't be ignored, and I'm including Pump, mainly because of the similar way i included Carmen
Like, Carmen and Roy have all the tentacle hair bits, and of course Richard as well
The only character that kinda throw this theory off is Ignacio
At first i thought mayor Evermore was a bust, but then i found this on the wiki
Not really the same kinda hair, but if i count Susie and Roy then i count this
But yeah, Ignacio does throw a wrench, because he's clearly part of the cult, but doesn't fit with my idea
But hey, that's just a theory, a crack theory-
