Purple Starfish Mailman

From The Extended Group

The Purple Starfish Mailman, aka The Starfish Mailman, is a fictitious childhood character created by Kevin, said to accompany the Cho brothers on various adventures, much to the suspicion of both Jane Cho and Paul Cho. The character himself is a metaphor for the important role that video games played in shaping the Cho brothers adolescence, specifically Nintendo games (See Cho family being adorable)

Controversy

In 2004, a computer-generated image of the Starfish Mailman was found on a blog belonging to Elias, which directed readers to "check out" his interpretation of the popular character. Kevin's assailing of the image was likened at the time to the principals of early Islamic art, which forbids the depiction of any of Allah's creation. Further controversy developed when Gavin would make repeated demands for more stories of the Starfish Mailman to an exasperated Kevin (see Sarge).
