Trivia[]

  • Pappy's deranged speech about how "all the McPoyles sprung from [his] loins fully formed" and he proceeded to eat "one of them babies" seems to allude to classical mythology, specifically the Greek myth of Kronos devouring his children before being slain by Zeus. Furthermore, his wild-eyed, disheveled appearance and beard may reference Goya's painting Saturn Devouring His Son.
