Zim with the Happy Shloogorgh costume.
Happy Shloogorgh is the official mascot of the Shloogorgh's Flavor Monster restaurant on Foodcourtia. As part of his forced employment there, Zim is made to wear a costume of him by Sizz-Lorr and entertain the customers.
Depiction[]
As the mascot of Shloogorgh's Flavor Monster, the character can be seen throughout the restaurant, with the upper portion of the building itself being shaped like him. His face is featured on several signs throughout the restaurant, including above the front counter, as well as on the employee uniform, where a wearable version of his head is worn on the employee's chest, with the apron under it; the head has some greasy substance inside that often spills onto the apron as the wearer moves.
However, the best known depiction is the mascot costume employees can be made to wear to entertain customers, most famously when Sizz-Lorr instructed Zim to wear it. When Zim pointed out that it's full of white-hot grease at the time, Sizz-Lorr merely replied that it made him "dance better"; it's unclear whether this is normal, or if Sizz-Lorr added this just to torment Zim further. However, the grease itself may be normal, as it is in keeping with other depictions of Happy Shloogorgh seen around the restaurant.
Appearance[]
Happy Shloogorgh is a bipedal creature with mint green skin, a chubby face and body, but thin arms and legs. The costume depicts him wearing a burgundy hat with an S matching the first letter of the restaurant's sign, as well as an ill-fitting burgundy top. He has primarily white, bulging eyes with a red iris/pupil (the right eye is always protruding further than the left), visible nostrils, and crooked teeth. In all of his depictions, he is given puffy cheeks with something in his mouth to give the illusion that he is vomiting.
