==Biography==
Principal Prickly is the principal of Third Street School. A former student at the school, he became a teacher out of a desire to help children and has been principal of Third Street since 1968. He is frequently angered by the children's antics, and ultimately seeks to become principal of a middle school. He has a strong rivalry with his older brother Paul, who is also a school principal. While frequently portrayed as a heartless authority figure, Prickly has been shown to have a more friendly, laid-back personality and ultimately tries to protect the student's welfare. He is also a secret fan of Senor Fusion, a comic book hero. At age 11, Principal Prickly was a troublemaker who used to climb up Thaddeus T. Third's statue.
He is also shown to be capable of self-sacrifice despite normally being quite selfish, the best example of this was when he gave up a promotion in order to save his school from the overly-cruel Slicer, who Prickly knew was going too far by publicly humiliating T.J. simply for saying goodbye and insulting Finster when she tried to defend her student from unjust abuse, while Prickly tried to brush off his return as the school-board not offering him suitable money for a promotion it was clearly done to protect his staff and students, a fact shown when he secretly smiles upon hearing the school cheer at his return.
==Appearance==
Prickly is almost always seen with a pink shirt, a green tie, gray or light brown pants, and a black or dark brown tweed suit jacket with a handkerchief in its pocket. He has balding black hair, a noticeable mustache, wrinkles, and he wears glasses just like many of the teachers at Third Street. As seen in Nobody Doesn't Like T.J., he wears a wig and is actually bald.
