He will find it difficult to socialize with peppy villagers, who he will appear rude behind their backs to.

He will, on occasion, annoy a normal villager, usually when being mean about something or someone. When he is sick, he will insult the illness.

Roscoe's house has a modern theme, featuring many items from the modern series. In New Leaf, he has the Sleek Series. Roscoe also has two chess pieces in his room - the white knight and black knight. Knights in chess are represented by horses, a reflection of his species. "K.K. Dirge" plays in Roscoe's house. He also has a baby bear which, to some, seems out of character for a cranky villager.
