Why he might be annoying:

    He was sometimes billed as ‘Pansy.'
    The circle around his left eye was partially painted on (three quarters of it was real, though).
    There is a bizarre urban legend that he shares a grave with Carl ‘Alfalfa' Switzer.
    He is often confused with the many Petes that replaced him after his death, including his son.
    He has become a poster boy for pit bull advocates.

    Although best known for the ‘Our Gang' shorts, he also appeared in several ‘Buster Brown' films.
    He co-starred with Stan Laurel in ‘Dr. Pyckle and Mr. Pryde.'
