People who think cartoon characters have to be sweet and nice just don't get it. Disney's cartoon characters are less mature and complex than those of Warner Brothers (eg Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck), but Donald Duck is an exception. We all may dislike his temper, but we tolerate and love him anyway because of his crazy schemes that remind us of someone we know (perhaps that odd uncle) or maybe even ourselves. Moreover, there just seems to be something about ducks that captures the human imagination.
