Ralph has a real sore spot for any mention of Zidan, even though they’ve never publicly had a falling out.
Let me explain. You see, Ralph has very complex feelings for the Bhutanese Butcher. Any time someone mentions Zidan publicly, it subtly invites the audience to compare Ralph to Zidan. Ralph is uniquely insecure about this comparison, because Zidan was (and is) so much more popular. For Ralph, it’s kind of like having a girlfriend who is still friends with her more popular, better-looking, well-hung Chad ex-boyfriend (in this analogy, Ralph’s audience is the “girlfriend,” and Zidan is the “ex-boyfriend”). Ralph tries to appear cordial with Zidan, but deep down, Ralph knows that his audience prefers Zidan. This bothers Ralph on a deeper level.
