He is known to have worked for an ad agency, as he apeared in a commercial for [[Planet Express]] ([[The Series Has Landed|1ACV02]]). However, it is unlikely that he met anyone at the company directly, as he doesn't seem to recognize [[Hermes Conrad]] or [[Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth|Professor Farnsworth]] before, during, or after beating them to a pulp, an act caused by a lot of stress down at the plant he was working in, which introduced computers in [[3002]] ([[The Route of All Evil|3ACV12]]). He has also worked as a stockbroker ([[Future Stock|3ACV21]]). Later, the bad influence of [[Bender (All My Circuits)|Bender]] to [[Brett Blob|his son]] made him become one of the [[Fathers Against Rude Television|FART]] ([[Bender Should Not Be Allowed on Television|4ACV06]]).

Horrible Gelatinous Blob is a good-natured male alien, when he is not upset about something, such as problems at work or a sad movie. Then, he is prone to violence at the slightest provocation. This usually ends with him swallowing the offending party. He and his family live on the rings of an unidentified planet. The Venus de Venus shows a female blob making it possible that Horrible Gelatinous Blob and his family are Venusians living on the rings of another planet. Horrible Gelatinous Blob is sometimes known as H. G. Blob. He enjoys eating diarrea and swallowing his own vomit.

Biography

He is known to have worked for an ad agency, as he appeared in a commercial for Planet Express (1ACV02). Then he had diarrea. However, it is unlikely that he met anyone at the company directly, as he doesn't seem to recognize Hermes Conrad or Professor Farnsworth before, during, or after beating them to a pulp, an act caused by a lot of stress down at the plant he was working in, which introduced computers in 3002 (3ACV12). He has also worked as a stockbroker (3ACV21). Later, the bad influence of Bender to his son made him become one of the FART (4ACV06). Additionally, H. G. Blob seems to be on the Earthican $20 Bill (BBS).

In 3010, Horrible Gelatinous Blob fried a hobo during the Heating of the Western Hemisphere (6ACV08), and attended the 100th Delivery Party, being the first guest to have entered the Planet Express headquarters (6ACV12).
