Eggabell - "You want me to diagnose Gramble!? I'm a doctor, not a therapist."[1]
Gramble Gigglefunny is a Grumpus who is a resident of Snaxburg, and part of Elizabert Megafig's expedition. After the Grumpuses had their great falling out, Gramble set up camp in the Simmering Springs area to live with his Bugsnax.
Likes collecting things, knitting sweaters, and giving biiig hugs.
Interview notes[]
Came to Snaktooth looking to become part of a new family.
Deeply uncomfortable talking about his past.
Fled Snaxburg to keep his Snax safe from Wambus.
Swears he sees Lizbert watching him late at night.
Personality[]
Gramble is interested in Bugsnax as companions rather than food, opting to raise them as pets to try and train them instead. He has successfully trained a Strabby named Sprout to follow a laser pointer. He is also interested in breeding Snax but has not figured out how they reproduce.
He struggles with abandonment issues, telling the Journalist that he joined the expedition in search of a new family, though he refuses to discuss specifics about what happened to his old one. Gramble gets worried easily and tends to jump to conclusions, and is often testy due to his insomnia. He also refuses to consciously eat Bugsnax, unable to understand how the other Grumpuses can do so. This causes serious tension between him and Wambus, who calls him a "weepy little rancher."
Gramble also appears to be romantically interested in Wiggle, although he struggles to understand her at times and isn't sure whether she actually likes him back, or just wants his Snax.
GRAMBLE GIGGLEFUNNY You've named every stray cat within five miles. You refuse to throw away old phones because you feel bad for them. You cry the second you see somebody else cry.
Design[]
Gramble is a short pink-furred Grumpus with a cyan, gumdrop-shaped nose and cyan eyes.
His mouth is in a neutral position with a pair of big round buck teeth on his upper jaw and two smaller round teeth on either side. On his bottom jaw he has three short, round teeth, with the center one sticking up slightly.
His most iconic feature is his hat, a red beanie modeled after a Strabby but this is not his defining accessory. His defining accessory[2] is his turquoise argyle sweater vest.
He has long arms, perfect for hugging, and when walking he holds them up to his body.

Flying AND freezing cold. Thawing it might bring it down.
I tried to hug one but it gave me the cold shoulder.
This curious Snak likes to dig things out of the sand and bring them to its lair.
I've been calling it Crapple!
It follows things that it likes and nudges them with its spoon.
I can't decide whether Kweeble or Strabby is cuter!
Exactly like a Kweeble but with a distinctly golden sheen.
Different color means it's special! Catch it catch it catch it catch it!!
It rolls up and hides inside holes or logs. They'll have to be pushed out somehow...
Don't startle 'em too much, okay?
It hides inside of narrow tunnels near the Flavor Falls.
No matter how you try, you can't get blood out of a Peelbug.
The jar protects it from capture. Perhaps it can be grappled away.
I tried to hug one but it was too jarring!~
The Strabby of the beach.
*sighs* Nobody else wants to call it 'Strabbeach'...
It drills beneath the sand, waiting to unleash frosty vengeance on its foes.
The love bug!
This liquidy bug lives in the oasis and won't tolerate the presence of sauce.
We got Sodie, Peelbugs, purple stuff and...two kinds of Sodie D!

Trivia[]
After interviewing Gramble he'll give the Journalist a Diary Key.
He is a sleepwalker, giving the opportunity to feed him which he would otherwise not consent to. This comes with the achievement "Midnight Snak" trophy.
Feeding him also results into when waking up and going to Gramble, he says "Oh no, not again! Hey, um, could you help me with something? See, I've got a bad habit of walking around in my sleep. And, uh...looks like I've been eating in my sleep too. So if you see me sleepwalking, be sure to wake me up, okay?"
He knits his own clothes, as well as the blanket on his bed.
Once Gramble returns to Snaxburg, the player can donate Bugsnax to his barn instead of feeding them to other Grumpuses. Donating a certain amount of Snax will progressively expand the player's inventory space, and will reward the "In the Arms of the Gramble" trophy once it is maxed out.
He named his Kweebles Charwee, Ashwee, and Joewee. Of the three, Charwee is his favorite, described as filling the void left when Gramble gave Sprout to the Journalist.
Other Bugsnax he owned were named Manny (presumably the Preying Picantis donated by the Journalist, 'Manny' being short for 'Mantis'), Banatalie (presumably the Scoopy Banoopy donated by the Journalist, since it's a banana split), and Steve (presumably an Orange Peelbug, as this is the only other Bugsnak present when he calls out these three names).
Gramble's description of the Golden Kweeble may reference shiny Pokémon, individual monsters with a different coloration than normal. Due to their extreme rarity, shiny Pokémon are highly sought after.
While unproven, Gramble may be a trans man due to his unnacepted background and feminine attributes.
↑Eggabell claims that only therapists are supposed to diagnose mentally ill patients - this is not the case. Psychiatrists, the ones most likely to make such a diagnosis, are physicians. General practitioners (what Eggabell possibly falls under) are also technically qualified. In the US, psychotherapists are able to diagnose as part of their treatment plan, this does not count for other countries, such as France or the UK, where they would need the diagnosis of a physician. Therapists (so the general argument) are supposed to focus on the well-being and development of their patients individually, and a diagnosis is more important for prescribing medication.
↑A defining accessory is a lasting item meant to identify a character after Snakification.
↑reference to the movie The Love Bug, which focuses on a sentient car named Herbie.
↑reference to one of Sunny D's commercials "We got Soda, OJ, Purple Stuff, and 2 kinds of Sunny D!"
