Do not fill this in!==Arch Rival== While all four boys have been through adventures over the years and share similar goals of wealth and popularity, there is no weaker link between the four than the often intense rivalry between Cartman and Kyle. While the latter sees himself as more moral and philosophical, often trying to take the safest and most logical route, the notoriously stubborn and selfish Cartman will take what he wants by any means necessary, a common source of conflict between the two. Though they have been shown on rare yet notable occasions to be on civil terms, Cartman often shows an extremely sadistic and hateful side towards Kyle and will stop at nothing to humiliate him, and Kyle in turn often sees humiliating Cartman as morally justifiable, particularly given his anti-semitism. The two have also been known to make bets with full intent of humiliating one another, such as the loser having to pay a sum of money, being each other's slave or on one famous occasion, suck the winner's balls. Cartman in particular takes extreme pleasure in Kyle's suffering- going as far as to break him in [[Ginger Cow]] and even [[Fat Butt and Pancake Head|fantasizing about his tears]], oddly enough. Cartman himself has shown a disturbing lack of care for Kyle's wellbeing as well; whether it be [[HUMANCENTiPAD|laughing at his bodily mutation from a certain apple company]], or [[Funnybot|offering him up to a room of very angry Germans]]. Cartman and Kyle have come to blows on multiple occasions, mostly notably after Cartman and Butters broke into the [[Broflovski Residence]] to infect Kyle with the HIV virus, when they had to be broken up by [[Mr. Mackey]], as well as the FOX headquarters when they came into conflict over a controversial ''Family Guy'' episode, and after [[Kenny McCormick]]'s death and funeral, when Cartman used stem cells to create a new Shakey's Pizza. Despite hatred, when the two boys can set their differences aside, and a common goal is clear in sight, Cartman and Kyle can make incredibly strong allies, although this always seems to disband one way or another. They do have some common interests they do not share with Stan and Kenny in the same fashion, such as Faith Hilling and the Xbox One, and also share a particular shared business talent that is displayed both in their time together working at the Crack Baby Athletic Association and during their time at the Washington Redskins start-up company, where they even lead a high-profile press conference together. They maintain a surprising degree of tolerance for one another, with Kyle in particular continuing to feel sympathy for Cartman and his moments of plight despite their problems, and Cartman recognizing Kyle's assets for various schemes, allowing no bathroom break stop him. Another thing to note is Cartman's obsessive hatred with Kyle. Although hating his opponent dearly, when faced with the possibility of loosing him permanently from the [[Smug Alert|horrors of San Francisco]], he's willing to save him to avoid boredom and have an entertaining rival to torment once more. Kyle himself is willing to save Cartman as well, although for significantly less selfish reasons. Although loathing him with all his heart, Kyle is willing to compromise it all in order to see Cartman do the right thing once in his life- although he may be too optimistic in that regard. Rumors of a relationship have been spurred by Cartman on occasion but have never been endorsed by Kyle in any way, shape or form. {{Character list | Name = Kyle Broflovski | Image = http://southparkstudios.mtvnimages.com/shared/characters/kids/kyle-broflovski.png }} Summary: Please note that all contributions to South Park Wiki may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
