This whole section slays me, from the tartan leggings to the name to the PSA. I'm half-tempted to pull an old artbook out just to do a color version of the beast. I can just imagine people who've never met Short trying to pronounce his Monster's name... "On-gas Mac-nag-nag?" Short can then point out why it's bad to upset someone who commands a Monster.
