Larry Needlemeyer



Laurence Needlemeyer (also known as Larry, as Gumball and Nicole call him) is a supporting character in The Amazing World of Gumball. He works at almost every store in the town of Elmore. Laurence is not fooled easily and despises The Wattersons, but the Wattersons don't like him, either. His first apperance was in the first episode The DVD, at Laser Video. He appeared in The End in a cameo, as the cashier in the supermarket. He also appeared in The Spoon as a cashier at the gas station. This was the first episode in which he had been robbed from in the show. He seems to be working at most of the stores right now. He is also a coward, as shown in The Spoon, when he knocked himself out while freaking out that he was being robbed by a Robber and was a victim of the criminal, then appeared in The Laziest, where he lost his job, his car, and his girlfriend because of Gumball and Darwin's begging of him to beat their dad in a laziness competition. He also appeared in The Ghost for a small appearance as a cashier at the fast food resturant called Joyful Burger when Carrie possessed Gumball so she can eat. He is voiced by Rupert Degas.

Appearance
Laurence's appearance is hard to describe. He wears a greenish shirt, an orange tie, and an orange/white hat. He is made out of rock. His head appears to be a rock. Though he said Richard he's lazier than a rock meaning he's concrete.

Personality
He appears somewhat irritated by people, but he is shown to be happy in one episode. He is scared very easily and may be dim-witted due to thinking a spoon was going to hurt him. He was once the laziest person in Elmore until the summer of 1983, until he lost his title to Richard Watterson.
