Squim's desire to be nothing but positive no matter how inappropriate has a disturbing layer of toxic positivity. He not only lacks self-awareness in how horrible he comes across in telling people their sad feelings are essentially worthless and that being happy is the only way to live, he is also significantly lacking in empathy towards other people's genuine feelings. He also drives Mr. Ice Cream to tears after insulting his wife's memory with an unsettling dance that is unnerving due to Squim's sociopathy. He also endangers several people in trying to "help" them. It's little wonder the Boss had to retire him because of how harmful his antics were to the Smiling business.
