'''Jonesy Garcia''' ([[French language|French]]: '''Raoul Costa'''/'''Costa Rica''') is a [[fictional character]] in the [[Animation|animated]] [[Canada|Canadian]] [[Situational comedy|sitcom]] ''[[6teen]]'', voiced by [[Terry McGurrin]].

One of the series' main cast members, Jonesy is a tall, good-looking, womanizing teenager. His relationship with [[Nikki Wong]] is central to the ongoing plot surrounding their characters, and his inability to maintain a job for more than a single episode is one of the program's [[running gag]]s.

==Biography==
Already a part of his circle of friends in the episode "Take this Job and Squeeze It," Jonesy is introduced in ''6teen'' as a slacker, born into a family with two younger brothers and the prospect of taking on additional siblings from his father's relationship with [[Jen Masterson]]'s mother. He is the star player for his high school [[hockey]] team.<ref>''[[6teen]]''. "Mr. Nice Guy". February 27, 2005.</ref>

Jonesy is obsessed with women. His constant schemes to win girls over with his charm, as well as the pranks and other acts of mischief that he participates in with his best friend [[Jude Lizowski]], have placed him on the mall's Most Wanted list. Jonesy has flirted with most of the women he deems attractive, but his actions usually land him with rejection and trouble. Notable instances include his relationship with Amelie, a French exchange student who worked alongside him at an ice cream parlor and dumped him after he threatened to throw his brother in the mall fountain, as well as Lydia, a girl who refused to leave his side.

Jonesy loves [[Nikki Wong]], and has wanted to date her since he was 14-years-old.<ref>''[[6teen]]''. "Unhappy Anniversary". December 7, 2005.</ref> Following their first almost kiss in "Clonesy," they date for approximately three months during the second season until a series of events pushes Nikki to believe that if they should continue seeing each other, they will end up losing their friendship forever. As a result, she convinces Jonesy to break up. Jonesy falls back into his old womanizing habits, however, while Nikki falls into a cycle of resentment and guilt. Ultimately, both admit their feelings for one another in "Snow Job," and commit to a serious relationship, and they have been dating through all of Season 3 (and will continue to date in Season 4).

Jonesy wears a brown shirt with light blue jeans his trademark bead necklace and brown shoes. His hair is naturally black but dyed a deep blue.

Jonesy has never been able to hold a steady job in the Galleria Shopping Mall. He has been employed at most of the recurring locations on ''6teen'', in addition to many other stores and restaurants mentioned off-screen, but is always fired by the end of an episode in which he starts working, with the exception of "A Ding from Down Under," when he quits of his own accord. Nonetheless, he believes that the experiences attained from such a wide variety of workplaces make him more desirable as a laborer, rendering his [[résumé]] "colorful".<ref>''[[6teen]]''. "Jonesy's Low Mojo". February 19, 2006.</ref> Jonesy had intended to get a job at the Gigantoplex, but was refused due to a bad interview.

==Personality==
Jonesy is lazy (even lazier than Wayne), smug, and persistent. He enjoys [[sport]]s, chasing after beautiful women, and formulating [[get-rich-quick scheme]]s, but is also prone to deviousness, arrogance, [[selfishness]], [[misogyny|male chauvinism]], and [[dishonesty]], though he cares deeply for his friends and puts their needs before his own.<ref>''[[6teen]]''. "A Lime to Party". November 28, 2004.</ref> This implies that he is nowhere near as selfish as Tricia. Rather impressionable, he is easily fooled, like when his friends scared him out of [[skydiving]] with their stories of jumps gone awry.<ref>''[[6teen]]''. "The Five Finger Discount". December 19, 2004.</ref> Jonesy also thinks that he can speak [[Spanish language|Spanish]] fluently, although his Spanish is poor according to Nikki<ref>''[[6teen]]''. "Cheapskates". April 15, 2008.</ref> and thinks that 47 is the answer to everything.<ref>''[[6teen]]''. "J For Genius". July 5, 2008.</ref> It is implied that 47 is Jonesy's lucky number. Despite his headstrong personality, Jonesy has numerous insecurities. He has a mild case of [[claustrophobia]], a fact he does not readily admit because he thinks it tarnishes his tough guy image, and a [[blood phobia|fear of blood]] stemming from the childhood trauma of having a [[epistaxis|nosebleed]] that failed to stop.<ref>''[[6teen]]''. "Waiting to Ex-Sale". January 8, 2006.</ref> This caused him to pass out while he gave blood. The latter does not, however, seem to prevent him from watching gory movies. The only person able to remotely calm him down while panicked is Nikki.
