Changing the subject, I know this is a cartoon and that things on here are exagerated sometimes, I don't know if this was discussed before, but a question -well, many questions- came to my mind a short time ago.
How can all Wilt's organs fit on his thin body? Were are his lungs, stomach, etc.? I mean, does the food go into his feet?.. I'm sorry!, I'm sorry! That was awful! I'm terrible! I don't think that actually happens! *runs towards the wall and hits her head with it, then she runs into the kitchen and spills lemon juice on her eyes. She returns to the computer* I had to punish myself... In what was I? Oh, yes... SORRY! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to!... Well, let's continue.
And what about his ribs? Wouldn't they have to be really thin so they fit? And something REALLY important, how can his heart fit in there? At least on all of us, human beings, our heart has a similar size to our fists, and have you seen the size of Wilt's fists? I'm sure you have. But maybe, like in other living things, that does not apply to him.
Maybe Mac, Goo, Cheese and many other imaginary friends and children are more or less as "fat" as him, but they are much shorter.
So... in conclusion, how can everything fit there, on his body? Only the cartoon's "magic"? Do you think there might be another explanation?

If you notice, ALL of the characters have impossibly-exaggerated physical features, including the human characters. There's no way, for instance, that Mac's body could possibly support such a huge head, or Frankie's neck could be so long and not collapse, or Madame Foster's legs be so short and virtually triangular! Animators use those exaggerations to make characters more appealing, and easier to draw, especially in Flash. Wilt's torso, in most shots, is the same size as Frankie's; it's just that his head is so huge and his limbs so long in comparison! If you look at the screen cap from Good Wilt Hunting, where he gets pulled down into that group hug by that overly-emotional family after returning "Floofy Woogums" to them, you'll see that his body is the same size as the two adults' bodies. I tend to think of it this way: if these were real, live characters that we could actually meet(wouldn't that be nice?), their proportions would be the same as those real people, more or less, without the exaggerations. Most of them would have MUCH smaller heads, Frankie's legs would have a more feminine shape and her grandmother's would not be triangular, the humans would have fingernails(which they do not have in most scenes), Mac's eyebrows would not be in front of his bangs, etc. Wilt's proportions would be the same as you'd expect if a human could be that tall, and he'd have clearly visable muscles, tendons, etc, just like you'd see under the skin of a tall, sinewy athlete(like most pro basketball players), which means he'd have plenty of room for the same organs that we have in his chest cavity and abdominal cavity. The characters' eyes, most of them anyway-would have irises(I mean Frankie's driver's license says that her eyes are green, but you only see her pupils). Most of the characters would have visable lips, not just a slit for a mouth.
