I actually wasn't really bothered by her in Neighbor Pains either, to be honest. True, I was surprised to see her acting so unexpectedly bossy to all the others, but I didn't really view it is bullying. The fact that she was participating in Adopt-a-Thought-Saturday in the first place meant to me that she began with the genuine intention to help out at Foter's, but as can be seen, she clearly became extremely caught up in her role and was quite over-the-top with her performance. Did she go overboard? Undoubtedly yes, but I her original intentions I think had to be good.
Even though a cartoon character, she is at the same time only human, and can have flaws (as Frankie with her nasty cookie addiction and Mac with his sugar troubles). But then again, Goo herself is already over-the-top to begin with, so I think that's why it gets offensive to some when she goes any further.
