yeah, ham is fatty and gross. I want to try horsemeat, supposed to be subpar though

No, no, no! Ham is glorious! It's flavor, it's texture... man, we're really getting off-topic here.

One thing that has always puzzled me about Goofball is why his kid would create someone like him to begin with. What possible use could he serve? I like to think that when someone creates an IF he gets not just the one he wants, but also often gets the one he needs on some level, too. Nina and Eduardo are a great example of what I mean. But Goofball... I'm sorry, but I just can't see where something like him could serve any useful purpose whatsoever. Any ideas here? Anyone?

Perhaps the kid was like Bloo. Or, like, you know, he didn't have any friends because he was always playing pranks on people and ruining their days so he made up an IF just like him. I actually have to wonder why there aren't more humanoid-looking IFs.

I say it is because he is Canadian. No offence to canadians, but they think different from us in the USA. a good example of this is all the many great canadian Comedians on sitcoms and movies throughout the years.

Even though I can't watch this episode, I actually quite like the character of Goofball. I think he's quite a funny character. I don't think he's hurtful or malicious as much as an ignorant slacker. Outside of the context of this ep his dialogue is quite amusing. And even though I really hated how Frankie had to miss her concert, and I mean really hated, it was no where near as bad as how Mac was treated in during his birthday. Or as bad as the ending of Foster's Goes to Europe. But still enough for me to avoid the episode from here on out. Now if Goofball were to show up again, calm down everyone, I wouldn't object. He would be a fun background character to play off of.

I despise goofbarf with much great intensity

(I just had to say that)

If Goofball comes back as a minor background character, I will be very upset. Like I've said, the ONLY circumstance in which he should be allowed to be return is if he does something to Frankie that makes it up to her and her fans.
