Undisputed Ruler of Terrencania

![]() There is a difference between being unintelligent and just not thinking. "Stupid" is a vague term that can define either. Bloo isn't unintelligent but he often does not think, therefore in a *sense* of the word, he can be stupid.

![]() Correct. Poeple with raw intelligence can still be stupid, in my view.

Mac's World in Bloo

In that same respect, if Wilt was called "stupid", for whatever reason, it would probably bother the many fans or even just the people who know his personality well and don't understand the use of the word. That's kind of how I feel about Bloo, so maybe I'm being a little biased, but he simply is NOT stupid to me, and I'll hold to that. (He's selfish, sometimes a big jerk, and naive/clueless, yes all those things, but not stupid.) And here I go, on and on and on... ![]() lol

![]() I understand what you're getting at. Bloo's no Einstein, but he's definitely not "stupid" in the sense that he's a thick-headed, dimwitted numskull either. Some of his ideas may be brash and silly, but he's still clever enough to come up with brilliant schemes and solve things on his own. After all, who was it who discovered the secret behind the photos in "The Big Picture" and outsmarted Mac in "I Only Have Surprise for You"?

Take a bow, Bloo. You deserve it.

The Best Character on the Show
|
![]() As I've stated in the "Make Believe it or Not Thread", that episode, in my mind, confirmed that Goo has some form of abandonment issue. While it is natural for kids to react irritably and unhappily when they feel they're being ignored, Goo took it to an extreme. Not the fact that she created the IFs she created, but the fact that she couldn't let go of having failed to be able to keep up with Mac in their little "one-up" contest. While that wouldn't necessarily have anything to do with an abandonment issue, I personally think that she feels she has to prove herself, a lot like Bloo seems to at times, and that if she fails she feels she'll be all left alone. Probably groundless speculation, but it's my current belief.
Something else got me: they showed her at her house in MBION, but there were absolutely no shots of her parents. Not one. While it may or may not mean anything, you have to wonder how much attention her parents really give to her. While we know that they don't want to restrict her creativity, they don't appear to do anything to let it flourish, let alone help her current self-esteem. And I think that's what gets me: they don't want to stiffle her creativity so she'll have good self-esteem when she's a teen, but they're ignoring the fact that she already has lousy self-esteem. She feels the need to keep fighting on whatever grounds she's already fighting without giving up even when it's over, she has limited social skills, she herself seems fairly complacent with being ignored at times (she didn't really start interacting again until Wilt brought her back into the fold of the game), ect. I'm just saying, you have to be a somewhat aloof parent to not notice your child already has what you wanted to prevent them from getting. OVERANALYSIS! ![]()
