See, this was exactly what I was talking about in the favorite IF thread-the Eduardo bashing. Personally, I think there's a difference between being stupid and being innocent. Eduardo is definitely the latter because of his naive, child-like mind, in my opinion. He just simply can't comprehend some of the more complex issues such as love and probably other issues because he is child-like in nature, not because he is stupid. He has proven that he is basically a child IF trapped in a (supposedly) adult IF's body time and time again in the episodes.

However, getting angry at a character because of "stupidity" is just flat-out uncool and wrong, as others have stated. Besides, since this show is supposedly aimed mostly at the younger audience (with many adults included as well) then what kind of image would it be showing to children if it was screaming out "Hey, let's all take our anger out on certain characters because they're stupid! Their idiocy should be ridden of immediately!"

Now, I am not trying to be offensive here-that is not my intention. I am merely making the point that characters should never have anger taken out on them simply because they are "stupid", which, in my opinion, Eduardo isn't even that at all. I just hope that I have made it clear that I am not trying to flame or upset anyone, just to show you how I feel about this.

But to get back on topic, I will admit that Goo seems to be treating everyone like that lately-she got snippy with Frankie, Wilt and some others, too, all of them not really seeming to do anything wrong to deserve it, either (well, at least to my knowledge-it's been awhile since I've seen those episodes). Wonder what's up with that?
