    I know, I know. Don't let reality get in the way of a good cartoon -- BUT...

    How the HECK does Bloo climb the stairs? He's flat-bottomed, and I'm not referring to his bum. This little IF has no feet!

    Please feel free to post your theories on this here. I anxiously await them, as I'm sure they'll be as creative as ever!

    He glides up them like a ghost. I don't know. He apparently has shins, but I guess he just doesn't have feet. Why he can't just summon them out of nowhere like his arms and fingers is a mystery.

        kageri has a point. I believe Bloo does have shins, even though it appears he doesn't have feet. Good question, though I don't spend a lot of time dwelling over it.

              Then how can he also summon a butt or fingers if the need be? And where the heck does his arms go when he isn't using them?

              All decent questions that will never get real answers. You said it yourself. Don't let reality get in the way of a good cartoon. Just enjoy.

                Yes, moonpony. It is a cartoon. Just like how Wile E. Coyote, Super Genius gets products that never work to his advantage.

                  I lol'd. Anyway, I think his 'flat bottom' becomes kind of blobby, and half of it moves up on the stair, then the other half, just as if it where feet.

                    For the younger members of Never Forgotten,

                    Inky,Blinky,Sue, and Clyde are the names of the Ghost Monsters from PacMan.

                    for the older members of Never Forgotten, I assume you already knew that.

                      I watched "Squeakerboxxx" on my computer and skipped right to the part where Bloo drags a nightgown-wearing Frankie around the house. One of the shots has them going up a stairway, and it looks like Bloo glides up like a ghost. So that's how I think he does it.

                        Anyone over the age of 30 should be ashamed if he or she didn't get that reference! And I like the concept of Bloo morphing his flat-bottomed self to fit the stairs as he approaches them.

                        Funny thing about those Pac Man ghosts. Don't they turn BLOO when they're afraid? LOL!

                          Ah HA!! But the Pacman ghosts had lil appendage-like frills on their bottoms, so those could be feasibly used as feet if they didn't just fly everywhere anyway.

                            Oh P-shaw. I got it, and I'm 15. =P I guess that'll happen when your parents won't let you get a gaming system better than a gameboy advance.

                            As for Bloo and stairs? I'm almost positive I saw him hop up them before. OH, now that I think about it, he just stepped up them in Bus the Two of Us, when he and Mac were gonna slide down them. He just sorta...Stretched.
                            Citizens of Never Forgotten, I stand before you, because if I was behind you, you couldn't see me.

                              I believe Duchess mentioned Blinky and Clyde in Duchess of Wails. And Sue replaced Clyed in Ms. Pac-Man.
