* InnocentlyInsensitive: She has a habit of emphasizing failures and flaws that others are struggling with, while not noticing just how much it hurts who she's speaking to, especially in the early episodes. One example is when she piles on Boober for failing to alert Gobo (due to fear-induced inability to whistle) to Sprocket's approach when Gobo was trying to get Matt's postcard.
