My back is a little sore, but I think it's from the way I'm sitting. Thanks for asking!

I don't know if it's funny, but we got a couple of letters from some parents who said their son was autistic and he really responded to Happy Tree Friends. It was his obsession. He was upset that Flippy was so mean and felt that he should get what he deserves. So we decided to kill Flippy in an episode. A little while after it aired we got letters from both parents again thanking us and telling us how happy it made their son and how much better he's been acting. It was all very surreal. Happy Tree Friends, changing lives.

Ironically, gratuitous violence is our inspiration. Also, we were inspired by old Looney Tunes cartoons and the sweet sappy cartoons of the 80's (Care Bears, Smurfs, etc) Looney Tunes never showed what would really happen if you had an anvil dropped on your head and we wanted to drop an anvil on the Care Bears heads.

One bad answer: Why not?

Maaaaaayyyyybbbbeeee.
