Funny Ways To Say Happy Birthday

In the 2008 TV series The Mr. Men Show, Mr. Bump is a regular character. He kept his looks except one of his bandages is gone and is always having accidents, more often than not non-bump-related ones such as accidentally being cleaned in a car wash. Like Mr. Grumpy and Mr. Small, his favorite food is liverwurst sandwiches, as mentioned in the Beach episode. He lives in a square house which is olive, with a black chimney, arched windows and a bandaged roof. Often, Little Miss Whoops, his next-door neighbor and sister, or Little Miss Helpful is the cause of his accidents. His catchphrase in the show is, "Oh poopity-poop!" and "You'll never learn.", usually exclaimed when his situation turns bad. In the US and UK Versions, he is voiced by Aaron Albertus and Simon Greenall. In Mr. Bump Loses His Memory he falls out of his bedroom window and bumps his head, promptly causing him to lose his memory. He is told, by Mr. Muddle that his name is, in fact, Mr. Careful, thus encouraging our confused Mr. Bump to try several jobs for which great care is needed, such as carrying eggs and delivering milk in glass bottles. His memory is restored when he walks into a tree, causing him to fall into a river. Mr. Bump is the sixth book in the Mr. Men series. Mr. Bump can't help having accidents. He takes a vacation and falls off a boat. Later, he falls into a deep hole at the beach. When he wants a job, the best job he can find is walking around and bumping into trees on Mr. Barley's apple orchard, making the apples fall off the trees. Mr. Brave is the fortieth book in the Mr. Men series. Mr. Brave is the most courageous person in the world, or so everyone thinks. The truth is that Mr. Brave is really a lucky coward. He only has one fear: heights. Mr. Brave appears under the titles Monsieur Courageux (French), Ο Κύριος Γενναίος (Greek), 勇敢先生 (Taiwan), 용감씨 (Korean). Mr. Bounce appears under the titles Monsieur Bing (French), Don Saltarin (Spanish), Meneer Stuiter/Meneertje Stuiterbal (Dutch), Ο Κύριος Χοροπηδούλης (Greek), 蹦跳先生 (Taiwan), Unser Herr Hupf (German) Senhor Saltitão (Portuguese) and Mister Beag (Gaeilge). In the 2008 TV series The Mr. Men Show, he looks the same as in the books except his hat has a stripe on it. His bouncing about causes chaos for the other Mr. Men and Little Misses in Dillydale, especially when he's out in public. Mr. Bounce speaks with an Asian accent (Irish in UK version). His catchphrase is, "Hello! Goodbye!". He often speaks quickly. In the UK and US Versions, he is voiced by Sam Gold and Simon Greenall. Mr. Bounce is the twenty-second book in the Mr. Men series. Mr. Bounce is small and bounces around like a rubber ball, which makes life very difficult for him. One day, after banging his head on the ceiling from bouncing off a chair, Mr. Bounce has decided he's had it with all this bouncing about and decides to see the doctor about it. On the way however, he trips on a pebble and becomes a live tennis ball for two boys in a tennis court. After taking a bus to the doctor's, Mr. Bounce bounces into the doctor's office and into Dr. Makeyouwell's mid-morning coffee. After Mr. Bounce explains his problem, Dr. Makeyouwell gives him the cure for bouncing about: heavy red boots. Mr. Bounce wears the boots to bed that night. The next morning, he bounces out of bed, but the boots make him fall through the floor straight into the kitchen. The following is a list of Mr. Men, from the children's book series by Roger Hargreaves, also adapted into the children's television programme The Mr. Men Show. Books one (Mr. Tickle) to forty-three (Mr. Cheerful) were written by Hargreaves, and the remainder by his son, Adam Hargreaves.
