Can we speak? Because if we can, we should totally set ourselves up as a troll under the bridge and demand that all passers bring us food -- if they don't, we burn their pants/skirt off as Andre suggested earlier.
I endorse this statement. Support us!*

I suggest we follow the river to see if we can find something fun. We can use the bridge as a return-point in case it hails or we do not find anything. ^_^
1) We can understand what this person is saying. This means our attacker is NOT a boot monster.
2) This would suggest that, unless Miss Lirle is feeling particularly unkind, it's something on an equal scale to ourselves.
3) IF this is the case, and it may not be, we have a chance of taking it in a fight.
4) Speech suggests intelligence and intelligence suggests a brain that might be capable of discussion.
5) We should at least *try* to find out what this person's beef with us is, in case he has any friends that might come after us as well.
My suggestion:
Adopt a defensive pose and look intimidating but not threatening. Find out what we're dealing with and what the guy's problem with us is.
Also, I think we need to start thinking about a long term goal. A goal which can create a bit of drama and storyline so that Miss Lirle doesn't get bored just coming up with random events.

The funny thing is, I had a world map and a rough chain of possible events planned out ahead from the getgo. But then you guys blind-sided me by wanting to mess with some ants and I pretty much threw the whole thing out.

New longer update, now with half the calories - Take a defensive stance and assess the situation.
Spoiler
You quickly turn around and scan the area for the would-be assailant.
*Ching*
"Mwahaha! Foooooool!" *Krakoooosh*
Another voice, deeper and more menacing, booms out of the hedge. It would seem you aren't the one being yelled at. But as usual, you still aren't sure about what's going on..
Curiosity gets the best of you as always and you decide to carefully take a look inside the hedge, not quite sure as to what you expect to find.

Ahem... the blue ethereal part of "Jellyn" (have we even named our title character yet?) is also deeply suspicious of the magic box. [I think] It feels that Jellyn should give the box a wide berth, and slowly circle behind it to look for its "tail" (power cable). Also, it should avoid eye contact with the screen.
[Aside: although I can't name any examples off the top of my head, television sets are sometimes dangerous portals to the world seen inside it; the things inside it could claw their way out to assail viewers. Or the TV could suck the unwary into the TV world. Then again, it could be a red herring and harmless, but who would take that chance?]
Watch the shiny box for a bit to see if it makes any threatening actions. If not, approach cautiously, keeping alert for any signs of danger.
Seconded. Or eat the bush.

New boring update, now with flashing images - Warily observe

You quietly approach the odd box and watch the screen, losing track of time as you see strange miniature worlds, creatures and stories flash by for a while.
While nothing particularly exciting happens. You do learn a variety of lessons about Boot-Monster fighters, who apparently shout and glow a lot more than you thought.
You take a look at the rather bulky back of the box. All you see is a small vent on the side.

Admittedly though... Consuming a bridge could have granted us the ability to cross large bodies of water without drowning...
Anyway... I don't think we should touch the box, it appears to be possibly dangerous. Let us leave the strange electronic device and sneak off to somewhere safer.

Eat the box! Eat the Box! ...

Can we... Can we split into two oozes? One for the suicidal among us and the other for the mildly more sane?
The Ooze is a single sentient creature, with a very simple mind*.
While we can probably drop some of our flabby goop to make ourselves thinner and more attractive, it would just kinda lay there being goop instead of turning into a 'second' Ooze.

I'm not sure that I completely agree with the logic at play here.

Damn... There goes that idea to increase our longevity...
