Sesame Street

Sesame Street, an American institution for the past 31 years or so. All of us have watched it, enjoyed it, and learned from it. What amazes me the most are the characters on there and their purpose. For instance, what purpose does Oscar the grouch serve? He sits in a garbage can heckling people, bitching about his miserable life, and just being as negative as one can be. Then there is Snuffleupagus, he was definitely on the pipe. He moped around, slurring his speech, and talking like a retard. What was he, an elephant, a mammoth? He was useless. Grover was the first recorded case of ADD and the first Ritalyn recipient. He was always hyper and yelling and jumping around. Ernie and Bert were homosexual (not that there's anything wrong with that) and we all knew it. Yes, they had separate beds, but somehow they always ended up in the same bed. They hung out in the tub together quite often as well. Big Bird, what was his story? He was a whiney ass bitch too. He served no purpose but to be the street's drama queen. He was in everyone's business causing all kinds of problems. Then there was cookie monster. A blue blob of crap that ate cookies and growled. It's amazing we learned from this crew. I suppose there's a Bert, Ernie, Cookie, Oscar, Grover, Snuffleupagus, and Big Bird in all of our lives.
