A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.

I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!

Only goofs & silliness. (:

They don't look alike "IRL", Cookie Monster is bigger and has a flat head. But they use the same pattern for the dolls, because capitalism, or something, IDK.

I was about to say they aren't real, but luckily I realised that was wrong in time. I don't know where these disrespectful thoughts come from.

Rather Elmo is Hot Cookie Monster

I'm not sure I wanna know which definition of "hot" you're referring to.

Especially since Elmo seems to be like 5, but Cookie Monster comes off as an adult monster.

Because Elmo refers to themselves in the third person, I read your comment in their voice. And he means sexy, obviously.

Cookie Monster predates Elmo by 14 years, so yes.

So cold that he lost his nose to frostbite?

Elmo is an abomination. Say No, kids.

[–] PrimeMinisterKeyes@leminal.space 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What's Elmo's shtick anyway? At least Cookie Monster has something interesting going on. Like being addicted to cookies without ever getting fat.

It’s very well explained in this video, How Elmo Ruined Sesame Street

TL;DW: the muppets were all about YOU, and each other, but that squeaky coke snorting narcissistic little shit Elmo was all ME ME ME all the time and it fucked up everything.

I'm still haunted by the monster on the next page.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Ahh. My people!

Snow miser and heat miser

They missed an opportunity to put a cookie there where the nose is on Elmo. 🍪👃

Ooh, Elmo does not begin to compare to the ultimate grouch (hilarious SNL skit).
