Have you seen the rating in the DVD release of Sesame Street? It says that the show was intended for grown-ups! Did you know that you and your children have been watching an M Rated adult show all these years? WOW!
Cookie smokes a pipe and eats junk food, contributing to obesity.
Cute furry blue monsters are going around asking for way too many hugs… hugging is a big no-no now a days!
So it seems that Snuffy really was “snuff”, meaning Big Bird was a drug addict.
The purple dude wearing the triangle shaped collar must be gay, otherwise why have purple skin and wear triangles, and boy oh boy does he have has mental problems because he counts everything he gets near and talks to bats and spiders! For shame!
Best friends who live together, are always gay, so Bert and Ernie bad for kids.
Homeless green grouchy dudes living in trash cans are evil and should be avoided at all costs.
And all men who give milk and cookies to children are pedophiles, thus Gordan and Mr Hooper are not good roll models.
What the hell? What kind of a twisted mind watches Sesame Street and sees puppets teaching the alphabet as rated for adults only? Weird, weird, weird, weird. Don’t think it can get any weirder than that.
You know what? I grew up on Sesame Street! It was one of my favorite shows. I watched Sesame Street and Captain Kangaroo every day, never missed an episode. I was reading and writing at age 3 because of Sesame Street! And apparently I was watching Sesame Street when it was at it’s most evil too: the 1970′s! It’s the episodes from the 1960′s and 1970′s that have the M rating on them! oooooooh!
You know one of the things every body is jumping all over about Sesame Street is the fact that the early episodes show adult men befriends 5 and 6 year old girls… men who btw are a stranger to the girls! Thinks of my fave fictional character: Lord Sesshomaru, who suddenly decides to befriend the 8 year old girl, Rin, and from that point on she lives with him and is his closest companion. Like Sesame Street, the Sessho/Rin relationship was greeted with outraged parents resulting in Romiku ended her book by having Kaede taking Rin away from Sesshomaru. *GRRRR* Evil parents complaining, hurt my Sessho. 
Okay, so InuYasha is sold as a T-16 rated book, and the tv show is rated M, both ratings due partially to Lord Sesshomaru and the implications of his infatuation over Rin, but who knew Sesame Street was so evil? I mean, wasn’t Sesame Street aired as being intended for ages 2 – 8? Are they saying that what was okay for 2 – 8 year olds 30 years ago, is only fit for adults over 18 in today’s society? Are they trying to tell us that all us children who grew up on Sesame Street now have problems due to our watching Sesame Street and thus children today should not be allowed to watch it in order to prevent them from become like us? Is that the message these rating people are telling us? If so, I ask you than, what is wrong with us? How did Sesame Street corrupt us? What did it do to us that resulted in children today not being allowed to watch it?
- I remember Cookie Monster smoking his pipe, eating up cookies, and gulping down whole milk. Today I’m 33 years old, have never smoked, rarely eat cookies, and not only do I drink whole milk, but I also drink heavy cream! And you know what? I’m 5’6″, 36″ x 28″ x 38″ and weigh 138 lbs. I’m the farthest thing from overweight. In spite of my drinking heavy cream mixed with whole milk, I seem to have escaped from the evil clutches of the goggly eyed blue Cookie Monster.
Bert and Ernie are gay! WTH? Where do people come up with this stuff? I remember watching Bert and Ernie, and thinking they were brothers. Never thought of them as anything different and still today look at them and see brothers. Looks like my mind wasn’t naturally corrupted enough to see past my childish innocence and see Bert and Ernie for the evil monsters they really were! *SHEESH*
Big Bird was a drug addict and high as a kite when he went around talking to Snuffy, either that or he was a dangerous raving lunatic who suffered from an advanced case of schizophrenia. Either way that bird and his imaginary friend are just waaaay too evil for children today to watch. Well, now! It looks like all of us fiction authors, who have imaginary characters running around in our brains begging us to write stories about them, we authors, we certainly are an evil lot aren’t we?
It’s politically incorrect to portray poverty ridden homeless men as living in trash cans and hating any one who dares come by. I mean, really, the guy has lived in a trash can so long now that he turned green! How evil is that?
All of the characters are men, not a woman as far as the eye can see… except of course the little girls who go skipping by. It’s discriminating against women and promoting lolicon at the same time. SHOCKING!
Than you got a perverted blue furry guy who’s running around in a cape and asking to hug every one! OMG! Everybody run for the hills, Grover wants to hug you! It’s evil at it’s at it’s cutest!
Lets not forget that weird pointed eared obsessive compulsive freak of a hermit, who has locked himself away in a distant castle, where he sits around all day talking to spiders and bats, playing organ music, and obsessively counting everything in site.
Silly me, here I was watching Sesame Street all these years and I never noticed any of those things! I thought I was watching educational television and learning how to read and write and count and sing along with my favorite puppets. Now we are being told that Sesame Street was REALLY brainwashing us with all sorts of evil hidden messages!
Granted, I can see how Sesame Street did in fact affect me on some levels. My first *love* was Count Von Count, after all, and by the time I was 6 years old I had quite a large collection of Count memorabilia! My first rabid fan-girl mania, was for a purple skinned guy with cute pointy ears, sharp fangs, wearing freaking cloths, suffering from OCD, and playing the piano. Odd… by the time I was 8 years old I had become a rabid fan-girl of Liberace, another weird guy with funny cloths and a piano. By the time I was a teenager I was head over heels for Dracula, Mr. Rochester, Eric, and Lesat.
hhhhmmmm…. Can it be that Sesame Street really did corrupt me after all? If I hadn’t become a fangirl of Count Von Count at such a young age, I might never have moved on to the more dangerous vampires. Of course, I’ve always had a thing for vampy guys with pointy ears and wearing freaky outfits, so can I blame Sesame Street for my current obsession with Lord Sesshomaru? I need to blame Sesame Street for something right? I mean, every body else is after all.
