Nice post Sis!
Thank You Sesame Street
Go Big Bird!!! 8) That's pretty cool
Wow, I can hardly believe that isn't a hoax post...?? Big Bird was already a hero (heroine) of mine, but now... awesome!
Given the other headlines on the site, (and the rest of the article's content, which runs from suspect to absurd), I'm pretty sure this is not intended as factual.
Other headlines from same site:
MO Woman Possessed by Demon after Signing Up for ObamaCare
Satan Worshiping Child Beheads Cat for Show-and-Tell
CDC Report Reveals Existence of 'Zombies'
It is a satirical news site.
Read the comments after the story and you will see a long way to go. Some of the comments made me cry and realize things are just the same. Doesn't matter though, at least I have my family here. Who needs more than that, right? :)

Sorry, Jill :-\ but it's indeed a fake story. Even their disclaimer is meant to be read as a joke.
D'oh! *Facepalm*
My wife sent me that as if...
Must take ADD meds next time.
Looks like this thread will be on the next bus out of News and straight to the Humour section!
Ha! I thought it seemed unlikely, still it's nice to dream and Big Bird is still awesome.

And Sesame Street has always been one of the best ways to educate children about real issues that they may not experience in a lighthearted manner that they can understand. Big Bird was always more of an andro, it seemed to me. I never cared, it's still loveable character. The Cookie Monster change was slightly disheartening, but it was for the better, as children become more and more gullible to television
In other news Cookie Monster fronts the death metal band, Pastor of Muppets...
*more facepalm*
Take a look at the News Anchors (Sarah Palin and Ted Cruz)....
I am actually not surprised about big bird.
but
"Elmo grappling with issues of puberty and masturbation"... :o wait. Sesame Street sure HAS changed. I'm just curious how they go about approaching this. Has the age demographic gone up? ???
LOL at "grappling" and "masturbation" in the same sentence....
;D
