Ah, yes. Here we are again with a fresh and important Twitter debate. This time, the debate concerns who would win in a street fight-- The Muppets or Sesame Street? This is no joking matter. People have strong, passionate feelings concerning the outcome of this street fight.
Sesame Street
Not only are the tweets from Sesame Street's ever hungry muppet, the renowned Cookie Monster, hilarious; but they're pretty damn relatable. I mean, who doesn't want to lie in bed all day working hard on doing nothing, while eating cookies? At least for a little bit.
If you still want more, for whatever reason, look at these Insanely Dark and Demented Sesame Street Memes. Your welcome, your childhood is gone.
Did you know? Assassins do it from behind ;) . Also, I just started taking Viagra for my sunburn. My doctor recommended it, and I have to say, it's definitely not a cure but my sheets are off my legs all night.
I don't know about you, but after those two, I need an intervention to get through the rest of my Sunday. Look no further for a little advice for Sunday. Want to laugh even more? Check out these hilarious Sunday memes to keep yourself rolling on the floor.
Unless you spent your waking childhood under a rock, not engaging with society and appreciating one of the greatest gifts to humanity, Sesame Street, you're likely well informed on the greatness that is Big Bird. Well, this dude had the brilliant (highdea?) that Big Bird might not be the biggest bird on the block....

We've figured out why Donald Trump wants to tank PBS so badly
Everyone knows that that reality-TV gameshow host who is currently under investigation by the FBI for links with Russia knows how to hold a grudge. So it makes sense that he'd want to take on the station responsible for the most politically subversive road in America: Sesame Street.
Over the years, Sesame Street has fired shots at Trump, making him out to be some sort of cartoonish villain for some reason. In 2005, they did an Apprentice parody with an orange-haired muppet named Ronald Grump, the trash-wealthiest grouch in the world, who puts his name on every piece of trash in town.
That wasn't the first time Grump tried to move onto Sesame Street. In 1988, a real estate tycoon who promised multi-floord can-diminums for grouches set up shup in and built Grump Tower.
But apparently, Sesame Street wasn't content with the metaphorical distance of a felt puppet, and later recast Gump with none other than Joe Pesci.

Anti-vaxxers just got schooled by a little red muppet.
Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, Sesame Street and The Daily Dot have teamed up in a new PSA about why vaccinations are so important.
In the 3-minute clip, Murthy explains to Elmo, who initially isn’t so keen on getting a shot, why he needs one if he wants to stay healthy. He compares it to wearing a bicycle helmet or carrying an umbrella when it rains.
Murthy talked more about the collaboration on the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services blog:
Vaccines are among the most successful and cost-effective public health tools we have for preventing disease and death. They not only help protect vaccinated individuals, but they also help protect entire communities by preventing and reducing the spread of infectious diseases. Among children in the U.S. born between 1994 and 2013, routine vaccinations will prevent an estimated 322 million illnesses, 21 million hospitalizations, and 732,000 deaths over the course of their lifetimes.
And they both took a little dig at the anti-vaxxer movement at the end of the video.
“That was so easy. Why doesn’t everybody get a vaccination,” he says.
“That’s a good question Elmo,” Murthy replies.
