2025 Highlights

Image
  Well, another year has come and gone, and seeing as how I have nothing better to do, I might as well go over some of the great things that happened to me during 2025. I finally posted the results of my favorite Sesame Street character poll to a fantastic reception. (And spoiler alert: My favorite character won by a landslide.) While MuppetHistory being outed as a horrible person was a sour way to end last year, I was able to fill the hole with so many other fantastic Muppet fans. (Including, but not limited to: Malonespops, MuppetHerstory, Muppet Stuff With Jake, Petrifiedmuppet, mcmupz, Weirdpuppetgirl, muppetmarisa, muppetstuff, fr00tbats, etc.) Even with how rampant the California wildfires were, miraculously, our mobile home remained completely unscathed. Which meant we could take all of our stuff over to our new house, which we’re still getting settled into, but is way closer to most of the stuff we love. My mom finally finished law school and got her degree, and now she’s ...

Sesame Street Character Introductory Episodes

  This wasn’t a planned thing, but emergencies rarely ever are planned. So, last night, Muppet Instagram user Muppet Stuff With Jake made a story about how his girlfriend had never seen Sesame Street before and asked if anyone had good recommendations for episodes he should show her. Naturally, when I heard about this, I had SO many recommendations, I couldn’t possibly narrow it down to just one or two picks, so I decided to do something unique.

I guess I should also mention that for this list, I’m only focusing on seasons 1-50, because that’s where I feel t...

What Your Favorite Sitcom Says About You

Image
  (DISCLAIMER: These are all light-hearted jokes. Take them with a grain of salt.) You know, you can usually tell what someone’s deal is by looking at what their favorite sitcom is. Like if you watch the show about a public service bureaucrat and her ragtag group of misfits who strive to make their hometown a better place, you’re trying to cope with the fact that the real world government is an absolute hellhole and the main character would make a better president than anyone we’ve gotten in the last two decades because she loves her job, is willing to cooperate and listen to other people with different perspectives, and actually has everyone else’s interests at heart. Five of the worst people on the planet own a bar in Philadelphia and get into crazy shenanigans that screw over themselves and everyone around them, and despite their awfulness, watching them gives you comfort, because they ironically act like a more tight-knit group of friends than your inner circle. A boss at a pap...
