There once was a Muppet named... ('Sesame Street' Wednesday)

'Sesame Street' is a whole brave new world just waiting to be saluted with adult satire.

And since you're reading this blog, you're probably old enough for it. If not, ask a responsible adult to pre-screen this entry.

'Sesame Street' teaches kids letters and numbers using creative vignettes that often include songs or poetry. For instance, this sketch about the letter 'L' uses a limerick:



A limerick, huh?

Since we're on the topic of limericks, here's some creative adult limericks about 'Sesame Street' characters:

There once was a Muppet named Bert
Who wore a funny striped shirt
His wiener got bitten
By one of his pigeons
And poor ol' Bert said, "That hurt!"

There once was a frog named Kermit
Who owned a brothel without a permit
It spread the syph
To Sully and Biff
Forcing the health department to burn it

'L'. Limerick.
