WTF?

Listening to the radio today, apparently parents think Cookie Monster is a bad influence on kids. In conjunction with this child obesity shit, Sesame Street has now turned cookie monster into a health nut. He now sings, "A cookie is a sometimes food" or "Me want cookies- in moderation."

This is ****ing bullshit. A cookie monster's diet depends on cookies. He's a monster. He'll steal, maim, rape, or kill anything and everything to get cookies. Now he's staying away from them?

I hate today's society. Only we could ruin something so badass like cookie monster.

If he really is a cookie monster, isn't this forced starvation on the part of Sesame Street? Cookies are his natural diet, like koalas and eucalyptus or lions and antelope. Saying he shouldn't eat cookies is like saying that birds shouldn't eat bugs. You're trying to override nature.

Cookies are the Cookie Monsters heroin.

As any junkie would in this situation, he needs to perform a degrading sexual favor(s) for a firearm and take the members of Seseme Street hostage sending a corpse out the window once every hour until he gets his FUC$ING COOKIES BACK.

The premise of this thread seems to assume that

1) There is nothing in any way wrong with eating lots of (exclusively) cookies.
2) Sesame Street isn't allowed to consider the impact upon a childs behavior when scripting their show

Look, the entire point behind the creation of SS is to create a fun learning tool for Children. 20 years later we realize that one lesson we weren't effectively teaching our children was good eating habits. SS decided to do something about it.

WTF is wrong with that again?

The McDonalds commercial immediately following the show? :shrug:

I don't have a problem with SS legitimately trying to alter their content to better influence children, IF that's the catalyst in this case. More likely, it's response to pressure from some stupid politically correct group with an agenda and a lawyer. I realize lawyers are necessary and that there are some good ones - probably even on ChiefsPlanet. But, many of them are evil - like the ones who got to Sesame Street.

1) No one is advocating the mass consumption of cookies.

2) If Sesame Street is afraid that the Cookie Monster is going to negatively impact a childs life, or worse yet, be named in a frivolous lawsuit (because I believe that is what this is all about), then they should just eliminate the character altogether instead of "dumbing him down".

To be honest, I had the same problem Saturday Night and this morning. Usually that only happens when I drink a red wine in excess.

I was tying to figure out what the hell was going on until I saw a thirty six slot Oreo container with only two cookies left in it last night. That's when I said "enough of this" and ate the last two cookies.

If your kid is stupid enough to try to eat only cookies because some fuzzy sock with a hand up it's ass is doing it on Seseme Street then please, turn on the Bugs Bunny episode where they hit each other on the head with hammers and get it over with.

It won't stop there, some Christian mother will say the word "monster" is too synonymous with the devil.

They also shouldn't overlook the fact he lives in a trash can which is suggesting to kids that you can live in a trash can, eat cookies, and bang on the drums all day and be on a TV show.

Which is why Cosmic was watching fake green rubber monsters terrorize tabletop plastic cities with Japenese men moving lips to some poor English. I can have my cookies, and eat them too.

My sister was a cookie monster FREAK. Her first stuffed animal was Cookie Monster and she still has him to this day.
And because I was an ADHD terror as a kid, she was, by associate, relegated to all natural peanut butter and home canned low-sugar jelly on homemade wheat bread, and carrots, celery, apples, oranges, etc., for her snacks.

Errrm, okay. :shake: You are dense.

Where did I say it's bad to let your kids eat cookies and watch TV?

There's a difference between letting your child watch Sesame Street, and letting your kid watch so much TV that that's where they learn their eating habits.

There's a difference between letting your kid eat cookies, and giving your kid access to enough cookies that their Cookie Monster molded mind makes them obese.

If Cookie Monster is the reason a child is fat, then it's the parent that failed, not the creators of some puppet's personality.

My beef with SS is they don't teach Proper Enlish. It pisses me of alot more that "Me want Cookie".....than the fact that a muppet is crumbling a cookie in the puppeteer's hand.

The difference dp4me, is that there is a difference in parenting that INCLUDES shows like sesame street, and those "parents" who give their kids a bag of Jelly beans and Plant them in front of the TV while they do whatever inactivity thier engaged in.

nowadays its computers and video games more than tv i think, I used to run my kids off the computer and tell them to get outside, they would say there's nothing to do, I would tell them to find something to do.
Your right kids are overweight now because they so damn lazy, they too lazy to go outside and play.
