Sesame Street

Consider all other Vines irrelevant. As far as we're concerned, now that Cookie Monster has made a Vine of his own truncated version of 'Gone in Sixty Seconds,' we don't see how the medium can go anywhere but down.

In celebration of the destruction of the Defense of Marriage Act this past Wednesday, next weeks's cover of The New Yorker will feature an illustration by Jack Hunter depicting 'Sesame Street' residents and best friends Bert and Ernie, cuddling on the couch and watching the news.

Cookie Monster got arrested yesterday for shoving a toddler. Obviously it was a man dressed up as Cookie Monster, and it happened in Times Square, where basically nothing good will ever happen, but still, come on Cookie Monster!

For over 40 years, The Muppets of 'Sesame Street' have been teaching children in the U.S. to read, count, recognize shapes and play well with others. Big Bird, Ernie, Bert, Cookie Monster, Oscar the Grouch and the rest are nationally known superstars...

The mystery of who stole a 44-pound gold cookie from the outside of the German headquarters of biscuit maker Bahlsen has been solved. Well, sort of.

Hey, did you hear there was an election yesterday? It was kind of a big deal, you know, presidents and what not. With Obama being reelected, people were pretty quick to start poking fun of the losers, as well as the ultra-conservatives who said they'd be moving abroad. Oh, and gay marriage and the legalization of marijuana passed in several states. Of course, memes are a great way to do this. Here

Thanks to Mitt Romney and a bunch of merry meme makers, Big Bird is hot. Thanks to the novelty costume makers at Yandy.com, Big Bird is sexy. Ick.

Here's one more point against Mitt Romney -- the streets this Halloween are going to be flooded with women in "sexy" Big Bird costumes, thanks to his comments at the recent presidential debate.

America's favorite eight-foot-tall bird stopped by 'Saturday Night Live' last night to discuss Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney's comments regarding PBS just this past Wednesday.

We have some great GIFs for you here to sum up your week. Reaction to a big test you just took? We've got that. Frustration with the presidential debate? We've got that too. Got your heart broken so brutally that you're considering switching teams? That most likely didn't happen, but just in case we've got that for you anyway. It's been a good week.

For 53 years, people have been friends with Big Bird. Maybe Mitt Romney should have said something about 'Nova' when talking about cutting funds to PBS.

Mitt Romney can't just say he's going to put Big Bird out of a job and get away with it. Here are the best memes so far from the Great 2012 Big Bird Backlash that don't have curse words. Because in the mind of the internet, when Big Bird gets angry he grabs a rifle and starts spewing obscenities.

Turns out even Muppets like Psy. Video footage of Sirius radio host Jennifer Koppelman Hutt and Elmo dancing along to 'Gangnam Style' has surfaced. They both do a pretty good job at the dance (though can anyone surpass Psy?), and Elmo seems into it...

Redditor ProbableCause spotted the pair at this year's DragonCon and for some reason was compelled to share it with the rest of the world, a world that can only wonder, "Why? Why did you do that to us, bro?" See another photo below, if you dare.

It's a sad day for lovers of 'Sesame Street' everywhere -- Jerry Nelson, the puppeteer who gave Count von Count his voice passed away Thursday of unspecified causes at the age of 78.
