The Simpsons did the same joke about Barney Gumble. Years ago.

[–]humblerodent8[S] 5 points6 points ago

SIMPSONS DID IT

[–]Nomiss 1 point2 points ago

And crazy cat lady. More recently.

Introduced by the government to keep the man down.

Usually you experiment a bit before you find your drug of choice. Not Cookie Monster.

[–]jessicahonig 8 points9 points ago

Cookies. Not even once.

[–]Knightbre 2 points3 points ago

He chewed, but he didn't swallow.

[–]lisabadcat 15 points16 points ago

If he needs a fix, he should concentrate on the letters B and J and the number $5.

Cookie monster has a degree in cookie engineering from Loughborough university (uk). He was on the board for research students in mechanical engineering department so it must be true.

Sesame Street Origins: Cookie Monster. Rated R.

[–]csgoodri 2 points3 points ago

Dr. Monster just doesn't sound right anyways.

[–]CaptRumfordAndSons 3 points4 points ago

Should have said "Will teach you the letter C for cookies"

[–]chusurus 3 points4 points ago

repost! kill it!

[–]lizbethblues 0 points1 point ago

This is eerily like the fate of Aaron of Online Gamer.

[–]Zugwat -1 points0 points ago

His name was originally Sid but now he's more commonly known by his street name "Cookie Monster"

[–]COXIMUS 1 point2 points ago

Few people know about Monster's early work in thermodynamics. He really was brilliant and had an amazingly bright future. It's a shame that he made a few bad choices and it spiraled down as badly as it did. It just goes to show you how easy it is to fall victim to cookies. Bad stuff man.

[–]fennesz 0 points1 point ago

He must be Irish.

[–]Llewdin 0 points1 point ago

S is for Sucks

[–]bloons -1 points0 points ago

Ah... nothing like a little OC in the morning.

[–]depressedned 0 points1 point ago

Taxi did it... The Jim ignatowski story

[–]raby5 0 points1 point ago

I think the joke would have been funnier like this.

[–]Brainles -2 points-1 points ago

This makes me so glad Obama just won...SESAME STREET RULES!

[–]bobbyalfaro 2 points3 points ago

Damn reposters. They bother me like bad sex

[–]killitwithlols -1 points0 points ago

Cookies, not even once
