Word broke out of New York this week that some 900 people signed a petition urging the producers of Sesame Street to have Bert and Ernie come out of the closet and tie the knot in a gay marriage ceremony in front of their closest friends.
Sesame Street's response: What the Fuck?
Okay, so it wasn't that strongly worded but Sesame Street was forced to point out the obvious that Bert and Ernie are puppets and have no sexual orientation. Hell, they don't even have dicks. The show the went on to point out that the entire point of the ambiguously gay duo was to show kids that two people who are different can be close friends. Gotta hand it to Sesame Street on this one for telling 900 weird fuckers with nothing better to do to go to hell. Well done.
