To think Bert and Ernie should go ahead of the wedding and to hell with cookie monster ?

[ApocalypseCheeseToastie]

Pah, those miserable sods at Sesame ave called the wedding off as too controversial, I was rather looking forward to it, this would have been bigger than the royal wedding had it gone ahead

Bert and Ernie are/were getting married?!

Is nothing sacred anymore? What does Big Bird think about it all?

no way!i wish they would,it would complete me!

Yes, finally it was all set to go ahead when this happened

Such a sad day.

Oh, honestly.

To be fair, I think we all saw it coming.

Has anybody even asked what Elmo thinks eh ?

It was never on was it, just a petition online to ask SS to do it?

I didn't

I think they have a very good point - puppets don't have any sexual orientation, so why would they get married?

And why, may I ask, did mumsnet not support this petition ?

Why do Bert and Ernie need to be married?

I don't remember a huge clamour for Morecambe and Wise to get married when they shared a bed.

Because they loved each other picnic ?

Or does that not count for anythig these days ?

picnic-they are not puppets!!!

I thought Bert had died years ago

do you think Ernie's just in it for the pension money then?

Died? Do they usually kill off puppet character on Sesame Street?

Bert is fascinated by pidgeons
It would never have worked.

Picnic that just made me lol :o

I want to know what Oscar the Grouch said, he strikes me as bigoted.

Didn't George, Zippy and Bungle share a bed, who knows what was going on there.

My mistake, sorry . It was an unfounded rumour. I googled it.

In light of the fact he is still alive and well, I think they should get married to celebrate.

seriously i have to hide this thread,my children is disapearing down the drain.

childhood i mean .my children are fine

they have lived together since 1969, why force them to partake in an outdated ceremony. It's just a piece of paper etc etc

Is Rainbow a gay pride metaphor?

I know but they should be out and proud at the very least. Maybe a cermony of love ??
