WTH is wrong with people today ! :)

Warning Labels Placed On "Sesame Street" DVDs

Parents who grew up watching the first episodes of "Sesame Street" will be shocked to hear that they're now for adults only.

The first two DVDs of the earliest episodes have warning labels on them that say they're "intended for grown-ups, and may not suit the needs of today's preschool child."

Executive producer Carol-Lynn Parente tells the New York Times that some things that were OK then, are not now.

Like the Cookie Monster eating all those unhealthy Cookies or smoking a pipe while playing Alistair Cookie. And what about Oscar the Grouch being so mean to everyone?

She says they might not create a character like him now.

Remember when Big Bird was the only one who could see Snuffleupagus? that suggests hallucinations, which is a no-no.

Even in the first episode ever aired, Gordon befriends a lonely girl named Sally, holds her hand and takes her home to meet his wife and eat cookies with milk

Damn! In all my years I have never thought back and wondered "Just what was in cookie monster's pipe?" or "was Big Bird trippin on LSD since he can only see Snuffy?".

This is just too much!

Hmm, I'm not sure. Would there even be a "heck". I mean, isn't that getting a little religious now? :D

I remember "Monsterpiece Theater" with Cookie Monster eating his pipe at the end and loving it. Oddly, I never felt compelled to either smoke or consume pipes. Still, how dare my parents expose me to such trash (apparently)?

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
