I'm glad to finally have a canonical transliteration of "Yenggoosveer de hoop-de-diskee-doo Yee-boom de hurdee yer humm! Børk! Børk! Børk!" posted by Johnny Assay at 6:55 AM on July 21, 2008 [2 favorites has favorites]
This is awesome. I am SO going to use the Statler and Waldorf videos to heckle bad posts on LJ and forums. posted by ShawnStruck at 7:29 AM on July 21, 2008

Very creative nicknames and episode titles. I have such a soft spot for the vision of Jim Henson and all who have followed him to keep the Muppets going. Good stuff, thank you. posted by cavalier at 8:48 AM on July 21, 2008
It is creepy how Statler and Waldorf won't age. When I'm dead, they will be still on some new medium, mocking me for my short-livedness.
A religion could be built around that fact. Statler and Waldorf will outlive you, and whatever you do, you won't gain their respect. Be humble, or be heckled humble. posted by Free word order! at 10:17 AM on July 21, 2008 [6 favorites has favorites]
One of the more adorable things I've seen was the sketch where Beaker, the Swedish Chef, and Animal all sang "Danny Boy." It was right up there with "Tonto, Frankenstein, and the Caveman sing."

Beaker doing opera, for the win. posted by WCityMike at 1:42 PM on July 21, 2008
Awesome! I half-expected to be muppet rick-rolled, but was pleasantly surprised. I love the muppets and all their short little skits.
Just for the heck of it, here's the Danny Boy video EmpressCallipygos referenced, it fits well with the theme. posted by Vorteks at 4:39 PM on July 21, 2008
The Smithsonian currently has a fantastic Jim Henson exhibit that features puppets, story boards and design concepts for Muppets. And it's going on tour. posted by JustKeepSwimming at 5:32 PM on July 21, 2008
