which one would you be?

So I'm obsessed with Elmo and I think I am most like him. :)

It's occured to me that more than a few people I know seem to have Muppet characteristics. Either physical features or personality traits.

So come on! Which Muppet do you think you are? :)





disclaimer: Yes I realize that Elmo is from Sesame Street but it all started with Jim Henson in the beginning. :)
NOPE!!!

    Ok...well if we're including sesame street characters in this - Cookie Monster has always been my favorite...and I'm probably most like him...cause...well...I like cookies. :o Out of the muppets cast I would have to say animal is my favorite...followed by the Dog that plays the piano (I think it was Ralph). But I like baby muppets the best :o

    Have you ever seen the person that actually does the voice for Elmo.
    Its a middle aged Black guy. Pretty funny.

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    One of those guys on the balcony, the one that's always on the left, he's a dead ringer for my Grumpy (grandad)! Exactly like him in looks and temperament! :D

    Gonzo because for a short whil when I was 16 people gave me the nickname gonzo. I have no idea why, but he is cool, so I'll be him.

    Yes!! He's been on TV here a few times. One of our night time tv show hosts Rove McManus is obsessed with Elmo and he's had Elmo and his "handler" on a few times. All of which I have on video of course!! :D

    When I was little, I wanted to be Rowlf the Dog, purely because of the piano.

    I think I have turned out more like Beaker. Oh well.




    :D

    EDIT:
    PS In Sesame Street I always wanted to be Count von Count, cos of his, well, er, organ.

    mmmmmm.....i just adore gonzo! he is the purple little guy with the hook nose, yes? and yea, i don't share any physical characteristics with him - hahaha - and i don't think any personality traits either...i just so appreciate his self-depreciation, perhaps we have that bit in common....and yea, he just seems on the fringe, and yet loved.....just love him! he's not one of the big characters, but he just has so much to him...great!


    oooooooooooo, seems a few people love gonzo...and grover! man, the muppets are great! :D
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow
