SO. I just got back and really there are like, comments and book clubs and comic-reading marathons and card-deck-building shit I oughta be doing cus I'm vaguely behind on everything, but um, it's my first Real Day of Vacation, so instead, I crashed out and started watching The Muppets on YouTube (as you do).
When I was a kid this show was one of the best things in the world. And honestly, I find it hard to say that as an adult, I have changed my opinion. It's silly, it's surreal and it teaches us the best ways to deal with temper tantrums.
And YouTube has all the best scenes clipped for rewatching and instant gratification! It truly is the nexus of my easily-entertained childhood and easily-distracted adulthood.
Plus, probably, I think the fact that these are my favourite scenes tells you everything you need to know about me...
The Muppet Glee Club sing Temptation
(Really, it's worth sticking around until they actually get to the song...)
