“Why is me a monster?”
This one caused crumbs to shoot out of my nose. From McSweeney’s: Cookie Monster Searches Deep Within Himself and Asks: Is Me Really Monster?
“Me was thinking and me just don’t get it. Why is me a monster? No one else called monster on Sesame Street. Well, no one who isn’t really monster. Two-Headed Monster have two heads, so he real monster. Herry Monster strong and look angry, so he probably real monster, too. But is me really monster?”
(Note: My definition of “funny” is “causes food to enter wrong passage and come out of nose”.) Me is friend of Carlo the baker, and Carlo name juancas for Juan Carlo and rickoise for Ricky, but me still have no cookie named after me.

Correct me if Im wrong but I dont seem to remember CM referring to cookies in the plural. It’s always ‘cookie’. He sees no division in cookies. To him all cookies are one.

What about Oscar the Grouch? Is he a monster? Does being grouchy equate to being a monster?
Anyway, I’m the girl you met in Manila FAME today. Sorry if I did not introduce myself properly. Although I did not meet you in one of our booths when you went around (we sell wicker bags), we’d like to thank you for passing by.
