You guys can eat whoever you want, but leave Prairie Dawn alone. She my bitch.

By way of corroboration, he was nominated for an award for this [rap.](http://www.metrolyrics.com/lyrics/34792/Sesame_Street/Healthy_Food/)

Mr. Hooper’s out because he’s been [dead](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0498447/) for 20 years.

My vote goes for Big Bird and Snuffy. They’re large. Elmo would be a mercy killing, however.

And Cookie Monster is MY bitch.

Ah, that’s too bad. 'Cause, as much as I love Gonzo, he’d have to go first if Muppet Show characters were on the island. Then, I could have all his chickens.

You people realize that there was a sketch on an episode of the State that was all about killing and eating Muppets, right?

It was sick then, sick now. These are _Muppets_, people. Muppets!

Oh, so _you_ created it, eh? Heh. 🙂

It’s a great community, and it should be used more than it is.

Heh, yeah. There was a certain amount of Muppet deviancy at work there, but I lacked the creative energy to keep feeding it topics, especially for the time when it was just Rue and I “participating.” Too bad I’m in the middle of moving right now or I’d try to give it a shot in the arm.

Big Bird is a cefinite second. My stratagy is to first eliminate the competition, then prepare a nice Big Bird roast.
