Bert and Ernie Aren't Gay, OK?



Of course Ernie is the bottom...

Ok, not really. But seriously, some people on the internet are very obsessed with creating gross images with these two kids faux doing it.

Lately, people have been pushing gay marriage...to the point of creating an online petition urging Sesame Street to marry Bert and Ernie. I guess some people forget they're supposed to be young kids...yikes. Anyhoo, here is Sesame Street's response to the hullabaloo (shut up):
"Bert and Ernie are best friends. They were created to teach preschoolers that people can be good friends with those who are very different from themselves.
Even though they are identified as male characters and possess many human traits and characteristics (as most Sesame Street Muppets™ do), they remain puppets, and do not have a sexual orientation."
Can you imagine being the person who had to write that? I would be so bitter that I actually have to thoughtfully compose such a stupid thing.

People are the worst.

In other news, so are these images.

I guess Rubber Duckie wasn't the one...
