Old news, dude.

I hadn't heard it! I must have been off the internest at the time.

If the box had contained Fig Newtons, I would've known who was behind it. ;)

Heh. I'd heard about Elmo, but not the raw meat.

Clearly these are signs of the apocalypse.

Between this story, and the experiences that lemmons and I have had with the fuzzy red guy, I'm starting to think that Elmo is the Anti-Christ.

I think you're onto something. Notice he's RED. Satan wears red, so this little demon is obviously in cahoots with him.

I thought about Hokker when I read that article--I know he's not down with Evil Elmo. Has the Red One given Erin trouble too?

NICE.

Not in the same way that Hokker did, but Erin had this toy called "Elmo in the Giggle Box." Basically, it was a sort of wind-up toy, and would giggle that high-pitched Elmo giggle when wound up. But it also had this other giggle, a much deeper-sounding giggle, that was never really explained. I think it was supposed to be Cookie Monster, as the box was vaguely CM-colored, but who knows.

The scary part is, though, that this thing would giggle, randomly at all hours of the day or night, without anyone even touching it.

Autumn suggested I throw it away, but I had to share the terror love and donated it so some other family could be possessed enjoy.
