Cookie Monster roundup
Cookie Monster was always my favorite Sesame Street character (and possibly my favorite children's character of all time, though I might have to give that one some more thought before I commit to it). Cookie is 100% pure id, and about as entertaining and endearing as could be imagined.
Last night I went on a Cookie Monster clip rampage on YouTube. In case you need a little Cookie to brighten up your day, here's what I found (embedded video doesn't work in RSS though, so head on over to the actual post):
Cookie Monster in the Library
This one contains everything I loved as a child: a library and Cookie Monster.
Cookie Monster Using a Commodore 64 (I think?)
And this one has everything I love as a supposed adult: Cookie Monster and computers! "I bet computer cookies taste a lot like oatmeal!"

Cookie Monster loves all life's little pleasures. Not just cookies, but also big soft fluffy cuddly pillows!
Yes, there's even more Cookie after the jump.
Disco Cookie
Tragedy strikes: "Me lost me cookie in the boogie music!"
Cookie Monster Poetry Jam
Cookie Monster's got attitude. He puts the twerpy Kermit in his place.

Proof that Cookie Monster has the right perspective on life. Just not for finding dropped cookies.
Cookie Monster Likes Furcuts
"A handsome monster. Oh! It's me!"

Only Cookie Monster is high-strung enough to perform this well under pressure:

Cookie Monster Likes Books
"Son of gun. Learn something new every day!"
Cookie Monster and the Moon
More evidence that Cookie Monster has impeccable taste. He also loves the night sky.
