Press play: "Sesame Street" defines marriage

Some of us may have differing opinions on the definition of marriage, but leave it to "Sesame Street" to clear up this disparity. If only the whole world was as insightful and optimistic as this classic children's TV show. Yay for Grover!

    Simple and so true. If only everyone felt the same when it comes to defining a marriage.

    "it's scary ... when they twist their tails lol"

    Ok, in my opinion (witch is only an opinion) the marriage have nothing to do with twisted situations. I just read an answer of "him" to an email on "her" witch seems that is for another person but is not about another person, and they both run around their own tails witch are different tails but almost similar (or similar, who knows? lol), without take it what they want (defining a marriage) between two tails???!!! It is not simple but extremely simple what they do: they do twisted situations. They have other choices of course, but they chose twisted choices: "let's run around our tails to see if we can catch our tails"... when the answer is always simple. To a marriage proposal, there can't be a twisted answer: "yes and/or no", but "yes" or "no". If "no", both lose in both cases. If yes, the future can tell, but for sure, if no both lose in both cases. It's simple. The answer is always simple. But, when both think with their tails, then they twist their tails, because this is what tails do, until this situation become a matter of ambition between two tails.

    It is not what I understand by marriage, but some tails, do!

    lol

    Fiction: I too am a bit confused.....

    I love Grover. End of story. I am not going to go and try to marry a hand puppet as it cannot kiss me or hug me or be my friend (unless I have a great imagination) but I love him. And that little boy hit the nail of marriage right on the head. Right on!
