Imagine This Kid at Saw V!

Remember - as this child is hiding behind his friend, clawing at his hair, and then pounding his own head with a stool - that he's at a freaking puppet show! Let's keep him away from Jigsaw as long as we can. I don't think he (or those around him) would survive it!

Toy Box: Muppet Whatnot Workshop

It is always an exciting afternoon when the FAO Schwarz holiday catalog arrives. While I may still be planning my Halloween activities, it is never too early to sit down and thumb through the book of extravagant toys for children of all ages. This year's edition was filled with massive stuffed animals and a $10,000 military ATV, but what really caught my eye was the new Muppet Whatnot Workshop that is due to open next week.

You know the extra Muppets you see when watching Sesame Street or old versions of The Muppet Show on YouTube? The ones that are in the background and rarely have any big lines? Those are Whatnots and now you and your lil one can work together to create a custom puppet of your own. To see how the process works, and how much this creation will cost,

After choosing a body, eyes, nose and hair style, you can select the appropriate clothing and submit your design online. Approximately a month later, your personal Whatnot arrives in the mail. The kits ($130) will be sold exclusively through FAO Schwarz and include reusable stickers of each of the design options, as well as a gift card to cover the cost of the design, creation and shipping of your puppet.

While the price may sound a bit steep, the idea of having a Muppet of my own has me actually putting this on my holiday wish list.

What the Hell Are Kids Watching?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but pointing is rude, no? So why is this creepy ass puppet on The Wiggles explicitly instructing our impressionable tykes to point their fingers - up, down, every damn place? (Then there's the question of where this puppet is pointing exactly - down where?) Sesame Street may get a bad rep, but at least Big Bird and the gang aim to teach our kids a little more than how to hold their own at a rave. The Wiggles are seriously trippin'.

Junk in a Box: Puppet-Style

GiggleSugar — Fri, 07 Dec 2007 07:00:00 PST

The same guy who brought you the puppet version of David Hasselhoff drunk now presents the puppet version of the year-old holiday classic, "D*ck in a Box." Mixing puppets with sexy time is so wrong, and it only gets worse when you get a glimpse of JT's puppet incarnation- it pretty much sucks the sexy right out of the singer. Why, puppet master, why?!

Lord Of The Puppet Strings

GiggleSugar — Mon, 27 Aug 2007 09:00:00 PDT

Elijah Wood made an appearance on "Yo Gabba Gabba" to teach kids how to do a little jig he calls "The Puppet Master." It resembles something one might do in a group aerobics class, which isn't all too strange. However, there's something about that one-eyed critter in the back row that gives me the heebie-jeebies and makes me feel a little sorry for Elijah. At least we know his success hasn't gone to his head yet.

A Fake PSA Fit To Be A Real PSA

We've seen some darn creepy PSAs on the this site, which is why I initially mistook this for the real deal. Thankfully, it's not. I'd never do anything endorsed by this depressed looking dude and his half-dressed, oversized puppet, but I might recommend he make an appointment with a good dentist! And maybe get a day job when he's done.

WTF?!

To get kids to shy away from pornography, a porn patrol group staged this puppet show involving "Pete the Porno Puppet" and, of all people, Ron Jeremy-- porn star extraordinaire. In the show, Ron instructs Pete to keep his puppet paws off of dirty mags and vids and although Ron seems sincere, he uses big words that kids won't understand and drops the word "sex" as many times as possible. I don't know about you, but I'm confused...

David Hasselhoff Drunk: Puppet Edition

Did the world really need a puppet version of the depressing video of The Hoff eating a burger off the floor? (Define the word "need.")
