This two-year-old's favorite talking Elmo toy had a change of heart after getting a change of batteries. This particular toy is creepily called the "Elmo Knows Your Name" doll and can be hooked up to a computer and programmed to say certain phrases and a child's name. After getting re-juiced, this little Elmo had some choice words for his best bud James.
I always considered Elmo a sloppy drunk — that off-balance, giggle-me-overkill routine was a little telling. But it looks like he's done himself some good in the past few months. He's now singing, dancing, beatboxing, and even busting out the ol' jazz hands.
Last week, I called it— there was a certain twitch in his movements and look of insanity in his eyes. Elmo was up to something and that something was a transformation. Who's getting the last laugh now?
I'm not so sure about this alternative potty training method.

First of all, why are kids playing with fire? And what in the world could Elmo possibly have done to deserve such treatment- refuse a tickle? Oooh.
I wish this thing were really on the market; it would be a huge hit. Tickle Me Emo, Elmo's "tortured, angst-ridden teen cousin" complains about stuff your average pierced, tattooed, asymmetrical haircut sporting teen does: not being understood, having to "hurt himself to feel," and how much he hates you. It's a Chucky doll for the masses, and I want one now.
Every year there seems to be one toy that parents will get in a frenzy over to get for their tots. Remember the Tickle Me Elmo or the Nintendo Wii for 2007? This year Elmo is hot again with Elmo Live.
Oh, look — it's Tickle Me Elmo's littlest and furriest fan! Now, this little freako has a big fan...me, of course. (Seriously, though, what the heck is on this puppy's mind?)
Thanks, College Humor!
I think Tickle Me Elmo has a little too much influence with the toddler crowd. Since when is a game of golf this funny? Whatever the case, I'll have what he's having!
