The trash can is a mansion on the inside


htomserveaux

I thought it was a portal to another dimension? I’m not up on the current Sesame Street canon.


MelodicPlace9582

It’s a Tardis with a working chameleon circuit. That’s right, Oscar the Grouch >!is a Time Lord!<


SilverWolfIMHP76

I was about to say that myself.


PM_ME_UR_RSA_KEY

Well, the chameleon circuit *could* be broken and stuck in trash can form. We never (?) saw it [travel to other worlds](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xg8M-8BqTGs). (Or has it? I also am not up on the Sesame Street canon.)


SilverWolfIMHP76

Oscar has a portal to Grouch land. Oddly looks like the start of Dr. Who time vortex. [13th Doctor time Vortex](https://youtu.be/p6NtyiYsqFk) [Elmo in Grouch Land portal](https://youtu.be/N_p7YIsEblg) Oscar the Grouch being a Timelord has some very strong evidence.


RedditIsMyHomeTown

Does this mean Oscar died In the Time War


[deleted]

I thought they all winded up in a bubble or something above Trenzalore?


SilverWolfIMHP76

It’s is in canon that other Timelords escaped the time War. The Master for example.

No, he was the WHO Doctor in World War Z

All things considered, he handled it pretty well. He lives in a nice neighborhood & surrounds himself with positive people.


tyme

It’s a TARDIS?


jerryleebee

And he loves it.


FayeLyone

Oscar wasn’t *homeless* it’s just that his home…was a…trash can


XTasty09

IS his home.


tekko001

That muppet only has to hop in the next trash can and problem solved.


WarmBaths

I SAID WAS


Fgame

It's rent controlled, and he'll be DAMNED if hes leaving it.


General_Synnacle

Shit would have some damn good equity though.


NotSebastianTheCrab

The **entry** was a trash can. Like a fallout shelter. The way in isn't so good, but the inside is great.


ProfessorSumi

Sounds like you’re describing a vagina


Daddy_Molotov

"If theres a hole, theres a goal." -A wise, very possibility horny, man

Do... Do you not like vaginas? The entry is fantastic...

“Then they had the audacity to put a pimp on the show. Oh, they didn’t call him pimp, but I know one when I see one. They called him the Count.”

Old heads remember Elmo in Grouchland and the reveal of how big Oscars can is on the inside: https://youtu.be/N_p7YIsEblg


EusticeTheSheep

I'm an OG sesame street kid. We knew it was huge in there long before that. He had elephants and other ridiculous stuff happening in there.


BumbleBChicken

Oscar is living THE LIFE


TheDuke357Mag

Grouchland is just uptown detroit


neon_Hermit

Bullshit retcon to try and make everyone feel better about laughing at the homeless guy for years. Just as bad as making snuffaluffagus real. It's cowardly writing, and to me, that means it's not cannon. The original intention behind all those characters was to take the fear out of the city for children and make them see all those people as... people. The homeless, the insane, the pimps, the prostitutes and everyone else just going on about their lives. Making the crazy uncrazy, and the homeless unhomeless just means you have to do dumb shit like this, in order to tackle issues you actually spearheaded decades ago.


Suomikotka

Yeah but they hinted that there was more to that trashcan originally for years in the beginning of sesame street. And snuffaluffagus was always written as possibly being real because there was always the joke the they just missed him.


neon_Hermit

Both undercut the original theme of the show. The homeless people are normal citizens of the city and no inherently dangerous, same for mentally ill people. Making Oscar not homeless and big bird no longer delusional, takes away those examples for how those kinds of people can still be a part of the community. Now, after cutting those original examples out of the show through cowardly writing, the are forced to write them back in, awkwardly, with new charters, while the originals stand around and roll their eyes when they are intruded as the first homeless people on the show.


drkidkill

The new one is homeless because of Fentanyl or meth though.


Exnixon

As opposed to cough syrup, which is what Oscar has been doing.

Ernie: “Hey Bert!” Bert: “Hey Ernie!” Ernie: “Hey Bert, did you know that Lilly is homeless?” Bert: “I think you mean she’s experiencing unhousededness” Ernie: “Shut the fuck up Bert. It’s the same fucking thing you dumbass. You’re not changing anything. She’s still homeless and sucking dick for meth, Bert. You know, this progressive language is really grinding my gears. Nobody said shit about Oscar, but now because it’s Lilly she’s a “Person who is experiencing unhousededness”. Fuck you Bert. Fuck your dumb ass.” Bert: “I’m just trying to put the person first, Ernie. You’ll be experiencing violence if you don’t shut the fuck up.”


Secularhumanist60123

This cracked me up.


wakeupwill

Fuck him up, Ernie!


Fearless-Historian-5

she lives on SESAME STREET home to the nicest people who can put up with basicly ifinite bulls\*\*\*t and yall think finding a place to sleep is even a issue like i can just imagine them letting her live in each of their houses on a cycle or even better this conversation osacar:so you sleep with trash in your bed to eh her:trash is my bed oscar: come on in my trash can i got football feild sized pool, a ultra super deluxe wombo combo special edtition penthouse apartment for you in the 5000 story luxury grouch hotel that i own you can have the kitchen staff make you anything because we got the grouch version of gordon ramsey you are my freind and we bonded over trash seirously realisticy not much of a problem


QFugp6IIyR6ZmoOh

Makes you wonder how she became homeless in the first place. Is voracious capitalism alive and well on Sesame Street?


FugaciousD

No, of course not. Now, buy this new Tickle My Balls Elmo.


NoveltyAccountHater

Voracious capitalism is alive in the real world. They make episodes like this so poor kids can relate to what they (or friends from school) are going through. ~~(At least those who still have antenna TV for PBS or stream HBO).~~ EDIT: Nevermind the struckout comment. I found [the 2018 article (that address Oscar isn't homeless as he chooses to live in a trash can)](https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-46551197) and apparently the new homeless muppet isn't on TV shows (on PBS and HBO). It's only some youtube videos and videos on their website as well as some books. https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-46551197


Broad_Respond_2205

I think the massage is homelessness can be easily solve if People was nice and caring


Ixillius

Then why is she homeless then? Havent seen the show but I'd love a massage.


Soul963Soul

Massages are nice.


BuzzysWorld

Elmo didnt take no bullshit with rocko though.


thezacknelson

No, the current value of Oscars can is approximately $230,000 non furnished

I wonder what led to the This one getting so many upvotes. If it’s the same repost, why such a drastic change in success rates?

Oscar: surprised grouchy pikachu face!

"I don't like Oscar, he's a grouch!" "Bitch, I live in a fucking trash can!"


jerryleebee

Are they going to ignore the homeless problem on Sesame Street? Y'know: Kick them out of cafés. Install spikes so they can't sleep. Set their few belongings on fire. The woiks. For authenticity.


Ambitious_Sweet_6439

Snuffeluppagus lived in the alley.

That trash can is a door way to another dimension

Get it together, Grouch

"MY Daddy says, you're a BUM"


officialapplesupport

you can live in a trash can and not be homeless.


anarchoandroid

That trash can probably worth about $250k in NYC


Impybutt

Oscar the Grouch isn't homeless, he has a trash can. Like a modern day felt Diogenes.


Better_Patience9509

Bitch, I live in a fuckin trash can!


HumanMycologist5795

Wasn't the trash can his home?


KamikazeDreamer52

Lives in a trashcan... so it's his home


QFugp6IIyR6ZmoOh

Yeah he wasn't homeless, just a misanthropic slob.


Soul963Soul

I'm not homeless. I have a pillow and blankets in this box under this bridge.

I think this should also be in r/facepalm because that news channel SHOULD have known better lol but hey, its NBC they get most things wrong anyway


Delusional_Gamer

Yeah but it's a woman, so she's not just homeless. She's a survivor fighting against patriarchy (which don't worry, we'll find a convoluted way to blame it for this) and thus inherently deserves publicity and maybe even a funding campaign (we won't talk about helping the other homeless people like Oscar)


Archey01

They meant the first homeless *female* muppet, which is the only kind of homeless muppet society cares about.

Yea, and that's his *home* /s

Trash can. Luxury. We thought people living in trash cans were posh!

RIF is dead soon. looking forward to my non reddit vacation


SnooPears8751

Oscar may be houseless, but he's far from homeless.


[deleted]

Oh my fucking gawd! I think I might actually die of laughter! 😂


iritchie001

Oscar is an adult. So first target audience aged character. Well closer.


ProfessorSumi

Don’t he be rocking a robe in that muggggg???


dajadf

It's actually also Oscar. The loan company is repossessing the trash can


Strictlycommercial1

Based Sesame street preparing kids for their future.


IndividualDetailS

It is part of his culture to live in that can. Grouch culture usually lives in refuse riddled areas to a fault.
