As a young child I was apparently terrified of Big Bird.
It all makes sense now.

Big Bird is the legendary Thunderbird.
9 0 ReplyI think most countries with their own sesame street have slightly different characters. We don't have big bird, we have the superior Pino.
8 0 ReplyGaribaldo from Brazil is the most… questionable one for those that haven’t seen it. https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Garibaldo

Humans have forward facing eyes and we were prey as well as predators.

Mr. Snuffleupagus.
2 0 ReplyHumans have never been anything more than coincidental prey. We've been killing animals much bigger and outwardly scarier than us back into prehistoric times. Hell, man, humans used to hunt mammoths with pointy sticks. We're apex predators.
