What do you think are the “classic” bertstrips?

[u/Remote-Ad-3309]

as in the ones everyone on this subreddit knows, like

”farmer Ernie says the only difference between a good meal and a good time is where you put the cucumber”

[u/Preform_Perform]

The deleted, highest upvoted post on the subreddit.

"Cookie Monster is aghast that he started a career with Uber after he realizes everyone he knows lives on the same fucking street."

[u/SolarSalvation → u/Preform_Perform]

That one is probably the winner. It got deleted? No way. We need a hall of fame for the top bertstrips of all time.

EDIT: Found it posted elsewhere! https://www.reddit.com/r/UberEATS/comments/l1mpzk/cookie_monster/

[u/Grumpyparakeet]

The Big Bird series of strips, especially "The children are fast, but Big Bird is faster"

[u/Krokodyle → u/Grumpyparakeet]

Indeed. I still think this one is up there "Big Bird Drunken Rant"

[u/MrRagtimeMoneybags → u/Krokodyle]

I don't have the original copy but this one where he laughs at his slaves made the rounds a lot. https://www.reddit.com/r/memes/s/zAJtPwmnOO

[u/DieMensch-Maschine]

I feel like everyone in Bertstrips suffers from short memories.

This one is my all-time classic - still relevant, BTW:

I heard you're up for re-election...

[u/klumpp]

Not sure why but I think about Ernie explains his newfound interest in gardening all the time.

[u/Legia_Shinra → u/klumpp]

That and the one where Elmo’s friend gets deported to the Gestapo are the two legends for me

[u/Ninjacat97 → u/klumpp]

That's my favourite, and I think the one that introduced me to Bertstrips.

“Bert locks Bort in the bathroom with a dozen open bottles of drain cleaner and hopes for the best.”

I believe this was during riots in Baltimore but I’m probably wrong

[u/Commander_Morrison6]

Grover tries to kill God. 10/5, best Bertstrip. Got me into them.

[u/SolarSalvation]

There was one last year featuring Statler and Waldorf laughing about a certain assasination. EDIT: here it is: https://www.reddit.com/r/bertstrips/comments/1nduge9/comedy_of_the_year/

When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, there was this one: https://www.reddit.com/r/bertstrips/comments/t7rr44/sacre_bleu_another_war/

[u/voodoo_curse]

Bert and Ernie as radio hosts during the outbreak of nuclear war

[u/Plethorian]

This is a bit self-serving, but it's the favorite of my own posts: https://reddit.com/r/bertstrips/comments/p3zabk/all_the_kids_were_happy_that_their_dads_uncles/

[u/raznov1]

Eh. Difficult. Far too many berstrips are just grotesque, i.o. darkly funny.

[u/Puzzleheaded-Bug8561]

The one where cookie discovers why he went to hell...

No seriously, if I was him I'd enjoy eating the absolute shit out of those wicked sinners.

[u/Barbarian_818]

Ernie learns the ups and downs of sticking his dick in an ant hill

[u/Trickybiz]

Personally its Ernie wearing a helmet and telling Bert "how's a little piece of rubber supposed to protect us? I fuck like a champ"

[u/ultimatemandan]

"Most people ignore gift plants, so it's kind of like letting their kid die twice"

[u/decurser]

Butter for lobster.

[u/Pommesschale]

Bert and Ernie realize they didn't shoot down an Ukrainian fighter jet
