Fun fact: Liberty Biberty was created by Jim Henson's Creature Shop, making him fair game for this sub. I feel like we should take advantage of that.

While that fact's fun level is subjective, the meme is top notch

You could also argue The Happytime Murders is also fairgame, especially since Jim Henson's own son directed it.

While that movie should be considered fair game, I doubt there's a frame in that shitfest that even this sub could make funny.

Plus, the backbone of this sub is turning wholesome children's content into edgy adult jokes. I can tell by the title alone that that movie is already "edgy and adult" and therefore is not fun to parody

The best part of not having cable or ads-included streamers is I don't know what the fuck this is.

I youtubed it.  I'd recommend if you're feeling angry about anything I'm your life that you do the same.  It will make whatever you're feeling angry about seem trivial in comparison.  People spent money and time making this shit.

After those stupid assholes already had Doug and the dipshit that kept saying liberty biberty

It’s amazing that there’s someone gainfully employed within that company and was like, “We’ve already got 2 really annoying commercial characters, we should make a third!”

I've been subjected to this companies numerous ads so many times before but never this one

I never thought I’d miss Limu Emu

u/jfarbzz 2d ago

Fun for material in this sub at least

u/KairoRed 2d ago

Wait aren't the FNAF movie animatronics made by the Jim Henson Company as well? We're really sleeping on those.

I want to fuck Liberty Biberty

it would've cost you exactly nothing to not say that

Okay but where’s the meme? You just posted an excerpt from his Wikipedia page

u/No-Objective9174 2d ago

It's like Rogu

u/bd_one 2d ago

The point of Rogu is that they don't dare overuse him tho

Don’t you ever disrespect rogu by putting his name anywhere near that testicular spawn of satan

I’m not American, what is this?

insurance company mascot

u/Nerdenator 2d ago

Most states (maybe all?) require you maintain an insurance policy if you plan on operating a motor vehicle on public streets. There's a ton of advertising for car insurance as a result and this is the latest marketing abortion to be forced upon the American people.

u/EXEC_MELODIE 2d ago

Limu Emu was the better mascot for sure

u/therealmintoncard 2d ago

I approve of this.

u/RexyMundo 2d ago

I was certain it was AI

u/naynaythewonderhorse 10h ago

It very clearly isn’t. I would suggest upping your AI literacy if you thought that it was AI.

Nothing 8 rounds of 30-06 can't take care of

u/res30stupid 2d ago

The Coca-Cola puppet at their store in New York is a Jim Henson Workshop product but I don't think we can use that.

Limu emu is better

Last Week Tonight also recently did a hit piece on him

Oh god, the ballsack has grown tired of being summoned by Little Red Riding Hood kicking trees.

You sly dog I almost skipped this post

u/Funkey-Monkey-420 2d ago

am i the only one that doesn’t hate liberty biberty? i mean, limu emu was better but he’s not that bad

16

u/CheatsySnoops 2d ago

It's whatever IMO, although the name is pretty dumb. They should've shelled out the cash for an emu puppet made by Jim Henson's Creature Shop instead.

u/Bubbly_Hat 2d ago

The original ad they did with that line (but the guy, not this thing) was funny, but like with pretty much all insurance campaigns, it was beaten into the ground, and it's even worse now.

u/A50redit 2d ago

At least it wasn't ai unlike most other insurance companies using AI for their commercials

u/Funkey-Monkey-420 2d ago

true, i can absolutely respect them for not using slop

u/DaChilidog 2d ago

He's almost as annoying as the Hump Day camel ads.

u/ChatotAbby 2d ago

I never even understood the hate for Liberty Biberty

3

u/Funkey-Monkey-420 2d ago

he’s purposefully incoherent, so he probably was just annoying. and of course annoying is the worst thing you can be on the internet

This cought me so off guard I laughed 10 minutes straight. Thank you, made my day

Holy shit, Disney really has no idea what to do with the Muppets.
