don't forget that he is exclusively motivated by having a fist up his bum

He's also canonically in the chain of causality that determines whether or not 9/11 happens in the Muppet universe. I don't know if that's a positive or a negative for the point being made.

That's hilarious do you have a source

2002's "A Very Muppet Christmas" is an "It's a Wonderful Life" style movie where Kermit temporarily wishes himself out of existence and is allowed to observe the resulting timeline. Shots of the Manhattan skyline in the main universe show no Twin Towers as expected, but there's a shot that clearly shows them in the background outside alternate Piggy's window. Wasn't an intentional bit of canon, just an little detail that arose from the set designers not realizing the Towers were in that old window backdrop they used, but the implication is hilarious

I wasnt aware kermit molests children?

Its just a yearly tradition.

As in, he's always around kids and has something up his ass when he's talking to them?

Kermit is not the antichrist and therefore cannot be the pope

They'd make him break off that thing with Miss Piggy.

Incidentally also the reason he can't be a rabbi.
