migraines and elmo?

migraines suck. more and more kids today are being diagnosed with them. what could cause such an epidemic? what is different about children of today vs children of yesteryear? the answer is obvious.

elmo.

coincidence? i think not. after spending countless hours listening to 'la la la la, la la la la, elmo's song' they have no choice but to experience searing head pain. not convinced yet? how about that careless coloring, absolutely mind numbing laugh and less than average iq - isn't that enough to drive a perfectly sane diaper wearing toddler over the edge? suppress some of those fuzzy red images and i guarantee they will come back to haunt you later in the form of an aura and medicine resistant migraines.

i don't see any other explanation.

bob on, elmo off, my friends.
