Kermit's froghood baffles me, mainly due to the neck frill. I was down a Muppet history rabbit hole recently and realized that he was originally just named "Kermit", and didn't become "Kermit the Frog" for some years. So he was probably designed as a frill-necked lizard of some kind and got retconned into a frog. Mystery solved, right? Well no, because then I realized he got the frill the same time they started calling him a frog.

I was so distraught I turned to Muppet Wiki, which it turns out has an entire section on his collar. It's an article of clothing. 😐

I always hated his pupils.

I don't know, I think I've seen a frog it might look like more than Kermit...

Yeah yeah, rules and conventions, blah blah blah. Some rules need to be broken.

This was 9 years ago, though. What's the statute of limitations on good news?

the platonic ideal doesn't exi-

Kermit de Frog

The person who found him marked the event by saying, "Hi ho! Kermit the Frog here"
