It’s so strange to hear how the voice started out!

SHUT UP IT IS SO SUPER DUSTY IN HERE THOSE ARE NOT TEARS. JUST SUPES DUSTS.
If you’ve read Street Gang, you probably have mixed feelings about Elmo. However, everyone loves Kevin Clash. Everyone supports Kevin Clash. Go see this movie about Kevin Clash, I know I will.
I know Tumblr people are my people because they talk about Street Gang when people mention the new Elmo documentary.
