YMMV / Bertstrips

• Crosses the Line Twice: Each strip features a caption containing casual references to sex, violence, hate speech, drug use, and so on. That crosses the line once. Said captions are attached to out-of-context Sesame Street (or other Jim Henson-related media) screenshots, making it look like the caption is describing what's happening in the screenshot. That crosses the line twice and makes it funny.
• Memetic Loser: Bort (a re-vamped version of Bert's nephew Brad), is Bert and Ernie's child, and thus subject to all forms of abuse imaginable for the sake of Black Comedy.
• Memetic Mutation: "Ernie prepares to commit a hate crime"^Explanation A strip featuring Ernie holding a baseball bat and the caption has become a meme format, which is usually attached to screenshots of news articles, memes, ads, or other things that made someone angry.
