Today, I had to have a serious talk with my 30-year-old husband about why Sesame Street isn't a "soap opera." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I actually had to have a discussion with my boyfriend about why he should shower more than once a week. FML
Today, I had to have a serious talk with my boyfriend about his Miley Cyrus obsession. FML
Today, I actually had to explain to my husband why his habit of wiping his boogers off into our baby's hair has to stop. FML
Today, I was watching TV with my husband and my 5-year-old son. Everything was going fine until my son asked his father, “Why can’t mom know that you have another sweetheart?” FML
Today, my supervisor was watching a video of his son. I heard a voice in the background and asked if it was Elmo. It was his wife. FML
Today, my husband thought it would be acceptable to watch Breaking Bad on Netflix with my 4-year-old in the room. What happened to be the only line he picked up? "Well heil Hitler, bitch!" I found out from his preschool teacher. FML
Today, I walked in on my dad singing along to a song on Sesame Street. He tried to divert attention from what I'd just witnessed by angrily grilling me over "just barging in" and not respecting people's privacy. Apparently he forgot that we were in the living room. FML
Today, my wife has gotten into the habit of commenting on how much more attractive men in Latin soap operas are than me. When I suggested that an older character on the show looked like her mom, she started crying, and yelling about how hard the actress's life has been. FML
Today, I had to tell my 30 year-old boyfriend to take a shower, or else he won't for a week. FML
Today, my husband (M72) and I (F69) had yet another argument over all the time he spends away from home doing hobbies and volunteering. After an emotional conversation about my moving out, he said, "Well, if we are done talking about that, let me tell you what I got to do today." Biggest emotional slap ever. FML

Hey don't knock it till you try it. Elmo is actually in a relationship with Ernie behind Bert's back. It's some pretty intense stuff.

Tune in tomorrow to see if Miss Piggy and Kermit manage to smuggle their illegitimate love child out of the clutches of the evil couple Bert and Ernie who want to adopt that green piggy looking child. Clearly, OP, your husband is correct and you are wrong!...

Kermet and Miss Piggy are Muppets. The nerve of you....this mistakes is unacceptable.

I'm not a puppitist. I'm for the free mingling of all stuffed critters everywhere!!

If Jim Henson wanted Kermet chilling with Elmo, he would have made it so. We must respect his wishes and keep the shows separate.

soap op·er·a Noun A television or radio drama series dealing typically with daily events in the lives of the same group of characters. So, tell me how Sesame Street doesn't meet the definition of soap opera?

Note that it says "a television or radio DRAMA." Sesame Street is not a drama. And it doesn't really focus too much on the characters' lives, just letters and numbers and all that jazz.

dra·ma Noun 1.A play for theater, radio, or television. Don't worry, I noticed the word.

It's more educational than fictional, really. I don't see any storyline to it.
