As often discussed across the internet and also right here on Autostraddle Dot Com, the muppets are a little bit gay, or at least a little bit weird, and a lot of gay people are weird, so there is an important intersection there. Anyhow speaking of things that are important, which of this legendary band of adorable creatures created by Jim Henson is most near and dear to your felt heart? Ladies and gentlepeople: which muppet are you?!?!?!?!

I feel surprisingly seen for a queer website quiz on ‘which muppet are you’. I also have always found Kermit’s earnestness mildly annoying which says a lot about me 😂
You’re the friendliest frog in the pond, full of big ideas and always so nervous about getting everything right and making sure everyone is happy! But don’t worry we love you and you’re doing great.
the muppets always make me feel seen! i am also a kermit tho
I never watched the original Muppets show (I saw their movies as a kid) and watching it now it still holds up so well. If you want something to make you smile before you go to bed, I highly recommend it!
And yeah, me being Fozzie didn’t surprise at all :)
i was watching them this week while working on this quiz and they do! i find the muppets so comforting
I’m Statler and Waldorf!
“Do you sometimes have cantankerous opinions? Sure. But you only give so much feedback because you care so much and although your cricitisms sometimes suggest otherwise, it never stops you from turning up to support. As Community Elders you have a lot to impart upon all the baby queers.”
As a slightly extroverted HSP, this sounds legit:
“You’re the one and only endlessly iconic daredevil Gonzo the Great! You’re creative and weird and entirely yourself and there is nobody else out there like you. Sometimes it can be lonely to be so unique, but whenever you find the right birds of a feather, you’re first in line to flock together.”
I wanted Beaker so bad…
Got Statler and Waldorf…
Honestly, accurate 😂
hahahaha
Beaker. That makes perfect sense.
“You’re Beaker! No matter how many times life tries to blow you up, you always survive!!! MEEP MEEP MEEP MEEP MEEP MEEP”
The truest line I’ve ever gotten from one of these quizzes.
No fair including more than one queer stereotype I embody (how did I ever get through grad school sitting in chairs this way?)
it’s hard to earn an advanced degree with your feet on the floor like a normal person, it requires advanced sitting
heck yeah I got scooter. I *am* a vaguely humanoid creature who fixes things
When you’re a Cookie Monster/Pisces muppet sign but the Scooter/Virgo rising comes across HARD in the quiz. 😭
Look, I accept being Gonzo, but I wanted Fozzie.
they are somewhat adjacent i think, like ambitious performers in search of the proper audience
I got Gonzo! Yes I am most definitely creative & weird & entirely myself, too…
This quiz is on time for me because I’m seeing a cute couple right now (plz clap) and I’ve come to realize they’re basically like if Bunsen and beaker were hot queers
i feel like i can envision them in my mind from this description only
1) i feel like your vision here is prob highly accurate 2) like. they’re curious! they do experiments! the shorter one is slightly bossier and has glasses, the taller one’s got that spiky hair! and if something explodes might freak out without using their words for a minute before grabbing the fire extinguisher and handling it and then everything’s fine 3) i got gonzo, which, LOL at gonzo being their erotic third 4) truly long live this website for this entire train of thought
Waldorf and Stadler, this is correct.
“You’re Fozzie Bear! You live to laugh, or more accurately you live to make other people laugh! You’re not the most self-aware muppet, but you are the most optimistic and the most huggable, and the room brightens up the moment you arrive.”
The second I chose “I do improv” I knew I was done for. Can’t say it isn’t accurate!
Thought I was Gonzo and in fact I am, so all is right in the world! Very much looking to the AS readership results breakdown for this one 😄
Scooter. (If you expand the options to all Jim Henson’s characters, I’m probably most Grover– earnest, try-hard, neurotic.)
Fozzie Bear. It’s pretty true; I do love to make ppl laugh and I am huggable. I guess no one Muppet really captures my multitudes. Maybe we all contain all Muppets…
I thought I’d be Miss Piggy and yet I got Kermit. Probably my energy is not high femme enough lol.
