O Oscar!!!

"Don't bang on my can! Go away!"
(Oscar is made of Jumping Clay - Can is made of tin, coloured)


The Thrash-lover with the other Thrash-lover




According to Sesame Street Unpaved, "The character of Oscar was inspired by a nasty waiter from a restaurant called Oscar's Tavern in Manhattan. Jim Henson and Jon Stone were waited on by a man who was so rude and grouchy that he surpassed annoying and started to actually amuse both Jim and Jon. They were so entertained that going to Oscar's Tavern became a sort of masochistic form of luncheon entertainment for them, and their waiter forever became immortalized as the world's most famous
Grouch."
