Classmate calls Piggy "Trashy!"

[GonzoLeaper]

Hey,
I just had a weird Muppets reference in class today that I thought I'd share. It was in one of my library science classes and a student was talking about characters she could portray for a storytime for children. She mentioned that one of the characters she dresses up as is "trashy, but not loose".
The teacher then suggests that she dress up like Miss Piggy. She noted that she's a wonderful character. "She's trashy, but not loose."
I was trying to hold back laughter over this!

"Trashy? WHAT? Hi-yaah!!!"

 

[Vic Romano]

Trashy? Like what, go around flashin' people and flirt with married men?

 

[D'Snowth]

Can you really get away with saying "loose" around here?

 

[Kimp the Shrimp]

i agree that this is not approrite for a Family Form

 

[GonzoLeaper]

Well, ordinarily I wouldn't say that word either, but I was quoting directly from what was said in class. But I should have thought of that before. Sorry about that.

Okay, I know we aren't supposed to say it but here i go without saying it. In the BBC special I Love The Muppets Florence Henderson does address Miss Piggy as a uh well, ya know. lol.

Vic, trashy like leaving your date to get to a cheap commercial perhaps? (TMM)

 

[BEAR]

Miss Piggy is not, nor has ever been, "trashy."

I have never seen Ms. Piggy as Trashy or the other thing...........

 

[Barry Lee]

I don't believe she is trashy, she is a well yea, why? Well, she ALWAYS wants attention from the men, especially in certain TMS episodes. A great example of her being, well, yea is in the Fantastic Miss Piggy Show where she plays a southern bell with Goerge Hamilton.
