Elmo can carry an conversation

[angelicvampyre]

I thought you might like to know, had a non bird person in the house and my sister was telling them about Elmo and how he is like a 2 year old and then the little show off and I ended up doing this.

Elmo - Hello
AV - Hello
Elmo - out out out please
AV - fine you can come up but no flying out of the room
Elmo - ooooo good boy
AV - ok yours a good boy
Elmo - whatcha doing?
AV - just finding this number for this gentleman
Elmo - oooooo
*pause Elmo is fasinated with the guys hair piece, I could see that not ending well*
Elmo - nut?
AV - no you get your nut when you get dinner
Elmo - dinner?
AV - no you don't get dinner till after Anna finishes hers
Elmo - *progressively getting louder and louder* Anna... Anna... ANNA... ANNNNNNA
Anna - WHAT!
Elmo - nut?
Anna - fine have a nut you little s**t head (note to self get her to stop calling him that cause he will pick it up)
Anna hands Elmo a nut
Elmo - ta

I thought the guy was going to pass out, he was like "he talks to you, he knows what you are saying, he understands..." now I know that Elmo is responding to audio cues and also associates certain words with getting certain things.

He knows if he says out he will be allowed out. he knows if he says nut he will 9 times out of 10 get a nut. The thing I find funny is that he can't just say "Anna" he does the three or four repeat getting louder and louder I figure that is the way i call her when i am in the study.

Anyway thought you might get a laugh
