I was today years old when I realized this thing has a name and it is called "Hellmo".

I always called it Hellmo, but the meme is actually called "Elmo Rise."

Hellmo is way better imo

There is also an old Jhonen Vasquez (Invader Zim author) comic where he does a bit about a "tickle me hellmo". I always think about it when this Elmo meme comes up

Stucco and food coloring, cause then the kid gets to keep it afterwards.

Hellmo, making sure that the kid knows this is peak life right here. Someone feeds you, someone wipes your ass. But tomorrow, well tomorrow you’re on your own. Hellmo welcomes you.

Nah. Babies can't play video games, eat pizza, or have sex. Being a baby sucks.
