"The Internet is really, really great…for p***!" These catchy lines from Avenue Q, a beloved musical, have once again captured the internet's attention. With its humorous yet insightful take on how the internet is predominantly used, Avenue Q has become a timeless piece that resonates with many.

Avenue Q's song "The Internet is for P***" humorously addresses the realities of internet usage, highlighting how it has become a primary hub for adult content. The song's catchy lyrics, "It's got fast connection so I don't have to wait, for p***!" and "It's live and surfing at the speed of light, for p***!" are both memorable and reflective of the internet's evolution.

One viewer reminisced, "In fairly sure if they took p*** off the Internet, there would be one website left, and it would be called Bring Back the P***." This comment, while exaggerated, underscores the internet's heavy reliance on adult content.

Another fan commented, "Getting to see this live off-Broadway was worth the road trip, but wish I could've seen it with the original cast." Avenue Q's live performances have left lasting impressions on audiences, with its unique blend of humor and poignant social commentary.

Avenue Q's influence extends beyond its crazy take on internet usage. The musical's other songs, such as "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist," also draw attention to societal issues with a comedic twist. As one user noted, "Tiny octopus loves Avenue Q. 'Everyone's a little bit racist'. XD," the musical manages to address sensitive topics with a light-hearted approach.

Avenue Q's relevance continues to be evident as one user pointed out, "On a completely real note, if it wasn't for p***, we literally wouldn't have the internet of today." This comment highlights the significant role adult content has played in the development and growth of the internet.

The musical's legacy is further cemented by the fact that one of its co-writers also co-wrote the hit song "Let It Go" from Disney's Frozen. This co-writer is notably the only person to have achieved double-EGOT status, having won multiple Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony awards.

Avenue Q remains a beloved classic, often described as "Sesame Street for grownups." Its ability to blend humor with social commentary ensures that it will never, ever, let this die! Whether it's the memorable tunes, the insightful lyrics, or the comedic take on serious issues, Avenue Q continues to be a significant piece of modern musical theater.
