Good Morning America wanted to engage their Twitter users by asking them about some of their favorite memes. Memes like tea lizard. You know, the one with Kermit drinking tea. Kermit. KERMIT THE FROG. As you might imagine, the internet's outrage was both glorious and swift.

It didn't quite break the Internet when Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy broke up ahead of their television show return, but it caused everything to slow down for a little bit.
And even though we didn't know the exact cause, we've had continued exposure to the unfolding drama. For instance, we all couldn't believe it when Kermit quickly rebounded.
And so it was with heavy hearts and uncomfortable awkwardness that the pair come on Jimmy Kimmel Live Sept. 21 to explain more about what led to the rift in this beloved couple.
So watch and maybe you can get a little more perspective how love can go wrong between two muppets.

Kermit the Frog has got a new boo.
After Kermit and Miss Piggy announced their split earlier this summer, Kermit told the press that he had a new love in his life. Well, now we finally have a peek at the happy couple.
Meet Denise, Kermit's girlfriend. She's also a pig, but seems to be a bit more chill than Miss Piggy.
As with most things, reactions were mixed on the Internet.
Kermit doesn't know any beautiful female frogs? His mama's a frog. His sister is a frog. Who taught Kermit to hate himself?

It was only a few weeks ago when we learned about the break up between Kermit the Frog and Ms. Piggy.
It turns out that split had been happening for quite some time and they only just recently made it public.
If this is news to you, then you'd better sit down as you read Ms. Piggy's announcement on Facebook. It's the same that Kermit circulated around Twitter.
Also, never forget that these are not real people and this is all shameless marketing for the upcoming Muppets tv show on ABC.
But there's no reason to be cynical, so play along if you'd like.

"Where were you when you heard about Kermit and Miss Piggy?"
This will be the question we all ask ourselves when discussing the unforeseen and public break up that announced the two muppets decided to take a one way trip to Splitsville, Aug. 4.
In a shocking Facebook move, Miss Piggy laid out the whole of the reason the famous couple chose to call it quits, thus invalidating all the close relationships in your own personal life.
Kermit delivered the public statement via Twitter:
Here is the official statement from @RealMissPiggy and myself regarding our relationship: pic.twitter.com/uHCSsokqWR

Now, we know what you're thinking. This could just be some publicity stunt for the sake of the upcoming Muppets show, for which Miss Piggy shamefully shills in her break up message. Maybe you're right and maybe love is not an impossible concept.
Twitter got cynical. If you can believe it.
i didn't realize Kermit and Miss Piggy were still together

It's just a rough day all around after hearing about Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale filing for divorce after 13 years of marriage. Of course, that is a little sadder since they were, you know, real people.
