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
