As the first page quote indicates, they have discovered where people like them reside. Finding their places in the world, they choose to lurk among them.
 
Good snark being a precious inspirational resource, it's no surprise then that Statler and Waldorf have been appearing in other media. They've set up shop in [http://www.youtube.com/user/heckleu247 YouTube], as well as here on All The Tropes. Though not nearly as well known, this pushes them into the group of memetic characters who inhabit the wiki along with [[Trope-tan]], '''[[Brian Blessed]]''', [[The Toblerone]], [[Alice and Bob]], [[Report Siht]] and many others.
 
Oh by the way, do you know where they got their names from? The two largest hotels in New York City, the Statler (now the famous Hotel Pennsylvania, known for its world-famous phone number from the 1940s [[Glenn Miller]] tune of the same name, [+ 1 (212)] '''PEnnsylvaniaPennsylvania 6-5000'''), and the Waldorf (now the Waldorf-Astoria.) In [http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Astoria fact], Astoria is Waldorf's wife (who [[You Look Familiar|looks an awful lot like Statler]]). A little bit of trivia, exclusively for All The Tropes readers.
 
If you wish to have them visit a page, please bring it up in one ofat the discussionAll pagesThe (eitherTropes [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/remarks.php?trope=Main.StatlerAndWaldorf here]forums or foron the page in question)'s discussion page.
