OYSTER BOY AND SUCH...

heeheehee... was just re-reading bits of tim burton's The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy.

damn funny. in a demented kind of way i guess.

like one of my favourites:

Robot Boy

Mr and Mrs Smith had a wonderful life.
They were a normal, happy husband and wife.
One day they got news that made Mr Smith glad.
Mrs Smith would be a mum,
Which would make him the dad!

But something was wrong with their bundle of joy.
It wasn't human at all,
It was a robot boy!

He wasn't warm and cuddly,
and he didn't have skin.
Instead, there was a cold, thin layer of tin.
There were wires and tubes sticking out of his head.

He just lay there and stared,
not living or dead.

The only time he seemed alive at all,
was with a long extension cord
plugged into a wall.

Mr Smith yelled at the doctor,
" What have you done to my boy?
He's not flesh and blood.
he's aluminium alloy! "

The doctor said gently,
" What i'm going to say
will sound pretty wild.
But you're not the father
of this strange-looking child.
You see, there is still some question
about the child's gender,
but we think that its father
is a microwave blender. ''

The Smiths' lives were now filled
with misery and strife.
Mrs Smith hated her husband,
and he hated his wife.

He never forgave her unholy alliance;
a sexual encounter
with a kitchen appliance.

And Robot Boy
grew to be a young man.

Though he was often mistaken
for a grabage can.

hahahahaha funny hor??? =)

first day back at school was killer.

so not used to sitting through lectures all over again. heh.

but at least got to watch casablanca for the first time at film lect.
