Too Much A-Do About Ethan's Gift

My future bro-in-law is really starting to get on my nerves.


There will be a little Christmas luncheon at his place on Christmas Day itself, and he has been sending text messages to Joshie and his elder sister, telling us what to buy for his little son.


Now, I do adore baby Ethan and buying the little one gifts would be my pleasure.


But bro-in-law says we should buy Thomas & Friends for little Ethan. And he does not say that only once. He has been sending reminder text messages to Joshie over the past two days, even specifying which model to buy.

Mutants.

URGH!


Telling us once is enough. Not repeatedly.


I know sharing a wishlist with friends and family allows convenient gift-shopping. But please stop with the endless reminders to buy Thomas & Friends!

What's so nice about Thomas & Friends? It is a freaking man-train hybrid. It is a monster!


This fella is super protective of little Ethan. His son is not allowed to be exposed to TV shows or games which involves fighting, monsters and car racing. Even The Incredibles is deemed dangerous.


Sheesh! He has tougher guidelines than the Singapore's censorship board dah!

Yet despite that, he approves Thomas & Friends. It should be classified as a monster. Trains don't have human faces. Humans don't have bodies of a train. Thus it should also be banned along with The Incredibles.

If my future bro-in-law sends another such text message, I'll go right out and get a Living Dead Doll for the boy.

I bet the boy will absolutely love it.
