In short: In an unexpected twist of the childhood legend, Pinocchio, the wooden puppet who dreamed of becoming a real boy, has been found guilty of arson.
In a parody of a courtroom that made headlines in the imaginary town of Lost Childhood, Pinocchio, the puppet who once wished to become a real boy, was found guilty of arson. The judge handed down a rather unusual sentence: a lifetime ban on consuming alcoholic beverages to prevent his nose from catching fire again.
The beloved puppet allegedly set fire to a bar after drinking an excessive amount of flambéed whisky, according to testimonies presented during the trial. “When he lied about how many drinks he had consumed, his nose began to grow and caught fire,” said the bartender from that evening during the trial. Emergency services, called to the scene, managed to extinguish the fire before it spread.
Pinocchio, during his plea, tried to defend himself by claiming he had no incendiary intentions. “I just wanted to know what burnt wood tasted like,” he reportedly said while sobbing. Unfortunately, this attempt at justification was not accepted by the court, which delivered its verdict.
The sentence pronounced by the judge has sparked numerous reactions on social media. One Twitter user summarized the views of many netizens: “I guess Pinocchio now has another reason to tell the truth. Whisky would cost him too much anyway!” As of now, representatives for Pinocchio have yet to comment on the court’s decision.
