The Last WTF?

[spacebabie]

I got a question for all y'all English folk. There is a movie coming out called "The Last Mimzy." I just recently learned, that in the U.K., Mimzy is a slang term for a part of the female anatomy.

How the hell did you go from Flimsy and Miserable to the Va Jay Jay?

I heard the title and I thought of Jabberwocky. I did not think of that.

Wow. That's a new one. As far as I've heard the story is loosely based on "Mimsy Were the Borogroves" which was a short story by Lewis Padgett first published in 1943 in "Astounding Science Fiction". It was subsequently adapted for radio on I think Dimension X.

Great creepy little story about when toys get too educational.

And yes, the title is a riff on "The Jaberwocky"
