Pinocchio - Derod's Version

It's late, but I just have to do this, assuming that I'm able to put down most of the content from derod's mouth, since it's way too... you be the judge. I've zero input on this, just waiting at the side to hear what kind of story can be told, and sniggering at the unbelievable content.

Derod: Once upon a time there was a man. Actually I also don't really know Pinocchio. He was a carpenter [cheoklet's note: no names were mentioned, since derod doesn't seem to know stories very well] Do you know that Jesus was a carpenter too? And there was the fairy godmother. And Pinocchio wanted to be a real boy! [Then he back tracked to mumble some stuff on the front part of the story]. The carpenter treated him like a son. I think he had a son then dunno what happened to him. Or did he have a son? Anyway, then Pinocchio got swallowed by a fish. Doesn't that sound familiar? Then he got into danger and the carpenter risked his life to save him. Eh... wrong... sorry sorry papa tell you wrong story. The carpenter got into danger and Pinocchio risked his life to save him and he became a real boy. All stories have a happy ending.

Hmm... Isn't Pinocchio most well known for the lies and long nose? Sigh...
