YMMV / My Uncle Oswald

• Funny Moments:
  There was a street lamp outside the Shaw house, and when I glanced back I saw Mr. Shaw capering about on the sidewalk under the gaslight, white-skinned all over save for a pair of socks on his feet, bearded above and bearded below as well, with his massive pink member protruding like a sawn-off shotgun from the lower beard. It was a sight I shall not readily forget, this mighty and supercilious playwright who had always mocked the passions of the flesh, himself impaled now upon the sword of lust and screaming for Yasmin to come back. Cantharis vesicatoria sudanii, I reflected, could make a monkey out of the Messiah.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: The Nobel Sperm Bank was founded much later than what Woresley and Oswald designed.
• Write What You Know: Dahl was himself a notorious womanizer who canoodled with heiresses, actresses, and other high-status ladies. The character of Uncle Oswald straddles the line between "poking fun at his own horniness" and "wish fulfilment."
