Life is like a...

Pighead

Pighead's mind was in a particularly deep and intellectual place yesterday and decided that it was time to turn off Jeremy Kyle and his lowest common denominator rubbish talk and put on something a bit more thought provoking and high brow. Ended up picking up Forrest Gump as had never seen it before. It was an inspired choice. What a movie. One particular thought provoking moment came when Forest came out with this classic quote:

"Mama always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."

Wow! That line absolutely knocked Pigheads socks off. Stopped the DVD, rewound, and played it again and again. It was probably the most inspirational quote Pighead had heard since Jack in the film Titanic shouted out "I'm the king of the world"

Anyway the film finished and that classic box of chocolates quote was still fresh in the mind. Miss Piggy came home a while later. It was time to impress her.

Miss Piggy: What do you want for dinner Pighead?
Pighead: "Mama always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."
Miss Piggy: What the hell are you talking about ya big eejit? I've just asked you what you want. If you tell me, I'll make it and therefore you WILL know what you're gonna get. Besides most boxes of chocolates come with the little paper that tells you what kind they are. You're momma was a spanner Pighead.
Pighead: How dare you say that. Don't insult Moma just because you don't understand the quote you wench.

Stormed out of the house and cursed the Gods. "Why did you have to make Pighead so intellectually superior to most other people? They just don't understand"

Anyway, still inspired by Gump, Pighead started thinking about other things that life is like and decided that:
"Life is like a walk in the park. Good in parts but rubbish when you stand in dogshit"

What quote do you think sums life up?

Well said T-K-O. Indeed it is. If only women were as smart as you and Pighead. Actually life is sometimes like a silly woman. Great on the outside but not so great when you dig a little deeper.

I find life is more like a bar of chocolate. It's too short and only when you're close to the end of it do you realise you should have savoured it more.

It's a good quote alright Lizard but would probably fall down if somebody was to give you one of these
After eating it you'd probably say "Life is like a toblerone bar. It's only after you've finished it, vomited and hurt the hell out of the roof of your mouth that you realise you should have stopped half way through."

No offence to your mate Cherokee Expression, Ivy but that's a rubbish quote. A maximum of three people rejoiced when Pighead was born. The rest of the world was oblivious to the fact. And when Pighead cried for the first time he was met with a swift "Shut the fcuk up Pighead, I'm trying to sleep" from his mother. Not much rejoicing there to be honest.

Life is like a crying baby, loud, annoying and full of tears.

one of my favourite lyrics though,

"life is a rollercoaster
and we are not strapped in
maybe we should hold with care
but my hands are busy in the air"

That quote is now redundant in modern society..all one needs to do is look under the lid to know what type of chocolate you're getting

Life is like being in a coma, most of the time your fate is completely up to someone else.

Ah yeah Wilde had some good uns alright. Pighead loves one of his lesser known gems "Life is like a pair of Beruthiel's underpants. Warm, protective and extremely comfortable."

Right. In my immediate environment I have...

A pen, a pink post-it pad, a delivery docket, plastic cutlery, a keyboard and some masking tape.

What karazee philosopies can I come up with?


Life is like a delivery docket. You never know what you have until it's on a piece of thin crinkly yellow paper. eh no, thats not it.

Life is like plastic cutlery. It does the job for the moment but doesnt compare to the ones made of better quality. Nein!

Life is like a post - it note. After a while it loses it's stickiness and no one pays attention to me anyway.

Oh I give up.

Life is the name of the game,
And I wanna play the game with you.
Life can be terribly tame,
If you don't play the game with two.

Yeah life is a go-as-you-please

And I need some place to go with you.
Life can be oh-such-a-tease,
If you don't play the game with two.

Life is a tale,
told by an idiot,
full of sound and fury,
signifying nothing.

As a wise wise woman once sang:

Especially when I'm in the park
When there's no one else around
Oh I get the shivers
I don't wanna see a ghost
It's the sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast
Watch the evening news

Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Life.


So true. So very very true.

I skipped page 3 on this thread but would still have used that quote just as another ( below ) has used it to quote someboby else . I have more important things to deal with than being embarrassed by anything but if I am to be ejit of the day on this thread so be it

What quote do you think sums life up?

The actual quote in the book from which the film is adapted is:

''Being an idiot is no box of chocolates...''

Which makes considerably more sense.

My favourite quote is of unknown provenance, and is the philosophy by which I live.

''Live simply, love generously, speak kindly''

Its more of an aspiration than a reality though!
