He wants to buy some groceries, go to the zoo, and do a little light gardening.
Alas for poor Dillermand, at every turn, his penis gets in the way.
It snakes through the hedges, where his neighbor nearly trims it with a pair of clippers.
And asThe Guardianpiece notes, John Dillermands remarkable member is firmly asexual.
Its more like an ever-present, often mortifying pet.
Yes, I did watch severalepisodes.
Theyre only five minutes!
And however weird youre imagining this show is?
Its much weirder than that.
The penis looksquitedistinct against the otherwise stilted, broad-strokes animation.
It moves lithely and unpredictably around Johns world.
(Hes trying to buy a sausage, of course.)
Im sure theres lots of nuance Im missing inJohn Dillermand.
Happily, though, the story is pretty accessible with just the visuals.
Plus, Google Translate does well with the episode descriptions.
Then he can in turn fish with the diller.
Unfortunately, its just so embarrassing, because it just catches old junk.
And the others on the dock laugh so much at him that the diller pushes kids into the water.
But John saves the day with his diller-copter and gets the kids fishing ashore again.
All is well until John gets the right bite.
Thats really the message ofJohn Dillermand, at the end of the day.
Its also a story of hope.
Johns penis saves children from drowning!
