Out Of This World Looky-Likey

My lovely other half proffered a bizarre lookalike while walking around Morrison’s the other day. On viewing one of the larger plastic bottles of milk (the one that weighs as much as a cow’s udder and is impossible to pour into a cup of coffee without dumping a sixth of its content, thereby rendering any hot beverage undrinkable) she confessed to being reminded of the alien’s head (from Alien).


Can’t see it myself, but I wonder just how terrified Ripley would be, scurrying towards the escape hatch, with six pints of semi-skimmed sloshing around behind her.

It would be a bit weird if John Hurt suddenly had six pints of white fluid pouring from his stomach! Would it be considered not so much scary as, in a bizarre and twisted way, erotic? Perhaps that's how aroused he was by Ripley! Who knows? Who cares?

I'm a very sick man, aren't I?

Whereas if Marc Almond had six pints of white fluid pouring from his stomach, it would be "just another day at the office" for his surgeon.
